Sending Out the Twelve

1 Then aHe called His twelve disciples together and bgave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.  
2 aHe sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.  
3 aAnd He said to them, “Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.  
4 a“Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.

Luke 9:1-6

Do you see how broad it is? He does not say anything about the Gentiles. He says nothing about going to Israel. Have you figured out why? Because Theophilus, with that name, was very likely a Gentile. It is not absolutely certain, but it is a pretty good indication that he was a Gentile. The implication, the inference throughout the entire book of Luke is that this is something that God primarily intended for Gentiles to read. He did that so there would be common ground with everybody. That is why there's no reference to things like the law and the prophets, teachings like the Sermon on the Mount. There is always a universal approach. We have teachings that would fit anybody at anytime.
