The Forbidden Bible

Did you know that the first English translations of the Bible were banned?

Did you know that the first printed copies of the New Testament in English had to be printed in Germany and smuggled into England in bales of cotton?

Did you know that the Bible translator responsible for this was burned at the stake for the crime of translating the Scriptures into English?

Bishop Stephen Bradley observed: “We are in danger of forgetting truths for which previous generations gave their lives.”

Egyptians are Now a Minority in Their Own Country
To understand what is at stake in the Islamic Invasion Trojan Horse, one needs to consider the fate of Egypt, Byzantine and Sudan. For many centuries Egypt was the greatest economic and military superpower in the world. However, in the 7th Century, Egypt was conquered and colonised by Muslim Arabs. Today, the Egyptian Copts make up barely 12% of the total population and Christianity is a minority religion, in what for a thousand years had enjoyed a Christian majority. The Arabs have oppressed the Christian Copts for centuries.

Through the years, I have often had people talking about what they were going to do, could have done, should have done, but did not do! Early on I determined that I would not want to arrive at the end of my life regretting missed opportunities and wasted potential.

Making Disciples of all Nations

If we want the 21st century to be the greatest century of Missions and Revival then we will need to learn from the Christian pioneers whom God used to make the 19th century (1801-1900) the greatest century of Christian advance, so far.

How Christianity became the first truly international religion, in just one century, is an amazing story. What inspired these incredibly effective missionary pioneers, and the successful strategies they used, needs to be prayerfully examined if we are to be more effective in world Evangelism.

You Are What You Read

Stepping Stones to Success
Some years ago, George and Alec Gallup undertook an exhaustive investigation as to what makes some people more successful than others. Using the polling techniques that have made them famous, the brothers researched and wrote a book on Success. One of their conclusions: Successful people read.

Foundations for Constructive Conversation
George Gallup found that reading was essential because it "makes a person ready to converse… these people have a broad knowledge… and more information with which to make evaluations and decisions."

Gym for the Mind
Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. Books are minds alive on the shelves. By taking up one of these books, and opening it, we can hear the voices of people far away in time and space. By reading we can hear great people of long ago speaking to us, mind to mind, heart to heart.

Inspiration from Examples of Excellence
If it was announced that Martin Luther, John Calvin, Charles Spurgeon or David Livingstone was speaking at a particular church, Christians from all over the world would show up. But we need to remember that when we open up a book by one of those authors, we can hear them speak and learn from them in a greater way than you could if you just heard them at a single meeting.

Character Shaping
A man is known by the company he keeps. It is also true that a person's character is to a large extent developed by the books he reads. A man is known by the company his mind keeps. A book is good company.

Learning from the Past
"The reading of all good books is like conversation with the finest men of past centuries.Descartes.

Soul Food
"In books lies the soul of the whole past time. Thomas Carlyle.

How FRANCIS GRIM MENTORED me in MISSIONS

28/4/2016

This last weekend we had the privilege of hosting Healthcare Christian Fellowship at Livingstone House for a Consultation with Healthcare Alliance members. Some participants came from America and Holland. The Director General of the Ministry of Health also visited and spoke to the participants. On Friday night I was asked to give a presentation on The Challenges Confronting Us. HCF was the first Mission I served under and it deeply impacted my life and future ministry.

"And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen..” Matthew 28: 18-20
