(Continued on page 8)

However, the Israelites failed to live up totheir calling and eventually God allowedthe Babylonians to execute punishmenton them. When we come to the New Tes-tament, God now intends for the churchto be that holy nation.

1 Peter 2:9 NIV

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people be-

longing to God, that you may declare thepraises of him who called you out of dark-ness into his wonderful light.

This verse declares our position in thekingdom of God and the authority andability that God has given to us to accom-plish the ministry assigned. As we submitwillingly to Him, God will assign to eachone of us the goal, the task and the posi-tion. The task is to be a royal priesthood.Not many Christians truly have the knowl-edge and understanding of this teaching.That leads to the failure in living out the

priesthood and in exercising the functionof a priest.


In the Old Testa-ment, God had in-tended that thenation of Israelwould be a

kingdom of priestsand a holy na-tion (Exodus 19:6).

A crossover training from Adult(Classic) EE to Xee was held on Feb 16-17 atWisma Eagles, Subang Jaya for clinicians whowere previously trained in Adult EE. The train-ing objective was to assist Adult EE trainedTeacher-Trainers to understand and imple-ment Xee in the various churches and fellow-ships.

The training leaders were Voon YuenWoh, Chairman EE Malaysia and Stephen Han-lon, Xee Coordinator for Asia. The training syl-labus included explanations on the strengths &weaknesses of Adult EE, Generational Differ-

ences, differences of philosophies of Xee andAdult EE etc. Many questions were raised andanswered during the two-day training. As partof the training, the participants were involvedin role playing and small group discussions.These creative methods of learning contrib-

uted to the enthusiasm of the group.

Among those who attended includedrepresentatives from Miri Gospel Chapel, FullGospel Tabernacle, Praise Baptist Centre SriDamansara, Peoples' Park Baptist Church PJ,The Hope of Glory Centre Ampang, LCMS 11thMile Cheras, Emmanuel Evangelical FreeChurch Wangsa Maju, Glad Tidings PJ, FirstBaptist Church PJ, Canning Garden BaptistChurch Ipoh, River of Life Sanctuary BandarPuteri, and Full Gospel Assembly Sungai Buloh.

The crossover training ended with a challenge

to all participants to continue to carry on thework of the gospel. In Malaysia, EE is only ac-tive in a few states. The goal now is to reachour nation using Xee, a tool to disciple a newgeneration of believers and to proclaim thename of Jesus.

One of our prospects was our cousin whoowns a religious bookstore. We had an intellectual

but a meaningful dialogue, and the Xee team, man-aged to whet up his appetite to search for the truth.

There wasone profession,and only last Sun-day his wholefamily turned upfor church! TheXee teams alsovisited friends thathad lost theirfaith, and theselost sheep wereseen returning to

Someone asked me, You verygung-ho, hah First Semester, start offwith twelve people, and you only havetwo Xee trainers!

I can only smile. WITH THE WORKWITH THE WORKOF THE KINGDOM, THERES NO LIMITINGOF THE KINGDOM, THERES NO LIMITINGGOD OR WHAT HE CAN DGOD OR WHAT HE CAN DOO.

I am very thankful to God for pro-viding us with an environment where so

much of Gods love and grace wereshown when we were doing the sessions,role plays, and when making contact withour friends. I am also thankful for thePrayer Partners who were faithfully inter-ceding for us. Every Sunday after service,groups of threes sit together in the sanc-

tuary to share needs, update one another and pray.Not only did the Prayer Partners pray for Xee, but thetrainees also prayed for their partners.

The benefits of conducting Xee in PeoplesPark Baptist Church certainly outweighed the sacri-fice. Trainees told me that their friendship with the

world took on meaningful turns. With fewer discus-sions on politics, business markets and horrid bosses,trainees became more intentional at taking the con-versation to saving faith.

In the stress of looking for opportunities,the Xee teams threw away their self-consciousness,rolled up their sleeves, and called their friends. Wetalked about a wide range of topics, from motorbikes,insurance, Kris Allen, reconditioned furniture andthen, creatively turning these hot topics into do theygive us the ultimate fulfillment?

In all the Connects, I am constantly remindedof how Jesus replied to the experts of the law, woe

to you, because you load people down with burdensthey can hardly carry, and you yourselves will not liftone finger to help them. In our Connects, OUR FIRSTOUR FIRSTPRIORITY WAS PEOPLEPRIORITY WAS PEOPLE, to respect them for their val-

NEW PHASEOF GROWTHEE is embarking on a new and exciting phase of its growth.The growth of Evangelism Explosion over the past two dec-ades has been remarkable. However, the organisationalstructure put in place 20 years ago does not serve well thechallenges of operating this dynamic and growing ministryin a global environment.

