1968 Council on Evangelism Case Study Discussion
Historical Perspectives on Pentecostal Missionaries 41
human history, motivated by love for Christ and obedience to the great commission, still remains at the heart of the movement The challenge of communicating the gospel to the unreached millions still enlists a steady number of missionary candidates. At the 1968 Council on Evangelism, a special gathering called to address the world mission of the Assemblies of God, a new song was introduced entitled “Our Mission.” Yet today its lyrics reflect the heartbeat of the largest sector of classical Pentecostalism. Verse four and the chorus read:
Christ only is our message; He died, He lives again. Ascended, soon returning, To rule the hearts of men. Constrained by love eternal, Can we whose hearts are stirred, Endued with mighty power, Withhold the Living Word?
Til the world shall hear. Bound in sin and fear. Our mission never ending, Til the world shall hear. (Zilch 1969:267-268)
Most Pentecostal missionaries, both past and present, including those who have suffered and those who have not, would probably join in the singing and clap their hands.
Notes l.This study is dedicated to the memory of the late Morris O. Williams
(1920-1991), an Assemblies of God missionary, field director for Africa, missiologist, and mentor. His passionate belief in indigenous church principles and the distribu- tion of the Spirit’s gifts in the universal church led him to champion the concept of partnership in mission between the sending agency and the national mission churches. He died on 8 June 1991, shortly before he was scheduled to preach a sermon on heaven.
healing, and the second coming of Christ, considered to be the four pillars of Pentecostal teaching. This formulation has been more widely known as the “full gospel,” tracing its origin to the Holiness Movement For more information, see Donald W. Dayton, (1987).
