Revolution in World Missions Was Actually a Revolution in My Mind and Heart READERS RESPOND . Revolution in World Missions was actually a revolution in my mind and heart. —Marysabel M., Montreal, Canada I’ve read Revolution in World Missions several times. Just like the message of salvation, the book never grows old. —Elizabeth K., Queens Village, New York I started reading it and could not put it down. It was like part two of the book of Acts. —Gareth W., Staffordshire, England I just read Revolution in World Missions. The Holy Spirit has led me today to stop just going to church but to BE the church! —Susan S., Altoona, Iowa Revolution in World Missions made me realize that the difference between poor and rich people is not just a fairy tale, something we see only in movies. This discovery broke my heart. —Thelma P., Debrecen, Hungary I was caught up in the book. It made me study and pray more often and harder. —David S., Jacksonville, Illinois Revolution in World Missions spoke volumes to me. My budget was/is filled with things that have no eternal value. God con- victed my heart! —Pastor Rudi B., Western Cape, South Africa I am convinced, having served 20 years as a pastor and in other church ministries, that this is the way missions is supposed to be done! —Pastor Samuel M., Bluff City, Tennessee I can tell you that this reading literally blew my mind. It is as- tonishing to see what God is doing in Asia. I am so excited to be part of this. —Armando R., Panama City, Panama I was a Christian who mainly believed that God no longer worked in the same way He did in the book of Acts. When I read Revolution in World Missions I realized I was dead wrong. —James B., Nacogdoches, Texas I read Revolution in World Missions, and I could feel the Lord working in me with every page I read. I felt my heart open to the Lord in a new way and His desires being planted in me. —Alba S., Toronto, Canada I was born and raised a missionary kid in Tokyo, Japan, and Revolution in World Missions changed my whole perspective. —Penelope W., Troy, Missouri I gave Revolution in World Missions to my parents to read, and it has generated a lot of interest within our church. Respectfully I request a replacement copy of the book so that I can re-read it. —Anthony F., Goolwa, South Australia WHAT INTERNATIONAL CHriSTIAN LEADERS SAY . There are many that talk a good message, but not too many who actually live it out. GFA has what it takes to penetrate the 10/40 Window. —Dr. Luis Bush, International Facilitator of Transform World Connections GFA has become one of the more significant pioneer mission- ary agencies, with a good accountability structure. They are doing an excellent job. —Patrick Johnstone, Author Emeritus of Operation World GFA is not a movement, but a phenomenon. GFA has become one of the most significant mission organizations of this century. —Dr. George Verwer, Founder and former International Director of Operation Mobilization K.P. Yohannan leads one of the largest, if not the largest mis- sionary movement, working across Southeast Asia to bring the love of Christ to the most unreached. The impact of GFA’s ministry in Asia is very significant. —Dr. Joseph D’Souza, Executive Director of Operation Mobilization India Revolution in World Missions is one of the great classics of Christian literature. It is essential reading for those who desire to obey the mission of Jesus Christ. We get so used to apathetic and halfhearted ideas about missions . and then K.P.’s book turns our world upside down! —Rev. Dr. Paul Blackham, CEO of Biblical Frameworks, London You need to read Revolution in World Missions. For a guy in our generation to be speaking these words—I don’t know that any- one else is saying them as clearly as he is. It’s a ministry that I not only endorse, but it’s the model of how I want to continue in ministry for the rest of my life. —Pastor Francis Chan, Author of Crazy Love My guess is that few realize the extraordinary breadth and depth of the ministry outreach of GFA. When I journeyed to South Asia, I was astonished at GFA’s amazing outreach and witness for Christ. —Dr. Frank Wright, President and CEO of D. James Kennedy Ministries We are very particular when it comes to partnering with other ministries. But we don’t have any hesitation when it comes to GFA. —Ray Comfort, CEO of Living Waters and Co-Host of The Way of the Master “Let my heart be broken with the things that break the heart of God.” —Bob Pierce1 a division of gospel for asia www.gfa.org Revolution in World Missions © 1986, 1989, 1992, 1998, 2002, 2004, 2017 By K.P.

