The Lofty Commission… Disciples are “learners” – “followers of Christ’s teaching” (cf. Eph. 4:20, Acts 19:1-3) Baptizing them – in the authority of united Godhead (Acts 2:38, 10:48, 11:26) Teaching them to observe all Christ commanded (Lk. 14:25-35) Must Love Jesus more than family and self (v.26) Must carry on burden and follow Jesus (v.27) Must Renounce all he or she has (v.33)

Eph. 4:20, Acts 19:1-3) Baptizing them – in the authority of united Godhead (Acts 2:38) Teaching them to observe all Christ commanded (Lk. 14:25-35) Must Love Jesus more than family and self (v.26) Must carry on burden and follow Jesus (v.27) Must Renounce all he or she has (v.33) Must observe all of Christ’s imperatives

Should we accept this responsibility Today? God is not concerned with lost souls today? (2 Pet. 3:9) Baptism is no longer necessary for making disciples? Teaching others no longer a responsibility among Christians (2 Tim. 2:2) Jesus is no longer “with us”? “always”??? (Matt. 28:20)
