In the last three years that I have been writing these updates, there have been approximately 700 House of Blessing missionaries that have been martyred. Just days ago, nine of Mafidah’s widows […]
GOD’S MYSTERY, The Church, Part 6, “The Apostate Church”
I cannot even imagine how many articles and books have been written on this subject. Until the Lord calls His remnant of true believers home, there will be more. This is just one of them. The question has been asked many times: “Would the early church recognize the Church today?” I guess you would have to ask, “Which Church?” In […]

In Matthew 24:9: we find Jesus predicting things to come for the Church Age: Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.

Richard Wurmbrand, founder of the “Voice of the Martyrs”, after having spent fourteen years in a Communist prison in Romania, had this to say, “A man really believes not what he recites in his creed, but only the things he is ready to die for.

MIDEAST UPDATE, 5/11/2015
Today there are numerous organizations claiming to be representatives of Jesus Christ, yet not all truly live up to the standards of the “Cross”!

All claim to be Christ’s ambassadors on Earth but not all really live up to the standards of […]
