The venue is the White House. The time is 3am and to the hurriedly assembled select team of top military and government leaders, the message from the President of the United States could not have been any more shocking and frightful. Genesis, the most secretive and most daring machine on which trillions of dollars had been spent has disappeared; either stolen by a competitor nation or taken back in time by rogue American soldiers. With either scenario capable of leading to disaster for the US and possibly other nations of the world the US, Russia and China separately embark on urgent measures to fast track the completion of machines that would go on a search and destroy mission. But where has Genesis gone to and what is the motive of the mainly military men that furtively took off with it? The answers to these questions surface in the wake of a roller coaster ride through murder, lust, treachery and the extent to which the execution of good intentions can be subverted by the misuse and corrupting influence of absolute power. Mission 3-R is a gripping must read from the acclaimed author of If Only and Black Spell.
The Purpose of the Sunday School/Bible Study. DON'T miss this. Most pastors simply do not know the purpose of the Sunday school. We have asked this question: "What is the purpose of Sunday school" and we almost always get this answer: "teach the Word of God". The answer to that answer cries from the pages of scripture: without knowledge we stumble, and often fail. The answer to the question "What is the purpose of Sunday school" is found in Matt 28: 19 Go ye therefore, and # 1 teach all nations, #2 baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 # 3 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.The purpose of the Sunday school is to carry out the great commission It is the reaching/teaching arm of the church, not the teaching/reaching arm of the church. Don't throw rocks at me, but I can prove this to anyone. A Sunday school organized for growth is many times more effective than any "soul winning only" program. Listen to DL Moody explaining: TWO-FOLD PURPOSE: 1- To carry out the great commission. It is the soul winning/outreach arm of the church. II- The Sunday School also has the purpose of helping to meet the spiritual needs of the people. If this is indeed the reason for our classes then we must ask ourselves the question, "Is my class meeting needs?" Let's look at some needs: 1. Is my class a soul-winning station? Am I providing soul-winning opportunities by organizing my class visitation program? 2. Does my class provide the proper fellowship that develops evangelistic and spiritual growth amongst the members? 3. Are there opportunities provided, through the class organization, that give class members a place to serve the Lord? 4. Am I providing the kind of classroom atmosphere that encourages soul winning and spiritual growth? 5. Are my lessons well prepared? Remember-building an evangelistic class that meets the spiritual needs of the people is the purpose of Sunday School
