3 C’S THAT HOLD US TOGETHER: COMMISSION

A tendon connects parts of the body and withstands tension. We need strong tendons to withstand tension in the Body of Christ.

Key Verses: 1 Peter 4:10-11 - As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies - in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

The third Tendon-C we need to develop is commission.

We have received two central commissions in God’s Word:

The Original Commission: Glorify God (Isaiah 43:5-7)

• We’ve been commissioned to

(1 Chronicles 16:23-30)
• We’ve been commissioned to be (Philippians 1:9-10)
• We’ve been commissioned to (John 17:4)

The Great Commission: Make Disciples (Matthew 28:18-20)

• We’ve been commissioned to go and

(Mark 16:15)
• We’ve been commissioned to , , and . (2 Timothy 4:1-2)
• We’ve been commissioned to use our . (1 Peter 4:8-11)

Healthy Tendon-C’s glorify God and make disciples.
