The Lord has begun to form a multi-ethnic and multilingual church. But this is the beginning. The task of taking the gospel is not just to those here and the county who need to listen and re-listen until God touches them and brings them to his feet (as there are some of you this morning that’s still resisting the call of salvation) but to the ends of the earth. The church, which is us, must be obedient and take this message to these people. The question should not be, “Is it me Lord?” But “Where do you want me to go Lord and when?” We are all called to go and make disciples.
How did Christianity (the movement of Christians who carry the message of salvation everywhere they go) or the church born (and grown) outside the confines of Judaism and spread to other ethnic groups? What does it teach us in our work as messengers of Christ? What does it teach us as a church here? There are five elements that helped to give birth and form Christianity.
