God Used Young Apostles to Accomplish His Gospel Plan in the Early Church — Zac Poonen

Young Apostles and the Church’s Global Mission

When Jesus told his disciples that they were to be his witnesses to the uttermost parts of the earth. Do you know that the oldest of those apostles were really about 33? Jesus selected everyone below 30 to be his disciple.

They were all young people and That is how the church began. On the day of Pentecost the Apostles were all below 33. There's a great need for young people in the church around the world today and in India.

There is no question that doesn't have an answer. We need to know where to find it. So we produce this DVD with 50 questions that young people often ask in relation to sex, love, marriage and in relation to many other aspects of Living the Christian life.

The Bible’s Purpose and Limits

And the answers are all from the Bible. The Bible is not a book of geography or history. So that we are not to find answers for such questions. It's not a mathematics book or a science book. We're not to look here for answers to questions concerning science and mathematics because sometimes people ask what does the Bible say about this?

Is it related to how to live a godly life? The answer is here. If you want to study about mathematics and science get a mathematics and science book. This is not the place to look for that. But if you want to be an effective servant of God, you need to know the answers to these questions that have been answered in this DVD.

Young People as Examples in Christian Character

We want to encourage you to promote God's Word by an exemplary life. I want to read to you 1 Timothy chapter 4 and verse 12. Let no one look down on your youthfulness. But rather in speech conduct love faith and purity.

Show yourself an example. Those who believe this is the one verse in the Bible which says show Yourself to be an example and it's addressed to young people. This is a challenge to us. You are to be an example to others in the way you speak in your faith in the purity of your life.

And we need many many such young people all over India and across the world. So I pray that you will be blessed as you listen to this DVD and it will change your life and make you a blessing to others.
