Not Forgotten reaches Muslim women for Christ

USA (MNN) — With circumstances becoming increasingly dire in Iran, many people seek alternative options. They often flee to the U.S. or other Western countries.
However, according to Uncharted Ministries’ JoAnn Doyle, Muslim immigrants frequently encounter resistance upon reaching their new home. “(Iranian) women see the freedom that women have in America… and they long for that same freedom. They think, ‘If I come to this new country, I will finally have freedom’,” she explains. “Then, they come here, and we Americans are afraid of them. Or, perhaps we even hate them because of 9/11 and all the terrorism that we see,” Doyle continues. “So what do we do? We reinforce the lie that they don’t matter by ignoring them, or by pretending we don’t see them.” Why women matter According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, nearly half a million Americans self-identified as having Iranian heritage. Over 40% of the estimated U.S. total resides in California. “In Iran… most of the people do not like the regime that they are forced to live under. So, many of them do flee, especially into California,” Doyle explains. “Los Angeles, they teasingly say, is ‘Tehrangeles.’ There are so many Iranians there.” Doyle leads Not Forgotten, a division of Uncharted Ministries. Together with a small team, she teaches Christian women how to reach their Muslim neighbors. “Our heart with Not Forgotten is to reach out to those women behind the veil, to show them their biblical place of honor that Jesus has reserved
just for them as women.” Women are the spiritual gatekeepers of the home and family. So, “by reaching a Muslim woman, you truly can reach the Muslim world,” Doyle says. The ministry’s “Seen: Behind the Veil” gatherings turn theory into practice. “As we’re saying ‘[go] engage Muslims’, a lot of people [ask], ‘well, how do I really do that?’,” Doyle says. First, when a request comes in, Doyle works with her team to plan a get-together. “I’ll bring some of my team members and we will have [a one-day training session] where we will inspire you with what God is doing in the Muslim world. Then, we’ll inform you a little bit, give you a little bit of ‘Islam 101’,” she explains. “Then, we will want you to go out and we will actually take you… to engage Muslims, whether it’s for Friday prayers, at a mosque, or maybe some Middle Eastern restaurants or boutiques – just with the goal to show you how easy it is and how fun it is to engage Muslims.” How to share Christ’s love with a Muslim Learn how to reach your Muslim neighbors for Christ by connecting with the Not Forgotten team.

China (MNN) — The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus to be a global health emergency. WHO deliberated for two weeks about whether or not to make the declaration about the coronavirus, which began in China’s Hubei province, in the city of Wuhan. The declaration gives WHO the ability to put travel advisories in place and to review measures being taken to stop the virus. The death toll has already exceeded 170 and continues to grow, with well over 8,000 cases identified. China Partner’s Erik Burklin says the declaration means little to the average person, but does incite a feeling of panic. “I think right now a lot of the medical professionals, including the ones in China, don’t know what they’re dealing with. They just are basically reacting to the symptoms.” The situation in Wuhan The most dramatic action has been taken in the city where the coronavirus first mutated. Burklin says, “Wuhan has literally been shut down and many other cities in the same province have been shut down. You can’t travel. You can’t go outside. You can’t go to
stores. In fact, they’re running out of food and all kinds of basic items.” But the Gospel continues to spread. China Partner has a strong relationship with the Christians in Wuhan, and Burklin says pastors there are ministering in the middle of the panic. “They basically encourage their congregations not to fear and to be at the forefront of helping others.” In a time when many are afraid of death or thinking about it, Burklin says Christians have the hope of the resurrection. “And the reality of the salvation message is that that you will be resurrected.
people has gone viral, Burklin says. In a city full of death, sickness, and fear, the news of Christ’s victory over death shines brighter. Pray for Christians in Wuhan It’s not surprising to see this light in Wuhan, as it hosts one of the largest seminaries in China. “I believe pastors that we have been training over the years are now ministering to the needs of these people that are so desperately in panic mode,” Burklin says. Burklin encourages prayer for the safety of Christians in Wuhan, that they would be protected from the cor-