GREATER VOICETO NATIONAL MINISTRIESRecognising this, the International Board will establish amechanism for giving greater voice and influence to Na-tional Ministries. The plan is that approximately every threeyears a Congress of Multiplying Nations will be held. Theserepresentatives, together with Regional Directors and VicePresidents from around the world, will join in planning,problem solving, encouraging, and strategising for the min-istry of EE both globally and regionally.FIRST CONGRESSOF MULTIPLYING NATIONS

April this year, I was part of the six weektraining for IFWs (Implementation FieldWorkers) at Kennedy Training Centre inNadi, Fiji.

During the training, we had sessions discov-ering our individual strengths and personal-ity types and were taught how to raise upministry partners. We were involved in run-ning/teaching two clinics as well.

There were 26 of us IFWs from 14 nations,and it was wonderful learning from eachother's cultures and experiences. It was veryhard to say goodbye at the end of these 6weeks, but the work of the Lord must go on,and with this training, we trust we'll be moreeffective in assisting churches to multiply byigniting a passion for the lost and empower-ing them to accomplish the Great Commis-sion!

Thank you all for your prayers duringthe six weeks. Indeed we all left Fiji not onlywith the tools to be more effective IFWs, butwith a greater love for the Lord and the lost!Thank you so much.

Pastor Voon's brother who happens to work inthe company that oraganised the event. He sug-gested for me to channel the prospect back toFGT. The prospect ran out of business cards andsaid he would email me for further correspon-

dence. So, thank you and wow!

I am writing in great happiness to tell you that Ihave used EE today at an unlikely place to leadsomeone to Christ! Praise the Lord. My 4th OJT!

At an event I was emceeing, the conversation ofspiritual awareness came up during lunch. I usedthat as a spring board and continue to share theGospel amidst the music and yum-seng-ing.

And interestingly the prospect listen attentivelyand felt EE's way was not pushy like he has nor-mally encountered. And though there were toomany distractions around, I asked for his commit-ment, and he said yes.

I did the clarification and voila ---- we stepped outof the event and I prayed with him in the VIPholding room. I did not have the "Partners inGrowing today only because it is too heavy forme (which obviously was a wrong decision!), so Icould not give him.

But I told him some one would call him to followup. I was in disbelief and GOD SENT A CONFIGOD SENT A CONFIR-R-

Our responsibilities as priests are two-fold:

Firstly, we represent God before those who do not knowGod.

Paul taught us this truth:

2 Cor 5:18-20 NIV

All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself throughChrist and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God wasreconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men'ssins against them. And he has committed to us the messageof reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, asthough God were making his appeal through us. We imploreyou on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God ...

It is unthinkable that God should entrust to unworthy and

filthy people like us this important office and to be His ambas-sadors to reconcile man to God. How great is this honor andblessing! This is a great God-given privilege and authority.Therefore, we should always count it a joy to share the gospelwith others. Its sad to see so many Christians who are notliving out their priesthood, not representing God in the waythat those around can have the chance to hear the gospel andto put their faith in Christ. Unbelievers would like to seeChristians as priests whose lives demonstrate the character ofChrist.

(Continued from page 1)

Secondly, as priests, we intercedefor others.

We bring the needs of people be-

fore God, and plead for His mercyand help.

Heb 4:16 NIV

Let us then approach the throne ofgrace with confidence, so that wemay receive mercy and find graceto help us in our time of need.

This is the precious promise whichGod gives to us: that we will indeedfind grace to help us whenever wecome to Gods throne of grace.

When we walk the way of faith we

engage in spiritual warfare. The believer will face variouskinds of difficulties, temptations and even frustrations. With-out the prayer of the priest (the Christian), failure is guaran-teed. George Muller spent 52 years without ceasing to prayfor his five friends. At the end, all of them accepted Jesus astheir personal savior although two of them accepted Christonly two years after he died.

No wonder a pastor once encouraged us with this prayer les-son: When you are willing to pray, you will know there is aGod; when you pray as you see, you know God will help you;when you pray as you think, you know God has victory over

all.

May the Lord help us to always have this attitude in prayingfor the EE ministry, in praying for our friends and for our rela-tives. My wish is that all of us will be willing to become Hisfaithful priests.
