Believe in the Lord Jesus and You Will Be Saved

A portion of the training with the East Asia Orient staff included a review of Paul’s missionary journeys through the book of Acts and the follow up in his NT letters.  As I prepared and taught through Acts 16 again, the Lord brought a wave of thankfulness to my heart, once again, as I considered the truth, “Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved” from Acts 16:30-31.

Some of you know that verse stands at the gate to Turkey Hill Ranch Bible Camp so it has special meaning to me.  The Father spoke to me in a fresh way to say that this direct statement was true for the people at Philippi.  It is true for the campers at Turkey Hill.  And, it is true for people from every nation, tongue and tribe—including the countries of East Asia Orient.  This is our message—that we are saved by believing in Jesus.  I wanted to share these verses with you in the languages that were represented at the training.  We'll start with the brief section from English.  (Each of these pictures was taken from the Bibles of the Campus Crusade for Christ staff members from these countries.)
