‘Men must know God. That is the one thing they must do. And this can mean nothing less than that God is eminently worthy to be known in all the length and breadth and height and depth of His Character. The Christian is a God-explorer. The Christian vision is the vision of God.
The missionary vision is the vision of God also. It is not something different from the Christian vision. It is the same vision being shared rather than merely enjoyed. It is the same vision being shared with men who have no natural taste for it, in the hope that God will create that taste so that they to will become “God-admirers.” Sharing the vision of God – that is the work of missions.’
–Tom Wells, A Vision for Missions (Banner of Truth, 1985)
In his book, A Vision for Missions, Tom Wells writes with the conviction that Christians must come back to first principles. Human needs and world conditions are not the starting point. The Gospel is a call to know and worship God. Available from the Liberty library. pic.twitter.com/xF0b3Ma4PI
