Mathew 28:18-20",<br>"body":"Hello my steemians brothers,<br> here is another Bible Q&A I would like to share with you,<br>\n\nKnown as the great commission,<br> Jesus instructed his followers to go to all nations in order to make disciples.\n\nThis part of the scripture is frequently confused with a mandate for social work,<br> but Jesus taught to make disciples baptizing them in his name and the meaning of that ritual has to do with eternal things and nothing with secularism. \n\nBaptism is the public confession of someone who has embraced the Gospel. It is a symbol of identification with Christ,<br> his burial,<br> death and resurrection. It means someone has come to life for salvation. \n\nJesus encourages going and being ministers of the Gospel so that we bring salvation to others. \n\nMathew 28:18-20 has nothing to do with feeding people,<br> nor social work. It has everything to do with soul work,<br> the proclamation of the Gospel,<br> leading people to salvation and showing them the path of sanctification with the confidence that God is at work in that enterprise.\n\n*Then Jesus came to them and said,<br> \u201cAll authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,<br> baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,<br> 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always,<br> to the very end of the age.\u201d*\n\n<center>![bible qa4.jpg (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmS9BnCTECbZRHKvfSH2BLb2ASJrDyjwx1eTMRx1GsLMnH\/bible%20qa4.jpg)<\/center>\n\nResteem and follow,<br> other Bible Q&As right here:\n\nhttps:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/hello-again-my-steemians-brothers-and-welcome-to-bible-q-and-a-number-one\n\nhttps:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/in-what-consist-the-true-spiritual-battle\n\nhttps:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/can-a-christian-lose-their-salvation",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"christianity\",<br>\"christian-trail\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmS9BnCTECbZRHKvfSH2BLb2ASJrDyjwx1eTMRx1GsLMnH\/bible%20qa4.jpg\" ,<br>\"links\":[\"https:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/hello-again-my-steemians-brothers-and-welcome-to-bible-q-and-a-number-one\",<br>\"https:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/in-what-consist-the-true-spiritual-battle\",<br>\"https:\/\/steemit.com\/christianity\/@paquetedecuba\/can-a-christian-lose-their-salvation\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
