A Message From Dr. Steve Zeinner General Director |
|
Matthew 24:14, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
Mark 13:10, "And the gospel must first be published among all nations."
Luke 24:47, "And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem."
Would God give us a command that was humanly and divinely impossible to fulfill? Is His grace limited to only a few or to those that have access to the knowledge of the truth? Would He save those that as a nation have rejected Him and His Word? Are the heathen really lost and destined to Hell? When missionaries reach their field of service they are faced with insurmountable circumstances that, left to the flesh, can overwhelm them to the point of discouragement, utter confusion and a profound weakness. It is only by the grace of God that they can count on their calling, the protection and guidance of God to lead them into what seems to be an abyss of loneliness, sense of inability or to see a real change in the hearts of the people that really never asked them to come to their country. Nevertheless, faced with all of these obstacles, God's light and power shines through. Before long souls are brought to the light where they are wonderfully saved and a life changing process takes place. Since 1971 Connie and I as missionaries have been trying to point the lost to the light. As Church planters in Mexico for over 26 years and now for nearly 10 years working in Bearing Precious Seed, we have traveled around this world. We clearly see more than ever the need and the solutions in getting His precious Word into the hands of those that are helpless and hopeless. We have firsthand experience of seeing those that were prisoners to religion, nationalism, and a life of self sufficiency come to a place where they called out to God for mercy and salvation. We know that God's Word is true when He says in Jeremiah 23:29, "Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?" Isaiah 55:11 says, "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." So What is This About?
Bearing Precious Seed Global is a Biblical local church ministry that believes that we can reach all of the people of the earth. With over half of the world's languages still waiting for God's Word to be translated into their vernacular, we must aggressively press forward in our duty to reach these people for Christ. Since the beginning of what we know as "Bearing Precious Seed", taken from Psalms 126:6 and its founder Dr. Don Frazer, God has raised up many good and productive ministries. Now we find ourselves faced with the next level process of Bearing Precious Seed, which is doing all that we can to assure that those in hard to reach places get His Word. Over the past few years, I have been asked the question, "Brother Zeinner would you help us get Scripture and other needed material printed here in our country or a neighboring country? Shipping from the US is just impossible, please help us." Places like Tajikistan where Brother Mark Rose is working and is pleading for help to get needed material into the hands of the Tajikistanis. As I travel in person or speak by phone or communicate by email around this globe I am finding that doors are opened. In 1 Corinthians 16:9 it says, "For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries." To walk through these opened doors requires great labor and patience to win the race. Open doors allow anyone to pass through. Our adversaries recognize and pursue these doors of opportunity with relentless efforts to win these feeble lost souls over to their false religions with no salvation plan. No, God would not give us a command that is impossible to fulfill. He will and has given us the tools and open doors to reach into the entire world. His grace is for all and must be preached to all nations and people groups. Nations and false religions as a whole reject the truth, but we have seen those that have heard the gospel receive it with gladness through faith and then turn to God and leave the traditions of man. If the heathen are not lost because they have not heard the truth, then would it not make sense that no one should hear the truth, because each time they hear we condemn them to Hell? Romans 1:20, "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:" Please pray as we and others reach into this wicked world to try to snatch sinners one by one from the grasp of Satan.
