The Power of "I Will Go Also"
Commentators emphasize that the spread of faith is driven by personal, mutual encouragement. The invitation "Let us go" becomes powerful when the speaker adds, "I will go also." Scholars like Charles Spurgeon note that this shows our witness is most effective when our own example of eagerly seeking God backs up our words to others. True faith is not passive but actively and personally invites others to join in.
