The Lausanne Covenant The Lausanne Covenant is widely regarded coque samsung ours as one of the most significant documents in modern church history. Emerging from the First Lausanne Congress in 1974, with John Stott as its Chief Architect, it served as a coque integrale samsung s10e great rallying call to the evangelical Church around the world. It defined what it means to be evangelical, and challenged Christians to work together to make Jesus Christ known throughout the world. It is a covenant with one another, and a covenant with God himself. https://www.aquawood.fr/products/coque-iphone-7-plus-souple-715pascher1638 Read the CovenantAvailable TranslationsWe, members of the Church of Jesus Christ, from more than 150 nations, participants in the International Congress on World Evangelization at Lausanne, praise God for his great salvation and rejoice in the fellowship he has given us with himself and with each other. We are deeply stirred by what God is doing in our day, moved to penitence by our failures and challenged by the unfinished task of evangelization. We believe the gospel is God good news for the whole world, and we are determined by his grace to obey Christ commission to proclaim it to all mankind and to make disciples of every nation. https://www.aquawood.fr/products/coque-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime-paillettes-709pascher1838 We desire, therefore, to affirm our faith and our resolve, and to make public our covenant. 1. THE PURPOSE OF GOD We affirm our belief in the one eternal God, Creator and Lord of the world, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who governs all things according to the purpose of his will. He has been calling out from the world a people for himself, and sending his people back into the world to be his coque samsung galaxy a36 servants and his witnesses, for the extension of his kingdom, the building up of Christ body, and coque protection galaxy note 5 the glory of his name. We confess with shame that we have often denied our calling and failed in our mission, by becoming conformed to the world or by withdrawing from it. https://www.aquawood.fr/products/coque-iphone-7-plus-the-walking-dead-715pascher1199 Yet we rejoice that, even when borne by earthen vessels, the gospel coque et film samsung j3 2017 is still a precious treasure. To the task of making that treasure known in the power of the Holy Spirit we desire to dedicate ourselves anew. https://www.alpesprobois.fr/products/samsung-j5-2017-coque-manga-709pascher7470 (Isaiah 40:28; Matthew 28:19; Ephesians 1:11; Acts 15:14; John 17:6,18; Ephesians 4:12; 1 Corinthians 5:10; Romans 12:2; 2 Corinthians 4:7) 2. We also affirm the power of God word to accomplish his purpose of salvation. The message of the Bible is addressed to all men and women. For God revelation in Christ and in Scripture is unchangeable. Through it the Holy Spirit still speaks today. He illumines the minds of God people in every culture to perceive its truth freshly through their own eyes and thus discloses to the whole Church ever more of the many colored wisdom of God. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:21; John 10:35; Isaiah 55:11; 1 Corinthians 1:21; coque samsung a8 silicone fleur Romans 1:16, Matthew 5:17,18; Jude 3; Ephesians 1:17,18; 3:10,18) 3. THE UNIQUENESS AND UNIVERSALITY OF CHRIST We affirm that there is only one Saviour and only one gospel, although there is a wide diversity coque samsung j3 2017 nounours of evangelistic approaches. We recognize that everyone has some knowledge of God through his general revelation in nature. But we deny that this can save, for people suppress the truth by their unrighteousness. Custodia cover Samsung A10 We also reject as derogatory to Christ and the gospel every kind of syncretism and dialogue which implies that Christ speaks equally through all religions and ideologies. Jesus Christ, being himself the only God Man, who gave himself as the only ransom for sinners, is the only mediator between God and people. There is no other name by coque vintage samsung a5 2016 which we must be saved. All men and women are perishing because of sin, but God loves everyone, not coque samsung j3 2016 winnie lourson wishing that any should perish but that all should repent. Yet those who reject Christ repudiate the joy of salvation and condemn themselves to eternal separation from God. To proclaim Jesus as ‘the Saviour of the world’ is not to affirm that all people are either automatically or ultimately saved, still less to affirm that all religions offer salvation in Christ. Rather it is to proclaim God love for a world of sinners and to invite everyone to respond to him as Saviour and Lord in the wholehearted personal commitment of repentance and faith. Jesus Christ has been exalted above every other name; we long for the day when every knee shall bow to him and every tongue shall confess him Lord. (Galatians 1:6 9; Romans 1:18 32; l Timothy 2:5,6; Acts 4:12; John 3:16 19; 2 Peter 3:9; 2 Thessalonians 1:7 9; John 4:42; Matthew 11:28; Ephesians 1:20,21; Philippians 2:9 coque samsung j5 2017 sexy 11) 4. THE NATURE OF EVANGELISM To evangelize is to spread the good news that Jesus Christ died for our sins and was raised from the dead according to the Scriptures, and that, as the reigning Lord, he now offers the forgiveness of sins and the liberating gifts of the Spirit to all who repent and believe. Our Christian presence in the world is indispensable to evangelism, and so is that kind of dialogue whose coque iphone xs max anime purpose is to listen sensitively in order to understand. But evangelism itself is the proclamation of the historical, biblical jonsnow cd degrade paillettes telephone etui pour iphone 7 8 plus 6 p 6 s housse etuis pour iphone x Christ as Saviour and Lord, with a view to persuading people to come to him personally and so be reconciled to God. In issuing the gospel