the day and crusades by night. A medical Doctor by the name of Dr. Bobby Daniels, had traveled with me from Broken Arrow, hesalivenews@yahoo.com Ok along with a young minister who had just quit his job to go full time into the ministry. So many wonderful miracles were wrought while we were there. One evening, we had just finished bathing at the river in preparation for the evening crusade when we were brought a tiny 13-day old baby girl. She was limp and seemingly lifeless. The parents said they had heard there was a doctor here so they came desperately seeking help. Dr. Daniels took the child and told me he would stay at the clinic with her while I went to the crusade. Upon returning from the crusade I found Dr. Daniels with the small child on the table. He was leaning over her, sweat dripping from him, then he looked up at me and said, “Terry, dear God I need a hospital, I need medical equipment, I need so much more than I have here. I cannot do anything with this baby.” He further stated, “We have to have a miracle”. Dr. Daniels and I stood there a few minutes longer talking and then he soberly said, “Terry, this baby is dead”. I picked up the baby and held her before God and I told God what the Word said, then I told the devil what the Word said, then I told the baby what the Word said, I told myself and everyone there what the Word said.” In my missionary travels, I have raised many from the dead. Usually it is relatively quick, you speak to them and they get up. Some linger a little longer, but this baby, this precious
get up. I prayed and prayed for this baby for hours and hours and more hours. Finally, about 3 am in the morning, Dr. Daniels jerked my arm and said firmly, “Terry! Terry! Terry!” I stopped praying long enough to respond. He said, “You have prayed every prayer you know to pray. You have been at this for hours.” It had been about 9 hours at this point. “Now I did everything I could as a medical doctor and it just did not work. You did everything you know to do as a preacher and it just did not work.” “I am concerned about you, now put her down and we will bury her in the morning.” “Let’s go to bed.” My reply was determined and simple, “I am not going to bury this baby”. I just kept on holding that lifeless little girl before God and telling God what the Word said, telling the devil what the Word said, telling myself what the Word said and telling her what the Word said. Carrying her around that hot room, I continued to say, “Blanca, you will live and not die, you hear me, you will live and not die”. No telling how many thousands of times I have been in places in the said those words, over and United States ministering to people when various over and over again. Finally, at 6 in the morn- authorities made me quit, ing, it had been going on like when the ambulance for 12 hours now, I said to arrives and the medical the devil, “devil, you might technicians take over. as well give up because I Devil, I am the spirituam not going to.

He is a big God and nothing is impossible to Him. T.L. Osborne once told me something years ago. He said, “Terry, always stay until the devil leaves, stay until he leaves, stay until the devil leaves Terry”. Sometimes we Christians leave too soon. Some
times we just say what the Word says, pray our prayer and then run out. We just don’t stay quite long enough. Always stay until the devil leaves. God has made you the winner, always. His Word is true, He just needs you to believe it. How big is your God today? For more information contact: Terry L Mize Ministries PO Box 35044 Tulsa, OK 74153 www.terrymize.com

