90 The Great Commission [Matthew 28:16–20]

The Bible passage: [Matthew 28:16–20]

The Story:

The apostles traveled to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had directed them. When they saw Him, they worshiped, but some weren’t very comfortable with what might happen.

Jesus came near and said to them, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

The Lessons:

• Jesus told His apostles to:
• GO to the whole world
• MAKE new disciples (by telling His story to others)
• BAPTIZE the new disciples
• TEACH the new disciples
• He told them to remember that He would always be with them.
