When we
hear something over and over again in the same way, we can become so familiar
with it that the text loses its impact. Have you try to look at The Great
Commission in different version of Bibles? Can you notice the differences?

the Holy Spirit,

commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the
age.”
- Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have
been given all authority in heaven and on earth.

commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even
to the end of the age.”
Jesus,
undeterred, went right ahead and gave his charge: "God authorized and
commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and
near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Then instruct them in the practice of all I have
commanded you. I'll be with you as you do this, day after day after day, right
up to the end of the age."

Spirit,
- Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you all the days (perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the [very] close and consummation of the age. Amen (so let it be).
Contemporary English Version (CEV) – 1995 American Bible Society
