– Ministry-Training and Church-Planting Center –
Dear Friends, Family, and Partners,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
How thrilled and grateful I am to share with you the vision and work of Mission India & Beyond (MIB). Since the inception of the ministry in 2011, God has been doing great things as a result of faithful mission partners and MIB frontline shepherds. Though we currently operate the ministry in a rented building, and we have seen some rough times, God has been faithful to us. Looking back, we see His faithfulness in leading us thus far, and we confidently move forward towards a global vision to reach unreached India and neighboring countries. Together, as we hold on to the faithfulness of our God, we can do great things to fulfil the Great Commission of our Lord.
I humbly thank the Lord and those who support Mission India & Beyond. I do not manage Mission India & Beyond by my own effort. MIB’s ministry training and church planting ministry are only possible by God’s grace and with the support of visionary co-workers and partners. Thank you for partnering with us. You are bringing the Word of God to needy, untrained, new believers and unreached people of India and beyond. Our outreach would not be possible without your continued support.
I thank God for my family, MIB staff and the church planters for their faithful support in all our endeavors. We are called to develop Christ-like leaders to reach unreached India and beyond. We are called to seek His Kingdom first, to serve Him and Him alone, and to lay down our lives, ourselves, our goals, and our all. I praise and thank God for guiding this team and fulfilling His promises. May we see God open more doors for Mission India & Beyond and witness His Kingdom come.
Would you please partner with us!

1. SOUTH ASIA BAPTIST COLLEGE OF THEOLOGY & MISSION (SABCT&M)
We are dedicated to taking Christ to millions and we have found that the most effective way to do this is by training missionaries and church planters.
2. CHURCH BASED CHRISTIAN BASIC THEOLOGICAL TRAINING (CBCBTT)
MIB is building the Kingdom of God with a clear vision, strategy in developing grass-root level church planters. We are working with our alumni and local church leaders in imparting Biblical sound doctrines to the local believers and maturing the new believers.
3. REMOTE AREA EVANGELISM & CHURCHPLANTING
Even in a difficult situation, we can still be fruitful by the grace of God and through prayer support from friends and like-minded mission partners.
Evangelism and Church planting are very important part of the work of MIB-SABCT&M. Our Bible College equips church planters and sends them out to the places where there is no church. As their home fellowship groups grow in size, it become necessary to build a church hall. Most of these villages are too poor to afford the construction. Therefore, I am inviting all of us who has roof on our head to take this opportunity to help our fellow Christian by contributing even a small amount.
about us
MIB
Mission India & Beyond is a biblical based educational and church planting ministry based on the Matthew 28: 18-20 vision. MIB came into existence as a result of the Lord’s impression to Telien Thangneilien Kom, and was united by his wife T. Neishoning after their marriage in the year 2011, as felt the need for producing Christ-like leaders to reach the millions of lost souls to established Bible believing churches in India and beyond. The vision came into practices in the form of ministry in 2011.
The ministry had a humble beginning in Shillong in a rented building that consisted of seven rooms with three faculty and twelve students. After few months of running the ministry, the local Headmen have tightened their rules and regulation in the locality, owing to that MIB was restricted to put up the ministry’s sign board and also warned by the local headman and village defense force to discontinued conducting any related to the affairs of ministry in the building. MIB was not able to operate the ministry peacefully because of the oppression from the local headman and village defense force. Therefore, the Ministry was shifted to Guwahati in March 2015 since then, MIB is able to continue to grow and have been upgrade peacefully.

doctrinal
statement of faith
I. The Scriptures
We believe all the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are divinely Inspired by God. We believe that scripture reveals the Mind of God to man, and points to the Lord Jesus Christ and the only way of Salvation through Him. The scriptures are the only infallible guide for our daily thought-life as well as our practical, moral, and spiritual instruction.
II. The Godhead
We believe that the Godhead eternally exists in three persons – the Father, the Son, and the Holy spirit – and that these three are one God, having the precise same nature, attributes, and perfections and worthy of precisely the same honor, confidence, worship, and obedience.
