The Church as Heir to God's Mission

Jesus entrusted the Church with the continuation of His mission. The command "go" that He gives us in the original Greek, poreuthentes, implies more than just physically moving. It means a life dedicated to a purpose, the continuous action of bringing the gospel to the world. We are called to make disciples (in Greek, mathēteuō), which means to train, teach, and guide others in the way of Jesus.

This mandate is global: all nations are the target of God's love. God's plan is inclusive, encompassing all ethnicities and cultures. It is not a mission limited to one place or one specific people but to all people everywhere. We are called to be agents of transformation in all contexts, sharing the love of God wherever we go.

Part of this mission is to baptize (in Greek, baptízō), which symbolizes purification, rebirth, and identification with Christ. Baptism is an act of obedience and a public proclamation of faith. When we baptize in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, we are declaring the reality of the triune God who saves, purifies, and gives new life.

As heirs of God's mission, we are called to live and share this message with boldness and love. Our goal is to make disciples, teach the ways of Christ, and bring people into fellowship with God through baptism. It is a mission that requires dedication, sacrifice, and total dependence on the Holy Spirit.
