GLOBAL MISSIONS

Matthew 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations..."

From the opening pages of the Bible, God purposed to bring His gracious blessing of salvation to the nations through an individual, the promised Messiah, Jesus Christ. The church now carries out this purpose according to Jesus’s concluding words in Matthew 28:18–20—to go and make disciples of all the nations. And the instrument God intends to use for reaching the nations are his missionary people (1 Peter 2:4-–2).
