What does the Bible say about the mission of the church?

Answered in 1 source

The mission of the church is to preach the gospel, not to address physical needs.

The Bible clearly defines the mission of the church as preaching the gospel, as seen in Romans 15:20 where Paul expresses his desire to spread the good news. While the church can help those in need, such as orphans and widows, it is not primarily tasked with physical caregiving or humanitarian efforts. The gospel—focused on God's free and sovereign grace and the righteousness of Christ—is the central message believers are called to share with a lost world.
