To tie it up with this concept of authority and the Great Commission as well, When Jesus says he claimed all authority, last night at house church, we met, and the gentleman leading the discussion, he just read Psalm 22, because I had preached on Psalm 22. Actually, I didn't even preach on Psalm 22. I preached on Mark, out of Mark 15, on the crucifixion of Jesus.

Psalm 22 is, if you read it, you would say, wait a second, this isn't the Old Testament because it is an exact description of what happened to Jesus on the cross, how he was pierced, how they put the crown of thorns on his head. Everything's in there. And it's a messianic prophecy about the way that Christ would die.

And so we sat in that, like he read the text and just in silence, we sat there for a minute and it was heavy. It was very heavy because we didn't get into the resurrection on Sunday because it was the Sunday before Easter. We do that on Easter, but we just sit in the death that week before on Palm Sunday. And we preach like it's a Good Friday sermon. And so we just sat there.

Well, then somebody turned the page and I love it because it literally was on the next page. Turn the page past the death of Christ. And the picture in Psalm 22 is the picture of the Christ with full authority and dominion. In one translation, the word dominion is actually used, which made me think of Daniel 7, that passage. But this is what it says.

And just listen to the language here at the end of Psalm 22 and verse 27. All the ends of the earth shall remember. All the ends of the earth. Not one people group. All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord. And all the families of all the nations shall worship before you. For the kingship belongs to the Lord and he rules or he has dominion over. Over the nations.

And I'm just like, even in that messianic text, that prophecy in Psalm 22 about the death of Christ, you also see the Great Commission when Christ claims all authority on heaven and earth has been given to me. Now go and make what? Disciples of all nations. Go fulfill what the – this is the mandate. This is what we're doing. This is the plan.

And I just think that that authority, that dominion, it is all just soaking in all of this, even in John 6.
