All believers long to hear Jesus tell them “Well done,” yet few understand biblically who Jesus will say this to! This book gives you the certainty of hearing those most coveted words! As Christians, your entrance into heaven was purchased without your effort—simply attained by your faith in Jesus. However the experience of your eternal life in heaven is currently being determined by your life here on earth. So how can you be sure your efforts, sacrifice and sincerity are enough for Jesus to tell you "well done"?

Global mission has moved into a new era when it is no longer just "from the West to the rest" but rather "from everywhere to everywhere." But too often mission workers have not partnered well with local communities, hurting Christian witness and ministry efforts. And as the global church sends more and more missionaries, how can we learn from the past, develop new ways of partnering, and avoid repeating these same mistakes? The book of Acts provides a role model.

Christians are boring and going to church is dull. God (if He exists) is irrelevant to me and the plans I have for my life. He surely does not call people to serve Him on the mission field today! Or so I thought … this is my story, a journey of surprising discoveries. It is a story of travel and love, crocodiles and soldiers, life and death, ships and illness, blessing and provision, ugly angels and the KGB, Dracula’s castle and hoopoes, holy kisses and miracles, answered prayers and a girl and a voice and a call. For the last two decades Matthew Skirton has served as a missionary with ...

This is a short paper I wrote on Christian Nationalism. The three main ideas are the Great Commission, the Law, and Democracy. The Great Commission has parallels in God's command to Adam to fill the earth and subdue it, and also God's command to Joshua to conquer Canaan. The Great Commission carries elements from the other commissions. The next section discusses the importance of God's law as the rule or the model to build society's laws, and that only believers should govern men. The last section discusses the wickedness of democracy as an extension of Satan's temptation to Adam and Eve to...

Today, over three billion people, a third of humanity, have yet to hear the good news of Jesus. They have no opportunity to believe in him as their Savior and find peace with God through him. Of all the injustices in the world—and there are many that are quite distressing—this is the worst, because of the eternal consequences. A third of anything is significant—especially this third.

In July of 1975, shortly after coming to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, Ron Tyler prayed, “Lord, I will be anything you want me to be! I will go anywhere You want me to go! I will do anything you want me to do!”

Ron and his wife, Jean, were watching the news showing the emaciated body of a dead teenage girl carried from a field in Thailand. Horrified by the devastation ensnaring a mass populace of Cambodian refugees during the “Killing Fields” of 1979, Ron and Jean were heart-stricken.
