One of the things that differentiated Jesus from the Pharisees was His LOVE and COMPASSION for others. The first thing the world must see in us, as Christians, is not our “standards” or “position” on the issues of the day. The first thing that they must see is the LOVE and COMPASSION of Christ that flows through us to those around us. #thegospelstillworks1040 #pacificbaptistchurchphnompenh #prayforlaborers1040 #makingdisciples1040 #teamsoutheastasia
The believers in this church 1) RECEIVED the gospel (1 Thessalonians 1:5) and then they 2) TOLD OTHERS how they could be saved as well (1 Thessalonians 1:8). If the message of salvation has “come” to us - we have a responsibility to “sound forth” the truth to those who have never heard. According to Joshuaproject, 41% of the worlds population (representing 7,101 people groups) is still unreached with the gospel. As someone who lives in the third world, it is troubling to see how the most debased aspects of our western culture has permeated the east and been embraced by so many in Southeast Asia and yet there multiplied millions of people who have never even one time heard the name of Jesus Christ other than as a curse word in an American movie. #pacificbaptistchurchphnompenh #prayforlaborers1040 #makingdisciples1040 #teamsoutheastasia #pbbccambodia
In the part of the world where we serve, an idol is often something that has been formed from stone or concrete. While many of us do not bow down to these types of idols nor seek help from the evil spirits that are associated with them, it is possible for us to have hidden idols in our own heart. An idol is any possession, any person, any ideology or activity in our life that has usurped the preeminence that Christ deserves. It’s good for us to remember that our affection is to be settled on Christ and things above. #pacificbaptistchurchphnompenh #prayforlaborers1040 #makingdisciples1040 #teamsoutheastasia #pbbccambodia

Also, pray that the finances will be provided in order to complete the entire building. #pacificbaptistchurchphnompenh #prayforlaborers1040 #makingdisciples1040 #teamsoutheastasia
