The biblical topic of Global Missions is rooted in the Great Commission, where Jesus commands his disciples to "go and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19).

As Christians are called to be ambassadors for Christ, they are compelled to participate in global missions, as seen in Romans 10:14-15, where the apostle Paul emphasizes the need for messengers to be sent to proclaim the gospel to those who have not yet heard. Through global missions, Christians fulfill their role in advancing the kingdom of God, as envisioned by Jesus in his prayer that God's will would be done "on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
