CHRISTIANS IN IRAQ FLEE THEIR HOMES AFTER THEIR LIVES WERE THREATEN BY THE NEW MUSLIM LEADER OF MOSUL !!!....

Dear Fellow Workers in the Vineyard of Jesus Christ ; It has been sometime now since our Bugle was heard around the world. Satan had try to cripple us in every way possible ;financially, with sickness of some of our editorial team and co-workers in other countries, through the breaking in and stealing our computers carrying software which assisted us in translating , transporting securely to critical part of the world where the Bible is taboo etc; master minded by a so-called spiritual prophet who could not stand the Truth of God’s word . Yes, we were hit hard but God been faithful we continue to hold fast to the true and carried out the work of God as best as possible through the leading of the Holy Spirit. We bless God for His blessings for as I write to you ; we are getting our materials back one at a time and our team members who were down are up again and ready to work. We must continue to pray for our brothers and sisters in Iraq who continue to request our magazine and send us news even as they are caught up in this own crisis. They wrote “Your articles inspires us during these testing times. We hope you have not stop the publishing of the magazine , because even our young women and youth have begin using some of your materials during our meetings out here in nature .” I can tell you when I received those words ,tears pour down my face; for what meant so little to others meant the world to those who hunger and thirst for righteous sake. We find similar situations in Syria, Ukraine and conflict parts of the world where we prioritized. We must admit if not for your work and inspiration ;we could not have been this effective. Please remember to continue to have them in mind as you write in the future for now you are a vessel with a head lamp which God is using to light up their path. The first phrase of our yearly award program have begun . This is a project to help encourage, motivate and built the self esteem of the few faithful around the world , still holding fast to the Gospel Mandate of Jesus Christ ; teaching, preaching, healing, and assisting the people to understand their values in the eyes of God and men.

Because the world continues to grow darker morally and spiritually by the day ; many personal sacrifices have to be made in order for the un-reach to be reached , many risk taken to enter conflicts zones and reach some not even universally excepted by our modern day social-political status. I know of a family where the father had to sell off some of his horses in order to go to Kenya and feed orphans and teach women and children and preach the gospel to a people caught in a conflict with terrorist groups . That did not scare them . They could have been capture or even killed but they choose Christ rather then death mostly at their own expanse. There are so many on earth today who have studied Theology among other religious studies but their documents are gathering dust on the fireplace in a frame ; while there are those who tilled the vineyard laboring day and night to physically implement the goals which were studied and in most cases have no document. The Bible employees us to give honor to God first and to give to man what rightfully they deserved. After much prayers and in consultation with the Holy Spirit ; we decided to award a Masters of Arts Theological Degree to those who labor day and night honestly to earn it. It might surprise you that it is not to many of the big names you know. God himself said , there will be surprises in Heaven. There are many laboring diligently behind the scene not for title, not for wealth, not for publicity, and for social political influence but that a single soul should truly repent and join the flocks of God. There are those in different spheres of life whom we also felt it right to honor this year. These are the few still fight for the dignity of Human Rights Universally. In this case we did not select base on religious principles but on moral principles in consultation with the Holy Spirit.

We believe in interacting and encouraging those who uphold the universal declaration of Human Rights both from the moral and spiritual aspects. In this world where people are dividing up nations and peoples for selfish gains or superstates ; we seek out those voice speaking out for unity? Education , freedom in every area of life and universal justice for all regardless of who you are ; Jews, Christians , Muslims , etc.There all have the right to live in peace and be educated about universal moral issues about right from wrong. We have to show them the light when they are on the right track and criticize them when they stray from the path. Ignorance is when one assumes he/she understands the truth but in fact knows nothing about it. Many of the assumptions we make about others are false and can only be corrected through interactions, exchange of ideas with an open mind to learn. We believe the world continues to grow darker because these basic values are not taught to peoples ;instead they are been brainwashed by so-called world leaders fighting a battle for their minds. In so doing they do not care what moral values are broken or who is trample upon or killed in the process. Our new system of encouraging other fields of studies and individual upholding human rights is for such a purpose. Continue to unite in prayers for each other for only in unity can we overcome during these dark days. Stand firm and do not join the band duplicating and misinterpreting the Gospel for selfish gains. The period of wolves is here and cult, shrines, occultic behaviors have gradually begun to overrun the true . Host fast or you might be wash away in the flood of evil sweeping up the moral ,God fearing truth from the world today. I love you and will continue to pray for you always as we pray for one another ! God Bless You ; Bishop Steven Liberty Sr.

