Summary
Jesus commissions his disciples to make disciples of all nations, declaring that he holds all authority in heaven and earth. The sermon explores what it means to truly follow Jesus as a disciple—not merely believing in him intellectually, but submitting every aspect of one's life to his lordship and participating in his mission to bring the gospel to all people groups.
Highlights
When we are faithless, he is faithful. When we are full of doubt, he is full of hope. And when we stand hesitantly at a distance, Jesus draws near.
There's no such thing as a disciple of Jesus that doesn't have Jesus as their savior, but also bows to him as Lord. That's just what it means.
If the son of God thought this was important enough to die for, surely it is important enough for us to live for.
