Chapter 33: The Great Commission

What is our Great Commission?

• to make disciples and teach others about Jesus

• to go and make lots of money

• to have many children

• to tell everyone about the great flood and Noah's ark

What is a 'commission'?

• a job to comb people's hair

• a mission with someone else

• a specific goal or task to be carried out given as an order

• a secret job

Why do you think that teaching the people to obey Jesus' commands is part of the Great Commission?

• because Jesus says we cannot be Christians unless we obey Him all the time

• because Jesus taught the disciples the only way to see God is by obeying Him

• because Christians are people who have been forgiven of their sins so they want to obey God to show how much they love Him

• because Jesus taught the disciples how to be good Christians and wanted them to make the others just like them

Did the disciples follow Jesus' instruction?

• Yes, they went around and taught people about Jesus

• No, they stayed in Jerusalem hiding until they died

Why are missionaries important?

• because how should people hear about Jesus if no one tells them

• because the churches need someone to give money to

• because we can read about what they've done to spread God's Word

• because Christians need people to dress up like on Halloween

What promise does Jesus give His disciples along with the instructions to share His Word?

• that they will always be safe

• that He will come and get them as soon as they tell people about Him

• that He will always be with them

• that they will all die really in really scary ways

Jesus wants His followers to:

• look

  listen

  walk

• run

  carry

  fall

• pray

  give

  tell

• stop

  drop

  roll
