The last recorded thing that Jesus said to Peter before ascending
into heaven, after his resurrection appearance at the Sea of Galilee
was, "Do you love me?... feed my
sheep." This was the task set before the great disciple,
Peter, and the other disciples as well, to teach the church about
the Kingdom of God. In fact the great commission in Matthew 28:18-20
is not just about evangelism, it is about "...making
disciples, baptizing them... and teaching them to obey everything I
have commanded you." |
