Footnote: Navigating Diverse Perspectives on Christian Doctrines

Within the realm of Christian theology, there exists a wide array of interpretations and perspectives on various doctrines, some of which may seem contradictory or contentious. Examples include differing views on the timing of the rapture and the beginning of the tribulation, as well as debates surrounding eternal security versus the possibility of a believer losing their salvation. These divergent viewpoints have been subjects of dispute and discussion for centuries among theologians and believers.

It is crucial to recognise that while these doctrinal differences may be significant in shaping individual beliefs and interpretations, they are not essential to the core message of salvation. The foundational tenets of the Christian faith, such as belief in the atoning sacrifice of Christ and the need for repentance and faith in Him, remain constant irrespective of one’s stance on secondary theological matters.

The multiplicity of views on doctrines like the timing of the rapture and eternal security reflects the complexity of interpreting Scripture and the limitations of human understanding. What we believe about these issues is, in essence, our own interpretation or opinion based on our study of Scripture and theological reflection.

However, as time progresses and prophetic events unfold, it is possible that the truth regarding certain doctrines will become clearer. By diligently studying Scripture and engaging with diverse perspectives, believers can develop a deeper understanding of God’s Word and discern the truth amidst differing interpretations.

Therefore, rather than engaging in divisive debates or conflicts over these doctrinal issues, our focus should be on seeking understanding and unity within the body of Christ. By approaching these discussions with humility, openness, and a commitment to truth, we can navigate the complexities of Christian doctrine with grace and discernment.

Ultimately, our goal should be to align ourselves with the revealed truth of God’s Word and to remain receptive to adjusting our views as we grow in knowledge and understanding. As prophetic prophecies unfold in living history, may we be discerning and open-hearted, recognising and embracing the truth as it is unveiled, particularly concerning doctrines such as the timing of the rapture and the beginning of the tribulation.

Equipping God’s People

Empowering believers is at the core of our mission. We understand the importance of preparing God’s people to effectively share their faith. Through training, resources, and collaboration, we equip individuals and churches to become confident ambassadors of the Gospel, ready to impact lives with the message of salvation.

Our Organization

Non-Profit Commitment

Reach NZ Evangelism Network operates as a non-profit organisation, driven by a passion for advancing the Kingdom of God. Our commitment to service goes beyond financial gain, as we channel our resources into collaborative efforts that make a lasting impact on communities and lives.

Networking for Impact

Collaboration is key to our success. We actively network with other evangelists, evangelism organisations, and valuable resources, recognising that our collective impact is greater than individual efforts. Through strategic partnerships, we aim to amplify the reach and effectiveness of evangelism initiatives.

Church Empowerment

We believe in the power of the local church. Reach NZ collaborates with churches, offering support to train their members for evangelism and facilitating outreach programs in their communities. Our goal is to empower churches to be vibrant centres of evangelistic activity, reaching people with the love of Christ.

Understanding the Difference

Ministry of the Evangelist vs. Ministry of Evangelism

It’s crucial to understand the distinction between the Ministry of the Evangelist and the Ministry of Evangelism:

  1. Ministry of the Evangelist: This focusses on individuals specifically called and gifted as evangelists. The Ministry of the Evangelist involves preaching, outreach, and bringing the message of salvation to diverse audiences. It highlights the unique gifts and calling of those anointed for this specific role.
  2. Ministry of Evangelism: This is a collective responsibility for all believers to engage in the work of evangelism. The Ministry of Evangelism involves equipping and mobilising every believer to be a witness for Christ in their spheres of influence.
