Truncated gospel leads to truncated mission
When you have a truncated gospel, you have a truncated mission. When the gospel is all about the salvation of lost individuals, then the mission of the gospel is all about reaching out to those lost individuals. We do our best to reach out to people, one by one by one. Yet when the gospel is about the kingdom of God, the mission of the gospel starts to take on all sorts of new dimensions. No longer is it just about helping individuals find salvation in Jesus. It is also about bringing the loving reign of God wherever there is the darkness of sin and death. -Allen Wakabayashi, Kingdom Come, Inter Varsity Press, p 107.
