1 God s Global Mission The Great Commission Of Our Lord Jesus Christ
2 First Two Well-Known Passages From the Gospels Of Matthew & Mark Matt 28:19-20 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Mark 16:19-20 Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
3 What s the Life Setting of these verses of the Great Commission? Imagine the geo-political context in which our Lord Jesus spoke these words to his beloved disciples. I am going to suggest to you to look at the context in a new way in order to understand these passages for today s current situation.
4 Second Well-known Passage Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. How is the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ going to be carried out?

16 What did God use in the Quiet Revival?
17 Both in the 1 st Century & the 21 st Century God used(s) CITIES! God used(s) DIASPORA PEOPLE God used(s) RELATIONAL (Primary) CULTURE God used(s) Spirit-Empowered people
18 From the City, to the Region and the World The 1:8s of the New Testament ACTS 1:8. To Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the uttermost ends of the earth. ROMANS 1:8. Your faith is being reported all over the world. I THESSALONIANS 1:8. Not only in Macedonia and Achaia (but) everywhere.
19 The City is a Gold Mine There is gold for the Lord in the cities of the world The city is a gold mine. It has prominent ethnic (vertical) veins. It has prominent sociological (horizontal) veins. And it has other veins that run at will in all directions But there is yet another level of complexity The city is also an organism constantly on the move. -Timothy Monsma

36 Not-So-Well-known Passages of the Great Commission John 13:35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. John 17:20-23 I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
37 Growth of Cities
38 Global Urban Ministries Network After 2000 yrs of Acts 1:8, wherever the Gospel has made a significant impact, believers are practicing Acts 1:8 all over again, going beyond their local cities, their Jerusalems to their regions & the World. Time has now come to Connect the Jerusalems to be more effective in World Evangelization following the Great Commission verses of John 13:35; 17: Cape Town GUMNet Luncheon: as a result now CT participant Mac Pier of New York City has begun a conversation among representatives of ten different cities of North America to learn from each other and EGC represents Boston.
