Work

By admin, February 9, 2011

Our ministry has various aspects as we put our efforts in different areas of need. Our motto is to “equip the church and engage the culture.” We do this in the Eastern European and Bulgarian context and as the Lord leads us. Our ministry has both local and national dimensions.

Equipping the church is a work that requires hearing God, following His guidance through obeying the Holy Spirit and abiding in Christ’s teachings. One cannot equip the chruch if they are not equipped by God themselves.

As the church, the people of God, are equipped for a godly life, thus we can bring the message of Jesus Christ, and God’s ways to a wayward and hopoless people — the world, or “the culture.” Engaging the culture means bringing the Gospel of hope to those who are seeking; it may also mean bringing the waring of divine judgment to those who are obstiantely perverting justice and God’s ways. This prophet-evangelist dynamic is critical as it is a part of the message of hope delivered by the same church, which has received and appropriated the message in itself. We cannot give more hope that what we already have. We can definitely promise more hope than what we have but this is not the message of Christ and the truth; it is humanism. That is why in our euqipping others we rely on going back to God for more wisdom, faith, friendship and direction. He gives to those who ask Him and do not doubt (James 1:5-8).

Hence, our work may seem quite secular at some points (religous freedom and justice issues) and rather spiritual at other times (preaching the gosple, Bible study, spiritual discipleship). But in its essence in all we do we seek to express the Lord’s work on the cross, His current engagement in the lives of people and the expection of His glorious return and righteous judgment.
