Matthew 10:6 MSG: “Go to the lost, confused people right here in the neighborhood.”
Jesus was sending out 12 Apostles to convince the Israelites that the Kingdom of God was at hand. As evidential proof, he empowered the them to cast our demons and heal diseases in his name. Jesus felt that there were far too many spiritually lost and confused people in their own backyard, so start there.
It’s not so different nowadays. In spite of the US being founded as a Christian nation, there are still too many lost and confused among us, and that number seems to be ever-increasing. God’s desire is that none would perish, so He continues to equip believers to spread the Good News of Jesus in our own cities.
Knowing that God wants to include everyone in his Kingdom gives us hope!
