For the Nations Also

Jesus of Nazareth fulfills the promise to bless all nations in Abraham. Christ is the Patriarch’s Heir and Seed.

Basic to the biblical doctrine of redemption is the covenant with Abraham and his “Seed.” It included the promise that “all the nations of the Earth would be blessed in him,” and the Patriarch would have innumerable descendants. How and when are the nations blessed? Who is Abaham’s “Seed” destined to inherit the promises?

Message of the Gospel

Jesus summoned his disciples to proclaim the Good News of his Kingdom to every inhabited corner of the Earth.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is not about reforming society or governments. His message summons all men to repent and join a radically new social order and political reality, the Kingdom of God. His message is contrary to the political ideologies of the present world order. It subverts mankind's philosophies, political ideologies, and popular beliefs.

The Mission

The mission of the Church is to proclaim the Good News of God’s Kingdom to all nations without exception until Jesus returns – Matthew 24:14.

Jesus commanded his followers to announce the same message he preached. He summarized it as the “Good News of the Kingdom of God.” His Church would spread this Kingdom on Earth in unexpected and paradoxical ways. His sovereignty over all nations would be established and his “enemies” would be subdued by the day of his return. Until then, his disciples were summoned to proclaim his message to the “ends of the Earth.”
