Abstract

Why is compliance with the missio Dei so important? The answer is simple. In the Holy Scriptures the Eternal states that he is committed to bringing His Kingdom to its maximum expression. The Kingdom of God is that new order of events begun in Christ which, when finally completed by him, will involve a proper restoration not only of man's relationship to God, but in every possible sphere of psychology. This article will be an attempt to succinctly summarize the understanding of the notion of missio Dei and its acceptance and development in protestant missionary theology, executed as an order given to the Church, in particular that developed by cross-cultural missionaries in an attempt to proclaim and signal the Kingdom of God between peoples who profess Islam as their system of faith and practice in a contextualized manner and in coexistence. It is not Christianity that Muslims need to see. It's Jesus.
