3ABN AND AMAZING FACTS TO UNITE
MINISTRIES

“If Christians were to act in concert,
moving forward as one, under the direction of one Power,
for the accomplishment of one purpose, they would move
the world.”-- Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 221.

West Frankfort, IL – April 19, 2007 –
Three Angels Broadcasting Network (3ABN) and Amazing
Facts Ministries today announced upcoming plans for
uniting  the two international Christian media
ministries. Lauding the global platform for evangelism
this union will create, the Boards of Directors of both
ministries unanimously approved moving toward joining
the ministries under a new board and
constituency.

Founded in 1984, 3ABN began
broadcasting on November 23, 1986 and now transmits its
signal to nine satellites that carry it to every
inhabited continent with a potential viewing audience of
hundreds of millions. In addition to its
English-speaking television network, 3ABN operates 3ABN
Books, 3ABN Radio and 3ABN Latino Television networks,
along with a 3ABN television and radio production center
in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia. The ministry has also
announced plans to launch the 3ABN International Network
before the year’s end. The second largest Christian
network in North America (in numbers of owned and
operated UHF stations), 3ABN also has full-power
stations in Papua New Guinea, Uganda, and the
Philippines.

Beginning with a fifteen-minute
radio broadcast in 1966,  Amazing Facts has grown
into a successful soul-winning dynamo.  For over
forty years Amazing Facts has provided strong
evangelistic, ministry through an array of services that
include evangelistic training through the Amazing Facts
Center of Evangelism (AFCOE), a team of live itinerant
evangelists, publishing, radio and television
broadcasts, Bible school and a popular internet
ministry.

While there are still a number of
organizational details to be worked out, with good
council both ministries are confident these things can
be accomplished rapidly.  For the immediate future
we anticipate most of the normal operations at both
ministries will remain the same.  Our goal will be
to optimize greater evangelistic impact to the world,
more efficient service to the body of Christ and better
stewardship of resources through this dynamic
partnership.

In making the announcement, 3ABN’s
Founder Danny Shelton stated, “We’re excited about
uniting our ministries, which will accelerate our array
of evangelistic services to reach the multitudes. The
Spirit-filled speakers of Amazing Facts will share the
undiluted truth of God’s Word on 3ABN’s global platform.
The ministries will mobilize an army of Christians to
conduct Bible studies in cities worldwide. Time is
short—we need to maximize our efforts to reach lost
souls.”

Doug Batchelor, Amazing Facts
President/Speaker, commented, “This uniting of
ministries will expand our operations and forge an
impressive team of Christian managers who bring their
unique talents and reputation for visionary leadership
to the new organization. Our union will surely lead to
greater effectiveness and economy in spreading the
gospel to the world. We’re really excited about this
comprehensive opportunity to communicate the good news
of Jesus Christ.”

*******************

Danny Shelton comments,
“Through God’s miraculous blessing He has allowed me to
witness 23 years of the unfolding of the vision for
3ABN.  I truly believe that this historic
partnership with Amazing Facts is a continuation of the
vision and can only say with calm assurance, God is
leading.”

Doug Batchelor states, “In
1844  Samuel Morse sent the first  electronic
message. Quoting from Numbers 23:23  ‘What hath God
wrought!’  Media has now become for the
proclamation of the Gospel what the printing press was
500 years ago.   The union of these two
dynamic  ministries represents a miraculous
milestone and opportunity to fulfill the great
commission.  It's hard to describe the staggering
potential!    I simply stand in awesome
wonder declaring. ‘What hath God wrought!’  As 3ABN
and Amazing Facts join hands and hearts, wonderful
things can happen to expand Jesus’ Kingdom.”

“The
secret of our success in the work of God will be found
in the harmonious working of our people. There must be
concentrated action. Every member of the body of Christ
must act his part in the cause of God, according to the
ability that God has given him. We must press together
against obstructions and difficulties, shoulder to
shoulder, heart to heart.--Review and Herald, Dec. 2,
1890.”

“’Press together; press together,’ are the
words of our divine Instructor. Unity is strength;
disunion is weakness and defeat.”  {CH
517.3}

“Again and again the angel has said to me,
‘Press together, press together, be of one mind, of one
judgment,’ Christ is the leader, and you are brethren;
follow Him.--Letter 4, 1890.”  {Ev
102.1}
