Witness to the World
The Christian Mission in Theological Perspective.
A great deal of uncertainty exists in the church as to what mission really is.
The shifts in political power, away from the traditionally Christian West; the
call for a moratorium and the other critical voices from the Third World
churches; and the increasing self-assurance and missionary consciousness among
adherents of non-Christian religionsùall these have given rise to the question
whether Christian mission work still makes sense, and if it does, what form it
should take.
Is mission identical to evangelism in the sense of proclaiming eternal
salvation? Does it include social and political involvement, and if so, how?
Where does salvation take place: only in the Church, or in the individual, or
in society, or in the 'world', or in the non-Christian religions?
The picture is one of change and complexity, tension and urgency. The answers
we give to these questions must be consonant with the will of God and relevant
to the situation in which we find ourselves.
