Missions is an expression of God’s nature.

1 John 4:8, “The one who does not love has not become acquainted with God[does not and never did know Him], for God is love.[He is the originator of love, and it is an enduring attribute of His nature.] (AMP)

John 3:16, Jesus tells us that God so loved the world that he “gave” His one and only begotten Son. God is love and in his love, he sent us his son. Missions is a result of us as God’s people, being obedient to his command in Matthew 28. Jesus said if we love him, then we will obey his commands. In this way we can see that missions is indeed an expression of God’s nature.
