Hi,

I was just wondering if any of you guys ever heard of Gospel for Asia. This is one ministry that I whole heartedly support. If you have never heard of GFA then I recommed you go to this site and check it out and get a copy of their free book "Revolution in World Missions". It will change your perspective on reaching the lost.

This ministry is about reaching the people of the 10/40 window. This is the last frontier of taking the Gospel to the ends of the earth. GFA trains and equips native missionaries to take the gospel to their own people of their own language.

It takes well over 100,000 dollars a year to support one western missionary to take the gospel to a distant land. It only takes 1000 dollars a year to support one trained and equiped native missionary that takes the gospel deep into the 10/40. For the amount of money we spend on one western missionary we could be supporting 100 or more native missionaries a year.

I highly recommend you check this site out and also get the free book.

Remember this is what true Christianity is all about... taking the Gospel to the Ends of the Earth.

God bless

Yes, I've heard of this kind of thing before. But the one I saw in a Christian magazine, I don't think was specializing in Asia. One concern that I have:

How do I know if this guy is preaching a sound doctrine? :) Is he accountable to someone? What kind of lifestyle does he lead? All these things would be important for me, before I get involved.

Thoughts, anyone?

Their only mission and passion is to preach Jesus not some church doctrine.

This is quite commendable. But you do realize this is also agonizingly difficult? :t2: The man who hasn't been influenced by some sectarian doctrine is a rare bird indeed...

Yes I am aware of that....but you will see that this ministry is held in high regard by differant backgrounds anywhere from Baptist to Penticostals. There just isnt any label for this movement its about reaching the lost rather then competeting over church doctrine and schisms that divide the body.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
