“Accepting the Challenge to Go” Matthew 28:18-20
And Jesus came and said to them, h“All authority iin heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 jGo therefore and kmake disciples of lall nations, jbaptizing them min2 nthe name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them oto observe all that pI have commanded you. And behold, qI am with you always, to rthe end of the age.”
We must have clarity on the Command of the Great Commission.
The command is to make disciples.
The go, baptize and teach inform us how disciples are made.
Glory means weight
We must realize Jesus’ authority in out life.
The authority of Jesue must go from being a concept in our lives to being a reality in our lives.
God as a concept in our lives is something you create.
God as a reality in our lives is authority over us.
We must realize that you cannot make disciples without going.
Making disciples implies going.
We cannot outsource the going part of the Great Commission to other agencies.
