Dear Friends at Concern International, Inc.
CONGRATULATIONS!
"HEAVEN ... How To Get There." PSALM 73: 25.
Are highlights in our daily public testimonies in Jerusalem; "To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you." I Pet. 1: 4, PSALM 73: 25.
'The poor saints which are at Jerusalem.' RO. 15: 26; is not only a sad story of the long past; also now new believers, won for our Saviour in our ministry are living as during the days of Acts ... in poverty because we have mostly you and a few alone other 'cheerful givers', 2 COR. 9: 7, from our foreign faith friends, encouraging us that we may be able to share our food with them.
Our Messiah Saviour was also born on earth in a very poor stable and owned nothing until He died for our offenses, buried in a tomb which neither belonged to Him and resurrected for our justification as so also we live actually by faith in Him at Jerusalem and loudly testify on Him only by faith daily to our own people: no wonder most people here see in us as living in the long past epochs, 'For we walk by faith, not by sight', 2 COR. 5. 7; as NOTHING we shall take with us of this hurting world (Revelation 18; 4. isaiah 52; 11) so also we do not own nothing but our Saviour in our lives.
Very often people here tell me that they see in our testimony as some revelation from the ancient past or closely from the days of the death and glorious resurrection of our Saviour; and His first disciples' epochs, ACTS, openness, kindness and behaviors; poor way of living but openhearted to all.
In the beginning of our testimonies in Jerusalem I often dwelt in caves and caverns which still abounded at that time; but nowadays greatly improved for becoming "the great city where also our Lord was crucified". REVELATION 11: 19. And thenceforth and even nowadays me your servant in Him walk throughout the whole city among its nowadays inhabitants loudly urging them: Repentance to every people and acceptance of our Saviour in their lives.
We are locally in great financial debts in our Jerusalem faith evangelistic ministries as we should use electricity and water supplies; both very expensive in this country, and even a lot of many hard repairs and maintenanance of our meeting places: that a lot of them I do alone as possible, that our faith ministries may not be of any burden to our faith foreign friends ... and just often cloth in sackcloth and so testify in this great city to our own people on our Messiah Saviour; always rejoicing of new souls receiving, accepting Him, by believing in our Saviour with all their hearts, Who was born on earth in a very poor place or a stable in Bethlehem though among wealthy inhabitants ... also preached from a boat in the sea of Galilee which did not belong to Him ... sacrificed on a cross not ever intended neither for Him and buried likewise in a tumb not of His own, and resurrected from the dead in this hurting world; because it was impossible to be held by things which never ever were intended for Him.
A medical doctor in his wise statement once said to me: 'How can anyone praise God when being hungry?' "But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him." I JOHN 3: 17.
Surrounded by worldly wealthy people though poor as we are but overshadowed by most invisible heavenly angels; this past Christmas we in the land of Israel spent just as some 2010 years ago in a poor stable nearby here ... but just loudly guiding souls to Whom once said: "Give ye them to eat.", Mark 6: 37.
Most of the Creator' servants in their own epochs ... used some ways of visual similitudes to proclame their supremely invisible Master's urgent messages for every mortal being; before it may be too late for them ... as in Hosea 12: 10.
Sketching bible scenes in the streets of Jerusalem attacts people to approach me and listen to me on: 'Heaven ... How To Get There', according to the scriptures.
A light very old tripod of my own made, serves me for decades to hold fast on it the sketching boards while testifying on our Saviour publicly.
Using a very simple procedure of frequent uses in most homes I strenuously transfer these sketches and bible evangelistic verses on linen scrolls testifying to people; strengthening the testimony with the scriptures.
'Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.' Psalm 119: 105. It does not hide any truth from our path to heaven; led by our Saviour and Messiah ... the "called Son of the Highest" as recorded in Luke 1: 32:
'He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the supremely invisible Creator shall give unto Him the throne of his father David: and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.'
We experienced believers in Him stand for 'all the words of this life', because we know Whom we have believed and know that He is POWERFUL to be with us until we meet Him in heaven; just as He Himself commanded us: "Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life." Acts 5: 20.
Continuously hundreds of gospel leaflets printed in our upper room are being all taken and distributed publicly in open air services with good responses from people reading them and approaching to us for further knowledge on our Saviour and many of them have come to visit us and attend our different services; please pray for them and other new friends who have already accepted our Saviour in their lives with us.
Some of these new believers said to me: "Life is not easy anymore for us since we accepted our Saviour; though as happy as we are now in Him, our life has been changed and also old friends have left us: but such is THIS LIFE."
We experienced believers understand it because we know Whom we have believed and know that He is POWERFUL to be with us until we meet Him in heaven; though these experiences may be strange for some of our foreign faith friends and may be difficult to understand what is the meaning for new Hebrew believers to be: "Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and set down at the right hand of the throne of the HIGHEST. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds." Hebrews 12: 2, 3.
Thank you very much for your continuous prayers and all your kindness to our faith ministries in this field.
