Till He returns in glory!

Then he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next to the synagogue.
Acts 18:7

Paul said he was going to go to the Gentiles, and to the Gentiles he went! Titius was a Gentile who was “a worshiper of God.” Even though he had not yet be evangelized with the gospel of Jesus, this Gentile worshiped God.

To be sure, his worship was incomplete (not knowing Christ). But God has His people, even among the Gentiles. It is interesting to me that Titius was not identified as merely “a believer in God,” but as “a worshiper of God.” Even though he did not know Christ when Paul initially went to him—and therefore his worship was incomplete—Titius knew enough to worship God. Truly God makes Himself known. It may only be in general at first, but as it was in the case of Titius, God reveals Christ through the declaration of the gospel.

This is why missions must continue until Christ comes again. We must continue to preach Christ and the gospel so that God’s people from every tribe, tongue, and nation can be saved through faith in Christ. While some go to the ends of the earth to preach Christ, we who are not called to go, can and must support those who do go, with our prayers and with financial assistance…

Till He returns in glory!
