Emergency alert: prayer for Christians in Orissa, India
Dear prayer warriors,
Let's pray for the persecuted Christians of Orissa, India.
Psalm 119 : 86
All your commands are trustworthy; help me, for men persecute me without cause. They almost wiped me from the earth, but I have not forsaken your precepts.
We received this letter from a pastor in India. He writes:
We have never seen anything like this.
We knew that Orissa was the most resistant and hostile State in India as far as the Gospel is concerned. And we brushed off the continuous threats and harassment we faced as we went about His work. But none of our staff imagined that they would see this kind of carnage.... And it seems to be totally under the radar of the Western Media.... Let me explain.... A militant Hindu priest and 4 of his attendants, who were zealously going around the villages of Orissa and 'reconverting' people back to Hinduism, were gunned down by unknown assailants in Central Orissa last weekend. Immediately the Christians were blamed. The cry rose up...'Kill the Christians!' And the horror began....
In the past 4 days, we have first hand witness to hundreds of churches being blown up or burned and many, many dozens of Christian tribals have been slaughtered. For no other reason than they bear the name of Christ. Night and day I have been in touch with our Good News India Directors spread across 14 Dream Centers in Orissa... they are right in the middle of all this chaos. In Tihidi, just after the police came to offer protection, a group of 70 blood-thirsty militants came to kill our staff and destroy the home. They were not allowed to get in, but they did a lot of damage to our Dream Centre by throwing rocks and bricks and smashing our gate, etc. They have promised to come back and 'finish the job.' Our kids and staff are locked inside and have stayed that way with doors and windows shut for the past 3 days. It has been a time of desperately calling on the Lord in prayer. More police have come to offer protection. In Kalahandi, the police and some local sympathizers got to our dream centre and gave our staff and kids about 3 minutes notice to vacate. No one had time to even grab a change of clothes or any personal belonging. As they fled, the blood thirsty mob came to kill everyone in the building. We would have had a mass funeral there, but for His grace. In Phulbani, the mob came looking for Christian homes and missions. The local Hindu people, our neighbors turned them away by saying that there were no Christians in this area. So they left. We had favor.
The same thing happened in Balasore. All our dream centres are under lock down with the kids and staff huddled inside and police outside. The fanatics are circling outside waiting for a chance to kill. Others were not so fortunate. In a nearby Catholic orphanage, the mob allowed the kids to leave and locked up a Priest and a computer teacher in a house and burned them to death. Many believers have been killed and hacked into pieces and left on the road.... even women and children. At another orphanage run by another organization, when this began, the Director and his wife jumped on their motorbike and simply fled, leaving all the children and staff behind. Every one of our GNI directors that I have spoken to said: 'We stay with our kids.... we live together or die together, but we will never abandon what God has called us to do.'
More than 5000 Christian families have had their homes burned or destroyed. They have fled into the jungles and are living in great fear waiting for the authorities to bring about peace. But so far, no peace is foreseen. This will continue for another 10 days..... supposedly the 14 day mourning period for the slain Hindu priest. Many more Christians will die and their houses destroyed. Many more churches will be mashed down. The Federal government is trying to restore order and perhaps things will calm down. We ask for your prayers. Only the Hand of God can calm this storm. None of us know the meaning of persecution. But now our kids and staff know what that means. So many of our kids coming from Hindu backgrounds are confused and totally bewildered at what is happening around them. So many of their guardians have fled into the jungles and are unable to come and get them during these trying times. Through all this, I am more determined than ever to continue with our goal: the transformation of a community by transforming its children. Orissa will be saved... that is our heart's cry. If we can take these thousands of throw away children and help them to become disciples of Jesus, they will be transforming an entire region. It is a long term goal, but it is strategic thinking in terms of the Great Commission.
What can you do? First, please uphold all this in fervent prayer. Second, pass this e-mail on to as many friends as you can. We must get the word out and increase our prayer base for this is spiritual warfare at its most basic meaning. We are literally fighting the devil in order to live for His Kingdom. The next 10 days are crucial. We pray for peace and calm to pervade across Orissa. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Please pass it on and help us to get as many people to partner with us on this cutting edge effort to fulfill His mandate: Go and make disciples of all nations....
Blessings!
Guy and Ilke

Stay on fire for Jesus
- no matter what!

I am living next door with a terroirst.

I am living with a terrorist!

