"Jesus came to serve" mark 10

Love one another (Prayer for Bible Japan and Korea)

We must love one another. 1 John 3:11
I give you a new command: as I  have loved you, so you must love one another. John 13:34

Due to the recent development on the relationship between Korea and Japan I grew concerned about the wellbeing of the friends of our Lord Jesus in Japan, so I sent an email to the director of Japan asking about whether or not persecutions are afoot against Korean missionaries. About a month later he responded asking for prayer support, that is, the prayer for the Korean government/people to not only get along but also to love Japan/her people, stating in part, "다만 한일관계가 안 좋을 때마다 제 마음이 아픈 것은 한국을 사랑하고 한국에 도움을 주고자 얘쓰는 일본인들, 일본에서 사업하고 일본과 관련된 일을 하시는 분들의 생업에서  피해를 많이 본다는 것입니다. 특히 예전에 이명박대통령이 독도를 방문했을 때는 한국음식점의 영세상인들 가게 문을 닫아야 하는 경우도 많이 발생했었습니다. 이번에도 장기화되면은 한국과 일본이 관계되는 일을 하시는 분들은 많은 어려움을 겪을 것 같습니다. 하나님께서 저희들을 불쌍히 여기시고 서로 사랑하는 관계가 되게 해 주시기를..."

In the meantime, may the Lord keep the coworkers in Japan safe and strong:

kingdom channel

Upon being asked by one of his disciples how one should pray, Jesus said, "This is how you should pray: our heavenly Father, hallowed be your name; your kingdom come...on earth as it is in heaven..." Matthew 6:10

He then said to one of the Bible scholars of his day, "Kingdom of God  is within you." Luke 17:21 American King James Version

This indicates that one is a channel in which God's kingdom is broadcast, just like a cell phone like Samsung Galaxy Note 8 can run a disney channel.

Last night (or early this morning) I had a dream where as I walk through a garden which looked like a wedding locale/venue, all of a sudden with joyful noise, there i saw before my eyes approaching a heavenly parade with tons of angelic figures marching singing and dancing with myriads of flowery sceneries emerging and disappearing scene after scene in a row up in the air. As soon as I heard the sound of parade starting I pulled out of my pocket my cell phone, set it on a video mode, and started recording the parade. Then I woke up. And it was a dream. Feeling sorry, I looked for and opened my phone, and there were no videos recorded!

Then the dawn turned into sunrise, a bright day. I got out of bed, and before making morning coffee, I chose to write this memory down, for memory thins out so quick. 

One word: you are a royal priesthood... called out to declare praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light (1pe 2:9)

World Mission News Update - August by Jose Paul Ahn

World Mission News August as reported by Dr. Jose Paul Ahn

Thank God for blessing ESBC (8.8-11) with all prayer supports: 

ESBC (GLEF, Vision Camp, CBF, ESBC) gave us great confidence and a new vision for Europe! Jesus is life! Jesus is reviving Europe as a missionary sending continent through our HC ministry, one to one, disciple-making ministry among native leaders and next gens. 

We saw the 1st stage of the mission (First gens do/next gens see) is passing by, 2nd stage (First/next gens co-work together) is now happening in this ESBC conference. We could see the vision of the 3rd stage (First gens see while next gens do far greater things!) will happen soon in World campus mission! 

-P. Moses Yoon’s encouraging message in ESBC, from Matt 28, “go and make disciples of all nations!” empowered many Next-Gens to be short term missionaries: for example:

A next-gen H Kim of Europe decided to go to Latin country in Sept-December 2019, in her gap year after HS graduation.Another next-gen A decided to go to Mexico one year as a STM when he graduates his college in 2021 as an exchange student. Still another M said, "I have decided to be a coworker of my parents’ one HC with all my heart. There must be many more next gens who decided to serve the Lord and his WM through these conferences as a STM as well as in their own mission fields with their parents.

P. Moses Yoon also led a meeting among Korean, German, English DB writers during ESBC:

They decided to have the same DB passages from 2021 in Korean, Germany, English, Spanish and other languages. It will facilitate and encourage next-gen’s communication with the word of God all the more.

CBF conference in ESBC: M. Hannah Shin and Czech hold CBF conference during the ESBC with their own separate program for 4 days. Total 107 CBF members gathered in two language groups (Korean students 30 with 11 teachers (Korea 6, EU 4, USA 1, 3 messengers), and 63 German students.

*Central Asia International conference in Almaty, Kazakhstan. (8/16-18)

The 1st day high lights: Opening message (Jn14, by Francis Yoon, Astana 2), Evening Lec 1, (John 5, by Ulan, Oshi), the 2nd-day Lec 2 (Jn 8, by Izbasar, Almati) given today. Pls keep praying for Lec 3 (Lk 23, by Bolat, Astana), Lec 4 (Jn 21, Joshua, Bishkek)

Prayer topics: By the Holy Spirit may God protect the conference held in Almaty without any hindrances or disruption from the Government. May God bless 8/18 international HC between Georgiy Kaykatsishvili (Moscow Baumann UBF) and Lilya Philipova (Uzbekistan Tashkent)

*St. Petersburg International conference (8/22-25) 

1. May the messengers may prepare messages from their deep heart. 

2. May the Life testimony speakers recognize Gods grace on their lives and stand firm on the love and faith in Jesus.

3. We may overcome Satan's hindrances through prayers and glorify God only through the conference.

*Japan Summer Bible Conference (8.9-11) "You are the Christ" and 2nd gens House Church on 8/11 (Daniel Jung)

In spite of the recent hard relationship between Korea and Japan, the Lord allowed the 30th anniversary of UBF Japan SBC (8.9-11). Special guests: P. Joshua Lee who was in Gwangju, supporting Japan ministry from the early days of pioneering.M. Daniel Yoshiba (Chicago) supported Japan 1st SBC by helping missionaries who did not speak Japanese well in 1989. Ms. Marie Lopez, the first missionary from Japan, with her mother and her coworker Terry Lopez.(LA). Her mother accepted Jesus, working hard on Bible study. We shed tears for God’s grace for the last 30 years. 

S. Naomi Oi gave a very gracious and clear message, "What is your name?" Each person was grateful for his name, striving to be like his name. The new Q & A time was also very good. The next Lecture, by Daniel Yoshiba (Japanese Missionary to USA): “Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God”

*Japan new gen's HC between Samuel Jung and Sarah, Kim on 8/11 

May this first HC between next gens be a blessing for Japan, Asia and WM mission!
