1 Kings 8:41-51
Solomon continue prays for the foreigner and those who sin against you - for there is no one who does not sin - and God becomes angry with them and give them over to the enemy, who takes them captive to his own land, far away or near, and if they have a change of heart in the land where they are held captive, and repent and plead with you in the land of their conquerors. Hear their plea, and uphold their cause. Forgive all the offense they have committed against you.
This is the way for foreigners may become heirs of the Lord.
Why?
Solomon seems knew that Israelite will sin against the Lord and be captive to far away places. But for the Holy Name of the Lord and his love, anyone repent and plead with God, pray to the Lord to uphold their cause and forgive all the offense they have committed.
Solomon pray for this Temple for foreigner and Israelite for the Lord is the God over all the land, God is the Lord of universe.
How?
Let me hold the mission to preach gospel to others who does not know the Lord, include foreigners,
