“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost”. (Luke 19:10)

“And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold and one shepherd”. (John 10:16)

“And he said unto them, l must preach the Kingdom of’ God to other cities also; For therefore l am sent”. (Luke 4: 43)

“But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of israel”. (Matthew 15: 24)

From the quotations given above, it is clear that Jesus’s mission was to preach to all the twelve tribes of Israel that were scattered in the eastern countries extending from Palestine to India at the time of Jesus’s appearance. Of the twelve tribes of Israel there were at that time, only two tribes in Palestine while the other ten were found scattered in the lands stretching from Palestine to the confines of India. Jesus cannot be said to have been successful in his mission if he does not address and preach to the ten lost sheep of Israel. Jesus’s supposed death on the cross at the early age of 33 gives a shattering blow to the mission on which he was sent. The truth of the matter is that Jesus Christ, after his escape from the cross, did migrate to the East in search of the lost sheep for which there is ample historical evidence and is recently supported by the modern ‘finds’ of archaeology. Jesus found his lost sheep in Persia, Afghanistan and Kashmir, preached to them and comparatively he was much more successful here than in Palestine. He died a natural death and was buried in Srinagar, Kashmir.
