The Authority of the Risen King

In this powerful exploration of Matthew 28:16-20, we delve into the profound implications of Jesus' authority and the Great Commission. The central message revolves around the simple yet transformative truth: 'If Jesus is the King, then Jesus is the King.' This declaration challenges us to examine every aspect of our lives and align them with Christ's lordship. We're reminded that even the disciples worshipped Jesus while some doubted, reflecting our own struggles with faith. The imagery of the mountain as a meeting place between heaven and earth beautifully symbolizes Jesus' role in bridging the divine and human realms. As we contemplate Jesus' command to make disciples of all nations, we're called to not just learn, but to apply the whole of God's word to the whole of our lives. This message urges us to step out in faith, share the gospel boldly, and trust in Christ's constant presence as we fulfill His mission.
