What is the message of the Great Commission?

Joel Beeke explains in this video that the message of the Great Commission is to bring the Gospel to everyone in the world and to see every unconverted person as a mission field. We are called to be faithful to bring the Word of God to unbelievers that we interact with.

The Gospel is all about how Christ came to do everything for us who are powerless to do anything. We must communicate to the unsaved that our Savior is willing and able to save the greatest of sinners. They are called to repent and believe the Gospel with all their mind, soul, and strength.

Luke 19:9-10 (NKJV) – “And Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.”



Our Lord's last command is our first priority. In the church, in the family, in the city, to the ends of the earth. Join us in October for White Under Harvest. Well, the Great Commission is to bring the gospel to everyone on the face of the earth and to see every unconverted person as a mission field. And the gospel, of course, is he who knew no sin became sin, that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

In other words, Jesus Christ came to do everything for us, we who could do nothing. And so we must bring that to everyone that our Savior is able and willing to save the greatest of sinners and they are called to repent and to believe that gospel with all their mind, with all their heart, with all their soul, with all their strength.
