Reaching out into the Ukraine through Samaritans Purse and LifeNets

by Pastor W. C. Hicks

Dear Friends, Brethren and Co-workers;

Greetings in the name of Jesus! Now we face the threat of war in Europe and the promised destruction of Ukraine by dictator Vladimir Putin. This war on Ukraine has been going on for more than 30 days! The dictator Putin continues his crimes!

It's time to fast and pray for God's intervention and Christ's soon return! However, rather than reel from all the news of late perhaps you would like to support a project or two for the Ukraine. You can support through this ministry and earmark your offerings accordingly or fell free to support them directly. We are working through both Samaritan's Purse and plan to fund LifeNets Ukrainian effort as well. We have sent funds from some of you already to work in Ukraine! I know and respect Victor Kubik, himself of Ukrainian heritage, and who worked with the same groups I did in the Ukraine a few years ago. Please help Ukraine while we still can! Thank you to all of you that already who have given!

I need to apologize for my slowness in getting our studies in the gospel of John online but I hope you understand our limitations with all that is going on at present.

In this book of John we have studied issues that occurred before the universe and time began. In the beginning was the Word… and the word was with God… and the Word was God. God created everything through this WORD! All the work of creation was accomplished by Him. Then He rested from all His work on the Seventh Day of creation. He entered into his ETERNAL rest back then. He completed the physical creation and rested on the Seventh solar day (YOM Heb.) and hallowed it. But Genesis does NOT record that the “evening and morning” were the Seventh Day for God… because he entered into His eternal rest from making all the things that He created way back then. Yet, the WORD, the one of a kind Son of GOD that made all things, became flesh and came to do the WORK that only He could do to give US rest. Today He will show us that although HE and the Father have rested from creating, they sustain and meet the needs of what they have created EVERY DAY. God has done his most marvelous work of redemption during his rest from creation. He teaches us that all we need to do to enter into His rest is to come to Jesus. Even when Jesus was resting, going from one place to another, He took the time to bring people rest from their pain, hunger, disease, and most of all their sin!

3 - New John Studies added below!

Here is some more of our gospel of John Study online as well. I hope to add some more soon! Thank You for your patience.

Finally, I thank God the Father for sending His son to be the ONLY sacrifice that saves. I thank the Lord Jesus for His patience in submitting willingly to the heavenly Father’s decision on when all this mess, brought about by our sin, will finally come to an abrupt and final end! Until then, I pray for the blessing of God’s Holy Spirit to be the faithful witnesses He demands from these difficult times. I know our ONLY SURE HOPE rests in out Almighty God.

I remain yours because HE LIVES!

The Paradigm - Jonathan Cahn

"Is it possible that an ancient blueprint holds the secret behind the events of our times? Could this blueprint lie behind the rise and fall of leaders and governments?

Could events that took place nearly 3,000 years ago now be determining the course of our world and with it the course of our lives?

Prepare to be stunned, shocked, illuminated, and amazed. Jonathan Cahn, who caused an international stir with his New York Times best-selling book The Harbinger, will take you from the ancient Middle East to the news of the modern world on a journey you will never forget. As you open up The Paradigm, his most explosive book yet, you may never see your world the same way again.

Have You ever wondered about The United States and Great Britain in Prophecy?

Here is a really good study that is based upon research done in the 1800's that many consider relevant in determining just who we are and perhaps why we have been so successful in recent centuries. Can you believe that The U.S. and Brittan could be fulfillment of biblical prophesy? Today, many in politics say "Make America Great Agian" but what if, we never made ourselves great to begin with... God did! The following study is availible online free of charge from the United Church of God and is well worth reading. If you would like to read the original study, Judah's Scepter and Joseph's Birthright, from protestants in the 1800's I included access to that study as well on Amazon.com for a fee.

Can Christian Education Slow the Paganization of America?

I think you would like to listen to this from Dr. AL Mohler …

How did our world get into such a mess? I think that a message I heard from Dr. Al Mohler recently should help any of us get our bearings! If YOU are concerned about the slide in ethics and progress toward paganism in your culture, You will want to listen to this thought provoking message given at Providence Academy in Johnson City , TN in November, where some of my grandchildren attend. I am just thankful to be able to share the link for what I heard there..."

Helping Christians in India

in Their Recent Covid Wave

The Covid 19 plague

A pastor's request to you!

Recently we received this request for help from India. Thnak you to those that have already contributed! Although some have received some help already, the second wave is proving to be a real challenge. CAN YOU and YOUR CHURCH help us help them?

Please read the message below from a pastor willing to help us help our brethren in India. We will pass any offering through such pastors in India. Please read below;

"Some of the pastors work as part-time jobs in the agriculture fields or some shops/

establishments. Last year during the CORONA VIRUS lockdown period our pastors have financially suffered very much due to lack of jobs/work. Again this year the second wave of COVID-19 is back. This year it is more dangerous and causing serious health and financial problems. Some states have already declared another LOCK-DOWN. Churches are closed in a number of states in India. I appeal to our church leaders/and members of our Churches world-wide to extend and pray for our poor pastors in India, who are tirelessly working to preach the gospel of Christ to millions of unsaved people. Many of the pastors travel by foot to reach the remote villages. The pastors do not even have bicycles. We request our brothers and sisters to sponsor a few bicycles /motor cycles for our pastors. During the LOCK-DOWN period there is no public transport buses or other means of transport. If we could just provide better means of travel and communication (mobile phones) our younger generation of pastors can work more efficiently and do more church planting in new areas. There is a lot of room for development of new congregations in India. In view of the second wave of COVID-19, which has affected India severely with the number of positive cases now exceeding four hundred thousand, we are confined to our homes due to fear of losing our lives. In order to help our poor pastors during this critical situation, we want to pay an additional one month subsidy to our sixty pastors this month. We need at least 2000 USD this month or you can help us purchase some bicycles."

Please send your offering to;

PLEASE earmark your offerings for INDIA! Anything will help and we will forward it to them as soon as possible!

Are YOU ready to follow Jesus! We want to help!

A Couple Books I want to recommend...

Dark Agenda - David Horowitz

"New York Times best-selling author David Horowitz exposes not only the progressive war against Christianity but also a war against America and its founding principles - which are Christian in their origin. Dark Agenda is about an embattled religion, but, most of all, it is about our imperiled nation. Tackling a broad range of issues from prayer in the schools to the globalist mindset, Horowitz traces the anti-Christian movement to its roots in communism. When the communist empire fell, progressives did not want to give up their utopian anti-God illusions, so instead they merely changed the name of their dream. Instead of “communism,” progressives have re-branded their movement as “social justice.” Dark Agenda shows how progressives are prepared to use any means necessary to stifle their opponents who support the concepts of religious liberty that America was founded on and how the battle to destroy Christianity is really the battle to destroy America."

James A LIVING Faith - Our world is in crisis. It is a real trial today just watching the news but the little book of James teaches us to view these trials in a very different way. The book James is a reflection upon a series of “tests” that we all face as believers that will show us that if our faith is alive or NOT! How are YOU doing with the trials of your faith today?
