Bakht Singh

Bakht Singh Chabra (1903 - 2000). Indian evangelist, church planter, and Bible teacher born in Joiya, Punjab (now Pakistan), to a devout Sikh family. Educated at Punjab University, he studied agricultural engineering in England (1926-1928) and Canada (1929-1932), embracing a Western lifestyle, including smoking and drinking, while rejecting his Sikh roots by shaving his hair. Initially hostile to Christianity—once tearing a Bible apart—he converted in 1929 in Winnipeg after reading the New Testament, influenced by Christian friends John and Edith Hayward. Returning to India in 1933, he began preaching as an Anglican evangelist, later becoming independent, sparking the 1937 Martinpur revival, a pivotal movement in Indian Christianity. In 1941, after a night of prayer in Chennai, he founded Hebron Ministries, establishing over 10,000 indigenous churches modeled on New Testament principles across India and South Asia. Singh authored books like How I Got Joy Unspeakable and Full of Glory and held annual “Holy Convocations” in Madras, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Kalimpong, drawing thousands. Married to Rama Bai at age 12 in 1915, little is recorded of their personal life. His contextualized gospel, blending Indian spirituality with biblical truth, earned him the title “Elijah of the 21st Century” in Indian Christendom. Singh’s words, “I have never asked any man for anything, but the Lord is richly supplying all my needs,” reflect his faith-driven ministry. Despite Parkinson’s disease in his final decade, his legacy endures through Hebron’s global network and writings, praised by figures like Ravi Zacharias.

Sermon Transcription
This cassette contains the message on Lal's table by the Lal's servant, Brother Baksh Singh, during the 1972 All India Holy Convocation held at Ibrahim Hyderabad on 12th November 1972. The message translated into Telugu language by the Lal's servant, Brother B. Tumuti, and in Hindi by Brother Benji Samuel of Bilaspur. We shall eat this bread and drink this cup of water unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. Also on 29th, either eaten and drink as unworthily, eaten and drink as damnation, we shall not discerning the Lord's body. So before we pass you the bread and cup, we have to give you very very solemn warning. Before we pass you the bread and cup, we have to give you very very solemn warning. For I have received of the Lord, also I deliver unto you. It is a testimony which has been ordained by the Lord Jesus himself. It is not a custom or ritual ordained by any man. But for the apostle received directly from the Lord, he hath conveyed it to us. He hath conveyed it to us. And if we take part unworthily, scripture says, we will be guilty for the Lord, and also we are doing damnation. And secondly, we are coming under condemnation. We are very solemn words. And that's why we have to very lovingly warn you before we bring you the bread and cup. Will you kindly listen attentively to these few words before we bring you the cup. Will you kindly listen attentively to these few words before we bring you the bread and cup. First of all, let us see who is worthy to take part. 1 Corinthians 10, verse 16. The cup of blessing which we bless, is in order of the communion of the blood of Christ. The blood which we break, is in order of the communion of the body of Christ. The cup of blessing which we bless, is in order of the communion of the blood of Christ. The blood which we break, is in order of the communion of the body of Christ. The cup of blessing which we bless, is in order of the communion of the blood of Christ. The blood which we break, is in order of the communion of the body of Christ. If you have noticed, in the 11th chapter, the bread comes first, then comes the cup. If you have noticed, in the 11th chapter, the bread comes first, then comes the cup. Now in the 10th chapter, the apostle speaks of the cup first, and then he speaks of the bread. Because it is not a mistake here. It is for a purpose, the Holy Spirit has asked the apostle to mention these things. So before any one of us can become a member of the body of Christ, your sins must be forgiven and washed by the blood. Because only those who are the living members of the body of Lord Jesus Christ can take part in the cup. Only by confessing our sins or repenting of them, we do not become living members of the body of Christ. Only by confessing our sins or repenting of them, we do not become living members of the body of Lord Jesus Christ. Every day, every week, every Sunday, every other day, there are many people who confess their sins every day, but they have no peace, they have no change in their life, they have no joy in their heart. See, apart from