And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Matthew 28:20b
 
Here we are, at the end of the Gospels…the accounts of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus – the Christ, Messiah, Lord of all, King of Kings. What a ride so far. 
 
Before Jesus ascended back to heaven, He leaves His followers with final marching orders…

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me,” He begins. Jesus has all power and all authority.

Continuing, He says, “Go therefore…” Action is required. We may be scared. We may be filled with joy. We may be both at the same time. One thing we must do is GO.

“…and make disciples of all the nations…” Disciples: scholars, teachers, students. Not just converts; disciples. And not just Jews…ALL nations. This good news is for everyone.

“…baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…” Not circumcising and converting to Jewish law observation, but baptizing. In the name (singular) of the Father, Son, Holy Spirit. One God in three persons. 

“…teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.” Don’t just baptize them, teach them about Me. Help them to know Me as you know me.

He concluded, “And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” I will never leave you. I will always be with you. 

The great commission to the first hearers of the words and to us comes with: power and authority, instructions, and a promise from Jesus to be with us always.

​Challenge: Believe the Gospel, and then GO and BE the Gospel.
