  • What a blessing! All glory to God! :')

  • The Gospel of Yeshua not welcome.

    

  • preaching for a foreign religion .. what a shame !!

  • This attitude that so many of you have that other religions and cultures are to be dismissed is highly offensive, not to mention this idea that you have a monopoly on the truth.

  • @dcsfanatic we are disciples of Jesus Christ, who himself declared: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man comes to the Father but through me. It is not us who declare a monopoly on truth. It is Jesus Christ the Son of God who declares himself to be the only Truth. your offense, while it may be stated towards Christians, is in truth towards Jesus himself. But it is as Jesus warned, if they hate me, they will hate you also. We offend you only because the Son of God offends you.

  • I can say I am so blessed to support this ministry...It's on the up and up and all monies go 100% to the native misionaries. God bless K P Yohannan for following the will of God to establish this ministry. They are all native missionaries and receive very little in comparison to what Western Missionaries receive, yet reach so many more people. Their hearts are totally commited to the cause of Christ..Won't you also contribute to Gospel for Asia? God will bless you abundantly for doing so.

  • GOD BLESS YOU! i also work with native missions

  • Lord Jesus commanded his followers to take his message of love and peace to every corner of word. So many people gave their lives .All praises and glory to the loving God JESUS CHRIST LORD OF LORDS CREATOR OF HEAVEN AND EARTH AND ALL THAT IS SEEN AND UNSEEN. Amen.

  • Proactive evangelical activity in recent times has lead to rapid deterioration of law and order in every corner of India, this might be a sign to stop.

  • Paruhang Mahadev Kirateswor said that he created everything. So he also created Jesus Christ. But i am wondering why these people are worshiping the creation instead of one and only Creator -->Paruhang Mahadev Kirateswor

    Finally American Native Red Indians and indigenous of the Himalayas including Nepal and other nations must stand united to fight these Christian crusader. Just like the film "Avatar" we have to fight the white man disease which is slowly destroying the peaceful native life.

  • Thanks for your concern, but I'm not sure what you mean by "white man disease." Do you realize that most Christians in the world are not white? Do you realize that Christianity first began among Jews in the Middle East? It's not any kind of crusade. People are being offered freedom and salvation through Jesus Christ. Many, like myself at one time, have had the amazing realization the Jesus died for them so that they may go to Heaven. Many are believing in Christ after witnessing miracles.

  • All I can say is, this mission to harvest souls in India is ill advised at best. Indians have their own distinct belief systems and views of their own. Are you willing to belittle the views of the natives to further your own? Even at the cost of instigating conflict? And you are preaching non violence to the very Indians who pioneered pacifism. Ever heard of Mahatma Gandhi? Study foreign civilizations and beliefs with care before jumping on the missionary bandwagon.

  • Are you aware of the hundreds of churches and Christians that were killed recently in Orissa? The Christians did not retaliate. Instead, they fled into the jungles to hide for their lives. I think that qualifies for pacifism. Why would they need to study foreign civilations? These Christians are already from Asia.

  • No Christians were killed and 17 churches were vandalised or burnt. Situation was controlled by police and paramilitary forces. Victims were all rehabilitated. The violence was in response to the assassination of a Hindu guru with a large tribal following who discouraged Christian conversions. 'The Christians did not retaliate'- Oh yes they did, several Hindu temples were burnt in the district a week after the attack. Not to mention that they started it by killing Swami Lakshmanananda.

  • Are you sure you want to be that specific and have that level of certainty when a lot of the violence occurred in rural India in a state of millions of people? All the reports I saw put the numbers much higher. The Swami was killed by Maoist rebels who even claimed credit for it.

  • @AboutMissions

    Different news channels have different figures, but the scale of the violence just wasn't that high.

    Maoists are pro church in India, partly because of similar social composition(Dalits). Though they are ideologically different, they have collaborated against Brahmin minorities and influential Hindus before. Indian Maoists are opportunistic, pay them and they'll kill Mao for you. What ideological reason do you think Maoists may have to attacks Hindus and never attack Christians?

