The indigenous Christian churches in the Democratic Republic of the Congo are becoming more serious about Evangelism, reaching the unreached and building the Body of Christ in the DRC! Will the traumatized Christians in the DRC reach the fullness in Christ to be an agent for righteousness, peace and a sustained Gospel of Good News in and from Africa? Can this be done if global Christianity continue to be absent from Kisangani and the eastern DRC? Lest sponsored rebellions continue to frighten the Christians and the sons of Abraham remain in conflict instead of focusing upon God’s prophetic purposes!
Only the Christian faith proclaims a loving God that forgives sin and offers a way back to Him. Missions from any other faith groups do not have a legitimate Great Commission or the Gospel of Good News! Is it not time that the Church of Truth returns to the eastern DR Congo?
Will the global Christian Church convince Africa of an apolitical, Gospel stance and true focus upon righteousness and peace? If not the Christian Church, who then will bring righteousness and peace to the eastern DR Congo? While the unclean become even more unclean the righteous should be exceeding in diligence and truth! Christian Missions need to be followed up and followed through. Not discarded so that the indigenous church becomes a club-like society, steeped in syncretism while subsequent generations or remote societies remain unreached.
Brothers and sisters of the global Christian church. Since 1959 many had called for peace in the war torn eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. More recently those who appealed for peace were the Pope, the Roman Catholic Church and ECC (Church of Christ) leaders in the region, the AU, UN, MONUSCO, President DJ Trump of the USA … yet rebellion (as witchcraft according to the Bible book of Samuel) persists with the resultant murder, displacement, upheaval, disrupted agriculture and brutal exploitation of blood soaked “rare earths”. The land calls out for the blood of humans and saints alike. What must the international Christian community do as one to help bring righteousness and peace to eastern DRC? Better conflict mineral negotiations. More humane practices. Leaders of integrity? Respect for negotiated and committed agreements? Must we fast and pray globally that God would send the Angel that killed 185 000 Assyrians outside the walls of Jerusalem (ref. the Bible Books of 2 Kings, Isaiah and 2 Chronicles) to kill 185 000 rebels, rebel leaders, instigators, brutal exploiters and greedy international puppet masters overnight? Or must the Global Church wake up, don the Full Armour and Full Gospel of God and come to Kisangani, Goma and Bukavu to minister righteousness and preach salvation through the Grace of Jesus Christ, the peace of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit in eastern Congo?
How will the eastern DR Congo be gained for Christ if the Christian Church is increasingly absent since the Simba Rebellion in Kisangani (1959 to 1964)? While economic hit men, bribery, corruption, murder, exploitation, poverty, hunger and displacement rule the eastern DRC, the churches in Africa, Europe and the West look away. Congolese themselves are keeping “outsiders” of goodwill away, while welcoming wealthy agents of iniquity who bring bad news under the guise of prosperity, empty promises and decline. Why not rather take everlasting insurance by welcoming disciples who bear Good News and who edify societies?
Well done to all Christians, Pastors and Evangelists who are dedicated to evangelism in and from Kisangani! Perhaps, soon, isolated villages will become accessible for the Good News, despite the fog of war and rebellion around conflict minerals (blood soaked “rare earths”)?
The suggestion for a Christian Embassy had been put forward in Kisangani during the Congo River Mission review during 2014 and 2025. The reasoning is as follows: firstly that peace is not possible in the eastern DR Congo without the presence of the global church to support the indigenous churches of the Congo. Secondly it would save cost and promote expediency for international Christian churches, ministries and missions if a shared space can be established under the Christian flag. An open space work area is more affordable than separate mission stations. Please comment.
Dearest Missions Minded Friends in the Global Christian Church,
Time is moving along. More and more of Matthew 24 manifest daily.
There are still people groups or remote areas where the Good News had not reached.
Conflict Mineral wars, global greed for cheap (blood bought?) technology and brutality scars the landscape of certain regions in Africa.
How can the eastern DR Congo experience peace and righteousness if the global Christian church, ministries and missions are held at arms length (while South Africa, for example) crawls with Congolese “Pastors”?
The world is resetting! UN Agenda (20)30 remains a secular and controlling objective! Yet the Church is complacent. Christians often seemingly comatose?
What or where is the problem?
What is the foreseeable consequence if we as Christians (in Southern- and sub-Saharan Africa) remain complacent? We have to re mobilize and re-activate full gospel, full armour, Great Commission obedient churches in, from and around South Africa! Why is South Africa of importance? Because South Africa contains a remnant of the Christian Church in Europe and the great Reformers! Andrew Murray and his vision for an “Africa for Christ”.
The group of Coltan mines near Rubaya Town in eastern DR Congo, also known as the Bibatama Mining Concession, “employs” about 3 500 local Congolese people. Children are also noticeable in the digs. M23 “rebels” or internationally sponsored go-betweens and paid, trained and equipped agents of war to do violence to communities to maintain fear and compliance, ensure that Coltan is mined as cheaply as possible 24/7 365, to satisfy global demand in the manufacture of the latest high tech medical equipment, control systems, smarter than smart phones, surveillance equipment and instruments of brutal warfare. Global church denomination headquarters and Christians could not cope in a post-modern world if not for blood bought conflict minerals and blood stained high tech. The Church in Kisangani at this stage fears “rebels” more than it fears God. Efforts to re-establish international church, ministry and missions cooperation in Kisangani had failed. The refurbished (international?) airport in Kisangani remains closed for business and tourism visitors, import and export and Christian missions logistics since 2021. The Church, it is submitted, sees no evil, hears no evil but by the Great Omission, does evil!
The is a lot of talk going on in Africa at this time. Missionaries are bad! Jesus was black! The Bible is abused! Is it just noise or a true awakening? A real Revival? A search for truth? Or is it corruption trying to mend corruption? Please, let us pray for the Church, the fruit, righteousness and peace in Africa.
