Question
Should missions include mercy ministries and caring for the poor alongside preaching the gospel? (Spanish with English Subtitles)
Answer
Of course! We must always think that the gospel is not only the verbal proclamation of God's message. The gospel is all of God's actions through his people, through his spirit, through his church and in all the ways he uses to reach mankind. Then God is not only trying to heal his people or trying to teach his people, but also trying to save his people. And all of this is a unified process. The integrity of the gospel should not be broken. We do the gospel a great disservice when we separate these parts, and we have separated them. I believe that our words and our work should remain unified.
