Isaiah 58:12 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

Before bringing you the specifics, the objective, the key tasks and all of that, it is our duty as a married ministry couple of over thirty years to share with you the very passion, the very heart of what God has called us to do and it is one word, RESTORATION     – to bring the conditions for real New Testament Church throughout the World from having a “Home Front” Mission based in Bedfordshire to “Perfecting the Saints” for the work of the ministry all over the World with a College based in the land of the Covenanters in South West Scotland, and associate Colleges based in Sri Lanka & the Punjab in India.

Acts 1:8 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

My dad and Lindsay’s dad in law William Griffiths is featured on our College logo. In the 1930’s he cycled up to the Keswick Convention responding to the Overseas Missions Call. Previous to this Rees Howells had been to South West Scotland to Anwoth and witnessing a copy of the Solemn League and Covenant knew God had called him to bring about a College, that would “perfect the saints for the work of the ministry.” He did not give heed as to whether or not a student could afford fees, neither was he concerned for the College to be accepted by the Establishment. His preference was to build students up in the Word of God, preaching “recklessly” as my dad did on the worldwide mission field, the training bringing the “perfecting” required for successful evangelism.

Mark 16:15 Authorized (King James) Version

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world,

and preach the gospel to every creature.

       Ephesians 4:11-12 Authorized (King James) Version

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Having little in the way of finances, dad attended the Bible College of Wales in Swansea, being perfected in the Word and learning fluent Portuguese, a practical skill essential in those days to reach out to those in Cape Verde and what was then Portuguese Guinea, now Guinea Bissau. The heart of our ministry and the heart of the ministry of Rees Howells was in the deepest intercession to the Father in the Name of Jesus. This heart is illustrated by a letter sent to my dad by his sister Tessie from Liverpool in 1936, this too is our heart today!

 In the 1930’s saints commonly gave up their lives for the benefit of others. In a world that is falling apart we believe Christ Jesus is the only answer, this remains our heart. Will you help us continue this vision in line with our God given seven year plan that can be studied at https://www.ecctv.org/7-year-business-plan

 

OUR ONE OBJECTIVE: To prophetically, led by the Spirit of God, reach every creature with the Gospel - 5 Key Tasks

 

1)          To restore and rebuild movements & bring them back to the vision & original calls of their founders

 

Isaiah 58:11-12 King James Version (KJV)

And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.

 

2)          To expose the false groups that have taken movements into the realm of higher criticism & the Emerging Church

 

Jeremiah 1:10 King James Version (KJV)

See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

 

3)          To impact nations with the Prophetic Word of God

 

Genesis 17:5-7 King James Version (KJV)

 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

 

Galatians 3:25-29 King James Version (KJV)

 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

 

4)           Perfecting the saints for the work of the ministry

 

Ephesians 4:11-12 King James Version (KJV)

 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

 

5)          Reach Every Creature through global media & mission

 

Mark 16:15-20 King James Version (KJV)

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

 

So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

 

ALL IN LINE WITH THE SEVEN YEAR PLAN given of the Lord Jesus in 2015

MAIN STAGES – Further details at https://www.ecctv.org/7-year-business-plan

​

Our Current Projects ……..

​

  1. Antioch Christian Resource Bureau, 23-27 George Street, Whithorn, Wigtownshire, DG8 8NS. From here we livestream our programmes and have our offices. We send out Biblical Materials all over the World that can be witnessed at https://www.thebiblecollegeofwales.org/the-college

 

By carefully examining this “out of the box” website you will witness the very heart and vision of this College, a College that has resisted the call to critical study, rather embracing revelation from God, with a faculty highly trained, but more importantly open to God.

 

  1. The Sri Lanka Mission House, Mount Carmel Theological College, Bellwood, near Kandy, Sri Lanka. Here Suresh Ramachandran who has worked with us now for 20 years set up as led of the Lord a College perfecting saints often from poor backgrounds into ministry. https://www.mount-carmel.net/college-ministry/

 

In the grounds we have already started this operational mission house but funds are still required to clear bills. It is a mission house to reach out to the world. We have the technical skills at Bellwood, the practical help to set up from the house a media mission to reach the world. We are achieving this and love for you to be a part of this great move of God.

10 MISSION HOUSE 1.jpg

Samuel Rees Howells preached a message called “Praying the Prayers of the Impossible” and this is written all over this mission, a mission house to be equipped with the latest media facilities to multi livestream as well as produce the highest quality TV output for satellite television. Why are we doing this here? Well, the mission house is built in the grounds of Mount Carmel College that houses students and faculty that are experts in media output, so this mission house is crucial to complete if we are to reach “every creature with the Gospel”.

 

As an added bonus, it is a place where saints from all over the world can come and be part of this great move of God, to be in a very anointed atmosphere that already is reaching all across the world. Once completed the mission house will have high quality accommodation facilities, in the mountains of Sri Lanka where the climate is much cooler than sea level, so in comfort saints can be perfected for the work of  the ministry. We invite you to be a part of this. We are praising the Lord!

12 MISSION HOUSE 3.jpg

Our Future Projects ……..

​

  1. Worldwide Mission House Colleges……. We firmly believe the Sri Lanka Mission House to be a prototype of mission houses all over the world properly equipped with media facilities to “reach every creature”. Samuel Rees Howells talked about “praying the prayers of the impossible” and in a world full of fear at this time, it is vital we reach everyone with the life giving Word of God, a passion so great in us that we are prepared to put our own lives on the line to fulfil this call.

