ONE GOSPEL, ALL NATIONS, THROUGH HIS CHURCH

Three things that ought to be together, three things that shouldn’t be taken partly -- Gospel, Church, All nations. But why does it seem that many of us take only two and leave out the other? We accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, we became part of His Church, and that’s all. But is that it?

Why do we forget the NATIONS?

“For God so loved the world!” He is after the world -- every tribe, every nation, and every tongue. But does the church know? Or does the church see? Does the church hear the cry of the lost souls and the lake of fire awaits them? Have we, the church –the Body -- not perceived what the Head –Christ -- has always had in his heart and mind (Luke 24:44-48)? He talked about it countless times.  


The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who we claim to be our Lord is after all nations –all the nations! And we call ourselves his followers. But what are we living for? Or should I say, what are we dying for?
