La visión es siempre desafiante, emocionante e inspiradora. Pero, por mucho que una visión atraiga la fuerza de las personas, con el tiempo, se vuelve una rutina. Lo extraordinario para muchos se vuelve para quienes lo viven en ordinario.&lt;br /&gt;Bajo tales condiciones, lo único que es capaz de sostener la visión es la Palabra de Dios. Ella es el alimento espiritual que sostiene a los cristianos en pos de sus ideales. Las emociones humanas son siempre variables. Precisamente las emociones son tales porque varían de un día a otro. Pero, para una visión se necesita un esfuerzo sostenido que se extiende por encima de los estados anímicos.&lt;br /&gt;Eso solamente lo puede lograr la Palabra de Dios. Esa es la diferencia entre aquellos que tuvieron grandes visiones y luego las perdieron, y aquellos que las tienen y las sostienen hasta cumplirlas. No basta, entonces, con ser un gran visionario, se necesita ser también un conocedor de la Palabra de Dios. &lt;br /&gt;La diferencia entre una visión que se marchita y otra que se hace realidad es la capacidad del hombre de Dios para alimentarla con la Palabra de Dios. Las personas no pueden vivir solamente de emociones, necesitan ser alimentados con la enseñanza constante de la Biblia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Word of God as what sustains the vision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The vision has the ability to capture people. The vision is always challenging, exciting and inspiring. But, no matter how much the vision captures the people´s strength, over time it becomes a routine. The extraordinary for many, becomes ordinary for those who live it. &lt;br /&gt;Under such conditions, the only thing that is capable of sustaining the vision is the Word of God. It is the spiritual food that sustains Christians in pursuit of their ideals. Human emotions are always varying. They are precisely emotions because they vary from day to day. But a vision requires a sustained effort extending over mood changes.&lt;br /&gt;That can only be accomplished by the Word of God. That's the difference between those who had great visions and then lost them, and those who have them and hold them until they are fulfilled. So, it is not enough to be a great visionary, you also need to be a connoisseur of the Word of God.&lt;br /&gt;The difference between a vision that withers and another one that comes true is the ability of the man of God to feed it with the Word of God. People cannot live on emotions alone they need to be nourished with the constant teaching of the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하나님의 말씀이 비전을 지탱케 한다&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;비전은 사람들을 붙잡는 능력이 있다. 비전은 언제나 도전적이고, 흥분케 하며, 영감을 불어넣어 준다. 하지만, 비전이 사람들을 붙잡는 힘이 얼마나 대단하든 간에, 시간이 가면서 판에 박힌 일상이 된다. 많은 사람들에게 비범한 것들이 그들에게 평범한 것으로 변한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이러한 조건 하에서, 비전을 지탱시킬 수 있는 유일한 것은 하나님의 말씀이다. 그리스도인의 이상을 추구함에 있어서 그들을 떠받쳐 주는 것은 영적 음식이다. 인간의 감정은 항상 오르락내리락한다. 날마다 수시로 변하기 때문에 그것들은 감정들이다. 하지만 비전은 수도없이 변하는 분위기를 잘 잡아줄 지속적인 수고가 요구된다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하나님의 말씀에 의해서만이 그것을 성취할 수 있다. 처음에는 크나큰 비전을 가지고 있었지만 점차 그것을 잃어버린 자들과 크나큰 비전을 가지고 성취할 때까지 계속 그 비전을 붙들고 있는 자들 사이에 차이점이 있다. 그래서, 크나큰 비전가가 되는 것만으로는 충분치 못하다. 당신은 또한 하나님 말씀의 감식가(감정가)가 될 필요가 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;시들어버리는 비전과 현실이 되는 비전 사이의 차이는 하나님 말씀으로 그 비전을 먹이는 하나님의 사람이 가지는 힘이다. 사람들은 감정만으로는 살 수 없다. 그들은 성경에 대한 지속적인 가르침으로 양육되어질 필요가 있다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7940148224567752080?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7940148224567752080/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7940148224567752080' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7940148224567752080'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7940148224567752080'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2012/01/la-palabra-de-dios-como-sosten-de-la.html' title='LA PALABRA DE DIOS COMO SOSTÉN DE LA VISIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1336273096104571567</id><published>2012-01-19T05:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-19T05:18:32.120-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA VISIÓN DE UNA GRAN IGLESIA</title><content type='html'>El pastor David Cho había iniciado una iglesia que había alcanzado sus primeros 18,000 miembros. Corea comenzaba a levantarse de las cenizas de la guerra y la ciudad comenzaba a ser reconstruida. A pesar que el pastor Cho tenía ya una iglesia numerosa en un edificio prefabricado que le había sido donado por misioneros estadounidenses, él tenía una visión de futuro.&lt;br /&gt;Decidió trasladar la iglesia a la isla de Yoido, en ese tiempo sin ningún puente. Durante la guerra, Yoido había sido un aeropuerto utilizado por el ejército estadounidense pero, ya para entonces, abandonado.&lt;br /&gt;La isla no tenían ningún atractivo al punto que se la ofrecieron toda en venta. No obstante, Cho no tenía el dinero suficiente y solamente compró una sección que es la que posee hasta el presente. Cho pudo visualizar que la isla se convertiría en el futuro en el centro de la ciudad. Al comprar la propiedad, muy pocas personas de su congregación creyeron en tal visión. La prueba quedo plasmada en las fotografías que se tomaron durante el culto de dedicación de la nueva propiedad: no había más de 150 personas.&lt;br /&gt;No obstante, Cho no dudó en entregar la iglesia de 18,000 miembros y comenzar una nueva en la isla de Yoido. Allí, edificó la iglesia documentada más grande del cristianismo. Personas claves confiaron en su liderazgo y en su visión. Un hombre con una visión siempre llega muy lejos. &lt;br /&gt;En la actualidad, nadie que vaya a Seúl pude pasar desapercibida la iglesia de Cho. El Congreso de la república se encuentra a una calle y del otro lado del río Ham son dos las estructuras que sobresalen: la cúpula del Congreso y la cúpula de la iglesia. Esa fue la visión para Cho. La nuestra será diferente. La verdadera clave es tener una. Entonces, las ovejas nos seguirán.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The vision of a great church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Pastor Cho had started a church that had reached already its 18,000 members. Korea was beginning to rise from the ashes of the war and the city was initiating its reconstruction. Even though pastor Cho had at that moment a numerous church in a prefabricated building which had been donated by American missionaries, he had a vision for the future.&lt;br /&gt;He decided to move the church to Yoido Island, which didn’t have a bridge at that time. Yoido had been an airport used by the American army during the war, but it had been abandoned by then.&lt;br /&gt;The island had nothing appealing to the point that they offered him the entire island for sale. However, Cho didn´t have enough money and bought only one section of it which is the part he possesses at present time. Cho could visualize that the island would become the center of the city in the future. Very few people from his congregation believed in such a vision when he purchased the property. Proof of this remains captured in the pictures that were taken during the new property’s dedication service: there were no more than 150 people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nevertheless, Cho didn´t hesitate to give up an 18,000 member’s church and start a new one in Yoido Island. There he built the largest documented church of Christianity. Key people trusted his leadership and vision. A man with a vision always gets very far.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, anyone who goes to Seoul can´t miss Cho’s church. The Republic’s Congress is one street away and at the other side of River Ham there are two protruding structures: the dome of the Congress and the dome of the church. That was Cho’s vision. Ours will be different. The real key is to have one. Then the sheep will follow us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;A Visão de uma Grande Igreja.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Cho iniciou uma igreja que havia alcançado 18,000 membros quando a Coreia estava começando a se reerguer das cinzas da guerra. Naquela época Seul estava iniciando sua reconstrução. Apesar de Pastor Cho ter tido uma igreja grande num edifício pré-fabricado (doado por missionários americanos), ele teve uma visão muito maior para o futuro. Ele decidiu mudar a igreja para Yoido Island, uma ilha que ainda não tinha uma ponte naquela época. Yoido havia sido um aeroporto usado pelas forças armadas americanas durante a guerra, mas havia sido abandonado desde então.&lt;br /&gt;A ilha não tinha nada de atrativo, então o governo a ofereceu para Cho comprá-la. Entretanto, Cho não tinha dinheiro suficiente e comprou apenas uma parte da ilha, a qual é a parte que ele possui no presente momento. Cho podia visualizar que a ilha se tornaria o centro da cidade no futuro. Pouquíssimas pessoas de sua congregação acreditavam na visão de Cho quando ele adquiriu a propriedade. Prova diso é vista nas fotos que foram tiradas durante a celebração de consagração da nova propriedade: havia menos de 150 pessoas presentes!&lt;br /&gt;Contudo, Cho não hesitou em desistir de uma igreja de 18,000 membros e começar uma nova em Yoido Island. Lá, ele construiu a maior igreja do Cristianismo já documentada. Agradecidamente, seu povo chave acreditou em sua liderança e visão. O ponto de partida é que um homem com uma visão lidera o caminho, ainda que os outros não vejam tão claramente.&lt;br /&gt;Hoje, qualquer um que vá a Seul não pode deixar de visitar a igreja de Cho. O Congresso da República é vizinho da sua igreja e quando se olha para o outro lado do rio Hahn, qualquer um vê duas estruturas salientes: a cúpula do Congresso e a cúpula da Igreja.&lt;br /&gt;Cho teve uma visão, você terá outra. A chave real é ter uma. Então, as ovelhas te seguirão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;훌륭한 교회의 비전&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;조용기 목사님은 대한민국이 전쟁의 잿더미에서 재기를 시작하고 있었을 때 18,000명에 이르는 교회를 시작하였다. 그 당시에 서울은 재건축이 시작되고 있었다. 심지어 조용기 목사님도 조립식 건물에서(미국 선교사들에 의해서 기부된) 대형교회로 있었지만, 그는 미래를 위한 더 큰 비전을 가지고 있었다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;그는 교회를 여의도로 옮기기로 결정하였다. 그 당시에는 다리가 없었다. 여의도는 전쟁 중에 미군에 의해서 공항으로 사용되었었다. 하지만 그 후에는 폐기되어 있었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;섬은 그래서 매력 전혀 없었다. 그래서 정부는 섬을 조용기 목사님에게 팔기로 제안하였다. 조용기 목사님은 충분한 돈을 가지고 있지 못했다. 그래서 섬의 일부만을 구매하였다. 이것이 현재까지 소유하고 있는 부분이다. 조용기 목사님은 섬이 미래에는 서울 도시의 중심이 되리라는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 그의 회중 중 매우 소수만이 부동산을 구매할 당시에 조용기 목사님의 비전을 믿었다. 새로운 부동산에서 헌신 예배를 드리는 사진에서 그 증거를 찾아볼 수 있다: 참석자는 150명도 안 되었다!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;그럼에도 불구하고, 조용기 목사님은 포기하는 것을 주저하지 않고 여의도에서 새교회를 시작하였다. 기독교 역사상 가장 큰 교회를 거기서 세우게 되었다. 감사하게도, 그의 핵심 인물들이 그의 리더십과 비전을 신뢰하였다. 마지노선은 비전을 가진 자가 길을 인도한다는 것이다, 심지어 다른 사람들이 그만큼 분명하게 보지 못할 때조차도.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;오늘날, 서울을 방문한 자는 누구나 조용기 목사님의 교회를 놓치지 않을 것이다. 국회의사당이 그의 교회 옆에 자리잡고 있다. 한강 건너편에서 바라보게 되면, 두 개의 거대한 구조물을 보게 된다: 국회의사당의 돔 지붕과 교회의 돔 지붕.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;감사하게도 조용기 목사님은 비전을 가지고 계셨다. 당신은 또 다른 비전을 가지게 될 것이다. 진정한 키는 비전을 가지는 것이다. 그러면 양들이 따라올 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1336273096104571567?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1336273096104571567/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1336273096104571567' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1336273096104571567'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1336273096104571567'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2012/01/la-vision-de-una-gran-iglesia.html' title='LA VISIÓN DE UNA GRAN IGLESIA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1278078345700998225</id><published>2012-01-12T04:25:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-12T04:27:15.129-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS CÉLULAS COMO ESTILO DE VIDA.</title><content type='html'>Para los primeros cristianos el reunirse en las casas no era un programa religioso que se añadía a sus actividades diarias. Para ellos, las reuniones en las casas eran la vida cristiana. No podían concebir el ser cristiano desligado de las reuniones en las casas.&lt;br /&gt;Cuando la cultura del trabajo celular penetra en las personas, no ven más a las células como un programa sino como un estilo de vida. El estilo de vida de los cristianos. Consecuentemente, no era para ellos una carga o algo que pudiese suspenderse por motivos diversos. De la misma manera que no podemos suspender el ser cristianos y el depender de Dios.&lt;br /&gt;Por el contrario, la vivencia de la fe se hace mucho más profunda en momento de reuniones anuales de la familia, en medio de la enfermedad, en las vacaciones o en medio de los desastres naturales. Cuando la fe se aviva se incrementa la pasión por reunirse en las casas.&lt;br /&gt;Solamente cuando el trabajo celular es algo periférico a nuestras vidas o cuando no lo hemos integrado como nuestro estilo de vida cristiano, lo vemos como algo de lo cual podemos prescindir o ausentarnos. En la medida que hagamos nuestra la vida de la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento, las reuniones en casas se convertirán en una necesidad para vivir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells as a lifestyle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;For the first Christians to gather in houses was not a religious program that was added to their daily activities. To them, the meetings in houses were the Christian life. They could not conceive being Christians detached from the meetings in houses.&lt;br /&gt;When the cell work culture penetrates into people, they do not see the cells as a program anymore but as a lifestyle. Christian’s lifestyle. Consequently, to them it was not a burden or something that could be suspended for various reasons. In the same way we cannot suspend ourselves from being Christians and from depending on God.&lt;br /&gt;On the contrary, the experience of faith becomes much deeper in times of annual meetings with the family, through the illness, holidays or in the midst of natural disasters. The passion for meeting in houses increases when faith is kindled.&lt;br /&gt;Only when the cell work is peripheral to our lives or when we have not integrated it as our Christian lifestyle, we see it as something that we can leave or be absent from. The house meetings will become a necessity to live, to the extent we make the life of the New Testament church our own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Células como Estilo de Vida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Quando os primeiros cristãos se reuniram em casas, não foi um programa religioso que foi adicionado às suas atividades diárias. Para eles, o encontro nas casas era sua vida cristã. Não podiam conceber o fato de serem cristãos desvinculado dos encontros nas casas.&lt;br /&gt;Quando a visão e a paixão pelo ministério de células penetram profundamente nas vidas das pessoas, elas não veem a célula mais como um programa mas como um estilo de vida. Não é mais um fardo ou algo que possa ser facilmente suspendido. Se torna parte da vida cristã.&lt;br /&gt;As células continuam a se encontrar e ter grande eficácia durante dificuldades, feriados ou até mesmo durante desastres naturais. A paixão e fé para o encontro de casa em casa realmente aumentam durante essas ocasiões em especial.&lt;br /&gt;Só quando o ministério de células é secundário em nossas vidas ou quando ainda não o temos integrado às nossas vidas cristãs, o vemos como algo que podemos abandonar ou ficar sem.

No es posible presentar a Jesús como salvador sin pasar por las enseñanzas de las Escrituras. Especialmente cuando las lecciones consisten en estudios sistemáticos de libros enteros del Nuevo Testamento que van desarrollándose versículo a versículo.&lt;br /&gt;Aunque no es nuestra meta básica alcanzar la madurez de los creyentes en la célula, de alguna manera, ellos se edifican por ejercer la función de enseñanza o por escuchar la exposición del evangelio.&lt;br /&gt;¿Adónde se produce entonces la maduración de los cristianos en Elim? La respuesta es: en las celebraciones. Pero, es importante aclara que los miembros de Elim asisten a la celebración tres veces por semana. Sé que para otros países esto puede parecer excesivo. Pero así es el calor del latino en su vida cristiana. Por supuesto, comprendo que las cosas son diferentes en otras culturas. Incluso, son diferentes en nuestras propias iglesias filiales fuera de El Salvador. &lt;br /&gt;Existe entonces un balance entre el esfuerzo evangelizador en las células y la edificación en la celebración. La madurez obtenida en la celebración le permite a nuestros miembros ir a ejercer una evangelización eficaz en las células. Y el trabajo en las células desarrolla en ellos necesidades que buscan satisfacer en la celebración. Así, es como vuela esta iglesia de dos alas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Evangelism and the edification in a cell church.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although our lessons in Elim church are evangelizing, it is inevitable for them to be at the same time edifying to the believers. It is not possible to present Jesus as Savior without going through the teachings of the Scriptures. Especially when the lessons consist of systematic studies of whole books of the New Testament that are developed verse by verse.&lt;br /&gt;Eventhough it is not our primary goal to see that believers reach maturity in the cell, somehow, they are edified by exerting the function of teaching or by listening to the exposition of the Gospel.&lt;br /&gt;Where then is the maturation of Elim’s Christians produced? The answer is: in the celebrations. But it is important to make clear that Elim members attend the celebrations three times a week. I know that for other countries this might seem excessive. But this how the Latino’s warmth is when it comes to his Christian life. Of course, I understand that things are different in other cultures. They are different even in our own branch churches outside of El Salvador.&lt;br /&gt;Then, there is a balance between the evangelization work in the cells and the edification in the celebration. The maturity gained in the celebration allows our members to exert an efficient evangelization in the cells. And the cell work develops in them needs they seek to meet in the celebration. Thus, this is how this  two wings church flies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀교회에서 전도와 몸 세움&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서 우리의 셀 레슨들은 전도에 초점을 맞추고 있지만, 그들은 동시에 다른 신자들을 세우는 일도 피할 수 없다. 성경의 가르침을 통해서 진행하지 않고는 예수님을 구세주로 제시할 수 없다. 특히 레슨이 신약 성경 전체의 말씀을 구절 구절 가지고 체계적으로 가르치는 레슨일 때, 더욱 그러하다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;신자들이 셀 안에서 성숙하게 자라가는 것이 우리의 우선적인 목표는 아니지만, 그들은 하나님 말씀의 가르침에 의해서, 복음이 제시되는 모습을 들으면서 세워지고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림 교회 신자들의 성숙은 어디에서 되어지는가? 그 답은 축제예배에서 이다. 하지만 엘림교인은 주중에 세 번의 축제예배를 드리는 것이 중요하다.다른 나라에서는 이것이 과도한 것처럼 보일 수 있다는 것도 나는 잘 안다. 하지만 이것은 라틴 문화의 열정과 불을 보여주는 것으로, 성경 가르침을 배우고 자라고자 하는 열망이다. 물론, 이것은 다른 나라에서는 좀 다르다는 것도 나는 잘 안다. 엘살바도르의 다른 지역에 있는 우리의 지교회들도 다르다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀에서 전도 사역과 축제예배에서 몸 세움 사이의 균형이 있다. 축제예배에서 얻어진 성숙은 우리의 교인들이 셀에서 효과적인 전도를 실천하게끔 허락한다. 셀에서 불신자들에게 다가가기는 사람들에게 축제예배에서 더 많은 배움의 열정을 가져다 준다. 그러므로, 셀교회의 두 날개가 함께 움직일 때 교회는 날아오르게 된다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4720213397238139144?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4720213397238139144/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4720213397238139144' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4720213397238139144'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4720213397238139144'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/12/la-evangelizacion-y-la-edificacion-en.html' title='LA EVANGELIZACIÓN Y LA EDIFICACIÓN EN UNA IGLESIA CELULAR'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6914940336084899335</id><published>2011-12-08T05:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-12-08T05:31:02.425-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS LECCIONES DE CÉLULAS DE IGLESIA ELIM</title><content type='html'>Para que una lección de célula sea eficiente, es necesario definir cuál es el público que se desea alcanzar con ella y cuáles los contenidos que se desean compartir. En el caso de iglesia Elim, la lecciones de células van dirigidas a los invitados y su propósito es eminentemente evangelizador. &lt;br /&gt;Dado que la lección no es para los creyentes y tampoco para su maduración espiritual, la presentación de la enseñanza se vuelve sencilla y no tiene más objeto que presentar a Jesús como salvador.&lt;br /&gt;Toda lección ofrece una lectura bíblica inicial. Luego se detalla la Verdad Central. Este es un elemento fundamental pues acá se presenta en una o dos frases la esencia de la enseñanza del día. Luego, viene el desarrollo de la lección propiamente dicha que sigue los tres elementos básicos de una enseñanza:&lt;br /&gt;• Introducción.&lt;br /&gt;• Cuerpo.&lt;br /&gt;• Aplicación.&lt;br /&gt;Las lecciones se ofrecen de manera impresa en forma de folleto e incluyen las enseñanzas para el trimestre. De esa manera, el líder tiene de antemano todas la enseñanzas. Al final de cada uno de esos folletos, se presenta un glosario de las palabras que pudiesen presentar algún grado de dificultad para el líder. De esta manera se trata de facilitar y hacer eficiente la enseñanza de la célula. &lt;br /&gt;En su libro ‘Elim’, Joel Comiskey presenta un modelo de nuestras lecciones. El libro se encuentra publicado en inglés, español, portugués y mandarín.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The lessons of Elim church’s cells &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a cell lesson to be efficient, you must define the public you want to reach with it and the content you want to share. In the case of Elim Church, the cell lessons are directed to the guests and their purpose is eminently for evangelizing.&lt;br /&gt;Since the lesson is not for believers and either for their spiritual maturity, the presentation of the teaching becomes simple and has no other purpose than to present Jesus as savior.&lt;br /&gt;Every lesson offers an initial reading of the Bible. Then, the Central Truth is displayed with detail. This is a key element since in one or two sentences the essence of that day’s teaching is presented here. Then, the development of the lesson itself comes, which follows the three basic elements of a teaching:&lt;br /&gt;• Introduction.&lt;br /&gt;• Text (or Body).&lt;br /&gt;• Implementation.&lt;br /&gt;The lessons are available in print in a booklet form and include the lessons for the quarter. Thus, the leader has all the lessons beforehand. At the end of each of those booklets, a glossary of words that might display some kind of difficulty for the leader is presented. This is how we try to facilitate and make the cell´s teaching efficient.&lt;br /&gt;In his book, “Passion and Persistence”, Joel Comiskey presents a model of our lessons.

Los estudios están basados en un libro del Nuevo Testamento. Por ejemplo, puede ser el evangelio de Juan. En cada semana de reunión se toma una parte de ese evangelio y se hace una exposición de sus enseñanzas con un énfasis evangelizador.&lt;br /&gt;La siguiente semana, se continúa con los versículos que siguen. De esa manera, se va desarrollando un estudio versículo a versículo de ese evangelio hasta completarlo. En un libro tan extenso como el evangelio de Juan las enseñanzas pueden tomar de tres a cuatro trimestres. Otros libros del Nuevo Testamento que son más cortos se pueden impartir en un solo trimestre.&lt;br /&gt;Las personas asisten a la célula, entre otras cosas, porque tienen interés en conocer la continuación del estudio de la semana anterior. Así, la enseñanza de la Biblia ocupa un lugar prominente. En términos de tiempo, la mayor parte de la reunión se dedica a la enseñanza de la Biblia.&lt;br /&gt;Bajo esas condiciones la enseñanza de la Palabra de Dios se convierte en el elemento atractivo alrededor del cual gira el interés de los invitados a una célula.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Bible teaching in the cell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The lessons taught at Elim cells contain a teaching taken directly from the Word of God. The studies are based on a book of the New Testament. For example, it may be the Gospel of John. A part of the Gospel is taken each week in the meeting and an exposition of its teachings is done with an emphasis on evangelization.&lt;br /&gt;On the following week, we continue with the verses that come next. In that way, we develop a verse by verse study of the Gospel to its completion. In a book as large as the Gospel of John, teachings can take three to four quarters. Other New Testament books that are shorter can be imparted in a single quarter.&lt;br /&gt;Among other things, people attend the cell because they have an interest in knowing the previous week’s continuance of the study. Thus, the teaching of the Bible occupies a prominent place. In terms of time, most of the meeting is dedicated to the teaching of the Bible.&lt;br /&gt;The teaching of the Word of God becomes under those conditions the attractive element around which revolves the cell guests’ interest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀에서 성경 가르치기&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회 셀에서 가르치는 레슨들은 하나님 말씀으로부터 직접 취한 가르침들이다. 성경 공부들은 신약성경에 기초한다. 예를 들어, 요한복음이 될 수도 있다. 복음서의 일부가 전도를 강조하면서 매주 모임에서 가르쳐지는 것이다. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그 다음 주에는, 계속해서 그 다음에 오는 구절들을 계속해서 가르친다. 이런 식으로, 우리는 복음서 성경공부를 구절 구절 따라 가면서 마친다. 요한복음처럼 양이 많은 책에 대해서, 가르침은 3-4분기 동안 지속될 수 있다. 보다 짧은 다른 신약 성경들은 한 분기만에 나눌 수도 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;어떤 사람들은 이전 주에 배운 것과의 연속성을 이어가면서 배우는 것에 관심이 있기 때문에 오는 사람도 있다. 이러한 성경 가르침이 주가 된다. 시간적으로는, 모임의 대부분이 성경 가르침에 쓰인다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;우리의 경험상, 하나님 말씀을 가르치는 것이 멤버들을 먹이고, 손님들에게 매력을 발산하는 요소가 된다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1725019046037997589?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1725019046037997589/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1725019046037997589' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1725019046037997589'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1725019046037997589'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/12/la-ensenanza-de-la-biblia-dentro-de-la.html' title='LA ENSEÑANZA DE LA BIBLIA DENTRO DE LA CÉLULA.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4986149289805855373</id><published>2011-11-24T17:29:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-24T17:30:02.620-08:00</updated><title type='text'>HONOR Y VERGUENZA EN EL SIGLO PRIMERO.</title><content type='html'>Las ciencias sociales han aportado importantes elementos en la comprensión de las Escrituras. Ahora se sabe que un aspecto fundamental de las relaciones sociales entre los primeros cristianos era los conceptos de honor y vergüenza. Las sociedades mediterráneas consideraban el honor como una virtud que se debía procurar por todos los medios. &lt;br /&gt;Un elemento muy importante en la adquisición y conservación del honor era la hospitalidad. Se consideraba una gran vergüenza el no mostrarse hospitalario con las personas. Por el contrario, el ser hospedador contribuía a incrementar el honor de la persona. Mientras mayores fueran las atenciones al huésped o mayor el número de huéspedes que se recibían, mayor honor atribuido.&lt;br /&gt;Por ese motivo fue que la hospitalidad se convirtió en una virtud muy apreciada por los primeros cristianos y esa es la razón por la que se hacen múltiples menciones del tema en el Nuevo Testamento.&lt;br /&gt;Aunque hoy en día las relaciones de honor y vergüenza no son tan rígidas como en la antigüedad, todavía sigue siendo verdad que la hospitalidad se considera una muestra de cortesía. Una razón importante que debería animar a los cristianos a mostrar su hospitalidad como anfitriones de células. Que no es la única forma de hospitalidad, pero sí una muy importante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Honor and shame in the first century.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The social sciences have contributed with important elements in the understanding of Scriptures. We now know that a fundamental aspect of social relations among the early Christians were the concepts of honor and shame. Honor was considered by Mediterranean societies as a virtue to be sought by all means.&lt;br /&gt;Hospitality was a very important element in the acquisition and preservation of honor. It was considered of great shame not to show hospitality to the people. On the contrary, to be hospitable contributed to increase the person’s honor. The greater the attentions toward the guest, or the greater the number of guests received, the greater the honor conferred.&lt;br /&gt;That was the reason why hospitality became a virtue highly appreciated by the early Christians and that is the reason why multiple mentions of the topic are made in the New Testament.&lt;br /&gt;Although today the relationships of honor and shame are not as rigid as in ancient times, it still remains true that hospitality is considered a sign of courtesy. It is a very important reason that should encourage Christians to show their hospitality as cells hosts, which it is not the only form of hospitality, but an important one indeed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4986149289805855373?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4986149289805855373/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4986149289805855373' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4986149289805855373'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4986149289805855373'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/11/honor-y-verguenza-en-el-siglo-primero.html' title='HONOR Y VERGUENZA EN EL SIGLO PRIMERO.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6439044530818170048</id><published>2011-11-17T04:32:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-17T04:34:03.043-08:00</updated><title type='text'>EL CÍRCULO DE INFLUENCIA DEL ANFITRIÓN</title><content type='html'>El anfitrión disfruta de una ventaja sobre todos los demás miembros de la célula y es que se trata del propietario de la casa donde se realizan las reuniones. Ante los invitados, eso es muy importante. No es lo mismo que yo invite a un amigo a ir a mi casa que invitarlo a ir a la casa de alguien que él no conoce.&lt;br /&gt;Solamente el anfitrión es el que puede decir a sus amigos: ‘Te invito a una reunión en mi casa’. Todos los demás tendrán que decir: ‘Te invito a una reunión en casa de alguien que yo conozco.’&lt;br /&gt;Por esa razón, el anfitrión debe aprovechar esa ventaja y ganar a su círculo de influencia. El papel del anfitrión es vital para la multiplicación celular. En realidad todos los demás miembros de la célula tendrán que depender de la actitud del anfitrión para ganar a sus propias amistades para Jesús.&lt;br /&gt;Los miembros de la célula deben ser considerados con el anfitrión ya que el bienestar de la célula dependerá en buena medida del bienestar del anfitrión. Esto no debe anular la responsabilidad de cada miembro en la multiplicación celular, pero tampoco se debe desvalorizar el papel clave del anfitrión. En el reconocimiento de la función diversa pero complementaria de cada miembro se encuentra la clave para la multiplicación.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The host’s circle of influence&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The host has an advantage over all other members of the cell which is that he is the owner of the house where the meetings are held. This is very important to the guests. It is not the same to invite a friend to come over my house than to invite him to someone elses house who he does not know.&lt;br /&gt;The host is the only one who can say to his friends: “I want to invite you to a meeting at my house”. Everyone else will have to say: “I want to invite you to a meeting in the house of someone I know”.&lt;br /&gt;It is for this reason that the host has to take advantage of that leverage and win his circle of influence. The host’s role is vital for cell multiplication. In fact all the other cell members will have to depend on the host’s attitude to win their own friends for Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;The cell members should be considerate to the host since the cell’s wellfare will depend largelly on the host’s well-being. This should not nullify each member’s responsibility with cell multiplication, but neither should we underrate the host’s key role. In the acknowledgment of the diverse but complementary function of each member lies the key to multiplication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;O Circulo de influência do Anfitrião.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O anfitrião tem uma vantagem sobre outros membros da célula porque ele/ela é a dona da casa. Isto é muito importante para os convidados. É diferente quando eu convido alguém para vir à minha casa do que quando eu convido para vir à casa de outra pessoa.&lt;br /&gt;O anfitrião é o único que pode dizer aos seus amigos: “ Eu gostaria de convidá-lo para uma reunião na minha casa”. Todos os outros terão que dizer: “Eu gostaria de convidá-lo para uma reunião na casa de uma pessoa que eu conheço.”&lt;br /&gt;Esta é a razão  da qual o anfitrião tem de tirar vantagem da oportunidade e ganhar seu círculo de influência. O papel do anfitrião é vital para a multiplicação da célula. De fato, todos os outros membros da célula em algum momento terão de depender da atitude do anfitrião para ganhar seus amigos para Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;O membro da célula deverá ser considerar  o anfitrião desde que o bom andamento da célula dependa da grande dedicação das boas maneiras do anfitrião. Isto não deverá anular as responsabilidades de cada membro da célula para com sua multiplicação, mas também não devemos esquecer do papel do anfitrião.  No conhecimento das diversas  mas complementares funções de cada membro da célula, repousa a chave da multiplicação.    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;호스트의 영향력의 원&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;호스트는 집 주인이기 때문에 다른 셀 멤버들에 대해서 잇점을 가진다. 이것은 손님들에게 매우 중요하다. 내가 누군가의 집으로 사람을 초대하는 것과 내가 그 동일한 사람을 나의 집으로 초대하는 것과는 다르다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;호스트는 그의 친구들에게 말할 수 있는 유일한 사람이다: "나는 당신을 나의 집에서 열리는 모임에 초대하고 싶어요." 모든 사람들이 또한 말해야 할 것이다: "나는 내가 아는 누군가의 집에서 열리는 모임에 당신을 초대하고 싶어요."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;호스트가 이러한 지렛대의 잇점을 안고, 그/그녀의 영향력의 원을 영접시키는 것이 바로 이러한 이유이다. 호스트의 역할은 셀 번식에서 중요하다. 사실, 다른 모든 멤버들은, 어떤 의미에서, 그들 자신의 친구들을 영접시키는 일이 호스트의 태도에 달려 있을 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀의 안녕은 호스트의 웰빙 정도에 달려 있을 것이기에, 셀 멤버들은 호스트를 잘 고려해야 할 것이다. 이것은 셀 번식에서 각각의 멤버들의 책임을 무효화시키지는 않을 것이지만, 호스트의 키 역할을 과소평가하지도 않을 것이다. 각각의 멤버들의 다양성을 인정하면서도, 그들의 보충적 기능이 번식의 열쇠가 된다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6439044530818170048?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6439044530818170048/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6439044530818170048' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6439044530818170048'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6439044530818170048'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/11/el-circulo-de-influencia-del-anfitrion.html' title='EL CÍRCULO DE INFLUENCIA DEL ANFITRIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5607427182600626900</id><published>2011-11-10T05:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-10T05:43:19.257-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA PASIÓN Y LA PERSISTENCIA COMO CLAVE PARA LOS ANFITRIONES</title><content type='html'>Ser un anfitrión de célula no es algo fácil.

