Moreover I invite you to come forward and catch the vision to reach one of the most unreached lands where millions of people who have never heard the Gospel live. Jesus said, “When the Holy Spirit has come upon you, you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the world” (Acts 1: 8). That is why God saved our lives and gives the joy and peace from above. Once we have received that, we cannot keep quiet, or keep it for ourselves. We have business to do. There are people in this world without the joy and peace that we have. We cannot reach all of them, but we can at least reach one in our lifetime through prayer, effort and investment in the kingdom of God.
I always remember the story of the four lepers in 2 Kings 7:9, which reads: “and they said to one another, ‘We are not doing right. This is the day of good news and we are keeping it for ourselves. If we wait until daylight, punishment will overtake us. Let us go at once and report this to the royal place.’” These lepers had come out of a camp searching for food during a famine, awaiting death. They heard there was food in another country, the camp of the Arameans. The lepers went there and found food, clothing, silver and gold--everything they needed. This is also true in our experience. Once we were without Jesus-- without peace and joy. But by the grace of God, we can come to the cross of Calvary and meet Jesus. Because of that, now we have everything. We have the joy of salvation, peace, and eternal life in Jesus.
Once we have Jesus in us we cannot keep quiet. There are people out there waiting to hear the name of Jesus for the first time in their life. If you keep quiet they cannot hear this good news. Paul asked, “How can they believe in whom they have not heard?” (Romans 10: 13, 14). Yes, they are waiting for you. I believe in the importance of evangelism because it is a cry from another part of the world. When Paul received the call to Macedonia, he saw a vision of a man from Macedonia come and ask him: “COME AND HELP US.” (Give us this good news, give us the peace you have; give us the joy you have; tell us about Jesus.) If you can listen to the voice of God when you go through this website, you can hear the cry from the nation saying, ‘Come and help us! We need Jesus!”
Paul said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ because it is the power of God unto salvation for those who believe.” God cannot save a sinner until and unless we share Jesus with them. If a sinner wants to come to Christ, we have to go to the sinner. So I take this opportunity to invite you to come, let us go to the unreached nations and tell them about the power of the blood of Jesus Christ which is shed on the cross of Calvary.
Your Brother in Christ Jesus,
N.A. Philip
