If you have questions about the Church, the best place to look for answers is within God's word. Jesus himself clearly and definitively establishes the marching orders for the Church just before his ascension when he delivers his Great Commission, which is recorded in the Gospels of Matthew (chapter 28), Mark (chapter 16), and Luke (chapter 24). The mission of the young Church (and to the Church today), according to Jesus, was to go and proclaim the Gospel (which literally means "good news") about him to all nations. Here the term "nations" doesn't refer to sociopolitical governments, but rather unique ethnic people groups.