all we have to believe, the Lord Jesus Christ did die in my stead for my sins. And we thank Him for dying for us. Now, every sin we commit leaves a guilty stain in our conscience. By confession, by thoughts, or by words, or by deeds, we find every sin we commit small or great, leaves a very deep mark in the conscience like a tape recorder. And these guilty stains in our conscience will not be removed by tears, or by fasting, or by charity, or by means. Only by our Lord, by His blood, only by our Lord, by His blood, these guilty stains will be removed. I'll give you 9 chapters. Verse 14 9-14 How much more shall the blood of Christ with the eternal spirit offer Himself to the Lord for your conscience? Same way, 4th chapter Last part The blood of Jesus Christ tells us more sins. Book of Revelation Chapter 1 Verse 5 Last part Unto Him the Lord asked and washed us our sins on blood. Has washed us from our sins. Now you find so clearly only by the touch of blood our guilty stains and our guilty conscience can be washed away. And then only our spirits become clean and pure. And only then the life of Lord Jesus Christ can be poured into our cleansed spirit. Because our conscience is a part of spirit. And that's why the Apostle in 1 Corinthians chapter 16 first mentions the cup. And that's why the Apostle in 1 Corinthians chapter 16 first mentions the cup. And that's why the Apostle in 1 Corinthians chapter 16 first mentions the cup. The bread which we break is not the communion of the body of Christ. The bread which we break is not the communion of the body of Christ. Only when our sins are forgiven and washed away then we become living members of the body of Lord Jesus Christ. Because life will begin to flow into us constantly. And those or those in whom life is flowing now they cannot any longer partake of devil's table. And they cannot partake of devil's table. He first mentions 10 chapters. He cannot drink the cup of the Lord and cup of devil. He cannot be partakers of the lost table and of the table of devil. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and cup of devil. Now when we take part now in lost table in the bottom cup now we testify very carefully the Lord Jesus Christ has become our meat and our drink. By coming into us he is our bed of life also he is our water of life. And in him we are satisfied. And no longer we have desire for anything of this world wicked world worldly pleasure or worldly enjoyment. For example there are many people here for holy convocation there will matter what kind of food is given over here. They are given the very best quantity of upma and pongal and so on. Any quantity they are never satisfied in the outside. Their stomach will be full of rats. Unless they go to some hotel nearby they will not be satisfied. They are more satisfied with filthy dirty hotel food than God's house food. They don't know with dirty hands they prepare the food also in hotel. And the same gobble used by so many people again and And the whole table will be full of people. They will satisfied dirty food. Some go secretly some go openly. Some go openly some go widely. Some go for their needs some go for their wife's needs. They are never satisfied with any kind of food and of any quality. They have a disease but as believer they take part of table. To be honest associate they no longer hunger for devil table. Take away hunger appetite for worldly books worldly music worldly fashion worldly clothes. Are you found out for filthy dirty books? Are you openly or secretly? If so you can't take part. If so can't take part. I have found many people have radio in their home. And we go out everywhere with you If that's your condition, maybe we would warn you, don't take birth, please. I will take part in the bread and the cup. I will take part in the bread and the cup. Three thirty-five by one bread, one family. No more rich and poor, high and low. North and South India. Ready or Quenty. Ready or Quenty. They are very very gifted in telling stories to borrow money. They will save their wealth, they will save their money. They have one month gone, one year gone, seven years gone. You are in debt to take part. They will apologize and make a promise. If you will me, you will ask them in case room. Other people, they miss you, they will borrow money. Shall we keep apart one tenth? When they are troubled, they will spend it. To pay house rent, to pay meat bill, to pay mutton bill. We will pay double next month. It is like a tradition. You are a robber. You are a thief. You are robbing God. You have no right on God's portion. Just some spend their time upon the poor friend's addition. Even that is a robbery. God's portion is God's house. Going by Malachi chapter 3, Malachi 3 and 10.
