Good morning people who follow the example of the apostle Paul.

Romans 1:14-15 MEV I am a debtor both to the Greeks and to the barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise. So, as much as is in me, I am ready to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

There is not a single person on the planet who was not created for a relationship with God.

Do you believe this?

Revelation 7:9-10 MEV Then I looked. And behold, there was a great multitude which no one could count, from all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands. They cried out with a loud voice: “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

John received a revelation from Jesus about a time when there will be an innumerable number of people from all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues who will be standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, praising God because salvation belongs to our God.

All nations and tribes within nations and every linguistic group! All dressed in white robes which speaks of the imputed righteousness of God. All worshipping God for His salvation!

Every member of your family was created by God for relationship with God. There are no exceptions.

Every neighbour and work colleague of yours was created by God for relationship with God. There are no exceptions.

Every enemy of every description was created by God for relationship with God. There are no exceptions.

Paul – who was formerly the terrorist Saul – was so transformed by the love and grace of God that he gave his life for the cause of Christ, even to the point of calling himself a debtor. This was not about paying the price that only Jesus could pay, but it was a declaration that he owed God everything and he owed people the opportunity to hear the good news about this Jesus who saved him.

May we live life in the same way.
