THE NEW GLOBAL CHURCH - SECTION 5


WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE

THE NEW GLOBAL GOSPEL CULTURE

THE NEW MOVE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT



WHAT WE KNOW FOR SURE

1. THESE THINGS ARE CERTAIN

a. "And the gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." [Jesus - Matthew 24:14]

b. The word "nations" used in (a) above is from the Greek root "ethnos" and means "a race of the same habit; a tribe, a nation or people." It can be as large as a nation and as small as a family clan.

c. For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea." [Habakkuk 2:14]

d. Note: the above verse does NOT say,"The earth will be filled with the knowledge of Buddhism, Islam, or Hinduism."

2. THESE THINGS WILL HAPPEN

a. Don't worry about what you see ... we WIN ... we walk by faith, and not by sight.

b. Preach the cross, heal the sick, believe God for MIRACLES ... real miracles!

c. "And they went forth and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following." [Mark 16:20]

d. Networks of apostolic ministry will be weaved together by the Spirit. There will be NO jealousy as the JOY of the fruit of souls, and the manifestation of deliverance, will be preeminent.

e. Preach, teach, heal the sick, cast out demons, and minister to the social needs of people.

f. Regularly, in church and Bible studies recite together the Ten Commandments ... and the Golden Rule. We have been so involved with the "Deeper Life" that we have forgotten the basics of society which God requires.

g. Pray in tongues ... in the Spirit ... much! [Jude verse 20]

THE NEW GLOBAL GOSPEL CULTURE

1. SIGNPOSTS OF THIS NEW CULTURE

a. Spanish is the language most spoken by Christians in the world.

b. In 1800, 86% of all Christians were White. By 2000, it was 39%.

c. The world's largest congregation is pentecostal with 500,000 members and is in South Korea. (Note: If it had NOT been for the Korean War, that church would not be there!)

d. The largest church building is in Ivory Coast (Cote d'Ivoire), West Africa.

2. EVOLUTION OF THE NEW GOSPEL CULTURE

a. The top new schools of theology in the next few years will be in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

b. The Chinese Christians (from the real church, the underground church) are already preparing to take the Gospel back to Jerusalem.

c. Many of these Chinese leaders have already suffered in prison in China for the Gospel.

3. SUGGESTIONS FOR THE NEW GOSPEL CULTURE

a. Christian "think tanks" and brainstorming sessions should gather in prayer and fasting to seek the Spirit's leading for NEW and SPECIFIC ideas of evangelism and discipleship. Young people should be involved ... think OUTSIDE the box ... and the church!

b. BONUS promised: Rest one day a week; fast regularly! [Isaiah 58]

THE NEW MOVE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

1. THE THIRD WORLD WILL BE THE NEW POWER BASE

a. Jesus was a non-White baby born into a family who later fled to Egypt as refugees.

b. All of Jesus' disciples were non-White and He entrusted them with the Great Commission.

2. THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CHURCH IN THIS NEW MOVE - WHAT IS NEEDED

a. New mission bases need to arise with an accurate perspective of WHAT God is doing ... and WHAT He wants!

b. Always be willing to operate in unity ... even if others don't want to.

c. Churches need to have central bases in:

Ghettos and places of poverty,

Government and political arenas, and

Educational centers.

3. SUGGESTIONS FOR MULTIPLICATION OF THE NEW MOVE

a. Christian workers should GO and COME regularly from all seven (7) continents, as the Holy Spirit leads.

b. Use any type of media (music, hip hop, rap, skateboarding, BMX, surfing, sports, literary, the arts) to preach the death of Messiah Jesus on the cross stake and His resurrection to the cultures.

EXAMPLE

QUESTION: In Malawi, a poor country, where the young people and university students acknowledge the only two things they have are music and football (soccer), what do you think the best way to reach them would be?

ANSWER: Outdoor meetings with contemporary music groups and soccer teams (the visiting group of believers playing the local teams). Have testimonies from people whose lives have been changed by the LORD interspersed at times throughout the day (or weekend) and then a huge outdoor evangelistic service at the conclusion.

Have lots of fun interaction between the believers and the students, visiting their homes, rooms and schools.

c. Encourage Christian trade and entrepreneurship.
