Mission in the General Epistles

Strike the Match with J. D. Payne

Few scholars have written on the topic of mission in the General Epistles. In this episode, I discuss how these epistles address the mission of God to bless the nations. These writings offer a glimpse into some of the struggles of the early Church. The authors were much concerned with the holiness and righteous living of the saints during their trials. Their walk with the Lord and fellowship with one another were critical to the global work to which they had been called.

Here we understand the blessing of the nations comes through: 1) Steadfastness in Suffering; 2) Lifestyles Lived before the World; and 3) Engagement as the Day Approaches.
