Christ's mission

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he 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, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord" (Luke 4:18-19). 

Christ was anointed and sent by the Father to preach to, heal, and liberate:

the poor
the broken-hearted
the captives
the blind
the bruised

Comforting, no?
