Paper Pt VIII: Missional Implications

THE CHURCH AS THE KINGDOM AGENT: IMPLICATIONS FOR PRAXIS

The covenant community exists as the means to accomplish God’s purposes; this has considerable implication for what the Church attempts to accomplish, how we work toward those goals, and the rubric used to measure our success. Our task is to take our ‘theology and practice of the Kingdom,’ as revealed in the Cross, and apply it to the Church. We will draw fourteen specific implications by looking at how power and authority function in the Church, how justice is the mission of the Church, and what the Cross reveals about the success of the Church’s mission.
