Abstract

The Christian mission refers to the participation of the members of the Church to the process of fulfilling God’s will on Earth. The members of the Church, both the clergy and the other Christians, form God’s people that perpetuate the sending of Jesus Christ and The Holly Spirit on Earth, therefore, having themselves a vocation as missionaries. The missionary responsibility of man has its source in Christ, the Archetype of Adam. Man - a theological being created by the image of Christ - is constituted as a missionary. The embodiment in the Church (“The body of Christ”) through the Holly Mysteries provides man with legitimacy in his mission. By virtue of the Christological ontology, the man becomes an organ of Christ, through Whom Christ Himself achieves his works in the Church and in the world until the end of the time. Christ is the Prophet or the Teacher and in Him, the life of God is revealed to people. From a missionary perspective, the apostolic constitution and the quality of a member of the Church turn each human being into a propagator of the Gospel.
