Foreign Mission Report

1979

“But ye shall receive power, after the Holy Spirit is come upon you; and ye shall be wit-

nesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part

of the earth” (Acts 1:8)

“Unto the uttermost part of the earth” is the theme for our foreign mission work. In our

state, we have churches now sponsoring foreign missions and missionaries in eight differ-

ent countries. There are other churches now preparing and making plans to send men and

their families into new foreign fields. The theme, “Unto the uttermost part of the earth.” is

truly active in California.

In the past year, reports from our missionaries indicate progresses in the work. Souls

have been saved and baptized. Missions are becoming stronger and more independent. Men

have dedicated their lives to the ministry. Schools are continuing to operate with success in

training native pastors. Native publications have been printed and received with great suc-

cess. These and other spiritual blessings have been ours to enjoy.

However, in reviewing our last year of foreign mission work, we find many set backs

which seemingly would hamper the work of Christ. In almost every foreign country where

our churches have mission points, unfortunate circumstances have taken place. Hardships

and trials have come and death has taken its toll. Yet many of these circumstances, as Paul

said in Philippians 1:12, “have turned out for the greater progress of the gospel”. When God

allows these trials to take place, we usually don’t immediately understand. However, we

need to trust God that His purpose in them is for the furtherance of His work. For this, may

we give thanks to our God who gives us renewed hope in fulfilling the goal of seeing the

church of the Lord Jesus Christ established in other lands.

May we each strive to help share financially and take part prayerfully in the foreign mis-

sion endeavours of our sister churches. For in so doing, we look forward to another year

with encouraged hearts and uplifted eyes on the fields set before us, together.

Home Mission Report

Home missions begin within each local church, within each family of the local church

and within the local community of each church. It is said of Andrew in John 1:40-42, “he

first findeth his own brother Simon”.

Home missions are the cornerstone of all foreign missions. As in all things the local

church is the center of all phases of mission work.

Prayer, support and encouragement should be given to each local missionary and mission

project.

Since local missions are totally dependent upon the local churches it is of the utmost

importance there be agreement, communication and harmony between mission projects and

the local church. This can be accomplished through regular reports on the part of the mis-

sionary and a personal knowledge of their needs and problems by the local church.

Christian Literature Report

The Apostle Paul in his second letter to Timothy said, “Study to show thyself approved

unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the work of truth.”

This passage is a command to Timothy, and is also a command for God’s people today. We

are living in a time when there is so much false teaching and false literature being distrib-

uted that it is easy to be led astray if one is not aware of what the word of God teaches.

Therefore we would recommend that God’s people spend more time in the study and

meditation of God’s word.

We also recommend the use of our American Baptist Association Literature and the

many aids they have available for teaching in our churches. We believe it to be sound and

true to the teachings of the Bible.

To keep up with the progress of Missionary Baptists around the world, we would recom-

mend the several Missionary Baptist papers that are published throughout our work, and

also the continued support of these papers.

Christian Education Report

April 4, 1979

Christian education is the universal imperative of our times. Solomon said, “Train up

a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” Christian

education logically grows out of the Commission that Christ gave to His churches. Baptists

do have an educational debt to the world, and it can be liquidated only by Baptist teaching.

Education is not merely the acquisition but the use of knowledge. In fact, an educational

program involves the four steps of acquisition, assimilation, appropriation and application.

Many have been TOLD. Some have been TAUGHT. Few have been TRAINED. Educa-

tion involves training. A person may acquire information, but he is not educated until this

knowledge becomes a part of his life and is used to serve himself and others. This involves

training.

The religious training of a child is a complex and comprehensive process. It involves his

intellect, his emotions, and his will. For this reason, Baptists should have a strong teaching

program in both their Sunday School and B.T.C. programs. That a child may know, ad-

equate provision must be made in our educational program for him to acquire information,

have the opportunity to worship, and the occasion to express it.

Adults and special called workers should have an opportunity for further training be-

yond the local church. Since it is evident that most local churches cannot meet this need

alone, we can co-operate in supporting the Seminaries that God has given us in the State of

California. For several years C.M.B. I. at Bellflower has proven herself worthy of support.

More recently F.M.B.I. at Fresno has been established for similar training and support. This

century’s call for culture is louder and clearer than ever before. So there have been some

churches that are sponsoring extension courses. May God bless them every one. We must

not be neglectful of the doors that have been opened for us to advance Christian education.

In the words of Dr. Travis Hubbard, “Studying is hard work, and most of us by nature are

lazy.” Pray, work for, and participate in our Christian education programs that we may not

be found lazy in this matter.

