Paul's Mission

In many ways, deciding to follow Jesus is deciding to be a part of the greatest rescue mission in history – a mission that Jesus started and, ultimately, completes – but, by the power of the Holy Spirit, He allows us to partner with Him in this amazing mission. Really, our entire life is meant to make a difference by His Kingdom. Paul understood this sense of mission and purpose to his life, which is why he was “compelled by the Spirit” to “finish the race” and “complete the task” of “testifying to the good news of God’s grace”. Not all of us will suffer hardship like Paul or even be preachers like him, but all of us have a race, a task, and a mission – to live a life that is a witness to the person of Jesus through the power of His spirit. No matter our role in the Kingdom of God, we all have the Spirit’s power to make a difference in this world with our lives.
