The Action Report December 2009 My dear friend, Behind the soft music and peaceful scenes of Christmas a storm is brewing in the Mideast. It is a terrifying tornado of hatred directed at Israel, with Iran's president vowing to finish what Hitler couldn't. These are not mere words. There is an Islamic hope that when carnage and devastation fill the land, the mahdi will come - a false messiah who will give Islam world control. In the midst of all the madness, thousands of Muslims are meeting Jesus in life-changing experiences. It is time for the churches to wake up and shake off the shackles of materialism, laziness and lack of vision! Multitudes, multitudes are in the valley of decision and beating their breast and the bushes in search of a hope. Take Israel. There is a new tenderness and openness toward Jesus in the land. The Church must return to the Father's heart for Israel. This is a part of my teaching and a burden that never goes away. Many churches still teach replacement theology and how the Jews are no longer in the Father's plans. Other Christians go to another extreme - speaking of love for Israel but saying that Christians need not share the love of Jesus with Jews who are "already in covenant." Of course, Jewish people applaud this false belief and shy away from those like me who declare our love for Israel, but add that it is only through Jesus that one can know sins forgiven and eternal life. There is always a cost to standing up for the truth. But it is the truth that sets men free - and my team and I will be faithful to proudly display the true meaning of unconditional love as offered by our Savior and the Messiah of Israel. This message carries the anointing of the Holy Spirit, and that is how lives are changed. Keep us in your prayers and arms of support. Your gift this final month of 2009 will give us a running start into the New Year. We don't know what it holds - but we know the God who does! Blessed Christmas through the Prince of Shalom, F.E.

And one day a “world leader” will appear on the scene with the persuasion of a god and the heart of a devil. Jesus warns His children to know the Scriptures, live in obedience to the Father’s will, and stay alert to the signs of the times. They laugh no more. Now God’s description of how He will destroy the old earth and create a
new one makes perfect sense. The splitting of the atom turned many skeptics into believers.
After all, look what man himself is capable of doing with the atom and hydrogen bombs. Now
the fear is that nuclear weapons are being placed in the hands of madmen who wish to annihilate
their enemies. God has blessed man with incredible genius. We stand in awe as we watch men and women in a room full of computers and high-tech instruments guiding and landing spacecraft on distant planets. At that moment, we appear invincible. But then a mammoth tornado comes—or a terrifying hurricane—or rains that flood whole regions and never listen to our shouts to “Stop!”—or the shake that removes from under our feet any confidence or pride we carry, and leaves us numb with hardly enough breath to even utter the paralyzing word “EARTHQUAKE!”. And man is helpless in the face of it all! |