“Fake Hate” list, Fake News, Christians file suit Dr. D. James Kennedy
“D. James Kennedy Ministries, based at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Fort Lauderdale, has filed a federal lawsuit in Alabama against the Montgomery-based Southern Poverty Law Center for calling the ministry a hate group,” reports AL.com. “The lawsuit was filed Aug. 22 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama in Montgomery. The lawsuit alleges that the SPLC, “illegally trafficked in false and misleading descriptions of the services offered by DJKM and committed defamation against DJKM arising from the publication and distribution of false information that libels the ministry’s reputation and subjects the ministry to disgrace, ridicule, odium, and contempt in the estimation of the public,” according to a statement by the ministry. “The ministry is named for the late TV Evangelist D. James Kennedy, who was the longtime pastor of Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church and host of the nationally syndicated ‘Coral Ridge Hour’ TV program. He died in 2007. Kennedy played a role in helping form the conservative Presbyterian Church in America denomination, which organized in Birmingham in 1973 at Briarwood Presbyterian Church. “We embarked today on a journey to right a terrible wrong,” said Dr. Frank Wright, president and CEO at D. James Kennedy Ministries, in a statement released after the filing of the lawsuit. “Those who knowingly label Christian ministries as ‘hate’ groups, solely for subscribing to the historic Christian faith, are either woefully uninformed or willfully
deceitful. In the case of the Southern Poverty Law Center, our lawsuit alleges the latter.” [Dr. Chaps’ comment: The purpose of Dr. Kennedy’s ministry is to carry out his posthumous legacy, and this faithful preacher was the kindest evangelist of his era. Doctor D. James Kennedy cared deeply for the poor, and always spoke the truth from the Bible, leading millions to Christ on television and through his gospel tract ministry. The fact SPLC now defames him is abhorrent, and they should be sued for defamation, I agree.] “Many Christian organizations are fearful for their safety after CNN published a bogus ‘hate map’ concocted by the Southern Poverty Law Center. “Here are all the active hate groups where you live,” CNN’s headline declared. “The list included among others American Family Association, Family Research Council, Alliance Defending Freedom, Liberty Counsel and Pacific Justice Institute. “American Family Association blasted the CNN sto
ry, calling it a ‘sham news article that could easily incite violence and place AFA employees and supporters in harm’s way.’ “Liberty Counsel President Mat Staver demanded an immediate retraction—calling CNN’s report ‘false, defamatory and dangerous.’ “Liberty Counsel is not a hate group,” he said. “The false ‘hate’ label is very damaging to our reputation and is a safety risk to our staff. Liberty Counsel is a Christian ministry, and hates no one.” “Conservatives and Christians have good reason to be worried. “In 2012, Floyd Lee Corkins opened fire inside Family Research Council headquarters in Washington, D.C. A security guard was shot and wounded. “The domestic terrorist told police he wanted to kill as many employees as possible to intimidate opponents of same-sex marriage. Corkins brought along Chick-fil-A sandwiches, which he intended to smear on the faces of dead staffers. “So what does this have to

do with CNN’s story? “Corkins told authorities that he picked his target using the Southern Poverty Law Center’s so-called ‘hate map.’ “Family Research Council President Tony Perkins appeared on my nationally syndicated radio show Thursday to condemn CNN for using material from an organization that is ‘an attack dog of the Left.’ “They are not a neutral arbiter that is calling balls and strikes. They are on the field—playing. They are pushing an agenda, and anyone who opposes them—they slap a label on them,” Perkins told me. “They (SPLC) are inciting violence, and it needs to stop,” he added. “Liberty Counsel pointed out that had CNN done due diligence they would have discovered that the SPLC hate map has been widely discredited. “The Federal Bureau of Investigation removed the SPLC as a resource in 2014—during the Obama Administration. “And Liberty Counsel reports that in 2016 the Justice Department reprimanded SPLC’s lawyers for repeating ‘hate’ misinformation. [Dr. Chaps’ comment: SPLC is bearing false witness. They label evangelical Christians like us as hateful because we believe the Bible which teaches sin is sin. They are anti-Christian, anti-Jewish, left-wing radicals who attack for their own agenda.] Chaplain Gordon James Klingenschmitt, PhD The Pray In Jesus Name Project, PO Box 77077, Colorado Springs, CO 80970.

Answered Dying man with Prayers from Brain Tumor healed Hurricane Harvey By Isa Bajalia
The photo was taken on August 12 in the mountain region of Bukidnon. Sendo who is 37 years old was left to die in a local hospital after he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. His physician gave him about 3 to 4 months to live and his family began to prepare for funeral arrangements. God gave me the opportunity to pray for Sendo, and then after about a week he began to recover. Sendo was all smiles and full of joy as he requested to thank me in person for praying for him. It is only because of the Mercies of the Lord that he returned back to work and is fully recovered after only two months and
no surgery. Even though it is obvious that the fighting with (ISIS) has made a huge impact on the emotions of the people of Marawi City, we were still able to conduct Church worship meetings at a nearby location away from the shelling. The Christians expressed feelings of frus-

