• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The church is missionary by nature and when it ceases to be missionary, it fails one of its primary tasks and ceases to be a church. The church is bound up to with its call to live out and to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth until the end of time (Kirk, 1999). Mission, therefore, is the fundamental reality of the Christian life. This holds equally true for Melodiya Tshwane (MyT) in Pretoria. It is called to be a missionary church. This book investigates the understanding, attitudes and application of Article 4 of the Belhar Confession by Melodi ya Tshwane (MyT). It outlines the current mission praxis of MyT and its missionary activities, the church's missionary calling in line with Article 4 of the Belhar Confession which describes God as the missionary God, who is God of Justice. The book provides guiding principles of being missional. The analysis and principles given should be useful to the professionals in the field of theology, individuals and Christian groups and NGO's interested in Christian outreach. The book can thus help you to "stand where God stands" in your daily life.
