Is the goal of missions to convert, to spread religious doctrine, or to teach us why we are human? Is missions a "moral lecture" dictated from a superior to an inferior faith or is it an exchange of thoughts on equal grounds? Do others need to be saved by us, or does each person receives his own salvation according to his deeds?
think again

Jesus instructed his disciples to teach the good news about how to achieve personal salvation to everyone. Christians are following the direct instructions of Jesus when they participate in missionary work.

You will not have a good afterlife just because of good deeds done here on earth. Missions are for people who otherwise would not hear about God. All people who join in on missions are spreading the great news and are saving thousands of souls.
