Matthew 28:18-20

Love is an action word and others will know us by the love we show them.

By living out the truth of salvation in our lives others will be drawn to Jesus. He is the firstborn of many who are called according to God’s purpose. What is that purpose?  To spread the Good News.

Showing others the way to the Father in the salvation He provided in the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus opens the door to abundant life. God’s gift to man is offered, freely and without partiality, to those who choose to repent, humble themselves  and accept it. It is not about our goodness but His.

Jesus gave up His life for YOU!

The Greek verb used here for doubt implies hesitation or indecision, rather than unbelief. The disciples are struggling to comprehend what they are witnessing.

The resurrection is the ultimate validation of Jesus’ divine authority. He extends this authority to His disciples to continue the work of the kingdom of heaven. Jesus has repeatedly demonstrated His authority over all things—the human body, demons, natural elements (such as wind and water), the Sabbath, sin, and even death. The disciples’ task was to reproduce themselves by going, baptizing, and teaching. Faithlife Bible.
