Pray that the Lord will bless Abu's ministry and also pray that the Holy Spirit will stir up our hearts to want to reach those who do not know the Lord Jesus Christ. The harvest truly is plentiful but the laborers are few.Fr_Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15869701021679422382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18902745.post-12135087159916098972008-07-08T12:06:00.000-04:002008-07-08T12:06:00.000-04:00Hi Albion,The beautiful thing about the large swat...Hi Albion,<BR/><BR/>The beautiful thing about the large swaths of the earth where many of the unreached people groups live is that there is no territorial bickering because guess what, there aren't churches there yet. Who is going to become upset if you (discretely and quite possibly secretly) consecrate a missionary bishop for the missionary diocese of Comorros or Bhutan? <BR/><BR/>I think this could really bring the continuing churches together. If each of the main four would select adn train two units (families or individuals) and come up with a decent platform, then you could hope for, after five to eight years, a congregation in one of these places.<BR/><BR/>That's hard work. But it would belong to all the continuing Anglicans and is there any reason that the first deacon or priest there could not belong to all of those continuing churches? Just an idea...Abu Daoudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18399746942963002389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18902745.post-7657476138605966032008-07-08T11:28:00.000-04:002008-07-08T11:28:00.000-04:00I should have followed up my final question with a...I should have followed up my final question with a more practical one, and perhaps Abu Daoud will be kind enough to answer it here.<BR/><BR/>How does he think the continuing churches, as jurisdictions, dioceses or even parishes, can help this work in a tangible way?Albion Landhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14423168351697120421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18902745.post-78074501836493193792008-07-08T11:08:00.000-04:002008-07-08T11:08:00.000-04:00"If your church is focused on receiving and retain..."If your church is focused on receiving and retaining God's favor then it will be like the Dead Sea, which only receives water and has no life.

We've been pretty good at defense, but it's a truism of sports that a team which has only a defensive strategy ultimately loses. We've been commissioned to challenge the Evil One on his own turf. It's high time we do so. Your work is probably the most difficult and most dangerous outreach Christians can make in these days. May His hand be upon you, and may His word be heard among a deluded people.<BR/><BR/>edpoetreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11613032927883843078noreply@blogger.com
