The Action Report
Religion isn't Enough; The Power of Relationship
By Frank Eiklor and the Shalom Team

“Is this what it’s like to be lost?!  So dark! Darker than any night! Darkness I can feel with my fingers. Clammy! Clinging! Chilling!”

 

But at least I knew there was an escape. The same miners who took me deep into a Chilean mine would guide me out. I had preached to them in southern Chile, and they let me experience the dangers they faced daily. First they clothed me in heavy miners garb, gloves and helmet with a light. Once we were deep in the bowels of the earth, my guide said “Turn off your light.” He was a true follower of Jesus, and he knew I was about to experience something that would feed my burden for the souls of men. He was right.

 

How horrifying it must be to hear “I never knew you. Depart from me, you that work iniquity.” And then to be thrown into outer darkness where there is no escape. No light. No hope. Lost! That’s why you must—you just MUST—pray for me and our “MORE THAN TALK” telecast to over 150 countries on the Internet. I feel Paul’s charge to Timothy “Preach the Word—keep your sense of urgency” (2 Timothy 4:2 Amplified).

 

We’re not just reaching men of other religions or no religion. What about the millions of “Christians” in name only who have

never experienced Jesus?

 

I just had a pastor friend, Tom Hughes, join me for four telecasts. God made us a powerful team. We spoke on the Cross and that sin is no game.

 

To be “very saved” you have to realize you’re “very lost.”

 

And we emphasized one word missing from much modern preaching—REPENTANCE—and that God’s grace is not cheap but very costly. What it means to be born twice. To have the resurrected Jesus turn us into new creations that think, speak and act different from the world. All four telecasts closed with a prayer of commitment. Now the Lord of the harvest has gone to work—all around the world. That’s why your prayers and material support are so vital.

 

You are a part of everything God does—every life that is changed—through this telecast.

 

To God be the glory, and to you be my thanks!
