"Christ's method alone will give true success in reaching the people." We must reactivate the Galilee Protocol!

Carrying the bed on the Sabbath would cause an uproar. But the people needed to know! The invalid at Bethesda wasn't healed by the normal healthcare of the day—This was a divine work!—And the people needed to know!.

Jesus caused an educational crisis, a ministerial crisis, and a medical crisis—In the church, in the nation, and in the world. We will too.

God sent a storm to get His own unfaithful servant to do city missionary work...
Read moreThe Galilee Protocol mission is to work using Christ Method Alone: presenting a balanced demonstration of His character to the largest cities in America—through self-sacrificing service and clear, bold warnings from the fourth angel. Our vision is to use the cities of America as a stage upon which to ignite a glorious display of Christ's righteousness so as to set the global context for the last conflict in the great controversy between Christ and Satan.
They may be individuals, small groups, congregations, multi-congregational groups, or school groups. Here the Deliverables are simply activities to recruit and train Adventists for involvement in domestic medical missionary work.
They may be individuals, families, small community groups, or even who cities. Here the Deliverables are missionary activities for reaching people with Christ's final warning message.
Think history stories of an allegorical nature—or modern-day stand-ins for parables. These are special because everybody loves a story. This is a focused use of stories from the Bible or history to pull out important apocalyptic points relevant for today. It is amazing how many Bible stories have built-in end-time symbolism.
Ever consider street evangelism? Here we capitalize on very brief encounters with people just to spark their interest in following up with us at a seminar or study event. In this area we can get creative—especially with the help of schools and youth groups.
These are city centers. Usually simple rented properties where there is room enough to hold seminars and equipped to do cooking and hydrotherapy demonstrations. They have rooms where simple treatments can be done; and they serve as resource centers for both medical missionaries and those for whom they are laboring. Ideally these are under the direction of a local chapter of the Galilee Protocol Medical Missionary Association.
Door-to-door work is absolutely vital to seeking and saving the lost. Yes, sometimes intimidating, but it can also be fun and rewarding. The emphasis is on ways to engage people who are open to what we have to share concerning health and the gospel.
These are country outposts. Re-purposed farms or some land suitable for a rapid-deployment base camp: these are for training and treatment facilities. They are equipped much like the city centers but designed to accommodate people who need to stay for a while. They incorporate gardening programs, are able to accommodate training, tent-meetings and camping. Ideally these are owned by one or more local chapters of the Galilee Protocol Medical Missionary Association.
1Educational. The protocol's Educational Element involves the training of Christ's disciples for their work of ministry using the Galilee Protocol. Simple and short courses of study together with field training are used to quickly prepare students of all ages to enter the work.
2Ministerial. The protocol's Ministerial Element is the one that reaches out to the public with the gospel message. It requires that the message "sound forth with earnest words of warning... We must persuade men everywhere to repent and flee from the wrath to come."
3Medical. The protocol's Medical Element involves the right arm of the gospel work. It follows basic hygienic health principles and techniques to constantly point people to Christ—His love, and His healing power. "Health is the result of the obedience to law." We do not heal; God does."
1City-Centric. Christ said that He was sent to preach to the cities. We will see that this is our work too.
2Missionarial. Christ worked as a missionary, sacrificing everything for humanity. This is how we must work too.
3Provocative. Christ's work and message demanded attention. Today the world's attention must be captured by His disciples.
4Advocative. Christ made it very clear that He was an advocate for man. We must present Christ as the sinner's only hope.
5Representative. Christ is longing for the manifestation of Himself in His church. There must be a revival of primitive godliness!
6Organized. "Diligent work is now called for... In all our city work, we must hunt for souls. Wise plans are to be laid, in order that such a work may be done to the best possible advantage."
Every attempt is being made to keep the Galilee Protocol program as modular as possible and to keep the training cost to an absolute minimum. This is so that it can grow quickly and so that every interested person can be involved regardless of their personal circumstances. When a Field Expedition occurs we simply assemble the various modules (with those who are available to work them) into a well-organized missionary event.
