Jesus had a plan to disperse the message of the Kingdom. First to his peeps and then to the rest of the world.
Matthew 10:5, 18 5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: "Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the Samaritans, 6 but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. ...18 and you will be dragged before governors and kings because of me, as a testimony to them and the Gentiles.
Do we ignore the fact that Jesus had a plan for dispersing the message of the Kingdom? First to his Jewish brothers and sisters and then to everyone else.
Note: I wonder if this relates to how we should disperse the message of the Kingdom today? So much of the "church" doesn't know Jesus' teachings and it is easy to just reject the established "church" since they claim to know them. On the other hand, is it time to leave the established "church" behind and focus on taking the message to people who have been rejected by the established church (i.e. the emergent church movement)?