Pronto la célula de su casa comenzó a multiplicarse y las nuevas células se ubicaron en casas de nuevos anfitriones en su vecindario.&lt;br /&gt;Cuando por alguna razón Hortensia no estaba en casa, dejaba a su hermana como encargada para que la reunión de célula siempre se realizara. &lt;br /&gt;En una ocasión y después de más de 10 años de trabajo, pensé que era el momento de dejar descansar a Hortensia después de tanto tiempo de fiel servicio. Así que instruí al supervisor responsable para que trasladara esa célula a casa de un nuevo anfitrión, lo cual, hizo prontamente.&lt;br /&gt;A los pocos días Hortensia me pidió hablar conmigo. Cuando estuvimos en mi oficina de la iglesia se echó a llorar y a preguntarme en qué había pecado. Yo le respondí que yo no estaba enterado de si había pecado. Ella entonces me preguntó que entonces por qué le retiraba la célula de su casa.&lt;br /&gt;Le expliqué que ya había servido por más de una década al Señor como anfitriona y que yo había pensado que ella necesita un merecido descanso. Pero llorando abundantemente me pidió que no hiciera eso. Que para ella no era de ninguna manera molesto abrir las puertas de su casa para la célula y que deseaba seguir haciéndolo.&lt;br /&gt;Apenado, le pedí disculpas y le prometí que la célula volvería a su hogar. Lo cual, sucedió. Ahora, han transcurrido ya 25 años desde que Hortensia abrió las puertas de su casa. Un total de 135 células se han originado de la célula en su hogar. Muchas personas han conocido al salvador Jesús en casa de Hortensia y ella sigue sirviendo al Señor como anfitriona.&lt;br /&gt;Joel Comiskey hizo un excelente trabajo al resumir el trabajo de iglesia Elim en dos palabras: pasión y persistencia. Creo que si nos es pasión y persistencia lo que Hortensia tiene, entonces, ¿Qué es?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Passion and persistence, key to hosts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being a cell host is not easy. Being a host involves keeping the house open once a week to receive people on a permanent basis. You need to have great compassion for the lost to avoid declining in this function.&lt;br /&gt;Hortesia was one of the first hostesses we had at the beginning of our cell work. In her house one of the 9 cells with which we commenced was opened. She opened the doors of her house to receive the guests for many years. Very soon the cell in her house started to multiply and the new cells were located in her neighborhood in houses of new hosts.&lt;br /&gt;If for any reason Hortensia wasn’t  home, she left her sister in charge so the cell meeting would always be done.&lt;br /&gt;In one occasion and after more than ten years of work, I thought it was the right moment to let Hortensia rest after so many time of faithful service. So I instructed the coach in charged to move that cell to a new host’s house, which he promptly did.&lt;br /&gt;A few days later Hortensia asked to speak with me. When we were at my office she burst into tears and asked me in what she had sinned. I answered that I was not aware if she had sinned. Then she asked why I was taking the cell out of her house.&lt;br /&gt;I explained that she had already serve the Lord as a hostess for over a decade and that I had thought she needed a well earned rest. But weeping abundantly she asked me not to do that. That to her it was not a bother at all to open the doors of her house for the cell and that it was her desire to keep on doing it.&lt;br /&gt;Embarrassed I apologized to her and promised that the cell would return to her house. Which happened. 25 years have passed by since Hortensia opened the doors of her house. A total of 135 cells have originated from the cell in her home. Many people have known Jesus the savior in Hortensia’s house and she keeps on serving the Lord as a hostess.&lt;br /&gt;Joel Comiskey did a great job summarizing in two words Elim church’s work: passion and persistence. I believe that if it is not passion and persistence what Hortensia has, then ...What is it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Paixão e persistência, chaves para anfitriões.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ser um anfitrião de célula não é fácil. Envolve manter a casa aberta uma vez por semana para receber pessoas com suporte permanente. Receber as pessoas requer uma profunda compaixão com o perdido.              Hortênsia foi uma das primeiras anfitriãs que tivemos, no início do trabalho em células. Ela hospedou uma das primeiras células em Elim. Ela abriu as portas de sua casa para receber convidados por muitos anos. Não demorou muito para que novas células se multiplicassem a partir da que se reunia em sua casa e encheram a área próxima. Se por algum motivo Hortência não estava em casa, ela deixava sua irmã encarregada de receber a célula, para que esta ocorresse.                  Em uma ocasião, após receber a célula por mais de dez anos, eu pensei que era o momento certo para pedir a Hortência que fizesse uma pausa, após tanto tempo de serviço fiel. Então eu instrui seu líder a mover a célula que acontecia em sua casa para um novo loca, o que ele fez prontamente.              Alguns dias depois, Hortência pediu para falar comigo. Quando estávamos em meu escritório, ela caiu em lágrimas e me perguntou em que área estava pecando. Eu respondi que eu não sabia de nenhum pecado de sua vida. Então ela me perguntou por que eu havia removido a célula de sua casa. Eu expliquei que ela já tinha servido ao Senhor como anfitriã por mais de uma década, e que eu pensei que ela precisasse de um merecido descanso. Ainda em meio a lágrimas ela me pediu que não fizesse isso. Disse-me que não era um sacrifício abrir as portas de sua casa para receber um grupo de célula, e que era seu sincero desejo continuar fazendo isso.              Envergonhado, eu pedi perdão a ela e prometi que a célula continuaria a se encontrar em sua casa.  Agora já faz mais de vinte e cinco anos desde que Hortência abriu as portas de sua casa para um grupo de célula pela primeira vez. Um total de 135 células foi originado da célula em sua casa. Muitas pessoas vieram a reconhecer Jesus como Senhor e Salvador através da casa da Hortência, e ela continua servindo o Senhor como anfitriã.              Joel Comiskey fez um grande trabalho resumindo em duas palavras as características do Ministério de Células de Elim: paixão e persistência. Eu acredito que se não for paixão e persistência que Hortência tem, então o que é?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;열정과 끈기, 호스트로 가는 열쇠&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 호스트가 되는 것은 쉽지 않다. 고정된 장소에서 열리는 셀의 경우, 일주일에 한번씩 사람들을 수용하기 위해 꾸준히 집을 오픈하는 일이 포함된다. 호스팅은 잃어버린자들을 향한 깊은 열정이 요구된다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;호르테시아는 우리의 셀 사역 초기에 첫번째 호스테스들 중 한 사람이었다. 그녀는 엘림교회의 첫 9개의 셀들 중 하나를 그녀의 집에서 주관하였다. 그는 오랜 세월 동안 그녀의 집을 활짝 열고 손님들을 반겼다. 그녀의 집이 가득차고 새로운 셀들이 번식하기까지 그리 오랜 시간이 걸리지 않았다. 어떠한 이유로 해서 호르테시아의 집에서 열리지 못하면, 그녀는 누이의 집으로 장소를 옮겨 모임이 항상 있게 하였다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;때때로, 10년이상 셀을 주관했으니, 호르텐시아에게 오랜 세월을 성실하게 섬기었으니 이제 그만 쉬라고 그녀에게 청할 때가 되었다는 생각이 든다. 그래서 나는 그녀의 코치에서 셀 장소를 그녀의 집에서 새로운 집으로 옮기라고 이야기하였다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;며칠후, 호르텐시아가 나에게 이야기하고 싶다는 것이었다. 우리의 사무실에 함께 모였을 때, 그녀가 눈물을 흘리면서 자신에게 어떤 잘못이 있는지 말해달라는 것이었다. 나는 그녀의 삶에서 어떠한 죄도 발견하지 못했다고 말했다. 그러자 그녀가 왜 셀모임 장소를 옮기려고 하는지를 물었다. 나는 그녀가 이미 십년 이상을 성실하게 주님을 섬겼기에, 그래서 충분한 휴식이 필요하다고 생각했다고 설명해주었다. 그녀는 눈물을 흐르면서, 그렇게 하지 말아 줄 것을 청했다. 그녀는 그녀의 집을 오픈하고 셀모임을 주관하는 일에 있어서 탈진해 있지 않다고 말했다. 오히려 그 일을 계속하는 것이 그녀에게는 간절한 바람이었다고 하였다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;당황스럽게도, 나는 그녀에게 용서를 구하고, 셀은 계속해서 그녀의 집에서 열릴 것이라고 약속하였다. 호르텐시아가 그녀의 집에서 처음 셀을 연 이후 25년 이상이 지났다. 135개의 셀이 그녀의 집에서 잉태되어 나왔다. 많은 사람들이 호르텐시아의 집을 통해서 구세주로, 주님으로 예수님을 알게 되었다. 그녀는 호스테스로서 주님을 계속해서 섬기고 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;죠엘 코미스키는 엘림교회의 셀사역을 특징짓는 단어로 두 단어를 요약하였다: 열정과 끈기. 나는 호르텐시아가 열정과 끈기를 소유하고 있지 않다고 말한다면, 도대체 그것이 무엇이겠는가 라고 되묻고 싶다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5607427182600626900?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5607427182600626900/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5607427182600626900' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5607427182600626900'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5607427182600626900'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/11/la-pasion-y-la-persistencia-como-clave.html' title='LA PASIÓN Y LA PERSISTENCIA COMO CLAVE PARA LOS ANFITRIONES'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8267699653400004438</id><published>2011-11-03T11:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T11:33:45.072-07:00</updated><title type='text'>TRABAJANDO CON CÉLULAS ROTATIVAS Y PERMANENTES</title><content type='html'>Las células rotativas son aquellas que pasan de una casa a otra cambiando de anfitrión cada semana, en tanto que las células permanentes son aquellas que se mantienen en la casa del mismo anfitrión todas las semanas.&lt;br /&gt;En nuestro trabajo en iglesia Elim realizamos los dos tipos de reuniones y las dos han sido de bendición. Las células rotativas tienen la virtud de alcanzar nuevos círculos de influencia cada vez que pasan de una casa a otra. El hecho que la célula es novedad en un hogar se convierte en un elemento de atracción para los vecinos.&lt;br /&gt;Por su parte, las células permanentes, aunque conservan su círculo de influencia sin variar, tienen la virtud de convertirse en una constante cada semana. Las personas pueden tener un trabajo de seguimiento más extenso y muchas oportunidades de asistir a una célula cercana.&lt;br /&gt;Utilizamos las células rotativas con aquellos anfitriones que desean tener una célula pero que todavía no han experimentado el nuevo nacimiento. Con el fin de no ser excluyentes, se les comunica que se realizarán en su hogar algunas reuniones. Esa célula es de carácter rotativo pues solamente estará en ese hogar un poco de tiempo. Luego pasará a casa de otro anfitrión. Esto siempre es así a menos que en ese tiempo el anfitrión experimente el nuevo nacimiento. En ese caso, la célula pasa de ser rotativa a permanente.&lt;br /&gt;De esa manera es como combinamos el trabajo con ambos tipos de células de manera muy provechosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Working with rotating and permanent cells.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rotating cells are those that move from one house to another changing host each week, while the permanent cells are those that remain in the same host’s house every week.&lt;br /&gt;In our work at Elim Church we perform the two types of meetings and the two have been a blessing. Rotating cells have the virtue to reach new spheres of influence each time they move from one house to another. The fact that the cell is a novelty in a home becomes an element of attraction for the neighbors.&lt;br /&gt;On the other hand, permanent cells, even though they maintain their sphere of influence without any variation, they have the virtue of becoming a constant each week. People can have a more extensive follow-up work and many opportunities to attend a cell nearby.&lt;br /&gt;Rotating cells are used with those hosts who have not yet experienced the new birth but wish to have a cell. In order not to be exclusive, they are informed that some meetings will be held in their homes. That cell is a rotating cell because it is going to be in that home for a short while. Then it will move to another host's house. This is always like this unless the host experiences the new birth during that time. In that case, the cell goes from been a rotating cell to a permanent one.&lt;br /&gt;In that way is how we combine the work with both types of cells more usefully.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;돌아가면서 모이는 셀과 한 곳에서 모이는 셀과 함께 사역하기&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;로테이션 셀은 한 집에서 또 다른 집으로 옮겨다니는 것이다. 그래서 매주 호스트가 바뀐다. 고정 셀은 매주 같은 집에서 모이는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서는 두 가지 모임 형태를 모두 사용한다. 둘 다 축복이 된다. 로테이션 셀은 집에서 집으로 옮겨 다니기 때문에 새로운 영향력의 영역들에 잘 다가간다. 집에서 모이는 셀이 참신하다는 점은 이웃들에게 매력적인 요소가 된다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;다른 한편으로, 고정 셀은 영향력의 영역에 아무런 변화가 없기는 하지만, 일관성의 미덕이 있다. 이 형태의 셀은 매주 같은 사람들에게 후속조치를 더 확장해 나가기가 쉽다. 그리고 이웃 사람들에게 참여할 수 있는 기회들도 제공해준다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;거듭나지는 않았지만 자신의 집에서 셀모임 하기를 원하는 이들에게도 로테이션 셀에서는 셀모임을 주관하게 한다. 우리는 제외시키는 것을 원치 않는다. 그래서 어떤 모임들이 그들의 집에서 열릴 수 있는지 멤버들에게 우리는 이야기한다. 한시적으로 한 집에서 머무르다가 또 다른 이의 집으로 옮겨가기 때문에 이 셀은 로테이션 셀이 되는 것이다. 만일 호스트가 새 탄생을 경험한다면, 셀은 호스트의 집에서 고정 셀이될 가능성이 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;우리는 로테이션 셀과 고정 셀 모두가 엘림교회에서 잘 작동하는 모습을 보았다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8267699653400004438?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8267699653400004438/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8267699653400004438' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8267699653400004438'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8267699653400004438'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/11/trabajando-con-celulas-rotativas-y.html' title='TRABAJANDO CON CÉLULAS ROTATIVAS Y PERMANENTES'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-636534942650231379</id><published>2011-10-27T08:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-27T08:11:05.519-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CÉLULAS EN LAS CASAS Y FUERA DE LAS CASAS</title><content type='html'>Estoy de acuerdo con Joel Comiskey que una célula puede realizarse en cualquier lugar siempre y cuando sea fuera del edificio de la iglesia. Lo cual, depende mucho de las necesidades de los miembros de esa célula. En El Salvador existe el Movimiento Universitario Cristiano (MUC) que realiza un trabajo de evangelización en las universidades de nuestro país. Ellos se reúnen siguiendo el patrón de las células y, de esa manera, penetran las universidades reuniéndose en los campus de cada una de ellas. Eso les facilita el reunir a los estudiantes sin mayores dificultades.&lt;br /&gt;Algunos de los miembros del MUC son miembros de nuestras iglesias y poseen mucha experiencia en el trabajo celular. Ellos resultan ser muy buenos como líderes dentro del MUC.&lt;br /&gt;Sin embargo, en Elim, todas nuestras células las realizamos en las casas. Desde el principio uno de los objetivos fue el de ganar el grupo familiar. De hecho, al principio nuestras células se llamaron ‘Grupos Familiares’. La razón de ello fue porque así tradujeron al español el titulo de uno de los libros del Pastor Cho: ‘Los Grupos Familiares y el Crecimiento de la Iglesia.’ En razón de ese libro fue que nuestro enfoque se colocó en alcanzar a las familias, lo cual, nos condujo a ubicar las células en las casas únicamente.&lt;br /&gt;Hoy, después de todos estos años, el trabajo se continúa realizando solamente en las casas. No tenemos células ni animamos a que se abran en lugares que no sean las casas. Esa es nuestra manera como lo hacemos en Elim. Pero, creo que si una célula se reúne constantemente en otro lugar que no sea una casa, puede alcanzar los valores de la evangelización, la comunión y la edificación. En realidad, esos son los componentes que convierten a un grupo pequeño en una célula.&lt;br /&gt;Una de las dificultades que vemos en salir de las casas es que la labor del supervisor se dificultaría. Por ejemplo, sería difícil tener un supervisor para una o varias células que se reunieran en una escuela o en una universidad en horas de trabajo. Pero de seguro, este es un problema que algunas iglesias ya habrán resuelto. ¿Por qué no comparten aquí sus experiencias?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Where Cells Should Meet?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree with Joel Comiskey that a cell group can meet anywhere with the exception of the church building. The decision of where to meet depends largely on the needs of the cell members. In El Salvador, the Christian University Movement evangelizes university students throughout the country. This movement focuses on cell groups and utilizes campus classrooms, lawns, cafeterias or anywhere they can find a meeting place for their cell groups. Some of the members of this movement are also part of the Elim Church and bring to the church a in-depth experience in cell ministry and have been a great help to our own cells.&lt;br /&gt;Even though there is a wide variety of cell meeting places, we in Elim focus solely on meeting in the home. From the beginning, our goal was to win the families of El Salvador. In fact, in the beginning we called our cells “Family Groups.” We did this because in Spanish, David Cho’s first book was titled, “Family Groups and the Growth of the Church.” Our goal from the beginning was to reach families with the gospel of Jesus Christ, and so we focused on starting cells in homes.&lt;br /&gt;Today, after so many years of cell ministry, we continue opening cell groups in the homes. We don’t have cell groups in other places, nor do we encourage them. Even though this is our practice at Elim, I believe that if a cell group meets at the same place (even if it’s not a home), it can still fulfill the key values of evangelism, community, and edification. These are the key values that make or break a cell group–not where it meets.&lt;br /&gt;One of the difficulties we face in meeting in places outside the home is that it makes the supervisory work more difficult. For example, it would make it more difficult for a supervisor to visit a university or secular place of employment. At the same time, this is a problem that some cell churches have overcome. Please feel free to share your experiences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Onde as células deveriam se encontrar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eu concordo com Joel Comiskey que o grupo de célula pode se encontrar em qualquer lugar com a exceção do prédio da igreja. A decisão de onde se encontrar depende amplamente das necessidades dos membros da célula. Em El Salvador, o Movimento Cristão Universitário evangeliza estudantes universitários em todas as partes do país. Este movimento se foca em grupos de células e utiliza as salas de aula do campus, gramados, cafeterias ou qualquer lugar que eles encontrem para fazerem seus grupos de células. Alguns dos membros deste movimento também fazem parte da Elim Church e trazem à igreja uma profunda experiência em ministério de células o que tem sido de grande ajuda às nossas próprias células.&lt;br /&gt;Mesmo que haja uma grande variedade de lugares para reunião de célula, nós da Elim nos concentramos apenas nas reuniões nos lares. No começo, nosso alvo era alcançar as famílias de El Salvador. De fato, no princípio chamávamos nossas células de “Grupos Familiares”.Fizemos isso porque, em espanhol, o primeiro livro de David Cho foi intitulado, “Grupos Familiares e o crescimento da Igreja”. Nosso alvo no começo era atingir famílias com o evangelho de Jesus Cristo, então nos focamos em começar células nos lares.&lt;br /&gt;Hoje, após tantos anos de Ministério de Células, continuamos a abrir grupos de células nos lares. Não temos grupos de células em outros lugares, e também não os incentivamos. Mesmo que essa seja nossa atitude em Elim, acredito que se um grupo de células se reúne num mesmo lugar (mesmo que não seja nos lares), ainda pode cumprir os valores-chave do evangelismo, comunhão e edificação. Estes são os valores-chave que constroem ou desfazem um grupo de célula – não onde ela se reúne.  Uma das dificuldades que enfrentamos quanto a nos reunirmos fora dos lares é que isso torna o trabalho de supervisão mais difícil. Por exemplo, isso deixaria mais difícil para um supervisor visitar uma universidade ou local secular de trabalho. Ao mesmo tempo, este é um problema que algumas igrejas em células já superaram. Por favor, sinta-se livre para compartilhar suas experiências.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀들이 모여야 할 곳&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나도 죠엘 코미스키의 말에 동의한다, 셀그룹은 교회 건물을 제외하고 어디에서나 모일 수 있다고 본다. 어디에서 모일지를 결정하는 요소는 셀 멤버들의 필요에 크게 좌우된다. 엘살바도르에서, 기독교 대학 운동이 나라 전역의 대학교로 복음전도하고 있다. 이 운동은 셀그룹에 포커스를 맞추고 있으며, 캠퍼스 교실, 잔디, 카페테리아, 셀들이 모일 수 있는 장소면 어느 장소든지 활용하고 있다. 이 운동의 몇몇 멤버들은 엘교회의 일원이기도 하다. 그들은 셀사역의 깊은 체험을 교회로 가져오고, 우리 자신의 셀에도 크나큰 도움을 주었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀모임 장소의 폭넓은 다양성에도 불구하고, 엘림교회에서 우리는 오직 집에서 모이는데 초점을 둔다. 처음부터, 우리의 목표는 엘살바도르의 가정들을 구원하는 것이었다. 실제로, 초기부터, 우리는 우리의 셀들을 "가족그룹"이라고 불렀다. 스페인어로 된, 조용기 목사님의 책 "Family Groups and the Growth of the Church" 때문에 그리하였다. 우리의 목표는 처음부터 예수 그리스도의 복음을 듣고 가정들에게 다가가는 것이었다. 그래서 우리는 집에서 모이는 셀에 포커스를 두었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;오늘날, 셀사역을 하면서, 우리는 계속해서 집에서 셀그룹을 오픈하게 한다. 우리는 셀그룹이 다른 장소에서 모이지도 않으며, 그리하라고 하지도 않는다. 심지어 엘림교회에서 이것이 우리의 행동실천일지라도, 셀그룹은 동일한 장소에서 모인다면(집이 아닐지라도), 복음전도와 공동체 그리고 몸 세움의 핵심 가치들을 성취할 수 있다고 믿는다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;집 밖의 장소에서 모임을 가지게 되면서 접하는 어려움들 중 하나는 감독 사역이 보다 힘들어진다는 점이다. 예로, 감독이 대학교나 직장을 방문하는 것이 더 어려울 수 있겠다는 것이다. 이것은 어떤 셀교회들은 해결해낸 문제이기도 하다. 당신의 경험담은?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-636534942650231379?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/636534942650231379/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=636534942650231379' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/636534942650231379'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/636534942650231379'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/10/celulas-en-las-casas-y-fuera-de-las.html' title='CÉLULAS EN LAS CASAS Y FUERA DE LAS CASAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2388526780127120259</id><published>2011-10-20T13:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-20T13:28:53.367-07:00</updated><title type='text'>HAZ CAMBIOS A TU MODELO SIN CAMBIAR DE MODELO</title><content type='html'>Roberto Lay, de Brasil, suele decir: “El mejor modelo celular es el que funcione para ti.” Una vez hayas definido las características del modelo que funcione para ti hay dos cosas que debes tener en cuenta.&lt;br /&gt;La primera, es que debes conservar tu modelo básico sin cambiarlo. Se ha explicado ampliamente ya que los modelos no son en ninguna manera una fórmula mágica. Lo que verdaderamente es decisivo es la aplicación sincera de los valores y de los principios. Por tanto, aquellos que saltan de un modelo celular a otro, y luego a otro, lo hacen porque piensan encontrar una clave mágica para el éxito. Pero saltar de un modelo a otro es dañino para la congregación ya que las personas se sienten confundidas, perplejas y sin un rumbo definido.&lt;br /&gt;Después de un tiempo de haber anunciado con grandeza un cambio de modelo, lo cierto es que nada ocurrirá. Entonces las personas se sentirán desalentadas y probablemente no deseen saber nada más acerca de las células.&lt;br /&gt;La segunda cosa que debes saber es que todo modelo se puede mejorar. Los modelos no deben ser rocas inamovibles. Los modelos son creaciones humanas y por lo tanto no son perfectos, pero sí pueden ser mejorados. Por ello es que todo modelo se debe estar ajustando siempre que sea necesario. Al hablar de ajustes nos referimos a pequeños elementos que sirven para corregir el rumbo del barco, pero no para cambiar de barco.&lt;br /&gt;Al relacionarnos con el resto del Cuerpo de Cristo que trabaja con células, nuestra visión se enriquecerá por medio de nuestra experiencia mutua. Se pueden adoptar ciertos énfasis y matices que no constituyen ningún cambio de modelo, pero sí ajustes pequeños que van puliendo nuestros modelos para que vayan ajustándose a las nuevas épocas y a los nuevos desafíos. De esta manera, nuestro modelo siempre se conservará fresco y actualizado. Si lo que haces funciona para ti, sigue haciéndolo. No se debe cambiar ni ajustar lo que funciona muy bien. Pero si consideras que puedes hacer un ajuste para mejorar las cosas, adelante, trabaja en ello.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Make Changes to Your Model without Changing the Model&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robert Lay (Brazil) likes to say, “the best model is the one that works for you.” After you have determined what is the best model for you, there are two things to keep in mind.&lt;br /&gt;The first thing is to keep you model simple. We have repeated on this blog over and over that there is no magical formula. The key is to apply the values and principles to your context. Those that jump on the most recent cell “model” are often misguided into thinking there is a magical formula to success. Jumping on one model to the next will damage the church because the members will feel confused and directionless.&lt;br /&gt;Often when the pastor gives an announcement about a model change, nothing will actually happen. The members will then feel uncomfortable and discouraged. The result is they won’t want to learn about cell ministry in the future.&lt;br /&gt;The second thing that you’ll want to keep in mind is that you can always improve on the model. A model should never be an immovable rock. Models are human creations and because of this, they are not perfect. There’s always room for improvement and must be adjusted continually. When referring to adjustments, I’m referring to tweaking your cell system, rather than changing from model to model.&lt;br /&gt;It’s important to relate to the rest of the cell Church world in order to receive mutual encouragement and stimulation. As you learn from others, you will make small adjustments and be able to polish your model. In this way, your model will maintain fresh and up-to-date. Don’t change anything that already functions well, but if you think something can be improvement, by all means make those changes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Faça mudanças no seu modelo sem mudar o modelo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Roberto Lay (Brasil) gosta de dizer, "o melhor modelo é o que funciona para você". Depois de ter determinado qual é o melhor modelo pra você, existem duas coisas que deve manter em mente.  A primeira coisa é manter esse modelo simples. Nós temos repetido nesse blog muitas vezes que não existe uma fórmula mágica. A chave é aplicar os valores e princípios no seu contexto. Aqueles que adotam o "mais recente modelo" são comumente enganados sobre o fato de ter uma fórmula mágica para o sucesso. Pular de modelo em modelo vai prejudicar a igreja porque os membros se sentirão confusos e sem direção.  Geralmente, quando o pastor faz um pronunciamento sobre uma mudança de modelo, nada vai realmente acontecer. Os membros vão se sentir desconfortáveis e desencorajados. O resultado é que eles não vão querer aprender sobre o ministério de células no futuro.   A segunda coisa que você deve manter em mente é que você sempre pode improvisar no modelo. Um modelo não deve nunca ser uma rocha imóvel. Modelos são criações humanas e por isso, não são perfeitos. Há sempre espaço para improvisações e eles devem ser ajustados continuamente. Quando me refiro a ajustamentos, quero dizer adaptar seu sistema de célula, não mudar de modelo.  É importante relatar isso para o restante da Igreja em Células para que recebam encorajamento e estímulo. Enquanto você aprende com os outros, você faz pequenos ajustes e está habilitado há polir seu modelo. Nesse caminho, o modelo se manterá fresco e atualizado. Não mude nada que funcione bem, mas se você pensa que algo pode ser aperfeiçoados, em todos os casos faça essas mudanças!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;원 모델을 바꾸지 말고 당신의 모델을 바꾸어라&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;로베르트 레이(브라질)는 말하곤 한다, "최고의 모델은 당신에게 잘 작동하는 모델이다." 당신에게 최고의 모델이 어떤 것인지를 정한 후에, 명심해야 할 두 가지가 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;첫 번째는 모델을 심플하게 유지하는 것이다. 마술적인 공식은 없다는 점을 우리는 거듭 이야기해 왔다. 열쇠는 가치와 원리들을 당신의 상황에 맞게 적용하는 것이다. 가장 최근의 셀 "모델"로 점프해 가는 자들은 성공으로 가는 마술적 공식이 있다라는 잘못된 오해를 자주 한다. 한 모델에서 다음 모델로 점프하는 것이 교회에게 해를 줄 뿐이다. 왜냐하면 교인들은 당황해 하고 갈피를 잡지 못하기 때문이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;목사님이 모델 변화에 대해서 광고를 자주 해도, 실제로는 아무런 일도 일어나지 않을 것이다. 교인들은 불편해하고 당혹스러워 할 것이다. 그 결과 그들은 셀 사역에 대해서 배우고 싶어하지 않을 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;두 번째는, 당신도 모델을 항상 향상시킬 수 있다는 점을 명심하는 것이다. 모델은 결단코 움직이지 않는 바위가 될 수 없다. 모델은 인간의 창조물이다. 이 때문에, 그것은 완벽하지 못하다. 항상 개선의 여지가 있으며, 끊임없이 조정되어야 한다. 조정에 대해서 언급할 때, 모델에서 모델로의 변화가 아니라, 차라리 당신의 셀 시스템을 수정한다는 의미이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;상호 격려와 지식 축적을 위해서 세상의 다른 셀교회들과 연결되어지는 것이 중요하다. 당신은 다른 사람들에게 배움으로써, 작은 조정을 행하고, 당신의 모델을 수정할 수 있을 것이다. 이런 식으로, 당신의 모델은 신선함과 새롭게 되어짐을 유지할 것이다. 이미 잘 작동하고 있는 것을 바꾸지 말라. 하지만 무언가 향상될 수 있다고 생각된다면, 그러한 것들을 바꾸어라!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2388526780127120259?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2388526780127120259/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2388526780127120259' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2388526780127120259'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2388526780127120259'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/10/haz-cambios-tu-modelo-sin-cambiar-de.html' title='HAZ CAMBIOS A TU MODELO SIN CAMBIAR DE MODELO'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4806069049949120699</id><published>2011-10-13T01:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-13T01:04:42.857-07:00</updated><title type='text'>PRINCIPIOS DEL TRABAJO CELULAR</title><content type='html'>Como lo expliqué anteriormente, los principios son aquellas verdades que se relacionan con la práctica del trabajo celular. Los principios no se encuentran escritos en la Biblia pero han sido formulados sobre la base de la experiencia de la iglesia celular aplicando los valores bíblicos a sus contextos propios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los principios son enunciados a manera de aforismos y encierran mucha reflexión y sabiduría concentrada. Para extraer toda su riqueza es importante reflexionar detenidamente en cada uno de ellos. A continuación presento algunos principios que he ido coleccionando de diversos hombres de Dios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comencemos con un par de principios enunciados por el Pastor David Cho: “Para triunfar tienes que fallar tres veces.” “Si no se establecen metas para los líderes solamente se reúnen para convivir.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acá hay otro principio de Randall Neighbour: “La multiplicación es el signo visible del discipulado y la salud espiritual.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;También tengo principios que le he escuchado a Joel Comiskey: “Una sola ruta del líder pero muchas maneras para impartirla.” “La ruta del líder es la clave para la multiplicación.” “El modelo se debe ajustar todo el tiempo.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Veamos ahora otro principio de Roberto Lay: “Las células se multiplican solamente cuando se multiplican los líderes.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Y como un aprendiz, sugiero los siguientes: “En el trabajo celular no se trata de desechar a nadie sino de suplir sus deficiencias.” “Las metas en las iglesias pequeñas son mayores que en las iglesias numerosas.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Existen otros principios más. Lo valioso de ellos es que su aplicación para la construcción del modelo propio de cada iglesia es clave para ser exitoso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cell work principles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I explained it before, principles are those truths that relate to the cell work practice. You don’t find principles written in the Bible but these have been formulated on the basis of the cell church experience applying the biblical values to their own contexts.&lt;br /&gt;The principles are enunciations by way of aphorisms and enclose a great deal of reflection and concentrated wisdom. It is important to reflect carefully on each one of them to extract all of its richness. The following are some principles I've been collecting from various men of God.&lt;br /&gt;Let's start with a couple of principles enunciated by Pastor David Cho: "To succeed you must fail three times." "If goals for the leaders are not set they only meet to cohabitate."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is another principle from Randall Neighbour: "Multiplication is the visible sign of discipleship and spiritual health."&lt;br /&gt;I also have principles that I have heard from Joel Comiskey: "A single leader’s route but many ways to impart it." "The leader’s route is the key to multiplication." "The model should be adjusted at all time."&lt;br /&gt;Let’s see now another principle from Roberto Lay: "Cells multiply only when leaders multiply."&lt;br /&gt;And as an apprentice, I suggest the following ones: "In the cell work it is not about dismissing anyone but instead about making up for their deficiencies." "The goals in small churches are greater than in numerous churches."&lt;br /&gt;There are some other principles. What is valuable about them is that their application for the construction of every church´s own model is key to being successful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Princípios do trabalho em células &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Como eu citei anteriormente, princípios são as verdades que refletem na prática do ministério de células. Você não encontra princípios escritos na Bíblia. Aliás, princípios são formulados conforme as igrejas em célula aplicam os valores bíblicos em seus próprios contextos.&lt;br /&gt;Os princípios são a soma total do grande união de reflexão e concentração de sabedoria. Abaixo seguem alguns princípios que eu venho coletando de alguns homens de Deus.&lt;br /&gt;Vamos começar com dois princípios ditos pelo Pastor David Cho:  “Para ter sucesso você precisa falhar três vezes.”  "Se as metas para os líderes não estão definidas eles só se encontram para conviver."&lt;br /&gt;Aqui está outro princípio, de Randall Neighbout:  “Multiplicação é o sinal visível de discipulado e saúde emocional.”&lt;br /&gt;Eu também tenho alguns princípios que ouvi de Joel Comiskey:  “Tenha apenas um trilho de treinamento, mas tenha vários métodos de treinamento.”  “O trilho de treinamento é a chave da multiplicação.”  “O modelo deve ser ajustado todo  tempo.”&lt;br /&gt;Vamos observar outro princípio, de Robert Lay:  “Células só se multiplicam quando os líderes se multiplicam.”&lt;br /&gt;E como aprendiz, eu sugiro os seguintes:  “No trabalho em células não se trata de dispensar alguém, mas, ao invés disso, compensar suas deficiências.”  “Os alvos das pequenas igrejas são maiores que em numerosas igrejas.”&lt;br /&gt;Há outros princípios também.  O que dá valor a esses princípios é que eles podem se aplicar em cada igreja e não são limitados pelo contexto ou cultura. Eles podem ajudar as igrejas a construírem seus modelos únicos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4806069049949120699?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4806069049949120699/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4806069049949120699' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4806069049949120699'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4806069049949120699'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/10/principios-del-trabajo-celular.html' title='PRINCIPIOS DEL TRABAJO CELULAR'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-3525477825711774441</id><published>2011-10-06T19:45:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-06T19:48:30.029-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LOS VALORES, LOS PRINCIPIOS Y LOS MODELOS</title><content type='html'>En el trabajo con células es importante tener claros los conceptos básicos del sistema. Esos conceptos son los valores, los principios y los modelos. Es importante comprender cada uno de estos elementos para saber qué es lo esencial del trabajo y en qué se debe colocar el mayor esfuerzo.&lt;br /&gt;Los valores son los elementos más importantes del trabajo celular y están relacionados con las grandes verdades del evangelio. Los principios son aquellas verdades que se relación con la práctica del trabajo celular. Los modelos son aquellas formas de trabajo que se relacionan con la manera de hacer el trabajo en un lugar específico.&lt;br /&gt;Los valores se extraen de la Palabra de Dios. Los principios se extraen de la experiencia del trabajo celular que se ha ido acumulando por ya medio siglo desde que comenzó al movimiento celular moderno. Finalmente, los modelos se construyen al aplicar los valores y los principios a la realidad particular.&lt;br /&gt;Dado que los valores son la expresión de las enseñanzas bíblicas, su vigencia es perpetua y valedera para toda cultura. Son buenos en todo tiempo y lugar. Los principios también son de aplicación universal ya que se fueron definiendo como resultado del trabajo que diversas iglesias han realizado en distintos puntos del planeta y a lo largo de varias décadas. Los modelos son los que no son valederos en todo lugar y época. Ellos responden a las características únicas del tiempo y del lugar de cada iglesia. Por tanto, el empeño principal debe colocarse en vivir los valores y los principios del trabajo celular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The values, principles and models&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the work with cells it is important to have clear concepts of the system. Those concepts are the values, principles and models. It is important to understand each of these elements to know what is the essential part of the work and in what should most of the effort be placed.&lt;br /&gt;The values are the most important elements of the cell work and are related with the great truths of the Gospel.  The principles are those truths that are related to the cell work practice. The models are those forms of work related to the way on how the work is done in a specific place.&lt;br /&gt;The values are extracted from the Word of God. The principles are drawn from the cell work experience that has been accumulating for half a century now since the modern cell movement started. Finally, the models are built by applying the values and principles to the particular reality.&lt;br /&gt;Because the values are the expression of biblical teachings, their applicability is perpetual and valid for all cultures. They are good at all times and places. The principles are universally applicable since they were defined as a result of the work that many churches have fulfilled in various parts of the globe and throughout decades. The ones that are not valid in every place and time are the models. They respond to the unique characteristics of each church’s time and place. Therefore, the main effort should be placed in living the cell work’s values and principles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Os valores, princípios e modelos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Em ministério de células, é importante ter conceitos claros sobre o sistema. Tais conceitos são os valores, princípios e modelos. É importante entender cada um desses elementos para saber o que é essencial no ministério de células a fim de concentrar-se mais eficazmente.&lt;br /&gt;Os valores são os elementos mais importantes no ministério de células porque estão relacionados às grandes verdades do Evangelho. Os princípios são aquelas verdades que estão relacionadas à prática da célula, e os valores são as formas que se relacionam com a forma como o trabalho é feito em um local específico.&lt;br /&gt;Os valores são extraídos da palavra de Deus. Os princípios são desenhados a partir das experiências da célula que têm sido acumuladas por cerca de meio século – desde que o movimento moderno de células começou. E, finalmente, os modelos são construídos na medida em que são aplicados os valores e princípios a uma determinada realidade.&lt;br /&gt;Porque os valores são a expressão dos ensinamentos bíblicos, sua aplicação é perpétua e válida para todas as culturas. Os valores são bons em todo o tempo e lugar. Os princípios são aplicáveis universalmente desde que foram definidos como resultado do trabalho que muitas igrejas têm cumprido em várias partes do globo e através das décadas. Os que não são aplicáveis em todo tempo e lugar são os modelos. Eles respondem às características únicas de cada tempo e lugar das igrejas. Portanto, o esforço principal deve ser viver os valores e princípios do ministério de células.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;가치, 원리, 모델&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀 사역에서 시스템에 대한 명확한 개념을 잡고 있는 것이 중요하다. 이러한 개념들에는 가치, 원리, 모델들이다. 좀더 효과적으로 포커스를 잡기 위해서 셀 사역에서 이러한 각각의 요소들이 무엇인지를 이해하는 것이 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;가치들은 셀 사역에서 가장 중요한 요소이다. 가치들은 복음의 위대한 진리들과 연관되어 있기 때문이다. 원리들은 셀 실행과 관련된 진리들이다. 모델은 특정한 장소에서 사역이 어떻게 행해지는지와 관련된 형태이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;가치들은 하나님의 말씀으로부터 추출된다. 원리는 반세기 동안 쌓아온 셀 경험들에서 나온다-현대 셀 운동이 시작된 이후. 마지막으로, 모델은 가치와 원리들을 특정한 실체에 적용함으로써 세워진다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;가치들은 성경의 가르침들이 표현되는 것이기 때문에, 그것들의 적용 가능성은 영원하며, 모든 문화권에 타당하다. 그것들은 어느 시간, 어느 공간에서나 통한다. 많은 교회들이 지구 곳곳에서 그리고 수십년에 걸쳐서 이루어낸 업적의 결과로서 원리들을 정의해 내려간다면, 그 원리들은 보편적으로 적용되어질 수 있다. 모든 장소와 시간에 타당하지 못한 것이 모델이다. 모델들은 각각의 시대와 장소에 따라 다르다. 그러므로 셀 사역의 가치와 원리들 대로 살아가려는 노력이 가장 필요할 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-3525477825711774441?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/3525477825711774441/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=3525477825711774441' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/3525477825711774441'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/3525477825711774441'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/10/los-valores-los-principios-y-los.html' title='LOS VALORES, LOS PRINCIPIOS Y LOS MODELOS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6882383428660737277</id><published>2011-09-29T04:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-29T04:56:58.289-07:00</updated><title type='text'>MODELOS CAUTIVANTES PERO ENGAÑOSOS</title><content type='html'>Cuando una persona decide comprar un vehículo lo selecciona en base a la marca, el diseño, los accesorios, el tipo de vehículo y hasta por su color. Muy pocos lo hacen sobre el criterio de si el vehículo se basa en el principio de la expansión de los gases en combustión que permite echar a andar el motor o no.&lt;br /&gt;Parecido es lo que ocurre con el trabajo celular. Muchos están preocupados por la mecánica de trabajo, la distribución semanal del tiempo, el tipo de reporte, el programa de la célula, etc. Pero no se preguntan por los valores y principios que son los que en verdad hacen andar el modelo.&lt;br /&gt;Esto no significa que los elementos mencionados no tengan valor, son elementos importantes pero que no son la clave esencial del trabajo celular. De igual manera, no se puede decir que los accesorios y el color de un carro no son importantes. Pero, no deberían ser los aspectos decisorios a la hora de una compra.&lt;br /&gt;Es importante ir más allá de lo superficial para llegar al corazón del motor. Es necesario descubrir los valores y principios que siempre son la clave de todo. En palabras de Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: “Lo esencial es invisible a los ojos.”&lt;br /&gt;No sea que por preocuparte excesivamente por copiar un modelo celular, termines enamorándote de un carro sin motor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Captivating but deceitful models.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When a person decides to buy a vehicle this is selected based on the brand, design, accessories, the type of vehicle and even for its color. Very few do so on the criterion of whether the vehicle is based on the principle of expansion of combustion gases that can jump-start the engine or not.&lt;br /&gt;What happens with the cell work is similar. Many are worried about the mechanics of work, weekly distribution of time, the type of report, the program of the cell, and so on. But do not ask themeselves about the values and principles which are really the ones that make the model run.&lt;br /&gt;This does not mean that the listed elements are worthless, they are important elements but not the essential key to the cell work. Similarly, we can not say that the accessories and the color of a car are not important. But, they should not be the deciseive issues when it comes to decision making in a purchase.&lt;br /&gt;It is important to go beyond the surface to reach the heart of the engine. It is necessary to discover the values and principles that are always the key to everything. In the words of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry: "What is essential is invisible to the eye."&lt;br /&gt;Lest that for worrying excessively about copying a cell model, you end up falling in love with a car that has no engine.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6882383428660737277?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6882383428660737277/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6882383428660737277' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6882383428660737277'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6882383428660737277'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/09/modelos-cautivantes-pero-enganosos.html' title='MODELOS CAUTIVANTES PERO ENGAÑOSOS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-3554053528854279967</id><published>2011-09-22T05:29:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-22T05:31:25.060-07:00</updated><title type='text'>HACIENDO MISIONES EN CASA</title><content type='html'>Existe un pueblo de los menos alcanzados que viven entre nosotros. No hablan nuestro idioma pero pueden comprender el nuestro. Usualmente no se les da la atención adecuada en las iglesias y por eso la proporción de su presencia en las congregaciones es siempre inferior a su demografía.&lt;br /&gt;Para alcanzarlos no es necesario viajar a países lejanos y exóticos. Tampoco se necesita de un presupuesto para misiones, pues, viven en nuestros vecindarios. Aunque muchas veces tratan de ocultarlos y privarlos de la vida social.&lt;br /&gt;Hablo de los sordomudos. Ellos son el cuarto grupo humano menos alcanzado con el evangelio en el planeta. Aproximadamente el 5% de la población de un país es parte de este grupo humano. Hay más de 357 millones en el planeta.&lt;br /&gt;En nuestra iglesia tenemos el ministerio Arcoiris de Amor que trabaja con niños con algún tipo de discapacidad. Además, entrena a nuevas generaciones de líderes en el lenguaje de señas. Los resultados han sido muy buenos, pues, las personas sordomudas asisten por sí mismas a la iglesia sabiendo que tendrán la oportunidad de comprender los cantos y la predicación.&lt;br /&gt;Pronto nos encontraremos en la capacidad de comenzar nuestras primeras células en lenguaje de señas y alcanzar a los olvidados. No se requiere de grandes presupuestos para alcanzar a los sordomudos.

They do not speak our language but can understand it. They don’t usually receive the adequate attention in the churches and therefore the proportion of their presence in the congregations is always less than its demographics.&lt;br /&gt;It is not necessary to travel to distant and exotic countries to reach them. You don´t need a budget for missions either because they live in our neighborhoods. Though people often try to hide them and deprive them of social life.&lt;br /&gt;I’m talking about the deaf-mute people. They are the fourth human group of people less reached with the gospel on the planet. Approximately 5% of a country´s population is part of this human group. There are over 357 million on the planet.&lt;br /&gt;We have in our church the ‘Rainbow of Love’ ministry that works with children that have some kind of disability. In addition, it is training new generations of leaders in sign language. The results have been very good, since the deaf-mute people attend church by themselves knowing that they will have the chance to understand the singing and preaching.&lt;br /&gt;We will soon be able to start our first sign language cells and reach the forgotten ones. Large budgets are not required to reach the deaf-mute people. You only need those incredible Christians that are passionate for missions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Alcançando os não-alcançados entre nós.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Há um grupo de pessoas dos menos atingidos vivendo entre nós. Eles não falam a nossa língua mas podem entendê-la. Comumente eles não recebem a atenção devida nas igrejas e portanto, a proporção da presença deles nas igrejas é sempre menos que sua demografia.&lt;br /&gt;Não é necessário viajar até países distantes e exóticos para alcançá-los. Você não precisa de um orçamento de missões para alcançá-los, até porque, eles vivem em nossas vizinhanças – embora muitas vezes as pessoas tentem escondê-los e privá-los da vida social.&lt;br /&gt;Falo sobre os surdo-mudos. Eles são um dos grupos menos atingidos no planeta. Aproximadamente 5% da população dos países é parte desse grupo. Existem mais de 357 milhões deles no planeta.&lt;br /&gt;Nós temos em nossa igreja o ministério “Rainbow of Love” que trabalha com crianças que têm algum tipo de incapacidade.  Além disso, este ministério está treinando novas gerações de lideres em linguagem de sinais. Os resultados têm sido muito bons, desde que os surdo-mudos têm comparecido na igreja por iniciativa própria sabendo que teriam a chance de compreender as músicas e a pregação.&lt;br /&gt;Em breve, vamos poder iniciar nossa primeira célula em linguagem de sinais e alcançar esses esquecidos.

La red trabaja con un concepto innovador de cómo hacer misiones. Se especializa en los países menos alcanzados que, coincidentemente, son los países más cerrados al evangelio.&lt;br /&gt;Precisamente porque las condiciones no permiten las misiones en el sentido tradicional, se echa mano de la estrategia celular para penetrar con el evangelio de persona en persona y de casa en casa. La experiencia celular es muy valiosa para desarrollar esta nueva metodología misionera. Por esa razón, las iglesias que ya son completamente celulares se asocian entre sí para enviar líderes que van a sembrar la semilla del evangelio a esos países.&lt;br /&gt;Este modelo, no necesita de agencias misioneras. Se trata de un contacto directo entre la iglesia que envía y la iglesia que ya está trabajando en esos países. De esa manera, no hay gastos de administración que cubrir. La ayuda económica de la iglesia llega íntegra a los misioneros que se encuentran en el campo.&lt;br /&gt;En 2005 se realizó la primera consulta misionera de CCMN en Brasil con el propósito de involucrar a las iglesias celulares de Latinoamérica en el movimiento. Se han realizado ya cuatro consultas en nuestro continente. Los primeros misioneros han sido ya enviados y se encuentran trabajando entre los pueblos menos alcanzados.

