Statement of Faith [ Back to top ]
Harvest Evangelism uses the following to communicate its faith:
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and is infallible and authoritative in the original writings.
We believe in one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious death and atonement through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that the salvation of lost and sinful man is only achieved through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit of God.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by Whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
We believe in the forgiveness of sin, the bodily resurrection of the believer, and life eternal.
We believe in the spiritual unity of the Church, which is the Body of Christ, composed of all who are regenerated through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
In its nineteen-year history, the Lord has allowed Harvest Evangelism to develop a method, based on the biblical principles of unity, reconciliation, and prayer, for reaching entire cities for Christ. The first city was Resistencia, Argentina, where the implementation of these principles produced much growth in church attendance during the three-year period of time from 1988 to 1991. Since that time, Church growth in Resistencia has increased greatly, and a significant change in the spiritual climate of the city has occurred. Other cities, such as San Nicolas and Mar del Plata in Argentina are also beginning to see similar breakthroughs.
In August of 1994, Ed Silvoso's book, That None Should Perish, which spells out in detail the principles behind the prototype, was published by Regal Books. Today, by God's grace, thousands of pastors and lay people in hundreds of congregations are influencing cities around the world through prayer evangelism. Harvest Evangelism's U.S. staff are positioned to help guide city-wide efforts such as "Pray Twin Cities" (Minneapolis/St. Paul), "Pray Yuba-Sutter" (Counties, in No. California), and "Pray South Bay" (San Jose, California area) and service emerging prayer evangelism projects in cities around the world from Hong Kong to South America to the United Kingdom.
Each and all of the Harvest Evangelism ministries are dedicated to the task of reaching the population centers of the world for the cause of Christ. As in the beginning, the team remains committed to serve the entire Body of Christ by praying to the Lord of the harvest for more laborers (Matt. 9:38) and equipping those laborers already on the field (Eph. 4:12) until the Great Commission is fulfilled.
