Report of the Meetings Of Message Doctrine Africa 2007

Transcription

1 Report of the Meetings Of Message Doctrine Africa was a year of extensive travel as we traveled to 9 countries and one country twice. Meetings background Message Doctrine holds ministers meetings once a year in Africa; in 2002 in Uganda, 2004 in Kinshasa (Democratic Republic of Congo), 2005 in Douala (Cameroon), 2006 in Kenya (Eldoret), Kampala and Rukungiri (Uganda) and in Kigali (Rwanda). From September 04 to September 13, the team of Message Doctrine visited again Kinshasa, then Dolisie (Republic of Congo) and Mbanza-Ngungu (Congo DRC). Progress of the meetings The meetings of this year had an unprecedented success, the reason is that, on one hand, the Word became so clear that the opponents are now short of arguments and on the other hand, a great number of preachers became aware of the necessity of being faithfully taught according to the biblical pattern of II Timothy 2: 2. All delegation members, except the local team, preached in various churches Kinshasa, Dolisie and Mbanza - Ngungu during their stay. Meetings in Kinshasa Pictured above are 20 ministers who gather each month to study the Message Doctrine in Kinshasa Congo. About the delegation The team consisted of Brian Kocourek (USA), Erling Eriksen (Sweden), Marcus Janckeere (Belgium), Kees Van Klink (New Zealand), Paul McTaggart (New Zealand), Benon Caleb Arinaitwe (Uganda), Peterson of Kenya. Pastor Webster of Malawi apologized for not being able to come and join the team. Preachers from 8 different countries and from all the provinces from the D.R. Congo; listened with a constant attention to Pastor Brian Kocourek, who taught them from the 5 th to the 6 th of September 2007 in the Tabernacle de la Pierre de Faîte on the subjects as follows: The difference between God and His Son, the Faith of Jesus, the Spirit of adoption and the Manifestation of the Son of God. 1

2 Br. Brian emphasized particularly the fact that anyone who does not have the Doctrine of Christ, does not have God. He also preached on IN, showing that people are not reading their Bibles correctly, thus omitting the word IN in many quotes and scriptures which declare that God was IN Christ. Transportation between Kinshasa and Dolisie. Pastor Marcus of Belgium preached the evening of September 5 th, while nailing down on the Difference between the Appearance and Coming. The number of participants was 84 preachers. Pastor Brian tackled the same subjects as in Kinshasa, and thirst in the audience and anointing was so strong that the Word literally ran like a flood and went right into the hearts of the elect. A series of questions and answers was held at the end and there again, people were totally satisfied. The church was also edified by the testimonies of supernatural miracles God did in the ministry as Pastor Brian Kocourek prayed for the sick. At total, 70 ministers attended the meetings. Meetings in Dolisie. The team of Message Doctrine was made up of Brother Brian Kocourek, Brother Erling Eriksen, Brother Kees Van Klink, Brother Desiré Mavinga and Br. Billy Diabasenga arrived in Dolisie Friday evening September 7. We could feel how hard brothers had worked to sensitize ministers whereas brothers came from everywhere, even from Gabon to attend these meetings. Pastor Kees and Ericksen were also given the opportunity to preach in other churches in Dolisie. The team of Message doctrine left Dolisie on Monday, 10 September early in the morning and Pastor Brian had a service at Grace Tabernacle in Kinshasa in the evening and also ordained minister (Br. Bill Venga) 2

3 Meetings in Mbanza-Ngungu The team of Message Doctrine arrived in Mbanza-Ngungu Tuesday morning on September 11th and was led to a local radio/television station for a program before arriving at the meeting. There also, sensitizing was great; over 50 ministers attended the meetings. During the second day of meetings, we experienced the presence of the Lord in a most peculiar way. Several pastors were eye witnesses to a rainbow they saw come down from the heavens, and settle over the church while Pastor Kocourek was preaching. It began as a flat horizontal rainbow all colors in view. It then came down and settled over the church as a normal rainbow arch shaped. Then after some time, it changed shape into a full circle (the sun being directly centered in the rainbow.) This lasted quite long as pastor Kocourek was preaching. After the meetings were ended in Mbanza-Ngungu, the Message Doctrine team returned to Kinshasa on Thursday morning (September 13th) and Br. Eriksen and Br. Brian took their flight back in the evening. Br. Paul McTaggart and Br. Kees left on Tuesday, September 18th, Thanks Pastor Brian focused on the 8 facts of the Godhead, the Difference between God and His Son, Melchisedek, the Appearing and the Coming and on the Spirit of Adoption. A questions and answers session was organized. Three ministers were ordained to the ministry (Brother Paul McTaggart from New Zealand, Brother Billy Diabasenga and Pastor Sylvain Banunga). He encouraged the ministers to meet regularly in order to look further into the Doctrine and to keep the Fire of the Revival; even as ministers in Kinshasa meet monthly since the meetings of We infinitely thank the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for the total success of the meetings. We also express our thanks to all the brothers who contributed to the success of these meetings. Special thanks to Pastor Raphael Mbila (Host of the meetings in Kinshasa in collaboration with Pastor Mavinga), Pastor Daniel Mbouka (Host of the meetings in Dolisie), Pastor Sylvain Banunga (Host of the Meetings in Mbanza-Ngungu) as well as the brothers Bill Venga, Kiabiya Edmon, Amede, Billy Diabasenga, etc... who invested themselves in work. 3

Mario Nina traveled to Cali & Pereirra Colombia where 9 countries were represented, and 9,000 internet connections were reported. Here we taught the importance of understanding our relationship with th efather and viewing Jesus relationship with the Father as our pattern. There were 5,500 believers in attendance and 150 ministres. As a result of the introduction to the Godhead and Presence, many brethren have been studying the doctrine and are now teaching the doctrine there and abroad. The brethren have taken the doctrine to ecuador where one the doctrine was taught to 1,200 believers in October this year. Meetings in Venezuela. In December we traveled to Venezuela to address the doctrine to the ministers convention there. We spoke on the Godhead, and Presence and showed the 8 factual statements Br.

7 Meetings in Argentina. After Venezuela we traveled to Cordoba Argentina where we addressed two congregations and several ministers. The reception was very warm and the people had been well taught. Meetings in Ariquipa Peru. From Iquique we left for a 14 hour overland trip by bus to Ariquipa Peru. The trip was long but much worth the effort. One pastor traveled to Uruguay the following week to teach the doctrine there. The meetings were very successful. We met up with Br. Erling Eriksen who had been a missionary there 35 years ago. We covered the doctrine over several days of intense teaching and preaching. The reception was very good, and I believe we have established a long term relationship with the pastors of Puno and Ariquipa Peru. Meetings in Chile. From Argentina we traveled by air to Iquique Chile where we held a ministers meeting and church meetings and spoke on the radio. Ministers from Ariquipa, Puno & other locations across Southern Peru joined together for a week of studying the Message Doctrine. 7
