Should all Christians pursue missions?

1 Min Read

It is good to hear that there are young people out there pursuing missions because that’s a pursuit the Lord has placed upon the church.

We all are responsible for the fulfillment of the Great Commission (Matt. 28:18–20). Whether one is actually going as a missionary or contributing to that endeavor, all of us are responsible to fulfill the Great Commission because Christ is Lord. Because He is Lord, we have to do what He commands us to do.

So I would encourage all Christians, not just young people, to make a priority of missions.
