Name:

The LORD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him. -Moses, after God delivered Israel from the Egyptians. I'm part of something bigger than myself because my Father in heaven has united me to Christ Jesus, the only Savior and King of the nations, who dwells in me by His Spirit, and in that union I am part of Christ's Body, the Church.

The Beauty of the King, Part One

Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
- Matthew 28:16-20
I can't describe how delightful Jesus' words are here. The reason He commanded,
"Go, therefore and make disciples of all nations..."
was because all authority in heaven and on earth had been given to Him!
Look, Jesus' disciples have this Jesus who has all authority, this Jesus with them always, to the end of the age.
