SCRIPTURE FOUNDATION
The following Biblical texts set out the foundation for Vision 2023 in its pursuance to possess the nations. The salvation of the nations is God’s ultimate purpose for His creation. This the Church must avail itself to.
All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations (Ps. 22:27-28).
May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine on us so that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations. May the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you rule the peoples with equity and guide the nations of the earth (Ps. 67:1-2, 4). The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: “The kingdoms of the world have become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever” (Rev. 11:15).
I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace given me through the working of his power. Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. His intent was that now, through the Church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, according to his eternal purpose that he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord (Eph. 3: 7-11).
For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete (2 Co. 10:3-6).
