World Evangelical Alliance General Secretary, Bishop Efraim Tendero, delivered a sermon at the World Olivet Assembly headquarters chapel on Sunday, July 17, 2016. The sermon was centered on the active participation of all believers in global evangelism. 

Bishop Tendero was very thankful and honored to speak with members of World Olivet Assembly. His message came from Acts 5:27-32 and explained three reasons as to why every believer should be involved in evangelism. 

The first reason for the involvement of global evangelism is to obey the executive order of the Father God. The second reason is to present the exclusive offer of the Son, Jesus Christ. And thirdly, to experience the explosive power of the Holy Spirit. 

Bishop Tendero encouraged the congregation to proclaim the gospel to the whole world.

"Let us do the main task that will bring transformation. We believe that the gospel is the power of God," he said. "Let's enable the churches to advance the good news of Jesus Christ and effect personal and community transformation. We should connect for common action, represent with a global voice, and equip for global impact."

Let us obey the father in heaven, offer the exclusive offer of Jesus Christ, and allow the Holy Spirit to flow in our lives. 

Bishop Tendero expressed his gratitude for the WEA and WOA partnership that remains very strong. He prays the co-work may lead to greater power for the evangelization of the world.

Thanksgiving is more than a national tradition; it is a spiritual discipline. The Apostle Paul’s words to the Thessalonians remind us that gratitude is not reserved for good days or easy seasons. It is an act of faith that sees God’s hand at work even when circumstances are unclear.

Appointing Elders, Advancing the Gospel

Paul's letter to Titus opens with urgency and mission. Crete had received the gospel. Churches had been planted. But Paul makes it clear: the work wasn't finished.
