What's the "Great Commission?"

 

The Great Commission is encompassed in Jesus' final directions to the church before His assencion to His Father.  It is wrapped up in two separte passages of scripure...

 

• Matthew 28:18 - 20 - “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 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.

 

• Acts 1:8 - "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea andSamaria, and to the end of the earth.”

 

We believe that it is the responsibility of every beleiver to live in such a way that they can be participants in fulfilling the Great Commission.
