Abstract

This article engages the connection between Christian identity and mission, with a specific focus on international mission, and points to the basis on which Christian identity can be perceived as mission identity. The understanding of Christian identity as mission identity is grounded in several partial motives for mission, which are presented in this article: love, biblical motive, needs and calling. First of them is addressed in a bigger detail – the Cape Town Commitment from the Third Lausanne Congress on World Evangelisation in 2010. The author argues for the justifiability of Christian mission identity, namely that mission, and more specifically international mission, is an integral part of what it means to be a Christian. The article considers possible outcomes for the current Czech ecclesial context in the reflection of the Cape Town Commitment challenges to the Czech Evangelicals’ attitudes to mission and to their mission practice within the Czech Republic and the Czech mission abroad.
