There are several reasons why it is urgent to share the Gospel:
- Time is short: The Bible teaches that this life is temporary and that we will all stand before God one day to give an account of our lives (Ecclesiastes 3:1, Romans 14:12). Because of this, it is important to share the Gospel message as soon as possible, so that people have the opportunity to respond to Jesus before it is too late.
- People are lost without Jesus: The Bible also teaches that all people are lost without Jesus and that we are all in need of salvation (Romans 3:23). Sharing the Gospel is an act of love and compassion, because it offers people the opportunity to be reconciled to God and to have eternal life through faith in Jesus.
- The world needs the Gospel: The world is filled with pain, suffering, and injustice, and the Gospel provides hope and healing for these problems. Sharing the Gospel with others allows us to be a part of bringing this hope and healing to the world.
- God commands us to share the Gospel: Finally, it is urgent to share the Gospel because God commands us to do so. In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus tells his followers to “go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” This passage, known as the Great Commission, is a clear command from Jesus for believers to share the Gospel with others.
There are many good reasons to share the Gospel with others, and it is important to be faithful to this calling and to do so with a sense of urgency.

Is It Ever Too Soon to Share the Gospel?
It is generally not too soon to share the Gospel with others, as long as it is done in a way that is respectful and appropriate. The Gospel message is a message of hope and salvation, and it is something that can be shared with people at any stage of life.
However, it’s important to approach evangelism with sensitivity and to consider the individual circumstances and needs of the person you are sharing with. Some people may be more receptive to hearing about faith and may be ready to explore the Gospel message in more depth. Others may not be ready to hear about faith or may not be interested in exploring it at this time. In these cases, it can be helpful to continue building a relationship with the person and to pray for them, rather than pushing the Gospel message on them.
Ultimately, the timing of when to share the Gospel with others will depend on the individual circumstances and needs of the person you are sharing with, as well as the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It’s important to be led by the Spirit and to approach evangelism with love and compassion.
