WHY FINANCIAL BLESSINGS ARE NECESSARY...
THOSE DAYS WHEN WE DIDN’T PAY TO GO TO CHURCH SCHOOLS, RICH PEOPLE PAID FOR IT.
TODAY, PEOPLE ARE ASKING; "WE WENT TO MISSION SCHOOL FREE OF CHARGE, WHY IS THAT CHURCHES HAVE SCHOOLS THAT ARE NOT FREE TODAY?"
PEOPLE LIKE ROCKEFELLER GAVE THE MONEY TO SEND PEOPLE TO SCHOOLS SO THAT PEOPLE CAN KNOW
GOD THROUGH EDUCATION.
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER ONCE SINGLE HANDEDLY GAVE 120 MILLION DOLLARS TO HIS DENOMINATION'S (BAPTIST) EDUCATION TRUST FUND.
I HAVE THE PASSION OF HAVING ONE SCHOOL THAT IS A TOTALLY FREE SCHOOL (CHURCH SCHOOL); WHERE CHILDREN THAT CANNOT AFFORD SCHOOL FEES AND ORPHANS.
THEY WILL HAVE THE SAME LEVEL OF EDUCATION WITH ANYBODY WHO PAYS TWO MILLION TO GO TO SCHOOL.
Do you know another area where the Church impacts the world? It is education trust. You know that the topmost institution of learning in the world were church started and church founded; Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard, Yale; eight over ten of these universities. Listen to this; I went to a Catholic Primary School, went to a Methodist Secondary School. Maybe if there was a Mission University at the time we went to school, maybe we would have gone there. We went to those schools and today, people are asking; "we went to mission school free of charge, why is that churches have schools that are not free today?" It is a major issue of contention, that when the white people brought us schools, hospitals and these things, nobody paid. Church Gist. But church established schools and things today and people paid for them. There is just one major difference; we didn't pay then but somebody paid for it. They had education trust fund, John D. Rockefeller single handedly at once gave 120 million dollars in his time to his denomination's education trust fund. The journalists asked him at that time; "we heard that you gave 120 million dollars to your church education, is that not too much? He answered them and said, "God gave me the money and I am giving it back to God, what is your business?"
So, the equipment were paid for, teacher's salary was inside; everything was inside so that, Christianity can be spread and then, the voice of the Gospel can go on the wings of education and it is impossible today. If there are church people that will commit; we had a meeting early this year, our church leadership and I told them; "I still have the passion of having one school that is a totally free school, church school; where it is funded both by church and people who have the mind of God, that this school now, for example children that cannot afford school fees, orphans and those kind of people, they will have the same level of education with anybody who pay two million to go to school and it is going to be funded by people who feel called in the line of funding the Gospel through education.
The songs we learned in assembly lines in primary one, form one, form two; those songs-
🎶When we walk with the Lord, in the light of His word,
What a glory He sheds on our way🎶
All those songs are there in the subconscious; even when you struggle to miss road, the song is pulling you back:
🎶Take my life and let it be, consecrated Lord to thee🎶
The songs are there; you are a child of 11-12 years but you are chanting these songs in the assembly line every morning. Church Gist. Whether you know it or not, it is entering you and it is changing you. In our school here, the children are singing all the songs we are singing in the Church here right now and it's just entering them. That is the impact of Christian education and this impact can still happen if there are people that will trust God for massive resources and these massive resources can be channeled into probably, free education for those especially who cannot afford.
So the education of those days, we didn't pay; somebody paid for it, people paid for it. They gave money, they saw it as a missionary effort and they gave the money to send the schools out so that people can know God through education.
