Pampanga, Philippines
A 1200-square-meter lot is for sale in the province of Pampanga on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. Who will buy it? A small mission church less than two years old hopes to purchase it. This church, pastored by a graduate of Bob Jones Memorial Bible College in Manila, has a vision to make disciples and start other disciple-making churches. This is missions at its best: God using national believers to reach their own people.

Sometimes God works in people's lives from a young age. Such was the case with Anne Dreisbach, the daughter of medical missionaries John and Bettie Dreisbach. As a six-year-old child, Anne came to faith in Christ at a boarding school in Africa. Shortly afterward the Lord called her to missions. Out of gratefulness to the Lord, she determined to give her life to telling others about Jesus. Would...

God Bless You, Calarie and your family. Christ was resurrected in early 2023. I've been whistleblowing the Truth since then. This is the Church, the Body of Christ; that's my servant. 1 Thess. 2: 14 - 16. I am the Head of the DAN Tribe, carrying out all Four Revelations that publicly announced God and the Heavens. Yes, HeavenS. As a Jew, I am warning you to guard your heart with the Lord Jesus Christ. Can you distinguish between the False State of Israel and the God of Israel? God Bless Poland and America - the King of Jews
Thank you for this video it was amazing
This was very good! As a young pastor myself, I appreciated all of the practical wisdom shared here.
Ancestor veneration, seeking to earn merit, trying to ensure health, wealth, and prosperity are the main reasons.
Thank you Dr. Fant. Blessings, ‘Son of my right hand’ & your gifting to VBC.
Thank Pastor Senn for sharing your research & gifted teaching illuminations of Song Of Solomon. Clarification of an ignored, misused, maligned, abused or allegorized book of Holy writ. ThankYou Dr. Fant for this edification treat interview.
Really rich. Loved the comments about systematic theology and about the needs of people.
Thanks for watching! We're glad the episode was helpful.

I’m rediscovering Romans right now, and I am in awe. I’ve been a believer for 26 years, and I’m just really, deeply grasping the fact He chose me before the foundation of the earth. His love and protection (and holiness and glory) are astounding. I see all of this in Romans.
We're so glad the Romans overview episode has been helpful to you!
Excellent, thanks so much for this, men!
Very helpful. Thank you.
Praise the Lord Bud, John Martin in Charleston South Carolina, serving a lord here in your hometown and thinking about those days at IBC.
I’m thankful for this discussion because there is a growing number of women visual artists here in the US and other English speaking countries that believe in Buddhism, tarot card pulling, divination, astrology, human design, Devine feminism, reincarnation, and other unbiblical philosophies, religion, and lifestyles. They “Americanize “ or twist these eastern thoughts to suit them, even stating that listeners can use any title they choose, such as “The Universe”, or (generically) god, whatever you choose. Of course rarely if ever do they suggest the name Jesus. These ideals have accelerated since 2011. It's very disturbing. Although I only know these hundreds of women online through art classes, I am getting to know some teachers and participants personally because they run art communities that I attend. Trying to win one by one's testimony by first showing the light of Jesus has been my first step, mainly because most have had bad experiences with men in church, whether pastors or teachers or their own dad. Hence, they have rejected the message because of the messenger’s abuse. Will any of your tracts or pamphlets help me to be a better witness to these that subscribe to these unbiblical beliefs? I live close to GFA's headquarters. AND Thank you…your discussion has cleared up questions I had on Buddhism and the related religions. I think these women are seekers, looking anywhere but the Bible. 🙏
Thank you for the encouragement. Yes, I think so many of these desperately want to be religious and spiritual, knowing there is something more. Some go there out of a rejection of Christ, others have never truly heard the gospel of Jesus.
Good episode. Q: how would one get started obtaining ministry speaking engagements from local churches?
3:48: there is no language called Chinese
Yes, you are correct. In a conversation like this for this audience, we don't feel it is necessary to clarify with "Mandarin." Some participants in the discussion are fluent Mandarin speakers.
step 1: chill and understand that there's no reason to think Christianity is more true than Buddhism there is no step 2.
What makes you so confident of this? Truth exists and can be known. Here are some things to consider. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, but by me" (John 14:6). There are many paths with partial truth. Each one of these is a philosophy or religion conceived in the mind of man and therefore a mixed bag because mankind is finite, limited. We don't have to trust in the ideas of man. God has revealed Himself through His Word. His greatest revelation of Himself is when He became man. I read this Scripture this morning: "By this the love of God was manifested (revealed) in us, that God sent His only begotten Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and send His Son to be the propitiation (that which satisfies God's justice and anger) for our sins...the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world" (1 John 4:9-10, 14).
@@gfamissions not everything in the Bible is true. if you look even a little closely you can see it. now that doesn't mean that the verses that you just posted are untrue, but it does mean that just saying that Christianity is true because the Bible says so is at the very least extremely flawed as an argument.
It requires first TELLING THE TRUTH which Christians are incapable of doing. So it will never work.
Maybe you'll come to see the Buddhists are right.
4pm usa I spent a year in Vietnam and visited several Buddhist temples and would like to know why they were laying food and gifts at the Buddha in the temples
In Hindu temples the food they offer becomes blessed and given to people back. So does Buddhist offers, and so does Christian Eucharist.
I keep seeing the chronic ignorance about "GOD'S MANIFESTATIONS" celebrated by functionaries of the BUSINESS OF THE GOSPEL with usual brainless grin and misguiding fabricated doctrines. They conveniently choose to stay ignorant of GOD'S PROGRESSIVE REVELATIONS, where BUDAH, CHRIST, MOHAMMED, ZOROASTER become "Refence" sources to VERIFY the validity of "THE FULFILLMENT OF ALL THE HOLY SCRIPTURES" that took place in 1844 -1863. Not even informing the HIS "NEW NAME" given translates to "THE GLORY OF GOD", their falsehood and compromised minds reject the notion impulsively, while the Muslims have been killing the "SINCERE TRUTH SEEKERS" that was GUIDED to their long sought JESUS'S PROMISED SECOND COMING since it'sbegginings, now the kill "BAHA'I'S" with immunity, of no concern to the hustlers of faith. They revel and make a handsome buck off of the inculcated ignorance of the gullible and appear gleeful while chronically ignorant. All perpetuating misguidance does is serve the Satan personifieds that benefit from the world of GODLESS people whose induced ignorance they exploit.
Offer food for Karmic reasons. Also important not to confuse folk religion with the teachings of the Buddha.
There are many reasons why Buddhists will lay food and gifts on altars. For some, it is to gain good karma. For others, it is to appeal to gods and spirits and even the Buddha for some gift or blessing that they desire. Some appeal to their ancestors for blessing or to avoid troubles. There is also the practical provision of food for the monks in the temple as well through the offerings. A very important passage in Scripture for Christians about food offered to idols is 1 Cor. 8-10. You can read blog posts about this here: gfamissions.org/c0/food-offered-to-idols-part-1/.

