The Gospel Overshadowed | Egypt | Look to the Field

About this sermon

Egypt was a Christian nation for centuries. Today, Islam is the national religion. Many obstacles stand in the way of gospel ministry: Biblical Christians are labeled infidels and heretics, public evangelism is forbidden, and those who preach against Islam are imprisoned. Pray with us for the gospel to take deep roots in Egypt, for its people to remember and turn to the Lord, and for His church to be nourished by the Word as a tree firmly planted by living water. *How to Pray for Egypt:* 1) Pray that the Lord would raise up pastors who are devoted to the word and to prayer, who boldly preach the whole scripture. 2) Pray that believers would mature in their faith through the knowledge of Christ. 3) Pray for those in authority, that the laws oppressing the church would be reformed. 4) Pray that believers would be emboldened by the gospel to be living sacrifices to God. -------------------- *Chapters:* 00:00 – Introduction 01:08 – The Gospel Overshadowed 02:54 – The Danger of Theological Compromise 03:32 – The Faithful Remnant 04:22 – Starvation for the Word 05:32 – How to Pray for Egypt -------------------- *Look to the Field* is an episodic series designed to present the spiritual condition of specific countries and regions, highlighting both the challenges to gospel work and the need for prayer.
