2023 Missions Conference with Justin Hayes - Sunday Morning.

A Spanish martyr dying in Inquisition days in Spain, has one thing on his mind: will his wife take back her renunciation of her faith of Jesus and be in Heaven with him?

Planning, Prayer and Providence

From Spain to Germany to America, from spiritual condemnation to life, Pablo shares how God's mercy brought him to saving grace and blessings. Lisa shares the challenges she faced being raised in a missionary/pastoral family in the same church and the decisions she had to make for herself.

Missionary Mark Davis, presenting the work in Girona, Spain, and God's commandment to love our enemies, to be more like Him.

The structure of Paul's letter depicts the gospel nature of his ministry. Righteousness Robbed (1:18-3:20) Righteousness Restored (3:21-5:21) Righteousness Reign (6-8) Righteousness Rejected (9-11) Righteousness Realized (12-16)

Did Paul plan to retire? Paul explains the reason he had not yet visited Rome and that his sights are beyond Rome. Paul talks like he's done all he can do, so why go to Spain?

This fortieth message from Romans continues Paul's concluding remarks involving his future. His PLANS included three aspects: (1) going to Rome from which he had often been impeded, though he inclined to go many times; (2) going to Jerusalem intent on serving the saints with a gift from indebted believers in Greece; and (3) going to Spain after an interval of time, to increase their blessings from Christ. The PRAYERS of both Paul and the Roman believers formed a teamwork that was critical for his rescue from disbelievers, and for a recognized pleasure by the saints in Jerusalem. Ultimately his target was to reach those believers in Rome and be refreshed by them.

Continuing our introduction to Romans, today Pastor Alex examines Paul's credentials and qualifications as an apostle of Christ.

Romans 15:20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation: 21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand. 22 For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you. 23 But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you; 24 Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company. 25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints. 26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. 27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things. 28 When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain. 29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

Paul has a deep concern for the believers in Rome, it stems from him not being ashamed of the Gospel because of the recognition of it's one of a kind power!

Paul's plan to go to Jerusalem, Rome, and then Spain. The plans of men vs God's better plan. Also, why the Gentiles owed the Jews.

This conversation with missionary Andy Bonikowsky is of particular encouragement and instruction to those considering whether God has called them to missionary service. Topics of discussion include the blessing of a godly wife who saw missions as her calling too; a method of raising support through the establishment of personal relationships; and a determination to wait patiently for God to bring the harvest--which He faithfully does as the missionary perseveres in the work of his calling.
