Mar 11 - 04 - Matthew 28:19

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.

Matthew 28:19

Bible Rank: 4

 

Do you know what Jesus' very last words on earth are?

 

According to the Gospel of Matthew -- and just before ascending into heaven -- Jesus gave you and me a job. 

 

He gave it first, of course, to his original disciples. But when we become disciples (devoted followers of the Savior), this job passes to us to. 

 

What is this job? "Pass it on!"

 

Someone inspired your faith. Someone literally saved your life ... eternally! "Pass it on!"

 

This isn't denying the foundational role of the Holy Spirit calling, gathering, enlightening, and making faith possible! It's simply acknowledging that God use us as part of his rescue plan!

 

We are command to "go." To do "it." To "make disciples." To testify to the truth. To witness to what a changed life looks like through the way faith impacts our daily lives. 

 

God is counting on you. 

 

"Pass it on."

 

In Christ's Love,

a guy who wants to be a

hall-of-fame quarterback

(I want to be world-class

at passing it on)
