Jesus has the ultimate authority

Event: Peter at Cornealius’s House

S - Scripture
Acts 10 v. 42-43 And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he is the ordained by God to be Judge of the living and dead.

O - Observation
Our marching orders. Go and share. Matthew 28 v. 19a, "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations. " The great commission. Most folks know this verse. But it's the verse before it that leads credence to the second half of today's' Deep Thought.  Jesus states in Matthew 28 v 18, "All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me. " This is the ordination by God to be the Judge of the living and Dead. That is a Key message. There's more to life than this life. There's a life after death. Our life on earth will point us towards our life destination after death. Revelation 20 v. 15, "And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire."

A - Application
Do I realize the ultimate authority Jesus has? Does that motivate me to share?

P - Prayer
Jesus, Place an urgency  in my heart to share the Good news.    Love Will
