Bible Question: May ask this question about what Jesus said to one of the malefactors, in Luke 23:43 is this part of the great commission? |
Bible Answer: Hello, The other responders are correct. Luke 23:43 is not the Great Commission. If you want Dr. Luke's version of the Great Commission, Read Acts 1:4-8. Mark 16:15-18 and Matthew 28:18-21 both have the Great Commission recorded. For the Gospel of John, the Great Commission isn't found. However, the conversation between Jesus and Peter in John 21:11-23 teaches the same basic thing. As for Jesus and the Thief on the Cross, that is one of the most powerful testaments to the Authority of Jesus that you will ever find in the Bible, next to possibly the Transfiguration and the Ressurrection of Lazarus. Even while dying on the Cross, Jesus still had the Power and Authority to save whom he chose. That act shows us that Jesus could've come down off the cross if he wanted to, and it shows that he died willingly. I hope this helps. Jesus Loves You! Jesusman |
