A Global Blessing or an impossible Wildly Important Goal?

The movie, The Bible, introduction on the cable TV History Channel set records, with more than 10,000,000 viewers of each two hour segment of the ten hour series between Valentines Day and on Easter, 2013.

The movie was produced and directed by a young couple who was intent upon delivering the Message in a graphic and compelling format delivered in accord with the best translations of the earliest texts of the books in the Bible.

Viewers ranged from devout Christians to the curious.  Does the outcome portend an even more significant goal?

What if each book in the Holy Bible was delivered in a similar tele-virtual manner, using the same conceptual ethics, vision, mission and goals -- perhaps even the same key actors -- with the viewing time as necessary for delivery of the content?

What if each of these productions, starting with the movie, The Bible, was available for any and all to freely view using the Internet, any where and any time, without any effort to identify or inhibit the viewing?

What if the English used in the audio script original production of the movie, The Bible, and the subsequent productions of each book in the Holy Bible, were translated and dubbed over each of the languages used around the globe?

What if the project was kept free of any denominational and secular bias in accord with the original vision and mission of the translators that led to the production of the New International Version of the Holy Bible?

What if the primary funding was provided by a cooperative agreement of ALL of the qualified members of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability® (ECFA.org) by applying 10% of their cash and liquid reserves?

What if this content was delivered in accord with the demonstrated commitment of an easy to remember and use Internet domain, http://cTc.tv?

What if this is not a wildly impossible goal, but became a reality?

What would happen if each person who reads this message were to simply pray, "Lord, if this is your will to be done on earth, then please let it be done!"

May the full blessings and amazing Grace of the Lord our God be with each and every one who reads this message.

P. S. WHY DO THIS?

About seven billion (7,000,000,000) people are now living on earth.  About half of these people are functionally or totally illiterate -- they cannot read.  But most all can see and communicate in the language they learned as a child.  

Historically, many who learned to read learned by being taught by those seeking to develop awareness of a religion.  Christian missionaries since the time of the life of Jesus Christ have been significant teachers for those who want to overcome their illiteracy.   This has involved considerable amounts of time, money and energy at the personal level for thousands of individuals.

But now, for many who are illiterate, television, the Internet and mobile communications devices have become their audio-visual link to learning.  On line and wireless Audio-Video delivery technology and products have many trade names, encircle the earth, and the content ranges from good to evil.  Now it can be used to present the visual message of God's love for all people -- The Bible -- in many languages.

The messages in the old Testament foretelling of the life of Jesus Christ, the Gospel in the New Testament recording the eye witness accounts of his life, death, resurrection and ascension into Heaven, and the messages about the first spreading of the Word, all recorded in the Holy Bible have been condensed into The Bible, the ten hour, five part movie series, produced by Mark Burnett and Roma Downey of Lightworkers Media.

Now, finally, those who are functionally or totally illiterate can have the opportunity to privately satisfy their curiosity, and start to learn about the love of God for them without having to learn to read first. 

Glory be to the Lord for His Word and Inspiration.  Join me in praying that if this wildly important goal is the will of our Lord, that it becomes a reality.  His Kingdom transcends all political and geographic boundaries here on earth, and He has revealed a powerful way to reach all who seek to learn the message of His Word and Love.
