The President Emiritus

The Brethren Movement began over two hundred years ago and it is founded on the study of the Word of God. This study prompted the leaders of the movement to teach others, thus fulfilling the Great Commission of our Lord. This makes the “Brethren” distinct from others where “Teach or Perish” is our watch-word.  

Now, let’s face a reality; when looking at the present necessities and challenges in our assemblies, we don’t have enough teachers. Of course, our prayer is that our Lord will raise teachers; but someone must train them. BBI is doing its bit to train up those who have the gift of teaching. We are asked not to neglect these gifts but keep them aflame.  

We look back with thanksgiving to our Lord for His faithfulness. He has made sufficient provisions for us and these past  years have been characterised by our trust in the Lord for all our needs. We are also thankful to all of you who have been faithful in strengthening our hands in this ministry. Still, we need to expand and grow. 

We are sure that the Lord who was upholding this work hitherto in His mighty hands, will continue to do so in the coming days also. “As long as it is day,” let us work for the extension of the kingdom of God. We will do well to remember that we can invest for eternity with the material benefits that the Lord has given us. Please pray for us and join us in the ministry of  BBI and let God’s name be glorified. 

Graduates of BBI are being used by God in a special way. Do you want to be used by God in a unique way? Then BBI is a place for you to be trained.
