‏ Matthew 28:18

v. 18: Jesus comes closer and speaks to them. He says, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." This means Jesus is now the King and ruler over everything—both in the spiritual world and in this world. He has the right to command his followers and to send them everywhere. Jesus’ power comes from God the Father, and he uses it to save people and to guide his church. This statement also shows that Jesus is truly God’s Son and the promised Savior.