Seriousness BY AWARD WINNER Jeff Godsown Have you ever taken the time to seriously think about what Jesus went through, in order to purchase you back from the kingdom of darkness, into His marvelous light? I have to tell you, it’s less than a 50/50 proposition, that people have considered the cost. It’s sort of like the sinners prayer, which by the way doesn’t truly exist, have you ever considered the words you spoke to God, the moment you asked to be forgiven and saved? Just one more, please bear with me, did you ever think for one moment, this invisible entity known as God would take you seriously, when you couldn’t even see this savior? God must have a sense of humor, He saved me knowing full well how much of a lunatic I was before being introduced to Him. To me, that takes some kind of major patience, and a really great sense of humor, because I am the kid that keeps on asking questions, and questioning the new answers. I’m sure many of you remember that kid; why?,why?, why?, or maybe, are we there yet, are we there yet, are we there yet? I grew up having a high IQ, but having a high IQ, doesn’t really make one smart, if they can’t figure out why two and two, make four. That was me, as a matter of fact, for the most part that is still me, the person with the high functioning analytical, everything must make sense to me mind, and I am quite serious about it ,too. You know who else is serious, God that’s who and God has an order to things, and He’s quite adamant about us doing things His way and in His order. Though it might not make sense to us at the time of reprimand or correction, if we do things God’s way, we eventually will understand, why! Lev10:1 And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.

Lev 10:2 And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. Lev 10:3 Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. Lev 10:4 And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp. Lev10:5 So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. Lev 10:6 And Moses said unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled. Lev 10:7 And ye shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon you. And they did according to the word of Moses. Lev 10:8 And the LORD spake unto Aaron, saying, Lev 10:9 Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations: Lev 10:10 And that ye may put difference between holy and unholy, and between unclean and clean; Lev 10:11 And that ye may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD hath spoken unto them by the hand of Moses. Lev 10:12 And Moses spake unto Aaron, and unto Eleazar and unto Ithamar, his sons that were left, Take the meat offering that remaineth of the offerings of the LORD made by fire, and eat it without leaven beside the altar: for it is most holy: Lev 10:13 And ye shall eat it in the holy place,because it is thy due, and thy sons' due, of the sacrifices of the LORD made by fire: for so I am commanded. Lev 10:14 And the wave breast and heave shoulder shall ye eat in a clean place; thou, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee: for they be thy due, and thy sons' due, which are given out of the sacrifices of peace offerings of the children of Israel. Lev 10:15

The heave shoulder and the wave breast shall they bring with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before the LORD; and it shall be thine, and thy sons' with thee, by a statute for ever; as the LORD hath commanded. Lev10:16 And Moses diligently sought the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burnt: and he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron which were left alive, saying, Lev 10:17 Wherefore have ye not eaten the sin offering in the holy place, seeing it is most holy, and God hath given it you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD? Lev 10:18 Behold, the blood of it was not brought in within the holy place: ye should indeed have eaten it in the holy place, as I commanded. Lev 10:19 And Aaron said unto Moses, Behold, this day have they offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before the LORD; and such things have befallen me: and if I had eaten the sin offering to day, should it have been accepted in the sight of the LORD? Lev 10:20 And when Moses heard that, he was content. When we try to skirt God’s way, it’s because we’re looking for the easy way out,what we don’t seem to understand, by doing things our way, we have walked smack into sin, and now we’re partying like crazy and swimming deep in it. What else we don’t seem to understand, it didn’t take us by surprise, it took us step by step, little by little, and because we don’t have forward vision, we never saw it coming. God’s way is the hard way, and when God corrects us for stepping out of line, we need to seriously understand, God knows where our self-driven footsteps will take us, and He is very serious over our redemption. He gave His one and only flesh and blood son, to die on the cross, suffering in and through man’s pain,the price of purchase and ransom, for our souls. Step by step, little by little, our shock factor of the mind has been destroyed by both living through war or television violence, taking from us the thought of the torment that Jesus went through,for us. God the Father takes it serious,but we on the other hand, not so much. Without that reverence, without that shock factor, and without compassion for the pain of others, we tend to look on things like that as, just another day.

The road that we have chosen has taken us far away from planet serious, and in so doing, it has also taken us far away from God. We act like our prayers define our seriousness about God, but do our prayers line up with His will, and are our prayers, as serious to us for others as His Sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death is and was for others? We need to get serious about our pursuit of God, and we need to get serious about obeying His every word. We must repent of our lack-a-days , attitude towards Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way, and take Him serious, doing it His way, Amen!!!

