Some 2000 years ago Jesus gave His disciples the command
to go and make disciples from all people groups (Matt. 28:19 TEV). Over
the past 2000 years the church has often neglected this task. Even today,
only about 1% of all money given to churches goes to reaching unreached people
groups, and fewer than 1% of Christians are directly involved in reaching them.
However, this does not excuse us from the task that Jesus gave us. When I look at all the evil in the world, I can see the earth groaning as if in the pains of childbirth, groaning in eager anticipation of Christ's return. We too groan inwardly, and long joyfully for His return. For only then will all things be made right, and every mouth silenced before the Almighty God. But we also believe that the Bible indicates that before Jesus returns the gospel must first be preached to all peoples (Mark 13:10 TEV). That is why my team will be seeking to reached unreached people groups with the message of Jesus Christ. We also do this because we love these people, and cannot bear the thought of them going to hell because we failed to tell them the message that we were so graciously given. We hope to accomplish this task by God's grace, through evangelism, discipleship, and youth mobilization. |
