Glory and honor to our God because of His infinite love and mercy toward all humankind. It is good to know that God wants all to be saved; God wants all come to repentance. This is why we believe it is high priority to obey the Great Commission given to the church.
We thank God for you, for your desire in your hearts that His Word be preached all over the world in order to make known to the lost the precious message of salvation in Jesus Christ. Fellows, thank you very much for working with us—praying, giving, and training workers.
We want to express three things:
First, from the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your regular gifts to this ministry. As Paul said, your offerings are “an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.” We are truly thankful for your generosity. It is a high privilege working shoulder-to-shoulder with you in obedience to the Great Commission. Your gifts supply necessary expenses in training workers; every cent is used to equip in the best way those servants who will go to obey the Great Commission. You are laying up treasures in Heaven.
Secondly, we want to encourage you to participate with us in reaching the goals God has put before of us. Our first purpose is to glorify God serving Baptist churches in Biblical, spiritual, theological, and ministerial perfection of workers with passion for God and His worldwide mission. Our deep desire is to partner with pastors and churches seriously involved in obeying the Great Commission. To impact the world with the gospel, we need to work hard in training workers with burning hearts for the Lord and His Great Commission.
How can we get to this goal?
There are three things that you can do: (1) Please pray for more laborers for the harvest. (2) Give for the training of those who already are here. (3) Promote obedience to the Great Commission in the hearts of children, teens, youth, and adults in your church. We have to understand that our local churches are the fields from which God will rise more workers for His harvest. Sometimes we only pray for more workers, but we are not encouraging our brothers and sisters to be those workers. Please encourage others to serve God in full-time ministries!
Finally, we encourage you to keep growing in your Christian life. Keep growing in your love toward your Savior; keep growing in holiness; keep growing in your effortful service to God!
May God richly bless you and yours, and all that you do for His glory!