DALLAS, Sept. 1, 2017 / Christian Newswire/ -- The Thursday night Hurricane projections were dire. The eye of Harvey was focused on Corpus Christ. Leaders and residents prepared for the worst. Prayer was the only hope. City officials and pastors united across the area, crying out for God’s mercy and for God to rebuke the storm. Then, in the predawn hours prior to landfall on Friday, Harvey miraculously turned westward. Corpus Christi had minimal damage, no deaths or reported injuries. Prayers had been answered.
Further down the coast, where the eye of Harvey slammed into shore, there was unprecedented devastation to the quaint coastal town of Rockport. The fury of the storm crushed almost all the buildings in the downtown area. Yet, after the storm passed, a lone house and prayer chapel stood among the rubble. It was inhabited by an elderly Catholic Priest who refused to evacuate. Through the violent winds and flooding, he stayed and prayed. In the morning, he was alive and the prayer chapel was still standing.
In Port Aransas, a resort community of only 3,000, Harvey smashed the business district, restaurants and turned shops inside out. The flood waters damaged thousands of homes and businesses like The Coffee Waves shop. The owner, Pastor David Bendett shared, “Sadly, my coffee shop is a total loss. Please pray for my employees that will be out... Continuation on Page: 7

Why the Princess Diana should have avoided her encounter with a spirit medium By Charles Gardner
DONCASTER, UK (ANS – August 31, 2017) – Amidst all the hype and nostalgia over the 20th anniversary of the tragic death of Diana, Princess of Wales, I feel a duty to point something out that political correctness has deemed the great unmentionable (though not quite an elephant in the room, because few among our biblically illiterate mainstream media are aware of its seriousness). I well remember the concern I felt in the summer of 1997 when it was reported that Diana and her lover, Dodi Al Fayed, were visiting a spiritist medium in Derbyshire, England. They arrived by helicopter and there was much press coverage, as was always the case when the socalled “Queen of Hearts” was involved. The Paris car crash in which the couple were killed just over a two weeks after this deadly encounter in Derbyshire should have served as a warning to the millions of others dabbling in the dark world of the occult. I will explain what I mean by “deadly encounter” in due
course. Meanwhile Dodi’s father Mohamed concocted a bizarre conspiracy theory around the tragedy -- claiming that it was an assassination engineered by Buckingham Palace and MI6 in order to deal with the supposed unsuitability of a possible Muslim match with royalty. Others blamed the chasing Paparazzi for causing the crash as an apparently drunk “chauffeur” drove at nearly 100mph to get away from them. In looking back, most of our media paint a glossy picture of Diana as a tragic victim of so much misunderstanding -- and indeed she was; a beautiful woman rejected by her husband, her insecurity driving her to search for love in the wrong places. Yes, very much the story of our age, hence the great outpouring of grief as millions, including myself, could identify with her. (In fact, the evidence of my family tree even suggests an ancestral connection with the Spencers). While it is right and proper to extend compassion to Diana’s sons William

and Harry over their grievous loss of an evidently wonderful mother, it was refreshing to get a somewhat different perspective from Daily Mail columnist Dominic Lawson, who revealed that the Princess had spurned his advice about keeping away from the Fayeds. In Dominic’s own words, Mohamed Fayed was “nothing but trouble,” citing for example “the almost toxically controversial nature of the Egyptian (then owner of Harrods)
and the fact that having been condemned eight years earlier in a 752-page Department of Trade report as a serial liar and fantasist, he was not a suitable holiday host either for her or her sons.” More serious still was her spurning of warnings given in God’s Word, the Bible, described as “the most valuable thing this world affords” at our Queen’s coronation.

After the teacher read the book to the class, the male student changed from his “boy clothes” into his “girl clothes.” The teacher then instructed students to use the boy’s new “girl name.” Later, when one mother asked the school what happened, the teacher told her to “ask your child.” Rocklin Academy Superintendent Robin Stout re-

ROCKLIN, Calif., Aug. 25, 2017 /Christian Newswire/ -- Concerned mothers and fathers flooded a school board meeting Monday in response to a Kindergarten teacher that introduced a student to her class as transgender without notifying parents. Now, another parent at the same school is outraged that her child was sent to the principal’s office for “misgendering” a male classmate who now identifies as a girl. The August 21 meeting was packed with parents struggling to comfort their scared and confused children. The Kindergarten teacher (who was not named) told her students one of their classmates was “a girl trapped in a boy’s body.” One concerned mother told CBS Sacramento “my daughter came home crying and shaking so afraid she could turn into a boy.” The controversial incident occurred June 7 at Rocklin Academy Gateway, a public charter school near Sacramento.

