"... preach the gospel."

Probably a minor point, but I think He said "... make disciples."

We are both correct...

Mark 16:14-18 Later Jesus appeared to the Eleven as they were eating; he rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen him after he had risen.

He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."

Some of our posters would prefer...

"...And these signs will accompany those who believe: they will dress like someone out of GQ magazine, listen to music that is at least 100 years old, judge others who have different cultural preferences..."