The network operates with an innovating concept on how to do missions. It specializes in the least reached countries, which coincidentally, are the most closed to the Gospel.&lt;br /&gt;Precisely  because the conditions do not allow the missions in the traditional way, we draw upon cell strategy to penetrate with the Gospel from person to person and from house to house. The cell experience is very valuable to develop this new missionary methodology.  For that reason, the churches that are already completely cell churches, associate with each other to send leaders that will plant the seed of the Gospel in those countries.&lt;br /&gt;This model does not need missionary agencies. It is about a direct contact between the church that is sending and the church that is already working in those countries. Thus, there are no administrative expenses to cover. The Church’s whole financial support comes to the missionaries that are in the field.&lt;br /&gt;In 2005 the first missionary consultation of CCMN was held in Brazil, for the purpose of involving Latin America’s cell churches in the movement. In our Continent four consultations have been held already. The first missionaries were already sent and are working among  the least reached people.  It is a pioneering method which is expected to lead to great results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Visão da CCMN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Rede Missionária de Igrejas em Células, é um movimento missionário que nasceu na Asia através da ministração do pastor Ben Wong. A Rede opera com um conceito inovador de como fazer missões. Ela se especializa nos últimos países alcançados , que coincidentemente, são os mais fechados para a palavra o Evangelho.&lt;br /&gt;Precisamente porque estes países não permitem missões tradicionais, nós desenhamos uma estratégia de células para levar o evangelho de casa em casa e de pessoa para pessoa. A experiência de célula é muito valiosa para desenvolver uma nova metodologia missionária. Por esta razão, igrejas que já se trasicionaram para se tornar igrejas em células, associaram-se com outras para enviar líderes que vão plantar a semente do evangelho em lugares não alcançados ao redor do mundo. &lt;br /&gt;Este modelo não precisa de agências missionárias. Trata-se de um contato direto entre a igreja que está enviando e a implantação de novas igrejas nas áreas alvo ( ou ajudar aqueles grupos de crentes que precisam de um mão ajudadora). Portanto não há custos administrativos para cobrir. O apoio financeiro da igreja vai até os missionários que estão no campo.&lt;br /&gt;Em 2005 o primeiro encontro de missionários da america latina da CCMN, ocorreu no Brasil , para o propósito de mexer com o envolvimento de missões nas igrejas da  America Latina. No nosso continente , quatro encontros já ocorreram. Os primeiros missionários já foram enviados e estão trabalhando entre as últimas pessoas alcançadas. Este é um método pioneiro, no qual é esperado levar à grandes resultados. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CCMN의 비전&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀교회 선교 네트웤(Cell Church Missionary Network) 은 벤홍 목사님의 사역을 통해서 아시아에서 태동한 선교 운동이다. 이 네트웤은 선교하는 법에 대한 혁신적인 개념으로 작동하고 있다. 가장 적게 다가간 나라들, 다른 말로 하면 복음에 가장 닫혀 있는 나라들을 대상으로 삼는다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이러한 나라들은 전통적인 선교 방법들을 허용하지 않기 때문에, 우리는 셀 전략을 취해서 집에서 집으로, 사람에서 사람으로 행한다. 셀 체험은 이 새로운 선교 방법을 발전시킴에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 이러한 이유로 해서, 셀교회로 이미 전환한 교회들이 서로 협력하여 지도자들을 파송하여, 불신 지역에 복음의 씨앗을 심을 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이 모델은 선교 에이전시가 필요치 않다. 파송하고 있는 교회와 타킷 지역에 새롭게 세워지는 교회들을 직접 연결한다(도움의 손길을 필요로 하는 신자들 그룹을 돕기). 그래서 그에 따라 행정적 비용이 들지 않는다. 교회으 재정적 후원은 현장 선교사들에게로 직접 간다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2005년에 제1회 CCMN 라틴 아메리카 선교사 컨설팅 대회가 브라질에서 열렸다. 라틴 아메리카 교회들이 선교에 동참하도록 힘을 실어주기 위해서 열렸다. 이미 4번의 컨설팅 대회가 열렸었다. 첫 선교사들이 이미 파송되었으며 가장 적게 다가간 지역에서 사역하고 있다. 많은 열매를 기대하는 개척자적인 방법이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2944655793592344378?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2944655793592344378/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2944655793592344378' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2944655793592344378'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2944655793592344378'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/09/la-vision-de-ccmn.html' title='LA VISIÓN DE CCMN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6007046158531740857</id><published>2011-09-08T06:06:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-08T06:08:23.779-07:00</updated><title type='text'>MISIONES HORIZONTALES Y VERTICALES</title><content type='html'>La misiones pueden comprenderse en un sentido horizontal y otro vertical. La misión en el sentido horizontal es la expansión territorial del evangelio. Se trata de alcanzar a los no alcanzados y llevarles el mensaje de salvación. Es sabido que la mayor parte de pueblos no alcanzados se ubican en la ventana 10/40.&lt;br /&gt;El modelo celular ha demostrado ser un sistema eficiente de penetración en muchos de esos países donde existen severas restricciones al anuncio del evangelio por los medios tradicionales. Las iglesias celulares son, desde esa perspectiva, un campo de entrenamiento para quienes serán llamados a esos países.&lt;br /&gt;En cuanto a las misiones en el sentido vertical, se trata de la extensión del evangelio pero en profundidad. Es pasar de alcanzar a las personas para hacerlos discípulos. Es un esfuerzo para que aquellos que ya escucharon la buenas nuevas, comiencen a vivir de acuerdo a ellas. &lt;br /&gt;En el sentido vertical, puede producirse la paradoja que los países más alcanzados en el sentido horizontal sean los menos evangelizados verticalmente. Y, a la inversa, puede ser que los menos alcanzados horizontalmente sean los que vivan en mayor profundidad el evangelio.&lt;br /&gt;En el sentido vertical, el modelo celular también juega un papel esencial. Es el mejor ambiente para hacer discípulos y para llevar a la práctica la verdad del evangelio. Por tales razones, el modelo celular y las misiones, en su doble aspecto, se encuentran estrechamente relacionadas. Las misiones son connaturales al trabajo celular y unen dos aspectos de la evangelización que nunca deberían separarse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Horizontal and vertical missions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Missions can be understood in a horizontal and in a vertical sence. The mission in the horizontal sence is the territorial expansion of the Gospel. It is about reaching the unreached and bringing them the message of salvation. It is known that most of the unreached groups of people are located in the 10/40 window.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cell model has proven to be an efficient penetration system in many of those countries where there are severe restrictions on the proclamation of the Gospel by the traditional means. Cell churches are, from that perspective, a training field for those who will be called to those countries.&lt;br /&gt;As for the missions in the vertical sence, it is the extension of the Gospel but in profundity. Is going from reaching the people to make them disciples. It is an effort so that those who have already heard the good news, start living according to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the vertical sence a paradox can be produced: that countries most reached in the horizontal sence be the least evangelized vertically. And, conversely, could be that the least reached horizontally live the Gospel in a greater depth.&lt;br /&gt;In the vertical sence, the cell model also plays an essential role. It is the best environment to make disciples and to take into practice the truth of the Gospel. For such reasons, the cell model and missions are closely related in its dual aspect. Missions are innate to the cell work and combine two aspects of evangelization that should never be separated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Missão Horizontal e Vertical&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As missões podem ser entendidas através de uma forma horizontal e outra vertical. A missão no sentido horizontal é a expansão territorial do Evangelho. Trata-se de alcançar os lugares inalcançáveis trazendo-lhes a mensagem da salvação. A maioria dos povos não alcançados estão localizados na janela 10/40.&lt;br /&gt;O modelo celular tem provado ser um sistema eficaz de penetração em muitos desses países onde existem restrições severas para a proclamação do Evangelho através dos meios tradicionais. Igrejas em células no mundo livre são veículos de treinamento para aqueles que são chamados para os países de acesso restrito.&lt;br /&gt;No sentido vertical, missão é a extensão do Evangelho, tornando-o mais profundo para os crentes comprometidos. Ao invés de apenas alcançar as pessoas com a boa notícia, as missões verticais ajudam os crentes a tornarem-se fortes discípulos de Cristo que realmente vivem as reivindicações do evangelho.&lt;br /&gt;Há um certo paradoxo entre as missões verticais e as horizontais. Alguns dos países mais "atingidos" no sentido horizontal também são os menos discipulados verticalmente. Por outro lado, aqueles de difícil acesso do Evangelho, por vezes, tem uma caminhada mais profunda, mais comprometida com Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;No sentido vertical, o modelo celular também desempenha um papel essencial. É o melhor ambiente para fazer discípulos e para ajudar aqueles discípulos a viverem as exigências do evangelho. Por estas razões, o modelo celular e o de missões estão intimamente relacionados. Missões são fundamentais para o trabalho celular e os aspectos horizontal e vertical não podem ser separados.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;수평적 그리고 수직적 선교&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;선교는 수평적 방식으로 그리고 수직적 방식으로 이해될 수 있다. 수평적 의미에서 선교는 복음의 영토적 확장이다. 미개척지역으로 가서 그들에게 구원의메시지를 전하는 것이다. 미개척지의 대부분이 10/40 윈도우에 위치해 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 모델은 복음 선포에 대해서 심각한 억압이 있는 많은 국가들에서도 효과적인 침노 시시스템이라는 것이 검증되었다. 자유 국가에서 셀교회들은 억압 국가라고 불리는 이들 지역을 위한 훈련 도구가 된다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;수직적 의미에서 선교라고 하는 것은, 더 깊고 더 헌신된 신자로서의 복음 확장이다. 복음을 사람들에게 전한다기 보다는 차라리, 수직적 선교는 이들 신자들을 도와 복음의 명령대로 살아가는 그리스도의 강한 제자들이 되게 하는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;수평적 선교와 수직적 선교 사이에 어떤 패러독스가 있다. 수평적 의미에서 가장 복음에 열려 있는 어떤 국가들은 수직적으로 최소한의 제자훈련만 되어 있다. 역으로, 다가가기 어려운 어떤 지역들도 때때로 더 깊고, 더 헌신된 사람들이 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;수직적 의미에서, 셀 모델은 또한 본질적인 역할을 감당한다. 제자를 삼고, 그들을 도와 복음의 명령대로 살아가게 하는 최상의 환경이 셀이다. 이러한 이유로 해서, 셀 모델과 선교는 밀접한 관계를 맺고 있다. 선교는 셀 사역의 핵심이며 선교의 수평적 그리고 수직적 측면은 나누어지지 말아야 할 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6007046158531740857?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6007046158531740857/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6007046158531740857' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6007046158531740857'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6007046158531740857'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/09/misiones-horizontales-y-verticales.html' title='MISIONES HORIZONTALES Y VERTICALES'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7115004854668055810</id><published>2011-09-01T06:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-01T06:18:56.326-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA VENTANA 4/14</title><content type='html'>A diferencia de otras ‘ventanas’ que se refieren a un espacio geográfico para las misiones, la ventana 4-14 se refiere a un segmento de edad de la población mundial. Estoy hablando de las personas que se encuentran entre los 4 y los 14 años de edad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los niños y jóvenes deberían ser uno de los grandes destinatarios del mensaje de salvación. Nos pasamos siempre repitiendo que ellos son el futuro de la iglesia cuando la verdad es que si ellos no son el presente de la iglesia ésta no tendrá futuro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El 50% de la población mundial se encuentra por debajo de los 25 años de edad y la tercera parte de ellos nunca han escuchado sobre Jesús. ¡Y muchos de ellos en nuestros países occidentales! Como niños, no se les ha brindado la atención debida. Porque, después de todo, solo son niños.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Frecuentemente, los niños han sido un mal necesario que las iglesias han tenido que sobrellevar. Pero basta reconocer el hecho que la mayor parte de cristianos creyeron en Jesús antes de cumplir los 18 años de edad para reorientar los esfuerzos hacia la ventana 4-14. Un segmento accesible, sensible, manejable y rico en posibilidades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Window 4-14&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unlike other “windows” that refer to a geographical space for missions, window 4-14 refers to an age segment of the world’s population. I’m talking about  people who are between 4 and 14 years of age.&lt;br /&gt;Children and youth should be one of the largest addressees of the message of salvation. We always keep on repeating that they are the future of the church, when the truth is that if they are not the present of the church, the church will have no future.&lt;br /&gt;50% of the world’s population is below age 25 and the third part of them have never heard about Jesus. And many of them in our western countries! Like children, have not been offered the right attention. Because, after all, they are just children.&lt;br /&gt;Often, children have been a necessary malum that churches have had to endure. But you only have to acknowledge the fact that most Christians  believed in Jesus before they were 18 years old, to redirect efforts toward the window 4-14. An accessible, responsive, manageable and rich in possibilities segment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Diferente de outras “janelas” que se referem a áreas geográficas com necessidade de missões, a janela 4-14 se refere a um segmento etário da população mundial. Estou falando sobre pessoas que tem idade entre 3 e 14 anos.&lt;br /&gt;Crianças e jovens deveriam ser um dos grandes focos da mensagem do evangelho. Nós continuamos repetindo que eles são o futuro da igreja, mas a verdade é que eles precisam ser o presente da igreja. Ou então, a igreja não terá futuro.&lt;br /&gt;50% da população mundial tem idade menor que 25 anos e um terço deles nunca ouviu falar de Jesus. E muitos deles vivem em nossos países ocidentais!&lt;br /&gt;O fato é que a maioria dos cristãos creu em Jesus antes dos 18 anos de idade. Esse fato deveria redirecionar nossos esforços para a janela 4-14. Frequentemente a igreja vê crianças como um ministério que tem que suportar. Na realidade, as crianças são especiais para Deus, e cruciais para a sobrevivência da igreja. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TRADUCCIÓN AL COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;윈도우 4-14&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;선교의 지리적 위치를 언급하는 다른 "창"과는 달리, 윈도우 4-14는 세계 인구의 연령대를 말한다. 나는 4-14살 사이의 사람들을 이야기하고 있는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;어린이와 청소년들은 복음 메시지의 가장 큰 포커스들 중 하나가 되어야 할 것이다. 그들은 교회의 미래임을 거듭 말하는 바이다. 하지만 진리는 이것이니, 그들은 교회의 현재가 되어야만 한다. 즉, 미래라는 것은 교회엔 없다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;세계 인구의 50%가 25세 이하이다. 그들 중 상당 숫자가 결코 예수님에 대해서 들어보지 못했다. 그들 중 많은 숫자가 서양국가에서 살고 있다!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;대부분의 그리스도인들이 18살이 되기 전에 예수님을 믿는다는 것이 사실이다. 이 사실은 우리의 수고를 윈도우 4-14로 재조정시켜야 한다는 말일 것이다. 교회는 자주 어린이를 참고 사역해야 할 대상으로 봐 왔다. 실제로는, 어린이는 하나님께 특별하며, 교회 생존에도 중요하다. &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7115004854668055810?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7115004854668055810/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7115004854668055810' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7115004854668055810'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7115004854668055810'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/09/la-ventana-414.html' title='LA VENTANA 4/14'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2965961334742992856</id><published>2011-08-25T20:58:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-25T20:59:52.275-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA VISITA DEL PASTOR A LAS CÉLULAS</title><content type='html'>El pastor de una iglesia celular pequeña tiene la gran oportunidad de involucrarse en el trabajo celular de manera directa. Además de enseñar los valores y principios de su modelo celular, puede visitar cada una de las células de su iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Para los miembros de su iglesia, la visita de su pastor en las células les demuestra el aprecio que él tiene por este trabajo. Además, les enseña de la importancia que las células tienen para la vida cristiana.&lt;br /&gt;En una ocasión escuché que Larry Stockstill, de Baton Rouge, visita una célula cada semana. Claro, su iglesia es ya tan numerosa que probablemente no terminará de visitarlas todas. Y, si lo hace, le tomará varios años completar el ciclo. Pero, ¡Cuán inspirador es para sus miembros recibir la visita de su pastor en las células! Mientras la iglesia celular es pequeña, el pastor tiene la gran ventaja de hacer estas visitas tan motivadoras a cada una de sus células.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Pastor’s visit to the cells	&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A small cell church’s pastor has the great opportunity to get directly involve in the cell work. Besides teaching his cell model’s values and principles, he can visit each of his church’s cells.&lt;br /&gt;For the members of his church, their pastor’s visit in the cells shows them the appreciation he has for this work. In addition it teaches them the importance of cells for the Christian life. &lt;br /&gt;In one occasion I heard that Larry Stockstill, from Baton Rouge, visits a cell each week. Obviosly, his church is already so numerous that he will probably not finish visiting them all. And if he does, it will take him several years to complete the cycle. But, how inspiring it is for his members to receive their pastor’s visit in the cells! While the cell church is still small, the pastor has the great advantage to make these so motivating visits to each one of his cells.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;작은 교회에서 셀 방문&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;작은 셀교회의 목사님은 각각의 셀생활에 직접 참여해 볼 수 있는 환상적인 기회를 갖고 있다. 셀사역의 가치들과 원리들을 가르치는  동시에, 작은 교회의 담임목사님은 각각의 셀들을 방문할 수 있다. 셀 멤버들은 담임 목사님께 크게 감사할 것이다. 셀 방문은 또한 셀 사역에 대한 목회자의 헌신을 잘 보여줄 수 있다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나는 루이지애나, 베이커에 있는 베다니 세계 기도 센터 교회의 담임목사님, 래리 스탁스틸 목사님이 매주 다른 셀들을 방문한다는 소리를 들었다. 교회는 너무 크기에, 그는 모든 셀들을 방문할 수 없을 것이다. 그리한다면, 7년이 걸릴 것이다. 하지만 셀 멤버들이 그의 방문에 얼마나 많은 영감이 되겠는가! 셀교회가 여전히 작더라도, 목사님은 각각의 셀들을 보다 자주 방문하고, 그 과정에서 각각의 셀들에게 동기를 부여하는 크나큰 유익이 있다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2965961334742992856?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2965961334742992856/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2965961334742992856' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2965961334742992856'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2965961334742992856'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/08/la-visita-del-pastor-las-celulas.html' title='LA VISITA DEL PASTOR A LAS CÉLULAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4752711955615275959</id><published>2011-08-18T15:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-18T15:22:26.900-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA VENTAJA DE PLANTAR UNA IGLESIA CELULAR</title><content type='html'>La ventaja principal de plantar una iglesia comenzando con una célula es que todas las personas que conozcan a Jesús a partir de allí, crecerán en un ambiente totalmente celular. Eso implica que los nuevos cristianos serán formados para el liderazgo y tendrán una pasión por la multiplicación celular.&lt;br /&gt;No es necesaria una transición porque las personas nacen ya en un ambiente completamente celular. Requiere mucho menos esfuerzo y tiempo aprender mandarín en China que aprenderlo cuando se es adulto y en occidente. De igual manera, plantar pequeñas iglesias celulares ahorran tiempo y esfuerzo en una tarea que, de otra manera, requerirá tiempo, recursos, poder de convencimiento y un buen presupuesto para tomar café con los directivos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The advantage of planting a cell church.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main advantage of planting a church starting with one cell is that all people that come to know Jesus from then on, will grow in a totally cellular environment. That means that the new Christians will be trained for leadership and will have a passion for cell multiplication.&lt;br /&gt;A transition is not necessary since people are already being born in a completely cellular environment. Requires much less time and effort to learn Mandarin in China than to learn it when you are an adult and living in the West. In the same way, planting small cell churches saves time and effort on a task that otherwise, will require time, resources, power of persuasion and a good budget to take coffee with the directors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀교회 개척에서 유익&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가 &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하나의 셀로 시작하는 교회 개척에서 주된 유익은 예수님을 믿기 시작하는 처음부터 모든 사람들이 셀 분위기 속에서 성장할 것이라는 점이다. 이것은 새로운 신자들이 리더십을 위해 훈련 받게 될 것이며, 셀 번식을 향한 열정을 가지게 될 것이라는 의미이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;사람들이 셀 분위기 속에서 이미 잉태되어졌기에 전환은 불필요하다. 예를 들어, 당신은 성인이며 서양에서 살고 있으면서 중국어를 배우기 위한 시간과 수고가 중국에서 살고 있을 때보다 더 많은 시간과 수고를 요구한다. 같은 식으로, 작은 셀교회 개척은 시간과 수고를 절약시켜 줄 것이다. &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4752711955615275959?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4752711955615275959/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4752711955615275959' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4752711955615275959'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4752711955615275959'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/08/la-ventaja-de-plantar-una-iglesia.html' title='LA VENTAJA DE PLANTAR UNA IGLESIA CELULAR'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1493599251954663156</id><published>2011-08-11T11:15:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-11T11:17:02.587-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS MEGA IGLESIAS Y LA MUERTE AL YO</title><content type='html'>Ser pastor de una mega iglesia es un don que Dios otorga. Lo otorga a personas que ha preparado para ese fin. La preparación consiste, fundamentalmente, en la muerte al yo.&lt;br /&gt;Ninguna iglesia puede crecer más que su pastor. Y para que el pastor crezca debe comenzar por la negación propia como fundamento básico. La muerte al yo se produce cuando se viven sucesivas noches del alma. El camino no es fácil, mas bien es doloroso. Pero si hablamos de una mega iglesia sostenible en el tiempo no hay otra alternativa que la de atravesar el valle de sombra de muerte una y otra vez.&lt;br /&gt;La muerte al yo deja al hombre en un estado de postración. Y no habrá otra opción más que la de dar toda la gloria a Dios. Cuando se alcanza ese reconocimiento profundo es cuando el hombre está preparado para guiar una mega iglesia. Lo hará con temor y temblor, sabiendo que él no es nada más que polvo recogido por la mano de Dios y al cual sopló aliento de vida.&lt;br /&gt;Tal dependencia absoluta de la gracia de Dios será clave para perseverar en esa sagrada labor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The mega churches and dying to the flesh.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being a pastor of a megachurch is a gift that God concedes. It is awarded to people who He has prepared for this purpose. The preparation consists mainly of dying to self daily.&lt;br /&gt;No church can grow more than its pastor. And for the pastor to grow, he must start with his self-denial as basic foundation. The death of the flesh occurs after living successive nights of the soul. The road is not easy, it is rather painful. But if we are talking about a sustainable megachurch over the time there is no other alternative but to go through the valley of the shadow of death over and over again.&lt;br /&gt;Death to the flesh leaves man in a state of prostration. And there will be no other choice but to give all glory to God. When you reach that deep understanding is when a man is prepared to lead a megachurch. He will do it with fear and trembling, knowing that he is nothing but dust collected by the hand of God and to whom He breathed the breath of life.&lt;br /&gt;Such absolute dependence on God's grace will be key to persevere in that holy work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;메가 교회와 육신을 죽이기&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;메가 교회의 목사가 된다는 것은 하나님만이 주실 수 있는 은사이다. 하나님께서 이 목적을 위해 준비시킨 자들에게 주어지는 것이다. 그 준비는 주로 자아를 날마다 죽이는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;교회는 그 교회 목사님보다 더 성장할 수 없다. 목회자가 성장하기 위해서는, 기본적인 토대로서 자아 부인으로 시작되어야 한다. 육신의 죽음은 영혼의 어두운 밤을 성공적으로 걸어나온 후에야 일어난다. 그 길은 쉽지 않다. 차라리 고통스럽다 하겠다. 성장하는 메가교회를 인도하는 것에 대해서 이야기하자면, 거듭 반복적으로 죽음의 골짜기를 통과하는 것 외에는 다른 방도가 없다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;육신에 대해 죽는 것은 탈진, 엎드림의 상태가 되는 것이다. 모든 영광을 하나님께 드리는 것 외에는 다른 선택이 없을 것이다. 이 깊은 명철에 이른 후에야, 지도자는 메가 교회를 인도할 준비가 된다. 지도자는 그리고 나서 도려움과 떨림으로 이를 행할 것이다. 그는 자신이 하나님의 손 안에 있는 한 줌의 먼지에 불과하다는 점을 깨달으며, 새생명이 하나님에 의해서 주어짐을 안 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하나님의 은혜에 이처럼 전적으로 의존하는 것이 하나님의 사역을 인내하게 계속 수행케 하는 키이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1493599251954663156?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1493599251954663156/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1493599251954663156' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1493599251954663156'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1493599251954663156'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/08/las-mega-iglesias-y-la-muerte-al-yo.html' title='LAS MEGA IGLESIAS Y LA MUERTE AL YO'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5730019576562563425</id><published>2011-08-04T08:35:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-04T08:36:45.084-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS MEGA IGLESIAS Y LA INFLUENCIA POLÍTICA</title><content type='html'>Normalmente se piensa que la política no es competencia de los cristianos. Pero, todos nos lamentamos de lo mal que van las cosas por falta de principios y de integridad. La política debe ser asumida por lo que debe ser: un área de servicio para los ciudadanos. Servir honestamente es lo que mejor pueden hacer los cristianos y, por ello, son ellos los que deben enseñar a la sociedad lo que es correcto.&lt;br /&gt;La política no necesariamente debe ser partidaria y electoral. Los cristianos pueden influir mucho en política desde su condición de hijos de Dios. De hecho la iglesia ya se pronuncia en temas tales como el aborto, la corrupción, la pena de muerte y otros temas de carácter ético. Pero todos esos temas tienen un gran peso político en nuestras sociedades. Quien toma en serio el evangelio no podrá sustraerse de adoptar posiciones con implicaciones políticas.&lt;br /&gt;Desde esa perspectiva, las mega iglesias juegan un papel muy importante en la tarea de ser luz y sal a un país. No es que el tamaño determine la calidad de esa influencia sino que, desde el punto de vista de los políticos, una iglesia muy numerosa es mejor escuchada y tenida en cuenta.&lt;br /&gt;Desde una mega iglesia se puede sensibilizar a los políticos en cuanto a temas que son trascendentes para la causa del evangelio. Y también se puede, con su influencia ética, disuadir a los políticos de ciertas decisiones incorrectas. Esta es una de las ventajas de ser una mega iglesia celular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The mega churches and the political influence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is normally thought that politics is out of Christian’s competence. But we all bewail how bad things are going because of the lack of principles and integrity. Politics must be assumed for what it should be: a service area for citizens. The best thing Christians could do is to serve with honesty and that is way, they are who should teach society what’s right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Politics do not have to be necessarily partisan and electoral. Christians from their condition as of children of God can influence greatly in politics. In fact the church has already spoken on issues such as the abortion, corruption, death penalty and other ethical issues. But all of those issues have a great political weight in our societies.&lt;br /&gt;Whoever takes the Gospel seriously won’t be able to escape from adopting positions with political implications.&lt;br /&gt;From that perspective, mega churches play a very important role in the task of being salt and light to a country. It is not the size which determines the quality of that influence, but from the politicians point of view a very numerous church is better  heard and taken into account.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From a mega church you can sensitize politicians about issues that are transcendente to the cause of the Gospel. And with your ethical influence, you can also deter politicians from certain wrong decisions. This is one of the advantages of being a mega cell church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;메가교회와 정치적 영향력&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;정치는 기독교인의 역량 혹은 영향력의 원 밖에 일이라고 우리는 자주 생각한다. 하지만 정부가 원칙과 성실함의 부족으로 인해서 일을 잘못 처리되는 것을 보면서 우리 모두가 비통해 한다. 실제로, 정치는 시민을 위한 서비스 영역이다. 그리스도인들이 할 수 있는 최상의 일은 정직하게 섬기는 것이며, 그렇게 해서 옳은 일을 사회에 가르친다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;정치는 편파적이어서는 안 된다. 하나님의 자녀로서, 그리스도인들은 정치 영역에 강력한 영향을 줄 수 있다. 사실, 교회는 이미 낙태, 부패, 사형제도, 그리고 다른 정치적 이슈들에 대해서 목소리를 내고 있다. 이러한 이슈들 모두가 우리 사회에서 정치적 이슈들이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;복음에서 정치적 의미를 누가 배제시킬 수 있겠는가. 이러한 견해에서 보면, 메가교회는 나라 전체에 빛과 소금이 되는 임무에 있어서 매우 중요한 역할을 감당하고 있다. 영향력의 질을 결정하는 것이 크기가 아니라, 정치 견해에서 나온다. 대형 교회는 많은 무게와 영향력을 가지고 있으며, 이를 고려해야 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;메가교회는 복음과 민접한 이슈들에 대해서 정치가들을 도울 수 있다. 또한 잘못된 결정을 내리지 못하도록 억제할 수도 있다. 이것이 메가교회가 주는 유익들 중 하나이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5730019576562563425?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5730019576562563425/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5730019576562563425' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5730019576562563425'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5730019576562563425'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/08/las-mega-iglesias-y-la-influencia.html' title='LAS MEGA IGLESIAS Y LA INFLUENCIA POLÍTICA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4292433059482012777</id><published>2011-07-28T05:41:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-28T05:42:43.977-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA FAMILIA DE MISIÓN ELIM</title><content type='html'>Cada vez que al hablar del trabajo celular la discusión se encamina al debate entre mega-iglesias o iglesias sencillas, se está perdiendo el sentido principal de las células.&lt;br /&gt;Las células no son un método para desarrollar mega-iglesias sino que es el regreso al modelo de iglesia del Nuevo Testamento en donde se rescatan valores tales como los del sacerdocio universal de los cristianos, la edificación mutua y el ejercicio de la evangelización.&lt;br /&gt;Estos valores son la verdadera riqueza del trabajo celular. Las dimensiones de la celebración responden a las particularidades de la ciudad, a los dones otorgados a un predicador y a la visión particular de cada ministro.&lt;br /&gt;En Misión Elim no todo se trata de mega-iglesias. De alrededor de 125 iglesias que forman nuestra Misión, solamente dos son mega-iglesias con más de 10,000 miembros. Otras tres rondan los 2,000 miembros. Unas cuatro andan entre 500 y 1,000 miembros. El resto oscila entre 75 a 500 miembros. &lt;br /&gt;Pero sin importar la dimensión de la membresía, todas ellas viven los valores y principios del trabajo celular y eso le da todo el sentido al esfuerzo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Elim Mission’s family&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Each time when talking about cell work if the discussion heads to a debate between mega-churches or simple churches, you're missing the primary meaning of cells.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cells are not a method to develop mega-churches, but are the return to the New Testament church model where values such as of the universal priesthood of Christians, mutual edification and the practice of evangelization are rescued.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These values are the true wealth of cell work. The celebration’s dimensions respond to the particularities of the city, the gifts granted to a preacher and the particular vision of each minister.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Elim Mission not all is about mega-churches. From about 125 churches that make up our mission, only two are mega-churches with over 10,000 members. Other three have around 2,000 members. About four have around 500 to 1,000 members. The rest range from 75 to 500 members.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But regardless the size of the membership, all of them live the values and principles of cell work and that gives whole meaning to the effort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀교회의 진짜 본질로 돌아가라&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀에 대해 이야기할 때, 메가교회와 심플 셀교회 사이에서 끊임없이 논쟁 중에 있다면, 셀의 우선적인 의미를 놓치고 있는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀은 메가교회로 커나가는 방법도 아니라, 만인제사장직, 서로 세움, 전도 실천 등의 가치들을 다시 강조하고, 심지어 회복시키고자 하는 신약교회의 모델로 돌아가는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이러한 가치들은 셀 사역의 진정한 의미이며, 셀 사역에서 오는 크나큰 자산이다. 축제예배의 크기(셀들이 한데 모이는)는 도시의 특수성, 담임 목사님의 은사, 그리고 교회와 사역의 특별한 비전에 달려 있다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림 선교의 비전은 메가교회가 아니라, 실제로는 우리의 사명을 이루는 125개의 교회들과 10,000명이 넘는 두 개의 메가교회에서 나온다. 세 교회가 약 2,000명 정도이며, 4개의 교회는 500에서 1,000명 사이이고, 나머니는 75-500명 사이이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;교인 숫자에 상관없이, 우리 모두는 셀 사역의 가치와 원리대로 살아가며, 그것이 우리가 하는 일에 진정한 의무를 부여하는 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4292433059482012777?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4292433059482012777/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4292433059482012777' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4292433059482012777'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4292433059482012777'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/07/la-familia-de-mision-elim.html' title='LA FAMILIA DE MISIÓN ELIM'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7702289014417564495</id><published>2011-07-21T05:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-21T05:36:05.204-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CONOCIMIENTO, CONOCIMIENTO ES LA CLAVE.</title><content type='html'>En mi experiencia he notado que la razón principal para que una transición fracase es la falta de conocimiento o un conocimiento inadecuado.&lt;br /&gt;El pastor de la iglesia debe comprender muy bien cuáles son los fundamentos bíblicos del trabajo celular y debe tener claridad de los valores y los principios. La mayor parte de transiciones fracasan porque el pastor de la iglesia no posee una conciencia clara de hacia dónde se dirige y qué es lo que debe esperar del futuro.&lt;br /&gt;En un segundo momento, es muy importante que el pastor comparta su conocimiento con la iglesia. Es mejor ser repetitivo y ser acusado de enseñar siempre lo mismo, que suponer que las personas ya saben las cosas y caminar sobre una base ficticia.&lt;br /&gt;La información debe darse profusamente, como parte principal del servicio. No como una información marginal en un salón pequeño de la iglesia para los interesados y mucho menos reducirla a una sección en el boletín dominical. La enseñanza debe ocupar el mensaje principal el día domingo en el púlpito y debe hacerlo por todo el tiempo que sea necesario.&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente, también deben estar muy bien informados los colaboradores del pastor. Como líderes de la congregación, ellos son clave en la aceptación del nuevo modelo. Es altamente recomendable que ellos vivan la experiencia de la vida en células para que puedan adquirir una perspectiva correcta del trabajo.&lt;br /&gt;Si se cuida de fortalecer, ilustrar, repetir y volver a repetir la enseñanza se estará evitando uno de los principales obstáculos para una transición efectiva.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Knowledge, knowledge is the key&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my experience, I have noticed that the main reason for a transition to fail is the lack of knowledge or an inadequate knowledge.&lt;br /&gt;The church’s pastor must understand very well what the biblical foundations of cell work are and must be clear about the values and principles. Most transitions fail because the church’s pastor doesn’t have a clear awareness of where he is going and what is to be expected from the future.&lt;br /&gt;In a second moment, it is very important to have the pastor share his knowledge with the church. It is better to be repetitive and accused of teaching always the same thing, than to assume that people know the things already and walk on a fictitious basis.&lt;br /&gt;The information should be profusely given, as the main part of the service. Not as marginal information in a small room of the church for those interested only, much less reduce it to a section in the Sunday bulletin. The teaching should pervade the Sunday’s main message in the pulpit and must do so as long as it is necessary.&lt;br /&gt;Finally, the pastor’s collaborators must be also well informed. As leaders of the congregation, they are key in the acceptance of the new model. It is highly recommended that they live the experience of life in cells so they can acquire a proper perspective of the work.&lt;br /&gt;If you see to strengthen, illustrate, repeat and repeat all over again the teaching you will be avoiding one of the main obstacles to an effective transition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;지식, 지식이 열쇠이다&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나의 경험상, 전환에 실패하는 주된 이유는 지식 부족 혹은 잘못된 지식이라고 본다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;교회의 담임 목사님이 셀사역의 성경적 토대가 무엇인지를 깊이 이해하고 있어야 한다. 또한 그 가치들과 원리들에 대해서도 분명한 이해가 있어야 한다. 대부분의 전환 실패는 교회 목사님 자신이 어디로 가고 있는지, 어디로 가기를 원하는지에 대한 분명한 그림이 없기 때문에 생겨난다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;목사님은 그 지식을 교회와 함께 공유하는 것이 중요하다. 사람들이 셀 사역의 가치들을 이미 알고 있다고 단정 짓을 때 실상은 알지만 하고 행하지 않을 것보다 "고장난 음반처럼"(같은 말을 자꾸 되풀이하는 사람) 되는 것이 더 낫다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나는 셀 사역의 가치들과 원리들이 교회 전체에게 가르쳐져야 한다고 믿는다, 특정한 "리더들" 그룹이나 교회 게시판의 한 공간에보다 할애되기 보다는. 셀 가르침은 교인들의 심장에 진정으로 불이 붙을 때까지 주일 설교의 주된 메시지 속으로 놓아 들어가야 할 것이다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;리더십(목사님들, 장로님들, 셀 리더들, 등등) 또한 정보를 잘 습득하고 있어야 한다. 회중 앞에 서는 자들로서, 이들 지도자들은 새로운 모델을 수용함에 있어서 열쇠가 되는 사람들이다. 그들은 셀 라이프를 살아가면서 셀 사역의 올바른 면들을 수용하게 될 것이다. 나는 이를 매우 추천하는 바이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;지식 부족은 성공적인 전환의 장애가 될 수 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해서, 교회는 가르치고, 묘사하고, 적용하고, 그리고는 셀의 가치들과 원리들이 교회의 새로운 방식이 될 때까지 계속 되풀이해야 한다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7702289014417564495?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7702289014417564495/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7702289014417564495' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7702289014417564495'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7702289014417564495'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/07/conocimiento-conocimiento-es-la-clave.html' title='CONOCIMIENTO, CONOCIMIENTO ES LA CLAVE.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2950179829434612907</id><published>2011-07-13T23:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-13T23:48:17.323-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA TRANSICIÓN DE IGLESIA ELIM</title><content type='html'>En Elim la transición de una iglesia de programas a una iglesia celular se realizó de una manera muy pronta, en tan solo unas semanas. La transición fue exitosa. ¿Qué elementos hicieron posible una buena transición en tan corto tiempo?&lt;br /&gt;Menciono los siguientes:&lt;br /&gt;• La iglesia no tenía una organización congregacional. Por tanto, no existía la costumbre de someter a la opinión general las decisiones que se tomaban.&lt;br /&gt;• El Pastor tenía un liderazgo muy fuerte. Se había ganado el respeto y la admiración de la congregación. Lo que él sugería se veía con mucho agrado y, generalmente, sin cuestionamientos.&lt;br /&gt;• La iglesia vivía una situación de efervescencia espiritual. En nueve años había pasado de 9 a 3,000 miembros y todos querían ir por más.&lt;br /&gt;• Los libros del Pastor Cho habían llegado cuatro años antes a El Salvador y ellos habían provocado un impacto en el país. Se veía a la iglesia de Cho como un modelo que, por entonces, nadie sabía en qué consistía exactamente, pero que todos querían reproducir.&lt;br /&gt;A pesar de todo lo anterior, no se puede decir que la transición se hizo sin incidentes. Sí hubo personas que decidieron salirse de la congregación. Otros resistieron por algún tiempo el trabajo celular. Pero esos casos fueron tan pocos que casi nadie los advirtió.&lt;br /&gt;Los resultados se darían tan pronto que nadie dudó que se había tomado la mejor decisión. En el primer año como iglesia celular se pasó de 3,000 a 10,000 miembros. Ese fruto fue el mejor cierre a ese corto período de transición.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The transition in Elim Church&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The transition in Elim from a church of programs to a cell church was promptly done, in just a few weeks. The transition was successful. What elements made a good transition possible in such a short time?&lt;br /&gt;I will mention the following ones:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• The church did not have a congregational organization. Therefore, there was no practice of submitting the decisions that were taken to the general opinion.&lt;br /&gt;• The Pastor had a very strong leadership. He had earned the congregation’s respect and admiration. What he suggested was seen with affability and usually without questioning.&lt;br /&gt;• The church lived a situation of spiritual effervescence. In nine years it had passed from 9 to 3,000 members and they all wanted to go for more.&lt;br /&gt;• Pastor Cho’s books had arrived to El Salvador four years earlier and they had caused an impact in the country. Pastor Cho's church was seen as a model, which at that time, nobody knew exactly in what it consisted, but all wanted to reproduce.&lt;br /&gt;Despite all of the above, you can not say that the transition went without any incidents. Yes, there were people who decided to leave the congregation. Others resisted the cell work for some time. But those cases were so few that hardly anyone noticed them.&lt;br /&gt;The results came so soon that no one doubted the best decision had been made. In the first year as a cell church it went from 3,000 to 10,000 members. To that short period of transition that fruit was the best closing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회의 전환&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회가 프로그램 교회에서 셀교회로 전환이 신속히 이루어졌다, 그것도 단지 몇 주만에. 전환은 성공적이었다. 그토록 짧은 시간 안에 전환이 가능했던 몇 가지 요소들은 무엇이었는가?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나는 다음과 같이 언급할 수 있다:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 교회는 회중적 조직이 없었다. 그러므로 일반 여론에 밀려 결정들이 번복되는 일도 없었다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 목사님은 매우 강한 리더십을 가지고 있었다. 그는 회중의 존경과 찬사를 받고 있었다. 그가 제안한 것들은 상냥하게 받아들여지고, 보통은 의문제기 없이 받아들여졌다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 교회는 영적 감격의 시대를 살고 있었다. 9년만에 교인이 9명에서 3,000명으로 성장하였다. 그들 모두 더 성장하기를 원했다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- 조용기 목사님의 책들이 엘살바도르에 이보다 4년전에 도착했었다. 그 책들은 충격적이었다. 조용기 목사님의 교회를 모델로 삼았다. 그 당시에는, 아무도 셀교회가 무엇인지 정확히 몰랐다. 하지만 모두가 복제하기를 원했다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;위의 모든 것에도 불구하고, 전환은 어떠한 사건들도 없이 이루어진다고 말할 수는 없다. 그렇다. 교회를 떠나기로 결정한 사람들이 있었다. 어떤 이들은 한동안 셀 사역을 거부하였다. 하지만 그러한 경우는 소수였기에, 어떠한 사람도 그들에게 주목하는 일이 거의 없었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;그 결과는 금방 나타났다. 최상의 결정을 내렸다는 점을 아무도 의심하지 않았다. 셀교회로서 첫 해에 3,000명에서 10,000명으로 성장하였다. 그토록 짧은 기간의 전환으로도 열매는 최상이었다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2950179829434612907?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2950179829434612907/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2950179829434612907' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2950179829434612907'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2950179829434612907'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/07/la-transicion-de-iglesia-elim.html' title='LA TRANSICIÓN DE IGLESIA ELIM'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5774517038508555305</id><published>2011-07-07T05:27:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-07-07T05:28:44.689-07:00</updated><title type='text'>METAS FINANCIERAS DE LAS CÉLULAS</title><content type='html'>Sin duda que las ofrendas que se recogen en las células son muy importantes para las finanzas de la iglesia. Cuando surgió la oportunidad de comprar la última frecuencia disponible de televisión de cobertura nacional que había en El Salvador, la iglesia tomó un gran crédito bancario. La cuota mensual suponía una carga bastante alta para las finanzas de la iglesia. Pero, un año después, surgió la oportunidad de comprar 14 hectáreas de tierra. El precio era una verdadera oferta pero la iglesia ya había llegado a su límite de capacidad de pago.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, como en otras ocasiones, decidimos echar mano de nuestros líderes de células. Lo que hicimos fue dividir la cuota mensual entre la cantidad de líderes. Eso significa dos dólares por cada célula a la semana. Dado que la asistencia promedio en nuestras células de adultos es de 9, basta con que cada miembro de la célula aporte veinticinco centavos de dólar a la semana para completar el pago.&lt;br /&gt;De esa manera, llevamos ya cerca de cinco años cancelando el préstamo y ya pagamos más de la mitad. Creo que con el trabajo esforzado de cada líder terminaremos de pagar sin mayor dificultad. Tales cosas no habrían sido posibles sin un compromiso financiero entre las células y la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells’ financial goals&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that the offerings gathered in cells are very important to the finances of the church. When the opportunity to purchase the last available TV frequency of national coverage in El Salvador came up, the church took a big bank loan. The monthly fee involved a rather high burden on the finances of the church. But a year later, the opportunity to buy 14 hectares of land came up. The price was a real offer, but the church had already reached its ability to pay limit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, as on other occasions, we decided to draw on our cell leaders. What we did is that we split the monthly fee among the number of leaders. That means two dollars a week per each cell. Since the average attendance in our adult’s cells is of 9, the contribution of twenty five dollar cents per week from each cell member is enough to complete the payment.&lt;br /&gt;Thus, we are close to five years now paying the loan and we have already paid off more than half. I believe that with each leader´s exerted work we will finish to pay it without much difficulty. Such things would not have been possible without a financial commitment between the cells and the church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀을 통해서 재정적 의무를 채우기&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 헌금은 교회의 재정에 매우 중요하다는 점은 의심의 여지가 없다. 우리 교회에서, 엘살바도르 전역으로 TV 방송할 기회가 찾아왔을 때, 우리는 은행으로부터 큰 돈을 빌렸다. 이 기회를 놓치고 싶지 않았기 때문이다. 매달 비용이 교회에는 큰 재정적 부담이었다. 1년 후, 14 헥타르의 토지를 구매할 기회가 생겼다. 가격은 적절했지만 교회는 이미 많은 빚을 지고 있었다. 우리는 어떻게 하였는가?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;우리의 셀 리더들을 참여시키기로 하였다. 우리는 매달 비용을 셀 리더들에게 나누어주었다. 이것은 각각의 셀그룹들이 우리의 재정적 의무를 채우기 위해서 매주 2 달러씩을 기여해야 할 것이라는 의미이다. 각각의 셀들은 평균 9명으로 이루어져 있다. 그래서 이것은 각각의 멤버들이 25센트씩을 책임져 주어야 한다는 의미이다. 각각의 셀 멤버들이 25센트씩 기여한다면, 우리는 빚을 갚을 수 있을 것이었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;대출을 갚은지 5년이 되었다. 우리는 이미 대출 받은 돈의 절반을 갚았다. 각각의 리더들의 수고로 인해서, 우리는 큰 어려움 없이 빚을 청산할 것이라고 믿는다. 이러한 일들은 각각의 셀들의 재정적 헌신이 없다면, 불가능했을 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5774517038508555305?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5774517038508555305/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5774517038508555305' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5774517038508555305'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5774517038508555305'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/07/metas-financieras-de-las-celulas.html' title='METAS FINANCIERAS DE LAS CÉLULAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-617865059983668049</id><published>2011-06-23T21:31:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-23T21:32:57.353-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS FINANZAS Y EL NOMBRAMIENTO DE NUEVOS PASTORES</title><content type='html'>Normalmente no llevamos en la iglesia estadísticas de cuánto dinero recoge un líder o un supervisor. Consecuentemente, la recaudación financiera no es un factor que se tenga en cuenta a la hora de promover a una persona a la posición de pastor. No habría manera de demostrar que una persona ha sido o no efectiva en el aspecto financiero.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, de manera indirecta, es verdad que las finanzas van implícitas en cada promoción. Las ofrendas son proporcionales a la cantidad de células de que se dispone. A mayor cantidad de células es lógico pensar que habrá mayor recaudación de ofrendas. Siendo la multiplicación uno de los factores más importantes a la hora de seleccionar a un nuevo pastor, con ella, va también la multiplicación de las ofrendas. Aunque no se lleve cuenta de ello.&lt;br /&gt;Por ese motivo, es que anteriormente expresé que el mismo desarrollo de las células va creando la base para incorporar nuevos pastores al equipo de trabajo. No hay que anticiparse a los hechos pensando en cómo la iglesia enfrentará el tema de un nuevo salario. Cuando se necesite un nuevo pastor, será solamente porque hay más personas participando de la vida cristiana en la congregación. Una de esas participaciones es el ofrendar. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Finances and the appointment of new ministers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the church we normally do not keep statistics of the amount of money a leader or a supervisor gathers. Consequently, the financial recovery is not a factor taken into account when promoting a person to the position of pastor. There would be no way to prove that a person has been financially effective or not.&lt;br /&gt;But, indirectly, it is true that the finances are implicit in each promotion. The offerings are proportional to the amount of cells you have. The greater the number of cells, it is logical to think there will be a greater collection of offerings. Since the multiplication is one of the most important factors when selecting a new pastor, implied in it is also the multiplication of offerings. Even though we do not keep track of it.&lt;br /&gt;For that reason, I had previously expressed that the same cell development creates the basis to incorporate new pastors to the team work. We must not anticipate to the facts thinking on how the church will face the issue of a new salary. If a new pastor is needed, it will be only because more people are participating of the Christian life in the congregation. Offering is one way of participating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;새로운 사역을 위한 재정과 인력 충원&lt;br /&gt;마리오베가&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서, 우리는 보통 리더나 감독에게 금전 상태의 통계를 내지 않는다. 이는 결국, 재정적 회복은 목회 자리에 오를 때까지는 고려되는 사항이 아니다. 어떤 사람이 재정적으로 건전한지 아닌지를 검증할 방법이 없었다.&lt;br /&gt;하지만, 간접적으로, 재정은 각각의 리더십 진급에 포함되어 있다는 것도 사실이다. 헌금은 어떤 특정 네트웩에 셀이 얼마나 있는지에 비례한다. 셀 수자가 클수록, 헌금의 양도 더 늘어날 것이라는 것이 논리적인 이치이다. 번식은 새로운 목회자를 뽑을 때 가장 중요한 요소들 중 하나이기에, 헌금의 증가도함축되어 있다, 심지어 그 통계를 역추적하지 않는다 할지라도. &lt;br /&gt;이전에도 언급했듯이, 셀 성장은 새로운 목회자들을 목양 팀에 통합함에 있어서 기본적인 잣대로 쓰인다. 셀 성장은 자연스럽게 새로운 목회자를 유지시키는데 필요한 새로운 사례비를 제공할 것이다. 더 많은 사람들이 교회의 신앙생활에 참여하게되고, 헌금이 그 참여 방법의 하나가 될 것이고, 이런식으로 하나님은 재정을 공급하실 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-617865059983668049?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/617865059983668049/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=617865059983668049' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/617865059983668049'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/617865059983668049'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/06/las-finanzas-y-el-nombramiento-de.html' title='LAS FINANZAS Y EL NOMBRAMIENTO DE NUEVOS PASTORES'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1742412801466564650</id><published>2011-06-16T22:13:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-16T22:14:35.955-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS OFRENDAS EN LAS CASAS</title><content type='html'>Como lo he explicado en otras ocasiones, conocimos del trabajo celular a través de los libros del Pastor Cho. Hasta el día de hoy, nuestro modelo es muy parecido al de Corea. Solamente se han hecho algunas adaptaciones de acuerdo a nuestro contexto.&lt;br /&gt;Desde un primer momento supimos que en las células del Pastor Cho se recogían ofrendas; eso produjo un debate dentro de Elim. Por un lado estaban aquellos que pensaban que no debían recogerse ofrendas en una reunión que tenía como principales destinatarios a los invitados. ¿Acaso no era un mal mensaje que en un primer acercamiento se les solicitara dinero a las personas?&lt;br /&gt;Pero había otro grupo que pensaba que las ofrendas no son algo malo; por el contrario, es una parte del evangelio. Consecuentemente, si las células tienen como propósito presentar el evangelio, se debía incluir el recoger ofrendas.&lt;br /&gt;Debo ser sincero y decir que la discusión no llegó a una conclusión. Se decidió recoger ofrendas solamente porque eso era lo que hacía el Pastor Cho y nosotros queríamos tener éxito como él.&lt;br /&gt;Hoy, 25 años después de haber iniciado nuestro trabajo celular, ya no tenemos ninguna duda con respecto al tema. Aunque comprendo y respeto a las iglesias que deciden no recoger ofrendas sino solamente en la celebración.&lt;br /&gt;Solo quiero terminar con un pensamiento. El tema de las ofrendas es mencionado en el Nuevo Testamento. Y la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento no tenía locales para reunirse. Lo hacían en las casas. Todas las menciones del Nuevo Testamento sobre el tema de las ofrendas se refiere a ofrendas que se colectaban en las casas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The offerings in the houses&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I have explained on other occasions, we knew about the cell work through Pastor Cho’s books. Until today, our model is very similar to the Korean. Only a few adjustments have been made according to our context.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From the outset, we learned that Pastor Cho’s cells collected offerings; that started a debate within Elim. On one side were those who felt offerings shouldn’t be collected at a meeting which had guests as main addressees. Was it not sending a bad message to ask people for money in the first meeting?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But there was another group who thought the offerings are not a bad thing, on the contrary, it is part of the Gospel. Consequently, if the cells are intended to present the Gospel, the collection of offerings had to be included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must be honest and say that the discussion did not reach a conclusion. We decided to collect offerings only because that was what Pastor Cho did and we wanted to succeed like he did.&lt;br /&gt;Today, 25 years after starting our cell work, we have no doubts regarding the subject. Even though I understand and respect the churches that decide not to collect offerings, but only in the celebration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just want to finish with a thought. The theme of the offerings is mentioned in the New Testament. And the New Testament church had no buildings where to meet. They did it in houses. All references in the New Testament on the subject of the offerings relate to offerings that were collected in the houses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;가정 셀그룹에서의 헌금&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;예전에도 설명했듯이, 조용기 목사님의 책들을 통해서 우리는 셀 사역을 배웠다. 오늘날까지, 우리의 모델은 한국의 모델과 매우 유사하다. 단지 몇 가지만 우리 상황에 맞게 조정하였다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;처음부터, 셀그룹에서 헌금을 모으는 조용기 목사님의 모델을 배우고, 엘림교회에서도 그렇게 시작하였다. 한편으로 헌금을  셀그룹에서 모으지 말아야 한다고 느끼는 자들은 손님들을 주 타킷으로 모이는 모임에서 였다. 첫 모임부터 사람들에게 돈을 요구한다는 나쁜 메시지를 전달할 수도 있다는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하지만 헌금은 나쁜 것이 아니라고 생각하는 그룹들도 있었다. 오히려 복음의 일부로 여기고, 그래서 셀이 복음을 제시하는 것이라면, 헌금 모금은 포함되어야 한다는 것이었다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;솔직히 이 토론은 아직 결론에 도달하지 못했음을 솔직히 이야기한다. 조용기 목사님이 했던 것이고, 우리도 그와 같이 잘 하고 싶기 때문에, 헌금 걷기를 하기로 하였다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;오늘,우리가 셀 사역을 시작한지 25년이 되는 해인데, 이 주제에 대해서 우리는 의심의 여지가 없다. 셀에서는 헌금을 걷지 않고, 축제예배에서만 걷기로 결정한 교회들도 이해하며, 존중한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;나는 이제는 결론에 이르렀으면 한다. 헌금이라는 테마는 신약성경에서도 언급된다. 신약 교회는 모이기 위한 건물이 없었다. 그들은 가정에서 모였다. 신약의 헌금 관련 모든 구절들이 가정에서 드리는 헌금과 관련있다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1742412801466564650?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1742412801466564650/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1742412801466564650' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1742412801466564650'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1742412801466564650'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/06/las-ofrendas-en-las-casas.html' title='LAS OFRENDAS EN LAS CASAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2774789946878510093</id><published>2011-06-03T11:43:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-06-03T11:44:52.333-07:00</updated><title type='text'>DIOS PROVEERÁ EL PRESUPUESTO NECESARIO</title><content type='html'>Dios proveerá el presupuesto necesario.&lt;br /&gt;La mayor inversión que se hace en una iglesia celular consiste en los salarios de los pastores. En una estructura completa con pastores de distritos y de zonas, el porcentaje del presupuesto que debe invertirse en salarios es considerable.