For God’s glory and by His grace, we desire to motivate more missionaries to go to the field and do the work of church-planting and men-training, specifically in the Muslim World.
Our vision is four-fold:
1. Motivate people to surrender to missions. There are over 7 billion people currently on the earth and that number is increasing. Yet there are so many that have never once heard the gospel or the name of Christ! But God has commanded us in Matthew 28:19-20: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. This is not just a suggestion; it is a command. We, as Christians, must obey this command before it is eternally too late! We desire to help motivate people, no matter what stage of life they are in, to consider giving their lives to getting the gospel all around the world!
2. Make people aware of the need for God to be glorified in the Muslim World. There are close to 2 billion Muslims living in the world today, yet there are so few people willing to go to the Muslim World. But Jesus said in Romans 10:13: For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Whosoever means anyone! That would include Muslims! Meaning that God desires for the Muslim World and Muslims to come to Him and be saved. He loves Muslims and is not willing that any of them should perish! God does not want us to destroy Muslims. He wants us to reach them with the gospel.
3. Motivate people to become disciple making, church planting missionaries in the Muslim World. With close to 2 billion Muslims in the world, you would think there would be a large force of missionaries reaching the Muslim World, but sadly there are so few! The Muslim World has been the most neglected missions field for centuries! So few have been willing to take the gospel to the Muslim World and yet Christ died for their sins, just as much as He died for our sins! We need people willing to give their lives to go take the gospel to the Muslim World, to go into these “closed” countries and not be afraid to name the name of Christ! God and Muslims are waiting on the other end of our obedience! Time is short, the laborers are few, but if we raise an army of laborers we can and will see, through God and God alone, the Muslim World reached with the gospel in this generation!
4. Mentor and equip national believers to carry out the Great Commission for God’s glory. As we reach into the Muslim World, there is only one way to truly reach it with the gospel. That is by doing what is found in II Timothy 2:2: And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. We must preach the gospel to Muslims and then as they come to Christ, take and train them to take the gospel as well! We must train them to be pastors and missionaries! Our desire is not only to raise up laborers to go to the Muslim World, but as they go, they will then train and raise up national believers to continue on the work and to reach more of the Muslim World than we ever could!
The need is great and the time is short! Will you at the least pray for the Muslim World to be reached with the gospel? Why not consider giving your life and doing the impossible which is reaching the Muslim World with the gospel!
