ADDRESS BY
THE NATIONAL COORDINATOR
It is high time
we intensify evangelism at the local parishes using various means of
evangelization such as outreach programs during special holidays,
crusades and community contribution to demonstrate Christ love.
(Operation Andrew - save a soul a week, One-Verse Evangelism, etc.).
Wouldn't you like to shine as stars forever and ever? Daniel 12:3
There is no alternative to maintaining the esteemed standard of
'old-time religion'. We must be totally obedient to follow Christ
implicitly without reservations. This starts from Pastors as relates to
integrity in ministry, manners of conduct, maturity, marriage, money,
morality, being well informed. These attributes have to be assimilated
first by the leaders then imparted on the followers. Are you a model of
integrity? Proverbs. 22:28, Isaiah. 35:8
We face the challenge of integrating our African inclination into the
acceptable European values with a view of not limiting fellowship to
Africans. The African Christian attributes we hold strongly are
holiness, prayerfulness, strong faith, deepness of worship and hand of
fellowship, while European virtues include effective time management,
community service and strategic planning. " … with all thy getting get
understanding" Proverbs. 4:7
Are you getting the principal thing?
Most of us have vivid memories of the miracles that abound during
Holy-Ghost services and annual national Holy-Ghost congress back in
Lagos. The Lord can surely bring the same level of revival to The
Netherlands; how prepared are we for this?
The great commission of our Lord Jesus Christ is that we should go into
the world and propagate the Gospel. Today, in furtherance of this
mandate, The Redeemed Christian Church of God worldwide established over
1,500 parishes in 2001. We believe in positioning our worship centers
close to the people hence in The Netherlands we are challenged to
establish parishes in every State, County, City and in fact within 30
minutes driving distance. Today, in Netherlands, we have about 10
parishes and our target before the next year's convention is to reach
20. What is your contribution towards this goal?
Pastor Dele Olowu