Respect

Person! :AWARD WINNER CATHERIN SKINNER <p></p><p>Today I received this awesome reward and I must say it truly came as a surprise to me. I heard two messages today and they both confirmed what has been awarded me. I am honored that my God can trust me with His people. Though He slays me, yet He still trust me to do His will. I am honored that Bishop Steven Liberty Sr. Bishop Joseph & Annette Jackson, and DrCarlton Davis who sees me through the eyes of God. I have never met these brethern in person only in the spirit, and yet they have spoken deeply and planted a seed which I know only came from God.</p> Because He has no respect of person I am a seed that God has given and to water! When God called and anointed me for His purpose and glory. I heard to whom much is given, much is require. Today I heard shout because your were in trouble. Thank God, for yet trusting me in spite of me. And they were offended deeply and refused to believe in him. The Jesus told them, "A prophet is honored everywhere except his own hometown and among his own family." Matthew 13:57 NLT

What it means to me is something I am going to experience from time to time. When God speaks to me and give me a prophetic word to speak into someone's life. He will be rejected. It's not me that they are rejecting but the God that abides within me. I have experienced this rejection and was told to take back that which I spoke to that individual. I will never take back what God has given me to say. I learned that when I am in obedience, He will show them better than I can tell them as He brings that very word to pass at His appointed time. God has chosen me, and it not about me, but all about what God has purposed in my heart to speak and do for His glory and good pleasure. When we let this mind in us be that of the mind in Christ Jesus, His word shall never return void. One thing I learned about God is that He chooses whom He will use to do His Will. Some people things for God for their own self glory and praise even fame. God will speak into some ones heart that you have never met or seen in person to do what others refuse to do because you don't meet their standards or even believe that God has called you. Prayer Father-God, I thank you that you are a God that trust even when we don't trust You. You trust us to do that which you have equipped, assigned and aligned within our hearts for the greater work of Your dear Son Jesus Christ.

I ask You, Abba-Father, to equip, assign, and align my heart according to Your Will and Word. That I may bring no shame to You in doing so. I have been charged to open my heart and allow the work You, will do through me, for I can do nothing apart from You. You have set me apart that You may do a work in me. I submit myself unto Thee for Thy will to be done. In Jesus' name. Amen

ISRAEL AT WAR = 2014 BY: AWARD WINNER TOM ZART As war is fought it takes charge And events spin out of control. The madness of men can alter the soil Which nourishes the roots of their soul. Many things will forever change Far more then wished to be. As the wrath of war starts to destroy Those things we fight to keep free. War is the greatest plague of man Religion, state, and sanity. Any scourge is more preferred Than the one which disables humanity. When war breaks out, boundaries change And all who die are a token Of the rage that must run it's course Before words of peace are spoken. By God's Poet Tom Zart Most Published Poet On The Web!

"DO YOU WANT TO BE CALLED A SON....... OR A DOG?" BY AWARD WINNER PROPHETESS SISTER MARY BOLDEN MATTHEW 7: 6amp. > DO NOT GIVE THAT WHICH IS HOLY (THE SACRED THING) TO THE DOGS, AND DO NOT THROW YOUR PEARLS BEFORE HOGS, LEST THEY TRAMPLE UPON THEM WITH THEIR FEET AND TURN AND TEAR YOU IN PIECES. GOD IS A HOLY GOD. AND HE SAYS IN HIS WORD, WE MUST BE HOLY AS HE IS HOLY. HE SAID , "IF YOU WALK UPRIGHT BEFORE AND UPRIGHT GOD, HE WILL WITHHOLD NO GOOD THING FROM YOU. HIS WORD IS HOLY, THAT'S WHY IT IS CALLED HOLY BIBLE BECAUSE OF WHAT IT CONTAINS WITHIN IT. DO YOU STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF APPROVED UNTO GOD, A WORKMAN THAT NEEDS NOT TO BE ASHAMED , RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE WORD OF TRUTH? OR ARE YOU ONE TO JUST SKIM THROUGH AND MAYBE MEMORIZE A VERSE OR TWO TO TRY AND IMPRESS MAN? HE IS OUR HOLY FATHER. HE RULES OVER THE UNIVERSE, WHICH MAKES HIM SOVEREIGN LORD. DO YOU KNOW HIM? HE IS THE KING OF kings AND THE LORD of lords! HE INHABITS THE PRAISES OF HIS PEOPLE. HE'S WORTHY OF ALL THE PRAISE THAT MAN COULD POSSIBLY GIVE HIM. DO YOU OFFER UP PRAISES TO HIM DAILY AS YOU WALK WITH HIM OR DO YOU WAIT UNTIL HE HAS ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS FOR MONEY OR MATERIALISTIC GIFTS.

