Notice these words Jesus said to His disciples, including all of us who are His followers today: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Matthew 16:33 There is a growing number of people everywhere realizing that […]
PSALM 2 “UNCENSORED” 8/27/2022
Possibly the most famous question ever asked of Jesus was voiced by Pontus Pilate when he demanded to know if Jesus was really a king. Jesus’ response was: “…for this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…8/21/2022…”And They Spoke the Word of God with Boldness”
I would like to begin today’s update with a passage of Scripture from Acts 4. 29 “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, 30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus”, […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….8/13/2022….”Who Holds Your Tomorrow?”
There isn’t one of us who has knowledge of what our tomorrow will bring—unless of course, God gives us special knowledge. As believers, we are thankful at the end of every day for another day that has passed and we are now one day closer to Jesus’ return for His own. A personal practice of mine is to thank the […]
Rapture Typology in Acts Nine
Dramatic Escape From Damascus (Word for word reprint of article written for UNSEALED website, Author: Jeff) Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. (Romans 11:25 ESV) The mystery of Christ […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….8/2/2022….”Whether I Live or Die…”
I thought of a couple passages of Scripture as I prepared to write this short update. The first is found in Psalm 27: The LORD is my light and my salvation: Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…7/27/2022…”GOD IS GOOD!”
As we come to the end of July, 2022, the situation for inhabitants of northern Syria—especially the refugees, is becoming increasingly difficult again. Turkey’s Erdogan has pushed for several years to establish and enforce a 30 km “buffer zone” just below Turkey’s border with Syria. Over the past 11 years of the Syrian civil war, Turkey has often sent military […]
SPECIAL MIDEAST UPDATE…7/12/2022
This morning’s update is a very short one to let readers know of a couple new developments on the front lines with the House of Blessing missionaries. As you know, the emphasis on evangelism during the observance of the Muslim Eid al-Adha was very successful this year again. The miracle of the blind man being being opened before the eyes of […]
THE ‘PREEMINENCE’ of JESUS CHRIST…..Colossians 1:12-23
Who is Jesus Christ? Why is it that after 2,000 years of history having passed, He is still the central figure of all history? Was He merely a prophet as some claim? Was He just a historical influential philosopher, one of many? Or was He one among the many religious leaders we find listed in our history books? Was He […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…7/3/2022….”How Amazing is our GOD!”
Considering the size of the series of miracles in the last few weeks, including today’s addition, this update will be rather short. The reason for the brevity of today’s update is because the Muslim, Eid al-Adha, a time of special evangelism by the House of Blessing missionaries is only days away and I’d like you to know what has happened […]
