Mission-minded people know the importance of discipleship. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jesus said, \u201cA disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher\u201d (Luke 6:40). That&#8217;s the whole point of being a disciple of Jesus: we imitate Him, carry on His ministry, and become like Him in the process. <\/p>\n<p>Romans 10:14-15 \u201cHow, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent?

They contend that if a person is not sharing Jesus, they are wasting time and money. <\/p>\n<p>Matthew 25:44-45 &#8220;They also will answer, &#8216;Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?&#8217; He will reply, &#8216;Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Proverbs 19:17 &#8220;Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward them for what they have done. <br \/>&#8221;<br \/>\n<br \/>\nRomans 12:13<br \/> <br \/>\nPhilippians 2:4<br \/> <br \/>\nLuke 3: 10-11<br \/> <br \/>\n<strong>Characteristic 8: You believe that being mission-minded is not a \u201ctask.\u201d It\u2019s a lifestyle. <\/strong><br \/>\nYou live out missions in your everyday life.

This lifestyle characteristics is our metamorphous (transformation) of thought characteristic.  We no longer desire anything of the world, our maintenance mindset is no longer in existence.
