About the Commission of Matthew 28:19-20
The Commission of Matthew 28:19-20 at Mount Olive was a generalization of the Mission which Jesus the Christ passed on to His present and future followers to be occupied in until He returns. It is obvious; however, that the very Commission neither implied nor stated directly how the powerless disciples were to proceed with regard to a specific local area and starting point, where they as a church would first launch their campaign. It was therefore left opened to further instruction by Christ.
Further Instructions at Mt. Olivet
It is noteworthy though that the resurrected Christ, being assembled at Mt. Olivet with His Disciples, who would continue His Ministry commanded them that:
“They should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, said He ye have heard of me. For John truly baptize with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.”[Acts 1:4]
Further,
“… Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the utmost parts of the world. [Acts 1: 4-5 & 8]
Christ’s Ascension
Beloved, with the above mentioned being said, the resurrected Christ was taken up from them into heaven. “And a cloud received Him out of there sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which(who) is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.” [Acts 1: 9-11] Subsequently, they returned to Jerusalem from Mt. Olivet.
Inside the Upper Room at Jerusalem
And at Jerusalem they went into the upper room and put into practice what the risen and ascended Jesus had commanded them to do, for they, along with others, “continued with one accord, in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus and with His brethren.” [Acts 1: 12-14] And after being in that prayer and supplication mood for the tenth day, that is, counting from the day Jesus the Christ had ascended into heaven and sat on the right hand of Yahweh His heavenly Father, they received the Holy Spirit of promise. “It is written:
“And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues as the spirit gave them utterance.” [Acts 2: 1-4] Amen.
Beloved, His Disciples (about 120) having remained in Jerusalem where they had waited in the Upper Room in prayer and supplications, were finally rewarded for obeying the commands of the resurrected Christ, who after His ascension into heaven still continued to command them, who had become Holy Ghost filled on the day of Pentecost. And it is worthy to note that that on the day of Pentecost Peter’s speech at Jerusalem and that entire events of that day marked the successful launching of Christ’s Commission to them to evangelize the World according to His systemic geographic plan and direction, that is, to start from Jerusalem, next to Judea, then to Samaria and further afield, namely the utmost part of the earth. [Acts 1: 8]
The post outpouring effects of the Holy Spirit
And that phenomenon which was “noised abroad” brought to the scene multitudes of Jews, who had returned to Jerusalem for the feast of Pentecost, and they were confounded because “every man heard them speak in his own language…” And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? Others mocking said, these men are full of new wine.” [Acts 2:12-13]
Beloved, on the day of Pentecost the Jewish spectators were confused after they each heard their language being spoken by Galileans, and others mocked and said that they were “filled with new wine.” But Peter stood up with the eleven and addressed the “men at Judea and all those who dwelt at Jerusalem.”
In his speech on that historical day of Pentecost, Peter the Apostle first explained to gathering that they were not drunk as they had supposed, for it was just nine o’clock in the morning, but what they had heard and witnessed was due to the out pouring of the Spirit in the last days according to the prophesy of Joel the Prophet. And the rest of His of message was focused on the centrality of Christ, and He boldly made His audience know the undeniable facts below:-
- That Jesus the Christ of Nazareth was a man approved by God among them, by the miracles and signs and wonders, which God did by Him in their midst
- That by being delivered by the determinate council and foreknowledge of God, they had taken Him, and by the wicked hands have crucified and slain Him
- That God raised Him (Jesus Christ) from the dead, having loosed Him from the pains of death, since death could not bind or hold Him.
- That David spoke of Jesus of Nazareth when he said, “I saw the Lord always before my face, for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved … moreover my flesh shall rest in hope: because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy one to see corruption. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.
- That God had sworn with an oath to the Patriarch David that with the fruits of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up Christ to sit on His throne; and that David foreseeing that promise as a future reality spoke of the resurrection of Christ, “that His soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.”
- That,”This Jesus hath God raised up, wherefore we are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, He shed forth this (event) which ye now see and hear,” and
- That “God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified both Lord and Christ.” [Acts 2: 14-36]
The Effects of Peter’s message
- Beloved, at that point of the climax of His message, “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified both Lord and Christ,” they had become pricked in their heart [Acts 2: 14-36] and had asked Peter and the rest of the Apostles, “Men and brethren what shall we do?”
Peter’s revelation of the procedure of Baptism plus its conditions and its benefits
-
In His response to their question “Men and brethren what shall we do?” Peter, who was filled with the Holy Ghost, and was under the command of the ascended Christ in heaven, said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, for the promise is unto you, and your children and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord God shall call.”[Acts 2:38]
The Revealed Procedure of Baptism put into practice with immediate effect
- According to the scripture, “Then they that gladly received the Word were baptized: and the same day were added unto them (the 120 followers of Christ) about three thousand (3ooo) souls. And they continued steadfastly in the Apostles doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.” [Acts 2: 41-42]
Beloved, the mere fact that Jesus Christ was a real man who was crucified died and buried and that God His heavenly Father raised Him up from the dead is the reason why we Believes have hope, and hope that is beyond the grave. Interestingly, the Patriarch David an Ancestor of Jesus the Christ and one who lived twenty eight generation before Christ, knew that God had sworn to him with and oath to him, “that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up Christ to sit on his throne foresaw that coming event, and spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that “His soul was not left in hell (grave) neither His flesh did see corruption.” [Acts 2: 31]
Also,
Job “the perfect and upright man” [Job 1: 1] of the Old Testament Kingdom of God, expressed his hope in the resurrection of Jesus Christ his Redeemer, when he said,
“I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: and though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God; whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins (eyes) be consumed within me.” [Job 19: 25-27]
Beloved, as the Prophets of the Old Testament, and the Apostles and saints of the New Testament, we, who from the heart have believed the Word do have hope also. And our hope is in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has become “the first fruit of them that slept,” (Believers in Christ who would have died in hope) and He has assured us through His Word that we will live again at His coming. [John 5:28-29, 11:25,] And we take our faith in Christ, in whose resurrection we have hope, to the next level, that is, to the water of baptism to be baptized by immersion, and in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins…, — the one baptism that symbolizes that we have been baptized into Jesus’ death. Additionally, it assures us that, “We are buried with Jesus Christ by baptism unto death: that like as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so also we shall walk in the newness of life,” both in this life and in the life hereafter. The rational is: for if we have been planted together in the likeness of His death, we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection. Let us give Yahweh the highest praise! Hallelujaaaaaaah!!! Amen.
Beloved, let us earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints! [Jude verse 3]
