The Gospel is for all nations
2nd Corinthians 2:14
Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
We manifest the savour of his knowledge in every place.
Matthew 28:19
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
The phrase, ‘all nations’ is not talking about all the countries of the world.
“All nations” in the scriptures is a relative term used for both Israel
(the circumcised) and the Gentiles (Uncircumcised).
Gentiles refer to non-Jews. In simple terms, all nations refer to Jews and Gentiles. Nation is the word used for groups. There are only two groups- Jews and Gentiles.
This is consistent with the following verses of the scriptures
1st Corinthians 12:13, Romans 1:16, Galatians 3:8,14.
All nations should be Jews and gentiles.
Mark 16:15 ... all the world…
Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
The uttermost parts of the earth was to let the Jews know that the gospel is for everybody.
It took a while for those people to preach to non-Jews. From Acts 1 to Acts 10, they only preached the gospel to Jews. Paul’s arrival on the scene brought to the fore that the gospel is for all nations. That is one of the reasons he was accused in Act 22.
The gospel is for everybody.
Jesus just rose from the dead and told the people he died for them to go and preach the gospel of what he has done. Preach it to every nation, to everybody. Anyone who has received the gospel has received a responsibility.
Confession:
I believe the gospel is for everybody. I have received the responsibility to preach the Gospel to all nations. I believe that everybody has a right to hear the Gospel.
