ELI Asia Newsletter Q1 2024
“The training of a local church leader involves various elements to equip individuals for their role. This includes engaging in in-depth biblical studies to gain a strong foundation in scriptures. Leaders also delve into theological principles and beliefs through the study of doctrine. Skills such as hermeneutics and exegesis enable leaders to accurately interpret and understand the Bible. Local church leader training also includes learning the principles of Christian ministry, including pastoral care, church administration, leadership, discipleship, evangelism, worship, and practical aspects of serving a congregation effectively.” – Pastor Nicky Joya Are You Looking for Biblical Equipping? Evangelical Leadership Institute Asia seeks to enable Christian leaders to acquire theological and…

ELI Asia Newsletter Yearend 2023
Dr. Hans F. Bayer, Professor of New Testament at Thirdmill talked about how the Holy Spirit empowered the ministry of the Gospel. He said: “As the apostles advanced the mission of the church, their work on the frontiers of the kingdom was consistently confirmed by dramatic outpourings of the Holy Spirit. Through the Spirit’s power, the Gospel spread unhindered from Jerusalem to Judea, and Samaria and to the ends of the earth. Even today, the power of the Holy Spirit is the only means by which the church can be transformed and effectively spread the Gospel, we too must seek to depend on the Spirit’s power if we are to…

ELI Asia Newsletter 2023
God is good. God is faithful even when we’re not. God is sovereign in good and in bad. ELI Asia as a teaching organization is never immune to trials and testing. The truth is that because of its desire to equip and teach local pastors and leaders to become biblically sound, its leaders and teaching faculty are often tested for their faithfulness to do the work entrusted to them by no less than God. God gives the desire to teach and this gives ELI Asia, a faculty composed of learned pastors who strive to endure and persevere to be able to teach the local church and various campuses. As God…

ELI Asia | Year in Review
2022 has been a busy year for ELI Asia. God has enabled us to continue His work of teaching pastors and lay leaders. You see, the purpose of ELI Asia is to develop biblical leaders for the local churches, our priority are those in the provinces. To bring biblical and affordable theological studies to Pastors who are already on the field but do not have the means, the resources, and the time to send themselves to seminary. But God in His goodness has blessed us this year with two more campuses in Metro Manila. We pray that the Lord will help us grow numerically but more important than that, we…

ELI Asia Newsletter | May-August 2022 | Issue 02
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. Community Bible Church of Marikina is a church that desires for their members’ true spiritual growth, one that can be achieved by providing them with biblical equipping. We praise the Lord for the privilege to partner with them. As its initial offering, the campus will conduct Hermeneutics. Our ministry of providing affordable ministerial and theological training to pastors and lay leaders are made possible by the financial support of…

ELI Asia Newsletter | Issue 02|2021
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. Maybe we didn’t feel the time passing because we’ve all committed ourselves to growing in knowledge, learning the Word of God in-depth, and teaching others about what we learned. 2021 for ELI Asia is nothing short of a victory. This year has been so fruitful and the campuses have been busy, desiring to learn continuously. Our campus in Sta. Rosa, the EZRA Institute of Theology was able to complete Hermeneutics, Old Testament Surveys 2 and 3 and have just finished…

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…
