The Salvation Army's reasons for world evangelisation as on the internet site...
World Evangelisation is:
- Enabling every person on earth to hear the gospel in a way they can understand, and have a valid opportunity to become a Christian
- An approach to man in his totality and the world in its totality in order to transform, perfect and save them
We are committed to World Evangelisation because:
- We accept that Christ’s Great Commission applies to us
- We know how much the salvation made possible by Jesus has transformed us, so we want to share it with others throughout the world
- Our activity, however small it may be, makes a contribution to world justice and peace
- It helps prepare for the future coming of Jesus. (Mark 13:10)
And also because:
- It is within the traditions of our movement and the church
- It stimulates the life of the home church
Salvationist Involvement
Salvationists share in world evangelisation by:
- Regarding themselves as being involved in Christian mission locally, wherever they are
- Being involved in mission with their corps/congregation/centre
- Supporting the International Self-Denial Fund
- Partnership with another part of the world church
- Praying for a selected part of the world – through the Prayer Covenanters’ League and in other ways
- Considering God’s call to ‘go into all the world’ (Mark 16: 15)

I don't like that this is written on our "Internet Site" but not on the walls of our buildings for the soldiery to examine and live out.
