The spread of the Apostolic Christian Church in Mexico has occurred much as it always has in other parts of the world. Small gatherings and congregations have grown because believers shared their faith with their friends, neighbors, and family…. ready always to an answer of the hope that lies within them. In many cases, the brethren in Mexico make themselves available to visit homes of those who are seeking for truth, to share the Word of God on an individual basis. This has been a vibrant affirmation of the Scripture, “Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.” The Word of God, put into practice in an obedient life, is a compelling witness to the mercy and power of God anywhere in the world.
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!” But they have not all obeyed the gospel, for Esaias saith, “Lord, who hath believed our report?” So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:14-17
