Lessons are prepared, the tarpaulin has been installed (to allow for more seating), notices have been hung, and grass has been cut. The Tulwei church is ready for her second gospel meeting.
I have prepared a series of lessons on baptism. Why baptism? Because it is the point at which a sinner is brought into Christ (Rom 6:3), forgiven (Acts 2:38), washed (Acts 22:16), and saved (1 Peter 3:21). Unfortunately, most (if not all) churches here teach something unbiblical with regard to baptism and its role in salvation. Sad indeed, especially because God's revelation is so very clear on this point.
What an awesome God we serve! He gave His Son to pay the price we owed but could not pay. Please be praying with us that some here would take advantage of that free gift by being immersed into Christ for the forgiveness of sins, initiating a relationship with the Father through His Son's body, the church.
In the national language of Vanuatu, Bislama, you will often be asked “afta?” - which means “and then what?” We originally set up this blog to chronicle our time in Tulwei Village (NW Malekula Island), and those archives are still available. Now that we're back in the capital city of Port Vila, we will continue to keep you updated on "...and then what?". We'd love to hear from you as you have comments, and invite you to check back in often. Thanks for your prayers and support! God bless...
