Spiritual Triage

If two men come into the emergency room, one with a cold and one with a gunshot wound, which one should we help first? It is simply obvious that we should help the one in the most need. More then likely though, the one who is shot with a gun will require more attention then if you decide to help the one with a cold. The person with a cold can probably find some medicine elsewhere and can be easily treated... but the man who has a gunshot wound isn't as likely to be able to care for himself.

This is the same view that we should have toward the lost people in this world. When we look at the world and see an area that has less resources and less evangelism and less access to the gospel then another who does have access and does have resources, it should be obvious to us that we should pursue the one that has the greatest need. But if you choose to help the one with the greater need it will take more work and time and hardship to be able to complete the job as opposed to the one that doesn't have as great of a need.

God will be glorified by every people group on this planet. What part are you going to play in His symphony?
