WEI Internet Teaching
“Senior Saints” often wonder, “After retirement, what next?” At a recent Abundant Living retreat, Howard Norton offered this answer.
At any age, anything that brings glory to God is Kingdom work. Ephesians 2:8-10: “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from ourselves, it is the gift of God — not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” WEI teachers know that one good work is teaching others the good news of Jesus. In Philippians 2:14-16a, the Spirit says, “Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life . . .”
Don’t let Satan discourage you when few seem to listen. Serve those who will listen as if serving Jesus himself! Like these below, some will listen:
“Teacher, thank you for showing me the light. WEI is really powerful because it reveals things most churches don’t know. May God Bless you and make all your children follow in your footsteps. I will always pray for you. Please don’t forget me. I would not hesitate to ask you a question.”
Rico, a medical student in Madagascar, wants to learn so he can teach poor children who work to support their families and cannot go to school. He understands English is very important in world communication and has wanted to take lessons for a long time but study centers are very expensive.
Eliakim was baptized in Toliara, Madagascar by another student in 2013. He came up out of the water teaching and has since baptized four others, including a man and his wife. They meet by the seaside. The only sermons he has heard are those he preached himself. Now he’s in school in Benin where George Akpabli is the director. In three years, we should have a preacher in the south of Madagascar!