RESOLUTION

To the Cooperative Association of Missionary Baptist Churches of California

Brethren whereas we have varied practices among our churches on the matter of where and

when we allow our missions to partake of the Lord’s Supper; And whereas there is incon-

sistency in permitting the missionary to baptize and teach in the mission, which is a called

out assembly, and not be allowed to administer the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper; And

whereas our brethren who are members of the missions are called upon to participate in all

other phases of church work; be it resolved that we recommend that the members of our

missions be given the privilege of partaking of the Lord’s Supper in whatever place they are

assembled under the watch care of our missionaries.

By order of the Living Word Missionary Baptist Church

John E. McClung, Pastor

DOCTRINAL STATEMENT RESOLUTION

Whereas there are differing opinions among Missionary Baptists as to the definition of

a scriptural Baptist Church, and

Whereas agreement on such a definition is essential to the harmonious functioning of

this association of churches, and

Whereas Doctrinal Statement Number 10 in our minutes lacks a detailed definition,

Therefore be it resolved that Doctrinal Statement Number 10 be amended to deleting

the entire statement and replacing it with the following statement, hereafter to be known as

Doctrinal Statement Number 10:

10. We believe that Jesus Christ established His church, the Body of Christ, dur-

ing His ministry on earth and that it is only/always a local, visible assembly of

scripturally baptized believers in covenant relationship to carry out the Commis-

sion of the Lord Jesus Christ, and each church is an independent, self-governing

body, and no other ecclesiastical body may exercise authority over it. We believe

that Jesus Christ gave the Great Commission and the keeping of the integrity of

the two ordinances to His New Testament Churches only.

ARTICLES OF AGREEMENT RESOLUTION

Whereas Article III, Section No. 1 of the Articles of Agreement of this association

refers to one particular Church Manual, (J.M. Pendleton’s). and

Whereas there are several different, though similar, Church Manuals used by our

Churches, and

Whereas many of churches have adopted the Articles of Faith found in manuals other

than J.M. Pendleton’s

Therefore be it resolved that Article III, Section No. 1 be amended by deleting the pres-

ent Article and replacing it with the following Article, hereafter to be known as Article III,

MEMORIAL REPORT

From time immemorial men have sought for a “better country” than this fleeting, passing

life. The Bible clearly points out heaven as being that very thing — a better country, and

believers have secured title to it.

In the past association year, many have been called from among the Lord’s Churches that

are represented here today, and have entered that “better country”.

Their passing from among us has brought us closer to the realization that we too must

soon depart this walk of life and that what we are going to do for the Lord, we must be

about it.

Let us look to the future and continue to build in the faith in which they labored.

“Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, saith the Spirit, that

they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them.” (Rev. 14:13)

DOCTRINAL STATEMENTS

nally written, and that the Bible is the all sufficient rule of faith and practice. II Timothy

3:16,17.

MODERATOR’S ADDRESS

One year ago you elected to honor me once again by asking me to serve as your modera-

tor for the Co-operative Association of Missionary Baptist Churches of California in this

year of our Lord

Much has happened upon the religious scene since our last associational meeting to

indicate very clearly that sin, corruption, immorality, greed and lust have a way of finding

their way into the so called religious realm as well as in the political and business world.

Jonestown and the rapid rise of the cults are only a few of the indicators to suggest we live

in a time of rapid moral decline unlike anything faced by our forefathers.

I am reminded of a statement made by one of our well known comedians who annually

hosts a telethon for the purpose of raising several millions of dollars for Muscular Dystro-

phy. In calling attention to the remark, I mean no disrespect to this worthy cause of raising

a financial backing to search out and find a solution to this very crippling disease which

attacks mostly our young people. I thank God for those who actively work toward this goal,

and for those who give of their means to search out and destroy such a crippler.

might observe that if Missionary Baptists would place as much emphasis upon their time

and their financial support to the gospel cause as this well televised program does, the gos-

pel might have a more generous flow. The remark speak of is concerning the network of

television stations who donate much time, labor and money to show the television program

over the whole nation. Mr. Lewis refers to this network of stations as the LOVE NET-

WORK. That is well and good and probably deserves this worthy title, however I would

suggest to you today that when all of the facts are in, and time has run its course that the

only organization worthy of such a title will be the churches of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I therefore address you today as the genuine and true Love Network, the churches of

the Lord Jesus Christ, whose purpose is to convey the message of God’s Love for mankind.

The work of the churches is the one work which will endure, storing up in heaven treasure

which cannot be stolen, and where moth nor rust is able to corrupt.

In researching why we lose many of our people to the pleasures of a mad world, to the

cults which are having phenomenal growth, and to other sources I have found basically four

things which they seem to be seeking. It appears to me they are seeking for something chal-

lenging and meaningful in life. They want their life to count for something.

Young and old alike, they search for this in the churches, but because of the sub-stan-

dard of Christianity, the seemingly unconcern and indifference of many of the leaders of the

churches, Sunday school teachers, pastors and evangelists, they do not find this challenging

and meaningful life.

