The nations are not gathered in automatically. If God has promised to bless "all the families of the earth," he has promised to do so "through Abraham's seed" (Genesis 12:3, 22:18). Now we are Abraham's seed by faith, and the earth's families will be blessed only if we go to them with the gospel. That is God's plain purpose.
John StottMission arises from the heart of God Himself and is communicated from His heart to ours. Mission is the global outreach of the global people of a global God.
