Romans 16:23 Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.

In the beginning of the Business and Industry Missions meetings, people thirsty for the Gospel gathered. There were many pastors among them as well. After hearing the Business and Industry Missions message, the pastors gained strength. Then, through Team Ministry, businesspeople began to gather. Now, young businesspeople and Remnants are arising as well. It was the same for Rome evangelization. What the Apostles and disciples of Christ began in earnest, church officers who were businesspeople carried it out, then the Remnants completed it. What must businesspeople absolutely know?
1. A Businessperson Who Does Not Know the Gospel
Businesspeople who do not know the Gospel serve as slaves under Satan. However, the problem is those businesspeople are completely unaware that they are Satan’s servants. They are utterly trapped in Genesis 3, 6, and 11 and are “successful failures.” Moreover, they are bound by superstitions, divinations, and idols and leave behind the cultures of darkness and disasters. Simply stated, they live a life of destruction. (John 8:44)
2. A Businessperson Who Knows the Gospel
A businessperson who knows the Gospel can save those people. If you are a businessperson with the Gospel, your correct beginning is “as it goes well with your soul.” (3 John 1:2) Then, you can enjoy the blessing of “all may go well with you.” Furthermore, you will receive the eternal blessing of being used for Rome evangelization. (Romans 16:23) Gaius who helped Paul was that witness. Gaius, a classy businessperson, lived the most valuable life and a life without regrets. Quartus and Erastus, as well as Gaius, were the absolute disciples who were used for Rome evangelization.
3. A Businessperson Who Enjoys Everything in the Gospel
The word “with” refers to the blessing of salvation. This is a mystery that surpasses man’s limitations. The blessing of Immanuel is the mystery of enjoying “God with us.” A person who possesses this mystery can have “oneness” with God in everything he does. Most people fall into trials because of problems related to work or people. There are even conflicts that arise while doing ministry and within the church. However, problems are not considered issues for the businessperson with the Gospel because he can enjoy the blessings of “WITH, Immanuel, and oneness.” Therefore, problems become opportunities for them to experience great blessings.
[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, let me be a businessperson who enjoys everything in the Gospel as I save the church, Remnants, and the 237 nations.
