One of the many passages of Scripture applicable to the difficulties we have during our short journey through this physical world is found in 2 Corinthians: Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort […]
AUTHOR and FINISHER…MESSIAH Part Three
As we left off in part two of this series, we were examining what the Apostle John saw in Revelation, chapter one. It is obvious that John saw the risen Messiah, but not at all as he remembered Him! He was not looking at the suffering Christ nailed to a Roman cross, and he was not seeing Jesus as He […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 12/10/2018 The Last Lap!

PASTOR R–SECOND SURGERY!
Through two phone calls received this morning from Pastor R, I have learned that the doctors that performed his first surgery had found that his blood was being poisoned somehow. His condition baffled the doctors because his blood tests showed signs of gangrene somewhere. The hospital immediately put him on strong medication, hoping that this would cure the problem. In […]