The terrorist used my electricity, by drilling hole into my wall, use my wire, and use my electricity to run a machine, I saw, water running out from the drainage day and night from his house. And the sound of a machine can be heard and heat can be felt upstair...I am afraid he is running a water cooled, nuclear reacktor...or an x-ray machine, there....or making illegal drug...or poison...

Today I switch off the main switch upstairs, the meter slow down tremendously. In fact, nothing was running up there, no fan, nothing, but the meter runs like crazy. Someone used our electricity without my knowledge for the past few years and I paid the bills.

May God save these terrorists! May God forgive them....they thought they are clever in wickedness...

Life BPC is living with FEBC, both of them are terrorists?

The Book of Colossians with the VPP

1Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

2To the holy and faithful brothers in Christ at Colosse:
Grace and peace to you from God our Father.

Grace and peace to us, I pray, I pray, I pray!

For every one of us who are suffering because of VPP.

3 most important things for all the believers,

Calvin said, humility, humility, humility?

But there is a brother, he said, to be kind, to be kind, to be kind.

The theologians said "PERFECT, PERFECT, PERFECT, PERFECT, ...PREFECT, PREFECT, PREFECT...PRECEPT PRECEPT PRECEPT...ZZZZZZ"

to be continued....

The Name of God

The theologians are teaching the VPP, and attacking the Word of God, and they are attacking the CUV, they had no fear of God. And they had hurt the body of Christ. They are like the enemy of Christ. They had no regard for elders and seniors.

I wanted them to know VPP is wrong, even the name of the God can refute VPP, and to refute VPP, they must study the name "Jehovah" and "Jahweh"

KJV translated the name of God, into "LORD", changing the name of God, this is automatically accepted by them. It is right or wrong? It is a perfect preservation or not? Jot and titles, translating the name of God into "LORD"?

Some Bible scholars write the name of God "Yahweh", some write "LORD GOD", some write "Jehovah". Which is the correct one? Since the theologians are teaching the VPP, since they had the perfect underlying text, they just had the answer! Let tell us what they know about the name "Jehovah" or "Jahweh"?

Some Hebrew MSS only had this JHWH,(Tetragrammaton).

Adding vowels to the Name of the Lord is an insult to some Jews.

And the theologians are still promoting the preservation to the jots and titles. What happened? I hope the theologians can write a thesis about "the preservation of the name of God in TR." I wanted to read his view about the preservation of the name of God in his perfect TR. The Israelites just called Jehovah, Adonai. How about them? Are they wrong? No. So Why you the theologians attacking those Chinese Christians who are upholding the name of God?

"Jehovah" was introduced in 1520 by Galatinus, but it was contested by Le Mercier.
Mesoratic favor "Jehovah."

Some scholars said that: We are quite in ignorance of its correct pronunciation.

"Jehovah" or "Jahweh" ? Many Israelites said "Adonai"

Let see what the theologians said about this?

Shalom_Shalom.

Jahweh_Sabaot_Emanu

Are the theologians cleverer than the Jew?

The Theologians are attacking the Bible.

There is another kind of murmur! Murmur about the Chinese Bible.

Murmur about the Bible?

Did I say, we must give thanks for the Bible?

The murmur that the Bible and they are saying the CUV is not perfect enough, the theologians who are teaching VPP is murmuring that the CUV is not perfect enough. And they cursed the Chinese Pastors and wanting to sack him, who do not endorse their VPP. They are worse than the Indian who oppressed the Christian preacher. Because the theologians who are attaching CUV, with VPP, is attacking the Word of God. The theologians are putting their foot in their mouths. I said further, they are cutting their own throat with their own words.

The Contemporary Song from Israel

There is a singer from Israel named Paul, who used contemporary songs to worship
Jahweh. He is a very good singer.

The classical songs are good for the mind, contemporary songs are good for feeling toward God.

We needed both in different places.

Even the Israelites used contemporary songs these days.

When I am sad and down, I will praise the Lord in contemporary songs.

Four angels in Euphrates

Revelation 9:13-16

13The sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice coming from the horns[b] of the golden altar that is before God. 14It said to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates." 15And the four angels who had been kept ready for this very hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind. 16The number of the mounted troops was two hundred million. I heard their number.

These 4 angels must be guarded and bound now, before the end time.

Troops must be sent to control the rivers.

