What is the Great Commission?

1. Mobilize - “Go ye”

• The command is for all believers.
• Missions is not optional but a directive.
• We may not physically go, but we can give.

2. Evangelize - “Teaching all nations”

• Teaching the Gospel brings transformation.
• Faith is a muscle to be used, not just a belief.
• The Gospel provides freedom, power, and hope.

3. Baptize - “Baptizing them”

• Baptism is a public declaration of faith.

4. Emphasize - “Teaching them to observe all things”

• The Gospel is meant to be shared and lived out.
• Christian maturity involves faith, Christlike living, and doctrinal growth.

5. Personalize - “I have commanded you”

• Missions is about making Him known.
• Giving supports God’s work worldwide.
• We share the Gospel not just because we know others, but because we know Him.

Closing Thought: A villager once asked a missionary, “Do you know the Man in the Book?” Missions is helping others know the Man in the Book.
