Why missions?

1. God's glory demands it: "Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!"
   (Psalms 96:3)
   
2. God's love compels us: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16)
   
3. Lost people matter to God:
   "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost."
   (Luke 19:10)
   
4. Missions increases joy: "Let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you judge the peoples with equity and guide the nations upon earth."
   (Psalms 67:4)
