WELCOME TO MISSIONS (VI)

*WELCOME TO MISSIONS* (VI)
_Key Bible Text:_
*And of making all people see how God's secret plan is to be put into effect. God, who is the Creator of all things, kept his secret hidden through all the past ages, in order that at the present time, by means of the church, the angelic rulers and powers in the heavenly world might learn of his wisdom in all its different forms.*
(Ephesians 3:9-10(GNB))
_Bible Insight:_
But now for the sequel. They became so interested, so aroused, so awakened, that they came in ever-increasing numbers. Souls were saved and in a very short time every seat was taken. Before long thy had caught the vision and they began to give, to give as they had never given before, and in a few weeks, without having to say hardly anything about the local obligations, every debt was paid, every bill met, and from that day to this we have not known the meaning of the word “debt” in connection with our work. We discovered that when we put first things first, God works.
The trouble with the average church is that the cart is put before the horse and then the pastor is told to get up on the seat and drive, and of course he finds the going hard. If only we would reverse the order and accept God’s plan, we would get somewhere and the going would be easy. Seek first the extension of God’s kingdom world-wide, and all things will be added. God’s programme never fails.
CHURCH
The third word I want to emphasize is the word “Church.” “The supreme task of the church is the evangelization of the world.” When I think of the church I think of the whole church, and not merely of a department or an organization in the church. For instance, we do not have any Women’s Missionary Society in The Peoples Church. We never have had such an organization and we never will. Not because I am against such a society. I thank God for every Women’s Missionary Society. Sometimes the only missionary light that shines is the light that shines from a Women’s Missionary Society. But I can show you in two minutes why it would be impossible for us to have such an organization.
