What is Missional?

by Pastor Alvin

Being the gospel wherever you are.

Missional word derives from Mission of God. Being Missional is a mission that is bigger than ourselves. When we choose to be in the room seemingly safe but living in fear, seemingly alive but slowly dying. If we are willing to step out of the house, although our lives are endangered, we get God's peace, experience excitement in doing God's works.

John 20:19-23

Being Missional means;
To Participate in God's Redemptive Mission,
That started with the Father, Modelled through the Son,
Empowered by the Spirit,
To represent the Gospel of God's reign in the world,
By the Consecrated Church

The end goal of the church is the soul of men. Today we have to do the works of God's word incarnated.

Why God chose to use us?
As we partner with God in this mission, we ourselves can be transformed.

If we do not live our lives with goal bigger than ourselves, we will fall into sin Acedia. We will die a slow death. God wanted us to experience His love. He wanted us to spread His love. God is the one who first love. At eden, God sacrificed an animal to sew a covering for Adam and Eve.

God the Father is the first missionary,
God the Son Jesus is the second missionary,
God the Holy Spirit is the third missionary in the Godhead

The Spirit of God needs to be given the space to work supernatural works. We live in the privilege era of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 18:17-20

As a consecrated church :
(1) We have the authority to correct
(2) We are here to support one another, prayer for one another
(3) We have to be a contrasting community

"Life isn't worth living for, unless you have something worth dying for."
- Martin Luther King JR -

I want to be Missional,
I want to participate in God's redemptive Mission,
That started with the Father,
Modelled through the Son,
Empowered by the Spirit,
to represent the gospel of God's reign in the world,
by the consecrated church
