Missions

 

Bethel is committed to spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ through out the world by supporting the Assemblies of God missionary efforts.

The Assemblies of God is one of the largest evangelical missionary-sending organizations in the world, with over 4,500 long- and short-term foreign missionaries  serving in over 100 nations of the world. In addition, there are over 375 long-term nationally-appointed "home missionaries" serving within the United States.

Our Message is Bible BasedBIBLE-BASED.The  Assemblies of God Fellowship is a Bible movement. Our founding  leaders placed the doctrine concerning the Bible first in our Statement of Fundamental Truths. God's Word is foundational to everything we believe, preach, teach and practice. Though heaven and earth will pass away, God's Word will live forever.  The unchanging instrument of the Holy Spirit and our infallible guide-God's inspired Word is the seed of the world harvest, bread for the spiritually hungry and the light that proclaims  God's grace and deliverance to a world that is lost and bound  in the darkness of sin.

Our Message is Spirit EmpoweredSPIRIT-EMPOWERED. We  depend on God's divine power because our mission depends on  miracles. As Pentecostals, we know that just preaching and  publishing the message is not enough. Hearts must be opened. Lives must be changed. The Church must be established. These  can only be established by God himself. The Holy Spirit imparts  spiritual gifts and abilities to God's messengers. And the same Holy Spirit that inspired God's Holy Word illumines its truth to the minds of hearers and opens their hearts to respond  to its message. We totally rely on the Holy Spirit to give  life to the message we preach and to cause growth from the seed we sow. The Spirit convinces of sin, brings assurance  of sins forgiven, imparts peace through understanding, and guides into all truth. A Pentecostal mission acknowledges  and depends on the Holy Spirit to empower our message so it  can bear the fruit God has promised.

 Our Message is Christ Centered

CHRIST-CENTERED.The focus of the Pentecostal message is Jesus Christ. John the Baptist proclaimed him the Lamb of God who  takes away the sin of the world! Jesus.God who became  man, showing us the character of our Creator and Heavenly  Father, is the Redeemer of lost humanity the Savior of the  whole world. He offered up His life to redeem sinful mankind. Only through Him do we have peace with God. After a sinless  life, He rose from death that whoever believes in Him could have everlasting life. He is preparing a place for us and He has promised to come again for us so we can be with Him for eternity. Missionary Richard Bernhard Johnson saw more than 1.8 million come forward for salvation in crusades in  Brazil. When asked what he believed accounted for the great numbers who responded he replied, I always exalt Jesus Christ!  Our message to this lost, sinful world is like that of the  missionary apostle Paul, none other than Christ, and Him crucified.

Bethel is committed to these principals. Please visit our missionaries page to learn more about the ambassadors that we support.