By Louise Alleva, D.Min, LCPC, CTC Email: Louise.alleva@gmail.com Have you ever experienced rejection and the pain of emotional or physical hurts from someone you trusted or loved? You may begin to share this with someone or decide to bury everything and bear it because you heard that “time heals all wounds”. Eventually the pain does seem to fade. Why? Because your mind is protecting you and covers the wounds with scar tissue, yet it is never quite gone. Years later you could still be struggling and telling others. Then, in frustration someone may say to you, “Get Over It!” This is when we usually go into the self-protection or a denial phase and assure folks that we’re working it through or praying for our healing any day now. Or we try to convince them that we are already “over it” by pretending to be just fine. We may even make an inner vow not to let anyone know how much we still hurt and not “Getting Over It”. I want to tell you all right now. Things happen to all of us that we will never get over, but thankfully there is another option. We can get past it. I have counseled others who went through painful rejection experiences from someone who they
thought were friends and mentors. We would look at the initial cause of the hurt that may have happened recently or explore past years that are still giving them so much physical and mental pain. We would then go through repentance of the judgements, then forgiveness, and asking God for healing, for all involved including my client and those who caused so much pain. They would start to realize that the memory of the incident and the pain it caused was still there, recently or years ago. We then worked on the next step, which was to go past the brokenness, recognize it for what it is even though it still hurts and realize we will never completely “Get over it.” At first it doesn’t seem very comforting that the Lord wants us to be able to use the memories of the incident and the pain it caused as a way for His healing powers to help others. But by God’s grace we can begin to experience the joy and victory that could be ours no matter what we’ve been through. A few weeks after several sessions one counselee contacted me to say how happy she was! Someone in her church was
going through the same kind of rejection she experienced, and she knew how to reach out to her because she had been there! Perfect example for her! You see in order to get past our brokenness, we must recognize it for what it is and set aside the need for an instant fix. Then with God’s grace we can begin the journey toward freedom and joy that can be no matter what we’ve been through. The final step is to realize that we won’t always feel the way we do now! Think about it. When we feel down, we should seek the folks around us who can encourage us and help us be stronger. Then when we feel better or things have changed for the best, we can be encouragers to others who are suffering. The Lord says it so well in Isaiah 43:19. “Look I’m doing a new thing; can’t you see it?” I want to see it! Don’t you?

Separated
By Sarah Jansson, Evangelist/Prophet | sarahjansson.com
Stepping out, stepping up-shifting into your next season…. Where does it all start? In the book of John verse seventeen, Jesus prayed for those that the Father gave Him out of the world to be His and enjoy Eternal Life. This is one of my favorite chapters in the book of
John. You can truly see the heart of Jesus concerning us in this chapter. Jesus prayed to the Father for those that were given to Him out of the world, to be sanctified, which means to be purified, consecrated, separated for Himself. He prayed for allof us who will believe in, trust
in, cling to and rely on Him, to be dedicated, consecrated, and make holy in the Truth. As we also seek to be filled with His precious Holy Spirit, this becomes His continual work in us, as we yield and surrender every day with each decision that we must make. “Not my will, but thy will
Super Bowl Halftime Show Becomes Babylon
MADISON, Wis., Feb. 3, 2020 /Christian Newswire/ -- Jennifer Lopez and Shakira delivered the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium at Super Bowl LIV. The show was filled with lots of simulated sex, pelvic thrusting, grabbing private parts, and crotch shots. Pole dancing was included. According to 2ndvote. com, the NFL supports the following: Marriage The NFL served as a 2016 GLAAD Media Awards Sponsor and is a GLAAD corporate partner, which is an organization that supports same-sex marriage.

Steve McConkey operates 4 WINDS USA, a Madison, Wisconsin worldwide ministry that stands up for Christian athletes. “The actual football game was great, but the halftime show went Babylon, mixing sexual messages with weird New Age overtures,” states McConkey. “The NFL and Pepsi should take a hard look at what they
are trying to accomplish. Has America fallen to the point where we accept this? “All major league sports organizations have caved into promoting immorality, mostly surrounding Pride Day that honors homosexuality. The enemy is using sports to further immorality. Sports should not be an idol, but have its proper place.”In 2003, McConkey started fighting against the International Olympic Committee for allowing transgenders in the Olympics. He was
be done in me,” is my prayer. The key here is surrender, and to allow Holy Spirit to cut our ties with the world and separate us unto a life that is pleasing to the Father. The Word tells us we are in the world but not of the world, so all the strongholds and soul ties to the things of the world must go now. Jesus prayed in the same chapter that we would be one, just as the Father was in Jesus, and Jesus was in the Father, when He was on earth. He also prayed that we who accepted Jesus within our lives would be one in the Father and the Son, Jesus. In verse twenty-three Jesus prayed unto the Father, “I in them and You in Me.” So, we are called by God Himself to be separated and set-apart to be holy even as He is holy. So