Report a call to action
International (MNN) — Earlier this month, U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson introduced this year’s International Religious Freedom Report. And while it hardly made a splash in our politically inundated newsfeeds, the report is an important one. When presenting the report, Tillerson condemned the actions of ISIS in particular. He also called out Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, and China among others. Within the most targeted groups, he said, are minority Christians who’ve converted from another religion. He noted that persecution can come in a variety of forms from governments, individuals, and terrorist groups. The topic of religious freedom is of great importance to Open Doors USA. The group is dedicated to pleading the cause of Christians living under persecution. In fact, for a number of years now, they have briefed the State Department with their World Watch List which ranks nations where Christian persecution is the worst. David Curry, President and CEO of Open Doors

USA, says from what they have seen, the IRF report was “spot on”. “This report really validates what we know is true, which is [that] the persecution for Christians and religious minorities is a major issue — is a major political issue.” For the most part, the report contained no surprises. But, Curry says there was at least one note-worthy addition. “It’s somewhat surprising that they wanted to highlight China. I think it’s absolutely correct. I think it could be a signal that the State Department is taking this seriously because it would be very easy for
them to overlook China.” In the last few decades, religious freedom seems to have grown in China. But while there is relative religious freedom compared to long ago, it’s certainly not total. Recent years have seen a number of grave signs that these freedoms are tightening up again in an effort to get the growing population of Christians under state control. The report specifically detailed torture, physical abuse, imprisonment, and more based on religious identity. Tillerson also highlighted similar abuses in other nations. The report itself covered the cur-
rent status of religious freedom in the rest of the world. Why this report matters The IRF report is vital in the fight against religious persecution because it educates a broader audience about the issue and helps them see it’s not just a religious issue, but a world issue. Curry says, “I think what it does is it bolsters much of what we’ve been saying for these many years. And I think it gives people who have a secular worldview a lens with which to view what’s going on around the world. This isn’t just about Christians wanting to evangelize the world.
This is about people who have humans rights.” He says that religious persecution cannot be separated from human suffering and that even issues like political corruption or famine can be traced back to religious freedom violations. And a quick runthrough of the report reveals one very important fact: it’s not just a nation here or there that is violating religious freedoms. It’s happening globally. Curry says, “So you look at it and you say, ‘Wow, 80 percent of the population
of the world lives in these areas’ where they have major persecution and harassment, restrictions, hostilities that limit their freedom of religion.” Influencing change The report is not merely educational but it is also a call to action. The State Department may choose to pursue some of the issues detailed in the report, especially in areas where we have a lot of influence. And they may not. But that’s where you come in.

Hearing held for terrorist in Barcelona Cambrils attacks
BRADENTON FLORIDA | FREE - Donations Welcome!
BY LYNDSEY KOH
Spain (MNN) — A hearing was held for 12 suspects in an alleged ISIS terror cell responsible for the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils last week. Around 5:00 pm local time Thursday, a vehicle drove into a street of tourists in the heart of Barcelona and killed 13 people. Not long after that, another terrorist vehicle attack and stabbing in Cambrils killed one more and injured six just after midnight Friday morning. A driver of a hijacked car was also found stabbed to death just outside Barcelona. In total, 15 people were killed and more than 100 injured in this series of terror attacks. In addition to the 12 arrested, eight members of the alleged terror cell have been killed, including the driver of the van who rammed into Barcelona pedestrians. Two died in an accidental house explosion before the attacks, which changed the nature of their strike plan, and six were killed by police in shootouts — four by one heroic officer who respon-

ded to the Cambrils attacks. All the 12 arrested suspects at yesterday’s court hearing were young men of North African descent. Rebeca Lampaya, Spain Field Leader with Operation Mobilization, says this attack could cause a further rift between Spanish locals and North African immigrants. “Probably they are getting a bit angry because, as you might know, there is a big population of North Africans meeting in Barcelona and in the surrounding areas.” Lampaya says the Barcelona attack hit extremely close to home for Operation Mobilization’s ministry there. “We don’t have an OM team in Barcelona,
but we have a team just very close, about 25 kilometers south of Barcelona. It is very well connected with public transportation, so our team goes to Barcelona probably a couple of times a week. “As a matter of fact, the team was there the previous day and walking through the affected area. So the team was very shocked because it could have happened to them, you know, if they had a change of plans or what- ever, they could have been walking that street on Thursday at the time of the attack.” Not only that, but the attack in Cambrils was close on their ministry’s heels as well. Just one month ago, OM held a five-day evangelism training conference

The OM team had ventured into the park in Cambrils to share the Gospel and they even had the opportunity to speak with several North African people there. “The day before the out reach, we went to talk to the mayor of the town, we went to the city hall, [and] we asked them if we could pray for them.

