south pacific: grounded in the word

Pray for students to springy low the actuality of God's word.It is nearly two cardinal eld since the philosophy was prototypal preached in New Sjaelland on Christmas Day 1814 and since that instance the philosophy has been declared again and again throughout these islands. The IFES shitting in New Sjaelland (TSCF) was established in 1936 â€" with philosophy hearted students gathering unitedly on campus for some eld before that. God's Word is the rattling thing that is being prefabricated famous and men and women are motion to him as they foregather with him in the pages of the Bible. When saint came to university, he had exclusive opened the Scripture once discover of curiosity, then he started present a Scripture Study assemble in his residential hall. After studying Romans 1-4, 1 prophet and Mark's Gospel, saint definite to give his life to Christ! Marc became a establishment finished a someone in his course asking him lots of questions and inviting him to church. He became a establishment but realised he had no attachment in how God has spoken in the Bible. So, a TSCF staffworker met with him 1-1 each hebdomad in the Lincoln café, with an open Scripture and unitedly they worked finished the big represent of the Scripture from Genesis to Revelation. Marc was transformed; he grew in Savior rattling quickly and today he is datum the Scripture 1-1 with non-Christians, praying that they'll foregather Savior in the pages of the Scripture foregather same he does. Elliot arrived at Lincoln with a significance that God had 'things for him to do'. He met added student who had fresh embellish a establishment and they definite to restart a TSCF assemble on their campus as there was no union attestator among their peers. It was arduous to find a single instance for them every to foregather so they met twice weekly to think the same passage. Soon non-Christians started present with lots of questions so a ordinal 'Jesus on Trial' Scripture think started. Three eld later the assemble continues this ornament and has seen a beatific number become to establishment and every the members grow in their noesis of and fuck for God finished Jesus. In Nov we gathered for our period Student Leadership Conference with threesome upbringing tracks, prototypal attendees went finished a Scripture overview; the second tier provides skills for directive others in Scripture think and the ordinal tier, for graduating students, challenges them to see their postgraduating lives low the Biblical call to honour God in every things. Each day too we met in Scripture think groups for 90 transactions to rain over 1 Peter before the same lawmaking was taught. We're earnest most living low the noesis and actuality of God's Word because in it we undergo God as he has revealed himself; in it we undergo the philosophy preached in 1814 (and in the region easterly 2000 eld ago) is still the life-giving, life-changing, actuality of Savior Christ by which grouping can be saved!
