Eradicate Bible poverty by translating the Bible to nearly 1 Billion people who don't have it in their own language.
Receiving the baton
|
With God's will, illuminations movement in the United States has succeeded in the initially daunting mission to bring God's word to every tribe and every nation. The last mile of that mission is now in Asia as we receive the baton.
The Gospel message is built on the ultimate gift: God's own Son. IlumiNations Asia exists because of that stunning generosity. And it exists so that all may come t know, through the language they understand best, the gift of eternal life God has made available to them. The unprecedented unity driving the Bible translation movement 10 collaborating agencies (and growing) committed to eradicating Bible poverty - is accelerating the timeline by which all people groups will have Scripture in their heart language. |

The task is great:
Over 1300 people groups in Asia suffer in Bible poverty with little or no Scripture in their language
The need is urgent:
Romans 10:14 asks, "But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him?" (NLT)
The vision is God-sized:
By 2033, 95 percent of the people in the world will have access to a full Bible; 99.9 percent will have access to the full New Testament; and 100 percent will have access to at least some portion of Scripture.
And the challenge is ours:
We have the opportunity to be stunningly generous. We have the opportunity to be the generation that sees Scripture available in every living language.
The essence of the Gospel is generosity. We pray along with you that God will make clear the role to which He is calling you... so every tribe and nation has the Gospel in their heart language.