UTTOXETER, UK (ANS – August 21, 2017) -- Matthew Murray believes he was miraculously healed after being given just three hours to live. Now his incredible story is heading into print in a powerful new book called He Still Heals. When the pastor of Renew Church in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, contracted malaria and saw all of his major organs go into failure, he and his family feared the worst. With half of his blood stream filled with the deadly parasite and his body rejecting medication, his wife Becky was told by doctors to prepare for the worst and that her husband could be dead within three hours. It was after receiving that
like, ‘Okay, we’ll pray for the town of Cambrils’, and after a month, this is happening.” Although these terrorist attacks have caused shock, fear, and even anger, Lampaya says she sees God strategically going ahead of them to enact Gospel workers where they will be needed. It has stirred the local churches to action. “Right now, the churches are

But the devil also knows who Jesus is. The problem was that she was not serving God, but the devil. She was enslaved by the evil one and her freedom brought trouble -and jail -- for Paul and his companion, Silas, because a money-making racket based on a forbidden activity had been stopped. The authorities sided with the owners of the occult practice, just as often happens today. Could this be

why apparently little effort is being made to prevent so-called kinky sex festivals taking place on the doorsteps of protesting neighbors in Kent? One such festival, in woodland near Tunbridge Wells, was billed as a chance for hedonists to “fulfill fantasies on a mystical site where witches’ covens have met for centuries.” Sexual promiscuity and the occult go together. Occult in all its forms – and that includes horoscopes – can be bracketed under the general heading of witchcraft. It is demonic, deceptive and disastrous. According to the Derby Telegraph, Diana’s visit
to psychic Rita Rogers in Lower Pilsley was not a one-off as she kept in regular touch. Rita apparently warned Dodi to avoid France for fear of an accident in a tunnel and had earlier predicted Diana meeting a man with the initial D on water (they met on his yacht). So there could well have been elements of truth that drew Diana and her lover into a deadly trap. This iswhere dabbling into the occult leads, and why unsuspecting Britons need to be warned to avoid it, and instead pursue the beautiful truth personified in Jesus, who said: “I am the way and the truth and the life; no-one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) Fortune-telling enslaves...

Our experience at Elim prepared our hearts to seek God for revival and to pray and anticipate the Biblical vision of an outpouring of the Spirit of God in our generation. Early in 1974, I sensed God speaking to my heart about a fresh surrender to trust Him for my life in ministry. Until that time, I planned to serve God through the vocation of farming. When I said “yes”, I sensed God had something else in mind and I wondered how He would lead me and where? In 1981, I was ordained to the ministry under the direction of the Lancast

Former Muslim assassin turned follower of Christ
Join The Movement! We would like to share with you an upcoming opportunity organized by The Call... What if a great gathering of Godly women united to lift their voices to heaven? Could another great awakening flood our nation once more? In 1997, a million men fought for their families on the National Mall during Promise Keepers’ massive Stand in the Gap event. This October 9th, the 20th Anniversary of that gathering, women from across America will join together in Washington, DC to proclaim hope and healing for our nation. Mothers, daughters, sisters, friends: we are calling you to join us to bend heaven’s ear with a sacrifice of love, high praise and prevailing prayer. We will rise together as Esthers and Deborahs; de-
Middle East (MNN) — Through a miraculous series of events, Alim, formerly an assassin for Saddam Hussein is now a follower of Christ. Perry LaHaie with Frontiers USAcollects stories of how God is moving in the Muslim world. LaHaie says he heard Alim’s story “from my good friend Charles Morris, who is the host of Haven Today. Charles met Alim on one of his trips to the Middle East to gather stories for his book ‘Fleeing ISIS, Finding Jesus’.” Here is Alim’s story from LaHaie’s website blog: Alim was an assassin for Iraqi dictator Sadaam Hussein back in the 90’s. After Sadaam’s execution, Alim the assassin made a radical career change–he started building cell phone towers. Just into his new career, Alim was kidnapped by terrorists. His company refused to pay the demanded ransom. Alim was a dead man. Then Jesus appeared to him. “Alim, you belong to me. I will deliver you.”
vout women of every age,race and denomination to give voice both to the pain and hope of our deeply divided nation. Can you stand with us to release fresh intercession and the Word of Life for a lost generation? In the 1960s-70s, a million mothers cried out to God for their lost children, and mass salvation broke out. Once again, women must birth a sweeping new Jesus Movement, rising up in the nation as great evangelists and spiritual mothers
to turn us back to God. This may be the most decisive moment in the history of America as a last stand against unrighteousness. Can a nation be saved in a day? Yes, when women pray!

