This post is a continuation of updates having to do with an underground Christian ministry to Muslims. The emphasis has been to show those who serve a prophet and god that advocates murdering infidels because they will not convert to Islam. Bibles are given free of charge and taken over the border around Israel, lately the emphasis being on Syria which is on the edge of total collapse. The founder of this ministry was nearly beaten to death with clubs and stoned by Hezbollah, but is still sharing the love of God. This is a genuine ministry of love to people who have been taught to hate and kill. God on the other hand is a God of love, compassion, and forgiveness. This is the message of this article.
JERUSALEM UPDATE-May 18, 2013
I got a call a few days ago from R*, the founder of House Of Blessing. At the time of his call, he himself was still in a wheelchair and not able to move much yet. But, he said that he was content that he was fulfilling exactly what God wanted out of him for the time being. He said […]
THE WORLD WAS NOT WORTHY OF THEM…
This post points out that much of the professing Church is soft, out of touch with Christ’s reality, and has gods of materialism, sports, and a feel-good Christianity. God does not accept it as He requires us to have a genuine relationship with Him that is based on His truth, holiness as He sees it, and a life lived that touches the world with His love. We, for the most part, have forgotten what the fear of God is all about–and until we find it again, are going to fail in fulfilling His commission He gave us. Time has run out and we’d better get with His program–not ours. His definition of “success” is not the one we use. We must see the difference.
JERUSALEM UPDATE, May 4, 2013
Greetings to all of you: This is a very quick update as of a phone call I just received this morning directly from Syria. I am out of town for the weekend to welcome another grandchild into the world but brought my laptop with me. Those of you who are on my e-mail list know of the continuing work done […]
Short Jerusalem Update–April 30, 2013
Greetings All: Just a quick update on H.O.B. and R* who is literally sacrificing his life for the Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth. R* has serious injuries from the beating and stoning recently. He appears to have received substantial injuries to his nervous system, as well as other injuries that are not being relieved yet. He is still in Syria staying […]
JERUSALEM UPDATE–April 12, 2013
I just got a call this morning from our friend R*, pastor and founder of House Of Blessing, Jerusalem, Israel. The first thing he had to tell me was thank you for the funds that were provided within the last couple weeks. I want to add a special thank you to my own church home, Desert Song Community Church which […]
ARE YOU HIS “HOUSE”?
The book of Hebrews is avoided by more readers of the New Testament than most books, other than possibly the Book of Revelation. Many of the concepts reach back into the Old Testament, in order to tie the old sacrificial system together with the new. I was doing some reading in Hebrews however and was struck by a few things […]
Special request and anonymous offer
Just a short announcement for those that may be interested. Because of the great need for finances for H.O.B. in Jerusalem for the purchase of Bibles already printed into Arabic and ready for pick-up and delivery, an anonymous person has offered to match all funds that come in by the end of April up to $10,000. Any funds coming in […]
LOVE or LOVE?
Over the last few articles I have written quite a number of things that would likely be in the “gloom and doom” category–at least for some readers. I will continue with more subjects that deal with what we are facing this year, and the years coming–if the LORD doesn’t call us home first; many things happening within this present year […]
JERUSALEM UPDATE, March 20, 2013
I have found myself a bit brain-dead the last few days and so didn’t attempt to do any writing. I got a call this morning however that had such a tremendous effect on me, I decided I at least need to get an update out on the missionary work of House Of Blessing, and make sure it is today before […]
