Judeo Christian Vision and Mission

Comments Off on Judeo Christian Vision and Mission, Filed in Sermons and Media, Videos, by COG Webcast.

“All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always even to the end of the age” Matthew 28:19-20

 The Judeo Christian vision and mission were the motivating forces behind the preaching of the gospel to the world in the first century. This vision is alive today and gives us hope for the future in the Kingdom of God.

The mission is the work that God has given his covenant people to accomplish through the ages. And, though the methods have changed as technology has advanced, the essence of the mission is the same for us in this century as it was for the Judeo Christian believers in the first century after Christ. We are to be the living testimony to God’s way of life, the light on the hill, the salt of the earth.