(Photo courtesy of Frontiers USA) The next day, Alim’s cap tors got into a firefight with each other, and Jesus appeared again. “Alim, leave now.” Alim argued, “I’ll be killed in the crossfire!” Jesus persisted, “Leave now.” And Alim did. When he got home, Alim’s wife was waiting at the front gate. “Why are you late?” she asked. Alim was confused. “I was being held for ransom,” he said. “I should be dead!” His wife was undeterred. “Jesus appeared to me,” she said. “He said you belong to him and that he was bringing you home. I expected
bringing you home. I expected you sooner!” Alim and his family now follow Jesus. These stories of Muslims having dreams and visions of Jesus are not rare. LaHaie has been collecting stories like these for 10 years, and Alim’s story is just one of many he has run into over the years, even personally interviewing Muslim-background believers who came to Christ through a vision or dream. He says it makes sense for Jesus to reach out to Muslims this way when you
consider Islamic culture. “Islam considers guys like Abraham and Jacob from our Old Testament to be true prophets, and these guys had dreams from God. Mohammed himself claims to have had visions from [Allah] in receiving the Koran. And so Muslims believe that God speaks through dreams and visions and they seek to hear from God through them. So Jesus is using this expectation to reveal Himself to them as the true light that gives light to everyone.”
There are around 724 million Muslims in the 10/40 Window, according to The Traveling Team. And 86 percent of Muslims have never met a Christian. Yet, only 3.3 percent of missionaries are sent to reach unreached people groups. With so many in the Muslim world who have not had the chance to hear the Gospel, it seems to be another reason why Jesus is moving in miraculous ways. “Obviously, Jesus is saying to Muslims, ‘I love you. I want you in my family.’
But second, Muslims don’t have access to God’s Word and so few are really bringing God’s Word to Muslims. So these dreams and visions create a hunger for Muslims to find out more about Jesus. So they look for more and they get the New Testament and they read about Jesus and they fall in love with Jesus.” It adds gravity to our responsibility in the Great Commission. “Here is Jesus showing up and doing these mighty things among Muslims,...

Counselor’s Corner:
YOU’RE SAFE! Part 2
Last month I shared how we could better understand our relationships with others as we become emotionally involved with them. In this article, I want to share a few examples on how to develop discernment in recognizing certain traits in others that may become unsafe for you. First, unsafe people think they “have it all together” instead of admitting their weaknesses. When you are with someone and share your problems but they never seem to have any or act like they have it all together, do you feel like the “weak one”? Do you begin to feel too dependent on the strong one? Do you
By : Louise Alleva
feel like you are never strong for them? These patterns keep the strong one from growing spiritually and emotionally. We grow closer in part by confessing our faults and weaknesses to each other, James 5:16. If the person is always being strong and without needs, they are not growing and are setting themselves up for a fall. Two, unsafe people are religious instead of spiritual. They may know a lot of theology but have trouble being a “real person”. They think they are not vulnerable, they lose touch with pain, they don’t have a need for people or recognize their sinfulness.
International Religious Freedom Report a call to action From Page 5
Curry says, first, we have to consider who we are trading with. If a nation does not value human rights, should we be trading with them at all? And then, we need to speak up. Contact your senators and congressmen and let them know that international religious freedom matters to you.
The best thing to push, Curry says, is for the confirmation of the currently appointed Ambassador-at-Large for the office of International Religious Freedom, Sam Brownback. Secondly, we can be praying for the persecuted believers around the world. A good place to start is
The more they know about God the more they feel further away from Him. Safe people really know God and his ways instead of doing a lot of religious activities and speaking the language. Safe people are relational, understand and love others and are honest about themselves and about life. Three, unsafe people are defensive instead of being open to feedback. Have you heard someone consistently say things like, “You always focus on what I do wrong? You never compliment me when I do something right or no one is perfect, not even you!” That is an example of an unsafe attitude when bewith Open Doors’ World Watch List where you can learn about the particular struggles facing each na tion. Finally, you can partner with Open Doors financially to support the persecuted Church. A big part of this is giving them access to God’s Word. “The number one restricted book in the world is the Bible. People are afraid of it from North Korea to Iran. Every despot over history has been afraid of the Bible for a reason. We want to give people access to it.”

