Beyond The Closed Doors

Do you know what a closed nation is?  There are countries in the world that severely punish their citizens for accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior.  Punishment can include excommunication from family, loss of job, destruction of personal property, monetary fines, physical assault, imprisonment, and even death.  Closed nations are those that do not allow proselytization (converting, or attempting to convert someone from one religious belief to another).  The majority of the time, the anti-proselytizing laws target Christians primarily.

This, however, is contrary to the Word of God.  Mark 13:10 says, “And the gospel must first be preached to all the nations.” 

Revelation 5:9 says, “For You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation.”

The Bible clearly gives us both the mandate, and the authority to go into every nation and preach the Gospel. 

Over the last few months, Global Infusion has sent 3 mission teams into closed nations.  We are also going to be launching a long-term missionaries family into a closed nation in 2017. 



We are committed to going beyond the closed doors built by humans, and reaching the lost.  Some who we reach are entangled in a web of lies as they follow false religions and cults.  Some, have never heard of Jesus.  Both groups need the transformational power of the Gospel to infuse their lives and their nations.


Pray for Global Infusion, our missionaries, and our teams.  We frequently go to areas in the world where the Gospel is unknown, and strong repercussions await those who make decision for Jesus.  Your support, both in prayer and in finances, allow us to reach the unreached and go beyond the closed doors.
