Who Cares About Unbelievers?
READ: Ephesians 3:2-12
Do you ever find yourself thinking that you are better than people who don't belong to your church? Do you ever find yourself ignoring the fact that the souls of unbelievers are important to God? We must remember that salvation is to be proclaimed to everyone and not only to a chosen few.
In the letter to the Ephesians, the apostle Paul writes to the congregation about how, through Christ's death on the cross, "the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel...and sharers together in the promise of Jesus Christ." Paul explains how he was given the special task of proclaiming the good news to both Jew and Gentile. Salvation through Jesus is still for all people today. God shows no favoritism, but rather, desires that all men be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. Thank God for His gift of salvation by sharing His Gospel with everyone, especially unbelievers.
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT: Why is it important for us to be concerned for an unbeliever's lack of faith? How is a person who doesn't care for the non-Christian's soul unthankful?
PRAYER SUGGESTIONS: Thank Jesus for the ultimate sacrifice He made for our sins. Ask God to bring His Word to unbelievers. Ask God to bless those who are proclaiming His love to unbelievers.