ing confronted. Everyone makes mistakes and because we all have weaknesses within us and they show up the most in our relationships with others. The key is whether we can receive feedback, be humble enough to realize what we are doing and saying and be willing change and grow. That is the mark of a truly safe person. Four, unsafe people only apologize instead of changing their behavior. This is most obvious in unfaithful or abusive spouses. They’ll be apologetic after the abuse and yet do it again and again yet apologize profusely again and again. As Forest Gump said, “sorry is as sorry does.” The real resolution is true repentance which means a true turnaround. That doesn’t mean there is perfect behavior after that point, but the change is real and it does bear fruit over time. Five, unsafe people believe they are perfect instead of admitting their faults. They are on a mission to prove they are perfect. This can be seen in their work, abilities, or religion. They try to project an
image of perfection. They want to remain blameless in every situation where they may be at fault. They must keep up their image at all costs and will blame others if that is threatened. Six, unsafe people lie instead of telling the truth. Honesty is the strength of a safe relationship. Lying at any level of a relationship is very dangerous. Trust is based on truth. We all lie sometimes but the safe person owns the lie and becomes aware of their weakness to deceive. This helps them after being confronted to have humility and repentance. Unsafe people defend themselves instead of admitting the lie or giving up their lies. One thing I want to stress. Please do not to begin looking at new relationships under a microscope to see if they might be safe enough to be your friend. Unsafe traits can be hidden in us as well. NO ONE IS PERFECT. Even safe people will slip and become unsafe for we are all sinners and should never expect perfection in others or ourselves. Therefore, when you are noticing a weakness in a
close relationship, look at these traits in terms of degrees. Everyone lies sometimes but not everyone is a consistent liar, we all struggle with perfectionism, tend to blame others, act more religious than spiritual at times. But if you or someone else is confronted and seem to be willing to change, forgive, or ask for forgiveness, we need be gracious and willing to work with them or accept counsel for ourselves. But if there is resistance against change or help, proceed with caution! Reference: “How to Find Relationships That are Good for You”. Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend.

more recent extraordinary re-gathering of Jews to their promised land from every corner of the globe, is surely proof enough that the Bible can be trusted absolutely. Prophecy -- the forth-telling of God’s will, ways and purposes -- is one thing. Consulting mediums is quite another, an activity strictly forbidden by the Lord. It’s about seeking secret knowledge in order to feel in control by delving into a future that God has chosen not to reveal. He wants us to live by faith – that is, by trusting him for our daily needs. “Without faith it is impossible to please God…” (Hebrews 11:6) It is not for us to know precisely what lies ahead (see Deut. 29:29). Dabbling with darkness will invite all kinds of

...you, because it ties you to the course dictated by whatever “revelation” has supposedly been given rather than freeing you to make your own decisions and trust God to lead you in his “paths of righteousness.” (Psalm 23:3) Of course I can’t say for certain whether Diana ever read the passages I have quoted or was aware of them. But the Bible is God’s Word to us. It is not just a history book. It contains a vast breadth of advice and wisdom on how to live our lives. Ignorance on the day when we will all have to give account of our lives will be no excuse (2 Corinthians 5:10).

