The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not about reforming society or governments. His message summons all men to repent and join a radically new social order and unique political reality, the Kingdom of God. His message is contrary to the political ideologies of the present world order. We must respond positively to his invitation since the end of the age is approaching when the existing order will disappear from the planet.

The Mission
Jesus commanded his followers to announce the same message he preached: He summarized it as the “Good News of the Kingdom of God.” His Church would establish this Kingdom in unexpected and paradoxical ways. By his return, his sovereignty over all nations will be established and his “enemies” will be subdued, including the last one, “death.” Until then, his disciples must proclaim his message to the “uttermost parts of the Earth.”
