What is the role of evangelists according to the New Testament?

Answered in 1 source

Evangelists in the New Testament are seen as missionaries tasked with establishing gospel churches and training leaders.

In the framework of the New Testament, evangelists are appointed as crucial servants of God, specifically designated to spread the Gospel and establish new churches. Unlike modern interpretations that might dilute their role to mere itinerant speakers, New Testament evangelists such as Philip exemplify committed missionaries who build up congregations, train pastors, and guide the local church in the truth of the Gospel. They endure hardships and often work in unsung areas of ministry, reflecting the heart of Christ for the lost. Understanding this role strengthens the church's commitment to support those who labor in evangelism, underscoring the importance of spreading the message of salvation to all nations.
