In New Testament times, the Roman Road system was strategic in God's plan. It enabled the spread of the Gospel throughout the then-known world. In the same way, the Internet today is a worldwide network which can facilitate effective Gospel communication.
Now fast forward some 2,000 years. They call the Internet the "Information Superhighway." It has opened up the whole world for the instantaneous exchange of information. For believers and followers of Jesus Christ and His Great Commandment in Matthew 28 to "go into the whole world" and tell others about him, the Internet is a huge opportunity.
So huge that April 26, 2009 has been designated Internet Evangelism Day - a worldwide focus day which aimed at empowering churches and other groups to use the Web to spread the Good news of Jesus Christ.
