Scripture Text:

Matthew 24:4 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a

testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. (NIV)

Sermon Title: A Mission Mindset

Matthew 24:14 that reads …And this gospel of the kingdom will be

preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will

come,

POINT ONE: In order for us to understand our role, we should first understand

our mission.

Matthew 28:16 (NIV) 16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain

where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but

some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and

on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all

nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy

Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I

am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

Commission is a noun which means

1. the act of committing or entrusting a person, group, etc., with supervisory

power or authority.

Mindset. Now that we understand what the mission is defined as, what about the

word mindset. Mindset is a noun which means

1. a fixed attitude or disposition, or mood

Put this together and a “mission mindset” is a way of thinking and operating that

is deeply rooted in a clear and compelling purpose or objective.

John 6:4- “For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes

in him shall have eternal life and I will raise them up at the last day”.

Their accomplishments were as follows:

1. Spreading the gospel

2. Founding the early church

3. Eyewitness testimony

4. Authorship of new testament writings

5. Demonstrating transformative faith

6. Establishing apostolic succession

Mark 16:15 “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation”

POINT TWO – The mission continues to be global and big and the end will come.

Matthew 24:14 reads …And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the

whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

John 6:4- “For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes

in him shall have eternal life and I will raise them up at the last day”. According

to Revelation 21:5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making

everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy

and true.” 6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the

Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring

of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their

God and they will be my children. 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the

murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and

all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the

second death.” It goes on a little further to show us about the names in the book

of life in Revelation 21:27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who

does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the

Lambs book of Life

We must have a mantra that requires:

1. Inspiration and Motivation

2. Beyond profit

3. Humility and Service

4. Action Oriented

5. Accountability

LIFE APPLICATION - Here’s our life application

a. Remember “he who wins souls is wise” or Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the

righteous is a tree of life, and the one who is wise saves lives

b. Go back to the 5 names, build yourself up on Word on Wednesday

c. Use your discipleship tool kit
