Our world is in terrible turmoil. At this writing, newspaper headlines are focused on the killing of twelve people, including two policemen, by radical Isla- mists in France. At noon, January 7, 2015, three men armed with automatic weapons stormed the office of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in retaliation for the publication of cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad.
Today’s newspapers also say that jurors are being selected for the trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the radical Islamist accused of killing three people and injuring more than 260 others by exploding a bomb near the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Never before in human history has the Prince of Peace been more desperately needed. Yet, never before have so many Christians been able to impact so many lives in so many places at the same time. The earth is covered by spiritual darkness, and Christ alone can lead the world out of the night of evil into his marvelous light.
God is using WEI to penetrate the darkness in every nation. In a single day, one WEI Internet teacher can introduce Christ to an atheist in Russia, a Communist in China, a Hindu in India, a Buddhist in Cambodia, a Muslim in Iraq, a spiritist in Haiti, and a Satanist in Cameroon. We must not ignore the door that God has opened before us. He has ordered us to go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation. Let us march to the drumbeat of the Master.
God loves everyone. He is not willing that ANY should perish. He wants everyone to come to repentance. And he is depending on you and me to spread the good news about Jesus to every human being on earth. He has made no other provision. If you would like to share your faith with people who don’t know Christ, please fill out the coupon on page 7 and check one or more of the teaching slots. We will help you get started.
To those who are already teaching, and to those who are helping to support this worldwide ministry with your prayers and financial resources, we say, “Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. God bless you. We love you.”
