There is something about the Father sending Jesus on a mission that is a model for Christ sending us on a mission, but the question is, in what way? What is the mission that Christ gave to us, and how is it related to his mission?
This is an important question, because some today argue that Jesus's statement in these two texts means that our mission is the same as Jesus's mission.
In this short essay, Scott Aniol argues that our mission—like Christ's mission—is to do what we have been uniquely commissioned by Christ to do.
