What is Our Mission for the World?
Speaker: Jason Whitley Series: The Commitments and Distinctives of Our Local Church
At the start of the New Testament, much of Christ’s parting words to His disciples leading up to His Ascension were instructions regarding their mission to the world. This involves evangelism and discipleship.
Evangelism does not mean conforming people to our moralistic standards or changing their start of living. It means to persuade people to be reconciled to God.
