The Last Words of Jesus
Adrian Rogers
Matthew 28
Would you turn please to Matthew chapter 28. And in a few moments we're going to read the last three verses in that wonderful chapter. But let me ask you a question before we read those verses. I want you to use your imagination. I ''want you to imagine that the death bed of your father or your mother or your wife or husband or perhaps somebody else that you love and respect more than anybody else on the fact of this earth.

And I want to continue the thought that I had this morn that every Christian is to be a missionary And I want us to look here at the marching orders of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and basically I pr ...
