Which statement reflects the AG's missionary emphasis?

• A. Global evangelism, church planting, and support of missions through prayer, giving, and sending workers.
• B. Local outreach only.
• C. Missionary work is optional.
• D. Missions are funded by government grants.

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is the Assemblies of God’s emphasis on global missions: spreading the gospel worldwide, planting churches, and sustaining missions through prayer, financial giving, and sending workers. This reflects a proactive, collective approach where believers participate not just in local outreach but in a worldwide effort to reach all nations and establish churches through coordinated evangelism and support. Local outreach alone narrows the focus and misses the international scope; saying missionary work is optional undermines the sense of mandate; and suggesting government funding misaligns with how missions are mobilized—through the church and its people, not government programs.