The Septuagint and Mesoratic Text

The Septuagint was held with great respect in ancient times; Philo and Josephus ascribed divine inspiration to its authors. Besides the Old Latin versions, the LXX is also the basis for the Slavonic, Syro-Hexaplar (but not the Peshitta), Old Armenian, Old Georgian and Coptic versions of the Old Testament. Of significance for all Christians and for Bible scholars, the LXX is quoted by the Christian New Testament and by the Apostolic Fathers. While Jews have not used the LXX in worship or religious study since the second century AD, recent scholarship has brought renewed interest in it in Judaic Studies. Some of the Dead Sea scrolls attest to Hebrew texts other than those on which the Masoretic Text was based; in many cases, these newly found texts accord with the LXX version. The oldest surviving codices of LXX (Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus) date to the fourth century AD.

The differences between the LXX and the MT thus fall into four categories.

Different Hebrew sources for the MT and the LXX. Evidence of this can be found throughout the Old Testament. Most obvious are major differences in Jeremiah and Job, where the LXX is much shorter and chapters appear in different order than in the MT, and Esther where almost one third of the verses in the LXX text have no parallel in the MT. A more subtle example may be found in Isaiah 36.11; the meaning ultimately remains the same, but the choice of words evidences a different text. The MT reads "...al tedaber yehudit be-'ozne ha`am al ha-homa" [speak not the Judean language in the ears of (or — which can be heard by) the people on the wall]. The same verse in the LXX reads according to the translation of Brenton "and speak not to us in the Jewish tongue: and wherefore speakest thou in the ears of the men on the wall." The MT reads "people" where the LXX reads "men". This difference is very minor and does not affect the meaning of the verse. Scholars at one time had used discrepancies such as this to claim that the LXX was a poor translation of the Hebrew original. With the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, variant Hebrew texts of the Bible were found. In fact this verse is found in Qumran (1QIsaa) where the Hebrew word "haanashim" (the men) is found in place of "haam" (the people). This discovery, and others like it, showed that even seemingly minor differences of translation could be the result of variant Hebrew source texts.

Differences in interpretation stemming from the same Hebrew text. A good example is Genesis 4.7 shown above.

Differences as a result of idiomatic translation issues (i.e. a Hebrew idiom may not easily translate into Greek, thus some difference is intentionally or unintentionally imparted). For example, in Psalm 47:10 the MT reads "The shields of the earth belong to God". The LXX reads "To God are the mighty ones of the earth." The metaphor "shields" would not have made much sense to a Greek speaker; thus the words "mighty ones" are substituted in order to retain the original meaning.
Transmission changes in Hebrew or Greek (Diverging revisionary/recensional changes and copyist errors)

Settled in God

There are many problems which are distracting,

Focus to the Lord Jehovah

Cast the burden to the Lord,

We must faithfully to do the required right things,

The rest and the results I put into the hands of God.

Jehovah God is One

There is one God, seek Him,

God said, "I AM WHO I AM"

Then, who is God,

The Israelites said,

Jehovah is God, Jehovah is one.

God of Israel, is our God,

Who is this Jehovah?

I said to the theologian,

hear this,

Jehovah God the Father is our Almighty God,
Jehovah God the Savior is our Lord the Savior,
Jehovah God the Spirit is our Comforter.

The truth is

Three is One, one is Three.
Three in One, One in Three.

Isaiah said, Holy, Holy, Holy,
Lord God Almighty,

Let us, seek Him, and worship Him.

Jehovah is my God.

Jehovah is one and only God.

Amen.

Jehovah is our helper.

Shine His countenance to us,
Be Gracious to us.

The Bitter Herb and a cup of suger

I believe a cup of bitter herbs is to mix with sugar than this will make the bitter herbs taste good for drinking.

You must stir the sugar with the bitter herds with the spoon in the cup.

If you do not stir the sugar, the sugar will shink down the cup, and the herb is too bitter for drinking. You must mix them together.

God has mixed the truth with love. Love is like sugar. Mix with the truth. Then the truth tasted good. And we take the truth mixed with love.

Preach the truth in love!

Ephesians 4:15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

The theologians who are teaching VPP, are like some doctors, forget to stir the cup of herbs, forget to mix the sugar and the herb. So their theology is full of bitterness, hard to take.

Theologians are teaching "bitterness" in the Bible College, and they do not teach "love."

They do not love their fellow Christian, how they can love the unseen God?

The Chinese say, "Bitter herb is good for health."

"Good teaching is hard for listening."

I say:

Truth without love is not the truth at all! Verbal Plenary Preservation without love is a false teaching.
