For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus –1 Timothy 2:5<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It does not take long, if we spend anytime scrolling <\/strong>social media on the Internet<\/strong>, to find that mainstream churches <\/strong>are now investing time, and probably lots of money, to make their voices heard and promote their particular denomination <\/strong>on different platforms. Some are intensively promoting and explaining their dogmas to the millions online, trying to persuade people that this or that church religion, the one they promote, is the one and only that holds the truth and is able to guarantees eternal salvation <\/strong>of the soul. Most likely they try to convince people to attend their church and become a member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first problem <\/strong>with that is that the Internet goes all over the world<\/strong>, which means to countries and lands where church denominations are not present. So, if attending church, or having ceremonies and rituals where the presence of a pastor, or a priest, is required for salvation, as in some denominations, then millions of people cannot be saved for the simple reason such church denomination is not <\/strong>present in that country or territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we passed through the jungles of Africa<\/strong>, some years ago, and we saw how isolated some tribal people lived, in villages out there, we were wondering how some of these people could find salvation <\/strong>in Jesus Christ<\/strong> through a church denomination that would have to come and build a building, and have enough pastors or priests to send there to preach or minister confession, communion, baptism or other ceremonies and rituals that some church denominations deem fundamental for salvation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To this, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ<\/strong> has already prescribed, in the Book of John<\/a>, Chapter 4, verse s 23 and 24 : \u201dBut the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.<\/em>”
Wordproject <\/strong>is inspired by the Word <\/strong>to bridge that gap (‘the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.<\/em>‘ – John 6:63<\/a>) allowing the Spirit to reach every corner of the world<\/strong>. We have studied this matter extensively and in depth, during the years we did ministry in China<\/strong>. During that time, we put together a text called the House Church Vision<\/a><\/strong>, which you may read here<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In context with the above, here are a few images we just received from our brother in Africa<\/strong>, whom WP helps to support. Here he is teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ in a Muslim predominant coastal area of East Africa. We thank you<\/strong> who believe and trust <\/strong>Wordproject is a mission worthy to be supported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP outreach has increased <\/strong>again in October, as more people in many countries, big and small, are finding the Bible easy to read and listen to, in our platform. Here some records from our servers<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WP indirect outreach <\/strong>is also increasing, as more developers find our resources helpful to implement their own projects. Below are two letters received this month, concerning the use of our resources by other projects:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hi there! I'm the Localization Director at Waha.app, and I'm working on getting our Discovery Bible Study app into new languages. Someone pointed me to WordProject as a place where we could access some audio bibles for our app. I'm currently especially interested in the Somali Bible you have listed. I see that you say that many of the bibles on the site are in Public Domain, but not all of them. I was wondering if you could provide the copyright information for the Somali <\/strong>Bible you have listed. If it's not a public domain bible, we would like to pursue and negociate a license agreement to use that Bible translation and recordings in our free Bible study app. Thank you! I look forward to chatting! Blessings! JM  (A: It is Public Domain.  no need negotiations, just use what you need for God's glory) <\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Dear WordProject team, I am developing a free, non-profit, ad-free desktop application for studying the Holy Bible in Amharic. I would like to request permission to include the Amharic Bible text from WordProject in my application. The app will not generate any income, will not include ads, and will credit WordProject clearly on the \u201cAbout\u201d page. Could you please let me know if I can use the text under these terms, or if there are specific conditions I should follow? Thank you for your time and for providing such valuable resources. Kind regards, ... (later:) I\u2019ve now published the\u00a0Amharic Bible<\/strong>\u00a0app on\u00a0Flathub<\/strong>, giving full credit to WordProject both in the app and in the README. You can view the repository and project details here<\/a>: Thank you once again for your generosity and blessing in allowing this work to reach more people. Wishing you continued success and blessings,  A.W.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n

On the App front<\/strong>, the new WP app, which includes all languages on the website and more that are not available there yet. Slowly but surely in demand.  The Bible in several tribal languages from Africa is there. Download it and try it here<\/a> (Android) and here <\/a>(IOS)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
