Vision

We aspire for a society that is spiritually, psychologically, physically, and socially transformed.

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor" (Luke 4:18-19).

Mission

Reach All Nations seeks to reach the unreached nations with the good news of Jesus Christ through training women and men in the word of God, sending and supporting native missionaries, and planting churches. Central to mission is uplifting the poor, downtrodden, and weaker sections in society through educational and community development initiatives.

“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” (Mark 16:15)

Statement of Faith

Reach All Nations has adopted the Lausanne Covenant as our Statement of Faith. This statement expresses the position of all evangelical Christians worldwide. It was written during the 1980 International Congress on World Evangelization by a committee representing 150 nations (http://www.ad2000.org/handbook/lcwe.htm)

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 servants and his witnesses for the extension of his kingdom, the building up of Christ's body and 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. Yet we rejoice that even when borne by earthen vessels the gospel 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.
(Isa. 40:28;: Matt. 28:19; Eph. 1:11; Acts; 15:14; John 17:6, 18; Eph 4:12; 1 Cor. 5:10; Rom. 12:2, II Cor. 4:7)

2. The Authority and Power of the Bible

We affirm the divine inspiration and truthfulness and authority of both Old and New Testament Scriptures in their entirety as the only written word of God without error in all that it affirms and the only infallible rule of faith and practice. We also affirm the power of God's word to accomplish his purpose of salvation. The message of the Bible is addressed to all mankind. For God's revelation in Christ and in Scripture is unchangeable. Through the Holy Spirit still speaks today. He illumines the mind of God s people in every culture to perceive its truth freshly through our own eyes and thus discloses to the whole Church ever more of the many-colored wisdom of God.
(II Tim.3:16; II Pet. 1:21; John 10:35; Isa. 55:11; 1 Cor. 1:21; Rom. 1:16; Matt. 5:17; Jude 3; Eph. 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 of evangelistic approaches. We recognize that all men have some knowledge of God through his general revelation in nature. But we deny that this can save for men suppress the truth by their unrighteousness. 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 man. There is no other name by which we must be saved. All men are perishing because of sin but God loves all men not 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 men are either automatically or ultimately saved, still less to affirm that all religions offer salvation in Christ. Rather it is to proclaim God's love for world of sinners and to invite all men 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.
(Gal. 1:6-9; Rom. 1:8-32; I Tim. 2:5-6; Acts 4:12; John 3:16-19; II Pet.3:9; II Thess. 1:7-9; John 4:42; Matt. 11:28; Eph. 1:20-21; Phil. 2:9-11)
