Spiritual gifts and ministries in global mission evangelization. The purpose of this article is to present an exegetical analysis of the spiritual gifts related to evangelism in the Bible and to propose spiritual ministries focused on global evangelism. This topic acquires great relevance in the ministry of the church in the present times, since it deepens the understanding of these gifts, so that their diligent application may contribute effectively to the fulfillment of the mission. The article addresses both the spiritual gifts of evangelism, such as speaking in tongues, interpretation of tongues, discernment of spirits, cross-cultural missionaries and sacred music, as well as spiritual ministries, including ongoing evangelism, servant glossolalia, missionary translation, doctrinal evaluation, cross-cultural and trans-ethnic connection, and musical service. In this context, the central question that arises is: What are the spiritual gifts of evangelism presented in the Bible and how should they be applied in the corresponding ministries to fulfill the mission?
Obedience to the commandments and fulfillment of mission in the Christian life: a biblical-theological analysis. This article examines in detail the place of obedience to God's commandments in Christian life, from a theological and biblical perspective. The investigation begins with a systematic review of the Bible, the theological writings on the subject of obedience as a condition for preserving life, since the creation of man. Then, after the entrance of disobedience into the perfect world, it shows God's permanent call to obedience as an expression of love, conscious and voluntary both in the Old and New Testaments and in the writings of Ellen G. White. Likewise, it reiterates some biblical characters that exemplify obedience to God's commands such as: Abraham, David, Jesus, the apostles and others who lived emphasizing obedience as an integral part of faith. Thus, it can be concluded that obedience is the only spiritual discipline that gives access to life and to the restored Eden. Also, a life of obedience to the will of God will be a strong light before men to fulfill the mission (Mt. 5:16).
Servant leadership: a biblical-theological analysis. Servant Leadership: A Biblical Theological Analysis, presents the analysis of the origin of the Servant Leadership model by Robert K. Greenleaf, who used the book The Journey to the East by Hermann Hesse to give rise to this model, which is not related with the Bible. This article analyzes the philosophy that surrounds the book The Journey to the East and the biblical foundations that were adapted to support it through the contextual and semantic analysis of the words used in the biblical texts, which, in many cases, have been used outside the context. Without diminishing the importance of Servant Leadership, this article has concluded that the service is a fundamental part of leadership, but this model does not have its biblical origin.
Transformational Leadership and its relationship to church growth and church planting in a sample of Adventists in northeastern Peru. The The study aims to examine the relationship between the dimensions of transformational leadership among leaders and the growth and church planting of Seventh-day Adventist churches in the San Martín region, Peru, during the year 2022. The research employed a descriptive approach, measuring the dimensions of transformational leadership and the numerical growth of churches. Additionally, a correlational and cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected in 2023 through surveys. The results reveal a significant and positive correlation between transformational leadership and church growth (R = 0.808; p = 0.000), as well as between transformational leadership and church planting (R = 0.701; p = 0.000). Moreover, a significant correlation was found between church growth and the planting of new congregations (R = 0.707; p = 0.000). It is concluded that the three variables are strongly interrelated, as most leaders and members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the San Martín region exhibit high levels of transformational leadership, which is closely linked to church growth and expansion. Furthermore, the study highlights the need to continue training local leadership.
