Many Languages, Peoples & Nations

The Sovereign Grace Emerging Nations team is currently relating to over seventy-five churches in thirty-eight different countries around the world, representing many different nations and cultures. It brings to mind the picture in Rev 6.9 of a “great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb!” What a day that will be!

Yet even ahead of that day, as we continue to give out the invites around the Globe to this great marriage supper of the Lamb, we’re having to grow in our use of different languages. Many nations and tribes don’t speak English at all, and so in a keen desire to reach them and serve them well, back in March of this year, we began to translate our website, along with the Statement of Faith and our Seven Shared Values, into various different languages, reflective of where we have the most work going on around the world.

These websites really serve as a window for people unfamiliar with Sovereign Grace churches to peer in and learn about Sovereign Grace, as well as a way for pastors and churches in all the corners of the world to get connected with us. So far we’ve translated our materials into Spanish, Portuguese, Croatian, Italian & Turkish, with another 8 languages still to come.

Take a look, and rejoice that God is calling people from all tribes and peoples and languages to come to Him. How kind He is, that we get to play our part in this great endeavour.
