Europe Needs the Gospel!

Those of us who are serving the Lord here in Europe, are greatly burdened about Europe. We are not worried about the economies, or even the cultures – but about the 700 million souls that fill this continent that we all call home! And we are excited too! Excited about the potential of doubling the number of Gospel preaching churches throughout this very dark continent! We all know how Jesus said, “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” What we need is continual motivation and enablement to accomplish that command!

Europe needs more Gospel preaching churches! If 10,000 Bible believing churches were started next year, and each were able to see 100 souls saved that year, that would represent less than .2% of the population of Europe (that’s not even 1/5th of 1 percent)!!!!!!! Europe is going to hell, and we MUST decide to do whatever it takes to make a difference! And it all begins with our commitment to start more churches – places where the clear, simple Gospel of Jesus Christ is faithfully preached, week-in and week-out!

Have you ever noticed how many EUROPEAN cities and countries are listed in the Bible from Acts 16 on? Spain, Greece, Italy, Crete, Malita (Malta), as well as Macedonia, Philippi, Corinth, Rome, Thessolinica, Athens, Neapolis, Amphipolis, Apollonia, Appii Forum, Berea, and Achaia to name a few! Evidently, Europe has a special place in God’s plan! Let’s do what we can to reach more of Europe before it is eternally too late!
