But isn't trust ( faith ) involved in spreading the gospel good news message of Matthew 24:14; Acts 1:8 ?______
If people did Not trust that Jesus would be the one to usher in global Peace on Earth among men of goodwill, then, besides repenting and self-sacrificing love - John 13:34-35 - what would be the reason to carry out his commission to his followers as instructed at Matthew 28:19-20 ?
