In describing His earthly mission, Jesus said, The Lord "hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised" Luke 4:18.
Katika kueleza utume wake hapa duniani, Yesu alisema, Bwana amenitia mafuta kuwahubiri maskini habari njema. Amenituma kuwatangazia wafungwa kufunguliwa kwao, Na vipofu kupata kuona tena, Kuwaacha huru waliosetwa Luka 4:18.
