READ: John 21:12-19

“He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, yea, LORD; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, feed my sheep. He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? …Jesus saith unto him, feed my sheep.” – John 21:16-17

In this last chapter of the book of John, Jesus Christ spoke to Peter and commissioned him to feed His sheep and to teach them. Love is the highlight of the Great Commission according to John. The Great Commission is a commission of love.

Perhaps, your greatest expression of love to Jesus is to feed His sheep and to look after them. Your great love for God can be expressed by feeding and teaching His little lambs. This is the Great Commission!

“He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? …And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep” (John 21:15).

“Do you love me? If you love me feed my sheep.” Feeding the sheep is the same as going to the nations. Feeding the sheep is the same as teaching the members. But Jesus is warning that only lovers of God will obey the Great Commission. How true this is!

Only those who love God can, and will obey the Great Commission. Today, it is as though there is a great commission to find money. It is as though the new great commission is to get rich and acquire the wealth of this world. Pastors preach as though they have been commissioned by God to make everyone rich.

Perhaps, some people have a special instruction from the Lord to make people rich. But I am sure you cannot show me this great commission in the Bible. The Great Commission is the commission to preach the gospel. If you love God, you will obey him!
