[edit] RUP

C.T. Studd went to Congo, Central Africa, because at that time there was no Christian in that whole area. His goal was, that he and his mission wanted only to serve among a people, which did not yet know the Gosple. He spoke about the remaining unevangelized peoples (RUP), WEC International is still using this word, when they speak about the Least-Reached peoples groups or Unreached People Group. Matthew 24:14 is the background for this understanding, because Jesus will only come back, when all peoples in this world have heard the Gospel. We as Christians are challenged to get out to them, who are remaining unevangelized.
