The major work of a missionary is that of training disciples who in turn will be able to teach and train others, (2 Tim. 2:2). However, making disciples is one of the greatest challenges facing Christians in this Laodicean age. With increased technology and developments all over the world, including Africa, we see a shift in people's ambition and drive in life. Because of the easy access of the internet, TV and movies, more and more people are being drawn after the lusts of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. It is becoming more and more difficult to find true disciples who will remain committed to the cause of Christ. The thorny ground of the cares and lusts of the world are choking out the Word of God.
But we thank God for His powerful Word and wonderful Grace that calls men and women to forsake all for the love of Christ. Though they be few and far between, little is much when God is in it. We are happy to be training some dedicated men in our Bible Institute for the service of our great King! Please pray for them to grow in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.
