Jesus leaves his disciples with a mission- the Great Commission.
This mission is consistent with the rest of the New Testament. Anyone who read or heard about the other writings/accounts of Jesus’ disciples would see this is what they dedicated the rest of their lives to carry out.
Jesus could have fulfilled his mission in any way- but he chose to use the redeemed to tell others how to be redeemed.
Christ-followers were handed a glorious mission and should be honored to be included.
Live #onmission.
Curious that verse 17 would include “they worshiped, but some doubted”. The disciples were still wrapping their minds around what had happened.
Lord Jesus, I want to be about your mission for your glory.