LOS ANGELES, /Christian Newswire/ -- Chasing Butterflies Pictures has set a September 15th, 2017 theatrical release for JUSTICE. Universal Pictures Home Entertainment will debut the film on Digital as well as On Demand on the same date. The all-new Western drama stars multiple-award winning Stephen Lang (Avatar, Don’t Breathe), Robert Carradine (Django Unchained, Revenge of the Nerds), Jamie-Lynn Sigler (The Sopranos, Entourage), Jackson Rathbone (Twilight), Nathan Parsons (True Blood), and Academy-Award® nominee Quinton Aaron (The Blind Side). Rounding out the star-studded cast is Ellen Hollman (SIX, Spartacus: War of the Damned), Lesley-Anne Down (The Bold and the Beautiful) and former UFC Champion, John Lewis (Check Point). It’s 1870 and the Civil War has been over for three years. An old, abandoned mine is now being transformed into a military stronghold by a corrupt mayor (Stephen Lang) and his band of outlaws led by the blood-thirsty thug Reb (John Lewis) hell-bent on reigniting the war. When a U.S. Marshal (Nathan Parsons) comes to town only to learn from the local teacher (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) that his brother, the town priest (Jackson Rathbone), has been murdered, his search for the killer leads to an inevitable clash that becomes a life or death struggle for a much greater cause. Directed by Richard Gabai and produced by A.J. Perez, Niko Foster and John Lewis, based on a story by Shawn Justice, JUSTICE is packed with action and embodies the timeless battle between good and evil, and the moral struggle between selfishness and selflessness, in an often unforgiving, lawless world.

My Dad was Healed of Inoperable Liver Cancer By Robin Clayton
My dad has always been the strongest man I know. He literally would have given his life if it would have saved one of us children or my mom. My dad has NEVER let me down. No matter what crisis I found myself in, he was always there. If I ever got scared, he was the first person I would call or go to because he would always fix it for me. I have lived with my dad since my precious mother died. he always helped me when I was sick and still treated me like I was sixteen instead of 46. Now he was sick. Not just sick with a virus or the flu, but he was really sick with the big “C” word nobody wants to hear. I prayed for his healing but I felt so helpless. I have never felt this kind of hopelessness. My dad had metastatic inoperable liver cancer. I wish I could have shared my liver with him because without a miracle, my dad could die before he gets out of the hospital. That was April of 2011. In May of 2010 he had survived his first battle with cancer of the colon. The doctors wanted to know what my dad was made since he was able to survive a colon cancer so far advanced causing complete blockage of the bowels. He had many setbacks along the road to recovery but God is faithful. In 2010 Dad was too weak to come home, so they brought him home in an ambulance. We took care of him from there!! It was hard to keep a positive attitude while he was so weak, because my mom’s hospital bed was in the exact place and looked the same, it was just too familiar a scene reminding me when Mom died of cancer some years back, and now here it is again. Dad recovered from that first round of cancer and we were relieved. However, it came back. This time
They sent dad a hospital bed, because he was just too weak. (It was hard to keep a positive attitute while he was so weak, because my mom’s hospial bed was in the exact place and looked exactly the same, and the potty too, it was just to familiar)
April 22, 2011 “Dad up walking again! yay!” -Robin
March 24, 2011 The dr is very pleased with dad. Said dad is right on target. Dr said blood work was great and he was sticking with original plan. We are happy. in his liver. Dad never lost faith however, he stayed the course and determined to live and not die. The cancer doctor at the University of Alabama in Birmingham told Dad he was a miracle. He said there was no more trace of cancer even after previously opening dad up surgically and then sewing him back up since the tumor was inoperable. He even told us to let dad live the rest of his life without any chemo or radiation because the tumor would kill him within a year. Dad did not lose his faith during this time. He later developed a dangerous contagious virus while on chemo. They quarantined him. It was a very rough few weeks. Three weeks to be exact, we were in the hospital with 2 of them in the quarantine room.
They later sent us home from Birmingham to die after he was over the virus. Dad still said he was not worried, he said he knows who is in control of his life and that he will be going home to babysit his great grandchildren again. That he did, and not only that, but the cancer disappeared. There was no explanation for it, no words from the doctors as to why he did not have the tumor anymore that was supposed to grow pretty rapidly. It is not anything my Dad did, except to keep his faith while all his children prayed in faith, and then the cancer disappeared. There is nothing that man can say about this cancer disappearing. Especially since we were told there was no chance to live after having sewed back
CLEANING
Starting another iv in the other arm. Too much going in other arm. one vein just burst. trying again -Robin up without removing the Tumor. The cancer disappeared, my dad is healed, and that was 5 years ago. Philippians 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Philippians 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Philippians 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
“Cancer is just a name, and the Scriptures say the Name of Jesus is above every name, even the dreaded name of cancer. My dad is now 89 years old and he is living proof.”
