“To seek and save the lost” was the very purpose for Jesus coming, and must be the very heartbeat of the Christian walk today. Based on this direction, Paul further expounds by instructing Timothy to take the things that he had heard and entrust them to the faithful who would teach others. From these two passages, the Bear Valley Bible Institute of Denver serves in training men to preach the Gospel.
Working with others in the Extension program elevates this work even further. Consider the power of hundreds of men who, during and after their training, take the gospel of Jesus in various locations around the world. The multiplied efforts of these men exemplifies the incredible way God uses the power of the message preached to save those who believe. We are honored and privileged to work with them for the cause of the kingdom.
We are thankful for the opportunity to work in each location and to read weekly about the growth and development of the Lord’s church. This week is no exception, as the schools reporting continue to share news about the increase God is giving to the planting and watering of the Gospel.
Now on to the other reports...