again, as we yield and surrender to the Holy Spirit within us, more and more, He brings to manifestation the outcome that we are now the children of God, bearing His image and likeness. We now understand that we are a spirit, and we have soul which is our mind, will and emotions, and we live in a body. The Holy Spirit lives within our spirit-man now and takes preeminence as we continue to learn by His Word and His Spirit to give over the controls to his leading over the thoughts in our mind, our will and our emotions and the actions we chose to walk in, or not walk in. We learn to allow God to be God over our lives, the things we say and the things we do, as we receive revelation knowledge of His Word within our spirits. We separated ourselves from the desires of the flesh
and crucify the carnal, giving the controls over to Him, and Him alone. This enables us to walk as victorious and overcoming Christians, as we learn to wield the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. As we continue on this journey, we will find a friend that is closer than a brother, a Father that never leaves us, the bridegroom that is awaiting His glorious bride, the Comforter and strengthener of our soul who is always there, within us and for us.

A Biblical Response to LGBTQ+ Tyranny -- Second Annual Gathering of God’s Voice Conference
BRADENTON FLORIDA | FREE - Donations Welcome!
BY First Stone Ministries
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla.,/Christian Newswire/ -- GOD’S VOICE Conference launched in 2019 to bring biblical clarity to the confusion surrounding the issues of “LGBTQ+ Christianity” and the errors injected into conservative church circles by the “Revoice” movement. This year, the gathering seeks to equip Christians to face radical LGBTQ+ activists’ growing threats to biblical morality, biological reality and the God-given rights to religious freedom and free speech. From the religious freedom-crushing Equality Act to unconstitutional talk-therapy bans, from shocking Drag Queen Story Hours to indoctrinated children seeking surgical “gender transitions,” from radical LGBTQ+ activist pressure at Christian colleges to Big Tech censorship, Christians are facing unprecedented pressure to conform to the demands of this tyrannical move ment. GOD’S VOICE Conference 2020 will feature an unprecedented lineup
of top Christian leaders, pastors, pro-family activists and medical and therapeutic experts to inform God’s people about what the LGBTQ+ movement is doing, where it’s headed and how Christians, their churches and their families can stand firm and fight back amid looming cultural and legal battles. Organizer and conference speaker Stephen Black, executive director of First Stone Ministries, says, “Christians must awaken to the growing cultural and legal threats posed by the LGBTQ+ movement if the church is to be prepared to stand against its tyranny and be victorious.” GOD’S VOICE Conference 2020 will equip pastors, ministry leaders and individual believers to be courageous in compassion without any compromise, because true compassion never compromises on GOD’S VOICE -- the Word of God -- when it comes to sexual morality. Black added that above all, GOD’S VOICE Conference 2020 is designed to share the love of God
and the hope of the gospel of Jesus Christ. To register and to obtain more information about travel and accommodations, please visit www.godsvoice.us.

