After Jesus completed his sacrificial work at the cross, the Father raised His Son from the dead implying acceptance as a perfect sacrifice for the payment of sin; wherein the Father honors His Son and ascribe to him “all authority in heaven and on earth.” Therefore, the great commission is a glorious mission, because the gospel of Christ brings hope and eternal life to all who believes.  A mission based and grounded on the authority of our Lord Jesus.

耶穌在十字架上犠牲後，父神使祂從死裡復活，接納祂的犠牲為完美贖罪祭；父尊重祂，並將「天上地下所有的權柄」都歸於他。 因此，大使命是一項榮耀的使命，因為基督的福音給所有相信的人帶來希望和永生。 這使命是以我們主耶穌的權威為基礎的。