invitation we have no liberty to conceal the cost of discipleship. Custodia cover Samsung A40 https://www.alpesprobois.fr/products/coque-custodia-cover-fundas-iphone-11-pro-max-5-6-7-8-plus-x-xs-xr-se2020-c27148-naked-urban-decay-smoky-palette-iphone-11-pro-case Jesus still calls all who would follow him to deny themselves, take up their cross, coque iphone 7 plus gris and identify themselves with his new community. The results of evangelism include obedience to Christ, incorporation into his Church and responsible service in the world. (1 Corinthians 15:3,4; Acts 2:32 39; John 20:21; 1 Corinthians 1:23; 2 Corinthians 4:5; 5:11,20; Luke 14:25 33; Mark 8:34; Acts 2:40,47; Mark 10:43 45) 5. CHRISTIAN SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY We affirm that God is both the Creator and the Judge of all men. We therefore should share his concern for justice and reconciliation throughout human society and for the liberation of men and women from every kind of oppression. Because men and women are made in the image of God, every person, regardless of race, religion, colour, culture, class, sex or age, has an intrinsic dignity because of which he or she should be respected and served, not exploited. Custodia Cover Iphone 7/8 PLUS Here too we express penitence both for our neglect and for having sometimes regarded evangelism and social concern as mutually exclusive. Although reconciliation with other people is not reconciliation with God, nor is social action evangelism, nor is political liberation salvation, nevertheless we affirm that evangelism and socio political involvement are both part of our Christian duty. For both are necessary expressions of our doctrines of God and Man, our love for our neighbour and our obedience to Jesus Christ. The message of salvation implies also a message of judgment upon every form of alienation, oppression and discrimination, and we should not be afraid to denounce evil and injustice wherever they exist. When people receive Christ they are born again into his kingdom and must seek not only to exhibit but also to spread its righteousness in the midst of an unrighteous world. The salvation we claim should be coque samsung galaxy s10e rose transforming us in the totality of our personal and social responsibilities. Faith without works is dead. (Acts 17:26,31; Genesis 18:25; Isaiah 1:17; Psalm 45:7; Genesis 1:26,27; James 3:9; Leviticus 19:18; Luke 6:27,35; James 2:14 26; John 3:3,5; Matthew 5:20; 6:33; 2 Corinthians 3:18; James 2:20) 6. THE CHURCH AND EVANGELISM We affirm that Christ sends his redeemed people into the world as the Father sent him, and that this calls for a similar deep and costly penetration of the world. We need to break coque iphone xs max chrome out of our ecclesiastical ghettos and permeate non Christian society. In the Church mission of sacrificial service, evangelism is primary. World evangelization requires the whole Church to take the whole gospel to the whole world. https://www.aquawood.fr/products/coque-iphone-7-phrase-dur-715pascher2470 The Church is at the very centre of God cosmic purpose and is his appointed means rhinoshield coque samsung j3 of spreading the gospel. But a church which preaches the cross must itself be marked by the cross. It becomes coque samsung j5 2017 avion a stumbling block to evangelism when it betrays the gospel or lacks a living faith in God, a genuine love for people, or scrupulous honesty in all things including promotion and finance. The church is the community of God people rather than an institution, and must not be identified with any particular culture, social or political system, or human ideology. https://www.alpesprobois.fr/products/coque-iphone-7-plus-fruit-710pascher820 (John 17:18; 20:21; Matthew 28:19,20; Acts 1:8; 20:27; Ephesians 1:9,10; 3:9 11; Galatians 6:14,17; 2 Corinthians 6:3,4; 2 Timothy 2:19 21; Philippians 1:27) 7. COOPERATION IN EVANGELISM We affirm that the Church visible unity in truth is coque samsung galaxy j3 2016 batman God purpose. Evangelism also summons us to unity, because our oneness strengthens our witness, just as our disunity undermines our gospel of reconciliation. We recognize, however, that organizational unity may take many forms and does not necessarily advance evangelism. Custodia cover Samsung S7 Yet we who share the same biblical faith should be closely coque iphone 6 evo wallet united in fellowship, work and witness. We confess that our testimony has sometimes been marred by coque samsung galaxy s2 i9100 a sinful individualism and needless duplication. We pledge ourselves to seek a deeper unity in truth, worship, holiness and mission. We urge the development of regional and functional cooperation for the furtherance of the Church mission, for strategic planning, for mutual encouragement, and for the sharing of resources and experience. (John 17:21,23; Ephesians 4:3,4; John 13:35; Philippians 1:27; John 17:11 23) 8. Custodia cover Samsung A50 CHURCHES IN EVANGELISTIC PARTNERSHIP We rejoice that a new missionary era has dawned. The dominant role of western missions is fast disappearing. God is raising up from the younger churches a great new resource for world evangelization, and is thus demonstrating that the responsibility to evangelize belongs to the whole body of Christ. All churches should therefore be asking God and themselves what they should be doing both to reach their own coque rose paillette iphone 6 area and to send missionaries to other parts of the world. A re evaluation of our missionary responsibility and role should be continuous. Thus a growing partnership of churches will develop and the universal character of Christ Church will be more clearly exhibited. Custodia Cover Iphone X/XS We also thank God for agencies which labor in Bible translation, theological education, the mass media, Christian literature, evangelism, missions, church renewal and other specialist fields.
