The Great Commission
"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 all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
This is Our mission
Why are we called to go?
We are called to go because God is worthy of worship from every nation, and His desire is for all people to know Him.
In the Old Testament, the writers declare the greatness of the Lord in every place.
- Habakkuk 2:19 states that “the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.”
- Psalm 102:15 states that “nations will fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth will fear your glory.”
Jesus’s life on the earth was not only for the purpose of saving people on earth but was primarily to bring glory to God.
- In John 17:1-5, right before he went to the cross, Jesus said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him."
Why is God Worthy
God sent his one and only son because he loved us so much, that even when we were corrupted by sin, he sent a way for us to be together with him
