Hi to All , I hear this all the time , that we are bring in the Kingdom, and like to quote Matt 28:19-20 .

1) They say that there is a Great Commission that we have to obey .

2) And they like to quote , Matt 28 :19 ,20 , GO , ye therfore , and teach all nations , baptizing them in the name of the Father , and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit ; teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you

3) Who out there is willing to tell ME , what are the ALL THINGS THAT I HAVE COMMANDED YOU ?

4) This command was given to the 12 , and my question to all is , did they DO IT ?

Now I have another verse to look at . Matt 10: 5 and there are some who whip me with , that I dis-regard Jesus's words.

In Matt 10:5 , JESUS says to the 12 , commanded them , saying , GO , NOT into the way of the Gentiles and into ANY city of the Samaritians ENTER YE NOT ,

5) V6 , But rather go to the LOST sheep of the house of Israel .

6) Why the difference ?

7) They can 't be the same , can they ?

8) What is the commission to the Body of Christ ?

9) Is there a commission to the Body of Christ , given by Paul ? I say there IS .

10) One of the answers for Matt 10:5 is found in Rom 15 : 8 , and this just one of many reasons that Christ came to earth .
 
There is no commission to the body of Christ, but we do have Paul's letters to the church for Paul is the apostle to the gentiles and Jews both.

But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
Romans 7:6 (KJV)

Christ's commission that was originally given to the apostles has not been fulfilled yet and won't be until the 144,000 Jews evangelize the world.

Here is some proof this so called commission is not for today and will not be carried out until after the time of the gentiles.

The first account as most know and swear by is found in Matt 29 the other account is found in Mark 16.

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover
Mark 16:15-18 (KJV)

It amazing how many professing believers completely ignore God's second account of the 'Great Commission' since there are no signs to those who believe. That should tell people something God is not in the physical miracle business right now unless you can figure those in tent meetings and auditoriums with the jungle music and people falling down and laughing hysterically, and a few hidden diseases one can't see are being miraculously healed, but I don't see anyone drinking antifreeze or healing anyone from physical aliments that you can see. Therefore I would have to assume God is not in the commission business today but rather God is giving us instruction from his gave Paul and its there for our reading and learning.

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.

Romans 15:4 (KJV)