Faces of Choice (9/25/97, Uganda); Dona Fox Deceived Pro-Life Group About Its Super Bowl channel: #FacesofChoice Marie Mendoza (PhilipAbortion survivors pose a pines); Jaylyn Schoch Commercial, Falsely Claimed Ads Were Sold Out vital question to abortion (8/15/03); and Zechariah
Responding to pro-lifers’ outrage this week, FOX Sports said it did not have ad space in the 2020 Super Bowl to fit in a pro-life commercial from Faces of Choice. However, leaders of the pro-life organization said the network gave them the impression that it did, according to the Washington Times. “We would have been fine with a ‘no.’ We’re adults, we can handle a ‘no,’” said Lyric Gillett, the 28-year-old founder of Faces of Choice and producer of the ad. But FOX did not give them a “no” or a “yes” about their ad (see below), which features the stories of more than a dozen people who survived their mothers’ abortions, she told the Washington Times. “Every time we would meet a stipulation or request, it would morph into something different. I would send an email saying, ‘What else do you need to get some type of answer?’” Gillett said. “We never got that answer. So, it’s just been a very frustrating experience.” Gillett said they have been communicating with FOX for six months – only to be ig-
nored repeatedly. Earlier this week, Faces of Choice launched an online campaign urging pro-lifers to contact FOX and ask for a final answer. That answer came Wednesday in response to a Washington Times request for comment: A Fox spokesperson said in an email that the network sold out its ad space early on for this year’s championship game in Miami between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. “Super Bowl LIV sold out at a record pace this year, and unfortunately we were unable to accommodate Faces of Choice and other advertisers,” the spokesperson said. But Gillett said they were led to believe that there was still ad space. She said they answered multiple questions from the network and provided various requested documents. At one point, she said the network told them that they would receive an answer by the end of November. The answer never came, but eventually she said they heard that the Super Bowl ads had sold out. Undeterred, Gillett
said she asked FOX if it would consider the prolife ad if a slot opened up last-minute. The network told her they would give her an answer “very, very soon,” but she never got one, she said. “It feels like the reason for that is they don’t want to, I guess in their minds, give a story that we were rejected,” Gillett said. “… Nothing else makes sense. But again, that’s unprofessional, and I don’t think that’s how they operate with other clients.” The ad has been a work in progress for years, a campaign to shed light on the reality of abortion. Gillett told the Times that she wrote the ad three years ago and began fundraising for the estimated $5 million to purchase a 30-second Super Bowl ad. “Every great human rights movement in history has been anchored in he stories and the faces of its victims,” Gillett said. “That’s what we aim to do; we simply want to tell their forgotten stories and there’s no larger mega-phone than the Super Bowl.” FOX Sports has no problem airing controversial ads during the 2020 Su-

Earlier today, I was honored to stand in the East Room of the White House as President Trump disclosed the details of his proposal for peace in the Middle East. The plan reflects a realistic and sincere approach to bringing peace to the region. Israel’s security is ensured, Jerusalem remains undivided, Biblical holy sites remain open to all and under Israel’s sovereignty, and the Palestinians have a clear path towards a peaceful future. Despite the benchmarks for the Palestinian leadership being low, the Palestinian Authority (PA)rejected the deal before, during and after it was announced. Abandoning terrorism, demilitarizing now and in the future, and recognizing Israel as a Jewish State, are the core elements of what the PA must do But they have chosen rejectionism and violence instead. Conversely, both Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Benny Gantz, the leader of Israel’s other major political party, Blue and White, have enthusiastically welcomed the peace proposal. This is the sixth time the Palestinians have been offered peace and dismissed it. This cycle cannot continue. Moving forward the PA’s failures will no longer be used to punish Israel. That is why, in spite of the PA refusing to change its behavior, Israel will move forward with key elements of this peace proposal. This will likely include Israel’s annexation of the Jordan River Valley. This critical strip of land ensures Israel will have defensible borders in perpetuity. Each time the Palestinian leadership rejects a peace proposal, violence ensues. At this critical moment we must focus our efforts to safeguard the US-Israel relationship. Following the PA’s lead, Israel’s detractors here at home will redouble their efforts to demonize the Jewish State, so we too must redouble ours to defend Israel in our churches, communities and on Capitol Hill. With our 8 million collective voices speaking as one, we can succeed in pushing back against those whose twisted worldview compels them to treat this peace proposal as yet another opportunity to attack the Jewish state. Thank you for your strong support of Israel at this critical juncture. Blessings to you and those you love,

According to NBC News, this year’s big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers will include a commercial featuring drag queens/ LGBTQ activists.