&lt;br /&gt;Pero es importante tener en cuenta que la estructura y su presupuesto no se imponen de una vez a ninguna iglesia. La estructura y el equipo pastoral va creciendo en la medida que la misma iglesia crece. No se debe pensar que la contratación de pastores precede el crecimiento. Todo lo contrario, es el crecimiento el que demanda la contratación de nuevos pastores.&lt;br /&gt;Esto significa que el modelo es económicamente sostenible. Al mismo tiempo que el crecimiento demanda la contratación de un nuevo pastor, ya está proveyendo lo necesario para su salario. Es el incremento de nuevos miembros el que demanda un pastor más, pero al mismo tiempo esos miembros están ya preparados para proveer el soporte económico para cubrir el pago de la nueva plaza.&lt;br /&gt;Los demás gastos como papelería, materiales, oficinas, locales, etc., son realmente menores y algunos de ellos se hacen una vez en la vida. Solamente hay que ir un paso a la vez. No hay que preocuparse pensando en el presupuesto de una iglesia desarrollada cuando apenas se necesita dar los primeros pasos que ni siquiera implicarán mayores inversiones. El tiempo dirá sus demandas y, entonces, Dios proveerá.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;God will provide the essential budget.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The largest investment made in a cell church is the pastors’ salaries. In a complete structure with zone and district pastors, the budget´s percentage to be spent on wages is significant.&lt;br /&gt;But it is important to note that the structure and its budget are not imposed to any church all at once. The structure and the pastoral team grow as the church grows. No one should think that the hiring of pastors precedes the growth. On the contrary, it is the growth which demands the recruitment of new pastors.&lt;br /&gt;This means that the model is economically sustainable. At the same time as the growth demands the hiring of a new pastor, it is already providing the necessary to pay his salary. It is the increase of new members which demands one more pastor, but at the same time those members are already prepared to provide the financial support to cover the payment of the new position.&lt;br /&gt;Other expenses such as stationery materials, offices, facilities etc., are really minor and some of them are made once in life. You just have to go one step at a time. There is no need to worry thinking on the budget of a developed church when you barely need to take the first steps which will not even involve major investments. Time will tell its demands and then God will provide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하나님께서 본질적인 예산을 공급하실 것이다&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀교회에서 가장 크게 지출되는 곳은 목회자의 사례비이다. 지역목사와 교구목사를 둔 완벼한 구조에서, 사례비로 나가는 예산 비용은 크다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하지만 구조와 그 예산이 한번에 어떠한 교회에서나 부과되는 것은 아님을 주목하는 것이 중요하다.구조와 목회 팀은 교회가 성장하면서 같이 성장한다. 목회자를 더 많이 고용하는 것이 성장으로 이어진다고 생각하는 사람은 없을 것이다. 역으로, 성장은 곧 목회자들을 더 많이 요구한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이러한 모델이 경제적으로도 유지될 수 있게 한다는 의미이다. 성장이 새로운 목회자들을 더 많이 필요로 하는 동시에, 사례비로 필요한 비용 등을 이미 공급할 수준이 된다는 것이다. 새로운 멤버들의 증가는 더 많은 목회자를 요구하고, 동시에 그렇게 더 많아진 멤버들은 더 늘어난 목회자들에게 사례비를 지출할 수 있을 만큼 이미 준비가 되어 있다는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;사무용품, 사무실, 시설, 등이 또 비용이 많이 들어가는 것들이 또 있다. 하지만 이것은 정말로 많이 필요하지 않으며, 어떤 것들은 평생에 한번만 마련하면 되는 것들도 있다. 당신은 한번에 한단계씩 내딛어야 한다. 첫 발을 내딛고 있어서 거대한 투자는 엄두도 못 내는 상황일 때는, 기존의 갖추어진 교회에서나 필요한 막대한 예산 문제로 벌써부터 걱정할 필요가 없다. 시간이 말해줄 것이다, 필요로 하는 것들을. 그리고 하나님께서 공급하실 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2774789946878510093?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2774789946878510093/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2774789946878510093' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2774789946878510093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2774789946878510093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/06/dios-proveera-el-presupuesto-necesario.html' title='DIOS PROVEERÁ EL PRESUPUESTO NECESARIO'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2060702823128783566</id><published>2011-05-26T09:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-26T09:24:04.592-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CON ORDEN Y DECENCIA</title><content type='html'>Los peligros que se deben evitar al ejercer los dones en las células son los mismos peligros acerca de los cuales Pablo advirtió a la iglesia en las casas en Corinto. &lt;br /&gt;El primer peligro es el procurar el protagonismo. Dada la fascinación que las personas experimentan hacia lo sobrenatural, se tiende a ver a las personas con dones como seres fuera de lo normal. Eso puede producir actitudes de orgullo en quienes ejercen los dones. Por ello, Pablo recomienda que los dones deben ser ejercidos con el propósito único de edificar a los demás creyentes (1 Co. 14:12).&lt;br /&gt;También se debe cuidar el no dar una impresión inadecuada del evangelio a los no creyentes. Pablo dice que debemos tener mucho cuidado en el ejercicio de los dones de manera que los invitados no piensen que los cristianos son locos (1 Co. 14:23).&lt;br /&gt;Los dones deben ser ejercitados dentro de un orden ya establecido. Ese orden indica que solamente dos personas pueden hablar en lenguas. A lo sumo tres. Además, deben hacerlo por turno. Todo ello, siempre y cuando haya quien interprete. Al no haber un interprete quienes hablan en lenguas deben abstenerse de hacerlo (1 Co. 14:27-28).&lt;br /&gt;En cuanto a las profecías, de igual manera, solo deben hacerlo dos o tres personas. En caso que algo que fuera revelado a otra persona, la primera debe callar para ceder la oportunidad a la segunda (1 Co. 14:29-30).&lt;br /&gt;Las palabras finales de Pablo sobre el tema son excelentes para cerrar este blog: “Procurad profetizar, y no impidáis el hablar en lenguas; pero hágase todo decentemente y con orden” (1 Co. 14:39-40).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;With order and decency&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dangers to be avoided when practicing the gifts in the cells are the same dangers of which Paul warned the church in the houses at Corinth. &lt;br /&gt;The first danger is to attempt protagonism. Given the fascination that people experience towards the supernatural, there is a tendency to see people with gifts as unusual beings. That can produce proud attitudes in those who practice the gifts. Therefore, Paul recommends that gifts should be practiced with the sole purpose of edifying other believers (1 Corinthians 14:12).&lt;br /&gt;You must also be careful not to give an inappropriate impression of the gospel to unbelievers. Paul says we must be very careful in the practice of the gifts so that guests do not think that Christians are crazy (1 Corinthians 14:23).&lt;br /&gt;The gifts must be practiced within the established order. That order indicates that only two people can speak in tongues. Three at the most. Moreover one at a time. All this, as long as there is one to interpret. If there is no interpreter, who speaks in tongues must refrain from doing so (1 Corinthians 14:27-28).&lt;br /&gt;As for prophecies, likewise, only two or three people should speak. If anything was revealed to another person, the first should be silent to give to the second one the opportunity to speak (1 Corinthians 14:29-30).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul's final words on the subject are excellent to close this blog: “Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order” (1 Corinthians 14:39-40).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;적당히 하고 질서 있게&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀그룹에서 은사를 사용할 때 피해야 할 위험들은 바울이 고린도 가정 교회들에게 경고했던 것과 동일한 위험들이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;첫번 째 위험은 은사를 사용하는 자들을 높이는 것이다. 사람들은 영적 은사를 가진 사람을 비범한 존재로 보는 경향이 있다. 그 결과 자신의 은사들을 사용하는 자들은 교만해질 수 있다. 그러므로 바울은 다른 신자들을 세우기 위한 목적으로 은사들이 사용되어야 할 것이라고 권고하였다(고린도전서 14:12). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;영적 은사 사용은 불신자들에게 선한 인상을 심어주는 것이 또한 필수적이다. 바울은 말하기를, 불신자들이 우리를 미쳤다고 생각하지 않도록 하기 위해서 은사 사용에 주의를 기울어야 한다고 말한다(고린도전서 14:23).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;은사들은 또한 세워진 질서 안에서 사용되어져야 한다. 그 질서는 두 사람만이 방언으로 말할 수 있다는 것이다. 세 사람이 차서를 따라 한다(한번에 한 사람씩). 바울은 방언이 통역되지 않는다면, 그/그녀는 행하던 것을 멈추어야 한다고 말한다(고린도전서 14:27-28).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;예언함에 있어서, 두세 사람만이 말해야 할 것이다. 또 다른 사람에게 어떤 계시가 주어진다면, 그는 자기 차례를 기다려야 할 것이다. 그렇게 해서 모든 것을 적당하게 하고 질서대로 행한다(고린도전서 14:29-30).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;이 주제에 대한 바울의 마지막 말은 이 글을 끝맺기에도 정말로 탁월한다: 그런즉 형제들아 예언하기를 사모하며 방언 말하기를 금하지 말라 모든 것을 적당하게 하고 질서대로 하라(고린도전서 14:39-40).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2060702823128783566?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2060702823128783566/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2060702823128783566' title='1 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2060702823128783566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2060702823128783566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/05/con-orden-y-decencia.html' title='CON ORDEN Y DECENCIA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-14044158643424527</id><published>2011-05-19T06:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-19T06:06:25.114-07:00</updated><title type='text'>¿QUÉ DON DESEAS?</title><content type='html'>Pablo anima a los cristianos a buscar los dones (1 Co. 14:1; 14:39). En su presentación deja ver que el recibir un don es un proceso que comienza por el simple deseo de la persona de tenerlo. El punto inicial es, entonces, ¿cuál don es el que deseas?&lt;br /&gt;Normalmente, pensamos de los dones como algo que Dios otorga sin ninguna relación con nuestros deseos humanos. Al fin y al cabo ¿no se llaman dones? ¿Algo que Dios da por iniciativa propia?&lt;br /&gt;Consideramos un buen regalo aquél que verdaderamente satisface nuestros intereses. Todos hemos recibido alguna vez regalos que nos son del todo inútiles. Un anciano de 90 años lamentaba que sus amistades tuvieran tan corta memoria que ya le habían regalado una cafetera por tercera vez en su vida. Todas idénticas. A otra señora su amiga le regaló un juego de tazas que ella misma le había dada unos años antes.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, a veces, nos dan regalos que nos satisfacen plenamente y los apreciamos mucho. Bueno, Dios sabe dar muy buenos regalos. Y él nunca nos dará algo que no nos satisfaga. ¿Puedes pensar en alguien que tenga un don que no desea?&lt;br /&gt;Por ello, se debe animar a los miembros de la célula para que seleccionen el don que más les gustaría tener. Ese es el primer paso para recibirlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;What gift do you want?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul encourages Christians to seek the gifts (1 Corinthians 14:1, 14:39). In his presentation he reveals that receiving a gift is a process that starts with the person’s simple desire of having it. The starting point is, then, which gift is the one you desire?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Normally, we think of gifts as something God gives without any relation to our human desires. After all, aren’t they called gifts? Something God gives on his own initiative?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We believe a good gift is the one which truly satisfies our interests. We have all once received gifts that are completely useless to us. A 90 year old man bewailed his friends had such a short memory that they had given him a coffee machine for the third time in his life. All identical. Another woman received from her friend a set of cups that she had given her a couple of years earlier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But sometimes we receive gifts that fully satisfy us, which are very much appreciated. Well, God makes pretty good gifts. And he will never give us something we do not feel satisfied with. Can you think of someone who has a gift that he/she does not want?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, the cell members should be encouraged to select the gift they would like to have most. That is the first step to receiving it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;어떤 은사들을 원하는가&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;바울은 그리스도인들을 격려하여 은사를 추구하게 한다(고린도전서 14:1, 14:39). 그는 말하기를, 은사를 받는 것은 그 사람이 단순히 은사를 가지고자 하는 바람에서 시작하는 과정이라는 것이다. 그러므로 출발점은 바람이다. 어떤 은사를 바라는가?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;보통, 은사에 대해 생각하기를, 우리 인간의 어떠한 바람과는 상관없이 하나님께서 주시는 것이라고 생각한다. 무엇보다도, 그것들은 은사라고 불리지 않는가? 하나님께서 그의 주도로 주시는 것이 아닌가?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;좋은 은사는 우리의 관심사들을 진정으로 만족시키는 것이라고 우리는 믿는다. 우리 모두는 우리에게 완전히 쓸모 없는 때에 은사들을 가진다. 90세 노인은 슬퍼하였다. 그의 친구들이 그에게 똑같은 커피 머신을 세번씩이나 주었었기 때문이다. 또 다른 여성이 친구에게서 커피잔 세트를 받았는데, 2년 전에 받은 것과 똑같은 세트였다. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;하지만 때때로 우리를 충만히 만족시키는 은사들을 받는다. 그것들에 대해 매우 감사해 한다. 하나님은 꽤 좋은 은사들을 만드신다. 그리고 만족스러움이 들지 않는 것들은 결단코 주시지 않을 것이다. 원치 않는 은사를 가진 사람들을 떠올릴 수 있는가?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 멤버들은 그들이 가장 바라는 은사들을 하나님께 간구하라고 격려 받아야 할 것이다. 이것이 은사를 실제로 받는 첫번째 단계이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-14044158643424527?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/14044158643424527/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=14044158643424527' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/14044158643424527'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/14044158643424527'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/05/que-don-deseas.html' title='¿QUÉ DON DESEAS?'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7007085934706207527</id><published>2011-05-12T00:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-13T13:58:30.574-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA ORACIÓN POR LOS ENFERMOS EN LA CÉLULA</title><content type='html'>Al hablar del tema de los dones del Espíritu tendemos a limitarnos a las lenguas y la profecía. Pero, no hay que olvidar que también son dones del Espíritu las sanidades y los milagros.&lt;br /&gt;En una congregación cuyo número de miembros va en aumento, resulta cada vez más difícil para el pastor el orar por todos los enfermos. Esto no por causa de falta de voluntad, sino porque objetivamente es cada vez más difícil dedicar el tiempo adecuado para orar por una cantidad creciente de necesidades.&lt;br /&gt;En realidad, el pastor puede orar por los enfermos que desee. Pero, no debe dejarse de lado la enseñanza que nos dice que debemos orar los unos por los otros para ser sanados (Santiago 5:16). Esta es una función que debe ejercitarse como parte del sacerdocio de todos los creyentes.&lt;br /&gt;Obviamente, el mejor ambiente para orar los unos por los otros es en las células. Es el lugar donde las personas se conocen íntimamente. Donde pueden compartir sus situaciones de manera más amplia. Donde se establecen lazos emocionales más fuertes. Todo ello da como resultado una oración por sanidad más personalizada.&lt;br /&gt;En las celebraciones el pastor puede hacer una oración general por todos los enfermos, aun aquellos que no estén presentes. Pero en la célula es posible confesarse mutuamente las faltas, colocar las manos sobre los enfermos y orar para que los dones de sanidades operen. La célula es el lugar ideal para que los creyentes se sirvan los unos a los otros por medio de sus dones espirituales.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Prayer for the sick in the cell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we talk about the gifts of the Spirit we tend to limit them to speaking in tongues and the prophecy. But we must not forget that healings and miracles are also gifts of the Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;In a congregation whose membership is growing, it is increasingly difficult for the pastor to pray for all the sick. This is not because of lack of willingness, but because objectively it is increasingly difficult to devote adequate time to pray for a growing number of needs.&lt;br /&gt;In fact, the pastor can pray for all the sick he whishes. But, the instruction that tells us to pray for each other to be healed should not be left a side (James 5:16). This is a duty that should be practiced as part of all believers priesthood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obviously, the best milieu to pray for each other is in cells. It is the place where people know each other intimately. Where they can broadly share their situations. Where stronger emotional ties are established. This results in a more personal healing prayer.&lt;br /&gt;In the celebrations the pastor can make a general prayer for all the sick, even for those who are not present. But in the cell you can confess each others faults, place hands on the sick and pray for the operation of the gifts of healing. The cell is the ideal place for believers to serve each other through their spiritual gifts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀에서 병자를 위해 기도하기&lt;br /&gt;마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;성령의 은사에 대해 이야기할 때, 방언이나 예언의 은사로 제한하는 경향이 있다. 하지만 치유와 기적의 은사 또한 성령의 은사임을 잊지 말아야 한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;교인의 숫자가 증가하고 있는 회중에게서, 목회자는 모든 병자들을 위해 기도한다는 것이 점점 힘들어진다. 이것은 기꺼이 그들을 위해 기도하고자 함이 부족해서가 아니라, 기도를 필요로 하는 숫자가 증가하여 충분한 시간을 쏟아붓기가 점점 힘들어져 가기 때문인 것이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;그렇다, 목회자는 그가 바라는 만큼 많은 병자들을 위해 기도할 수 있다. 하지만 성경은 또한 말씀하기를, 우리가 서로를 위해 기도할 필요가 있다는 것이다(야고보서 5:16). 이것은 모든 신자들이 그들의 제사장직의 일환으로서 수행해야 할 임무이다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;서로를 위한 기도하기 좋은 최고의 장소는 셀이다. 사람들은 서로를 친밀하게 아는 장소이다. 그래서 그들의 삶에 일어나는 일들을 충분히 나눌 수 있고, 정서적인 연대감을 구축할 수 있다. 치유 또한 신자들이 서로를 기도해줌으로써 이 분위기 속에서 일어난다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;대그룹 축제예배에서, 목사님은 모든 병자를 위해 기도할 수 있다, 심지어 참석하지 않은 자들을 위해서도. 하지만 셀에서, 각각의 신자들이 서로에게 죄를 고백하고, 병자에게 손을 얹고, 치유의 은사를 가지고 기도할 수 있다. 셀은 신자들이 그들의 영적 은사를 통해서 서로를 섬기는 이상적인 장소이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7007085934706207527?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7007085934706207527/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7007085934706207527' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7007085934706207527'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7007085934706207527'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/05/la-oracion-por-los-enfermos-en-la.html' title='LA ORACIÓN POR LOS ENFERMOS EN LA CÉLULA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5414819812556474343</id><published>2011-05-05T05:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-07T21:22:13.412-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LOS DONES DEL ESPÍRITU Y LA EVANGELIZACIÓN</title><content type='html'>Sin duda que los pasajes del Nuevo Testamento que mencionan los dones del Espíritu Santo se refieren al ejercicio de los mismos en las reuniones en las casas. Es sabido que los edificios para culto cristiano comenzaron a construirse después de concluida la redacción de las Escrituras.&lt;br /&gt;Un pasaje importante que relaciona el tema de los dones con la evangelización lo encontramos en 1 Corintios 14: 23 ‘Así que, si toda la iglesia se reúne y todos hablan en lenguas, y entran algunos que no entienden o no creen, ¿no dirán que ustedes están locos?’&lt;br /&gt;Ante el ejercicio fuera de control de los dones del Espíritu, se puede crear una situación que parezca locura a los ojos de los incrédulos. Pablo recomienda que para que tal cosa no ocurra, se debe regular el uso de los dones en las casas. Eso nos habla de la preocupación del apóstol por guardar la imagen de la iglesia ante la opinión pública. La imagen debía ser protegida para no obstaculizar el trabajo evangelizador.&lt;br /&gt;No basta con que un don del Espíritu sea genuino y sea ejercido con toda honestidad. También se necesita hacerlo en un orden que no provoque en los amigos la idea que el evangelio es cosa de locos. El trabajo en las células no debe perder de vista a los invitados. La preocupación de Pablo era la imagen que las reuniones en casas podían dar a los incrédulos. Nosotros debemos hacer propia la misma preocupación. No debemos desechar el ejercicio de los dones, pero tampoco debemos olvidar que siempre habrá invitados presentes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The gifts of the Spirit and the evangelization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that the New Testament passages that mention the gifts of the Holy Spirit relate to their practice in the houses meetings. It is known that the buildings for Christian worship began to be constructed after the completion of the writing of the Scripture. &lt;br /&gt;An important passage linking the topic of the gifts of the Spirit to evangelism is found in 1 Corinthians 14: 23 “If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?”&lt;br /&gt;The out of control practice of the gifts of the Spirit, can create a situation that could seem like madness in the eyes of unbelievers. For such a thing to ever happen Paul recommends, the regulation of the use of the gifts in the houses. That speaks of the Apostle's concern for keeping the Church’s image before the public opinion. The image had to be protected to avoid hindering the evangelization work.&lt;br /&gt;A genuine gift of the Spirit and its practice in all honesty is not enough. It is imperative to do it in an order that will not cause friends to think that the gospel is a crazy thing. Guests should not be neglected because of the work in the cells. The image that the meetings in houses could give to unbelievers was Paul’s concern. We should make that same concern our own. We should not dismiss the practice of the gifts, but we should not forget either that there will always be guests present.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN PORTUGUÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Os dons do Espírito e a evangelização&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Não resta dúvida de que os textos do Novo Testamento a respeito de dons do Espírito Santo se relacionam à sua prática nas reuniões nas casas. É sabido que os prédios para o culto cristão começaram a ser construídos após a conclusão da escrita da Bíblia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Um trecho importante que conduz o tópico dos dons do Espírito ao evangelismo se encontra em 1 Coríntios 14.23: "Imaginem que a igreja esteja reunida e todos comecem a falar em línguas estranhas. Se chegarem ali algumas pessoas simples ou descrentes, será que não vão dizer que vocês estão loucos?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A prática fora de controle dos dons do Espírito pode criar uma situação que pareça loucura aos olhos de incrédulos. Paulo recomenda que para que isso não aconteça se deve regular o uso dos dons nas casas. Isso nos fala da preocupação do apóstolo de guardar a imagem da igreja diante da opinião pública. A imagem devia ser protegida para não causar obstáculos ao trabalho de evangelismo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Não basta que um dom do Espírito seja genuíno e seja exercido com toda honestidade. Também é necessário fazê-lo em uma ordem que não provoque nos amigos a ideia de que o evangelho é uma coisa de loucos. O trabalho nas células não deve perder de vista os convidados. A preocupação de Paulo era a imagem que as reuniões nas casas podiam causar nos incrédulos. Essa também deve ser a nossa preocupação. Embora não devamos negligenciar o uso dos dons espirituais na célula e celebração, devemos fazê-lo de tal maneira que mesmo os de fora (convidados) sejam edificados.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5414819812556474343?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5414819812556474343/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5414819812556474343' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5414819812556474343'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5414819812556474343'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/05/los-dones-del-espiritu-y-la.html' title='LOS DONES DEL ESPÍRITU Y LA EVANGELIZACIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2254373966957258747</id><published>2011-04-28T11:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-28T11:33:22.912-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA PARADOJA DE LAS ESTADÍSTICAS</title><content type='html'>Se ha dicho que las estadísticas deben ser actualizadas, exactas y recoger la información suficiente como para monitorear adecuadamente el trabajo. En la medida que las estadísticas son mejores, se convierten en una herramienta más eficiente para nuevos alcances.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, al mismo tiempo, se puede producir el problema de que las estadísticas llegan a ser tan completas que pueden llegar a sustituir a la realidad. Es decir, las personas que monitorean pueden confiarse tanto de las buenas estadísticas que terminan sustituyendo la realidad misma por los reportes.&lt;br /&gt;A partir de allí, las metas, proyecciones, evaluaciones y los aspectos principales del trabajo se harán sobre la base de una realidad de papel y tinta; pero no la auténtica realidad. En tal caso, las estadísticas se convierten en una barrera para accesar a la realidad.&lt;br /&gt;Esa es la paradoja de las estadísticas. Debemos esforzarnos por tener estadísticas cada vez más eficientes, pero al mismo tiempo se esta construyendo un instrumento que puede alejarnos de la realidad en lugar de acercarnos.&lt;br /&gt;Para evitar tal paradoja, quienes monitorean, deben estar siempre en continuo contacto con la realidad. Deben estar inmersos en el trabajo real de las casas. Deben relacionarse permanentemente con la vida de las células y confrontar constantemente la realidad con las estadísticas. Solamente así las estadísticas no perderán su verdadera utilidad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The statistics paradox.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been said that statistics should be updated, accurate and collect enough information to monitor the work properly. The statistics become a more efficient tool for new achievements as they are improved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But at the same time, a problem of statistics becoming so complete that they may replace the reality can occur. That is, that people who monitor can rely so much on good statistics that end up replacing reality itself for the reports. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From there on, goals, projections, evaluations and key aspects of the work will be done based on a reality of paper and ink, but not on the true reality. In such a case, statistics become a barrier to access reality.&lt;br /&gt;That is the statistics paradox. We must strive to have even more efficient statistics, but at the same time a tool that can move us away from reality instead of bringing us closer to it, is being built.&lt;br /&gt;To avoid such paradox, who monitors, must always be in continuous contact with reality, and must be immersed in the real work of the houses, must permanently relate with the life of the cells and continuously confront the reality with the statistics. Only then the statistics will not lose their true benefit.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2254373966957258747?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2254373966957258747/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2254373966957258747' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2254373966957258747'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2254373966957258747'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/04/la-paradoja-de-las-estadisticas.html' title='LA PARADOJA DE LAS ESTADÍSTICAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4137389859019193099</id><published>2011-04-21T10:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-21T10:10:51.449-07:00</updated><title type='text'>RECOLECCIÓN DE ESTADÍSTICAS</title><content type='html'>La recolección de los datos estadísticos en Elim sigue el orden natural de la estructura de trabajo y se encuentra dividido entre todos sus integrantes. Veamos, el líder llena el reporte de su célula y lo entrega a su supervisor. El supervisor elabora un reporte de las células de su sector sobre la base de los reportes que ha recibido de cada uno de sus líderes. Luego, el supervisor entrega su reporte al pastor de zona.&lt;br /&gt;El pastor de zona es ya una persona trabajando a tiempo completo para la iglesia. El pastor elabora un reporte de su zona sobre la base de los reportes de todos sus supervisores. Después entrega su reporte a su pastor de distrito. El pastor de distrito elabora, a su vez, un reporte sobre la base de la información que le han dado sus pastores de zona.&lt;br /&gt;Por último, los pastores de distritos envían sus estadísticas a la secretaría donde, sumando los datos de los nueve distritos, se elabora el reporte de toda la iglesia. Este proceso se realiza cada semana y es parte de la rutina de trabajo de los involucrados en la labor celular.&lt;br /&gt;En Elim no utilizamos ninguna aplicación (software) especializada. No hemos encontrado una aplicación que llene cabalmente nuestras necesidades. El trabajo se hace hasta el nivel de supervisores de manera manual. De allí en adelante se hace utilizando hojas electrónicas de cálculo.&lt;br /&gt;Obviamente, Elim es una iglesia con una estructura de trabajo completa y con 25 años de experiencia. Eso permite tener datos firmes cada semana. Pero, algunos principios pueden extraerse y acoplarse a iglesias menos estructuradas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Collection of statistics.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The collection of statistical data in Elim follows the natural order of the work structure and it is divided among all its members. Let’s see, the leader fills out his cell report and gives it to his supervisor. The supervisor prepares a report of the cells of his sector based on the reports he has received from each of his leaders. Then the supervisor hands in his report to the zone pastor.&lt;br /&gt;The zone pastor is a person already working full time for the church. The pastor prepares a report of his zone based on the reports from all his supervisors. Then he delivers his report to his district pastor. The district pastor also prepares a report based on the information given by his zone pastors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, the district pastors send their statistics to the Secretariat where the data of the nine districts are added up to create a report of the whole church. This process is carried out every week and is part of the work routine of those involved in the cell work. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At Elim we do not use in any specialized software. We have not found a software that meets our precise needs. The work is done manually up to the level of supervisors. Thereafter it is done using worksheets.&lt;br /&gt;Obviously, Elim is a church with a full working structure and with 25 years of experience. That allows having firm data each week. But, some principles can be extracted and coupled to less structured churches.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4137389859019193099?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4137389859019193099/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4137389859019193099' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4137389859019193099'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4137389859019193099'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/04/recoleccion-de-estadisticas.html' title='RECOLECCIÓN DE ESTADÍSTICAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-286905871479462248</id><published>2011-04-14T06:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-14T06:25:46.766-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS ESTADÍSTICAS Y SU JUSTIFICACIÓN</title><content type='html'>Los datos estadísticos que llevamos en Elim son los siguientes:&lt;br /&gt;• Número de líderes. No contamos el número de células sino de líderes. El trabajo celular sigue una estrategia de liderazgo. Los líderes son más decisivos que las células. Por tanto, nos interesa conocer con cuántos líderes se cuenta. De ello dependerá la multiplicación.&lt;br /&gt;• Asistencia. Tanto de los hermanos miembros del núcleo de la célula como de invitados. Con ello, se sabe la cantidad de personas que están siendo alcanzadas con el evangelio.&lt;br /&gt;• Conversiones. Si un propósito de las células es la evangelización, solo se puede saber si ese propósito se está logrando por medio de este control.&lt;br /&gt;• Visitas. No basta con que una persona reciba a Jesús. Se le debe injertar en la vida de iglesia. Las visitas durante las primeras semanas después de la conversión son vitales para afirmar a esa persona en la fe.&lt;br /&gt;• Bautismos en agua. Este es el paso final con el que se sella una conversión. El bautismo en agua es un paso más allá en la nueva vida de un creyente.&lt;br /&gt;Por el tipo de datos que recogemos es evidente que nuestros grandes prioridades son la evangelización y la consolidación de los nuevos creyentes. No solamente son estos los aspectos que se llevan en estadísticas sino que son también los que se evalúan. Al asignarle a cada uno de estos aspectos un porcentaje de evaluación, se enfatiza su importancia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Statistics and their justification. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The statistics we manage in Elim are:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Number of leaders. We don’t count the number of cells but of leaders. The cell work follows a leadership strategy. The leaders are more decisive than the cells. Therefore, we are interested in knowing how many leaders we have. Multiplication will depend on it.&lt;br /&gt;• Attendance. Of both, the brethrens members of the cell core as of the guests. The amount of people that are being reached with the gospel is acknowledged with it.&lt;br /&gt;• Conversions. If evangelism is one of the cells’ purposes, we can only know if that purpose is being achieved by this control.&lt;br /&gt;• Visits. A person receiving Jesus is not enough. He/she must be grafted into the church life. Visits during the first weeks after the conversion are vital to affirm that person in the faith.&lt;br /&gt;• Baptism in water. This is the final step with which a conversion is sealed. The Baptism in water is a step further in a believer’s new life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the type of data we collect it is clear that our main priorities are evangelization and the consolidation of new believers. These are not only the aspects that are managed in statistics but are also the ones that are evaluated. Their importance is emphasized by assigning to each one of these aspects a percentage of assessment.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-286905871479462248?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/286905871479462248/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=286905871479462248' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/286905871479462248'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/286905871479462248'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/04/las-estadisticas-y-su-justificacion.html' title='LAS ESTADÍSTICAS Y SU JUSTIFICACIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2546537632635136667</id><published>2011-04-07T05:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-07T05:02:16.444-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS ESTADÍSTICAS Y LAS METAS.</title><content type='html'>Llevar estadísticas de las células es importante porque es un asunto que está muy ligado al de las metas. Solamente se puede saber cómo se encuentra una iglesia con relación a sus metas por medio de los registros estadísticos.&lt;br /&gt;Como bien se ha dicho: lo que no se puede medir, no se puede monitorear. Pero el avance del trabajo celular sí puede ser medido. Consecuentemente, también puede ser monitoreado. Por ello, las estadísticas deben ser fiables, precisas y periódicas. Asegurando esas características, las estadísticas se vuelven una herramienta poderosa para evaluar y dirigir el trabajo celular.&lt;br /&gt;Sin duda que los aspectos numéricos son solo una parte del trabajo celular. Pero, siendo parte de él, es importante no descuidarlo. No se debe dejar de lado el control estadístico bajo la excusa que lo más importante de las células no son los números sino la comunión o el evangelismo. Pero, aún la comunión y el evangelismo son medibles.&lt;br /&gt;Obviamente, el llevar registros estadísticos demanda esfuerzo y constancia. Pero, una vez el mecanismo de recopilación de datos está establecido, el proceso transcurrirá sin dificultades cada semana. Existen aplicaciones informáticas para facilitar el trabajo. Pero, es probable que una iglesia prefiera desarrollar su propio sistema. Lo importante es no dejar a la deriva una herramienta vital para el alcance de las metas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Statistics and Goals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is important to keep cells’ statistics because this is an issue that is closely tied to the goals. You can only know how a church is doing in relation to its goals through the statistical records.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As it has been said whatever can not be measured, can not be monitored. But the progress of the cell work can be measured. Consequently, it can also be monitored. Therefore, the statistics must be reliable, accurate and periodical. Securing these characteristics, the statistics become a powerful tool to assess and direct the cell work. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that the numerical aspects are only one part of the cell work. But as part of it, is important not to neglect it. The statistical control must not be left aside under the excuse that the most important thing about cells is not the numbers but the fellowship or the evangelism. But even the fellowship and evangelism are measurable.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Obviously, keeping statistical archives demands effort and perseverance. But, once the data collection mechanism is established, the process will elapse without difficulty each week. There are computer applications to facilitate the work. But a church is likely to prefer to develop its own system. The important thing is not to let a vital tool for the achievement of goals drift away.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2546537632635136667?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2546537632635136667/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2546537632635136667' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2546537632635136667'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2546537632635136667'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/04/las-estadisticas-y-las-metas.html' title='LAS ESTADÍSTICAS Y LAS METAS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5105128089432431724</id><published>2011-03-31T00:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-31T00:59:39.204-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SACERDOTES EN TIERRA EXTRAJERA</title><content type='html'>Alrededor de dos millones de salvadoreños viven fuera del territorio nacional, principalmente en los Estados Unidos de América. Una parte de ellos salieron del país por causa de la guerra civil, otros para huir de la situación de desempleo del país. Al encontrarse fuera de su tierra, los salvadoreños experimentan nostalgia por el país que dejaron. A eso, los salvadoreños en la diáspora le llaman ‘mal de país.’&lt;br /&gt;Esa condición, es el caldo de cultivo sobre el cual el trabajo celular se desarrolla de manera efectiva. En la células, los salvadoreños se reencuentran a otros compatriotas, reencuentran las memorias, las expresiones, etc. Es así como las células se han ido multiplicando y, posteriormente, convirtiéndose en filiales de Elim en El Salvador.&lt;br /&gt;Un poco más de 44 filiales se han establecido de esa manera en los Estados Unidos. Y ese número continúa en constante expansión. Esas iglesias no fueron plantadas como resultado de un plan estratégico o el envío de misioneros. Fueron iglesias que surgieron de manera espontánea. El elemento activador de ese fenómeno es el entrenamiento que esos cristianos salvadoreños tuvieron en Elim. Como líderes de células, aprendieron sobre el sacerdocio de todos los creyentes en la práctica. Para ellos, el encontrarse en otro país, no anula sus responsabilidades cristianas. &lt;br /&gt;Probablemente, este sea un modelo de plantación de iglesias que responde más a la pasión por la evangelización y a la acción del Espíritu Santo que cualquier otro elemento. A la vez, esto confirma la verdad de capacitar a los santos para la obra del ministerio y liberarlos para ejercitar el sacerdocio de todos los creyentes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Priests in a foreign land. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Around two million Salvadorans live outside the country, mainly in the United States of America. One part of them left the country because of the civil war, others to flee the country's unemployment situation. Salvadorans experience nostalgia for the country they left when they find themselves out of their homeland. That is called by Salvadorans in the Diaspora “homesickness for the country.”&lt;br /&gt;This condition is the breeding ground on which cell work develops effectively. In the cell, the Salvadorans are reunited with their compatriots, memories, expressions, etc.. This is how the cells have been multiplying and then becoming a branchurch of Elim in El Salvador. &lt;br /&gt;A little over 44 branchurches have been set that way in the United States. And that number continues to steadily expand. Those churches were not planted as a result of a strategic plan or the sending of missionaries. These were churches that emerged spontaneously. The trigger element of this phenomenon is the training that those Salvadoran Christians had at Elim. As cell leaders, they learned by practice about the priesthood of all believers. For them, to find themselves in another country does not annul their Christian responsibilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is probably a church planting model that responds more to the passion for evangelism and the action of the Holy Spirit, than any other element. At the same time, this confirms the truth of equipping the saints for the work of the ministry and releasing them to exercise the priesthood of all believers.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5105128089432431724?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5105128089432431724/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5105128089432431724' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5105128089432431724'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5105128089432431724'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/03/sacerdotes-en-tierra-extrajera.html' title='SACERDOTES EN TIERRA EXTRAJERA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1422264456577184050</id><published>2011-03-25T10:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-25T10:06:04.163-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EDIFICANDO MEGA IGLESIAS.</title><content type='html'>Existen varios modelos de plantación de iglesias que siguen las iglesias celulares. En nuestro caso, hemos optado por establecer mega iglesias en lugar de muchas iglesias. De hecho, cuando se adoptó el trabajo celular, teníamos alrededor de 22 iglesias en la ciudad capital. Como parte de la adopción del modelo celular se tomó la decisión de cerrar esas iglesias para centralizar el esfuerzo en una sola mega iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Desde entonces, Elim ha estado enfocada en muy pocas iglesias pero que llegan a ser bastante numerosas. En un país como El Salvador, solamente tenemos unas 40 iglesias. Si eso se compara, por ejemplo, con las Asambleas de Dios que tienen más de 1,100 iglesias en el país, resulta ser una cantidad muy pequeña.&lt;br /&gt;Las razones son varias. Una es que solamente unificando las fuerzas la iglesia ha podido alcanzar grandes metas como la televisión, las radios, los terrenos, los edificios. Si las fuerzas estuvieran dispersas en varias iglesias, cada una tendría sus propios proyectos y difícilmente podría alcanzarse algo que impactara el país. Impactar como la televisión, por ejemplo, que transmite 24 horas diarias cubriendo todo el país.&lt;br /&gt;Una mega iglesia también desarrolla una influencia política considerable dentro de la sociedad. Eso permite que la iglesia tenga los elementos como para influir en la toma de decisiones, promulgación de leyes, etc. La iglesia se convierte en una protagonista e interlocutora frente al Estado. Eso supone la tentación de capitalizar la fuerza en un sentido partidario; pero, si se mantiene la ecuanimidad, la influencia puede usarse para ejercer una influencia ética y ejemplar.&lt;br /&gt;Otras de nuestras iglesias han construido los edificios más grandes en el interior del país y, eso, les permite desarrollar diversos proyectos de beneficio para sus comunidades. Obviamente, no nos oponemos en ninguna manera a que otras iglesias sigan una política de plantación agresiva de iglesias. Ni siquiera me atrevería a recomendar que se siguiera nuestra política. No obstante, esa política tiene sus razones y, eso, es lo que he tratado de exponer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Building mega churches.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are several models of church planting that cell churches follow. In our case, we have opted to set up mega churches instead of many churches. In fact, when the cell work was adopted, we had about 22 churches in the capital city. As part of the adoption of the cell model the decision to close those churches was taken to centralize the effort into one mega church.&lt;br /&gt;Since then, Elim has been focused on very few churches, but, that have come to be quite numerous. In a country like El Salvador, we only have about 40 churches. If that is compared, for example, with the Assemblies of God that has more than 1,100 churches in the country, this number becomes a very small amount.&lt;br /&gt;The reasons are various. One is that only unifying forces, the church has been able to achieve great goals as the television, the radios, the land, the buildings. If the efforts were scattered in several churches, each one would have their own projects and it would be very difficult to achieve something that would impact the country. To impact such as the television does, for example, which broadcasts 24 hours a day covering the whole country.&lt;br /&gt;A mega church also performs a considerable political influence within society. That allows the church to have the elements to influence decision making, enactment of laws, etc. The church becomes a protagonist and a speaker before the State. That represents the temptation to capitalize the force in a partisan sense, but if the equanimity is maintained, the influence can be used to exercise an exemplary and ethical influence.&lt;br /&gt;Some of our churches have built the most largest buildings in the interior of the country and, that allows them to develop various projects to benefit their communities. Obviously, we are not opposed in any way that other churches follow a policy of aggressive church planting. I would not even dare to recommend to follow our policy. However, that policy has its reasons, and that is what I have tried to explain.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1422264456577184050?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1422264456577184050/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1422264456577184050' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1422264456577184050'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1422264456577184050'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/03/edificando-mega-iglesias.html' title='EDIFICANDO MEGA IGLESIAS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-3832137069082102930</id><published>2011-03-17T05:57:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-17T05:57:57.632-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA COOPERACIÓN EN LA PLANTACIÓN DE IGLESIAS.</title><content type='html'>Una de las cualidades de los plantadores de iglesias es que deben tener un aprecio por el Cuerpo de Cristo. Este aprecio debe manifestarse en un esfuerzo por alcanzar la cooperación con otras denominaciones. &lt;br /&gt;Probablemente, una de las mayores debilidades en la plantación de iglesias sea la de la duplicación de esfuerzos, el desaprovechamiento de la experiencia de otros y la falta de una visión estratégica. El conocer lo que otros planean y el dar a conocer lo que se piensa es vital para elaborar un esfuerzo conjunto. Este esfuerzo permite construir acuerdos para una optimización de las finanzas, la disponibilidad de recursos humanos y una mayor eficacia evangelizadora.&lt;br /&gt;Cuando se trabaja de manera aislada, el plantar nuevas iglesias puede llegar a ser contraproducente para otros esfuerzos que ya se hacen. Incluso, puede conducir a una competencia innecesaria entre denominaciones. No se trata de extender un reinado eclesiástico o personal. Se trata de extender el reino de Dios.&lt;br /&gt;Probablemente en determinado sector o ciudad no habrá un edificio con el nombre de cada denominación existente. Tal vez, el nombre de una denominación no se encuentre; pero, lo importante es que exista una iglesia que sea la luz en esa comunidad. En lugar de acumular iglesias, lado a lado sobre una calle, es mejor ubicarlas estratégicamente para obtener una red mucho más extensa y amplia. De esa manera, se estará trabajando como Cuerpo de Cristo y no como una empresa personal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The cooperation in church planting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the characteristics of church planters is that they must have an appreciation for the Body of Christ. This appreciation should manifest itself in an effort to achieve cooperation with other denominations.&lt;br /&gt;Probably one of the main weaknesses in church planting is the duplication of efforts, wastage of the experience of others and the lack of a strategic vision. Knowing what others are planning and to let others know what we think is vital to develop a joint effort. This effort can build agreements for the optimization of finances, human resource availability and a more effective evangelization.&lt;br /&gt;When working in isolation, planting new churches can be counterproductive to other efforts that are already been done. This may even lead to an unnecessary competition between denominations. It is not about extending a personal or ecclesiastical kingdom. It is about extending the kingdom of God.&lt;br /&gt;Probably in a particular sector or city there will not be a building with the name of each existing denomination. Perhaps the name of a denomination will not be there, but the important thing is that there is a church that is the light in that community. Instead of accumulating churches, side by side on a street, it is best to place them strategically to get a much more extensive and wider network. In that way, you will be working as the Body of Christ and not as a personal enterprise.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-3832137069082102930?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/3832137069082102930/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=3832137069082102930' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/3832137069082102930'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/3832137069082102930'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/03/la-cooperacion-en-la-plantacion-de.html' title='LA COOPERACIÓN EN LA PLANTACIÓN DE IGLESIAS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8032645894412984663</id><published>2011-03-10T06:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-10T06:15:49.773-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA ESTRATEGIA DE PLANTACIÓN DE IGLESIAS DE PABLO</title><content type='html'>El trabajo de Pablo se basó en buena medida en abrir reuniones en las casas. Estas reuniones se multiplicaban hasta llegar a convertirse en comunidades cristianas que influenciaban las ciudades.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, basta con tomar un mapa del mundo del Nuevo Testamento para darse cuenta que Pablo dejó de lado varias ciudades importantes en donde no existe evidencia que haya plantado ninguna iglesia. Su meta evidente era plantar iglesias en ciudades estratégicas. Las ciudades las seleccionaba por su importancia comercial, política y ubicación geográfica. Pablo sabía que su expectativa de vida no le permitiría predicar en cada ciudad como él pudiera desear.&lt;br /&gt;Eso le impulsó a adoptar la estrategia de plantar iglesias en las ciudades de influencia para que, luego, el evangelio se esparciera por toda la región sobre la cual esas ciudades ejercían su influencia. Un ejemplo de ello es la ciudad de Éfeso. Pablo dedicó una buena parte de su ministerio para fortalecer la obra en esa ciudad. El resultado fue que a partir de Éfeso el evangelio se extendió por toda la provincia de Asia. Lo mismo sucedió en otras regiones como Acaya y Macedonia.&lt;br /&gt;A veces, las ciudades que escogió no fueron las más grandes y pobladas sino aquellas que mayor influencia tenían. En el trabajo de plantar iglesias es importante contar con una estrategia elaborada. De esa forma, se optimizan los recursos y se saca mayor provecho del tiempo que disponemos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Paul’s church planting strategy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul's work was based largely on opening meetings in houses. These meetings would multiply up to becoming a Christian community that would influence the cities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, you realize by just taking a map of the world of the New Testament that Paul put aside several major cities where there is no evidence that any church was planted. His obvious goal was to plant churches in strategic cities. The cities were selected for their commercial and political importance, and geographic location. Paul knew that his life expectancy would not allow him to preach in every town as he could wish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That prompted him to adopt the strategy of planting churches in the cities of influence so that, afterwards, the gospel would spread throughout the region on which those cities were exercising their influence. An example of that is the city of Ephesus. Paul spent a large part of his ministry to strengthen the work in that city. The result was that from Ephesus the Gospel spread throughout the whole province of Asia. The same happened in other regions such as Achaia and Macedonia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes, the cities that he chose were not the largest and most populated ones, but those that had the greatest influence. In the work of church planting it is important to have an elaborated strategy. In that way, resources are optimized and the time we have available is better used.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8032645894412984663?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8032645894412984663/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8032645894412984663' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8032645894412984663'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8032645894412984663'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/03/la-estrategia-de-plantacion-de-iglesias.html' title='LA ESTRATEGIA DE PLANTACIÓN DE IGLESIAS DE PABLO'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-990297786564804848</id><published>2011-02-24T06:07:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-24T06:08:17.998-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA COMUNIÓN CONDUCE A LA EVANGELIZACIÓN</title><content type='html'>La experiencia de comunidad que se vive en una reunión de casa es uno de los elementos que la convierten en una fuerza evangelizadora. No existe una oposición como la de afirmar que si una célula fomenta la comunión descuidará la evangelización. O, por el contrario, que si se dedica a evangelizar se obstaculizará la comunión.&lt;br /&gt;En el modelo de la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento los dos elementos se sustentaban mutuamente. “De casa en casa partían el pan y compartían la comida con alegría y generosidad, alabando a Dios y disfrutando de la estimación general del pueblo. Y cada día el Señor añadía al grupo los que iban siendo salvos.” Hechos 2:46-47&lt;br /&gt;Claramente se nota en este pasaje, como en otros, que la comunión y la evangelización son dos caras de una misma moneda. La una no excluye a la otra. Lo cierto es que la una no es posible sin la otra. Cuando una célula fomenta la comunión entre sus miembros se vuelve una comunidad muy atractiva para un mundo despersonalizado. Y cuando se trabaja en evangelizar se profundizan los lazos de comunión dentro del grupo. Haber evangelizado bien, es haber construido una buena comunión. Tener una buena comunión, producirá evangelización.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Fellowship leads to evangelization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The experience of fellowship lived in a house meeting is one of the elements that make it an evangelizing force. There is no opposition as to assert that if a cell promotes fellowship it will neglect evangelization. Or, conversely, that if it engages in evangelism, fellowship will be hindered.&lt;br /&gt;In the model of the New Testament Church the two elements were mutually supportive. " and they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. "Acts 2:46-47&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is clearly seen in this passage, as in others, that fellowship and evangelization are the two sides of a same coin. The one does not exclude the other. The truth is that one is not possible without the other. When a cell promotes fellowship among its members it becomes a very attractive community to an impersonal world. And when you work in evangelizing the bonds of fellowship deepen within the group. To have evangelized right, is to have built good fellowship. Having good fellowship, will produce evangelization.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-990297786564804848?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/990297786564804848/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=990297786564804848' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/990297786564804848'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/990297786564804848'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/02/la-comunion-conduce-la-evangelizacion.html' title='LA COMUNIÓN CONDUCE A LA EVANGELIZACIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7026117806867456304</id><published>2011-02-18T08:42:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-18T08:42:48.667-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA COMUNIDAD COMO PARTE DE LA FE</title><content type='html'>Como lo he escrito en otras ocasiones, cuando un trabajo celular lleva ya bastante tiempo llega a convertirse en parte de la cultura cristiana de las personas. Nuevas generaciones de creyentes se suman a la actividad celular y, con ello, ingresan a las células de manera tan natural como ingresan a la vida cristiana.