The Calling and the Mission

The Calling and the Mission enjoy Doodjoy (Genesis 12:1–3) One day, God called Abram and told him to leave his country and go to the land He would show him. Abram believed, obeyed the Word, and set out; he became the father of the great spiritual nation of those who have faith. God changed his name to Abraham and blessed him. Abraham had two sons: Ishmael, the ancestor of Muslims, and Isaac, the ancestor of the Hebrews—and thus of the people of Israel. However, the promise God made to Abraham was linked to Isaac, the father of Israel (Jacob). God therefore chose Israel as the people through whom He would make Himself known to the world and entrusted them with this mission. The mission consists of bringing all peoples to the one true God. (Deuteronomy 6:4) Israel failed in its mission due to unfaithfulness, and God subsequently withdrew the mission from them. Nevertheless, Israel remained God's people. Through His people, God would open a way to establish the Church, equipping it to fulfill the mission. It was this mission that Jesus revealed to His disciples in these words: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit..." (Matthew 28:19). Through faith in Christ, Christians are these disciples. Consequently, every Christian bears the responsibility to fulfill the mission—just as Israel did—and enjoys the same level of blessing. Christians are co-heirs with Christ of the Kingdom of Heaven. They are members of God's people, just as the Hebrews are. "To all who received Him, to those who believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—children born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." (John 1:12–13) The mission of the Church is to bring the message of salvation to the world. Every Christian is a light in the world for this purpose.