I WILL BLESS THE LORD AT ALL TIMES. HIS PRAISES SHALL CONTINUALLY BE IN MY MOUTH. BLESS THE LORD O MY SOUL AND FORGET NOT ALL HIS BLESSINGS. DO YOU TAKE TIME OUT TO GIVE HIM ALLL THE PRAISE EVEN WHEN THINGS ARE GOING YOUR WAY? DO YOU TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM? OR DO YOU WAIT UNTIL YOU FEEL LIKE PRAISING HIM LIKE A DOG WOULD? THAT'S RIGHT, JESUS EVEN SAID TO A WOMAN ONE DAY, "IT'S NOT GOOD TO GIVE BREAD TO THE DOGS WHEN I HAVE MY SONS TO FEED. (oara). THAT'S RIGHT , HE WAS ACTUALLY CALLING HER A "DOG" BECAUSE SHE WAS NOT A BELIEVER IN HIM OR A "SON". TO BE A SON, ONE MUST HAVE ALREADY ACCEPTED THE LORD JESUS AS HIS LORD AND SAVIOR ; MUST ALREADY BE PROVEN A DISCIPLE (FOLLOWER OF CHRIST); MUST OBEY HIS TEACHINGS> "BE A DOER OF THE WORD AND NOT HEARER ONLY."

CHILD OF GOD, ARE YOU ALLOWING YOURSELF TO BE ROBBED BY THE DEVIL? DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT YOUR BENEFITS ARE AS A KING'S KID? IF YOU ARE A SON OF GOD, IT SIMPLY MEANS THAT YOU KNOW YOU MUST LISTEN, HEED, AND OBEY THE VOICE OF THE FATHER, IN THE NAME OF JESUS! YOU MUST BE A WILLING VESSEL, READY TO ACT UPON WHAT YOU HEAR THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD SAY DO WITHOUT DOUBT OR FEAR OF WHAT MAN MIGHT SAY OR DO? THAT'S IF YOU WANT TO BE CALLED A SON. YOU MUST KNOW WHO YOU ARE, WHOSE YOU ARE, WHERE YOU CAME FROM AND WHERE YOU ARE HEADED. AND BEFORE THAT EVEN....YOU MUST KNOW JESUS PERSONALLY AS YOUR LORD, AS WELL AS YOUR SAVIOR. IT'S NOT ENOUGH JUST TO GO TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY AND THEN FORGET ABOUT WHAT THE PASTOR PREACHED ABOUT, NEVER OPENING YOUR BIBLE AGAIN UNTIL THE NEXT SUNDAY MORNING. THAT'S JUST BEING A HYPOCRIT (PRETENDER) AND YES A DOG......NOT A SON OF GOD. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GENDERTO BE CALLED A "SON". I AM A SON OF GOD. SIMPLY BECAUSE I HAVE SURRENDERED MY ALL IN ALL TO HIM AND I HAVE BECOME HIS HUMBLE SERVANT. AND YES, BECAUSE THERE ARE THOSE WHO MAY THINK OF BEING A "SON" IN GENDER FORM, I ALSO ANSWER AS A "DAUGHTER OF THE KING!" THE WORD OF GOD TEACHES THAT THERE IS NEITHER MALE NOR FEMALE; BOND NOR FREE; JEW NOR GREEK IN THE EYESIGHT OF GOD. SO, WE NEED TO PUT ON OUR SPIRITUAL HELMETS AND RECOGNIZE WHO GOD IS AND WHO WE ARE IN CHRIST JESUS.