&lt;br /&gt;Las relaciones de comunidad se producen de manera, igualmente natural. Ser cristiano, incluye el ser miembro de una célula. Ser miembro de una célula proporciona una base para relacionarse con otras personas. El sentido de comunidad y de evangelización están implícitas en la vida cristiana dentro de una iglesia celular madura.&lt;br /&gt;Al hablar de madura, me refiero a aquellas iglesias que llevan más de una década en el trabajo y que sostienen la experiencia de lograr conversiones dentro del modelo. Las personas creen en una iglesia celular dinámica.&lt;br /&gt;Desde ese punto de vista, el papel del líder sigue siendo importante. Pero, no necesita hacer muchos esfuerzos para establecer esos lazos de amistad. La comunidad se estable por una inercia que viene de la fuerza de una tradición muy bien establecida.&lt;br /&gt;Claro, esa incorporación de la vida celular a la cultura evangélica es el resultado de un trabajo cotidiano, paciente y constante. Los que hoy siembran con esperanza, cosecharán con gozo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The community as part of the faith.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I have written on other occasions, after  some time a cell work becomes part of the Christian culture of the people. New generations of believers join in the cellular activity and, in this way they enter the cells as naturally as they enter in Christian life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Community relations occur as equally natural. Being a Christian includes being a cell member. To be a cell member provides a foundation for relating with others. The sense of community and evangelization are implicit in the Christian life within a mature cell church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Speaking of mature, I mean those churches who have more than a decade in the work and have the experience to achieve conversions within the model. People believe in a dynamic cell church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From that point of view, the leader's role remains significant. But do not need to make many efforts to stablish those friendship ties. The community is established by an inertia that comes from the strength of a well established tradition.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7026117806867456304?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7026117806867456304/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7026117806867456304' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7026117806867456304'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7026117806867456304'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/02/la-comunidad-como-parte-de-la-fe.html' title='LA COMUNIDAD COMO PARTE DE LA FE'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-850974056014920386</id><published>2011-02-10T08:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-10T08:55:34.638-08:00</updated><title type='text'>CÉLULAS CONTRA LA VIOLENCIA</title><content type='html'>San Salvador es la tercera ciudad más violenta del mundo. Después de Ciudad Juárez en México y San Pedro Sula en Honduras. El problema de la violencia de las pandillas es una de nuestras mayores preocupaciones como cristianos. Las razones por las que los jóvenes invierten inútilmente sus vidas en una pandilla son diversas. Pero, un elemento muy constante es la desintegración familiar.&lt;br /&gt;La iglesia, llamada a transformar las situaciones de pecado, hace un esfuerzo para contribuir a resolver el problema. Las células acercan a los cristianos a las personas y eso les permite conocer a los niños que están creciendo en hogares desintegrados. Animamos a los miembros de nuestras células a adoptar emocionalmente a un niño de esos. Es decir, a brindarle la atención, el cariño y la aceptación que no encuentran en sus hogares. Aceptación que irán a buscar en una pandilla a menos que los cristianos les brinden una alternativa.&lt;br /&gt;De esa manera, nuestras células permiten dar respuestas que otras medidas no han podido dar hasta hoy. No se debe olvidar que también poseemos más de 1,500 células infantiles donde se atiende un promedio de 22,000 niños. El tema de la violencia y del perdón se desarrollan como temas de enseñanza semanal. Los líderes de células infantiles han sido instruidos en asuntos tales como el abuso verbal, físico y sexual. La idea, es dar una solución al grave problema de violencia juvenil que vive nuestro país.&lt;br /&gt;Todo esto, por supuesto, aparte del trabajo que se hace con los enfermos, los matrimonios, los problemas de alcoholismo, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells against violence. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;San Salvador is the third most violent city in the world, after Ciudad Juarez in Mexico and San Pedro Sula in Honduras. The problem of gang violence is one of our major concerns as Christians. The reasons why young people needlessly spend their lives in a gang are diverse. But a very constant element is family disintegration.&lt;br /&gt;The church, called to transform situations of sin, makes an effort to help solve the problem. The cells bring Christians near to people and that allows them to meet children who are growing up in disintegrated homes. We encourage members of our cells to emotionally adopt one of those children. That is, to provide the care, affection and acceptance they are lacking in their homes. Acceptance they will go out looking for in a gang unless Christians provide them with an alternative. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Doing this, our cells can give answers in a way that other measures have failed to give today. Let’s not forget that we also have over 1,500 children cells where an average of 22,000 children is assisted. The theme of violence and forgiveness are developed as weekly teaching topics. The children’s cell leaders have been instructed on issues such as verbal, physical and sexual abuse. The idea is to give a solution to the serious problem of youth violence that is lived in our country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of this is besides, of course, the work done with the sick, the marriages, and the alcoholism problems, etc.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-850974056014920386?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/850974056014920386/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=850974056014920386' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/850974056014920386'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/850974056014920386'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/02/celulas-contra-la-violencia.html' title='CÉLULAS CONTRA LA VIOLENCIA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6322067249211846969</id><published>2011-02-03T04:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-03T04:55:37.302-08:00</updated><title type='text'>DE LA SINAGOGA A LAS REUNIONES CRISTIANAS</title><content type='html'>Durante el exilio en Babilonia, los judíos habían perdido el templo para continuar sus ceremonias. Eso les obligó a buscar otra forma de continuar la práctica de su fe. Fue entonces que comenzaron a reunirse en las casas para la lectura de las Escrituras y su comentario. Así nacieron las sinagogas.&lt;br /&gt;Después del regreso a su tierra y de la reconstrucción del templo, se conservó la costumbre de continuar reuniéndose como sinagogas en las casas. Las reuniones se realizaban en los aposentos altos que se reservaban para ese propósito. Las sinagogas, o reuniones en las casas, se convirtieron así en un elemento paralelo al culto en el templo.&lt;br /&gt;Siglos después, en época de Jesús, la sinagoga era ya una institución. Hoy existe evidencia que la casi totalidad de sinagogas que se mencionan en los evangelios eran, en realidad, reuniones en las casas.&lt;br /&gt;Después de la resurrección de Jesús, todos los discípulos que habían quedado eran judíos. Por ello, no debe extrañarnos que los apóstoles se reunieran en un aposento alto para orar. De igual manera, cuando la iglesia nace, no debe extrañarnos que siendo todos judíos, comenzaran a reunirse en las casas para reflexionar sobre su fe.&lt;br /&gt;Cuando el evangelio llegó a ciudades paganas, el modelo de reunión judía fue adoptado junto con el evangelio. Y así, las iglesias siguieron la tradición de reunirse en las casas. El evangelio se extendió de manera sorprendente y adquirió vitalidad. Eso duró aproximadamente unos 300 años hasta que la institucionalización se impuso. Hoy, debemos rescatar las lecciones del pasado para la revitalización del evangelio en nuestros días.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;From the synagogue to the Christian meetings. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During the exile in Babylon, the Jews had lost the temple to continue their ceremonies. That forced them to find another way to continue the practice of their faith. It was then when they began to gather in houses to read and comment on the Scriptures. This is how the synagogues were born.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After returning to their land and rebuilding the temple, the custom of continuing to gather as synagogues in houses was preserved. The meetings were held in the upper rooms that were reserved for that purpose. The synagogues, or gatherings in houses,  thus became a parallel element to the worship in the temple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Centuries later, in the time of Jesus, the synagogue was already an institution. Today there is evidence that almost all of the synagogues mentioned in the Gospels were actually meetings in houses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the resurrection of Jesus, all the disciples who had remained were Jews. Therefore it is no surprise that the apostles met in an upper room to pray. Similarly, when the church is born, being all Jews, we must not be surprised to see that they began to gather in the houses to reflect on their faith. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Gospel came to pagan cities, the Jewish meeting model was adopted along with the Gospel. And so, the churches followed the tradition of meeting in houses. The gospel amazingly spread and acquired vitality. That lasted for about 300 years until the institutionalization was imposed. Today, we must rescue the lessons of the past for the revitalization of the gospel in our days.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6322067249211846969?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6322067249211846969/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6322067249211846969' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6322067249211846969'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6322067249211846969'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/02/de-la-sinagoga-las-reuniones-cristianas.html' title='DE LA SINAGOGA A LAS REUNIONES CRISTIANAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1903448280578403247</id><published>2011-01-27T04:23:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-27T04:24:52.684-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS CÉLULAS Y EL MINISTERIO DEL EVANGELISTA</title><content type='html'>Como lo escribí en una ocasión anterior, es importante conectar el trabajo de las células con la celebración. Las células son el ambiente propicio para presentar el evangelio a los invitados; pero, una buena parte de esos invitados terminarán creyendo en la celebración. Por ese motivo, nuestras celebraciones de los días domingos son eminentemente evangelizadoras.  El domingo se considera que es el día para recoger el fruto de lo que por semanas se ha sembrado en las células. &lt;br /&gt;Tanto el trabajo celular como las celebraciones, se conectan así para la salvación de los perdidos de manera periódica. Este no es un esfuerzo que se haga ocasionalmente sino el trabajo de todas las semanas. Se establece así un ciclo entre células y celebración que se repite semana tras semana.&lt;br /&gt;Esto, no significa que se desprecien las oportunidades para recoger la cosecha que se presentan eventualmente. Por ejemplo, apreciamos mucho el ministerio de los evangelistas. Éstos tienen el don de atraer grandes cantidades de personas a la fe. A veces se ha pensado que el potencial evangelizador de una iglesia celular es tan grande que puede volver innecesario al evangelista.&lt;br /&gt;Por nuestra parte, creemos todo lo contrario. Vemos que el trabajo celular y el ministerio del evangelista son complementarios. Nunca está mejor preparada una iglesia para retener los resultados del ministerio de un evangelista que cuando es una iglesia celular. El modelo permite que la iglesia pueda dar seguimiento y atención a docenas o centenares de personas que crean en el Señor.&lt;br /&gt;Así, aunque el ciclo evangelizador se repite cada semana, no despreciamos sino mas bien apreciamos y aprovechamos la visita de los verdaderos evangelistas para beneficio de aquellos que aun no conocen al salvador.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VESIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells and the Ministry of the Evangelist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I wrote on a previous occasion, it is important to connect the work of the cells with the celebration. The cells are the proper environment for the presentation of the Gospel to the guests, but a good part of those guests will end up believing during the celebration. For this reason, our celebrations on Sundays are essentially evangelistic. Sunday is considered the day to reap the fruit of what has been sown for weeks in the cells.&lt;br /&gt;Both cell work and the celebrations are connected for the salvation of the lost in a periodic way. This is not an effort made occasionally, but an every week’s work. A cycle is established between cells and celebration that is repeated week after week.&lt;br /&gt;This does not mean that the opportunities to reap the harvest that occur eventually are neglected. For example, we greatly appreciate the ministry of the evangelists.They have the gift of attracting large numbers of people to the faith. It is sometimes thought that the evangelizing potential of a cell church is so big that it can turn the evangelist into someone that is unnecessary.&lt;br /&gt;For our part, we think the opposite. We see that the cell work and the ministry of the evangelist are complementary. The church is never better prepared to retain the results of the ministry of an evangelist than when it is a cell church. The model allows the church to do follow up and give assistance to dozens or hundreds of people who believe in the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;So, even though the evangelizing cycle is repeated every week, we do not despise but rather appreciate and take advantage of the visit of the true evangelists for the benefit of those who still do not know the Savior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 사역과 전도자의 사역&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀 사역과 축제예배를 연결하는 것은 중요하다. 셀들은 복음을 방문객들에게 소개하기 탁월한 장소이다. 하지만 이러한 방문객들은 결국에는 축제예배 중에 믿음을 갖게 될 것이다. 이러한 이유로 해서, 우리의 주일 축제예배는 근복적으로 복음적이다. 주일은 셀에서 주중에 뿌린 씨앗들이 열매를 맺어 추수하는 날이라고 볼 수 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀 사역과 축제예배 모두가 잃어버린 자를 구원한다는 점에서 일관되게 연결되어 있다. 이것은 이따금씩 되어지는 수고가 아니라, 지속적인 수고이다. 주기는 한 주 한 주 반복되어지는 셀과 축제예배 사이에서 만들어진다.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이것은 복음 전도자의 사역을 무시하는 처사가 아니다. 복음 전도자들은 많은 사람들에게 신앙을 더해주는 은사가 있다. 셀교회의 복음 전도적 잠재력이 너무나 커서 전도가가 더 이상 필요 없겠다고 생각한 적이 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서 우리는 그 반대라고 본다. 셀 사역과 전도자의 사역이 상보적임이라고 본다. 셀교회 만큼, 복음 전도자의 사역 열매들을 잘 장착시키도록 준비된 교회는 없다. 셀모델은 교회들이 후속조치를 취하고, 수십, 수백 명의 사람들이 주님을 영접하도록 지원한다.&lt;br /&gt;그래서, 복음전도적 주기가 매주 되풀이될지라도, 구세주를 아직 모르는 자들의 유익을 위해서 복음 전도자의 심방을 무시하지 않으며, 그들의 유익을 인정한다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1903448280578403247?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1903448280578403247/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1903448280578403247' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1903448280578403247'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1903448280578403247'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/01/las-celulas-y-el-ministerio-del.html' title='LAS CÉLULAS Y EL MINISTERIO DEL EVANGELISTA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8501617988024695925</id><published>2011-01-20T04:33:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-20T04:34:42.294-08:00</updated><title type='text'>CELEBRACIÓN Y CÉLULAS EN ELIM</title><content type='html'>En nuestra experiencia, la conexión entre la célula y la celebración es muy fuerte. Esta conexión la construimos en base a los siguientes elementos:&lt;br /&gt;1. El concepto que todo líder maneja. Las células tienen un carácter fundamentalmente evangelizador. Esa evangelización no estará completa hasta que las personas asistan a la iglesia, se bauticen en agua y comiencen alguna función de servicio en la celebración.&lt;br /&gt;2. Las invitaciones que se hacen a través de radio y televisión. En ellas se insiste ante el gran público para que asistan tanto a las células como a las celebraciones. Ya que nuestras reuniones de células se realizan en día sábado, es fácil concentrar la invitación en ese día particular.&lt;br /&gt;3. El transporte hacia la iglesia. Cada supervisor organiza con el núcleo de las células la renta de un autobús.  El propósito es el de ofrecer transporte gratuito a las personas que deseen asistir a la celebración. De esa manera se facilita el traslado y se fortalece la asistencia a las reuniones de celebración.&lt;br /&gt;4. El enfoque del programa de la célula. En el se presenta a la célula como una extensión de la iglesia. Se señala la pertenencia a Elim. Al final, los anuncios también incluyen información sobre la iglesia, sus horarios de servicio, lugar, día y hora para abordar el autobús que les conducirá a la celebración.&lt;br /&gt;5. También es parte del mentoreo de los nuevos cristianos el animarles y acompañarles para que se conecten y asistan a la celebración.&lt;br /&gt;Las células no son entidades divorciadas de la celebración. Tampoco tienen como propósito sustituir a la celebración. Tampoco buscan desalentar a las personas para que asistan a la celebración ofreciéndoles una alternativa más cercana a su domicilio. Por el contrario, las células son brazos que prolongan el poder de atracción de la iglesia hacia sus celebraciones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Celebration service and cells at Elim.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In our experience, the connection between cell and celebration is very strong. We build this connection based on the following elements:&lt;br /&gt;1. Evangelism. The cells have a fundamentally evangelizing character. That evangelization will not be complete until people attend church’s celebration, are baptized in water and start a service function in the celebration.&lt;br /&gt;2. The invitations that are made through radio and television. Through these we insist that the public attend both cell and celebration. Since our cell meetings are held on Saturday, it is easy to concentrate the invitation to each particular day and event.&lt;br /&gt;3. The transportation to the church. Each supervisor organizes with the cell’s core to rent a bus. The purpose is to provide transportation to those who wish to attend the celebration. In that way, the mobilization is facilitated and the attendance to the celebration is strengthened.&lt;br /&gt;4. The cell’s key role. The cell is presented as an extension of the church. At the end of each cell, announcements are made that include information about the church, its service schedule, place, date and time to board the bus, etc.&lt;br /&gt;5. Celebration and cell play a role in mentoring new Christians.&lt;br /&gt;The cells are not entities divorced from the celebration. Nor are they seeking to discourage people to attend the celebration by offering an alternative closer to their domicile. On the contrary, the cells are arms that extend the power of the church’s attraction toward its celebrations.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8501617988024695925?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8501617988024695925/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8501617988024695925' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8501617988024695925'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8501617988024695925'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/01/celebracion-y-celulas-en-elim.html' title='CELEBRACIÓN Y CÉLULAS EN ELIM'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2146764392671615088</id><published>2011-01-13T18:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-13T18:53:33.580-08:00</updated><title type='text'>OBSTÁCULOS PARA LA MULTIPLICACIÓN</title><content type='html'>Los dos grandes obstáculos para lograr la multiplicación celular son la falta de evangelismo y la falta de líderes. Cuando los miembros de una célula descuidan la dimensión evangelizadora pronto se encontrarán atrapados por dinámicas internas que los harán olvidarse de los perdidos.&lt;br /&gt;El aspecto evangelizador se pierde cuando la célula es vista solo como una reunión para tener comunión o para la edificación de los cristianos. Esos dos elementos son importantes pero deben balancearse con la evangelización. Si el evangelismo es dejado de lado, la célula perderá vitalidad y no se multiplicará.&lt;br /&gt;El evangelizar provee de continuo elemento humano que se coloca en contacto con el evangelio y, de esa manera, la posibilidad de nuevas conversiones y de crecimiento numérico de la célula se incrementa.&lt;br /&gt;No obstante, la maduración de la célula es solo una parte del panorama. El otro elemento importante es la multiplicación de los líderes. La multiplicación de las células depende de la multiplicación de los líderes. Si no hay nuevos líderes, no hay multiplicación. Por ese motivo, el evangelismo debe estar conectado con la Ruta del Líder y ésta con la formación de nuevos líderes. De esa manera, se establece un flujo que va de la conversión al liderazgo. Así, se multiplicarán tanto los líderes como las células.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Obstacles for multiplication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The two major obstacles to cell division are the lack of evangelism and the lack of leaders. When cell members neglect the evangelizing dimension, they will soon find themselves trapped by internal dynamics that will make them forget about the lost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The evangelistic aspect is lost when the cell is seen only as a meeting for fellowship or for Christians’ edification. Those two elements are important but must be balanced with evangelization. If evangelism is neglected, the cell will lose vitality and will not multiply.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evangelizing provides continuous human element that is placed in contact with the Gospel and, in that way, the possibility of new conversions and of numerical growth of the cell increases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, the maturation of the cell is only part of the landscape. The other important element is the multiplication of leaders. The multiplication of cells depends on the multiplication of leaders. Without new leaders, there is no multiplication. For this reason, evangelism must be connected to the Leaders’ Route, and this, with the formation of new leaders. Thereby, a flow is established that goes from the conversion to the leadership. In this way, both leaders and cells will multiply.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2146764392671615088?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2146764392671615088/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2146764392671615088' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2146764392671615088'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2146764392671615088'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/01/obstaculos-para-la-multiplicacion.html' title='OBSTÁCULOS PARA LA MULTIPLICACIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-325782317428227250</id><published>2011-01-07T06:40:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-07T06:41:43.927-08:00</updated><title type='text'>¡NO DESECHES A NADIE!</title><content type='html'>Joel Comiskey ha escrito en otras ocasiones sobre el tiempo que toma la multiplicación de una célula de una región del mundo a otra. Ha hablado que en Latinoamérica toma un aproximado de seis meses para que una célula madure  y se multiplique, en Europa ese tiempo es de dos años.&lt;br /&gt;Cada quien debe ubicarse en su contexto particular para no desarrollar expectativas excesivas a la hora de fijar sus metas de multiplicación, pero tampoco para establecer plazos demasiado laxos.&lt;br /&gt;Independientemente del tiempo en cada contexto, la gran pregunta continúa siendo: ¿qué hacer con aquellas células que no se multiplican? Algunos han respondido que se deben clausurar. Nuestra posición en Elim es que no se debe desechar a ningún líder y no se debe cerrar ninguna célula. Si la multiplicación no se está produciendo es porque algo anda mal. Puede ser que el problema sea con el líder, puede ser que sea con la dinámica interna de la célula.&lt;br /&gt;Pero esas dos cosas son remediables. Es tarea de los supervisores el examinar e identificar las debilidades. Luego, deben esforzarse por suplir los elementos que hacen falta. Jesús nunca desechó a nadie por incompetente, les ayudó a ser competentes. En el trabajo celular nada se debe desechar. No se trata de deshacerse de los eslabones débiles sino de convertirlos en eslabones fuertes. No debemos restar fuerzas sino sumar. Todos caben en el Reino de Dios y Jesús a nadie hecha fuera.&lt;br /&gt;Situaciones como el pecado pueden conducir a cesar a un líder por un tiempo de restauración. Pero aún eso, es tiempo de restauración. Es un período de ayuda para luego seguir adelante con nuevas fuerzas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Do not discard anyone!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joel Comiskey has written on other occasions about the time it takes the cell multiplication from one region of the world to another. He has spoken that in Latin America it takes six months aproximately for a cell to mature and multiply, in Europe this time is of two years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone should be positioned in their particular context in order to avoid developing excessive expectations when setting their multiplication goals, but also to avoid setting too lax time limits.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regardless of the time in each context, the big question remains: what to do with those cells that do not multiply? Some have answered these should be closed. Our position at Elim is that you must not discard any leader and should not close any cell. If multiplication is not happening it is because something is wrong. The problem maybe with the leader, might be with the cell’s internal dynamic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But those two things are remediable. It is the coaches’ task to examine and identify weaknesses. Then, they should strive to supply the elements that are needed. Jesus never discarded anyone for incompetence, he helped them to be competent. In the cell work nothing should be discarded. It is not about getting rid of the weak links but of making them strong links. We must not subtract strength but insted add strength. There is room for everyone in the Kingdom of God and Jesus will not cast out anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Situations like sin can lead to dismiss a leader for a time of restoration. But even that, it's restoration time. It is a period of support to move forward later on with renewed strength.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;어느 누구도 해고하지 말라&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;죠엘은 일전에 셀이 세상의 어느 한 지역에서 또 다른 지역으로 번식하는데 시간이 걸린다고 썼다. 라틴 아메리카에서 셀이 성숙해져서 번식하는데 6개월 정도 걸리는 반면, 유럽에서는 2년 정도 걸리기도 한다고 말했다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;번식 목표를 세울 때 과도한 기대치를 피하기 위해서 모든 사람들이 그들의 특정한 상황을 알아야 할 것이다. 다른 한편으로, 바를 너무 낮추지 않는 것도 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;각각의 상황속에서 시간과는 상관없이, 큰 질문이 남아있다: 번식하지 않는 이러한 셀들을 데리고 당신은 무엇을 하는가? 어떤 이들은 번식하지 않는 셀들은 닫아야 한다고 믿는다. 엘림교회에서 우리는 어떠한 리더도 버리지 않으며, 어떠한 셀도 문을 닫지 않는다. 번식이 일어나지 않는다면, 고칠 필요가 있는 어떤 잘못이 있기 때문이라는 것이다. 문제점은 리더가 될 수도, 셀의 내적 역동성이 될 수도, 다른 어떤 문제가 될 수도 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;평가하고 문제점을 확인하고 해결책을 제시하는 것이 코치의 임무이다. 예수님은 무능력하다고 해서 어떤 사람을 버리신 적이 결코 없으셨다. 차라리, 예수님은 그 사람을 도와 온전케 하셨다. 셀 사역에서 어느 누구도 해고하거나 버려서는 안 될 것이다. 약한 고리를 뽑아내지 않고, 그것들을 강한 고리를 만드는 것이다. 우리는 힘을 공제하지 말고, 힘을 추가시켜야 한다. 모든 사라믇ㄹ이 하나님 나라 안에서 나름대로의 공간이 있다. 예수님께서는 어느 누구도 내던지지 않을 것이다. &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;죄와 같은 상황들은 회복의 시간을 위해 리더 면직을 시킬 수 있다. 하지만 심지어 제자훈련 중에도, 회복이 일어난다. 나중에 새 힘을 얻어서전진해 나가도록 후원하는 시간인 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-325782317428227250?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/325782317428227250/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=325782317428227250' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/325782317428227250'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/325782317428227250'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2011/01/no-deseches-nadie.html' title='¡NO DESECHES A NADIE!'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4038215319283698586</id><published>2010-12-16T06:51:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-16T06:53:12.990-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA MULTIPLICACIÓN DE LÍDERES Y DE CÉLULAS.</title><content type='html'>La forma usual de multiplicación celular en Elim es la de madre a hija. De una célula madura (madre) se produce una multiplicación para dar paso a una nueva célula (hija) con un nuevo líder y parte del núcleo de la célula madre.&lt;br /&gt;Nuestra norma es que cada líder debe tener bajo su responsabilidad una sola célula y cada célula debe reconocer a su respectivo líder. Desde esa premisa, ninguna nueva célula puede llegar a existir sin tener un líder designado. Por ese motivo, nuestro énfasis se encuentra en la multiplicación de los líderes antes que en la multiplicación celular. Nuestra concentración es en la multiplicación de los líderes, la multiplicación celular vendrá por añadidura.&lt;br /&gt;Otro ministerios lo han expresado en los siguientes términos: las células no se multiplican, son los líderes los que se multiplican. Esta forma de decir las cosas es muy absolutista. No obstante, transmite una verdad. Es la verdad de la importancia que tiene la multiplicación de líderes para que las células, a su vez, se multipliquen.&lt;br /&gt;Estas son las mismas razones por las que en nuestros controles estadísticos no se registra en ningún lugar el número de células. Solamente cuenta la cantidad de líderes. Otros datos que recogemos son la asistencia, las conversiones, los bautismos en agua.&lt;br /&gt;La Ruta del Líder es fundamental para lograr la multiplicación de líderes y el trabajo de los mentores es vital para consolidar a los cristianos como nuevos líderes. Esas son las claves para la multiplicación celular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Leaders and cells multiplication.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The usual form of cell multiplication in Elim is of mother to daughter. From a mature cell (mother) there is a multiplication to make way for a new cell (daughter) with a new leader and part of the mother’s cell core.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our norm is that every leader must have under his responsibility, one single cell and each cell must recognize their respective leader. From that premise, any new cell can come to exist without having a designated leader. For this reason, our emphasis is on leader’s multiplication rather than on cell multiplication. Our focus is on the multiplication of leaders, the cell multiplication will be added unto you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other ministries have expressed this thought as follows: the cells do not multiply; the leaders are who multiply. This way of saying is very absolutist. However, it conveys a truth. It is the truth of the importance that leaders multiplication has, for the cells to multiply as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are the same reasons why in our statistical controls the number of cells is not registered anywhere. It counts the number of leaders only. Other information we collect are attendance, conversions, and baptisms in water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Leaders Route is fundamental to the multiplication of leaders and the mentors work is vital to consolidate Christians as new leaders. These are the keys to cell multiplication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;리더들과 셀 번식&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서 셀 번식의 일반적인 형태는 엄마-딸 번식이다. 성숙한 엄마 셀로부터, 새로운 리더와 핵심이 함께 하는 새로운 딸 셀을 낳는 방식이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;오랜 경험을 통해서, 엘림교회는 각각의 리더들이 하나의 셀그룹만을 가져야 한다는 규칙을 세웠다(과거에는 어떤 리더들은 하나 이상의 셀그룹을 인도했다). 각각의 셀그룹은 그들 각자의 리더를 알고 있어야 한다. 이 규칙을 명심하면서, 엘림교회의 강조점은 셀번식보다는차라리 리더 번식에 있다. 우리의 포커스는 리더 번식으로, 그 결과 셀 번식이 된다. 셀들은 번식하지 않는다. 리더들이 번식한다.&lt;br /&gt;우리의 통계에서, 셀 숫자가 어느 지역에서는 집계되지 않는 이유들이 있음을 보여주고 있다. 엘림교회는 리더들의 숫자만을 계수하다. 우리는 셀 참석자 수, 회심 숫자, 세례 숫자 등을 수집한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;일전에도 언급했듯이, 리더 훈련 트랙이 리더 번식의 토대이다. 멘토링 사역 또한 새로운 리더로서 신자들을 훈련시키는 중요한 사역이다. 이러한 것들이 셀 번식의 열쇠이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4038215319283698586?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4038215319283698586/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4038215319283698586' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4038215319283698586'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4038215319283698586'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/12/la-multiplicacion-de-lideres-y-de.html' title='LA MULTIPLICACIÓN DE LÍDERES Y DE CÉLULAS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1181415453856994751</id><published>2010-12-09T05:13:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-09T05:15:37.899-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LA MULTIPLICACIÓN CELULAR Y LA GRAN COMISIÓN.</title><content type='html'>Jesús entregó a su iglesia la Gran Comisión de ir por todo el mundo y predicar el evangelio a toda criatura. Desde entonces, la iglesia de todos los tiempos se ha esforzado por llevar la buena noticia de salvación a todo lugar.&lt;br /&gt;La evangelización a través de las células en los hogares es una estrategia para el cumplimiento de la Gran Comisión. Consecuentemente, el trabajo celular procura ser expansivo. La multiplicación es la clave para la penetración evangelizadora en las comunidades.&lt;br /&gt;En la actualidad, casi la mitad de la población mundial vive en grandes ciudades. Y esa es una tendencia que continúa creciendo. La iglesia cuenta con una excelente herramienta de penetración para las grandes ciudades en el trabajo celular. Pero la estrategia solamente será de penetración cuando la multiplicación sea la meta de cada célula. Si la célula se encierra en sí misma para la comunión o el discipulado exclusivamente, perderá su poder de penetración y de expansión. La célula perderá vitalidad porque se olvidará del mundo perdido en tanto que se ocupa de los intereses de los que ya son cristianos.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, si la célula mantiene como su meta la multiplicación, se mantendrá abierta para recibir a los necesitados y pasará de casa en casa hasta lograr permear significativamente con el evangelio a las ciudades. Las células deben multiplicarse porque tenemos una Gran Comisión que sigue siendo una tarea pendiente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cell multiplication and the Great Commission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus handed in his church the Great Commission to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. Since then, the church of all times has sought to bring the good news of salvation to all places.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Evangelization through home cells is a strategy for fulfilling the Great Commission. Consequently, the cell work seeks to be expansive. Multiplication is the key to evangelistic penetration in the communities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, almost half of the world’s population lives in large cities. And that's a trend that continues to grow. The church has in the cell work an excellent penetration tool for large cities. But the strategy will be of penetration only when multiplication becomes the goal of every cell. If the cell is enclosed in itself for fellowship or discipleship only, it will lose its penetration and expansion power. The cell will lose vitality because it will forget the lost world while dealing with the interests of those who are already Christians.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But if the cell maintains the multiplication as its goal, it will remain open to receive those in need and it will go from house to house until it significantly succeeds in permeating the cities with the gospel. The cells must be multiplied because we have a Great Commission that still remains as a pending task.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 번식과 대위임령&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;예수님께서 온 세상으로 가서 복음을 전하라는 대위임령을 모든 피조물에게 주셨다. 그 이후, 모든 시대의 교회들이 구원의 좋은 소식을 온 땅에 전하려고 애썼다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;가정 셀들을 통한 전도는 대위임령을 성취하기 위한 전략이다. 결과적으로, 셀 사역은 확장을 추구한다. 번식은 지역사회를 침노하는 전도의 열쇠이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;오늘날, 세계 인구의 반 이상이 대도시에 살고 있다. 계속해서 성장해 갈 것이다. 교회는 대도시를 침노하는 탁월한 도구로서 셀들을 가지고 있다. 하지만 그 전략은 번식이 모든 셀들의 목표가 될 때만이 이루어질 것이다. 셀들이 제자훈련이나 친교에만 무게를 둔다면, 그 침노와 확장의 힘은 잃게 될 것이다. 이미 그리스도인이 된 자들의 관심사들만을 다룬다면, 잃어버린 세상은 잊혀지게 되기 때문에 셀은 그 생명력을 잃게 될 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀이 번식에 그 목표를 둔다면, 곤궁한 자들을 영접하는 일을 계속하게 될 것이며, 복음을 들고 도시를 침투하는 일에 의미 있는 성공을 거둘 때까지 집에서 집으로 다닐 것이다. 그러므로, 셀들은 번식해야 한다. 왜냐하면 여전히 미결 상태로 남아 있는 임무로서 대위임령이 우리에게 있기 때문이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1181415453856994751?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1181415453856994751/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1181415453856994751' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1181415453856994751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1181415453856994751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/12/la-multiplicacion-celular-y-la-gran.html' title='LA MULTIPLICACIÓN CELULAR Y LA GRAN COMISIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8270972342626058453</id><published>2010-12-02T08:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-02T08:36:28.438-08:00</updated><title type='text'>EL EVANGELISMO COMO ESTILO DE VIDA</title><content type='html'>El evangelismo como estilo de vida.&lt;br /&gt;En una iglesia celular que ha llegado a la madurez, la historia de una persona que llega a la conversión se produciría de la siguiente manera: la persona es invitada a asistir a una célula. En ella se encuentra con una presentación del mensaje del evangelio. Muy probablemente terminará creyendo después de dos o tres semanas.&lt;br /&gt;Una vez hecha su profesión de fe, comenzará a asistir una vez por semana a la Ruta del Líder. Mientras tanto, continuará reuniéndose en la célula y en la celebración. A su alrededor todo el ambiente es de acción evangelizadora. La persona misma se suma a otros que ya comparten su fe como parte de su vida cristiana.&lt;br /&gt;Para esta persona el presentar el evangelio a otras personas se vuelve algo muy natural. Pronto estará hablando de Jesús a su familia, amigos y vecinos. Adquirirá experiencia en la evangelización. Aprenderá, haciendo. No ha recibido mayor formación en el campo teórico pero en el práctico el evangelismos ha sido el ambiente que lo vio nacer y crecer. Es lo que ha visto hacer a otros cristianos.&lt;br /&gt;En una palabra, el evangelismo llega a ser una forma de vida. No se ve como una actividad a la que se dedica cierto tiempo de manera eventual, sino que es parte de la vida diaria. Esto, más o menos, es lo que debería ocurrir con cada cristiano en una iglesia celular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Evangelism as a lifestyle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a cell church that has reached maturity, the story of a person who becomes a convert will go in the following way: the person is invited to attend a cell. The message of the Gospel is presented to the person there. This person will most likely end up believing after two or three weeks.&lt;br /&gt;Once he’s made his profession of faith, he will begin to attend the Leader’s Route once a week. Meanwhile, he will continue to gather in the cell and in the celebration service. Around him all the atmosphere is of evangelizing action. The person himself joins up with others who already share his faith as part of their Christian life.&lt;br /&gt;For this person to present to others the gospel becomes something very natural. He will soon be talking to his family, friends and neighbors about Jesus. He will gain experience in the evangelization. He´ll learn by doing. Has not received much training in the theoretical field but in the practical field evangelism has been the environment that saw his birth and growth. Is what he has seen other Christians do.&lt;br /&gt;In one word, evangelism becomes a way of life. It is not seen as an activity to which he devotes some time on a casual basis, but it is part of an everyday life. This is, more or less, what should happen with every Christian in a cell church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;삶의 방식으로서의 전도&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;성숙에 이른 셀교회에서, 회심한 자의 이야기는 자주 다음과 같다: 그 사람이 셀에 참여하도록 초대 받는다. 복음 메시지가 거기서 그 사람에게 제시되어진다. 그 사람이 2-3주 내에 신자가 된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;일단 그/그녀가 신앙을 고백하게 되면, 그 사람은 일주일에 한번씩 리더의 일과/훈련에 참여할 것이다. 그는 계속해서 셀과 축제예배에 모일 것이다. 그는 전도의 분위기에 둘려 싸인다. 그 사람은 신앙생활의 일부로서 이미 자신들의 신앙을 나누는 다른 사람들과 함께 하게 된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이 사람에게 있어서 복음을 다른 사람들에게 소개하는 것은 매우 자연스러운 일이 된다. 그는 곧 그의 가족, 친구, 이웃들에게 예수님에 대해서 이야기하게 될 것이다. 그는 전도하는 법에 대한 경험이 쌓일 것이다. 그는 행함으로써 배우게 될 것이다, 심지어 그가 이론적으로 많은 훈련을 받지 못했을지라도. 왜 그런가? 전도는 그가 거듭나고 그의 신앙 안에서 성장하기 시작하는 환경이 되었기 때문이다. 그는 다른 신자들이 어떻게 행하는지를 본 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;한 마디로 해서, 전도는 삶의 방식이다. 그때 그때마다 약간의 시간을 내서 행하는 활동이 아니라, 매일 일상활동의 일부로 본다. 모든 셀교회에서 행해야 할 것이 바로 이것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8270972342626058453?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8270972342626058453/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8270972342626058453' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8270972342626058453'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8270972342626058453'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/12/el-evangelismo-como-estilo-de-vida.html' title='EL EVANGELISMO COMO ESTILO DE VIDA'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5688254671347323359</id><published>2010-11-25T04:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-25T04:43:21.122-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='células'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='evangelismo'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='radio'/><title type='text'>TOMANDO LOS AIRES CON EL EVANGELIO.</title><content type='html'>Si bien Iglesia Elim es una iglesia celular, su trabajo de evangelización no se limita solamente a las células. Elim desarrolla otras acciones evangelizadoras de las cuales solo deseo mencionar, por hoy, el uso de los medios de comunicación.&lt;br /&gt;El uso de la radio y de la televisión es para nosotros una de las herramientas más poderosas de evangelización. En la actualidad, la iglesia posee seis emisoras de radio y un canal de televisión propios. El fruto que se ha cosechado es incontable y la influencia en el país innegable.&lt;br /&gt;Elim comenzó a trabajar con células en septiembre de 1986. Dos meses antes, también se había adquirido la primera emisora de radio. En 1988 se utilizó por primera vez el estadio de la ciudad para un evento al que asistieron aproximadamente 25,000 personas. La iglesia había triplicado sus miembros.&lt;br /&gt;Al ver lo que me parecía una enorme multitud, le pregunté a quien era el Pastor Principal en ese tiempo: ‘¿Qué ha producido el crecimiento? ¿Las células o la radio?’ El Pastor se quedó pensativo unos segundos y luego me respondió: ‘No sé.”&lt;br /&gt;La pregunta no tuvo respuesta hasta 1995 en la ciudad donde entonces yo era Pastor: Santa Ana. Sucede que en Santa Ana la iglesia completó su transición al modelo celular en 1987 y produjo a partir de entonces un crecimiento sostenido. Pero en 1995 adquirió su primera emisora de radio. Esa diferencia de 8 años entre los dos eventos mostró claramente el efecto de cada elemento. El crecimiento proporcionado por estas dos herramientas de evangelización era equiparable. Desde entonces, usamos los medio de comunicación como otra manera de anunciar el evangelio en una iglesia celular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Taking over the air with the Gospel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though Elim Church is a cell church, its evangelization work is not confined to cells only. Elim develops other evangelistic actions, of which I only want to mention, for now, the use of the media.&lt;br /&gt;The use of radio and television is for us one of the most powerful evangelization tools. Currently, the church has six radio stations and one television channel of its own. The harvested fruit is uncountable and is undeniable the influence in the country.&lt;br /&gt;Elim began working with cells in September 1986. Two months earlier, the first radio station had also been acquired. In 1988 the city’s stadium was first used for a rallie attended by approximately 25.000 people. The church had tripled its members.&lt;br /&gt;As I saw what appeard to me like a huge crowd, I asked to the former senior pastor at that time: “What has produced the growth? The cells or the radio?” The Pastor remained thinking for a few seconds and then replied: "Don´t know."&lt;br /&gt;The question was not answered until 1995, in the city where I was then a Pastor: Santa Ana. Happens that in Santa Ana the church completed its transition to the cellular model in 1987 and produced thereafter a sustained growth. But acquired in 1995  its first radio station. That difference of 8 years between the two elements clearly showed the effect of each one. The growth provided by these two evangelization tools was comparable. Since then, we use the media as another way of proclaiming the gospel in a cell church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;방송과 복음&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;심지어 엘림 교회가 셀교회라 할지라도, 전도의 일이 셀에게만 제한되지 않는다. 엘림이 수년에 걸쳐서 개발한 한 가지 전략은 미디어 활용이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;라디오와 텔레비전의 활용이 전도와 교회 성장에 효과적인 도구들이라는 것을 발견했다. 현재, 교회는 6개의 라디오와 한 개의 텔레비전 채널을 가지고 있다. 이러한 커뮤니케이션 매체와 전도가 상상치 못한 방법으로 전국에 영향을 끼치고 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림은 1986년 9월에 셀로 사역을 시작하였다. 그보다 두 달 전에, 엘림은 첫 라디오 방송국을 취득하였다. 1988년에 경기장을 처음 사용했는데, 약 25,000명의 사람들이 모였다. 교회는 3배로 성장하였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이토록 엄청난 군중을 보게 되면서, 나는 전 담임 목사님께 그 당시에 질문했다: "무엇이 성장을 낳았습니까? 셀인가요? 라디오인가요?" 목사님은 몇 초 동안 생각하더니 답변했다, "저도 모르겠어요!" &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;질문은 1995년 되기 까지, 그러니깐 내가 그 당시에 목회하고 있었던 엘살바도르, 산타아나 시에서 있을 때까지 답을 얻지 못했다. 산타아나에 있는 교회가 1987년에 셀 모델로 전환을 완수하고, 지속적이고, 강건한 성장을 시작하였다. 1995년에 산타아나 교회는 첫 라디오 방송국을 취득했고, 예전과 같은 수준의 성장을 또한 보았다. 8년간의 차이에서, 셀과 라디오 모두가 전도와 제자훈련에 중요한 요소였음을 보여주었다.&lt;br /&gt;그 이후, 우리는 셀교회에서 복음 선포의 도구로서 미디어를 활용한다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5688254671347323359?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5688254671347323359/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5688254671347323359' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5688254671347323359'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5688254671347323359'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/11/tomando-los-aires-con-el-evangelio.html' title='TOMANDO LOS AIRES CON EL EVANGELIO.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4366445756607422215</id><published>2010-11-18T20:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-18T21:00:02.264-08:00</updated><title type='text'>LAS CÉLULAS Y LA EVANGELIZACIÓN.</title><content type='html'>Cuando la iglesia primitiva se reunía en la casas se ganaba el favor del pueblo y cada día se añadían nuevos creyentes (Hch. 2:47). La presencia de la comunidad de creyentes por las casas fue un elemento decisivo para la expansión del evangelio. Obviamente, la iglesia no comenzó a reunirse con el fin de evangelizar. Lo hicieron siguiendo su tradición cultural. Pero el resultado fue un poderoso efecto evangelizador.&lt;br /&gt;No obstante, la evangelización no es el único componente de las células. También existe el componente de la comunión y de la edificación. El balance entre los tres elementos solamente lo puede dar Jesús como centro de la célula. Ninguna célula podrá ser saludable si no posee el elemento evangelizador.&lt;br /&gt;Si la iglesia en China ahora crece más que ninguna otra en el planeta, es porque sus reuniones se realizan en grupos pequeños en las casas. Es una penetración que nadie puede detener. De allí que el evangelismo es un elemento decisivo del trabajo celular.&lt;br /&gt;Nosotros, con conciencia de todo ello, no debemos dudar en imprimir a la célula su carácter evangelizador y no olvidar que la multiplicación es la meta que se debe perseguir siempre. La relación entre evangelismo y trabajo celular es una combinación que ha probado a lo largo de la historia su eficacia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells and evangelization.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the early church met in houses it won the favor of the people and every day new believers were added (Acts 2:47). The presence of the believers’ community by the houses was a deciding element for the expansion of the gospel. Obviously, the church did not begin to meet to evangelize as a purpose. They did it following their cultural tradition. But the result was a powerful evangelist effect.&lt;br /&gt;However, evangelism is not the only component of the cells. There is also the component of fellowship and edification. The balance between the three elements can only be giving by Jesus as the center of the cell. No cell can be healthy if it doesn’t have the evangelist element.&lt;br /&gt;If the church in China now grows more than any other on the planet, is because their meetings are held in small groups in houses. It is a penetration that no one can stop. There for, evangelism is a key element of the cell work.&lt;br /&gt;We, with awareness of it all, must not hesitate to imprint into the cell its evangelist character and must not forget that the multiplication is the goal to be pursued always. The relation between evangelism and cell work is a combination that has proven its effectiveness throughout history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;전도와 셀사역&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;초대교회가 집에서 모였을 때, 사람들의 칭송을 들으며, 날마다 새신자들이 늘어났다(사도행전 2:47). 집에서 집으로 모이는 신자들의 임석은 복음 확산에서 강력한 충격을 주었다. 초대교회는 본래 "복음을 전하기" 위해서 집에서 모인 것이 아니었다. 차라리, 전도는 예수님과 다른 사람들을 향한 그들의 사랑의 자연스러운 결과였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;전도만이 셀의 구성요소가 아니다. 친교와 몸 세움 또한 구성요소이다. 전도, 친교, 그리고 몸 세움 사이의 균형은 예수님께서 셀라이프의 중심일 때만이, 일어날 수 있다. 동시에, 전도의 요소가 없다면, 셀은 건강해질 수 없다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;중국의 교회들이 다른 나라들에 비해서 지금 성장하고 있는 이유 중 하나는 그들의 모임이 집에서 소그룹으로 모이기 때문이다. 전도는 셀 사역의 열쇠이기 때문에 어느 누구도 멈출 수 없는 침투이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀에서 번식을 가져다 주는 전도를 주저하면 안 된다. 전도와셀 사역의 관계는 교회 역사를 통해서 그 효과성이 검증되어 온 승리의 조합이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4366445756607422215?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4366445756607422215/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4366445756607422215' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4366445756607422215'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4366445756607422215'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/11/las-celulas-y-la-evangelizacion.html' title='LAS CÉLULAS Y LA EVANGELIZACIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7045641337841188551</id><published>2010-11-11T07:16:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-11T07:18:08.398-08:00</updated><title type='text'>GANANDO A LAS PERSONAS CON ACCIONES.</title><content type='html'>Para que el evangelismo en la célula sea efectivo, se debe colocar énfasis en los hechos más que en las palabras. Se sabe que las personas reaccionan más ante las obras de los cristianos que ante sus palabras. Por esa razón, en Iglesia Elim, nuestros líderes han sido entrenados para evangelizar siguiendo los siguientes cinco pasos:&lt;br /&gt;1. Elaborar una lista de familiares y amigos (oikos).&lt;br /&gt;2. Escoger de esa lista dos personas para comenzar a orar por su conversión todos los días.&lt;br /&gt;3. Estrechar la amistad con esas dos personas, servirles y presentarles a otros cristianos.&lt;br /&gt;4. Hacer obras de amor e interés a favor de ellos.&lt;br /&gt;5. Invitarlos a la célula.&lt;br /&gt;Como puede notarse, la invitación a la célula es el paso final. Antes de ello, se hace necesario definir el círculo de influencia y realizar un esfuerzo sistemático de oración y obras de amor a favor de esas personas. Cuando un cristiano se ha dedicado a cultivar acciones de amor, es muy difícil que las personas se resistan a una invitación a una célula. Enfatizamos que esas obras de amor no deben ser usadas sólo como un anzuelo para cazar invitados, sino que deben ser auténticas y sinceras. Este esfuerzo ha llevado mucho fruto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Winning people with actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For evangelism to be effective in the cell, emphasis must be placed on facts rather than in words. It is known that people react more to the works of Christians rather than to their words. For that reason, at Elim Church, our leaders have been trained to evangelize using the following five steps:&lt;br /&gt;1. Make a list of family and friends (oikos).&lt;br /&gt;2. Choose from this list two people to start praying for their conversion every day.&lt;br /&gt;3. Strengthened ties of friendship with those two people, serve them and introduce them to other Christians.&lt;br /&gt;4. Do works of love and concern for them.&lt;br /&gt;5. Invite them to the cell.&lt;br /&gt;As it can be noticed, the invitation to the cell is the final step. Before this, it is necessary to define the circle of influence and to make a systematic effort of prayer and works of love for these people. When a Christian has dedicated himself to cultivating loving actions, the people will find it hard to resist an invitation to a cell. We emphasize that these works of love are not to be used only as a hook to catch guests, but must be genuine and sincere. This effort has bared much fruit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;행함으로 사람들을 예수님께로&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;전도가 셀에서 효과적이기 되기 위해서, 말보다는 행동에 강조점을 두어야 한다. 불신자들은 단지 신자들의 말보다는 차라리 그들의 행동에 더 이끌린다. 이러한 이유로 해서, 엘림교회에서, 우리 리더들은 다음과 같은 5가지 단계들을 통해서 전도 훈련을 받고 있다:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1. 가족과 친구들(오이코스) 리스트를 작성하라.&lt;br /&gt;2. 리스트에서 두 사람을 선택해서, 그들의 회심을 위해 날마다 기도하기 시작하라.&lt;br /&gt;3. 그 두 사람을 섬기고, 그들을 다른 신자들에게 소개하면서, 그들과 친구관계를 돋독히 하라.&lt;br /&gt;4. 그들을 사랑하고 돌보는 사역을 행하라.&lt;br /&gt;5. 그들을 셀에 초대하라.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀에 어떻게 초대하는가가 마지막 단계임을 주목하라. 이를 하기 전에, 영향력의 원을 규정하고 이들을 위해 기도하고 사랑의 일을 행하는 체계적인 수고가 필수적이다. 신자가 사랑의 행위에 헌신할 때, 셀 초대에 거부하기 힘들어진다는 점을 발견하게 될 것이다. 사랑의 이러한 수고는 손님들을 붙잡아 두기 위한 용도로서가 아니라, 진지하고 진실되어야 함을 강조한다. 이 수고는 많은 열매를 맺게 한다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7045641337841188551?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7045641337841188551/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7045641337841188551' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7045641337841188551'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7045641337841188551'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/11/ganando-las-personas-con-acciones.html' title='GANANDO A LAS PERSONAS CON ACCIONES.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2709380939350744828</id><published>2010-11-04T21:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T21:48:15.459-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL EVANGELISMO Y LA ORACIÓN.</title><content type='html'>La oración es un elemento fundamental para el evangelismo. El nuevo nacimiento es una obra poderosa que solamente el Cristo resucitado puede efectuar. La labor de quien evangeliza es limitada, solo puede exponer el mensaje del evangelio pero nada más. Solo Dios puede hacer que la semilla sembrada germine.&lt;br /&gt;Por estos motivos, y siendo la evangelización clave en el trabajo celular, nuestros líderes dan gran énfasis a la oración por los perdidos. Muchos se reúnen una hora antes de la reunión de célula para orar por sus invitados. De igual manera, en las reuniones de planificación, que se realizan una vez por semana, un momento importante es cuando se recogen los nombres de los invitados para la próxima reunión de célula y se hace una oración unida por la conversión de esas personas.&lt;br /&gt;La expresión que el ejército del Señor avanza de rodillas es una realidad en el trabajo celular. Solo de rodillas se puede caminar hacia la multiplicación.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Evangelism and prayer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prayer is an essential element for evangelism. The new birth is a powerful work that only the risen Christ can make. The work of whom evangelizes is limited he can only present the message of the gospel but nothing else. Only God can make the sown seed germinate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For these reasons, and being the evangelization key in the cell work, our leaders give great emphasis on prayer for the lost. Many gather an hour before the cell meeting to pray for their guests. In the same way, in the planning meetings, which take place once a week, an important moment is when the names of the guests are listed for the next cell meeting and a united prayer is made for those people’s conversion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The expression that the Lord's army advances on their knees is a reality in the cell work.

