Шаблон:Gospel Jesus In Christianity, the Great Commission is the instruction of the resurrected Jesus Christ to his disciples to spread the gospel to all the nations of the world. The Great Commission is outlined in Matthew 28:16–20, where on a mountain in Galilee Jesus calls on his followers to make disciples of and baptize all nations in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The Great Commission is similar to the episodes of the commissioning of the Twelve Apostles found in the other Synoptic Gospels, though with significant differences.Шаблон:Citation needed Luke also has Jesus during his ministry dispatching disciples, including the seventy disciples, sending them to all the nations and giving them power over demons. The dispersion of the Apostles in the traditional ending of Mark is thought to be a 2nd-century summary based on Matthew and Luke.Шаблон:Citation needed

It has become a tenet in Christian theology emphasizing ministry, missionary work, evangelism, and baptism.Шаблон:Citation needed The apostles are said to have dispersed from Jerusalem and founded the apostolic sees Шаблон:Citation needed, such as those at Corinth, Philippi, Ephesus, and Rome (see also: Holy See). Preterists believe that the Great Commission and other Bible prophecies were fulfilled in the 1st century while futurists believe Bible prophecy has yet to be fulfilled at the Second Coming.Шаблон:Citation needed

Interpretations

The commission from Jesus has been interpreted by evangelical ChristiansШаблон:Which as meaning that his followers have the duty to go, make disciples, teach, and baptize. Although the command was initially given directly only to Christ's eleven Apostles, evangelical Christian theology has typically interpreted the commission as a directive to all Christians of every time and place, particularly because it seems to be a restatement or moving forward of the last part of God's covenant with Abraham in Шаблон:Bibleverse.Шаблон:Citation needed CommentatorsШаблон:Which often contrast the Great Commission with the earlier Limited Commission of Шаблон:Bibleverse, in which they were to restrict their mission to their fellow Jews, whom Jesus referred to as "the lost sheep of the house of Israel".

Full Preterists believeШаблон:Citation needed that the Great Commission was already fulfilled based on the New Testament passages "And they went out and preached everywhere" (Шаблон:Bibleverse), "the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven" (Шаблон:Bibleverse), and "Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret for long ages past, but now is manifested, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, has been made known to all the nations" (Шаблон:Bibleverse).Шаблон:Primary source inline
