| Witnesses
defined: Acts
1:8 says that after we are filled with the Holy Spirit, that we shall be
the Lord's witnesses. This is not a request but a demand. Whether
good or bad, you are a witness. Your witness is not
for your local church but for the Lord Jesus Christ!
The word witness is translated "martyr."
Now this verse is not saying that everyone must physically die
a martyr's death. Yet all must die. Our personality must die.
All of our good reasons not to witness must die. Then by
faith, count all the above as LOSS and press toward the mark,
taking hold of the prize.

Soul Winning Cell Groups: These
home meetings are a training ground for soul winners. But as
alcoholics have AA to encourage one another and have fellowship, so also
Soul Winners must be encouraged and have fellowship with those of
like vision. AA meetings contain enough support to help keep these
members maintaining their goal for one more week. Every
believer's goal should be to "be on call" 24-7 to give their
witness.
LHI recognizes these
truths:
 | Soul Winners are in a minority. (Less than 20% of
true Christians have led one person to the Lord in their
entire life.) |
|
Soul
Winners NEED support groups to succeed. |
|
Soul
Winners NEED to hear testimonies from those who are
succeeding. |

Cell group
development: The
heart of LHI's vision is duplication and multiplication.
For example, when the group grows to twelve it's time for two new
cells of six each. By sharing your testimony these new groups grow
to twelve by multiplication. As for the word duplicate ,we desire
our group leaders to duplicate the vision given them.
The first group started in your home
could quickly increase to nearly a hundred people by the end of that
same year. That translates into approximately eight groups of twelve
each, or fifteen groups of six each.

Cell Group
Format: We
will provide the teaching to cell group leaders on cassette or CD
Rom. It's important for group leaders to adhere to the format of
these meetings.
Meetings should last about one hour
and should include:
- Teaching from cassette.
- Success testimonies of being a
witness.
- Prayer one for another (should be
audibly in your known language.)
- Fellowship with one another.
(Please offer coffee ONLY).
| Group leaders do not have to lead
their group from their own home. |
| Every group leader should find one
who he could also mentor. |
Our vision is to increase the kingdom
of God in every local community in the world. We must duplicate
the success God gives us into those whom we mentor. The success of
the home groups comes from every member keeping their focus on the
vision.

Testimonies: Taken from
one cell group leader from the country of Georgia. (unedited)

Head: The
founder of LHI, Daryl Thies, has flowed in the apostolic gift of God for
over ten years. This
mantle or covering is not yet understood in the Body of
Christ. (To
Him the Porter Openeth/e-books) Latter House
Meetings that are submitted to it's head have an apostolic covering. Paul was called to the
Gentiles. Peter was called to the Jews. Daryl Thies is an
apostle of reconciliation. He is called to all those who have a
burden to reconcile the world back to Jesus. return

Do I Start?: Do you sense the Lord is tugging at your heart to
contact us? Remember, we are not looking for preachers but rather
those who would adhere to the vision we give them in these
meetings. Also, these home group meetings should never
replace the fellowship people have in their individual churches. Also
,start by clicking on the corporate prayer icon below. Read
the prayer out loud, then print it. If you sense these
meetings are needed, start joining with other LHI partners, in
many languages around the world by praying this prayer
daily. 
Potential
LHI home group leaders: Please send an e-mail
requesting more
information. We will return an application to
you.
