and training of these pastors, teachers and evangelists to win Africa for Christ. Other colleges can learn from their balanced Biblical, Practical, Missionary vision and effective strategy for mobilising pastors, evangelists and missionaries to win and disciple Africa for Christ. To contact Back to the Bible Mission, email: shyriesmulder@ gmail.com, or visit their website: www.bbmission.org. The Great Commission is Our Supreme Ambition As always, the Mulders laid on a full programme. Each day was packed with lectures and other ministry. I gave lectures and presentations on: Missions in the Old Testament, Missionary Strategy in Acts, The Gospel in Acts, The Amateurisation of Missions, What Does It Take to Be a Missionary?, Missions – Nine Ways of Going, The Greatness of the Great Commission, What is the Difference Between Christianity and All Other Religions?, Motives for Missions, Wrong Motives and False Calls, Biblical Motives, What is Missions?, What is A Missionary?, William Carey – The Father of Modern Missions, Evangelising Hindus, Understanding Islam, Effective Evangelism of Muslims, Comparing the Bible and the Quran, Communicating the Gospel Through Abraham, Making Disciples of All Nations and The Greatest Century of Missions. These resulted in many hours of discussions, answering the questions of the eager students. Films On one of the evenings, I was able to listen to and evaluate Homiletics practical preaching by several of the students. On other evenings, we also screened a number of useful films which engendered much discussion, including: Beyond the Next Mountain on church planting and Bible translation in North West India. This film presents a dramatic true story of the life of Rochunga Pudaite, whose father was converted by a missionary from Wales in 1908. Rochunga dedicated his life to translating the Bible into the Hmar language. We also screened the New Tribes Mission film, EE-Taow – The Next Chapter, on chronological Evangelism and Church planting amongst remote Mouk people in Papua New Guinea and Living Waters’ Evolution vs. God film for practical one-on-one evangelistic conversations with atheists 10
and evolutionists on university campuses. After each of these films there was much productive discussion and plainly students were being encouraged, inspired and equipped for the field. Greatest Century of Missions I was able to provide each student with their own copy of The Greatest Century of Missions book as examples of excellence for Missions. Each student also received a copy of Biblical Principles for Africa. The previous week Hunter had provided every student of the college with a complimentary copy of our new Biblical Preaching Handbook. Body, Mind and Spirit There were also other ministry opportunities, speaking with the Student Council, the Women’s Group, the Staff and Faculty, the Third Year Students and a special Sports Parade, P.T. session with practical self-defence skills. After Exams on Friday, I was busy marking through the night, till early the next morning. There was also an opportunity to take part in an outreach in Malelane and ministering at a local congregation there. Enroute to the airport the next morning, we delivered students to evangelise at two of the hospitals in Barberton and distributed literature there. All told, including lectures, services, presentations and devotions, I gave over 35 presentations in that week. Africa Overland Missions Many of the students who graduate organise outreaches, pastor’s fraternals, seminars, conferences and services in their countries and invite our Mission teams to minister in their areas. Our missionaries are then able to deliver much needed Bibles, World Missionary Press Gospel booklets, doctrinal and devotional books, Sunday school materials, evangelistic tracts and film evangelism materials to empower their ministries across Africa. “After these things I looked and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples and tongues, standing before the Throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands.” Revelation 7:9 An Urgent Call for Prayer Please continue to pray for our Africa Reformation Overland Mission team: Abrie, Daniel, Alieske, Tobie and Talita, who have already completed ministry in Tanzania, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe. They have battled with illness, vehicle problems and chronic shortage of funds. The Mission is struggling to meet commitments and finance much needed printing and other strategic needs. “Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the Word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith.” 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2 May God continue to be your joy and strength.
