Matthew 28:16 - 28:18

Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses Matthew 28:16-18, where Jesus commands his disciples to go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature. The disciples worshipped Jesus but also had doubts, highlighting the humanity of the disciples. Gregg explains how the word "authority" means "right to rule" and Jesus asserts that all authority has been given to him in heaven and earth, emphasizing Jesus' power and sovereignty. Gregg also notes that although the Gospel writers do not mention the occasion where 500 people witnessed the resurrection of Christ, Paul references it in 1 Corinthians 15:6.