WE SERVE A RESURRECTED SAVIOR, BUT HAVE YOU BEEN RESURRECTED YET? OR ARE YOU STILL "A WALKING DEAD MAN" STILL NOT ABLE TO TAKE A STAND FOR THE ONE YOU SAY YOU BELIEVE IN? HE SAID IF YOU ARE ASHAMED TO OWN HIM BEFORE MAN, HE WILL ALSO BE ASHAMED TO OWN YOU BEFORE HIS FATHER AND HIS HOLY ANGELS. SO, GET TO KNOW HIM INTIMATELY AND BEFORE YOU HAVE YOUR HAND OUT FOR HIM TO BLESS YOU AS A DOG WOULD JUST RUN UNDER THE TABLE FOR CRUMBS, SEEK HIS FACE. IN OTHER WORDS ...GET TO KNOW HIM!! THEN, IF YOU'RE NOT SURE ABOUT WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST OR SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN WHERE YOU CAME FROM AND WHO IT WAS THAT BROUGHT YOU OUT OF BONDAGE.........SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEN, ALLLL OTHER THINGS WILL BE ADDED UNTO YOU. (MT. 6:33 amp.) I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I DON'T WANT JESUS TO CALL ME A DOG AND TELL ME I CAN ONLY HAVE CRUMBS UNDER THE TABLE. I WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A KING'S SON OR DAUGHTER. I WANT TO WALK WITH INTEGRITY IN THE LAND AND NOT WITH MY HEAD DOWN IN SHAME!! IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN OBEDIENT, THEN YOU NEED TO REPENT AND ONCE YOU HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN, YOU WILL BE TREATED LIKE THE KING'S SON INSTEAD OF LIKE A DOG!!! MAY THE LORD GOD SAVE, DELIVER AND SET FREE THE CAPTIVE SOULS SO THAT THEY CAN TAKE THEIR RIGHTFUL PLACES IN THE EARTH. LET THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE IN EARTH AS IT IS ALREADY IN HEAVEN.

GOD'S RICHEST AND CHOICEST BLESSINGS BE UPON YOU AS A SON OF GOD, JOINT HEIR TO THE SON OF GOD!!! IN JESUS' MIGHTY, MIRACULOUS, MATCHLESS NAME. AMEN. PROPHETESS SISTER MARY

The Beauty and Burden of Work BY AWARD WINNER CATHERIN SKINNER IN music there is a wonderful thing called phrasing where the performer punctuates or caresses the flow of sound according to the mood and emotion she/he wants to convey. The rising and falling, the peaks and valleys are what makes the music interesting. This is what allows the artist to achieve both unity and variety-to hold their attention and move our spirits. Without unity, there would be chaos; without variety, we'd be bored. Phrasing distinguishes the supreme artist from one of lesser inspiration. I am reminded of God's phrasing over my life as the unity of Solomon's thought develops here on the beauty and the burden of work. God's gift to us through work is a sense of satisfaction because he knows the value of honest labor. His design through the phrasing of our lives, the sometimes unpleasant labor, is to perfect us in himself. From his first thought of us at the beginning of creation; he saw us as complete and finsihed in Christ. Solomon uses contrasting thoughts: work and toil coupled with beauty and satisfaction; the beginning of God's plan as opposed to the end; the eternal viewpoint versus the temporal; human inability to fathom reflected against God's total understanding. As the melody of our lives unfolds on a daily basis, the high point lies in the fact that God is never going to make a mistake with the motif that he's specifically designed for us. Whatever he does will endure forever.

He brings out the beauty of harmony and richness as he directs every facet of our lives. This fact guarantees that all crises already have been met and overcome in him. As we live, work, and bear our burdens, be assured that the melody of our lives is controlled by the eternal God of the universe who knows us from the beginning to end. Let there be no question of what our song is all about. by Luci Swindoll REFLECTIONS: Here are two different version of this passages of Scripture I enjoy reading. V 11- God has given them/us a desire to know the future [placed eternity/and awareness of time/ or ignorance in our hearts]. He does everything just right and on time [ makes everything appropriate/beautiful in its time], but people can never completely understand what he is doing [discover/find the work that God does from the beginning to end; human cannot discern the right time]. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men;s heart and mind [ a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. (AMP)

HE HAS MADE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL IN ITS TIME. I KNOW THAT EVERYTHING GOD DOES WILL ENDURE FOREVER; NOTHING CAN BE ADDED TO IT AND NOTHING CAN BE TAKEN FROM IT. GOD DOES IT SO THAT MEN WILL REVERE HIM. ECCLESIASTES 3:11, 14 Inspired by the Word of God Shared by Catherin Skinner

Who Can Make War Against The Beast.....AWARD WINNER KENNETH WHITE

THE BLASPHEMIES OF THE BEAST “And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies…and he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, and His tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven” (Rev. 13:5-6). The beast that ascends out of the sea has seven heads, hence seven mouths, and yet it is said, “a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies was given it.” This indicates that the ability to mouth great things and blasphemies would be allowed to it and that all seven heads would combine to speak these things, doing so as with one mouth. Whether the mouth of science, or the mouth of government, or the mouth of religion, or any other, one and all speak the same kinds of great, boastful things and blasphemies. He actually opens his mouth to blaspheme the name of God, and of his tabernacle, namely, those who dwell in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. To blaspheme the name of God is to act contrary to His nature, to deny His sovereignty, His power, and all His virtues. Ah, yes, this world system of man does have a mouth! And it does speak great things! “A mouth speaking great things” means eloquence and authority. What is this voice of the beast? A simple example would be the media.

