The speaker discusses the Great Commission and how it is often misunderstood in the church today. He breaks down the three parts of the Great Commission as preaching the gospel, baptizing new converts, and teaching them to observe all things commanded in the Word. He emphasizes the importance of discipling and the evidence of a changed life in a saved person.

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. The Great Commission is, I think, very, is misunderstood today. Here again, we tend to see the Great Commission as, just tell people Jesus died for your sins. The Great Commission is threefold, as I see it.

Preach the gospel to every living creature. Take the gospel into all the world. That's the first part. Preach to them the gospel. And then the second, the good news of the saving grace of Christ.

And then the second part of that is that new converts that are to be baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and it's the third part that's kind of left out, and then you're supposed to teach them to observe all things whatsoever are commanded in my word. That's what Jesus said. Where is that in the church today? Where is this last part of the commission being fulfilled? To teach the disciples, to teach them to observe the things that are commanded in His Word.

Not to tell people, Jesus died for your sins, now if you say these words, you know, we proclaim you saved. No, the evidence is going to be in the life of that person. They're going to be a changed person, not a work of ours at all, but the discipling has to take place.