 

In praying these prayers God has given the ministry Brian Mason, trained under Samuel Rees Howells who all over the world has interceded and prayed these impossible prayers to fulfil the aim.

During the Sri Lankan Civil War we took this to the Lord entering the Northern warzone when it looked impossible to do so, even a Hospital administrator bringing us into his hospital to bring the Name of Jesus higher than the war wounds so many were suffering with. We witnessed miracle after miracle with our team, even one young man receiving eyes before a whole congregation in Jesus’ Name. It is vital we “perfect saints” for the work of the ministry all over the world, we just need the resources to fulfil this call.

 

Ephesians 4:11-12 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

 

Mark 16:15-18 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; 18 they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

​

John 15:13 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

​

2. To Bring the body of Christ Jesus together recognizing the God given gifts of the many members – knowing God’s heart is to bring this together. Our College at Whithorn is a College of team workers, working together to fulfil the seven-year plan, but we are under resourced and understaffed. We believe God however has this in hand and will provide both requirements in these final two years of the plan. We believe his coming is imminent and there is an urgent call going out by his Spirit to bring the body together to fulfil his Biblical plan of redemption.

 

We do ask for your help in this in yes, financial resourcing, but more importantly in your prayer, your intercession, your heart in manifesting the compassion of Christ Jesus towards mankind, such compassion that took him to the Cross as the only begotten Son of God so that all mankind could be saved.

 

John 3:16 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

​

3.  Developing the International Ministry, bringing on board affiliated colleges that throughout the world fulfil the Ephesians 4 and Mark 16 Commission.

13 DRC MINISTERS.jpg

This work is so important, our faculty being well qualified to assist, Lindsay having taught classics in the best-known schools in Britain including Gordonstoun and the Queen’s School, Chester.

​

In addition, we have the abilities on our faculty of Suresh, Brian and me bringing a wide range of qualifications, experiences and most important the revelations of God into the equation of bringing about effective ministries of our Lord Jesus.

​

1)    Restoring the Heritage:

​

Proverbs 22:28 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

28 Remove not the ancient landmark,
which thy fathers have set.

 

Zechariah 1:18-21 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

18 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns. 19 And I said unto the angel that talked with me, What be these? And he answered me, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem. 20 And the Lord shewed me four carpenters. 21 Then said I, What come these to do? And he spake, saying, These are the horns which have scattered Judah, so that no man did lift up his head: but these are come to fray them, to cast out the horns of the Gentiles, which lifted up their horn over the land of Judah to scatter it.

 

In looking to the objective of restoring the modern landmark of our nation which undoubtedly is the Elizabethan Settlement, a settlement that embraces the very heart of our Coronation Oath, the Monarch on oath to uphold the Christian Gospel, we see that the very Coronation Service itself is based on the Coronation of King Solomon.

It is therefore correct and accurate to look to the Old Testament example as to when apostasy and discord came to Israel, the Bible declaring “four horns.”

​

Something has brought discord to our nation, as indeed discord came about in Israel, and it is our heart to bring what we passionately believe to be these “horns” to the fore.

JOHN WESLEY 2.jpg
  1. The Spirit of Intellectualism, Humanism and Pride in Man’s Achievements.

 

This sees everything in black and white, reasoning everything to a logical conclusion, man being the superior being and the mind as the source of all knowledge.

 

John Wesley, Founder of the Methodist Movement:  The devil has given to the Church a substitute for faith which looks and sounds so much like faith some people can't tell the difference = MENTAL ASSENT.

Within this understanding there is a development of an over-stressed society for man is incapable of finding out truth which only comes through Jesus Christ and so the Bible College of Wales – the Original Vision holds out a hand to an over stressed society to receive freedom through the blood of our Precious Saviour.

​

2.  The Spirit of Anti-Christ

 

1 John 4:3 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

3 and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

​

We live in a questioning society that is denying Biblical truth replacing this truth with a series of ideologies, these ideologies coming in and going out, the recent science advices differing from one scientist to another. Our heart is to restore the never changing Word of God to the Nation, described in the Coronation Service as the “lively oracles of God”, we believe this being the only way to restore the nation’s stability.

​

3.  The Spirit of Immorality

 

Within the present social conditions this spirit has been having a hey–day in a society needing to return to its honour of God and his ways.

 

Galatians 5:19-21 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

​

Our focus is not on suppression but on the liberty in Christ Jesus without honouring the lusts of mankind, but instead looking higher, walking the higher plane being one in Christ Jesus.

 

Isaiah 61:1 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me;
because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek;
he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

​

4.  The Spirit of Lust or Materialism

​

1 Timothy 6:9-10 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

​

With the global pandemic, the security zone of man has become very fragile, Jesus calling us to look above rather than build up treasures on earth. By addressing these “four horns”, we present to the nation a perspective that has not been brought to the fore, for many years

​

It is in the areas of sexual lust, love of money and intellectualism that families are being destroyed, and even today there are those in the “Church” who are discouraged with the conditions that have been brought about through the activities of the four “horns”.

​

We do believe we have found the solution, the solution being the shouting from the rooftops the freedom there is in Christ Jesus, away from the vagrancies of the “god of this world”. We ask for your support.

​

Zechariah 4:6-7 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. 7 Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

 

2 Corinthians 3:17 Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
