The Great Commission's "All" Nature
“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age .’” (Matthew 28:18-20).
When Jesus Sent Out His Apostles...
1. He had all authority given to Him by His Father,
the right to speak for His Father,
and the right to tell us what to do
to live for Him.
2. He spoke to all nations with one plan of salvation
for all people, one way to heaven in Him,
and one church purchased with
His blood.
3. He said observe all things He commanded, not just
ones we like, the majority accepts,
those we all agree on, or seem most
convenient.
4. He can be with us always in fellowship as the
loving Shepherd and His sheep,
as we hear His voice, heed His call, and
follow His word.
