“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
–Acts 1:8
A missionary friend of mine was telling me about an individual who came to Christ who had never heard the name of Jesus. It’s amazing, isn’t it? In our world of global communications and social media, there are still people who’ve never heard of the most important person to have ever lived!
Today, with close to 8 billion people on earth, we can think of the world roughly in thirds. There’s the third who have heard of Jesus Christ and claim to have responded in faith to His message. Then, there’s the third who have heard of Jesus, but haven’t responded. And then there’s the last third, who haven’t heard the message of Jesus Christ, and have virtually no access to the Gospel.
As Christians, our focus must be on getting the Gospel message to everyone. Only God can bring people to Himself, so it’s our job just to get His message of salvation to them. And that’s not beyond our reach in this generation!
When it comes to world evangelization, you have a role to play. Pray, give, and go to the ends of the earth to show Christ to the world. We can reach the world for Christ, but we have to work together!
PRAY, GIVE, AND GO TO SHARE THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST WITH THOSE AROUND THE WORLD WHO’VE NEVER HEARD IT!
