The Gospel Is For Everyone



For the scripture says, “Whoever believes in Him will not be disappointed.”

For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for “whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

Romans 10:11-13

Christianity is not an exclusive club; it is the inclusive love of God for all mankind. 

We should not short change the ability of God to reach the hearts of all men and women and children.  We are amiss if we believe that there are those for whom the Gospel is not intended.  We should rather strive to take the message of the Gospel to world. 

When we preach the Gospel that Jesus came to bring us back to God, and that His forgiveness is for everyone, we are opening the door for unbelievers to come into fellowship with God. 

So, when we hear people say, “Oh, I am too bad for God to care about,” or “My life is too messy for God to fix,” or “I have a religion,” we should speak the truth of the Gospel to them, like Paul did.  And say, the Lord is the Lord of all and “all will be saved who call Him.”