Note also the great swelling words that continually pour forth from the institutions of education, science, politics, government, the courts, medicine, and religion. Each of these has an agenda, a sphere of influence, and they demand to be heard, embraced,and obeyed! All the way down to some of the smaller church systems, the voice proclaims that you must be “under their authority,” “under their covering,”and you must march to the beat of their drums. But it is the dragon that gives this wild animal his great voice and his authority! The blasphemies are toward God, His name (nature, character), and His tabernacle (His body, His temple, the people in whom He dwells). It is evident that the agenda of this beast is in opposition to the nature of God, the will of God, the ways of God, the word of God, the government of God, and the people of God. It is the spirit of the world, the spirit of the times which speaks out of the mouth of the beast. His mouth becomes the organ through which the spirit of the times, the standards and agenda of the world reveals itself, makes itself be heard. And behold, he speaks great things and blasphemes the holy things of the Lord! Indeed, this widely opened, loud speaking, blasphemous mouth of the beast can be seen and heard everywhere! As we look into our daily newspapers, watch the television programs, listen to the radio, read the worldly writings and books on art, science, industry, legislation, news, morality, sex education, and religion, we have in them that organ, that mouth out of which the spirit of the world, the spirit of the times speaks to us, speaking great things. What powerful speeches, proclamations, and teachings are heard, what mighty, dignified human bragging and boasting goes on, telling what science has determined to be true, what government will do, what laws will control the conduct of the citizens, what aberrant behavior must be tolerated and condoned, what norms of society reflect the moral values which should be acceptable,

how to get ahead in this world, how to invest to gain wealth, swaggering, as though the material, the temporal were the greatest thing of importance, but at the same time the most horrible blasphemy, scorn, and ridicule toward the word of God, the ways of God, and the people of God! Wherever the government speaks, God must be silent. Whatever the state, social services, planned parenthood, the school board, or the courts allow is right and is no longer considered as unrighteousness. When science has spoken and given its decision, Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s truth no longer counts; scholarship and science has disproved it! Wherever the spirit of commerce manifests itself, there everything is grand, there everything must bow and be subservient, there everything is sacrificed. Think of the exactness with which the courts of justice, the federal banks, and the executive branch of government negotiate in questions pertaining to matters of business, finance, and the economy, as though these were the most important and sacred things, while on the other hand, they banish God and His word from government, the courts, and the classroom, and sanction all kinds of moral abomination. Yes, they blaspheme with mighty phrases! And opposite this mouth of blasphemy the holy apostles and prophets and the humble followers of the Lamb are considered worthless. In our day even the preachers and religious leaders have generally fallen victim to the beast and the spirit of the times!......J Preston Eby.....

Bandwagon : AWARD WINNER JEFF GODSOWN I’m sure that most who read this post have heard the expression, “jumpin” on the bandwagon”, but with all I have seen and heard, I wonder does anyone really know what it means? In layman’s term the bandwagon effect refers to people doing certain things because other people are doing them, regardless of their own beliefs, which they may ignore or override. The perceived"popularity" of an object or person may have an effect on how it is viewed on a whole. For instance, once a product becomes popular, more people tend to "get on the bandwagon" and buy it, too. The bandwagon effect explains why there are fashion trends.[4]When individuals make rational choices based on the information they receive from others, economists have proposed that information cascadescan quickly form in which people decide to ignore their personal information signals and follow the behavior of others.[5] Cascades explain why behavior is fragile—people understand that they are based on very limited information. As a result, fads form easily but are also easily dislodged. Such informational effects have been used to explain political bandwagons.[6]Whether we like the ideology or not, it stands in truth, when we fire up on someone, oral body of someone’s, or an action, we have set the stage for a political agenda, in which we hope there will be a desired effect on the person, persons,or actions involved. We become judge, jury, and set the stage for the executioner, all because we don’t like someone or something about someone or something. No matter how anyone chooses to look at the issue, the issue is one of a very personal nature, and it should be kept to self. Meaning: to support a cause only because it is popular to do so.