We don’t Wknow why exactly—perhaps we have met too many who pursued visions but whose personal lives were nightmares. The first time we remember meeting K.P. Yohannan we brought him home for dinner, and our family dragged this slight Indian along with us to a high school gymnasium to sit through an American rite of passage—an all-school spaghetti supper. Across the paper tablecloth, the garlic bread and the centerpieces—shellacked lunch sacks filled with an assortment of dried weeds and pasta (created by members of the Mains family!)—we heard of a dream to share the love of Christ not only with India but all of Asia. Since that evening in the noisy gymnasium in West Chicago, Illinois, there have been many more shared experiences—phone calls from Dallas; trips to the cities and backwaters of India; pastors’ conferences in open thatched-roofed, bamboo-sided pa- vilions; laughter; travel on Two-Thirds World roads; and times of prayer. Very simply said, we have come to believe in K.P. And we believe in his plan for evangelization that, with the profundity of simplicity, bypasses the complexity of technology and challenges Asians to give up their lives to win their fellow countrymen to Christ. Revolution in World Missions This book,Revolution in World Missions, reveals one of God’s master plans to reach the world before the end of time. With absolute confidence we know we can endorse the integrity of its author, a man of God, and we are thrilled with the work of GFA. You can read knowing that those evangelists traveling into the unreached villages of Asia have more heart, more fervor, more passion to spread the Good News than most of us who are surrounded by the comforts and conveniences of our Western world.

Chapter 2: Roots in the United States and Some Significant Successes in Asia Chapter 3: Parameters of the Situation in Sri Lanka Chapter 4: Parameters of the Situation in Nepal Chapter 5: The Activities of Christian Evangelical Groups, and the Possibility of Conflict and Violence in South Asia? Bibliography CHAPTER 1: Introduction: Evangelism or Fundamentalism? Religion has been a major component in routine life in South Asia for a considerable period of time.Similarly, it has also been a major player in politics and conflict formation as well as a source for mass mobilization for socio-culturally and politically motivated millenarian or revivalist movements in the region. In India, a sense of distrust between Hindus and Muslims has become steadily institutionalized since the partition. The primaryreason for the creation of Bangladesh and Pakistan had been the religious differences between the populations in these areas and what constitutes India today.In Sri Lanka, Hinduism and Buddhism are primary markers in the cultural and ethnic identities of Sinhalas and Tamils.Such differences in identities play a major role in perpetuating the on going ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka, particularly due to the manner in which such identities areperceived and represented in popular belief and conservative academic discourse.While the mere differences in cultural identities were not the cause of the inter-ethnic conflict in Sri Lanka, the religious differences between the two groups have been manifestly used by nationalistand chauvinist politicians among both groups for sectarian purposes.

    Learning to Pray “The potency of prayer hath subdued the strength of fire; it hath bridled the rage of lions, hushed anarchy to rest, extinguished wars, appeased the elements, expelled the demons, burst the chains of death, expanded the gates of heaven, assuaged dis- eases, repelled frauds, rescued cities from destruction, stayed the sun in its course, and arrested the progress of the thunderbolt. Prayer is all-efficient panoply, a treasure undiminished, a mine which is never exhausted, a sky unobscured by clouds, a heaven unruffled by storm.

    [AJPS 8:1 (2005), pp. 67-94] CRITIQUE OF PENTECOSTAL MISSION BY A FRIENDLY EVANGELICAL Roger E. Hedlund 1. Introduction In the conclusion of his 1997 revision of his study of the Pentecostal-Charismatic movements, Vinson Synan states, “Christian affairs of the twenty-first century may be largely in the hands of surging Pentecostal churches in the Third World and a Roman Catholicism inspired and revivified by the charismatic renewal.” 1 Hollenweger likewise indicates that Pentecostalism today is centered outside the West in a growing Third World movement.2 Indeed Pentecostalism during the twentieth century has emerged from the status of a marginalized sect to become a major tradition of Christianity. With 193 million (19.3 crores) members in 1990, the Pentecostals were the largest Protestant group of churches in the world.3 In addition to these denominational Pentecostals, if one includes mainline Charismatic Protestants and Catholics, the total is more than 372 million (37 crores) which is 21.4 percent of the world’s Christians.4 Also in 1990, out of an estimated 4 million (40 lakh) full-time Christian workers, 1.1 million (11 lakh) were Pentecostal-Charismatics.5 “Fully 1 Vinson Synan, The Holiness-Pentecostal Tradition: Charismatic Movements in the Twentieth Century (Grand Rapids/Cambridge: Eerdmans, 1997), p. 298. 2 Walter J.
