How did Jesus commission the apostles?


Based on the book “The Great Commission of Jesus Christ to His Apostles by R. Milligan”,
pages 10-55, the several elements of this commission are all summarily comprehended in the three
following specifications:
1. The apostles were commanded to make disciples of all the nations
2. To baptize them into the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit
3. To teach them all things that Christ had Himself Commanded.

Baptism is the primary sacrament that sets the foundation of Christian life. The purpose of baptism
is the remission of our sins and to be saved.

Baptism implies a change of state. This new state may be described as the following:
1. It is a state of holiness
2. It may be considered as a state of happiness
3. It is also a state free from all possible external danger, so long as we faithfully walk in it
