We Are The Lost Sheep ….

“These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go onto the road of the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’” Matthew 10:6

Christ told his disciples to go preach “The Kingdom of Heaven is Near” to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. The definition of lost is unable to find one's way; not knowing one's whereabouts. Another definition of Lost is denoting something that has been taken away or that cannot be recovered. Wouldn’t a people that were taken away from their homeland then scattered on ships to all nations of the world some, 400 years ago objectively be lost?

"And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone. And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.' Deuteronomy 28:64,68

We are the lost sheep that Christ, Yahshua is speaking about. We are the only people on the planet right now still living in the lands of our captivity. We need to be saved, we need to be redeemed and the Most High will send us a Savior:

“On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, I will break the yoke off their necks and tear off their bonds, and no longer will strangers enslave them. Instead, they will serve the LORD their God and David their king, whom I will raise up for them. As for you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid” Jeremiah 30:8-10

Our Salvation:

"Then say, “Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Your holy name, And glory in Your praise.” 1 Chronicles 16:35