If you ‘jump on the band wagon, you join a growing movement in support of someone or something when that movement is seen to be about to become successful. Remember the days when grandmothers used to say, “if you can’t say anything nice about someone, say nothing at all”! If anything sounds good, or worthy, or even popular, we habitually want to be a part of it and that is based on our selfish need to be winners. Why is it that people think it’s OK to criticize and condemn someone else because they don’t see eye to eye? Just a thought;but what if you had to live in that persons skin for a day, a week, a month, a year, or maybe even a decade, would we be so quick to judge and condemn them at that point? Mat7:1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. Mat 7:2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Mat 7:3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Mat 7:4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Mat 7:5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. Among my many other talents and abilities, I am an electrician, and as such it’s my job to see that no one dies as a result of stupidity, due to my laziness or failing to follow the rules and laws. There is a code of laws and conduct that electricians are to follow, so that others are safe, it’s called the NEC,National Electrical Code book, and if followed, it will save lives. In life as a Christian, we also have a code of laws and conduct, and if followed, it, too will save lives. It is said that a fool runs his or her mouth,without regard to anyone’s feelings or well-being, based totally on what they see, and maybe hear second hand. It takes a bigger fool to jump on the bandwagon of the fault finder, never having personal knowledge of the targeted person, people, or project.

God Himself warns us to not be involved with such foolishness, and that is probably do to the fact that, we are to quick to judge, not having all the facts, and not having a personal knowledge of… We need more than anything else to take a truth-line based examination of whom or what we are, stop worrying about the other guy(s) or action(s). If we use God’s Word to examine ourselves, maybe we wouldn’t be so quick to judge others,and if you can’t find anything wrong with yourself, try asking God, I’m quite sure He is able to tell or show you of your personal wicked ways. Psa 139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me,and know my thoughts: Psa 139:24 And see if there be any wicked way in me,and lead me in the way everlasting. God didn’t make imperfect people, people did that and with a long line of personal agendas, that proves the point. We learn from what we see and hear, and if what we see and hear is not one hundred percent God based perfect, then the result is flawed. In order for us to come out of our humanistic responses, we seriously need the mind of Christ, but it’s not something that is going to come over night, we must read and study. For those of us who say, I don’t need to read or study God’s Word, because He has written His Word in our hearts, surprises, it doesn’t work that easily. Our hearts through time have turned to stone, and it’s going to take the chisel of God’s love, and the firmness of His Word to break up our stony heart sand make them flesh. We have to seriously take stock of ourselves and stop leaning to our understanding, repent of our wicked ways and thinking. We also need to develop an intimate relationship with God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Like His Word says, we need to seek Him with our whole heart, mind, soul, and strength, or else we fail and fall, and are prone to jumping on the wrong bandwagon, Amen!!!

3 AREAS OF FOCUS FOR FULFILLING THE HIGHEST CALL OF LEADERSHIP YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN BY AWARD WINNER KAREN ZEIGLER

Stephen Covey once said “Most people think of leadership as a position and therefore don’t see themselves as leaders.” Yet as Christians we forget we have been given the highest title of leadership that can be given, that of Ambassador. The definition of an Ambassador is a diplomatic official of the highest rank, sent by one sovereign or state to another as its resident representative.

As a high ranking representative the Ambassador holds a lot of power and control in order to represent their country well. God bestowed this highest rank of leadership on each and every Christian in 2 Corinthians 5:20. The duties He has bestowed upon us is to represent His Kingdom and the power we have been given to do so is the same power that raised Christ from the dead (Ephesians 1:19-20) While our responsibilities as Ambassador’s are many I believe the 3 primary roles are very similar to that of an Ambassador for our country. Those roles are 1. Protect the citizens of their country. For us that means protecting fellow believers. This may be protecting their very life but it also could be protecting their reputation by speaking only good things about them, protecting them from the attack of the enemy through prayer, protecting believers in danger of persecution around the world through supporting missions and many other things. We are also specifically called to protect the poor, widow and orphans on God’s behalf. 2. Support prosperity. The definition of prosperity is to help establish successful, flourishing and thriving conditions. As leaders how we do this can take place in many ways. The giving of our time to mentor others, volunteering in our churches or communities. Using our talents in running a business or organization that provides jobs and prosperity to individuals and a community. Or provide financial resources to support churches and charities in our communities. 3. Work for peace. Internationally this can be a fight against terrorism, the drug trade and international bribery. For us I believe it is two fold – reconciling the unbelievers with God (2 Corinthians 5:18) and keeping peace among believers (Ephesians 4:3) Understanding our leadership role as Ambassador is a start. But carrying out our responsibilities as Ambassador is how we please God. So as you look at your calendar, your check book, your relationships how are you doing as God’s representative? When we represent well, we live well.

Your turn to chime in â&#x20AC;&#x201C; what other ways do you find we are to be Ambassadors?

