Our goal is to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with those who
have never heard His Name. To date, millions of people in the 10/40 window have
not heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. And Less than 10% of Christian giving is
provided for missions to unreached people.
In contrast, most of the church
giving today (general funds, funds for the needy, etc.) are spent within
first
world nations. Christian churches build large facilities, and spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars on music systems, air conditioning, cushioned pews and carpet.
2013 Christmas Service |
While there may be nothing
wrong with this, the faithful believer must always ask God to guide him/her to
where true ministry needs to be done, and the wise use of the resources at our disposal. Isn’t it better to
allocate funds for missions and evangelism?
In Hebrews 9:27 we are reminded that, "Just as man is destined to
die once, and after that to face judgment…”
People all over the world are dying and going to hell. Is not missionary work the one task
we cannot do once a person has passed away? And isn’t it better today, for
cultural reasons and given the difficulty and expense of sending first world
missionaries to third world countries, that God is now using local
evangelists, missionaries, and pastors to reach out to indigenous and other developing
world communities?
It is God's imperative to us to
spread the gospel of Christ before His second coming. In fact, if mission
support given to first world missions in developing countries is discounted, only 1% or less of giving is being used to support
native missions.
Is this good stewardship? Are we prioritizing our resources the way God
wants us to?
Native pastors are suffering
great hardship. Their families often have only one good meal a day. Yet they go
to new villages and preach the gospel, care for people, and befriend those who
are in need. We hope to help them
with only $40 USD a month. This amount allows the family to purchase
their monthly supplies. The evangelist can then spend more time on the mission
field.
Tribal Village Women |
There are many native missionaries
serving in places such as the mountains of Odisha, like brother Bihit, where he
and his fellow workers have been able to reach hundreds of Tribal villagers
with the gospel and plant dozens of house churches. We need to support these fine workers in the
Lord.
