The Great Commission is so much more.

Matthew 28 KJV
18. And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20. teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
The subject verse we recognize as the Great Commission. In our quest for revival many use this as the evangelistic and salvation verse, but it is literally much more. This verse not only sends us out to spread the seeds of salvation, but it also directs us “teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you”.
So our commission is not just to evangelize and spread the gospel, but to bring the whole magnitude of God’s greatness and glory to the entire world. Our commission is to “go” and spread God’s commandments, ordinances, and His precepts. This is not a suggestion for us to follow if, when, and how we want, this is an edict by Christ himself, set down that we finish the work He left behind. He did not leave His work undone by accident or because He ran out of time, no, He left it for us to follow in His way so we can strive to develop ourselves into His perfect image. Knowing we will never gain the perfection of Christ we must accept our commission as a life long duty and commitment.
If you embrace all of the Great Commission as Christ delivered it, it will change your life and God will be “with you, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
