Garrett-Thrasher Debate

Several hundred religious debates have been published in book form since the commencement of controversies during the Reformation. However, no debate is known to have been published on the issue discussed by Eddie K. Garrett, Sr., of the Primitive Baptist Church and Thomas N. Thrasher, Sr., of the church of Christ. Mr. Garrett affirmed the following proposition: "The 'Great Commission' recorded in Matthew 28:18-20 and Mark 16:15-18 was given to the apostles alone, and expired when they expired."
