Biblical – Theological Statement of Mission
Write a 1,500 word “Biblical-Theological Statement of Mission” in which you describe and defend from the Scriptures the mission of the church. Ensure that your Statement:
• Does NOT use Mt 28:18-20.
• Reflects the mission theology that you have learned through the class readings, lectures, and discussions (note: It is best to follow the order and organization of the topics as they have been covered in class unless you have a compelling reason to do otherwise);
• Grounds the church’s mission activities firmly in God’s Mission as evidenced in both the Old and New Testaments;
• Convinces Christians of the importance of engaging in mission activities; AND
• Uses the Gospel, rather than the Law, as motivation for mission;
• References (using footnotes) at least once in a meaningful way all of the sources that were read in class dealing with the theology of mission
