The Mission: An Update

The Mission will always be the same as stated in Matthew 28:16-20. There we see Jesus, the Son of Man, holding all authority since He is the King in the kingdom of God. As king, Jesus gives a mission to His people to “go,” along with going is “discipling” and “teaching” with the intent of making disciples in Christ so that they in turn may proclaim and demonstrate Christ’s kingdom and rulership.

This is it! The final stretch and the finish line is within reach. My last semester at Criswell College has finally arrived. Graduation is just around the corner and I praise God for He has sustained me during my study at Criswell College through the love, prayer, encouragement, and financial support of my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. I praise God and rejoice for everyone’s role and effort in this ministry which our Lord has blessed us with. Thank you.

Indeed the mission is the same but now, new paths have been opened. Originally the plan was that I will be graduating this December at Criswell College, then I will go back home to the Philippines, and then I will return to the USA for graduate studies. I still will be graduating this coming December 2008; however, I will not be going home to the Philippines just yet. Instead, I will go attend Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary for my M.Div. immediately following my graduation. Please join me in prayer as I venture into the next stage of preparation that the Lord as set before me.
