In the tenth chapter of Hebrews we find these words: “…let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 7
Earlier in this study we read a Scripture that undoubtedly offended the people He was teaching, especially the Scribes and Pharisees, more than anything else He said. I would like to take another look at it at this time. It is found in John 6:53-59: Then Jesus said unto them: “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 8/10/2015
It has been a bit longer than normal since the last update and there is much to tell. As previous updates clearly recounted, the Muslim month of Ramadan ended with many thousands of people having become followers of Jesus, the true Messiah. Among multitudes of Muslim people today there is a great craving to know the real truth. In the […]
THE BLOOD OF JESUS, Part 4
(Note: All Scriptures are in the New King James Version unless indicated differently) We have come to the place in this study where we will look at how the symbolism of the sacrificial system in the Old Testament is fulfilled in the New Testament in the blood of Jesus. The Old Testament sacrificial system that God set up with the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 7/27/2015
Then the word of God spread, and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith. (Acts 6:7 NKJV) This very thing has been happening in the Middle East today! In the Book of the Acts, we find the early rains of the Holy Spirit being poured out […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 7/20/2015
The Muslim day of Ramadan ended Friday, the 17th of July this year. I received a phone call from Pastor R***** with glowing reports from the different areas that the House Of Blessing missionaries have been scattered during this year’s Ramadan. As regular readers of this blog already know, this time of Ramadan has been a special time of soul […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 7/11/2015
Today, as I write this update, the Islamic month of Ramadan is nearing its close for 2015 in just six more days. As I spoke with Pastor R*****, founder of the House Of Blessing ministry in the Middle East, he was very excited to tell me of the great success the HOB missionaries have been experiencing as the Spirit of […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 7/8/2015
In Mark 16:15-18 we find these words of Jesus: And He said unto them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 6/25/2015
As I look back at the updates of the last few weeks, I reread account after account of missionaries giving their lives for the sake of the Gospel. 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 […]
