Editorial – Update 139

June 6, 2013
Dick&Maudine
Adys

“God’s word is alive and working and is sharper than a double-edged sword. It cuts all the way into us, where the soul and the spirit are joined, to the center of our joints and bones. And it judges the thoughts and feelings in our hearts” (Hebrews 4:12, New Century Version).

When the word of God is taught, the power of God is unleashed. When God speaks, His words impact people’s lives. They make things happen. They do what God sends them to do (Isaiah 55:11).

The primary purpose of WEI is to spread the word of God to every man, woman, and child on earth. God doesn’t want anyone to be lost. He wants everyone to come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). The gospel of Christ is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16), and God is using WEI to spread the good news about Christ to every nation.

Listen to what students are saying about WEI and the way WEI has changed their thinking:
A Buddhist writes, “I have learned that God created everything. I thought everything has evolved spontaneously.”

A 47-year-old student writes, “Initially, the Bible was boring and tiresome, and I couldn’t make the head or tail out of it! Over a period of time, thanks to World English Institute, I have started cherishing the Bible. Now, I want to be very close to God and follow his words sincerely.”

A Muslim student in Iraq told his teacher that studying the Bible through WEI caused him to leave Islam for Christ.

Another WEI student writes, “I feel that the voice I hear in the Bible is coming from heaven, and I like it.”

These quotations are typical. In order to keep this ministry going, we need your prayers and your ongoing support. As Tom Langley has said, “WEI has reached every country of the world, but not every soul. There is much yet to be done.”

Is God calling you to get involved in world evangelism? If so, please consider becoming an Internet teacher, or partnering with us financially. Send your monthly donations to WEI, 1525 NW Division St., Gresham, OR 97030.

Maudine and I are grateful for your love, your support, and your fellowship. We love you with the love of God. —Dick & Maudine

Joanna concludes, “This experience has helped me to understand the Parable of the Sower so much better.  Many seeds were planted, but it took time for the plant to grow.”
