And thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else’s foundation, but as it is written, “ those who have never been told of him will see, an those who have never heard will understand.”. Romans 15: 20-21. Paul’s aim was to preach the gospel in areas where no churches existed. His calling was not to plant churches where they already existed. Thereby he was fulfilling the prophesy of Isaiah 52:15. The servant was rejected by many (In His passion, Jesus was beaten into a shockingly inhuman mass of wounded flesh), so he will sprinkle many nations to make them clean. Kings (representing the nations) shall shut their mouths, awed by His wretched humiliation and exalted glory. “That which has not been told them” is revealed uniquely in the gospel. Today, the body of Christ has grossly, and inerrantly come to believe the road to reach non-believers is through a “feel good” or “genie Jesus” fix all mentality. The gospel needs no buttered up presentation. The Holy Spirit works within a man through the gospel itself not on presentation. The only outcome of a buttered up presentation is “False Converts.” I have yet to read anywhere that Paul used any worldly means of his day in his presentation of the gospel to reach the un-saved WHY should we? Learn the gospel and present it often and correctly it will change your life!
