Why Evangelism and Missions

Why should evangelism and missions be high priorities for believers and local churches today? True, they are the proper things to do, and they carry an air of respectability as they are mentioned frequently in our circles. This is all well and good; but are we really burdened for the unsaved, and do we weep for those around the world who have never trusted Christ as Savior? And who is going to tell them about their Savior? What kind of strategy do we have individually and corporately to reach those close to us and those around the world with the gospel message?

An Idea of a Seminary

And the things which thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. 2 Timothy 2:2 Where is the pastor who has not some time dreamed, “If I were to start a seminary—?” Where is the teacher who has not gazed at the same vision? We begin at the end: what is the product we need? Men of God? Flaming preachers? Capable pastors? Heroic missionaries? All of the above?
