Psalm 87
Global missions have been revolutionized in recent years by the recognition that our task is not simply proclaiming the gospel in as many countries as possible for whatever may result but is to make the gospel accessible to all peoples. God's desire is that all the peoples of the world know HIm and become a part of His Kingdom.
When Jesus gave the Great Commission and told us to disciple the nations His expression literally meant all the ethnic-linguistic people groups of the world.
God is tracking the progress of global evangelization and noting which peoples have representatives in His kingdom. Once the gospel has touched every people group, and a representative remnant of believers has been gathered into God's kingdom, Jesus indicated that will complete the Great Commission and signal His return.
