ELI Asia’s 10th Anniversary
10 years is an achievement, a milestone indeed but one that is not possible without the grace of God. Developing biblical leaders for the local church is far from a simple walk in the park. Challenges are found at every corner but in every situation, we face, God has always been there to meet us. To provide for our needs, to strengthen our leaders, to equip our growing faculty and to bring us students who will also teach what they learned to their local congregations. We have been blessed in numbers as we continue to grow but the biggest blessing is the privilege of bringing the gospel to the local…

ELI Asia cannot fully equip a local church if its leaders are not supportive of what it does, “to develop biblical leaders for the local church.” That’s why we are truly blessed that God has added another to our growing family.

Time is unbelievably fast. It seems only yesterday we entered 2021 and now the year is almost over. Yet despite that, work in the ministry has never been this fulfilling.

THE EASTERN LIGHTNING CULT BEGINNINGS, BELIEFS, AND BUILDUP by Rara Aguja
The Eastern Lightning Cult is a new religious movement founded by Zhao Weishan.1 This quasi-Christian group centers in the end-time revelation of the female Christ and submission to her words penned in The Word Appears in Flesh, their sacred literature.2 Well-funded, highly organized, and discreetly tactical, this group has gained millions of followers in Mainland China and began to expand beyond the country’s borders. Its doomsday message and rapid recruitment ploy coupled with threats, deceptions, and violence have raised an alarm not just towards Chinese government but also to international media. The underground evangelical church, its main target, issues updates through its website, describing the devastations its spying members have…

God is faithful won’t you agree?
Thank you po, I didn’t know that my views are not biblical, ang dami ko pong natutunan. Those are priceless words. No matter how tired a teacher of the Word may be, at the end of the day, these words will surely remind him to keep going. We need to remember that people don’t naturally desire to grow in the knowledge of God, even more so to spend time diligently studying the Bible. We are just simply too busy with our lives that time spent communing with God has been viewed by most professing Christians as an extracurricular activity. If you say you are a follower of Christ and have…

Testimony Wednesdays | Sis. Mickey N. Alcain
I thank the Lord for bringing Eli Asia to our local church. Everytime I attend sessions from hermeneutics courses to theology surveys, every topic instantly becomes my favorite because I get fresh knowledge of who God is. And even when Covid 19 came and the pandemic kept us glued within the four corners of our homes, Eli Asia continued their agenda of equipping believers via virtual class. I am grateful and humbled by the fact that the teachers accumulated all this wisdom and knowledge from studying the Scriptures, and we get to benefit or reap from what they have sown and worked hard for, by the grace of God. All…
