What Does Luke 4:43 Mean?

Jesus Christ came preaching the Kingdom of God, His singular and constant focus throughout His ministry. He declared that He had to go and preach the Kingdom of God to other cities as well, demonstrating that this message was what He wanted proclaimed at all times. He also sent His disciples out, instructing them to preach the Kingdom of God too.




Luke 4:43

Is it not clear that Jesus Christ came preaching the Kingdom of God (Matthew 4:17-23; 9:35; 10:7; 24:14; Luke 4:43; 8:1; 9:2, 60; Luke 16:16)? Does this not suggest that this was what He wanted to be preached at all times? It certainly seems that way! It was His only focus! He says He had to go and preach to other cities the Kingdom of God, and He sent His disciples out, saying, "You preach the Kingdom of God too."