That my teacher 👩🏫
I’m sitting here crying the hardest thing as a single mom who raised my son in the church, Christian school, youth, prayer groups is to see him walk away from God, no church, no talk just says he doesn’t wan5 to be a Christian anymore. He has a Christian wife and a two yr old and seven month old. My daughter-in-law has a big family all Christian’s. He never phones me, distances himself and the brokenness I feel is overwhelming, I hide myself on movies and twitter but then realized that’s becoming an * an idol, I stopped feeling close to God not wanting to read my b8(le, then realized Drus becim8nf an idol as it’s leading me to depression. I tried again this morning get bacj to scriptures and back to God. Watchin*this made me miss Dru and wondered if he even loves me.
Also watching my daughter-in-law Elizabeth now taking the kids to church alone, dies devotions alone and I can’t imagine her disappointment which adds more regret stress . I love her and watching this is unbearable some days. Please pray for Dru

@@gfamissions Thankyou very much, I truly mean that ❤️
@@rosegraham7045 I will add Dru to my prayer list. God loves Him and is pursuing Him, as He is you. Allow this hardship to push you to the Lord. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Hebrews 11:6
Terrific episode, thank you!
Glad it was helpful to you.
I highly prefer Bible story books and materials that use realistic Bible people in the drawings…not cartoon people… so that children associate the Bible characters as really having been real people … not cartoon characters.😊
That is an understandable desire!

Hi Carrie. That's so funny - We must have been too busy chasing kids, dogs, filtering water, and repairing cars to tell childhood stories!!! Hope you are doing well. Think of you fondly and often!

We're thankful to Kimberly Young, Rich Streeter, and the other volunteers who have helped produce nearly 100 of these videos now.
I appreciate pastors who know their people so well that they are not afraid to "think outside the box" to meet perceived spiritual needs. We are a smaller church, but I can see where "adjusting" the services to help promote growth in our people is desirable!
We're glad the discussion on small groups was helpful to you!
Very helpful and encouraging episode. Thanks guys!
Thanks for watching!
