1 Corinthians 15:3-6 – For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.
John 20:22 - And when he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19-20 - Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
Application:
· The disciples needed God’s help to carry out the commission they had been given
· The appearance of Jesus to so many people after His resurrection should bolster the faith of those who doubt
· Baptism is a sign of union with and commitment to Christ.
· Am I obeying everything He has commanded me? He is always with me
