"Chosen to Carry the Message"

The BTC celebrated Mission’s Night on October 31, 2025 (Friday), at 6:00 PM in the BTC chapel with the theme “Here I am, send me…” from Isaiah 6:8. The program began with worship through singing songs to the Lord, followed by an encouraging message from God’s Word delivered by Mr. Jeff Mahinay from the batch Truth-Seekers. This was then followed by the viewing of a film based on a true story entitled “Tortured for Christ.”

In Matthew 28:18–20, the Lord commands believers to participate in and complete the Great Commission that the Savior Jesus began. This is the call to share the good news: that Christ became a man, lived among us, was crucified, rose again on the third day, ascended into Heaven, and is now seated at the right hand of the Father, and that whoever believes in Him will receive eternal life.

As believers and followers of Christ, we must always be ready to boldly proclaim and share the true gospel. In this journey, we expect to face persecution, rejection, and even death, because we are spreading the message that the world opposes. But believers, take heart, for God is with us. Our greatest hope is that we have the Triune God who helps us endure and finish the race He has set before us.

Just like Paul, who was once a persecutor but was transformed by God into one who himself was persecuted, yet made an immense contribution to the expansion of God’s Kingdom in many places. He declared in Philippians 1:21, “To live is Christ and to die is gain.” And so must we.
