SteemChurch: Alliance with the International Gideons
Greetings men and women of the Church of Steem!
An ancient prophet said:
For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.
Habakkuk 2:14
The birth of our Lord Jesus Christ gave humanity a 360 degree turn, dividing history into a "before and after".
He was the fulfillment of the prophecies and the ultimate revelation of the omnipotent God.
After fulfilling his mission, he gave the preaching order to his disciples to take his word to the whole earth, starting from Jerusalem.
This knowledge has been expanding throughout the earth!
Today at SteemChurch, we want to honor the international Gideons for their great distribution of the Bible on almost the entire planet.
Despite innumerable attacks on Christianity and the sacred scriptures, the gates of hell have not been able to prevail against the body of Christ, His church.
"Today 800 million Bibles or New Testaments in 72 languages are distributed on the surface of the globe, each year there are more than 45 million copies offered, which means that every second a Bible or a New Testament has been distributed in Some part of the world for the Gideons."
Who are the Gideons?
The International Association of the Gideons is composed of lay people, executives, and members of liberal professions, who occupy positions of responsibility, recognize Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord and believe that the Bible is the true Word of God.
The Gideons do not form a church and less a sect, but as an association they cooperate with all churches or denominations faithful to the Bible.
The New Testaments in French, English and Spanish are placed in the rooms of hotels, motels and other public places, as well as in waiting rooms for doctors and dentists. New Testaments are placed in hospitals and clinics within the reach of each bed. A special edition is offered to the students of the schools, to the students, to the soldiers, to the personnel of the medical body and to the prisoners of the jails. They often reach those who do not usually go to the churches and who could not be touched in any other way by the Word of God.
SteemChurch will be supported by the Gideons
Today we were some important links with various characters, for the management and distribution of biblical copies through the church of Steem, in hospitals, schools, prisons, hotels, etc.
Mr. Orlando Guerra is one of the executives of the Gideons Association, in charge of the eastern part of Venezuela, and was very happy to support SteemChurch, with the free donation of biblical copies.

We also met with the Executive Director of Social Welfare, Mr. Juan Cova, and Elvin Cedeño, of the Christian Church: The Good Shepherd, who play roles of social contribution and involve in their activities, medicine and food for the needy.
Soon we will meet again to finalize, some important agreements.
(Juan cova, @lorennys and @emiliocabrera)
In an old book there was an anecdote of the Meeting of an African Prince and the Queen of England.
The Prince of Africa asked, what is the secret of the greatness of England?
Queen Elizabeth, taking the Bible in her hand, kindly answered: This is the secret of the greatness of England.
We give thanks to God for the Gideons and their memorable work in the Crusade for Freedom!
We greet @sirknight and all the dear Parishioners of Steemchurch!
This is wonderful news Your Grace. One can not help but feel that momentum is building in the SteemChurch and in the love for Christ.

I understand dear gniksivart! I mean the two testaments, thank you very much.
Very well brothers, I knew that God would open doors to get this support with the Gideons, many people do not have enough money to buy a Bible, but these copies are very useful and practical to take anywhere. God bless these new covenants.
We are happy for the acceptance of the people when we speak to them and we teach them all the great struggles that steemchurch has undertaken in a year since its foundation. God bless the representatives of the Gideons for their kindness and support. God keep blessing steemchurch.
Actually steemchurch is coming to many places that will be known all over the world. Congratulations for this great alliance, expand the Bible here freely when there are many places where it is forbidden.
Oh, my God! This must be celebrated, concrete actions, transparency and responsibility are the friends of the Gideons association.
God bless his holy word, wherever a copy of this is, the word be sown in hearts, God bless Steemchurch for this incredible impulse. I'll wait for you at the school where I work. Hugs
A great example of Leadership, credibility and trust @lorennys and @emiliocabrera are giving here in the Church. Many blessings for these associations with the incredible Gideons