Consecuentemente, nuestra Ruta del Líder es un programa de formación que lleva a los nuevos conversos desde su nuevo nacimiento hasta el liderazgo.&lt;br /&gt;Dado que cada día hay nuevas personas que creen, es necesario iniciar un nuevo curso de entrenamiento cada semana. Esto significa que cada semana existen no menos de 26 diferentes niveles del curso que se están impartiendo simultáneamente. Uno por cada una de las 26 lecciones que comprende el curso completo. A fin de facilitar las cosas, el curso de entrenamiento se imparte los días domingos.&lt;br /&gt;Dado que en el local de nuestra iglesia no tenemos aulas para la enseñanza, el curso se imparte en casas de hermanos. Los candidatos no tienen que viajar hasta la iglesia. Se entrenan en su mismo vecindario. &lt;br /&gt;El entrenamiento es impartido por los Pastores de Zona. Cuando los cursos se multiplican los Pastores también se apoyan en Supervisores que les ayudan en la tarea de entrenar los nuevos líderes. Algunos de nuestros Pastores deciden reunir los grupos que llevan el mismo nivel, ya avanzado, con el propósito de dar mayor uniformidad al entrenamiento. Pero, no todos lo hacen igual. Aunque el material es único, existe la flexibilidad para que cada Pastor pueda impartirlo de manera que llene las particularidades de su zona y de su gente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Leader’s route under way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our training course for new leaders departs from the desire to make of every Christian a cell leader. Consequently, our Leader’s Route is a training program that leads new converts from their new birth to leadership.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since every day there are new people who believe, it is necessary to start a new training course each week. This means that every week there are at least 26 different levels of the course that are being given simultaneously. One for each one of the 26 lessons that covers the entire course. To facilitate things, the training course is imparted on Sundays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since in our church’s building we don’t have classrooms for teaching, the course is imparted in the brethrens’ houses. The candidates don’t have to drive to church. They train in their same neighborhood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The training is imparted by Zone Pastors. When the courses multiply Pastors also rely on Coaches who assist them in the task of training new leaders. Some of our Pastors decide to gather the groups that are on the same advanced level, with the sole purpose to give greater uniformity to the training. But, not everyone does it the same way. Although the material is unique, there is flexibility so that each Pastor can impart it in a way that it may fulfill the particularities of their zone and people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;신자를 온전케 하여 리더로&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;새로운 리더들을 위한 우리의 훈련 코스는 모든 신자들이 셀 리더가 될 수 있다는 아이디어에서 시작한다. 결과적으로, 우리의 훈련 트랙은 새로운 회심자를 새 탄생에서 리더십까지 인도하는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;매일 새로운 회심자들이 있기에, 매주 새로운 훈련 코스를 시작하는 것이 필요하다. 이것은 매주 최소한 26개의 레벨 과정이 동시에 제공되어지고 있다는 소리다(예, 전체 과정 26과에 대해서 각각의 과마다 사람들이 있다는 것이다). 모든 것을 원활히 하기 위해서, 훈련 코스는 주일에 실시한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;교회 건물 안의 다양한 교실 공간을 갖추고 있지 못하기에, 집에서 훈련을 실시한다. 이런 식으로 해서, 훈련생들은 교회까지 따로 가지 않아도 된다. 차라리, 그들은 그들이 살고 있는 이웃 집에서 훈련을 받고 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;지역장(지역 목사)이 코스를 가르친다. 훈련 코스는 번식되고 있기에, 지역장이 코치(감독)에 의지하여 새로운 리더 훈련을 돕고 있다. 우리의 어떤 목사님들은 훈련 코스에 보다 통일성을 제공하기 위해서 어떤 상급 레벨 과정에서는 훈련 코스들을 한데 합치지만, 모두가 그런 것은 아니다. 비록 교재가 동일할지라도, 각각의목사님들이 융통성을 가지고 특정한지역의 특수성을 고려하면서 사용해 나간다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4883163206033080739?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4883163206033080739/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4883163206033080739' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4883163206033080739'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4883163206033080739'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/10/la-ruta-del-lider-en-marcha.html' title='LA RUTA DEL LÍDER EN MARCHA.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1085988347808391893</id><published>2010-10-21T21:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-21T21:56:33.179-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL CURSO DE ENTRENAMIENTO DE LÍDERES EN ELIM.</title><content type='html'>Nuestro curso de entrenamiento para líderes fue durante mucho tiempo de lo más sencillo que se pueda imaginar. Solamente cuatro lecciones que se impartían en igual cantidad de semanas. En la medida que el tiempo pasó, y al comprender que el trabajo celular es una estrategia de liderazgo comenzamos a buscar una manera mejor de entrenar a nuestros líderes.&lt;br /&gt;Revisamos los materiales de entrenamiento de varias iglesias celulares en el mundo. Sin embargo, el común denominador era que resultaban ser cursos largos y fuera del contexto de nuestro país. Ante ese hecho, decidimos crear nuestro propio curso de entrenamiento.&lt;br /&gt;Los elementos que necesitábamos eran los siguientes: un curso no tan largo pero tampoco tan corto como para dejar una formación insuficiente. Un curso sencillo, sin tecnicismos que pudieran desalentar a los nuevos creyentes. Un curso cuyos contenidos pudieran llevar a una persona desde su conversión hasta el liderazgo.&lt;br /&gt;Al final, nuestro curso fue completado con 26 lecciones para ser impartidas en seis meses. Están diseñadas para que cada lección se imparta en una hora. Comienza de manera muy básica, de acuerdo a la comprensión de un nuevo converso y termina con detalles técnicos del trabajo celular.&lt;br /&gt;El crear nuestro propio material permitió superar las dificultades que he mencionado al principio. Posiblemente a otras iglesias les resulte mejor adoptar un material ya elaborado y que responda a su cultura y particularidades. Es una buena forma de comenzar. Más adelante Dios dirá si es necesario crear un curso de entrenamiento propio o no.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The leader’s training course at Elim.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our leader’s training course was for a long time of the simplest imaginable. There were only four lessons imparted in as many weeks. As the time passed, and alter realizing that cell work is a leadership strategy we started looking for a better way to train our leaders.&lt;br /&gt;We reviewed the training materials of several cell churches in the world. However, the common denominator was that they turn out to be long courses and outside the context of our country. Given that fact, we decided to create our own training course.&lt;br /&gt;We needed the following elements: not such a long course but not to short either&lt;br /&gt;as to leave insufficient training, a simple course, without technicalities that could&lt;br /&gt;discourage new believers. A course which contents could lead a person from his&lt;br /&gt;conversion to leadership. In the end, our course was completed with 26 lessons to be imparted in six months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are designed so that each lesson is given in an hour. It starts in a very basic way, according to the understanding of a new convert and ends with technical details of the cell work.&lt;br /&gt;Creating our own material allowed to overcome the difficulties I mentioned at the beginning. It’s possible that other churches may find it better to adopt a ready-made material that responds to their culture and particularities. It is a good way to start. God will tell you later on if it is necessary to create your own training course or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회는 훈련 교재를 어떻게 개발하였는가&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;오랫 동안, 우리의 리더 훈련 코스는 너무나 심플하다. 4주 동안 가르치는 내용은 단지 4개뿐이었다. 셀 사역은 리더십 전략임을 깨달았을 때, 리더를 훈련시키는 더 나은 방법들을 찾기 시작하였다. 전세계의 다양한 셀교회들의 훈련 교재들을 살펴보았다. 하지만 이러한 훈련 코스들은 너무나 길고 우리 문화에 맞지 않다는 것을 발견하였다. 그래서 우리는 우리 자신의 훈련 코스를 만들기로 결정하였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;우리는 이러한 요소들이 필요했다:&lt;br /&gt;• 너무 길지 않으면서도 또한 너무 짧지 않을 것&lt;br /&gt;• 심플한 코스, 새신자들을 낙망시킬 수도 있는 테크니컬한 요소들은 제외할 것&lt;br /&gt;• 회심에서 리더십으로 인도할 수 있는 코스여야 할 것&lt;br /&gt;결국, 우리의 코스는 6개월에 걸친 26과로 이루어졌다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;각각의 과들은 한 시간 분량으로 디자인되었다. 새신자의 이해력에 따라서, 매우 기본적인 방식으로 시작해서, 셀 사역의 테크니컬한 세부사항까지 다루는 것으로 끝맺는다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;우리 자신의 교재를 만드는 일은 앞부분에서 언급한 여러움들을 극복하도록 해주었다. 많은 교회들이 그들 문화와 특수성에 부응하는 잘 준비된 교재를 채택하는 것이 보다 쉬울 것이다. 그리 시작하는 것이 좋다. 당신 자신의 훈련 코스를 만드는것이 필요하다면, 하나님께서 나중에 말씀하실 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1085988347808391893?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1085988347808391893/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1085988347808391893' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1085988347808391893'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1085988347808391893'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/10/el-curso-de-entrenamiento-de-lideres-en.html' title='EL CURSO DE ENTRENAMIENTO DE LÍDERES EN ELIM.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1041019834323339380</id><published>2010-10-15T02:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-15T02:21:51.699-07:00</updated><title type='text'>ENTRENE PARA EVANGELIZAR.</title><content type='html'>Como se dijo anteriormente, el líder es un cristiano que comparte su fe con un grupo pequeño de amigos en una casa. El líder no es necesariamente un predicador. Cuando se piensa del líder como un predicador, la célula se ve expuesta a incurrir en el síndrome del mini-culto. Por ello, el líder debe ser animado a solamente presentar su fe en torno al material para la célula que le ha sido entregado.&lt;br /&gt;Desde esa perspectiva, el entrenamiento para ser líder es muy diferente que el que se necesita para ser un predicador. Un líder necesita ser entrenado en relación a la manera efectiva de compartir su fe con personas que no tienen conocimiento del evangelio.&lt;br /&gt;Una manera de contribuir a ese propósito es establecer una diferencia entre el entrenamiento de los líderes y el entrenamiento de los predicadores. La formación del líder debe mantenerse básica, corta y sin complicaciones.  Mientras que los predicadores dirigen sus enseñanzas a cristianos, el líder lo hace a no creyentes. Mientras que el objetivo fundamental del predicador es la formación teológica, el del líder es la evangelización. Mientras que el predicador ejerce su ministerio en el edificio de la iglesia, el líder lo hace en las casas. El entrenamiento debe enfocarse y limitarse a esas esferas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Train to evangelize.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As stated earlier, the leader is a Christian who shares his faith with a small group of friends in a house. The leader is not necessarily a preacher. When one thinks of the leader as a preacher, the cell is exposed to incur into the mini-service syndrome. Therefore, the leader should be encouraged to only present his faith revolving around the cell material that has been given to him.&lt;br /&gt;From that perspective, the training to be a leader is very different than the one needed to be a preacher. A leader needs to be trained in relation to the effective way to share his faith with people who have no knowledge of the gospel.&lt;br /&gt;One way to contribute to this purpose is to establish a difference between leaders’ training and preachers’ training. The leader’s formation must be maintained basic, short and uncomplicated. While preachers direct their teachings to Christians, the leader directs it to non believers. While the primary objective of the preacher is the theological formation, the leader’s is evangelization. While the preacher exercises his ministry in the church’s building, the leader exercises it in the houses. The training must be focused and limited to those areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;전도 훈련&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;일전에도 나누었듯이, 리더는 집에서 친구들이라는 작은 그룹과 함께 신앙을 나누는 기독교인이다. 리더는 반드시 설교자일 필요는 없다. 리더를 설교자로 생각할 때, 셀은 미니 봉사 신드롬(mini-service)이라는 함정에 빠진다. 따라서 리더는 그에게 주어진 셀 교재의 테마를 붙잡도록 격려 받아야 할 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그러한 견해에서 보면, 리더가 되는 훈련은 설교자가 되는데 필요한 것과는 매우 다르다. 리더는 복음을 알지 못하는 자들과 신앙을 효과적으로 나누는 방법과 관련해서 훈련 받는 것이 필요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이렇게 하는 한 가지 방법은 두 종류의 훈련을 행하는 것이다. 셀 리더를 위한 것 하나, 장래의 목회자/설교자를 위한 것 하나. 리더 훈련은 단순하고 복잡하지 말아야 할 것이다. 설교자가 신자들에게 가르침을 전하는 것이라면, 리더는 불신자에게 전하는 것이다. 설교자의 우선적인 목적은 신학적 기초인 반면에, 리더의 포커스는 전도이다. 설교자는 교회건물 안에서 사역을 행하는 반면에, 리더는 집에서 행한다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;훈련이 이러한 영역에 포커스를 맞추고 제한되어야만 한다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1041019834323339380?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1041019834323339380/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1041019834323339380' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1041019834323339380'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1041019834323339380'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/10/entrene-para-evangelizar.html' title='ENTRENE PARA EVANGELIZAR.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7353848280770814244</id><published>2010-10-07T06:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-07T06:44:27.530-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL ENTRENAMIENTO PARA NUEVOS LÍDERES</title><content type='html'>Un líder es básicamente un cristiano que comparte el evangelio con un grupo de amigos en una reunión pequeña en una casa. Su eficacia está determinada por su facilidad para presentar el mensaje del evangelio tanto en su conducta como en sus palabras.&lt;br /&gt;Todo cristiano posee, por el nuevo nacimiento, la potencialidad para convertirse en un líder. Esa potencialidad debe ser desarrollada por los ministros del evangelio cuya tarea es la de ‘perfeccionar a los santos para la obra del ministerio’.&lt;br /&gt;El entrenamiento para llegar a ser un líder reside en el desarrollo de las capacidades para la labor de evangelismo. El entrenamiento es importante porque es la razón por la que el Señor Jesús entregó a su iglesia a los ministros. Obviamente que un cristiano puede desarrollar una tarea de evangelismo sin haber recibido entrenamiento. Pero, en el modelo celular, el énfasis evangelizador ha logrado una especialización. Años de experiencia van acumulándose para convertirse en un estilo de vida. El entrenamiento tiene como fin forjar ese estilo de vida en los cristianos.&lt;br /&gt;El evangelismo puede adquirirse por iniciativa propia; pero, es mejor aprovechar la experiencia acumulada para transmitirla a los nuevos conversos y facilitar a ellos el camino que solamente se abrió por el esfuerzo, los fracasos y las victorias de quienes les precedieron. El entrenamiento de líderes es un procedimiento sabio. Es la forma de transmitir los valores del evangelio de una generación a la siguiente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;New leaders’ training.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A leader is basically a Christian who shares the gospel with a group of friends at a small meeting in a house. His effectiveness is determined by his ability to present the message of the gospel through his behavior as much as through his words.&lt;br /&gt;Every Christian has, because of the new birth, the potentiality to become a leader. That potentiality must be developed by the ministers of the gospel whose task is to "perfect the saints for work of the ministry”.&lt;br /&gt;The training to become a leader lies in the development of skills for the work of evangelism. Training is important because it is the reason why Jesus gave to his church the ministers. Obviously, a Christian can perform a task of evangelism without having received any training. But in the cell model, the evangelizing emphasis has achieved a specialization. Years of experience are accumulating to become a lifestyle. The training aims to build that lifestyle on Christians.&lt;br /&gt;Evangelism can be obtained by own initiative; but it is better to take advantage of the accumulated experience to pass it on to the new converts and to facilitate them with the path that was only opened through the efforts, failures and victories of their predecessors. Leaders’ training is a wise procedure. It is a way to pass on the Gospel’ values from one generation to the next.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;새로운 리더들을 위한 훈련&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;리더는 기본적으로 가정에서 작은 모임 때 친구들 그룹과 함께 복음을 나누는 신자이다. 그/그녀의 효과성은 라이프스타일과 말을 통해서 복음의 메시지가 소개되는 능력에 의해서 좌우된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;모든 신자들은, 새로 태어나기 때문에, 잠재적으로 리더가 되어야 한다. 그 잠재력은 "성도를 온전케 하여 사역의 일을 하게" 하는 일을 감당하고 있는 복음 사역자들에 의해서 개발되어야 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;리더가 되는 훈련은 복음 사역을 위해 기술 개발과 연결된다. 예수님께서 그의 교회에게 사역자들을 보내주신 이유는 사역의 일을 위해 성도를 준비시키기 위함이었다. 신자들은 어떠한 훈련을 받지 않고도 전도의 일을 수행할 수 있다. 하지만 셀 모델에서, 이 목적은 라이프스타일이 되기에 그들의 전도적 스킬들을 준비시키는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;전도는 우리 자신의 솔선을 통해서 일어날 수 있다. 하지만 다른 이들의 축적된 경험들이 더 유익을 가져다 준다. 새로운 회심자들은 그들보다 앞선 자들의 수고, 실패, 승리 등을 통해서 가장 잘 배우게 된다. 리더십 훈련은 지혜로운 절차이다. 한 세대가 다음 세대에게 복음의 가치들을전수하는 중요한 방식이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7353848280770814244?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7353848280770814244/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7353848280770814244' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7353848280770814244'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7353848280770814244'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/10/el-entrenamiento-para-nuevos-lideres.html' title='EL ENTRENAMIENTO PARA NUEVOS LÍDERES'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6362818420001158646</id><published>2010-09-30T06:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-30T06:56:27.029-07:00</updated><title type='text'>¿QUIÉN SUPERVISA AL PASTOR PRINCIPAL?</title><content type='html'>Joel ha explicado que la supervisión debe comenzar desde el Pastor Principal de toda iglesia celular. La gran pregunta es ¿quién supervisa al Pastor Principal si con él termina la estructura celular de la iglesia? Obviamente, la supervisión debe venir de alguien externo a la iglesia local.&lt;br /&gt;Dado que se trata del trabajo celular, los encargados de supervisar al Pastor Principal deben ser otras personas que conocen los principios y valores del modelo. Por su parte, el Pastor Principal debe tener la disposición de rendir cuentas cada vez que se le requiera.&lt;br /&gt;Otra forma de ser animado es asistiendo a conferencias sobre el tema celular, visitando otras iglesias celulares, leyendo libros sobre el tema, cultivando amistades que trabajan o conocen el sistema. Todos estos son elementos que permiten al Pastor no sentirse solo en una tarea como ésta. &lt;br /&gt;También se puede tener la supervisión de personas especializadas. Tal como sucede con la mayor parte de los miembros de la Directiva de JCG. Este es un privilegio que pueden disfrutar solamente unas pocas personas, pero es la manera más directa de tener una supervisión personalizada.&lt;br /&gt;Si usted es un Pastor Principal de una iglesia celular ¿quién le supervisa?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Coaching the Senior Pastor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joel has already explained that the coaching must start with the entire cell church’s Senior Pastor. The big question is who coaches the Senior Pastor if the church’s cell structure ends up with him? Obviously, the coaching should come from someone external to the local church.&lt;br /&gt;Since it is about cell work, the ones responsible for coaching the Senior Pastor must be other people who know the principles and values of the model. For his part, the Senior Pastor must be willing to give report every time on whatever he is requested.&lt;br /&gt;Another way to be encouraged is by attending conferences on cell work, visiting other cell churches, reading books on the subject, nurturing your friendship with those who work or know the system. All these are elements that allow the Pastor not to feel alone on a task such as this.&lt;br /&gt;You can also be coached by specialists, as it happens with most of the members of the JCG Board of Directors. This is a privilege that can only be enjoyed by a few people, but it is the most direct way to have a personalized coaching.&lt;br /&gt;If you are a cell church Senior Pastor, who coaches you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;누가 담임 목사님을 코치하는가&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코칭은 담임 목사님과 함께 시작해야 한다고 죠엘이 이미 설명했다. 큰 질문은 누가 담임 목사님을 코치하는가 이다. 담임 목사님을 코칭하는 자는 지교회 밖에 있는 외부인이어야 할 것임이 나에게는 자명한 것처럼 보인다. 코치는 또한 믿음이 가고 셀교회 사역을 체험한 자가 되어야 할 것이다. 그리고 담임 목사님은 그의 코치에게 기꺼이 경청하고, 요구하는 바를 행해야 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;담임 목사님이 격려를 얻을 수 있는 또 다른 방법은 셀교회 컨퍼런스에 참석하기, 셀교회들 탐방하기, 관련 주제의 책들 읽기, 그리고 셀 시스템을 행하거나 잘 아는 사람들과 친구관계를 쌓기 등에 의해서이다. 이 모든 것들이 담임 목사님으로 하여금 사역에서 연결되어 있고 코치 받고 있다는 느낌을 가져다 주는 데 도움이 된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;당신은 또한 전문가들에 의해서 코치를 받을 수 있다. 우리가 제공하는 코칭 사역을 받는 사람들처럼. 이것은 소수의 사람들에 의해서만 누릴수 있는 특혜이기는 하지만, 가장 직접적인 방법이기도 하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;당신은 어떤가? 만일 셀교회 담임 목사님이라면, 누가 당신을 코치하는가?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6362818420001158646?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6362818420001158646/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6362818420001158646' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6362818420001158646'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6362818420001158646'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/09/quien-supervisa-al-pastor-principal.html' title='¿QUIÉN SUPERVISA AL PASTOR PRINCIPAL?'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6496241545470449745</id><published>2010-09-23T05:43:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-23T05:44:50.384-07:00</updated><title type='text'>ESTRUCTURA Y VALORES DE LA SUPERVISIÓN</title><content type='html'>La naturaleza humana siempre se inclina por dar mayor valor a los aspectos tangibles que a los intangibles. Eso ocurrió con los fariseos. Jesús les acusó de ser muy meticulosos en el tema del diezmo pero a costa de sacrificar los grandes valores de la justicia y el amor (Lc. 11:42).&lt;br /&gt;La misma pauta se produce con el modelo celular. Existe una tendencia a dar gran relevancia a lo tangible, la estructura de supervisión, que a los grandes valores: el hacer discípulos, el cuidado, el estímulo, el ser mentores.&lt;br /&gt;Normalmente, cuando se enfatiza excesivamente el tema de la estructura de supervisión se tiende a descuidar los valores y principios de la supervisión. No existe una estructura que cuente con un mayor respaldo de Dios. Solamente existe el respaldo de Dios a los valores de la supervisión.&lt;br /&gt;Fijemos nuestra atención en el desarrollo y en la aplicación de esos valores y principios pues son, los que a la larga, producirán el fruto de la bendición de Dios. Una buena estructura de supervisión es toda aquella que permite la aplicación de esos principios. Cualquier estructura que lo permita será buena y bendecida por Dios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Structure and coaching values.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Human nature is always inclined to giving a greater value to the tangible aspects rather than the intangibles. That happened with the Pharisees. Jesus accused them of being very thorough in the subject of tithing but at the expense of sacrificing the great values of justice and love (Luke 11:42)&lt;br /&gt;The same pattern occurs with the cell model. There is a tendency to give great importance to the tangible, the coaching structure, rather than to the great values: making disciples, caring, encouragement, mentoring.&lt;br /&gt;Normally, when the subject of coaching structure is excessively emphasized, the coaching values and principles tend to be neglected. There isn’t a structure that can count on a greater support from God. God's support will be only over the coaching values.&lt;br /&gt;Let us fix our attention on the development and application of those values and principles since they are, which in the long run, will produce the fruit of God's blessing. A good coaching structure is any, which allows the application of those principles. Any structure that permits that will be good and blessed by God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;구조에서 코칭 원리들을 우선시 하기&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;인간 본성은 항상 무형보다는 유형에 더 큰 가치를 부여하는 경향이 있다. 바리새인들에게서도 이런 일이 일어났다. 예수님은 공의와 사랑이라는 더 큰 가치는 희생시키는 대가를 지불하면서, 십일조를 드리는 그들을 비난하셨다(누가복음 11:42).&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;동일한 패턴이 셀 모델에서도 일어날 수 있다. 제자 삼기, 돌보기, 격려와 멘토링이라는 무형의 가치들보다 차라리, 유형(예, 코칭 구조)에 더 큰 중요성을 부여하는 경향이 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코칭 구조가 지나치게 강조될 때, 코칭 가치들과 원리들은 소홀히 되는 경향이 있다. 하나님께서 다른 어떤 것들보다 더 축복하시는 단 하나의 어떤 코칭 구조를 나는 알지 못한다. 하나님은 코칭 가치들을 위해서 항상 후원하실 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 가치들과 원리들을 개발하고 적용하는 일에 집중하자. 장기적으로, 그것들은 하나님의 축복의 열매를 생산할 것이다. 최고의 코칭 구조는 코칭 원리들의 적용을 확대시켜나가는 것이라고 믿는다. 가치들을 강조하는 구조마다 하나님께서축복해 주실 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6496241545470449745?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6496241545470449745/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6496241545470449745' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6496241545470449745'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6496241545470449745'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/09/estructura-y-valores-de-la-supervision.html' title='ESTRUCTURA Y VALORES DE LA SUPERVISIÓN'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8117893750591519011</id><published>2010-09-16T16:06:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-16T16:08:22.119-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA ACCIÓN Y EL CUIDADO COMO ELEMENTOS DE LA SUPERVISIÓN.</title><content type='html'>El modelo de supervisión en iglesia Elim es el Jetro. El modelo lo recibimos del ejemplo de la iglesia del Pastor Cho en Corea del Sur. Dado que al principio no teníamos una definición precisa de las responsabilidades del supervisor, la tarea se concentraba en el trabajo de campo.&lt;br /&gt;Se esperaba que un supervisor pudiera visitar cada semana las células bajo su responsabilidad mientras se encontraban en curso. El énfasis se daba en la eficacia con la cual se realizaba el trabajo. El supervisor se aseguraba que las enseñanzas se estuvieran impartiendo apropiadamente, que la asistencia de invitados fuera aceptable, que se siguiera el programa de la célula, etc.&lt;br /&gt;Aunque no se puede negar que la labor del supervisor estaba centrada en la actividad y los resultados, no tengo la menor duda que ese fue un factor que imprimió gran dinamismo a nuestro trabajo.&lt;br /&gt;A partir de las enseñanzas de Joel, creo que debemos hacer ajustes en lo que se refiera al cuidado que el supervisor debe tener de sus líderes. Pero, eso no debe desviarnos del énfasis en la ejecución eficaz del trabajo. La clave se encuentra en obtener un balance. Porque el otro extremo también es contraproducente: el énfasis en el cuidado de los líderes mientras se descuida la ejecución del trabajo. Las cosas marcharán mejor cuando ambos aspectos encuentren su equilibrio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The action and care as elements of coaching.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The supervision model in Elim Church is Jethro. We received the model from the example of Pastor Cho's church in South Korea. Since at the beginning we did not have a precise definition of the responsibilities of the coach, the task was concentrated on the fieldwork.&lt;br /&gt;A coach was supposed to visit each week the cells under his/her responsibility while in progress. The emphasis was on the efficiency with which the work was done. The coach had to make sure that the teachings were being properly imparted, that the guests attendance was acceptable, that the cell’s agenda was followed, etc.&lt;br /&gt;Although you can not deny that the coach’s work was focused on the activity and results, I have no doubt that this was a factor that imprinted great dynamism to our work.&lt;br /&gt;From Joel’s teachings, I think we should make adjustments in regards to the care that the coach should have for their leaders. But this should not distract us from the emphasis on the work’s efficient execution. The key lies in having a balance. Because the other endpoint is also counterproductive: the emphasis in the care of the leaders while neglecting the work’s execution. Things will work better when both aspects find their balance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;코칭에서 행동과 돌봄 사이의 균형&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서 감독 시스템은 이드로 모델이다. 우리는 대한민국의 조용기 목사님의 모델을 수용했다. 셀교회로 전환하던 초기에, 코치의 책임들에 대해서 명확하게 이해하지를 못했다. 그래서 셀그룹들을 심방하는 것에 우선적으로 집중했다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코치는 그/그녀의 돌봄 하에 있는 셀들을 매주 방문하도록 되어 있었다. 그 강조점은 각 그룹들의 질적 컨트롤이다. 코치는 가르침들이 적절히 전달되고 있는지를 확실히 해야 했다. 그리고 손님들이 셀에 적절히 잘 있는지, 셀 아젠다를 따라서 잘 진행되고 있는지를 확실히 하는 역할을 수행했다. 비록 코치의 역할이 활동과 결과물에 대부분 비중을 두지만, 그것이 우리의 사역에 크나큰 역동성을 가져다 주는 핵심 요소라는데 의심의 여지가 없다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;죠엘에 따르면, 코치가 그/그녀의 리더들에게 제공하는 돌봄과 관련해서 조정이 있어야 한다는 것에 동의한다. 하지만 효과적인 으로 실행하지 못하도록 주의를 분산시키지는 말아야 할 것이다. 키는 균형을 가지는 것이다. 극단적으로 말해서, 실행과 질적 컨트롤은 소홀히 한 채 리더의 돌봄에만 집중하는 일이 가능하다. 두 측면 모두에서 균형이 있을 때, 일이 더 잘 될 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8117893750591519011?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8117893750591519011/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8117893750591519011' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8117893750591519011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8117893750591519011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/09/la-accion-y-el-cuidado-como-elementos.html' title='LA ACCIÓN Y EL CUIDADO COMO ELEMENTOS DE LA SUPERVISIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-5490395987206562458</id><published>2010-09-09T08:04:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-09T08:06:10.112-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CÓMO SER UN EXCELENTE SUPERVISOR.</title><content type='html'>Definir la función de un supervisor es algo que tomó a nuestra iglesia Elim varios años. Aunque hemos tenido supervisores desde que nuestro modelo comenzó, se pensaba que su función principal era la de velar porque cada líder alcanzara las metas de crecimiento. Adicionalmente, cada quien imprimía elementos extras como responsabilidades del supervisor.&lt;br /&gt;Por varios años traté de encontrar una formulación adecuada de las responsabilidades de un supervisor. Leí varios libros y manuales pero no puede encontrar algo que respondiera a nuestras necesidades. En una ocasión uno de nuestros pastores de distrito incluso sugirió eliminar la función de supervisor argumentando que serían más útiles como líderes. Hasta que llegó el momento en que conocí el libro de Joel Comiskey ‘Cómo ser un excelente asesor de grupos familiares’. En ese libro Joel presenta siete hábitos del supervisor: Reciba, escuche, anime, cuide, desarrolle y entrene, trace estrategias y desafíe.&lt;br /&gt;Al leer el libro pude, finalmente, comprender con claridad el papel clave del supervisor. El mismo Joel resume la tarea de un supervisor como ‘servir al líder y asegurar que se encuentre saludable.’ El libro de Joel me pareció tan adecuado y práctico que en nuestra reciente conferencia interna de crecimiento de la iglesia, enseñé los siete hábitos a nuestros líderes y supervisores.&lt;br /&gt;Para todos fue una experiencia muy gratificante. Colocó los puntos de referencia que han de guiar la labor de nuestros supervisores en el futuro. Lastimosamente, la edición en español del libro se encuentra agotada, pero supongo estará disponible la versión en inglés. Recomiendo encarecidamente la lectura del libro. Le resolverá muchos problemas y le ayudará a llenar muchos vacíos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;How to be a Great Cell Group Coach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Defining the role of a coach is something that took Elim, our church, several years. Although we have had coaches since our model began, it was thought that their main function was to ensure that every leader would reach their growth goals. Additionally, each coach would make his or her own additional rules, according to the needs in the district.&lt;br /&gt;For several years I tried to find a proper formulation of the coach’s responsibilities. I read several books and manuals but could not find anything that met our needs. On one occasion one of our district pastors even suggested to eliminate the coach’s role and simply turn everyone into a leader. Then I read Joel Comiskey’s book “How to be a Great Cell Group Coach.” In that book, Joel presents seven habits of effective coaches: receive/prayer, listen, encourage, care for, develop and train, plot strategies and challenge.&lt;br /&gt;When reading the book I could finally clearly understand the key role of the coach. Joel himself summarizes the work of a coach as to “serve the leader and ensure that he/she is healthy.” Joel’s book seemed to me so appropriate and practical that in our recent internal conference on church growth, I taught the seven habits to our leaders and coaches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a very rewarding experience for everyone. He set the benchmarks that should guide the work of our coaches in the future. Unfortunately, the Spanish edition of the book is out of print, but I believe the English version is available. I strongly recommend reading the book. It will solve your many problems and will help you fill many gaps.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;훌륭한 셀그룹 코치가 되는 법&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코치의 역할을 규정하는 것은 우리 엘림교회에서는 몇 년이 걸린 일이다. 비록 우리의 모델을 시작한 이후 코치들을 여러 명 두었지만, 그들의 주된 기능은 모든 리더들이 그들의 성장 목표에 도달하도록 하는 것이었다고 생각했다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;게다가, 각각의 코치들이 지역의 필요에 따라서 발생한 그/그녀 자신의 추가적인 역할들을 감당하였다.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;몇 년 동안 코치의 책임에 대한 적절한 공식을 찾으려고 노력했다.  나는 몇 권의 책들과 매뉴얼을 읽었다. 하지만 우리의 필요들을 채워주는 것을 찾을 수 없었다. 우리의 교구 목사님 한 분이 코치의 역할을 제외시키고, 그들 모두를 리더로 바꾸자고까지 제안했었다. 그러다가 죠엘 코미스키의 "셀그룹 폭발을 위한 코칭"을 읽게 되었다. 그 책에서, 죠엘은 7가지 습관의 코치를 제시한다: 공급받다/기도하다, 경청하다, 격려하다, 돌보다, 개발하고 훈련시키다, 전략을 세우다, 도전을 주다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이 책을 읽는 중에, 코치의 역할을 분명히 이해할 수 있게 되었다. 죠엘이 직접 코치의 사역을 "리더를 섬기고, 그/그녀를 확실히 건강하게 하는 것"으로 요약한다. 죠엘의 책은 나에게 적절하고 실용적인 책처럼 보였다. 교회성장에 대한 우리의 컨퍼런스에서, 나는 우리의 리더들과 코치들에게 7가지 습관들을 가르쳤다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이것은 모든 사람들에게 보상이 따르는 경험이었다. 장래에 우리의 코치들의 사역을 가이드할 벤치마크를 세워준 것이다. 이것은 당신의 문제를 푸는데도 도움이 될 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-5490395987206562458?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/5490395987206562458/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=5490395987206562458' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5490395987206562458'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/5490395987206562458'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/09/como-ser-un-excelente-supervisor.html' title='CÓMO SER UN EXCELENTE SUPERVISOR.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4896298361778578046</id><published>2010-09-02T06:51:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-02T06:52:51.449-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA LABOR DEL SUPERVISOR.</title><content type='html'>Un conocido evangelista expresó: ‘Cuesta un 10% de esfuerzo llevar una persona a Cristo y un 90% de esfuerzo mantenerlo en Cristo’. Este principio es también verdad con respecto al liderazgo. Es todo un trabajo hacer de un miembro un líder, pero cuesta mucho más trabajo lograr que ese líder continúe como tal de manera persistente.&lt;br /&gt;Esa es la labor del supervisor. Tal propósito se logra cuidando de cada líder de manera que pueda sentirse estimulado, saludable y apreciado en sus esfuerzos. Si el trabajo celular es una estrategia de desarrollo del liderazgo, sin duda que el papel del supervisor resulta ser vital en la tarea.&lt;br /&gt;Normalmente las iglesias celulares poseen un porcentaje de deserción de líderes. Ese porcentaje puede ser mayor o menor dependiendo de la eficacia de sus supervisores. La deserción se produce principalmente cuando las personas se sienten instrumentalizadas para alcanzar metas. Pero, por el contrario, si las personas se sienten atendidas como líderes, desearán continuar activos y las metas se alcanzarán como consecuencia.&lt;br /&gt;La labor del supervisor es básicamente de cuidado pastoral. ¿Qué otras funciones considera usted que debe realizar el supervisor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Coach’s work.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A prominent evangelist said: “It costs 10% of effort to bring a person to Christ and 90% of effort to keep him in Christ." This principle is also true with regard to leadership. It's a whole work to make a member a leader, but it is even harder to get that leader to persistently continue as such.&lt;br /&gt;That is the coach’s work. Such a purpose is achieved by taking care of each leader so that he can feel stimulated, healthy and appreciated in his efforts. If the cell work is a leadership development strategy, there is no doubt that the coach’s role is found to be vital in the task.&lt;br /&gt;Normally the cell churches have a leaders’ dropout percentage. This percentage may be higher or lower depending on the effectiveness of their coaches. Desertion occurs mainly when people feel manipulated to achieve goals. But, on the contrary, if people feel they are being attended as leaders, they’ll want to remain active and the goals will be achieved as a result.&lt;br /&gt;The work of the coach is basically of pastoral care. What other functions do you consider to be performed by the coach? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;코칭이 셀 시스템을 꾸준히 건강하게&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;유명한 전도자가 말하기를: "한 영혼을 그리스도께로 데려가기 위해서는 수고의 10%가 요구되고, 그를 꾸준히 그리스도 안에 머물게 하는 것이 수고의 90%가 요구된다." 이 원리는 또한 리더십에서도 적용된다. 멤버를 리더로 개발하기 위해서는 많은 일이 요구된다. 하지만 그 리더가 지속적으로 열매 맺는 리더로 남아 있게 하기 위해서는 심지어 더 많은 수고가 요구된다. 그래서 코칭이 필요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코치는 리더를 돌본다. 그렇게 해서 리더는 그의 수고를 인정 받고, 건강하고, 자극 받고 있음을 느낀다. 셀사역의 본질이 리더십 개발이기 때문에, 코치의 역할은 이 사역에서 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀교회들은 리더의 탈락 비율이 어느 정도 있다. 이 비율은 코치의 효과성에 따라 더 높거나 더 낮아질 수 있다. 리더들이 목표를 성취하도록 조종당하고 있다고 느낄 때, 자주 일어난다. 하지만 반대로, 리더가 돌봄 받고 있고, 양육받고 있고, 세움 받고 있다고 한다면, 그들은 계속해서능동적으로 사역하기를 원하며, 자연스럽게 자신들의 목표를 성취해 나갈 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;코치의 첫번째 사역은 리더들에 대한 목양적 돌봄이라고 나는 믿는다. 코칭의 다른 기능들은 무엇이라고 보는가?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4896298361778578046?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4896298361778578046/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4896298361778578046' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4896298361778578046'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4896298361778578046'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/09/la-labor-del-supervisor.html' title='LA LABOR DEL SUPERVISOR.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7509895702768860715</id><published>2010-08-26T09:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-26T09:16:32.550-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL CAMINO HACIA LOS RESULTADOS.</title><content type='html'>Cuando una iglesia ha completado su transición al modelo celular, no solamente debe mantenerse firme en su ajuste a lo que el Nuevo Testamento presenta como  iglesia sino también ante la tentación de adoptar modificaciones dramáticas.&lt;br /&gt;Normalmente, esas modificaciones se presentan con el ofrecimiento de resultados extraordinarios al corto plazo. Esos resultados enfatizan el elemento del crecimiento numérico por arriba de los demás principios del modelo celular. El problema es que cuando no se obtienen lo resultados anunciados las personas se desalientan. Y no solamente con respecto a la novedad adoptada sino con respecto a todo el trabajo celular.&lt;br /&gt;Por ello, es mejor continuar de manera paciente el trabajo de vivir los valores y principios del modelo celular que son los que, a la larga, producirán los frutos que a Dios le agradan. No existen atajos, fórmulas mágicas ni recetas infalibles. Sólo hay un camino para el fruto: el trabajo perseverante. No permita que nada le desvíe de su objetivo.

