The Great Commission

"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."- Matthew 28:18-20

This is a great Bible verse that many people have called "The Great Commission", but it is misunderstood by a lot of people. People stress the word "go" in verse 19, when that isn't what is supposed to be focused on too much. The word that is supposed to be focused on is "make". What is really being said is "As you go, make disciples." We go places all of the time, and while we are going we should make disciples. Jesus came to Earth and spent all of His time here with a group of just 12 guys and teaching them everything he knows so they may make disciples one day. They traveled the nation of Israel, which isn't a whole lot of land, and spread the good news. This just goes to show that you don't have to travel halfway around the world to make disciples. The making of disciples can happen at work, at home, in school, etc. Wherever you go, make disciples.