  • 'Why would they need to study foreign civilations?'- because religion is a by product of civilization. Christianity symbolises western/roman values, propogated by the Roman catholic church(protestants happened much later). Islam symbolises Arabic values and culture, when someone converts to Islam, he/she dresses different, eats different, talks different and acts different. Hindu is an identity today not because of some religion, but because of shared civilization and history.

  • @parthsna

    Actually , Christianity is cultureless. It does have a sense of culture , but not Roman culture. The new testaments have no foundation for culture , except for a few Jewish cultural ideas from the old Testament.

    Civilization is the product of religion , not the other way around.

  • @AboutMissions

    Look mate, I have nothing against Christians. My girlfriend is the president of the Catholic Society! Most of my Christian friends too know about these 'missions' in India and they are against it. There has never been any Hindu-Christian violence in India for the last 2 millennia, ever since Saint Thomas set foot in India. Only in the last one and a half decades do you see such stuff. Don't you think this might be due to the new methods adopted by over zealous missionaries?

  • @parthsna

    I read your comment and wanted you to know that this ministry, Gospel for Asia supports nothing but native missionaries to work all over Asia. I am priviledged to be a supporter of this great work of God. No one tries to change another's culture as this is their culture working among their very own.

  • @parthsna since the day that Paul stepped into Ephesus and upset the beliefs and views of both the Jews and those who worshipped Diana, the gospel of God, wherever it is preached, has been and will be a source of conflict for those who reject his gospel. Those who do so are ready to lay down their lives to the hope of the calling that is Jesus Christ. It is a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense to the unbelieving, but the power of God unto eternal life to them that believe.

  • @parthsna

    i disagree with what your'e sayng but no space here to go into it all

    i encourage you to look at the person of Jesus and consider His teachings and claims about Himself. Try reading the Gospel of John at biblegateway (google it at click on first site)

    God bless you

  • @parthsna My understanding of the word pacifism is opposition to war or violence of any kind. This man is only presenting ideas, not using force or violence to make converts. Where is the tolerance for this native man rights? Should he or any other person be in fear because they posses a different view point. Maybe, the question should be why any person should not have the right to free religious expression.

  • To judge what words should be silenced on peoples reactions would be a grievous error. History is a good example of many ideas once deemed as inflammatory. For example, slavery, or women's right to vote. Should, this man stop speaking if some of his fellow countrymen are inflamed by new ideas? Where would the world be today, if all men were required to practice this philosophic?

  • I feel so ashamed of my Christian walk after seeing this...

  • Thanks for posting this video. My family and our extended family are not buying Christmas presents for the adults this year. We are going to buy chickens, goats, etc...to help the Dalit, as seen on GFA's website. We are also going to give to Voice of the Martyrs to help those being persecuted for following Christ.

  • Thanks so much for your support!

  • What a wonderful idea! This really will teach your children how to not store up treasures here but in heaven! God Bless!!

  • God Bless those who are willing to risk their lives to tell others about the Love of Christ. No matter what non-believers think , this is what our Lord has directed us to do. Christians don't force people to convert to Christianity - it's of their own FREE will. We don't threaten to kill them or kill their families if they don't convert - we only offer love.

  • this is a challenge to all of us "Believers" to seek God on His calling in our individual lives on how we can do our part in the collectivist or group work together in the "Great Co-Mission" (Matthew 28)

  • It is our Lord Jesus's command for every Christians to go into the world and preach the good news(Gospel) to the world. This young brother has taken this task which involves so much perils and dangers . But he is doing it for Jesus, and with a smile. It is a duty of every Christian to tell to others about Jesus. Some people like this brother do this in spite of death threat-because the protection of Lord Jesus is with them.

  • I am so thankful people are paying attention to this video. It's vital. Thank you! Nina

  • Every tribe that has been assaulted with Christianity has been destroyed.

    Their families broken, their language outlawed, American dress codes imposed,

    guilt and shame imposed, their children sexually abused,

    their men stripped of dignity and authority, their cultural heirlooms stolen or destroyed as "idols",

    their health destroyed by sugar and alcohol and western diet...

    For the sake of humanity, leave them alone!

