Romans 10:14, Christian Mission

Romans 10:14 (KJV) 14  How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

The Apostle Paul was moved by the Spirit of God to carry the gospel to the Gentile world. He was empowered by the Holy Spirit to bring the message of the gospel from Israel to Asia Minor and to Europe.

Acts 9:15-16 (KJV) 15  But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 16  For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.

Before his conversion, He was a persecutor of Christians. God saved him by a bright light from heaven that blinded him for three days. His sight was restored. He was grateful that he will not live a blind man forever. He hearkened to Jesus’ call to bring the gospel to the Gentile world. We are the beneficiaries of some men or women in the past who were willing to take time often with great personal sacrifice to bring the gospel to us. Thank God for such kind Christians who understood the mission to carry the gospel to the unsaved.

May the Lord use you to speak to someone so that he or she may believe and be saved. Amen.
