There is an artificial distinction made sometimes with the word “missionary.” Do you know how many times the word “missionary is used in the New Testament? Zero times.
John Venn describes what every Christian should be: “With the world under his feet, with heaven in his eye, with the gospel in his hand and Christ in his heart, he pleads as an ambassador for God, knowing nothing but Jesus Christ, enjoying nothing but the conversion of sinners, hoping for nothing but the promotion of the kingdom of Christ, and glorying in nothing but the cross of Christ Jesus, by which he is crucified to the world, and the world to him.” – Stott, The Contemporary Christian, p. 374
We are all missionaries. What we know about the cross we must tell.
What do you think is the best way to share what you know about the cross?
