POST RESURRECTION COMMISSION

POST RESURRECTION COMMISSION

 

“And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matt. 28:18-20

1.       To bear witness of Jesus death and resurrection. The King is gone but coming back in accordance with what the prophets have foretold. This was a necessary part of the covenant made to Abraham and his children.

2.       To preach repentance and remission to all men. Rev. 21:24

3.       Make disciples of all nations. God wants lots of kids. Gen. 1:28 God blessed them at that point and said, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.” Rev. 22:4 says “And His name shall be on their foreheads.” Also Heb. 2:13-14.

4.       Baptize all of them. Revealing and symbolizing the Triune movement concerning the mysterious movement by God the Father. See Eph. 3:4-5; 1 Cor. 2:6-9.

5.       Teach them all things. 1 Cor. 2:9 “…..all that God has prepared for those that love Him.” Eph. 1:18 “…...so that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints.”

John 13:13 “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.”  He is THE TEACHER and THE LORD and all who recognize that fact will take His teaching and find strength from the Spirit to perform what He teaches and commands such as above. Those that are truly “born again” or “blessed” or “happy” however you translate the word makarios will receive and perform those words He shares by grace to them. John 13:17 “If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.”  Thereby you prove He is the Teacher and the Lord and you love both Him and His words.
