Multiply

The ancient Jews could not fully achieve their mission to the world because they claimed their rich history for themselves, instead of sharing it–Dragutin Matak

Are we as Seventh-day Adventists repeating history? An exclusive faith is incompatible with an inclusive Father who sent His Son to die for everyone. Broken people, scarred by failed trust, past abuse, loneliness, and suffering, are looking for places to be accepted, places to exhale, places to be fulfilled on their life journey. Is your church that place? Are you sharing your safe place with them?

When Jesus said, go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, (Matthew 28:19, ESV), it was not a call for addition; it was a call for multiplication.
