The Great Commission
"And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. ".... Matt 28: 18-19.
This Great Commission is a significant passage in the Holy Bible.
It is the last recorded personal instruction given by Jesus to His disciples. It is a special calling from Jesus Christ to all His followers to take specific action while on this earth.
The Great Commission is found in the Gospel according to Matthew.
