It has been said that God cannot lead you based on facts you don’t know. The reason much of Christianity’s resources are misplaced isn’t because people are opposed to reaching unreached people. The reason is because many well-meaning pastors, elders, deacons, and church members are unaware of the global status of Christianity.
Jesus says in Mark 1:38, “Let us go on to the next town that I may preach there also, for that is why I came out.” Jesus wasn’t satisfied with one town, or group of people hearing about him, so neither should we.
If Revelation 7:9 is true: that every tribe, tongue, people, and nation will be represented before God in heaven, then our job should be to focus the majority of our time and resources in reaching those tribes, tongues, peoples, and nations that have yet to be represented.
