The Ends of the Earth



Isaiah 49:5-6--- "the Lord says, Who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, to bring Jacob back to Him, so that Israel is gathered to Him.....indeed He says, 'It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also give You as a light to the Gentiles, that You should be My salvation to the ends of the earth.'"

Reasons to take the Gospel to the ends of the earth:
-Christ has been given the nations, the ends of the earth, as His inheritance. Psalm 2:7-8, Revelation 5:9...And we have been given the task of taking the message of the cross to the nations (2 Cor 5:18-21)...Anything less than ALL nations, peoples, tribes, and tongues is too small for Jesus!!
-How will they believe in Him in whom they have not heard? Romans 10:13-14.... and if they do not believe Christ they will not be saved from the wrath of God! John 3:36
-Because He told us so...Mt 28:19-20, Mark 16:15.

"All nations whom You have made shall come and worship before You, O Lord, and shall glorify Your Name" Ps 86:9
