Who are the lost people Paul was so concerned about?
The lost people Paul was so concerned about were all lost people—those for whom Christ had already paid their sin debt, for whom the blood of Christ had been shed, and whose lives were ready to be ransomed by His resurrection from the dead.
Les teaches that as you study Paul's letters, one overriding thought emerges: Paul could never get lost people off his mind. That's all Paul could think about—lost people. He describes them as people for whom Christ had already paid their sin debt, people for whom the blood of Christ had been shed, and people whose lives were ready to be ransomed by virtue of His resurrection from the dead. This concern for the lost was central to Paul's ministry, even as he addressed the difference between Jew and Gentile and those who were members of the Body of Christ.
