Charles Spurgeon Commentary Matthew 28:19-20

"Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." — Matthew 28:19-20 (ASV)

Baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:

There is teaching again. It is as much the duty of the Christian to teach after baptism as to teach before baptism; he must always be teaching. Hence believers are always to be learners, since Christ would have his servants always to be teachers: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. We are not to invent a gospel; we are not to change, and shift, and cut, and shape it to meet the advancement of the age; Christ's command is plain: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you.
