Yes...and God is the "god" of only part of the world,
Jesus is only the savior of part of the world, Paul
proclaimed that the gospel had been taught to
part of the world (well, the whole world, but we know
what he "meant").  It makes sense now...God is only
talking about that small portion of the world.
