The Great Commission
The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20 is crystal clear:
Go and make disciples of all nations
Baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit
Teach them to obey everything I have commanded you.
Easy Right – NOPE, In comes the lord again in Matthew 7:22-23
And many will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles. Then I will tell them plainly, I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!
This is a clear rebuke of even baptised disciples, people who have taught the scriptures, cast out demons and even performed miracles, The very people who have found the narrow gate that only few will find.
What could we possibly be missing?
Enter The Narrow Road
Do not be conformed to this world Romans 12:2
Be in the world but not of it (John 17:14-16).
Come out of her, my people (Revelation 18:4).
Flee to the mountains when you see the abomination (Matthew 24:15-16).
Do not receive the mark (Revelation 13:16-17).
Obey God rather than men (Acts 5:29).
Is choosing to sacrificing our own wants and needs whats missing, is choosing obedience over convenience the conveniently ignored component to obey everything, Lets see
Pick Up Your Cross
The cross is the ultimate symbol of obedience that costs everything — and Jesus carried it, he led by example to show what obeying everything" really looks like.
Need Proof
Then he said to them all: 'Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. Luke 9:23
And whoever does not carry their cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. Luke 14;27