III. Angels, fallen and Unfallen
We believe that God created an innumerable company of sinless, spiritual beings, known as angels; that one, “the anointed cherub” – the highest in rank – sinned through pride, thereby becoming Satan; that a great company of angels followed him in his moral fall, some of whom became demons and are active as his agents and associates in the prosecution of his unholy purposes, while others who fell are “reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.”
IV. Man, Created and Fallen
We believe that man was originally created in the image and after the likeness of God, as God’s representative ‘vice-regent,’ and that he fell through sin, in consequence losing his spiritual life. As fallen, he is “dead in trespasses and sins”, and that he became subject to the reign of sin and the power of the devil.
V. The Incarnation of Jesus Christ
We believe that, as provided and purposed by God and as preannounced in the prophecies of the Scriptures, the eternal Son of God came into this world that He might reconcile men to God and become the Redeemer of a lost world. To this end He was born of the virgin, and received a human body and a sinless human nature. We believe that, according to the scriptures, He rose from the dead in the same body, though glorified, in which He had lived and died, and that His resurrection body is the pattern of that body which ultimately will be given to all believers.
VI. Salvation Only through Jesus Christ
We believe that, owing to spiritual death through sin, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless Born Again; and that no degree of reformation however great, no attainment in morality however high, no culture however attractive, no baptism or other ordinance however administrated, can help the sinner to take even one step toward heaven; but a new nature imparted from above, a new life implanted by the Holy Spirit through the Word, is absolutely essential to salvation, and only those thus saved are sons of God.
VII. Eternal Security
We believe that God keeps eternally all those who Receive salvation and that none are Ever Lost. God will, however, chasten and correct His own infinite love; but having undertaken to save them and keep them forever, apart from all human merit, He, who cannot fail, will in the end present every one faultless in Christ, and on His merits alone, before the presence of His glory and conformed to the image of His Son. We believe that saints can have eternal assurance that they are the children of God and so are eternally kept by the power of God. This assurance gives confidence and peace, helping the believer grow in spiritual maturity.
VIII. The Holy Spirit
We believe that the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Trinity, though omnipresent from all eternity, took up His abode in the world in a special sense on the day of Pentecost to the divine promise. By His baptism He unites all to Jesus Christ in one body and indwells every true believer. As the Indwelling One, He is the Source of all power, all acceptable worship and service, and all spiritual gifts.
IX. The Great Commission
We believe that it is the explicit command of our Lord Jesus Christ to win the lost, and make disciples in accordance with His Gospel, through evangelism of non-believers and instruction of believers, for the building up of the body of Christ. Every generation of the Church Age has this Divine responsibility.
X. The Tribulation Period
We believe that the rapture of the church will be followed by the fulfillment of Israel’s seventieth week (Dan. 9:27; Rev. 6:1-19:21) during which the church, the body of Christ, will be in heaven. The signing of the 7-year Peace Treaty (covenant) with Israel will be the trigger point. The whole period of Israel’s seventieth week will be a time of judgment on the whole earth, at the end of which “the times of the Gentiles” will be brought to a close. The latter half of this period will be the time of Jacob’s trouble Jer. 30:70, which out Lord called the great tribulation (Mt. 24:15-21). We believe that universal righteousness will not be realized previous to the second coming of Jesus Christ, but that the world is day by day ripening for judgment and that the age will end with a fearful apostasy.
XI. The Second Coming of Jesus Christ
We believe that the period of great tribulation in the earth will be climaxed by the return of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth as He went. The millennial age will follow, with Satan bound. Israel will be restored to her own land and the Abrahamic Covenant will be fulfilled by the consummation of it three divisions – Land (Palestinic Covenant), Seed (Davidic Covenant), and Blessing (New Covenant finally brought to complete fruition). The whole Jewish world that survives will be brought to a complete knowledge of the Messiah.
XII. The Eternal State
We believe that at death the spirit and souls of those who have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ for salvation pass immediately into His presence and there remain in conscious bliss until the resurrection of the glorified body when Christ comes for His own, whereupon soul and body reunited shall be associated with Him forever in glory; but the spirits and souls of the unbelieving remain in Hell after death conscious of condemnation and in misery until the final judgment of the Great White Throne at the close of the millennium, when soul and body reunited shall be cast into the Lake of fire, not to be annihilated, but to be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of His power.
