I have a question about Matthew 10:6-7 KJV [6] but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. [7] And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. At this point Jesus hasn't gone to the cross. What would they have understood that to mean?
Preach the same message John the Baptist preached and what Jesus preached was the same words "Repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand." Also the great teaching of the sermon on the mount as well as the signs that followed, there was plenty to share. They also healed people and one of the signs in the OT that God was working was healing..(Psalm 67:1-2). My thoughts anyway.. God Bless.
