The Reason For A Website - Essentials Truths In Simple Format For The Next Generation Beginners On Internet

The Internet is the learning platform of the new generation. It will shape their thinking and outlook. It will is the first place they will search for truth.
BrethrenPortal provides essential biblical truths about New Testament Christianity available in a simple format suited for beginners.
The quality resources may be used for self study and as an alternative to full time seminary education or distance learning.

Purpose Of BrethrenPortal Ministry

Provide resources to equip young Christians and local Churches to plant New Testament Model Churches in all unreached places and nations.

We Combat Book Famine

Most homes in many parts of the world like Africa do not have access to good books nor can they afford them. This crisis is called 'book famine'. Resources in BrethrenPortal can be reproduced intact and provided to them, or accessed through Internet where available.

We Have Great Burden For The Next Generation

The next generation has to be equipped to uphold and advance biblical faith. They have to keep us ahead in missions. They have to impact the world in their generation. They have to be convinced to put God and His cause above everything else in their lives including career and secular pursuits. They have to alter the course and history of unreached nations.

We take a Fundamentalist, Calvinistic, Dispensational, Pre-Tribulational, Pre-Millennial, Cessationist, and Non-Charismatic stand.
