"THE WITNESS OF THE PROPHET LUKE
AND THE APOSTLE JOHN"

checked 11/2011

We have studied Acts 1, Matthew 28, and Mark 16's witness to Jesus' commission to the apostles.
First, we review this information and then we study Luke's account.

1. Acts 1 records that the apostles were
   (1) to wait at Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit,
   (2) to witness into all the earth, and
   (3) to know that Jesus' promise is that He is coming back.

This is Matthew`s record.
   (1) Jesus commands his apostles to go to all nations.
   (2) They are to teach disciples and baptize them.
   (3) The apostles are to teach the baptized disciples to observe all of Jesus` commands.
   (4) He promises to be with them always.

This is Mark`s record.
   (1) Jesus commands his apostles to go and preach the gospel to everyone.
   (2) He that believes the gospel and is baptized shall be saved.
   (3) The apostles will perform signs to confirm the gospel.