  • thanks for your comment, but you're so wrong about so much of this. One example: The Waodani of Peru. 60% of adult deaths were due to homicide. They were killing their own people, their own neighbors. They killed the first 3 missionaries that went to them. Later, the tribe accepted Christianity. Now homicide has ceased. They are peaceful. Also, I don't think you watched this video, because there are no foreign missionaries. They are all native and simply sharing their faith with their own ppl.

  • there has been "wrong" doings of Christians in the past (e.g. what happened to the Native Indians in America) and will continue; however, God will deal with "them" in Judgment Day. I became a Christian in 1999 and feel disgusted about the "past history" of the "Church". There are more "good" than "bad" stories that we hear or taught in "mainstream" history class. What it boils down to is are you going to refuse Christ just because of this mistakes of his "so-called" followers"?

  • God, thats horrible, Im kinda of a christian of sorts, But i hate the christian leaders sending brainwashed misionaries to poor countries to take away THEIR CULTURE AND RELIGION, Different people have different culture, but christians cant get a hold of that...

  • thanks for the comment. Actually, if you paid attention, you would see that these missionaries are not being sent to "poor countries", they are from the poor countries. They are native missionaries. A new culture is not being introduced. Actually, half of these missionaries used to be of those local religions, but they became Christian and just want to share that with their neighbors. Is there a problem with giving someone the option of becoming Christian?

  • Not really, Im not talking about these guys, no i didnt watch the video, i copied and pasted my comment from another video about actual rich asshole christians, that are white, going to poor countries and giving them food, if they convert.

  • ooh, yeah, that would be bad then, if that's really how they're doing it.

  • Its mostly in Africa with all the nieve minds

  • NOT all Christians are White-it's a beautiful "multi-colored" family. However, I don't blame you for this comment because of what the "media" covers. Feel free to reply or contact me and I would love to help you see a "BIGGER" picture then what the "mainstream" media covers on Christians

  • I truly don't believe in the bible, theres too many things that don't make sense, And is not possible.

  • You don't understand...they don't "convert" people to grow their own little pet religion, to make their group bigger, to improve their own standing.

    When you've found the truth, you want to tell people, not so you can look good, but so that they can know the truth, too. Christ is the Truth, and when people find Him, they love other people and what them to know true joy and peace, too. They'll face poverty, disease, and even death in order to tell others. That's not hate, that's love.

  • typo -- should be "...want them to know...."

  • I think you guys are horrible, you can't just help people you have to convert people also ... guess nothing is free in life right? I feel you are just spreading religious hate saying Muslims, hinds or what ever are no good.

  • This is where I have a problem with the Christian and Muslim religions. Why do you think India and the rest of the Asian world need your evangelism? Could it be because the "Holy Lands" are the true and pure representative of what the Christian and Muslim "message" will do for the locals? Yeah, it's worked a real miracle in Palestine...where was Jesus from? Yeah, Palestine. Think again...India does not need your insanity or your supposed message of God..keep your delusion away from India!

  • Well, Christianity has existed in India nearly 2 millenia already. Aren't those Christians allowed to tell others who are interested about their faith? It comes down to freedom of religion. Shouldn't people be allowed to decide what religion they want to be?

  • Nothing wrong with preaching your faith, I guess... I just think it's sad that it's the uneducated, downtrodden, and hopefully gulible masses that you target... I think it is slightly unfair in that they don't get the same exposure to other worldviews as they should be able to when missionaries get to them, no matter where the missionaries are from.

  • whats difference about this relegion?

  • Well, in a short answer, it's that Jesus Christ came to this world to live a perfect life and die on a cross as a sacrifice for us - for you and me. When He was alive, He fulfilled prophecy, spoke about amazing eternal truth, did miracles, and even rose from the grave Himself. He did all this to show us the way to Heaven. In His death, He suffered for our sins, so that we could be forgiven and be with God in Heaven. God still shows Himself to be real today, and all can find salvation in Him.

  • GospelForAsia is an incredible organization. I've been a supporter of them for a long time and I strongly recommend people visit their website and ask for the free book. I've heard so many accounts of healings happening over there, and like the man said, that is often times how conversions take place. Unfortunately there is also heavy persecution going on, but as sad as that is, it does have the benefit of keeping them from becoming lazy like we are here in the west. Thank you for posting this!