Those results emphasize the element of numerical growth above the other principles of the cell model. The problem is that when you do not get the announced results, people are discouraged. And not only with regard to the adopted novelty but to all the cell work.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore, it is best to continue with patience the work of living the cell model’s values and principles, which are the ones that in the long run, will produce the fruits that pleases God. There are no shortcuts, no magic formulas or infallible recipes. There is only one way to the fruit: the persevering work. Do not allow anything to deflect you from your goal. In the end, God will bless you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀모델에서 딴길로 빠지도록 하는 유혹들을 피하기&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;교회가 셀모델로 전환을 이루었을 때, 신약의 셀모델로 확고히 서도록 조정해야만 할뿐 아니라, 드라마틱한 변화들을 이루고자 하는 유혹들이 있게 된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;보통, 이러한 변화들은 짧은 기간에 엄청난 결과들을 가져다 주면서 나타난다. "새로운 변화들"로 인해서 생겨난 이러한 결과들은 셀 모델의 다른 원리들보다 숫자적 성장을 우월하게 부각시킨다. 문제는, 바라던 결과들을 얻지 못할 때, 사람들은 실망하게 된다는 점이다. 그들은 새로운 시기한 일로 인해 실망할 뿐만 아니라, 셀 사역에 대해서도 실망한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그러므로, 장기적인 것으로, 그리고 하나님을 기쁘시게 하는 열매를 낳는 셀모델의 가치와 원리로 끈기 있게 지속적으로 사역하는 것이 최상이다. 지름길은 없다. 마법 공식이나 잘못 될 수 없는 요리 비법도 없다. 열매로 가는 길은 오직 하나뿐이다: 인내. 목표로부터 이탈케 하는 그 어떤것도 허락하지 말라. 결국에는 하나님께서 당신을 축복하실 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7509895702768860715?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7509895702768860715/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7509895702768860715' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7509895702768860715'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7509895702768860715'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/08/el-camino-hacia-los-resultados.html' title='EL CAMINO HACIA LOS RESULTADOS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7609147136645201618</id><published>2010-08-19T07:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-19T07:42:59.597-07:00</updated><title type='text'>TRES PASOS PARA LA TRANSICIÓN Y LA INTEGRACIÓN.</title><content type='html'>El Pastor Roberto Lay, quien dirige un excelente programa de instrucción sobre el modelo celular en Brasil, resume el tema de la transición y la integración de una manera que, por hoy, me parece la más clara y práctica.&lt;br /&gt;Para Roberto Lay son tres pasos los que deben conducir a la integración de ministerios durante la transición de una iglesia tradicional a una celular:&lt;br /&gt;1- Añada. A los ministerios que tiene ya operando simplemente añada el trabajo celular, sin tocar nada de lo anterior.&lt;br /&gt;2- Adapte. Una vez el modelo celular se ha establecido comience a adaptar sus ministerios alrededor del modelo celular.&lt;br /&gt;3- Suprima. Cuando se han adaptado todos los programas que se pueda al modelo celular quedarán otros que no podrán hacerlo. Pero para cuando eso suceda, la vida de las células habrá tomado tal fuerza que los programas ya no resultarán tan llamativos. Entonces, suprímalos. Nadie lo notará.&lt;br /&gt;Esos tres pasos, si se aplican con sabiduría, serán una excelente guía para lograr una transición sin sobresaltos y que termine con una integración ajustada a las condiciones de la congregación local.&lt;br /&gt;¿Comentarios?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Three steps for transition and integration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Roberto Lay, who runs an excellent instruction program on the cell model in Brazil, sums up the issue of transition and integration in a way that, up to now, I think is the most clear and practical way.&lt;br /&gt;For Roberto Lay three steps should lead to integration of ministries during the transition from a traditional church to a cell church:&lt;br /&gt;1 - Add. Just add the cell work to the ministries that are already operating  without touching anything that is already ongoing.&lt;br /&gt;2 - Adapt. Once the cell model is set, start adapting your ministries around the cell model.&lt;br /&gt;3 - Suppress. Once adapted all the programs that you can to the cell model, others that you wont be able to adapt will remain. But when that happens, the life of the cells will have taken such force that the programs will no longer be so attractive. Then suppress them. No one will notice.&lt;br /&gt;If those three steps are implemented wisely, they will be an excellent guide to achieve a smooth transition, so it can end with an integration adjusted to the conditions of the local congregation.&lt;br /&gt;Comments? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;전환과 통합을 위한 삼단계&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;브라질에서 셀모델에 관한 탁월한 프로그램을 운여하고 있는 로버르토 레이 목사님이 전환과 통합 이슈에 대해 요약했는데, 지금까지 보건대, 내 생각에는 가장 선명하고, 실제적이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;로베르토 레이에게 있어서 전통주의적 교회를 셀교회로 전환하는 동안 삼단계가 사역들의 통합을 이끌어 가야 할 것이라는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1 - 추가하라. 이미 행하고 있는 어떠한 것에도 손대지 말고, 이미 작동하고 있는 사역들에다가 셀 사역을 그냥 추가하라.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;2 - 적합하게 하라. 일단 셀 모델이 구축되면, 셀 모델을 중심으로 사역들을 적합하게 만들기 시작하라.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;3 - 진압하라. 일단 당신이 할 수 있는 모든 프로그램들을 셀 모델에 적합하게하였다면, 어떤 것들은 단순히 적합하지 않다는 것을 보게 될 것이다. 그럴 때, 셀의 생명은 교회생활의 중요한 일부로 자리잡을 것이며, 프로그램들은 더 이상 매력을 발산하지 못할 것이다. 이럴 때, 남아있는 프로그램들을 진압하라. 아무도 관심을 갖지 않을 것이다. 이러한 삼단계들을 지혜롭게 실행한다면, 그것들은 순조로운 전환을 이루도록 탁월한 안내자가 될 것이다. 그렇게 해서지교회의 상황에 맞는 통합을 결국 이루게 될 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7609147136645201618?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7609147136645201618/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7609147136645201618' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7609147136645201618'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7609147136645201618'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/08/tres-pasos-para-la-transicion-y-la.html' title='TRES PASOS PARA LA TRANSICIÓN Y LA INTEGRACIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-9032636833892125125</id><published>2010-08-12T08:38:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-12T08:40:16.271-07:00</updated><title type='text'>INTEGRACIÓN: VIENDO ATRÁS 25 AÑOS DESPUÉS.</title><content type='html'>Cuando se habla del tema de la integración normalmente se hace desde la perspectiva de una iglesia que se encuentra haciendo su transición para convertirse en una iglesia celular. &lt;br /&gt;El próximo año cumpliremos en Elim 25 años de haber hecho nuestra transición. Para nuestros miembros la perspectiva es ahora muy diferente. La mayor parte de personas que hoy asisten a Elim tuvieron su primer acercamiento al evangelio en una célula. Fueron invitados y asistieron. Luego vino la conversión y comenzaron a ir a las celebraciones. La célula fue antes que la celebración.&lt;br /&gt;Las personas se relacionan primero con el ambiente de la célula, con el líder, con el anfitrión, con el supervisor. Después, en la celebración, se van enterando que existen otras funciones. Como la de músico, diácono y diaconisa, iglesia infantil, ayuno de mujeres, actividades de jóvenes, etc.&lt;br /&gt;Su involucramiento comienza en la célula y, eso, les conduce a otros privilegios en la celebración. Es decir que ellos llegan a una integración de manera natural. En realidad, ellos ni siquiera manejan el concepto de integración. Para ellos la iglesia integrada es la iglesia. La única que han conocido&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Integration: looping back 25 años después.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When talking about integration, it is usually done from the perspective of a church that is making its transition to become a cell church. This is not the case at Elim. Next year we will celebrate 25 years since making the transition to cell church ministry. For our members, the perspective is now very different. Most people that now attend Elim had their first exposure to the gospel in a cell. They accepted the invitation to attend a cell, were converted, and then eventually started attending the celebration services.&lt;br /&gt;Most people at Elim first relate to the cell environment, to the leader, to the host, to the supervisor and then eventually learn about the other functions of the church via the celebration services (i.e., musicians, deacon and deaconess, children’s church, women’s fasting services, youth activities, etc.)&lt;br /&gt;Their involvement begins in the cell and that leads them to other privileges in the celebration service. This means that they come to integration in a natural way. In fact, they don’t even need to think about the concept of integration. For them the integrated church is the church. This is all they ever knew.&lt;br /&gt;Comments?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;통합: 내년이면 25주년을 돌아보며&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;통합에 대해서 나눌 때, 셀교회로 전환을 이루고 있는 교회의 입장에서 보통 다루어진다. 엘림교회는 이 케이스에 속하지 않는다. 내년이면, 엘림교회가 셀교회로 전환한지 25주년이 되는 해이다. 우리 교인들에게 있어서는, 그 입장이 지금은 매우 다르다. 엘림교회에 지금 출석하고 있는 대다수의 사람들은 먼저 셀에서 복음을 들었다. 그들은 셀에 참여해달라는 초대를 수락하고, 셀에서 회심을 하였다. 그리고는 결국 축제예배에 참석하기 시작하였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회의 대다수 교인들은 먼저 셀 환경에, 리더에게, 모임 주관자에게, 감독과 관계를 맺게 된다. 그리고는 축제예배를 교회의 다른 기능들에 대해서 배우게 된다(예, 찬양자들, 집사, 어린이 교회, 여성 금식 모임, 청년 활동, 등).&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그들의 참여는 셀에서 시작한다. 그리고 축제예배에서 그들을 다른 특혜 쪽으로 인도한다. 이것은그들이 자연스러운 방식으로 통합되어진다는 의미이다. 실제로, 그들은 통합의 개념에 대해서 생각할 필요조차 없다. 그들에게 있어서, 교회는 통합된 교회이다. 이것이 그들이 아는 전부이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-9032636833892125125?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/9032636833892125125/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=9032636833892125125' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/9032636833892125125'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/9032636833892125125'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/08/integracion-viendo-atras-25-anos.html' title='INTEGRACIÓN: VIENDO ATRÁS 25 AÑOS DESPUÉS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6389186128257776103</id><published>2010-08-05T18:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-05T18:14:00.054-07:00</updated><title type='text'>¿POR QUÉ ES IMPORTANTE QUE LA IGLESIA ESTÉ BASADA EN CÉLULAS?</title><content type='html'>La razón principal es porque el modelo de reuniones grandes y pequeñas es el que aparece en el Nuevo Testamento como característica básica de la iglesia. Este tema lo hemos desarrollado antes y, por ahora, no es necesario volver a él.&lt;br /&gt;Además, existen otras razones prácticas que muestran las ventajas de una iglesia basada en células. Desde la perspectiva de lo que es nuestra experiencia, si no fuéramos una iglesia basada en células ¿cómo sería la iglesia Elim?&lt;br /&gt;En primer lugar, Elim no fuera una mega iglesia. Sería una iglesia cuya membresía oscilaría solamente alrededor de las tres mil personas. Ese techo que se mantuvo por varios años solamente pudo ser roto cuando la iglesia hizo su transición al modelo celular.&lt;br /&gt;Segundo, Elim no tuviera tantas iglesias filiales en el extranjero. Casi todas nuestras filiales no nacieron como resultado de un plan misionero sino como producto de la migración de miles de cristianos capacitados como líderes de células. Si tales migrantes no hubiesen sido capacitados para la obra del ministerio, al llegar al extranjero solamente se habrían sumado a alguna nueva iglesia. Pero su experiencia como líderes les permitió convertirse en obreros de iglesias que ellos mismos plantaron.&lt;br /&gt;Tercero, Elim no hubiese podido cuidar adecuadamente de sus miembros. La iglesia era ya numerosa antes de ser celular (unas tres mil personas), pero se continuaba con el modelo de un solo pastor atendiendo a esa multitud. Y, lógicamente, se atendía mal. El modelo celular permitió que miles ejercieran su sacerdocio de creyentes para comenzar a animarse, orar y exhortarse los unos a los otros. De esa manera, se creo toda una estructura de cuidado celular que ha demostrado ser útil hasta el día de hoy.&lt;br /&gt;Cuarto, Elim no hubiese podido realizar sus grandes proyectos como la adquisición de seis emisoras de radio y un canal de televisión de cobertura nacional, un terreno de 22 acres donde se construirá su futuro auditorio para 13,000 asientos, etc. Esos grandes esfuerzos fueron posibles gracias a millares de cristianos organizados en torno a las células.&lt;br /&gt;Quinto, Elim no tendría la capacidad de evangelizar y penetrar significativamente en las principales ciudades del país y del extranjero. El modelo celular ha hecho posible que un 9% del total de la población de la capital San Salvador sea parte de la iglesia. Es muy difícil encontrar en el país a alguien que no ha escuchado, al menos, de iglesia Elim.&lt;br /&gt;Sexto, si Elim no fuese una iglesia celular no tendría un promedio de 9,000 conversiones trimestrales, unos 300 bautismos por mes, unos 400 nuevos líderes por año.&lt;br /&gt;Posiblemente existirían otras diferencias, pero es difícil imaginar las diferencias entre lo que es y lo que nunca fue. Pero, sirvan los elementos mencionados para ilustrar la bendición que significa una iglesia basada en células.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Benefits of the cell-based church.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main reason to make cells the base of the church is because the model of large and small meetings is the one that appears in the New Testament as a basic characteristic of the church. We have developed this subject before, and for now it is not necessary to go through it again.&lt;br /&gt;In addition, there are other practical reasons that show the advantages of a cell-based church. From our own perspective, if we weren’t a church based on cells, the Elim church WOULD NOT  be:&lt;br /&gt;1. Elim wouldn’t be a mega church. It would be a church whose membership might reach 3,000 people or so. In fact, we hit the ceiling of 3,000 for several years, and we couldn’t break it until we became a cell church.&lt;br /&gt;2. Elim would not have so many branch churches overseas. Almost all of our branch churches were not born as a result of a missionary plan but as a product of the migration of thousands of Christians trained as cell leaders. If these migrants had not been trained for the work of the ministry, once abroad they would have joined a church as a member.  But their experience as leaders allowed them to become laborers of the churches that they themselves planted.&lt;br /&gt;3. Elim would not  have been able to properly care for its members. The church was already large before becoming a cell church (about three thousand people), but it continued with the model of only one pastor looking after that crowd. And, of course, they were not really cared for. The cell model allowed thousands to exercise the “priesthood of all believers” and enabled them to encourage, pray and exhort one another. In this way, a whole cell care structure was created which has continued to this day.&lt;br /&gt;4. Elim would not had been able to accomplish its big projects, like the purchase of six radio stations and a television channel with national coverage, a piece of land of 22 acres where its future 13.000 seat auditorium will be built, etc. Those great endeavors were made possible thanks to thousands of Christians organized around cells.&lt;br /&gt;5. Elim would not  have the ability to evangelize and significantly penetrate the major cities of the country and abroad. The cell model has allowed 9% of the total population of the capital of San Salvador to be part of the church. It is very difficult to find anyone  in the country who has not heard of the Elim church.&lt;br /&gt;6. if Elim was not a cell church it would not have a quarterly average of 9,000 conversions, about 300 baptisms per month,  and about 400 new leaders per year.&lt;br /&gt;There would probably be other differences, but it is hard to imagine the difference between what Elim is today as a cell-based church and what Elim might have looked like as a traditional, program based church.&lt;br /&gt;My prayer is that what is listed here might bless you to envision the benefits of the cell based church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;교회의 유익&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀을 교회의 기초로 삼는 주된 이유는 대그룹과 소그룹 모임의 모델은 교회의 기본적 특성으로서 신약성경에 나타난 모델이기 때문이다. 우리는 이 주제에 대해서 예전에 이야기했었다. 그리고 지금, 이 주제를 다시 꺼내려는 것은 아니다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;게다가, 셀교회의 유익들을 보여주는 다른 실제적인 이유들이 있다. 우리 입장에서 보면, 교회가 셀에 기초하지 않았다면, 엘림교회는 없었을 것이다:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;1. 엘림교회는 메가교회가 될 수 없었을 것이다. 교인이 3,000명에 이르는 교회가 되었을지는 모르겠다. 사실, 우리는 여러 해 동안 3,000명의 한계에 있었다. 셀교회가 되기 전까이 이 숫자를 돌파할 수 없었다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;2. 엘림교회는 전세계에 많은 지교회들을 세울 수 없었을 것이다. 우리가 세운 대부분의 지교회들이 선교 전략의 일환으로 세워진 것이 아니라, 셀 리더로 훈련 받았던 수 천 명의 신자들이 이주를 감으로서 세워진 것이다. 이러한 이민자들이 사역을 위해 훈련 받지 못했다면, 그들은 해외에서 일개 교인으로만 머물렀을 것이다. 하지만 리더로서 그들의 경험은 그들 스스로가 교회를 개척하는 수고자가 되게 하였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;3. 엘림교회는 교인들을 적절하게 돌볼 수 없었을 것이다. 교회는 셀교회를 하기 전부터 이미 대형교회였다(약 3,000명). 하지만 한 명의 목회자가 군중을 바라보는 모델은 여전하였다. 물론, 그들은 정말로 돌봄을 받고 있었다. 하지만 셀 모델은 수 천명의 사람들이 "만인 제사장직"을 실천하고, 서로 격려하고, 서로 기도하고, 서로 훈계할 수 있게 하였다. 이런 식으로, 셀 돌봄 구조가 지금도 이어져 오고 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;4. 엘림교회는 6개의 라디오 방송국과 전국 단위의 텔레비전 채널을 구매하고, 13,000명이 앉을 수 있는 건물이 있는 22에이커의 토지를 구매하는 등의 대형 프로젝트를 성취할 수 없었을 것이다. 이러한 위대한 수고들은 셀을 중심으로 조직된 수천 명의 신자들이 아니었으면 불가능했기에, 그들에게 감사 드린다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;5. 엘림교회는 국내의 대도시들과 해외에서 활발히 전도하고 침투하는 능력을 가지지 못했을 것이다. 셀 모델은 산살바도르의 전체 인구 중 9%가 엘림 교인이 되도록 하였다. 나라 안에서 엘림교회를 들어보지 못한 사람을 찾는 일이란 매우 어렵다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;6. 엘림교회가 셀교회가 아니었다면, 분기별로 9,000명의 회심자를, 매달 약 300명의 세례자를, 그리고 해마다 400명의 새로운 리더들을 양산하지 못했을 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;오늘날 엘림이 셀교회라는 점과 엘림교회가 전통적이고, 프로그램 중심 교회로 갔다면, 이 둘 사이에 차이는 상상하기 힘들다.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;여기 적힌 목록이 당신에게도 축복이 되어 셀교회의 유익을 당신도 맛볼 수있기를 기도합니다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6389186128257776103?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6389186128257776103/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6389186128257776103' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6389186128257776103'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6389186128257776103'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/08/por-que-es-importante-que-la-iglesia.html' title='¿POR QUÉ ES IMPORTANTE QUE LA IGLESIA ESTÉ BASADA EN CÉLULAS?'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2146360093868561031</id><published>2010-07-29T08:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-29T08:06:31.259-07:00</updated><title type='text'>VARIACIONES EN LAS LECCIONES PARA LAS CÉLULAS.</title><content type='html'>El utilizar el mensaje dominical del pastor como base para el estudio en las células me parece que es un recurso excelente. En lo personal, es algo que me hubiese gustado hacer dentro de nuestra iglesia. Pero, tal cosa, no es posible.&lt;br /&gt;En primer lugar, porque en nuestra iglesia tenemos seis servicios dominicales y en cada uno de ellos se predica un mensaje diferente. Sería sumamente difícil sintetizar una sola enseñanza de seis sermones diferentes.&lt;br /&gt;En segundo lugar, porque desde el momento en que surgió nuestra Guía del Líder, se hizo pensando en que ésta sirviera no solamente para una iglesia en particular sino para todas la filiales de nuestra Misión.&lt;br /&gt;Por estas razones, se publica cada trimestre un pequeño volumen que contiene trece estudios para los siguientes tres meses. Esos estudios siguen la secuencia de un libro del Nuevo Testamento. Por ejemplo, puede ser que se estudie el evangelio de Juan, sección a sección, de principio a fin. La misma enseñanza que se imparte en una célula de San Salvador, se está impartiendo en la misma fecha en nuestras células en Bruselas, Madrid, Lima o San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;Por su parte, el Pastor Cho ha escrito varios volúmenes de lecciones para células que siguen un orden temático. Estos volúmenes representan varios años de enseñanzas continuadas que al finalizar regresan al líder al punto de inicio. Así, un líder puede comprar todos los volúmenes y saber que con ello tendrá el material adecuado hasta que Cristo vuelva.&lt;br /&gt;Tanto en el caso de Elim como en el caso de Corea, las guías son escritas por el Pastor titular. Desde ese punto de vista, se mantiene el principio de la unidad de enseñanzas y uniformidad de contenidos. Esta es una variación de la Guía para el líder que no desvirtúa aquella que gira en torno al sermón dominical.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Variations in the cells’ lessons.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using the pastor's Sunday message as grounds for the study in cells seems to me as an excellent resource. Personally, that is something I would have wanted to do in our church. But such a thing is not possible.&lt;br /&gt;First of all, because we have six services in our church on Sunday and in each one of them a different message is preached. It would be extremely difficult to synthesize a single teaching of six different sermons.&lt;br /&gt;Second of all, because from the moment our Leader’s Guide appeared, it was done thinking that it would serve not only for a particular church but for all the Branch Churches of our Mission.&lt;br /&gt;For these reasons, a small volume containing thirteen studies for the next three months is published every quarter. Those studies follow the sequence of a New Testament’s book. For example, the Gospel of John could be studied, section by section, from beginning to end. The same teaching that is being imparted in a cell in San Salvador, is being imparted on the same date in our cells in Brussels, Madrid, Lima or San Francisco.&lt;br /&gt;For his part, Pastor Cho has written several volumes of lessons for cells that follow a thematic order. These volumes represent several years of continuing teachings that at the end make the leader return to the initial point. So a leader can buy all the volumes and know that with this he will have the right material until Christ returns.&lt;br /&gt;Both in the case of Elim as in the case of Korea, the Guides are written by the Senior Pastor. From that point of view, the principle of unity of teachings and of uniformity of contents is maintained. This is a variation of the leader’s Guide which does not detract the one that revolves around the Sunday sermon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 교재의 변이성&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;목사님의 주일 메시지를 사용해서 셀 말씀 시간의 토대로 삼는 것은 셀 교재로 탁월한 선택처럼 보인다. 개인적으로, 나도 우리교회에서 그렇게 하고 싶었다. 하지만 그리 단순치가 않았다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;무엇보다도, 우리는 주일에 6부 예배를 드린다. 그리고 각각의 예배마다 설교 메시지가 다르다. 6가지의 다양한 설교를 하나의 가르침에 담아내는 것은 굉장히 어렵다 하겠다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;두번째로, 리더 가이드를 디자인하면서, 모교회뿐만 아니라 엘림 선교회의 모든 지교회들까지 고려해야 한다는 것을 알게 되었다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 이유로 해서, 우리는 분기별로 13가지의 내용을 담은 셀 공과(lesson)을 만들어 출판한다. 공부 내용은 신약성경의 목차를 따른다. 예를 들면, 요한복음을 공부한다면, 처음부터 끝까지 차례로 나아간다. 그렇게 해서 동일한 가르침이 산살바도르 내의 셀에 전달되어진다. 또한 브뤼셀, 마드리드, 리마, 샌프란시스코, 등등에 있는 셀에서 같은 날 전달되어진다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;조용기 목사님은 주제별로 셀 교재를 여러 권 쓰셨다. 이러한 책들은 여러 해 동안 지속적으로 가르치기에 용이하다. 예를 들면, 그 교회의 리더는 교재 전부를 사서, 그리스도가 재림하실 때까지 가지고 사용할 수 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회에서나, 한국에서나, 셀 지침서들은 담임 목사님에 의해서 쓰여진다. 이러한 관점에서 볼 때, 가르침의 통일성과 내용의 일관성이라는 원리가 유지되고 있다. 그러므로 리더 가이드는 주일 설교를 중심으로 해서 변화를 준다 하겠다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2146360093868561031?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2146360093868561031/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2146360093868561031' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2146360093868561031'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2146360093868561031'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/07/variaciones-en-las-lecciones-para-las.html' title='VARIACIONES EN LAS LECCIONES PARA LAS CÉLULAS.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7022560325261200953</id><published>2010-07-22T07:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-22T07:32:55.085-07:00</updated><title type='text'>DEJA QUE EL ESPÍRITU SANTO GUÍE LA HOMOGENEIDAD</title><content type='html'>Sin dudas que cuando la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento se reunía en las casas no tenía mayores preocupaciones sobre si sus reuniones eran o no homogéneas. Para ellos, las reuniones de culto cristiano eran para lo que llamaban su “oikos”, la familia ampliada que incluía a los esclavos.&lt;br /&gt;Es obvio que las características de sus reuniones correspondían a las condiciones sociales y económicas de su época. Ellas se acomodaron a lo que resultaba más natural en su momento. De igual manera, no debemos tratar de forzar nada sino permitir que las cosas sucedan con toda naturalidad.&lt;br /&gt;En nuestro caso, comenzamos trabajando con células mixtas y células sólo para mujeres. Los líderes de las células mixtas siempre eran hombres en tanto que en las células para mujeres el líder siempre era una mujer. No obstante, se trataba de una división artificial. Con el tiempo nos dimos cuenta que muchos hombres preferían asistir a una célula dirigida por una mujer. Ahora, las células dirigidas por mujeres son también mixtas.&lt;br /&gt;Pero, en cuanto al trabajo con los niños se ha caminado en la dirección inversa. Comenzamos enfatizando las células intergeneracionales. Sin embargo, era difícil conservar un ambiente adecuado. En la actualidad, estamos desarrollando las células infantiles en un lugar y horario diferente al de las de adultos. El resultado ha sido exitoso. No descalifico con ello a las células intergeneracionales. Solamente estoy compartiendo nuestra experiencia.&lt;br /&gt;En cada caso el Espíritu Santo ha de guiar a las iglesias a lo que les resulte mejor. Y cuando eso suceda, las cosas ocurrirán de manera natural. Sin forzarlas. Correrán libres como el agua que encuentra su propio camino.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Let the Holy Spirit guide cell homogeneity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that when the New Testament church met in houses, it had no major concerns about whether or not the meetings were homogeneous. For them, the meetings of Christian worship were for what they called their “oikos,” the extended family that included slaves.&lt;br /&gt;It is obvious that the characteristics of their meetings corresponded to the social and economic conditions of their time. They settled on what was more natural at the time. Similarly, we should not try to force one type of homogeneity; rather we should let things happen naturally.&lt;br /&gt;In our case, we began working with mixed cell and cells for women only. The leaders of the mixed cells were always men and the leader of a women’s cell was alwasy a woman. However, it was an artificial division. Over time we realized that many men preferred to go to a cell led by a woman. Now, the cells headed by women are also mixed cells.&lt;br /&gt;Regarding the work with children, we have gone in the opposite direction. We began emphasizing intergenerational cells. However, it was difficult to maintain a suitable environment. Currently, we are developing children’s cells on a different time and at a different place than the adult cells. The result has been very successful. Please understand that I don’t disqualify intergenerational cells. I’m just sharing our experience.&lt;br /&gt;In each case the Holy Spirit will guide the churches to what is best. And when that happens, things will occur naturally, without forcing them. They’ll run free like water finding its own way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;성령님께서 동질 셀을 안내하게 하자&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;신약교회가 집에서 모였을 때, 모임이 동질이 되어야 하는지, 아닌지에 대해서는 중요한 문제가 아니었음이 분명하다. 그들에게 있어서, 기독교 예배의 모임 장소는 "오이코스"라고 불리는 곳, 노예들이 포함된 확대 가족을 위한 것이었다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그들 모임 장소의 특징들은 그 당시의 사회적 경제적 상황과 결부되어 있었다. 그들은 보다 자연스럽게 모일 수 있는 곳에서 모였다. 우리도 동질이라는 한 형태만을 강요해서는 안 될 것이다; 차라리 우리는 모임이 자연스럽게 일어나게끔 놔두어야 할 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;우리 경우에는, 혼합 셀과 여성만을 위한 셀들로 사역을 시작하였다. 혼합 셀들의 리더는 항상 남자였으며, 여성 셀의 리더는 항상 여성이었다. 하지만, 이것은 인위적인 나눔이었다. 시간이 가면서, 많은 남성들이 여성에 의해서 인도되어지는 셀에 가는 것을 선호한다는 것을 깨닫게 되었다. 지금은, 여성도 혼합 셀을 인도한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;어린이와 함께 사역하면서, 우리는 반대 방향으로 가게 되었다. 우리는 세대통합 셀들을 강조하기 시작했다. 하지만 그에 어울리는 환경을 유지하기란 참으로 힘들었다. 현재는, 어른 셀보다 다양한 장소에서 그리고 다양한 시간대에 모임을 가지는 어린이 셀들을 개발하고 있다. 그 결과는 매우 성공적이다. 세대통합셀을 무시하려는 것이 아님을 알아 주십시오. 나는 단지 우리의 경험을 나누고자 할 뿐입니다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;각각의 케이스에 대해서, 성령님께서 무엇이 최선인지에대해서 교회들을 안내하실 것이다. 그리 될 때, 강요하지 않더라도, 일들이 자연스럽게 일어날 것이다. 물 흐르듯이 흘러갈 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7022560325261200953?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7022560325261200953/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7022560325261200953' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7022560325261200953'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7022560325261200953'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/07/deja-que-el-espiritu-santo-guie-la.html' title='DEJA QUE EL ESPÍRITU SANTO GUÍE LA HOMOGENEIDAD'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4951109429402228730</id><published>2010-07-15T08:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-15T08:43:18.189-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CADA DÍA Y POR LAS CASAS</title><content type='html'>¿Por qué la iglesia debe reunirse fuera del edificio de culto y de manera periódica? Muy sencillo, porque esas eran las dos características de las iglesias que surgieron después de la resurrección de Jesús. Ellos no tenían ningún edificio para culto, consecuentemente, su única opción era la de reunirse en otro lugar que no fuera un edificio.&lt;br /&gt;El cristiano occidental está al presente tan aferrado a su edificio de culto que no concibe el ejercicio de su fe fuera del recinto designado para ello. Pero, la fe es algo que debe abarcar la vida total de la persona. Por eso, los primeros cristianos se reunían en las casas. Que en el siglo I era el centro no sólo de la familia sino también de la producción económica y de las relaciones sociales. &lt;br /&gt;El otro aspecto es que los primeros cristianos se reunían todos los días. La fe no era para ellos un asunto de fin de semana. O de dos veces por semana. Cada día se reunían para compartir su fe en torno a la mesa. El evangelio no era para ellos una actividad marginal en un rincón del fin de semana. La fe era para ellos la vida toda. La vida diaria.&lt;br /&gt;El no concentrar el ejercicio de la fe en un edificio permitió a la iglesia primitiva expandirse por el mundo mediterráneo. Un fenómeno similar al que hoy sucede con la iglesia en China. &lt;br /&gt;El no limitar a uno o dos días la labor del ministerio les permitió a los primeros cristianos vivir en plenitud y profundidad su vida cristiana. No digo con esto que no se pueda llevar una vida cristiana auténtica si no se va más allá del fin de semana, pero, el modelo de la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento es el de cada día y por las casas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Daily and in every house.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why should the church meet outside the worship building and periodically? It’s very simply, because those were the two characteristics of the churches that emerged after the resurrection of Jesus. They had no building for worship; consequently, their only option was to meet in another place that was not a building.&lt;br /&gt;The Western Christian is at present so attached to his place of worship that he can not conceive the practice of his faith outside the place designated for it. But faith is something that should take in the total life of the individual. That is why the early Christians met in houses; which in the first century was the center not only of the family but also of the economic production and of social relations.&lt;br /&gt;The other aspect is that the early Christians met every day. Faith for them was not a matter of weekends; or twice a week. They met each day to share their faith around the table. The gospel for them was not a marginal activity in a corner of the weekend. Faith was to them the entire life, daily life.&lt;br /&gt;Not concentrating the practice of faith in a building allowed the early church to expand through out the Mediterranean world; a similar phenomenon like the one happening today with the church in China.&lt;br /&gt;Not limiting to one or two days the work of the Ministry enabled the early Christians to live fully and deeply their Christian life. With this I am not saying that it is not possible to live a true Christian life beyond the weekend, but the New Testament’s church model is the one carried out daily and in every house.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;매일, 집에서 집으로&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;왜 교회 모임이 건물 밖에서 자주 모어야 하는 것일까? 그 이유는 예수님의 부활 후 생겨난 초대교회의 패턴이다. 초대교회 신자들은 자신들의 자체 건물을 가지고 못했다. 그들은 열린 공간 혹은 유대 성전에서 예배하고, 집에서 집으로 모였다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;서양 기독교는 지나치게 예배의 장소에 집착하게 되었다. 건물 안에서 행하는 것과 믿음을 지나치게 연결 지어갔다. 하지만, 신앙은 개인의 삶 전체에서 되어져야 할 것이다. 초대교회는 기독교 신앙대로 살아가기 위해서 자신들의 집을 어떻게 사용했는지에 대한 아름다움을 보여준다. 1세기의 집은 가족의 중심일뿐만 아니라, 사회적 관계들과 경제적 생산의 중심이었다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;초대교회 신자들은 또한 매일 만났다. 그들에게 있어서 신앙은 주일만의 문제가 아니었다; 혹은 일주일에 두번. 그들은 테이블에 둘러모여 자신들의 신앙을 나누기 위해서 매일 만났다. 그들에게 있어서 복음은 한 주의 끝자리에만 하는 번외 활동이 아니었다. 신앙은 매일 행하는 것이었다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;건물을 가짐으로서, 초대교회는 지중해 전역에까지 그들의 신앙을 확장시킬 수 있었다. 마치 오늘날 중국에서 일어나는 일처럼. 사역이 일주일에 하루 혹은 이틀로 한정하지 않음으로서, 초대교회 신자들은 그들의 신앙대로 깊이있게 살아갈 수 있게 하였다.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;집에서 집으로 모임으로서 신약교회가 매일 살아있는 신앙대로 살아간 것처럼 그렇게 살도록 서로를 격려하자.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4951109429402228730?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4951109429402228730/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4951109429402228730' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4951109429402228730'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4951109429402228730'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/07/cada-dia-y-por-las-casas.html' title='CADA DÍA Y POR LAS CASAS'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1814005435254335384</id><published>2010-07-08T09:14:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-08T09:15:33.319-07:00</updated><title type='text'>CÉLULAS CON PROPÓSITO.</title><content type='html'>Al iniciar nuestro trabajo celular fue indudable que el objetivo principal era el de evangelizar a muchas más personas. Las células no nacieron como un fin en sí mismo sino como un medio para alcanzar el fin de la evangelización. Esa pasión se conserva hasta el presente y se manifiesta en el hecho que por cada cristiano que asiste a una célula hay un promedio de dos amigos invitados.&lt;br /&gt;Al producirse el crecimiento de la iglesia, la simple observación demostró que las células mismas eran el medio adecuado para que los miembros desarrollaran un sentido de pertenencia, de cuidado mutuo y de comunión. No tengo la menor duda que la base fundamental de la comunión en nuestra iglesia se produce en la célula y no en la celebración, donde nuestro sistema de servicios en serie no deja lugar al tiempo suficiente para la comunión de pasillos.&lt;br /&gt;El mismo desarrollo del modelo demandó cada vez más personas que ejercieran la labor del ministerio. Las células mostraron ser capaces de abrir los espacios para que muchas más personas pudiesen incorporarse al trabajo. Además proveyó los medios para la capacitación de esos nuevos ministros.&lt;br /&gt;De esa manera, sin tener el marco teórico, las células en su desarrollo habían definido sus componentes: multiplicación, comunión, evangelización, capacitación, cuidado de los unos por los otros. Sería hasta varios años después, al escuchar a Joel Comiskey, que entendería la teología que explicaba y daba unidad a lo que había venido sucediendo en nuestro país de manera natural. No fue una casualidad. Es que Dios siempre edifica su iglesia de acuerdo a su deseo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Cells with a purpose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the beginning of our cell work there was no doubt that the main purpose was to evangelize much more people. The cells were not born as an end in itself but as means to achieve the purpose of evangelization. That passion is preserved until the present and is manifested in the fact that for every Christian who attends a cell there is an average of two invited friends.&lt;br /&gt;Upon the church’s growth, the simple observation showed that the cells themselves were the appropriate environment for members to develop a sense of belonging, mutual care and fellowship. I have no doubt that the foundation of fellowship in our church occurs in the cell and not in the celebration service, where our serial services system leaves no room for sufficient time to have the halls fellowship.&lt;br /&gt;The model’s development increasingly demanded people to practice the work of the Ministry. The cells showed their ability to open new spaces for many more people to join in the work; it also provided the means for the training of those new Ministers.&lt;br /&gt;In that way, without having the theoretical framework, the cells in their development had defined their components: multiplication, fellowship, evangelism, training, and care for one another. It was not until several years later, while listening to Joel Comiskey, that I would understand the theology that explained and gave unity to what had been happening naturally in our country. It was no coincidence. It is God that always builds his church according to His desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;목적이 있는 셀&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;우리의 셀 사역을 시작할 때, 메인 목적은 복음을 전하고 더 많은 사람들에게 다가가는 것이었다. 셀들을 탄생시키는 것이 목적이 아니라, 전도의 목적을 성취하기 위한 수단으로서 셀을 탄생시키는 것이었다. 우리는 현재도 이 목적을 유지해 오고 있다. 이 목적은 셀에 참여한 모든 신자들이 평균 두 명의 친구들을 초청하고 있다는 점에 의해서 여기서 찾아 볼 수 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;교회가 성장해 가면서, 우리는 또한 목도하였는데, 셀들은 멤버들이 소속감, 상호 돌봄, 그리고 친교를 개발하기 좋은 장소였다. 우리 교회에서 친교의 토대는 셀에서 일어난다, 축제 예배가 아니라(예배 로테이션은 친교 시간을 별로 허락하지 않는다). 셀 모델은 또한 사역에 더 많은 사람들이 참여할 수 있도록 새로운 공간에 대해서 열려 있다. 그리고 이러한 새로운 사역자들이 훈련 받을 수 있는 방법들을 제공한다.&lt;br /&gt;심지어 셀 사역의 이론적 토대를 이해하기도 전에, 셀이 자라나는 와중에 그 구성요소를 파악하게 되었다: 번식, 친교, 전도, 훈련, 그리고 서로 돌봄. 몇 년 후에, 죠엘 코미스키에 경청하는 중에, 몇년 동안 우리 교회에서 자연스럽게 일어났었던 점들을 설명하는 신학을 이해할 수 있었다. 를 세우신 분은 하나님이시다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1814005435254335384?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1814005435254335384/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1814005435254335384' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1814005435254335384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1814005435254335384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/07/celulas-con-proposito.html' title='CÉLULAS CON PROPÓSITO.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-2936111824747545388</id><published>2010-07-01T19:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-01T19:10:37.954-07:00</updated><title type='text'>REUNIONES DE EQUIPO EN EL MODELO DE IGLESIA ELIM</title><content type='html'>En la estructura de una iglesia celular numerosa existen diversas reuniones de equipo que se realizan en cada uno de los niveles de la organización. Cada una de ellas es importante porque asegura que el trabajo se realice de manera cuidadosa en cada instancia para dar como resultado fruto abundante para la gloria del Señor.&lt;br /&gt;Cada semana se realiza un reunión del núcleo de la célula, en la cual, se evalúa la reunión de célula de la semana anterior, se planifica la siguiente y se ora por los invitados que cada uno llevará. Esta reunión se efectúa en una casa y es dirigida por el líder de célula.&lt;br /&gt;También cada semana, se produce la reunión de supervisión. Ésta se da en dos momentos. En un primer momento el pastor de zona se reúne con los líderes y supervisores bajo su responsabilidad. En esta reunión el pastor de zona revisa los resultados de la semana anterior en relación a la meta de crecimiento propuesta. Define estrategias y fortalece los puntos débiles. En el segundo momento, cada supervisor se reúne con los líderes que están bajo su responsabilidad para aplicar de manera particular a su sector lo que el pastor de zona expresó en el primer momento de la reunión. Esta reunión se realiza en un lugar adecuado y amplio, fuera del edificio de la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Los pastores de zona, a su vez, se reúnen cada semana con su pastor de distrito. El pastor de distrito hace una evaluación del trabajo en un área geográfica de la ciudad. Dependiendo de la ubicación, el pastor de distrito evalúa y planifica para una cantidad de entre 400 a 1000 células, con sus respectivos supervisores y pastores de zona. Esta reunión se realiza en las oficinas de la iglesia ya que todos los involucrados trabajan a tiempo completo para la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Finalmente, los pastores de distrito unifican sus resultados para tener una visión de lo que fue el trabajo de la iglesia la semana anterior. Existe una reunión en donde se reúne el pastor principal con los pastores de distrito. Esta reunión es más de carácter estratégico. Se fijan las metas a un año plazo y a cinco años plazo. Se pueden acordar ajustes al modelo de acuerdo a las necesidades que van presentándose. &lt;br /&gt;Esta multiplicidad de reuniones que se producen cada semana hacen posible que se produzca la comunión y la fraternidad en el trabajo. Los corazones se sintonizan en torno a una meta común y se abre la oportunidad para animarse los unos a los otros.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Team meetings in Elim church’s model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the structure of a large cell church there are several team meetings taking place in each of the organization levels. Each of them is important because it ensures that work is carried out carefully in every instance to result in abundant fruit for the glory of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;Each week a cell core meeting takes place, in which the previous week’s cell meeting is evaluated, the next one is planned and prayer is made for the guests each one is going to bring. This meeting takes place in a house and is conducted by the cell meeting’s leader.