God has not specified how we are to go, but He has said go to the lost. God has specified what we are to teach those who are lost- the gospel of Jesus Christ! God has also specified to whom we are to preach- all the world. He also specifies when you and I are to go. The answer is now due to the urgency and frailty of human life.

Understanding the command, the scripture, and the urgency- Who can you teach about the saving grace of our Holy God? Who can you remind of the love and righteousness of our Great Redeemer?
We all know those who have never obeyed and those who have left the Family. It is all of our job to reach the lost and unfaithful. Help them see the truth.