Our young people turn to our school system which has a sex and drug syndrome but

before long they are aware that what they are seeking is not there. Their only alternative, to

their mind, is to turn to the wild and weird cults wherein they hope to find this meaningful

life, but this unhappily is not the answer.

Men seek in life these four matters, a sense of purpose; a sense of belonging; a sense

of group identity; and a sense of total commitment to a cause.

Strange as it may seem these are the things which God seeks in the lives of the children

of God.

A sense of purpose — God has a purpose with your life. He wants you to contribute

something to this world in which we live. He wants the world to be a better place because

of you. Jesus put it this way:

“Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savor, wherewith shall it be

salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under

foot of men.” Matt.5:13

Salt is a preserver. The sanity and the moral integrity of the world is maintained by the

faithful and dedicated lives of the saints of God as they are about the business of God in the

churches of the Lord Jesus Christ. “Ye are the salt of the earth”, suggesting that because of

the churches the earth is blessed! Salt is also that which flavors, and again God’s purpose

is for the earth to be brought into a better balance because of the lives of the saints of God.

Christ also stated:

“Ye are the light of the world, a city that is set on an hill cannot be hid, neither do men

light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto

all that are in the house.”

Matt. 5:14,15.

The only true light which lighteth this world is that which is manifested in the lives of

the saints of God who live their life in the light of God’s program for him. I realize there is

much more involved in the purpose of God for all mankind, but I suggest that this a grand

purpose for the children of God who seek to make their life more meaningful.

A sense of belonging — Mankind has a desire to belong. Young people want to belong

to the various clubs available. As they grow to maturity that sense of belonging does not

decrease, but increases. The various college clubs attest to this. The Odd Fellows, Masons,

Woodmen of the world, and a hundred other clubs with the corresponding women’s orga-

nizations indicate this desire to belong lingers perhaps throughout the lifetime of a person.

God has something to fill this desire and that is the sense of belonging to the grandest fam-

ily which man can belong to, and that is the family of God. To become the children of God

having a common Father, Our Father which is in heaven, born of the Spirit of God in the

New Birth, “that is belonging”.

The desire for a group identity — God has a way to fulfill this desire. To be identified

with the family of God in the one local organization where they can find true fellowship

with God, Christ and with one another, and that is the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. It

is in this capacity they can be identified with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is

in this capacity they can be identified with the disciples of Christ. That is group identity!

The desire for a total commitment — Is this not what Christ desires for every child of

God, total commitment? Surely the answer would be yes. That is why Jesus spoke again

and again of total commitment.

“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his

cross, and follow me.” Matt. 16:24.

“If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother and wife, and children

and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.” Luke

14:26.

AGAIN — “So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he

cannot be my disciple.” Luke 14: 33.

AGAIN —”If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples” John 8:31.

Jesus taught his disciples that anything less than a total commitment to God is no com-

mitment at all. If you are not totally committed to the cause of Christ then you are not com-

mitted to God at all, your life is a sham, it is a farce, it is hypocrisy.

If there is such an organization that is truly a Love Network, then it surely must be

God’s organization which can fill these desires of mankind, a sense of purpose; a sense of

belonging; a group identity; and the possibility of total commitment to something really

worthwhile in life.

In a world rapidly becoming more and more immoral, it would appear that the cause of

Christ was having very little effect. Looking about us we might become discouraged at the

seemingly insignificant result of the labors of the Lord’s Church. When we compare from

worldly standards we might well throw up our hands in despair, but the work of the Lord is

not viewed correctly from worldly standards ... but Godly! The end result of the work of the

Lord’s churches is expressed in Rev. 5: 9, 10.

“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open

the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out

of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation and hast made us unto our God

kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.”

The end result of the work of Christ is noted in this passage

Out of every kindred, and

tongue, and people, and nation:”. How successful is the work of the churches of the Lord

Jesus Christ? If we view them from the standpoint of our local work, we might well be

distressed, but when viewed from Heaven’s throne, we find another picture.

God’s Love Network will have carried the message of the love of God from near and far,

and souls from every walk of life, from every nation, will have responded to the love of

God, having their sins washed in the blood of the Lamb.

With this great promise, let us labor faithfully in our fields of responsibilities to the best

of our abilities, that we might show that God has the answer to all of life’s little problems

and crises. Let us encourage the brethren to be consistent in their practice as well as in

their beliefs; to be knowledgeable about the Word of God, for it is the greatest safeguard to

confusion; to place Christ first and foremost in all things, and to learn the blessings of being

able to admit when you have wronged a fellow man, accepting the responsibilities for your

mistakes and learning the joy of reconciliation between brothers. Then perhaps our young

people will find the pattern they seek in the HOUSE OF GOD, and be spared the torment

encountered in our public schools, the cults, and in a pleasure mad world.