activists through the new ad, “Can you look me in the eye and say I should have been aborted?” The abortion survivors featured in the ad are: Dr. Imre Téglásy (1952, Hungary); Paula Page (02/24/54); Miriam “Penny” Hopper (11/29/55); Denisha Workizer (7/11/76); Melissa Ohden (8/29/77); Jennifer Millbourn (9/02/78); Jennifer Callender (7/18/80); Claire Culwell (3/06/88); Hope Hoffman (8/12/91); Josiah Presley (10/07/95); Asiimwe Ronald Williams
Healed of a non-curable disease
It is not about me, it’s all about Jesus. My name is Frank Barngrover. In May of 2018 I was having some physical problems. I kept going to the doctor because my legs were swelling. The Doctor sent me to a cardiologist who did some heart tests, but my heart was good. They couldn’t figure out what was going on. Later I ended up in the hospital and after I got out, my doctor told me, ‘Frank, you’re going to lose your leg. You must start exercising’. I listened and started exercising but there was one thing I wasn’t doing. I’ll get to that in a minute. They ran blood test on me, and the blood test came back saying I had a disease called Polymyositis. It is a disease where your immune system attacks your muscles. There is no cure for it. They put me on steroids for a while, then I had an infection in my blood, so I ended up back in the hospital again. I was still praying and listening to God Is Real on Facebook, and on Christmas morning I sat up on the side of my bed and started crying and said, ‘Lord why am I not getting well’? He whispered, ‘Quit smoking cigarettes.’ I heard him so I got up and gave my
Hagan (10/20/13), one of the first abortion pill reversal survivors. Ultimately, Faces of Choice leaders hope their stories will break down the myth of “choice.” “Abortion advocates need to look these survivors in the eye and come to terms with the fact that they are human, that their lives matter, and that choice is more than a word: it’s a person,” Gillett said.

the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth. (Habakuk 1:4 KJV) Within the perimeters of all of these totally immoral and corruptible human vices, man is looking for something that can only be found in a relationship with God. But, how does someone go from illegally and possibly legally, falling into the vices that plague the fabric of society? Well, I’m glad you asked... All hope is not lost... There is a blessed hope when you make a conscious decision to turn your back on the very things that are temptations, ready to put you in compromising and dangerous positions. It is only through accepting the fact that nothing will satisfy but bowing under the mighty hand of God. The blessed hope is that Jesus became the ultimate sacrifice to bring humankind back into favor with God. He is the only hope for a way back to God. We are not alone. And he is the propitiation

Romans 3:23 KJV It doesn’t matter whether a prostitute or a person who does everything right “in his or her own eyes”, without the humility enough to accept the gift of salvation, then there will be a constant negotiation where there should be no bending. We as believers must pray, love and take a stand against the vices and the acceptance of the groundswell of destruction on the horizon.

Florida Senate Defeats 28 Pro-Abortion Amendments, Passes Pro-Life Parental Consent Bill
BY: Dave Andrusko
Beating back 28 amendments from pro-abortion committee Democrats, Senate Republicans approved SB 404, a bill which would require teenagers under the age of 18 to obtain permission from their parents or legal guardian before having an abortion. “The bills are not identical, but Senate President Bill Galvano, R-Bradenton, told reporters he anticipates the House will take up and pass the Senate version,” Christine Sexton of the Sun-Sentinel reported. Earlier this month, in his Second State of the State

address, pro-life Gov. Ron DeSantis said, “I hope that the Legislature will send me this session the parental consent bill that last year was passed by the House but not by the Senate.” Sen. Rob Bradley, R-Fleming Island said yesterday, “It’s not only the right of the unborn, but the right of parents to raise their children.” Previously, sponsor Sen. Kelli Stargel said this was personal for her. Stargel became pregnant as a teenager and feared telling her mother: “When I spoke to her, she actually advised (I have)

an abortion,” Stargel said. “I didn’t go that direction. We had a discussion about it and when I told her I wanted to have my child she supported me. I think those same things may happen in a situation with other families.” In 1989, the state Supreme Court struck down the state’s parental consent law on the grounds that it violated a “right to privacy” in the state Constitution. However, since he became governor, DeSanctis has replaced three justices on the state’s highest court— Justices Barbara Pariente, Fred Lewis and Pe-

By Georgia Yost James 4:7 “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Excellent book broke down in three parts. The book has inspiring messages. •What the Word Of God is •How to Study •God compared to man •Our relationship to God •Know your enemy •How to operate in God’s authority Christians should know how to fight. We are in a fallen world and nothing here is perfect. God has given us everything we would have need of to live this life victoriously. We cannot be a light to the world if we are weighed down with the cares of this world. I pray this book can lead you to God and find that in Him we have peace, joy and understanding on how to live. With the years of experience I have, I cannot thank God enough for making it possible for me to share His love and faithfulness. $5.99 Order from www.amazon.com
