Bible Note: Hi JMSCOTT, When Jesus spoke in Matthew 28:18 He was speaking as the One who had been lying in a tomb in verse 6, "Come, see the place where (He) was lying." He was speaking as the One who had risen, been worshipped, and was telling his disciples to not be afraid in verse 10, "Then (Jesus) said to them, "Do not be afraid;..." He was speaking as the One who was seen and worshipped; but some were doubtful. Verse 18, "And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to (Me) in heaven and on earth." He was speaking to them as the God of heaven and earth and with authority and he ends with, "and lo, I/ am with you always, even to the end of the age." Matthew 28:19 says, "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations" [in the authority of the God of heaven and earth.] You ask me what His name is. I would go to Exodus 3:10 where it doesn't say "Go therefore" but rather, "Therefore, come now, and I will send you to Pharoah, so that you may bring My people, the sons of Israel, out of Egypt. But Moses said to God, 'Who am I, that I should go...' And He said, 'Certainly I will be with you...it is I/ who have sent you." ***So you see that we should go therefore in His authority for He sent us and He will be with us. Matthew 28:20, "teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I/ am with you always, even to the end of the age." Exodus 3:12, "Certainly I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that it is I/who have sent you: Exodus 3:14b, "...and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I am/ has sent me to you." Exodus 3:13, "Then Moses said to God, "Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel, and I shall say to them, 'The (God) of your fathers has sent me to you.' Now they may say to me, 'What is His name?' What shall I say to them?" 14, "And God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM"; and He said, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, 'I AM/ has sent me to you.'" You realize of course that the / and ( ) are mine for helping us to make comparisons. Matthew 28:18b, "All authority has been given to (Me) in heaven and earth...and lo, I am/ with you always, even to the end of the age." From the heart, Ray |
