The Christian's mission is not, "getting to heaven," which is actually our journey, which leads to our destination.
Our mission includes...
Living by faith, not by sight;
Rejoicing in the Lord always;
Denying ourselves, taking up our cross daily and following Him;
Living in the light, life, power of the Spirit;
Manifesting the life of Christ in the face of temptation, loss, persecution, hardship, difficulty;
Keeping God's commandments and doing what is pleasing in His sight;
Walking in the light as He is in the light;
Being perfect in love as He is perfect in love;
Being holy as He is holy;
Being pure, even as He is pure;
Being righteous, as He is righteous;
Telling others that Christ died and arose to save them from their sins.
Sharing the whole counsel of God, so that believers will follow Christ fully and serve God in righteousness and holiness all the days of their lives.
Bearing the fruit of the Spirit;
Growing in the grace and knowledge of Christ;
Overcoming temptation;
Enduring affliction;
Rejoicing in everything;
Giving thanks for all things;
Humbling ourselves under the mighty hand of God .
