How do we know that the Great Commission applies to the church today?
Answered in 1 source
The Great Commission is given to the church and continues to apply today as Jesus promised His presence with the church until the end of the age.
The assurance of Christ's presence with His church, as stated in Matthew 28:20, confirms that the Great Commission endures throughout the ages. Historic Reformed theology emphasizes that the commission was not given to individuals but rather to the gathered body, the church, ensuring that it remains relevant and applicable for all local assemblies of believers. The church serves as the institutional means through which the gospel is spread, disciples are made, and the teachings of Jesus are perpetuated. Christ's promise to be with His church affirms the ongoing responsibility of the church to carry out the Great Commission until His return.
