Developing A Biblical World View

HOW WILL THE TASK BE COMPLETED?

When we view the world waiting for the Gospel message, we are overwhelmed at the enormous task we face:

-Millions of people yet without Christ. -Hundreds of languages without God's Word. -Hundreds of people groups without a Gospel witness among them.

It is overwhelming when we see the multitudes like sands of the sea in Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Calcutta, and Hong Kong. Uncounted thousands, and each individual should hear, understand, and have opportunity to respond to the Gospel message.

When we look at the world with masses of people yet unreached by the Gospel, our desire should be as that of the Apostle Paul:

Yea, so have I strived to preach the Gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation;

But as it is written, To whom He was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand. (Romans 15:20-21)

This challenge will only be met as each believer becomes a World Christian. You will learn more about this in the next chapter.
