Evangelical Missions to Non-Christian Religions

Evangelical Missions to Non-Christian Religions EMNR is a fellowship of Christian missions reaching world religions, sects, and spiritual deception. The transition was complete in February 2022.

In 1982, EMNR was formed as "a consortium of Christians in North America, seeking to help people distinguish authentic from in-authentic Christianity and strengthen evangelical Christian ministries to new religionists and cultists." The founders of EMNR adopted the Lausanne Covenant as our governing document to carry out this plea from Affirmation 7 of the Lausanne Covenant: "We urge the developme

nt of regional and functional cooperation for the furtherance of the Church's mission, for strategic planning, for mutual encouragement, and for the sharing of resources and experience." In the Fall of 2021, the board of directors voted to close down "Evangelical Ministries to New Religions" and create a new non-profit organization, "EMNR, Inc.", which is our legal name. That acronym may be expanded to "Evangelical Missions to Non-Christian Religions. EMNR will never assume a magisterial role or become a closed guild which diminishes the validity of other ministries who are not part of EMNR. Many devoted and Spirit-led Christian ministries and missionaries will never affiliate with EMNR, and in the providence of God, both our own ministries and EMNR itself will one day be drawn to a close. We pray that while we are now active in the service of Jesus Christ, we will bless and encourage our colleagues in the Gospel. As in any coalition, we expect to find believers with varying levels of competence, maturity, and experience. Some Christians have not developed the skills and knowledge necessary to present a balanced approach to this difficult field. Some of us have engaged in unjust or superficial judgments against others. On occasions some have judged presumptuously, making nonessential matters a test for Christian fellowship. Because Christians still struggle against fleshly desires and ambitions (Eph. 4:20-32), there are occasions when Christians sin against one another by attitude, tone, timing, or delivery in their attempt to correct. As a result, some have earned the label "witch hunter" or "heresy hunter." We need to be sensitive of such adjuration, and be ready to be instructed and corrected when the charges are valid.

It is sometimes difficult to know whether we live in confusing times or interesting times. Perhaps it is a little of both. But either and both often seem hard to live with.
Over the past few years, a new question has become a source of considerable cultural controversy: “What is a woman?” At first glance, that would seem to be a fairly simple question, wouldn’t it?

Tonight we will be doing Part 3 on Cults and Pseudo-Christian Groups from South Korea. This week it is “WMSCOG - the fastest-growing K-cult?” We will be doing this one slightly differently. The presenter, Mitch Cunico, will be streaming live from his channel and we will have it available on our channels shortly after that. But, if you would like to catch it live at 8:00 PM Central, catch it here https://www.youtube.com/live/oom6VBfFhL0

Some may have noticed that suddenly there are people in the evangelical church calling themselves “Spiritual Directors.” This has come about mostly in the last 10 years. Many may think this is a term for some kind of counselor or a pastoral position, but it is not. What is a Spiritual Director, and where does this term come from? It is crucial to know this.

In the late 1990s, I (Don) was asked by a professor at a local community college to teach a class on Christianity in their Religion 101 course. I agreed and spent nearly an hour explaining the Bible’s reliability and describing evidence for the existence of Jesus, His life, death, and physical resurrection. Of course, it was just an overview, as only so much can be done in an hour. At the end of my teaching, I invited questions from the students. An adventurous student raised his hand eagerly;

Over the years, we’ve had quite a number of conversations with folks who seem to think that since there are so many Christian denominations and also outside groups that claim to be Christian, this may be evidence that Christianity is not true. We disagree heartily with that reasoning. Disagreement is not evidence that proves or disproves Christianity, or any other belief, is true or not.

People may frame their question something along these lines:

How is it that each of the more significant divisions of Christianity considers all the other ones so wrong on some pretty major things? How do we reconcile Christianity being the one true religion when it is so fractured on some of the fundamentals and has sometimes rather spotty consensus on the finer points? How does one or another group ever get to a point of believing that they have it right?
