New Testament and Mission Historical and Hermeneutical Perspectives
Johannes Nissen
This book brings together insights from two fields of study: biblical scholarship and missiology. The Great Commission in Matthew's Gospel is often seen as the biblical foundation for mission. The New Testament, however, reflects a variety of models for mission. Each model is examined with regard to historical meaning as well as hermeneutical significance. The final chapter focuses on three issues of great importance for the present situation: unity and diversity in mission, the gospel in relation to cultures, and Bible and dialogue models.
