READ: Matthew 28:16-20

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: … and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen” – Matthew 28:19 20

There are a series of mountains that surround the lake of Galilee. These words that Jesus spoke on one of these mountains are what we call The Great Commission. According to Matthew, these were the last words of Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:16). Let us go through highlights of this Great Commission according to Matthew.

1. THE GREAT COMMISSION IS A COMMISSION TO BAPTIZE:
Jesus said, “Baptize!” Yet many do not baptize anyone in water. We sprinkle water on babies and claim that they are baptized. Baptism must accompany salvation. Every great commissioner must be a baptizer of souls.

2. THE GREAT COMMISSION IS A COMMISSION OF HIS PRESENCE.
Jesus said, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” As you are committed to obeying the Great Commission, you can expect to experience His person, enjoy His voice speaking to you all the time and also enjoy His gifts in your life. Many ministries do not have the presence of God any longer. They are very far from the Great Commission. This is why the church is powerless and no longer hears from God nor experiences His gifts and power.

3. THE GREAT COMMISSION IS A COMMISSION UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD:
Jesus said, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” This Great Commission is valid until the end of the world. No new commandment has been given to us. We are to carry on doing the same thing until the end of the world. Some people think the Great Commission has already been fulfilled. How can this be when billions of people do not know Jesus Christ? How can you say the Great Commission has been fulfilled when the end of the world has not happened? This commission is till the end of the world.