&lt;br /&gt;Also, each week, the supervision meeting takes place. This one occurs in two stages. At first the zone pastor meets with the leaders and supervisors that are under his responsibility. At this meeting the zone pastor reviews the results of the previous week in relation to the aimed growth target. Define strategies and strengthens the weak points. In the second stage, each supervisor meets with the leaders who are under his/her responsibility to apply to their sector on a particular way, what the zone pastor said in the first stage of the meeting. This meeting occurs in an adequate and large place outside the church building.&lt;br /&gt;The zone pastors also meet every week with their district pastor. The district pastor  does an evaluation of the work on a geographical area of the city. Depending on the location, the district pastor evaluates and plans for an amount of between 400 and 1000 cells, with their respective supervisors and zone pastors. This meeting is held at the church’s offices since everyone involved is working full time for the church.&lt;br /&gt;Finally, the district pastors unify their results to get a sight of what was the church’s last week’s work. There is a meeting where the senior pastor meets with the district pastors. This meeting is more like strategic. Targets are set within a one year and five-years term. Adjustments to the model may be resolved according to the needs that arise.&lt;br /&gt;This multiplicity of meetings that occur every week make possible to occur the communion and fellowship within the workplace. The hearts are tuned towards a common goal and the opportunity to encourage one another opens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;엘림교회의 팀 미팅&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;대형 셀교회 구조에서, 각각의 조직 레벨에서 여러 개의 팀 미팅이 존재하게 된다. 주님의 영광을 위해 풍성한 열매를 가져다 주는 일을 수행하기 때문에, 그 미팅들 모두가 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;매주 셀 코어 모임이 있는데, 이전 주의 셀 모임을 평가하고, 다음 주 모임을 계획하고, 각각의 멤버들이 데려올 손님들을 위해서 기도한다. 이 모임은 가정에서 셀 리더에 의해서 진행된다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;또한, 매주 감독(슈퍼바이저) 모임이 있다. 두 단계가 있다. 첫번째는, 지역장이 그의 책임 하에 있는 리더들과 감독들을 만난다. 이 모임에서, 지역장은 겨냥하고 있는 성장 목표와 관련해서 지난 주의 결과들을 음미한다. 목표는 전략들을 정비하고, 약점들을 강화하는 것이다. 2단계에서는, 각각의 감독들이 그/그녀의 책임 하에 있는 리더들을 만나 지역장이 모임 1단계에서 언급한 것을 그들 영역에서 적용하기 위해 만나는 것이다. 이 모임은 교회 건물 밖에서 충분한 크기의 공간이 있는 곳에서 이루어진다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;지역장은 또한 교구 목사님을 매주 만난다. 교구목사님은 도시의 지정학적 위치에 따라 사역을 평가한다. 위치에 따라서, 교구목사님은 400개에서 1,000개의 셀을 평가하고 목양한다. 그들의 감독들과 지역장들과 함께. 이 모임은 모든 사람들이 교회를 위해 풀타임으로 사역하고 있기에 교회 사무실에서 열린다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;마지막으로, 교구목사님은 지난 주에 그들의 교구에 있는 각각의 셀들 안에서 벌어진 일들을 보고 받는다. 그리고는 담임목사님이 교구 목사님들과 만나 그 결과들과 전략적인 계획들을 수립한다. 타킷은 일년계획과 5개년 개획을 세우는 것이다. 모델을 조정하는 것은 제기되어지는 필요들에 따라 행해질 수 있다. 매주 모임들이 번식되어짐으로서, 일터에서 공동체가 세워지고, 힘을 얻으며, 모든 사람들이 공동의 목표를향해달려가도록 돕는다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-2936111824747545388?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/2936111824747545388/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=2936111824747545388' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2936111824747545388'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/2936111824747545388'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/07/reuniones-de-equipo-en-el-modelo-de.html' title='REUNIONES DE EQUIPO EN EL MODELO DE IGLESIA ELIM'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1756648906454439159</id><published>2010-06-24T19:20:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-24T19:22:34.122-07:00</updated><title type='text'>VALORES DEL EQUIPO PASTORAL.</title><content type='html'>Una condición muy importante para formar un equipo pastoral adecuado es que cada uno de sus miembros compartan la misma visión. No es posible que un equipo se integre adecuadamente si cada uno de sus miembros tiene una visión diferente de hacia dónde se dirigen y los métodos que se utilizarán para llegar allí. La visión debe ser establecida por el Pastor principal de la iglesia y responde a lo que Dios le ha mostrado para su comunidad, ciudad o país.&lt;br /&gt;Esto supone que cada uno de los miembros del equipo pastoral reconozca que ellos han sido invitados a sumarse como colaboradores del Pastor principal. Si alguno de los miembros aspira a desempeñarse como un Pastor principal y no como un colaborador, lo cual es totalmente legítimo, debe mejor dejar su lugar a otra persona para dedicarse a su verdadero llamado.&lt;br /&gt;En el Reino de Dios siempre habrá números ‘uno’ y números ‘dos’. Los unos necesitan de los otros. Ningún número ‘uno’ será efectivo tratando de ser un número ‘dos’. Y ningún número ‘dos’ será efectivo tratando de ser un número ‘uno’. Cada quien debe estar muy conciente de su llamado y permanecer fiel a la posición que Dios le ha entregado. El anhelo de todo hijo de Dios no debe ser el protagonismo pues en el Reino de Dios el mayor es el menor.&lt;br /&gt;El compartir y vivir estos valores se convierte en elemento fundamental para integrar un equipo pastoral que pueda dar atención a los miembros de la iglesia celular local.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Pastoral team values.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A very important condition to form a proper pastoral team is that each of its members share the same vision. It is not possible for a team to be properly integrated if each one of its members has a different vision of where they’re heading and the methods they’ll use to get there. The vision must be established by the Senior Pastor of the church and it responds to what God has shown him for his community, city or country.&lt;br /&gt;This indicates that each one of the pastoral team members recognize that they have been invited to join in as the Senior Pastor’s collaborators. If any member wants to serve as a Senior Pastor and not as a collaborator, which is completely legitimate, the best for him would be to leave his position to someone else in order to dedicate to his true calling.&lt;br /&gt;In the Kingdom of God there will always be number “ones” and number “twos”. Both need each other. No number “one” will be effective trying to be a number “two”. And no number “two” will be effective trying to be a number “one”. Each one must be very aware of his call and must remain faithful to the position God has given him. The desire of every child of God should not be the protagonism for in the kingdom of God the greater is the smallest one.&lt;br /&gt;To share and live these values becomes a key element to integrate a pastoral team that can attend the local cell church members.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;목회 팀 가치들&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;목회 팀에 속한 각각의 멤버들은 같은 비전을 공유하는 것이 중요하다. 팀 멤버가 각자가 비전을 향해 가는 방향을 달리하고, 거기에 이르는 방법들도 달리하면서 팀으로 잘 통합되어 있기란 불가능하다. 담임 목사님은 비전을 세우고, 교회는 담임 목사님이 보여준 것에 응답한다, 공동체와 도시와 나라를 위해서.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;목회 팀의 각각의 멤버들은 담임 목사님의 비전에 합류하여, 이를 성취하도록 돕기 위해 초대를 받았음을 인지한다. 팀 멤버가 부교자가 아닌, 담임 목사님으로서 섬기고자 한다면, 이것은 완전히 적법한 것이다, 그는 그의 자리를 떠나 그 자신의 교회를 목양하는 일에 헌신하는 것이 최상이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;하나님 나라에서, 숫자 "하나들(ones)"과 "둘들(twos)"이 항상 있을 것이다. 둘 다 서로가 필요하다. 숫자 "하나(one)"는 숫자 "둘"이 되려고 노력하는 것은 효과적이지 못할 것이다. 숫자 "둘"은 "하나"가 되려는 시도하는 것은 효과적이지 않을 것이다. 각자가 자신의 소명을 깨달아야 한다. 그리고 하나님께서 주신 위치에서 열매맺으면서 있어야 한다. 하나님의 모든 자녀들의 바람은 주전 선수가 되는 것이 아니라, 차라리 모든 자의 종이 되어야 할 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 가치들을 공유하고 살아가는 것이, 목회 팀이 그리스도의 몸 안에서 효과적이 되려면, 필수적이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1756648906454439159?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1756648906454439159/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1756648906454439159' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1756648906454439159'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1756648906454439159'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/06/valores-del-equipo-pastoral.html' title='VALORES DEL EQUIPO PASTORAL.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7143032526471906974</id><published>2010-06-15T20:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-15T20:55:18.485-07:00</updated><title type='text'>PASTORES APASIONADOS POR EL TRABAJO CELULAR.</title><content type='html'>En una estructura celular completa los líderes son animados por los supervisores y los supervisores por el Pastor de la iglesia. Pero ¿quién anima a los Pastores de las iglesias? Obviamente, el estímulo debe venir de elementos externos a la congregación local.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una excelente manera de obtener inspiración es visitando otra iglesia que trabaja muy bien en la visión celular. En lo personal, siempre encuentro nueva inspiración y nuevas ideas al visitar la Iglesia del Evangelio Completo en Yoido, Corea del Sur. El contemplar ese milagro viviente que es la iglesia del Pastor Cho es siempre una razón para encontrar renovación interna. Tal visita cobra especial relevancia si se realiza durante el desarrollo de la Conferencia Internacial de Crecimiento de la Iglesia que se realiza en el mes de octubre de los años impares. La próxima será en octubre de 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En esa visita no debe olvidarse el dedicar una mañana, aunque lo mejor sería un día completo, para ir a la Montaña de la Oración. Solamente cuando se visita este lugar se puede tener una idea integral del modelo del Pastor Cho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aunque la Iglesia de Yoido es el modelo por excelencia del trabajo celular, también existen otros modelos más cercanos tanto geográfica como culturalmente. El punto principal es que el visitar cada cierto tiempo una iglesia que desarrolla con éxito su trabajo celular mantendrá apasionado el corazón del Pastor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En esa visitas el Pastor puede hacerse acompañar de uno o más colaboradores cercanos con el fin de compartir observaciones, tener dos puntos de vista, conversar con mayor número de personas, compartir la experiencia al regreso, etc. Esos modelos celulares exitosos no solamente muestran que las cosas son posibles sino que también dan respuestas a las preguntas que surgen en el diario caminar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No es necesario que abramos el camino completo. Hay otros que lo han caminado antes y solamente debemos seguir sus huellas con humildad y creatividad. Luego, el camino llegará a ser tan transitado que los que nos sucedan encontrarán una autopista de libre circulación.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Pastors who are passionate about the cell work.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a complete cell structure leaders are encouraged by supervisors and supervisors by the Pastor of the church. But who encourages the churches’ pastors? Obviously, the incentive must come from external elements to the local congregation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An excellent way to get inspiration is visiting another church that is working very well in the cellular vision. Personally, I always find new inspiration and new ideas when I visit the Full Gospel Church in Yoido, South Korea. Contemplating the living miracle which is Pastor Cho’s church is always a reason to find inner renewal. Such a visit is particularly relevant if it is made during the development of the Church Growth International Conference which is held in October in odd-numbered years. The next will be held in October 2011.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that visit it must not be forgotten to dedicate a morning, even though the best would be a full day to go to the Mountain of Prayer. Only when visiting this place one can have a complete idea of Pastor Cho’s model.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although Yoido’s Church represents the perfect model for cell work, there are other models closer both geographically and culturally. The main point is that visiting every so often a church that develops cell work successfully will keep passionate the heart of the Pastor.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In those visits, the Pastor may be accompanied by one or more close assistants to interchange thoughts, have two different points of view, talk to a larger number of people, to share the experience at the way back, etc. Those successful cellular models show not only that things are possible but also answer questions that arise in the daily walk.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;No need to open up the full path. There are others who have walked it before so we only have to follow in their footsteps with humbleness and creativity. Then, the path will become so trafficked that whom will succeed us will find a highway of free circulation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 사역에서 목회적 갱신&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;잘 기능하는 셀 구조에서, 감독(슈퍼바이저)은 리더들을 격려하고 네트웤 목사님들은 감독을 격려한다. 하지만 담임 목사님은 누가 격려할 것인가? 이러한 격려는 회중 외부에서 와야 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;영감을 얻는 탁월한 방법은 셀 비전이 잘 작동하고 있는 또 다른 교회를 방문하는 것이다. 개인적으로 나는 항상 여의도순복음 교회를 방문할 때, 새로운 영감과 아이디어를 얻는다. 조용기 목사님이 시무하는 교회, 즉 살아있는 기적을 묵상하는 일은 항상 내적으로 새롭게 하는 원동력이 된다. 이러한 방문은 특히 교회성장 국제 컨퍼런스 중에 이루어진다. 다음 번은 2011년 10월에 있을 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;내가 여의도순복음교회에 있을 때, 최소한 한번은 새벽에 기도원에 가는 것을 좋아한다. 기도원을 방문하지 않고 조 목사님의 모델을 이해하는 것은 불가능하다고 나는 확신한다. 여의도순복음교회는 방문해볼만한 훌륭한 모델이지만, 당신이 발견할 수 있는 가장 현실적인 대안은 당신과 지리적으로 그리고 문화적으로 가까운 곳에 있는 셀교회를 방문하는 것이 더 실제적이라 하겠다. 나의 메인 포인트는 열정적인 셀교회를 방문하는 것이 담임 목사님의 열정을 계속해서 셀 사역에 불타오르게 하는 것이라는 점이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 방문을 통해서, 목사님은 한 명 이상의 가까운 동료들과 생각들을 교류하고, 다양한 견해들을 얻고, 보다 많은 사람들과 이야기하고, 핵심들을 나누는 것이 좋은 아이디어라고 본다. 성공하는 셀교회를 방문하는 것은 담임 목사님께 모든 것이 가능하며, 셀교회 사역에 대한 핵심적 질문들에 대한 답들을 얻도록 도와준다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;당신은 완전히 새로운 땅을 개간할 필요가 없다. 어떤 이들이 이미 당신보다 앞서 걸어갔다. 그래서 당신은 겸손함과 창의성을 가지고 그들의 발자취를 따라갈 수 있다. 당신은 영감을 얻으며, 교회가 성장해 가면서, 당신과 교회에게 영감을 불어넣어준 다른사람들에게 은혜의 보답을하며 또 다른 자들에게 영감을 주어야 할 것이다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-7143032526471906974?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/7143032526471906974/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=7143032526471906974' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7143032526471906974'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/7143032526471906974'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/06/pastores-apasionados-por-el-trabajo.html' title='PASTORES APASIONADOS POR EL TRABAJO CELULAR.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-6551909938794379063</id><published>2010-06-10T07:11:00.005-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-10T07:15:32.031-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL PASTOR COMO IMPULSADOR DEL MODELO CELULAR.</title><content type='html'>El Pastor establece las prioridades bíblicas por medio de sus predicaciones. Al enseñar determina los énfasis que seguirá su congregación. Desde ese punto de vista, es definitorio el papel del Pastor para impulsar el modelo celular dentro de su iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Para lograrlo, el Pastor debe utilizar como herramienta de interpretación bíblica el reconocimiento histórico que la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento no poseía lugares de reunión para el culto, solamente las reuniones en las casas.&lt;br /&gt;A partir de ese reconocimiento, la enseñanza bíblica adquiere una nueva perspectiva para interpretar pasajes que tradicionalmente se ven desde nuestra cultura y desde nuestro tiempo. Pero cuando se hace desde la realidad histórica, las personas descubren la vida de la iglesia del Nuevo Testamento y les permite ser animados a una vida cristiana donde pueden servir con sus dones, ejercer el ministerio y ser motivados al trabajo evangelizador.&lt;br /&gt;En la medida que el Pastor desarrolla estos temas, enfatiza el concepto bíblico de la iglesia. Y eso, es la mejor motivación para el trabajo celular. Por supuesto, tal trabajo de sustentación bíblica puede ser completado con el involucramiento del Pastor en el establecimiento de metas, evaluaciones, entrenamiento de líderes, visitas a las casas, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Pastor as the promoter of the cell model.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Pastor sets the biblical priorities through his preaching. With his teachings he determines the emphasis that his congregation will follow. From that point of view, the Pastor’s role is decisive to promote the cell model within his church.&lt;br /&gt;To achieve this, the Pastor should use as a biblical interpretation tool the historical recognition that the New Testament’s church had no meeting places for worship, only the meetings in the houses.&lt;br /&gt;From that recognition, the biblical teaching takes on a new perspective to interpret passages that are traditionally seen from our culture and from our time. But when it is done from the historical reality, people discover the New Testament church’s life and it allows them to be encouraged to live a Christian life where they can serve with their gifts, practice the ministry and be motivated on the evangelization work.&lt;br /&gt;As the pastor develops these subjects, he emphasizes on the biblical concept of the church. And that is the best motivation for cell work. Of course, such a biblically sustainable work can be completed with the Pastor’s involvement in goals setting, assessments, leadership training, home visits, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀 모델의 도모자로서 목사&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;목사님은 설교를 통해서 성경적 우선순위를 정한다. 그의 가르침 속에는 회중들이 따라가야 할 중요한 점들이 담겨 있다. 이러한 견해에서 볼 때, 목사님은 교회 안에서 셀 모델을 도모하는 결정적 역할을 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이를 성취하기 위해서, 목사님은 성경적 해석 도구로서 역사적 증거를 사용해서 신약교회가 예배를 위한 장소는 없었고, 오로지 가정에서의 모임만 있었을을 밝혀야 할 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 증거를 통해서, 성경적 가르침은 우리 시대, 우리 문화에서 전통적으로 이해되어졌던 구절들을 새로운 시각에서 해석하게 된다. 하지만, 역사적 실재를 가지고 이를 행할 때, 사람들은 신약교회의 생활을 발견하게 되고, 그리스도인의 삶을 살도록 격려받게 된다. 사람들이 그들의 은사를 따라 섬기고, 사역을 행하고, 전도에 동기를 부여받게 될 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;목사님이 이러한 주제들을 개발함으로서, 그는 교인들이 교회에 대한 성경적 개념을 이해하도록 도와줄 것이다. 그리고 이것이 바로 셀이 작동케 하는 최고의 동기이다. 목사님이 목표 설정, 평가, 리더십 훈련, 심방 등등에 참여할 때도 많은 도움이된다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-6551909938794379063?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/6551909938794379063/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=6551909938794379063' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6551909938794379063'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/6551909938794379063'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/06/el-pastor-como-impulsador-del-modelo.html' title='EL PASTOR COMO IMPULSADOR DEL MODELO CELULAR.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-8394345000260400532</id><published>2010-06-03T14:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-03T14:07:48.767-07:00</updated><title type='text'>EL PASTOR COMO LÍDER.</title><content type='html'>Es fácil entender que en la Biblia la obra de Dios siempre se relaciona con una persona en particular. Es difícil poder mencionar una obra de Dios sin que la misma esté ligada a un nombre específico. En la lista de los héroes de la fe de Hebreos once, cada hecho salvador de Dios está relacionado con el nombre de una persona.&lt;br /&gt;De igual manera, toda iglesia celular en el mundo se relaciona siempre con el nombre de su Pastor. Es más, podemos desconocer el nombre oficial de muchas iglesias celulares, pero siempre recordaremos el nombre de su Pastor. Solamente eso habla ya mucho del rol que el Pastor de la iglesia posee dentro del modelo celular.&lt;br /&gt;Cuando Dios va a realizar su obra, en primer lugar busca a la persona a quien usará. Esa persona será el canal por el cual Dios actuará. Esto, en ninguna manera significa despreciar el papel de los miembros de la iglesia con sus respectivos dones. Por el contrario, es reconocer el don que Dios ha entregado al Pastor. El mismo nombre de Pastor habla que su tarea es la de guiar y dirigir. Consecuentemente, el Pastor es quien debe colocarse al frente del trabajo celular, el cual, no es otro trabajo, es el SER iglesia. Una tarea indelegable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The Pastor as leader.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is easy to understand that in the Bible God's work is always related to a particular person. It is difficult to mention a work of God without it being linked to a specific name. In the list of heroes of the faith in Hebrews 11, each of God’s saving fact is connected with a person’s name.&lt;br /&gt;In a similar way, every cell church in the world is always related to the name of its Pastor. Moreover, we can be unfamiliar with the official name of many cell churches, but we’ll always remember their Pastor’s name. Only that speaks a lot of the role that the pastor of the church has within the cell model.&lt;br /&gt;When God is about to do his work, He looks first for the person He’ll use. That person will be the channel through which God will act. This doesn’t mean in any way to despise the role of the church’s members with their respective gifts; on the contrary, it is about recognizing the gift God has given to the Pastor. The name Pastor, itself, speaks of his duty which is to guide and direct. Consequently, the pastor is who must place himself in front of the cell work, which is no other work, is to BE the church. An undelegated task.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;리더로서 목사&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;성경에서, 하나님의 일은 항상 어느 특정한 사람과 연관 있음을 이해하는 일은 어렵지가 않다. 어느 특정한 이름과 연결지음이 없이 하나님의 일을 언급하는 일이 진짜 어렵다. 히브리서 11장에서 믿음의 영웅들을 보면서, 하나님의 활동 각각에 대해서 사람들의 이름과 연결되어 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;같은 방식으로, 세상의 모든 셀교회는 항상 그 교회의 목사님 이름과 연결짓는다. 우리는 심지어 셀교회의 공식적 이름에는 익숙히 있지 않으면서도, 그 교회의 목사님 성함은 기억을 한다. 이 사실은 셀모델에서 교회의 목사님이 얼마나 중요한 역할을 수행하는지를 잘 말해준다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;하나님께서 그분의 일을 수행하실 때, 주님께서 사용하실 사람을 먼저 찾으신다. 그 사람은 하나님께서 행하실 일의 통로가 될 것이다. 이것은 교인들의 역할을 무시한다는 의미가 아니다. 그와는 반대로, 하나님께서 목사님에게 주신 은사를 인지하는 것이다. 목사라는 직책 자체가 가이드와 방향 설정의 의무가 있음을 말해준다. 결국, 목회자는 셀 사역 전방에서 있어야만 하는 사람이다. 그리고 이것은 목회자가 위임할수 있는사역이 아니다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-8394345000260400532?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/8394345000260400532/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=8394345000260400532' title='2 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8394345000260400532'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/8394345000260400532'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/06/el-pastor-como-lider.html' title='EL PASTOR COMO LÍDER.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-4110182250239001461</id><published>2010-05-27T06:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-27T06:19:21.465-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LOS DONES, EL SERVICIO Y LAS FUNCIONES DE LA CÉLULA.</title><content type='html'>Como bien lo expuso Joel Comiskey en su blog sobre La Trinidad y el Ministerio Celular, la presencia de Dios llena cada célula a partir que ella constituye el Cuerpo de Cristo.&lt;br /&gt;El pasaje que va de 1 de Corintios 11:2 al 14:40, que tradicionalmente se interpreta como referido al culto cristiano (y éste entendido como la reunión tradicional de la iglesia en un edificio), adquiere nuevo significado al recordar que, en sus primeros siglos, los cristianos no poseyeron edificios para el culto. Consecuentemente, el pasaje habla sobre lo que sucedía en las reuniones en casas de los primeros cristianos.&lt;br /&gt;Dentro de ese contexto se encuentra el pasaje que dice: ‘Hay diversos dones, pero un mismo Espíritu. Hay diversas maneras de servir, pero un mismo Señor. Hay diversas funciones, pero es un mismo Dios el que hace todas las cosas en todos’ 1 Co. 12:4-6. El pasaje no sólo es importante porque se menciona el Espíritu, el Señor y a Dios: formas litúrgicas de referirse a el Espíritu, el Hijo y el Padre. Más que eso, es importante porque expresa cómo el dinamismo de la Trinidad era lo que daba sentido a las reuniones en casas.&lt;br /&gt;Sin la Trinidad otorgando dones, servicios y funciones a los miembros de la célula, ésta no tendría vida ni atractivo. Es la presencia y la operación misericordiosa de la Trinidad de Dios la que permite que cada creyente se reúna en dirección a Cristo y cada uno ejercite el papel que le corresponde como miembro del Cuerpo. Es de esa manera como los creyentes son fortalecidos y edificados los unos a los otros.&lt;br /&gt;Tal actividad explica cómo la iglesia primitiva nació, creció y se estableció. Todo fue por medio de la presencia y acción vivificadora del Dios trino en medio de ellos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;The gifts, the service and different ways how to serve in a cell.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As it was well expounded by Joel Comiskey in his blog about the Trinity and Cell Ministry, the presence of God fills each cell, since it constitutes the Body of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;The passage in 1 Corinthians 11:2 to 14:40, which is traditionally interpreted as referring to the Christian celebration (and this is understood as the traditional church meeting in a building), acquires new meaning as we remember that Christians did not have buildings to gather for celebrations in their early centuries. Consequently, the passage talks about what happened in the early Christians house meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within this context is the passage that says: “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different ways how to serve, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men” 1 Corinthians 12:4-6. The passage is not only important because it mentions the Spirit, The Lord and God: liturgical ways to refer to the Spirit, the Son and the Father. More than that, it is important because it expresses how was the dynamism of the Trinity what gave meaning to the house meetings.&lt;br /&gt;Without the Trinity imparting gifts, services and functions to the cell members, the cell would have no life or attractiveness. It is the presence and the merciful operation of God’s Trinity which allows every believer to reunite toward Christ and to practice its corresponding role as a member of the Body. That is how the believers are strengthened and are being built together.&lt;br /&gt;Such activity explains how the early church was born, raised and established. It was all through the presence and vivifying action of the Triune God in their midst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;삼위일체와 셀사역의 은사들/기능들&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;죠엘 코미스키는 삼위일체와 셀 사역에 대해서 잘 설명해 주었다. 셀이 그리스도의 몸을 구성하기에, 하나님의 임재가 각 셀들에 충만해 임해야 한다는 것이 사실이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;고린도전서 11:2에서 14:40까지에 대해서, 전통적으로 기독교의 축제 예배(그리고 건물 안에서 전통적인 교회 모임으로 이해한다)에 대해서 언급하는 것으로 해석하고 있는데, 기독교인들은 2세기가 접어들 때까지 축제예배를 위한 모임 장소로 쓰일 건물을 갖고 있지 않았다. 그 구절은 초대 기독교 가정 모임에서 일어난 일에 대해서 이야기하는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이 본문 속에서 말하고자 하는 말씀은: "은사는 여러 가지나 성령은 같고 직분은 여러 가지나 주는 같으며 또 사역은 여러 가지나 모든 것을 모든 사람 가운데서 이루시는 하나님은 같으니"(고린도전서 12:4-6). 이 구절은 성령, 주, 그리고 하나님(성령, 성자, 그리고 성부를 언급하는 방식)을 언급하고 있기 때문에 중요할 뿐만 아니라, 그보다 더 중요한 것으로, 삼위일체의 역동성이 가정 모임에 어떻게 의미를 부여하고 있는지를 표현해 주기 때문에 또한 중요하다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀 멤버들에게 은사, 섬김, 그리고 기능들을 나누어 주시는 삼위일체가 없다면, 셀은 생명도 매력도 없어질 것이다. 모든 신자들이 그리스도를 향하여 다시 하나가 되고, 몸의 지체로서 그에 따른 역할을 수행하도록 허락하시는 삼위일체의 하나님이 임하시고, 자비롭게 운행하시는 것이다. 이것이 바로 신자들이 어떻게 강해지고 함께 세워지는지를 보여주는 것이다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;이러한 활동은 초대교회가 어떻게 탄생해서, 성장하고 세워졌는지를 설명해 준다. 그들 중심에 계신 삼위일체의 하나님께서 임하시고, 생동력있게 활동하심을 통해서 모든 것이 되어졌다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-4110182250239001461?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/4110182250239001461/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=4110182250239001461' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4110182250239001461'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/4110182250239001461'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/05/los-dones-el-servicio-y-las-funciones.html' title='LOS DONES, EL SERVICIO Y LAS FUNCIONES DE LA CÉLULA.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1143717008735762480</id><published>2010-05-20T04:52:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-20T04:53:48.442-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LÍDERES DE ORACIÓN.</title><content type='html'>El líder es un modelo en muchos sentidos para los miembros de la célula. Siendo que la oración es fundamental para el trabajo celular, el líder debe ser también un modelo en esa área. Además de llevar la vida de oración que todo cristiano debe llevar, se hace énfasis para que los líderes coloquen la oración como su prioridad.&lt;br /&gt;En nuestro caso, diariamente se está recordando a través de nuestras emisoras de radio la responsabilidad que tiene todo líder de hacer de la oración su prioridad. Además, cada mes, la iglesia realiza una vigilia de oración durante toda la noche. Dado que los líderes son los responsables de llevar a la iglesia a los hermanos y amigos, ellos mismos no pueden sustraerse de su responsabilidad de participar en esas vigilias.&lt;br /&gt;Lo mismo sucede con otras actividades de oración en la iglesia como los ayunos, los retiros, los programas de oración sistemáticos, etc. Cuando el líder se involucra en todas estas actividades se convierte no sólo en un líder de célula sino que también en un líder de oración. Los demás miembros de la célula tienden a seguir su modelo.&lt;br /&gt;Por ello, la vida de oración del líder es fundamental para el trabajo. La evangelización a través de células no puede hacerse de manera mecánica, se necesita depender todo el tiempo de la oración y no de la pericia que pueda desarrollarse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Prayer leaders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leader is in many ways a model for the cell members. Since prayer is essential for cell work, the leader should be a model in that area. Besides living the life of prayer that every Christian must live, there is an emphasis made on the leaders to place prayer as their priority.&lt;br /&gt;In our case, through our radio stations there is a daily reminder for the leaders about their responsibility towards prayer as their priority. In addition, each month, the church has an all night prayer meeting. Since leaders are the ones responsible to bring to church the brethren and friends, they themselves can not escape from their responsibility to participate in these vigils.&lt;br /&gt;The same applies to other church activities regarding prayer, as fasting, retreats, the systematic prayer programs, etc. When the leader participates in these activities he becomes not only a cell leader but also a prayer leader. The rest of the cell members tend to follow his example.&lt;br /&gt;Therefore the leader's prayer life is fundamental to the cell work. Evangelization through cells can not be done mechanically; you need to depend on prayer at all time and not on the expertness that can be developed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;기도의 리더&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;리더는 셀 멤버의 모델이 된다. 기도가 셀 사역에서 필수적이기에, 리더는 이 영역에서도 모델이 되어야 할 것이다. 모든 신자들이 기도생활하며 살아야만 하는 것에다가, 리더는 기도를 그들의 우선순위로 삼고 주도적인 수고를 해야 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림 교회에서, 우리의 라디오 방송국들을 통해서 기도를 우선순위로 놓도록 우리의 리더들에게 매일 상기시킨다. 추가적으로, 매달, 교회는 잠샘 기도 모임을 가진다. 리더들이 그들의 멤버들과 친구들을 교회로 인도하는 책임을 맡는 자들이기에, 그들은 또한 이러한 철야 기도 모임에도 참석해야 한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;금식, 수양회, 그리고 다른 기도 프로그램 등과 같이, 기도와 관련된 교회의 다른 활동들에서도 동일하게 적용된다. 리더가 이러한 활동에 참여할 때, 그는 셀 리더가 될뿐만 아니라, 기도의 리더가 된다. 나머지 셀 멤버들이 그/그녀의 본을 따르는 경향이 있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;그러므로, 리더의 기도 생활은 셀 사역에서 토대가 된다. 셀을 통한 전도는 기계적으로 행해질 수없다. 당신은 항상 기도에 의존할 필요가 있다, 당신 혼자만의 수고, 경험, 지식보다는.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1143717008735762480?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1143717008735762480/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1143717008735762480' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1143717008735762480'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1143717008735762480'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/05/lideres-de-oracion.html' title='LÍDERES DE ORACIÓN.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-1690560891106342623</id><published>2010-05-13T22:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-13T22:25:24.934-07:00</updated><title type='text'>ORANDO POR LOS INVITADOS Y SUS NECESIDADES.</title><content type='html'>La célula experimenta, como tal, una vida de oración. Ésta es de tipo convenida, es decir, los miembros de la célula se unen por peticiones específicas.&lt;br /&gt;En la reunión de planificación, que se realiza unos días antes de la reunión de célula, el núcleo se reúne para preparar el trabajo para la siguiente reunión de célula. Una parte importante de dicha planificación es la oración unida a favor de cada una de las personas que serán invitadas. Sus nombres han sido escritos previamente por el líder y se intercede por su conversión.&lt;br /&gt;Otro momento importante de oración en la célula es el que se produce el día de la reunión de célula propiamente dicha. Al final de la enseñanza de la palabra, se realiza una oración convenida por las necesidades que los asistentes expresan. Se ora por los enfermos y por otro tipo de situaciones. Es una oración que también se hace de manera unida.&lt;br /&gt;La práctica de la oración en la célula se convierte en un elemento unificador para sus miembros, principalmente para el núcleo de la célula. Produce un vínculo espiritual que fortalece la comunión. Cada vez que se producen situaciones inesperadas o necesidades especiales, las personas están ya predispuestas para la oración. Además, incluyen en su oración unida temas como los del crecimiento, la multiplicación, las conversiones y la formación de nuevos líderes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Praying for the guests and their needs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cell, as such, experiments a life of prayer. This is an agreed prayer, that is, the cell members gather to pray for specific requests.&lt;br /&gt;In the planning meeting, held just days before the cell meeting, the core gathers to prepare the work for the following cell meeting. An important part of that planning is the agreed prayer for each of the persons to be invited. Their names have been previously written down by the leader and intercession is made for their conversion. &lt;br /&gt;Another important moment of prayer in the cell is produced on the very same day of the cell meeting. At the end of the teaching, an agreed prayer is made for the attendees expressed needs. A prayer for the sick and for other situations is made. It is a prayer which is also made in agreement. &lt;br /&gt;The practice of prayer in the cell becomes a unifying element for its members, mainly to the cell’s core. Produces a spiritual bond that strengthens the fellowship. Each time there are unexpected situations or special needs, people are already predisposed for prayer. In addition, topics such as growth, multiplication, conversion and training of new leaders are included in their agreed prayer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;셀에서 사람들의 필요를 위해 기도하기&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀은 기도 생활을 경험해야 할 것이다. 셀 멤버들은 특별한 기도 제목을 놓고 기도 하기 위해 모인다. 계획 모임은, 셀 모임 하루 전에는 모인다. 토요일 밤 셀모임을 위해서 핵심들이 준비하기 위해 모인다. 계획 모임의 중요한 부분은 초대받은 각 사람들이 기도에 동의하게 하는 것이다. 그들의 이름은 리더에 의해서 이미 기록되어졌다. 중보는 그들의 회심을 낳는다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀에서 기도의 또 다른 중요한 순간은 셀모임 바로 당일에 일어난다. 말씀 시간이 끝낼 때, 기도는 참석한 자들의 필요들을 놓고 이루어진다. 기도는 병자와 곤궁한 자를 위해서 이루어지는 것은 당연하다. 모든 셀멤버들이 기도하기를 동의한다. 마치 예수님께서 그분의 이름으로 우리가 함께 기도하라고 말씀하신 것처럼.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;셀에서 기도는 멤버들을 하나되게 하는 요소가 된다. 특히 핵심 멤버들에게는. 하나된 기도는 친교를 강화시키는 영적 연대 고리를 낳는다. 항상 예기치 못한 상황들과 필요들이 있기 때문에, 우리 교인들은 기도하도록 준비되어 있다. 게다가 성장, 번식, 회심, 그리고 새로운 리더들을위한 훈련 등과 같은 제목들이 이러한 함께 기도하는 시간에 드려진다.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4780938299766042111-1690560891106342623?l=celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/feeds/1690560891106342623/comments/default' title='Enviar comentarios'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4780938299766042111&amp;postID=1690560891106342623' title='0 comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1690560891106342623'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4780938299766042111/posts/default/1690560891106342623'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://celulasquesemultiplican.blogspot.com/2010/05/orando-por-los-invitados-y-sus.html' title='ORANDO POR LOS INVITADOS Y SUS NECESIDADES.'/><author><name>Mario Vega</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4780938299766042111.post-7174558340846845314</id><published>2010-05-06T19:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-06T19:47:46.282-07:00</updated><title type='text'>LA ORACIÓN Y EL CRECIMIENTO DE LA IGLESIA.</title><content type='html'>Dado que Elim aprendió el trabajo celular de la iglesia del Pastor Cho, en Corea, desde un principio supimos que la oración juega un papel fundamental en el crecimiento de la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;La práctica de la oración, además de fomentarse a título personal, también se fomenta en el ámbito corporativo. Como iglesia, hemos emprendido diversas campañas sistemáticas de oración.&lt;br /&gt;En el presente, llevamos cuatro años de haber iniciado un nuevo esfuerzo de ayuno y oración. Diariamente, un promedio de entre 60 a 100 personas, oran por cinco peticiones específicas. Dentro de esas cinco peticiones se mencionan las metas quinquenales de crecimiento de la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;En otras ocasiones, hemos realizado esfuerzos más intensos de oración. Como cuando realizamos cadenas continuas de oración por 24 horas durante períodos de 30 días. Estos esfuerzos de oración más intensos se han hecho por necesidades más específicas. Como cuando se realizan los grandes eventos de la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;Por otra parte, en la actualidad, estamos realizando otro esfuerzo adicional orando y ayunando toda la iglesia un día cada mes para orar específicamente por el problema de la violencia en el país. El Salvador es, probablemente, el país con más alta tasa de homicidios en Latinoamérica. En ese día de ayuno, que es un sábado al mes, no solamente se reúne la mega iglesia de la ciudad capital a orar sino que también se suman las demás filiales de Elim dentro del país e incluso iglesias de otras denominaciones.&lt;br /&gt;La oración se realiza por seis peticiones específicas y se hace de manera sincronizada ya que la oración es transmitida por el canal de televisión de la iglesia y sus seis emisoras de radio. Las iglesias filiales proyectan la imagen del canal de televisión en sus localidades o conectan a su sonido local el audio de la radio. De esa manera, en todo el país, se está orando por las mismas peticiones al mismo tiempo.&lt;br /&gt;La oración es vista con toda normalidad por la iglesia y las personas se prestan muy animadas a participar de estos esfuerzos. Para ellos no es una carga sino que una práctica que disfrutan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN INGLÉS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Prayer and church growth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to the fact that Elim learned about cell work from Pastor Cho’s church in Korea, we knew from the start that prayer plays an important role in church growth.&lt;br /&gt;The practice of prayer, besides being promoted on a personal level, it is also promoted on a corporate level. As a church, we have undertaken a number of systematic prayer campaigns.&lt;br /&gt;At present, we have four years since we started a new effort of fasting and prayer. Everyday, an average of 60 to 100 people pray for five specific requests. Within these five requests the five-year church growth goals are mentioned.&lt;br /&gt;At other times, we have made more intensive prayer efforts. Like when we made continuous prayer chains for 24 hours during periods of 30 days. These more intense prayer efforts have been made for more specific needs, as when preparing for a big rally. &lt;br /&gt;Moreover, at present, we are making another extra effort; the whole church is praying and fasting one day of each month specifically for the problem of violence in the country. El Salvador is probably the country with the highest homicide rate in Latin America. In that day of fasting, which is one Saturday of each month, not only the mega church gathers to pray in the capital city, but also the other branch churches that are located throughout the country and even churches of other denominations.&lt;br /&gt;The prayer is made for six specific requests and it is conducted in a synchronized way since the prayer is aired on the church’s television channel and on its six radio stations. The branch churches project the television channel’s image in their localities or connect to their local sound the audio from the radio. In that way, the entire country is praying for the same requests at the same time. &lt;br /&gt;Prayer is seen as a normal thing by the church and the people are willing to be part of these efforts. For them this is not a burden but a practice they enjoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;VERSIÓN EN COREANO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;기도와 교회 성장&lt;br /&gt;-마리오 베가&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;엘림교회가 조용기 목사님 교회로부터 셀교회에 대해서 배웠다는 점 덕분에, 우리는 시작부터 기도가 교회 성장의 중요한 역할을 차지했음을 잘 안다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;기도는 개인적으로 드리는 기도에다가, 연합하여 드리는 기도 또한 있어야 한다. 교회로서, 우리는 조직적인 기도 캠페인들을 행한다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;4년 전, 우리는 금식기도를 새롭게 시작하였다. 매일 평균적으로 60-100명의 사람들이 5가지 기도 제목을 놓고 기도 드린다. 이러한 다섯 가지 제목들에는, 5개년 교회 성장 목표 또한 들어있다.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;또, 우리는 보다 강력한 기도의 수고를 행한다. 30일 동안 24시간 기도 연속 체인과 같은 것을 행한다. 이러한 강도 높은 기도의 수고는 보다 특별한 필요들을 놓고 기도 드린다. 큰 행사를 준비할 때 드린
