The Spirit of Missions

Christ the Comforter

Psalm 96:3 (NKJV) Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.

Matthew 28:19 (TLB) Therefore go and make disciples in all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Mark 16:15 (TLB) And then he told them, "You are to go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone, everywhere.”

Acts 1:8 (NKJV) But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."

The Spirit of Christ is the spirit of missions, and the nearer we get to him, the more intensely missionary we must become. Henry Martyn (1781-1812)  Draper's Book of Quotations for the Christian World.
