” THE BIBLE- BELIEVE ALL OF IT OR JUST THE PARTS WE LIKE” John 14:6 – 7 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”Two-thirds of those over 40 said humans should determine what is right and wrong morally by examining God’s principles; less than half of Busters felt this way. Instead, nearly half of Busters said that ethics and morals are based on “what is right for the person,” compared with just one-quarter of pre-Busters. “Busters” are those born between the years of 1965 and 1983. Currently, Busters are ages 23 through 41.The Barna Group, Ltd.

Faith involves 1 John 1:8 – 9 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 Corinthians 15:3 – 4, 17 For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. Bible Study Hebrews 4:12 – 13 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

Obedience

John 14:15 – 18 “If you love me, you will obey what I command. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever– 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

Truth

Psalms 33:4For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

In 1959 Dr. Rochunga & Mawii Pudaite landed in Chicago to begin their journey of faith. The only money they took out of India was spent for a night’s lodging in London. But God gave them a dream to translate the Bible for the Hmar tribe of Northeast India and provide education and training for them so that they might become “world citizens,” as God intended them to be.

After they arrived in Chicago, God gave them men and women to serve on their Mission Board and people to support their ministry. This partnership has resulted in the establishment of many village schools and churches, a hospital and a seminary. And thousands of needy children have been supported and educated. Today, 90% of the Hmars can read and write. Some have become doctors, lawyers, political leaders, preachers and teachers.

And in 1971, God gave them a new dream to give a free copy of the New Testament to all the families of the world in response to the commission of the Lord, “the Gospel must first be published among all the nations.” They have sent over 16 million New Testaments to individual homes in over 100 countries.

For over 50 years faithful friends have supported the ministry and cared for the needs of the Hmar people, “whom they have not seen.” The coming of the India Children’s Choir is our way of saying, “thank you, partners-in-faith and thank you America.”