MARRIAGE IS A MINISTRY.............AWARD WINNER JESSIE STRIGGLE

WHY ARE SO MANY MARRIAGES IN TROUBLE TODAY??????? Let's go in. Lack of communication is Number 1. We don't take the time to talk to and listen at each other. We talk at each other in passing; trying to get our point across w/o hearing; nor caring what the other is saying. saying cruel, hurtful things - tearing each other down. WORDS THAT WE CAN'T TAKE BACK. Lack of money (job) is deal breaker to many; but it shouldn't be. My God; if a man loses his job - so many women instead of encouraging their husbands and letting him know - WE WILL BE ALRIGHT - I KNOW YOU ARE TRYING. NO!!! These women run and tell EVERYBODY; that never wanted to see your marriage work in the first place. Now strife is stirred up, bitterness, anger, ignoring him, talking down to him and even leaving the bedroom. GOD MADE MAN THE HEAD OF THE HOUSE - HE IS A KING IN HIS CASTLE - MONEY OR NO MONEY. Your friends want you to throw him out so they can catch him before he hits the ground. PLEASE WAKEUP!!!! They tell you what they wouldn't put up with; yet would and have put up with more than you ever did.

My husband lost his job when we just had our second son; thereby NO income in the house - I NEVER EVEN TOLD MY FAMILY; I saw my husband slipping into despression ; now I must rise to the occasion of being the stronger one and encourage him; help him in anyway I could. Surely, we made it and surely he got a better job. New baby, new car everything was on him and he never complained. We coast along for awhile and then we were back on top. MY GOD - LORD MERCY; YOUR HUSBAND MUST FEEL RESPECT AND HONOR FROM YOU. Keep the world out of your marriage and keep God in it. MARRIAGE IS A MINISTRY - YES INDEED!!!! People NOW are NOT willing to work on their marriage - quick to throw their hands up and say "WHATEVER, I AM OUT". Yes good sex is important in a marriage; but NOT the major importance. So when you are in the early part of your marriage, jumping each other bones every other second - then it slows down. THAT IS THE LUSTFUL PART OF THE FLESH and that is ALL good. The true LOVE of your marriage must endure the test of time. You really don't know a person until you live together; I don't care how long you dated. Now you nit-pic every thing. Everything bothers you. You are getting to know each other. WAIT A MINUTE don't try to change a person - ask God to change you. You married for better or worse - WELL WHERE IS THE LOVE - WHERE DID IT GO!! If this marriage be of God; it should and will stand the test of time. If it is Not of God and you are the CALL of God - then surely God will rip it apart. NO - the other person may NOT be on your level in your walk with God; but you must see them coming forward in him. NO; you do NOT wait until the other one get to your level before you go forward in God. If they be a hindrance to distract you from purpose and destiny; GOD ALWAYS GETS HIS MAN/WOMAN - there is NO amount of prayer that can make the Lord bless mess.

Too many wanted to get married just to have sex - then the thrill was gone; nothing in common - it's over. Too many want to marry seeing ALL the red flags; yet believing YOU can change them or God will change them. I have heard woman say - I AM GOING TO CHANGE HIM!!!!!!!!! WOE and I haven't seen it happen YET!!!! When you two rise in the morning - hold hands (YES BEFORE GOING TO BATHROOM TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH) at your bedside and Bless the Lord right then and there.

We get so many prayer request for marriages - I promised I would write this note. NO TAGS. Gracious Father I bow before you in great repentance and humility; as I lift of the Marriages that you have ordain; that you will teach them love, patience, kindness to their mates. Heavenly Father for we know what you have joined together - let no man tear apart; for we know no man can if it be of you. Father we cry out today for the men to be blessed with jobs to take care of their families; and we cry out today that the women seek your face O Lord and NOT that of the carnal mind. We pray restoration in ALL marriages of you Lord, MAKE THEM FALL IN LOVE ALL OVER AGAIN, ALL THINGS NEW, seeing each other thru loving eyes and Heavenly Father would you see fit to bless the marriages with the fruit of their loins. Give them children; so many desire to have children if it is your will - in Jesus Name I pray - Amen and Amen.

final word - do all the things you did to get each other; court each other; dress up for each other -PRAY TOGETHER!!! from the desk of AJS

"GOD'S 'LOVE CONQUERS ALL!" WRITTEN BY : AWARD WINNER PROPHETESS SISTER MARY BOLDEN (Scriptures< Romans 35-39) “WHO SHALL SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF CHRIST SHALL TRIBULATION, OR DISTRESS, OR PERSECUTION, OR FAMINE, OR NAKEDNESS, OR DANGER OR SWORD?”

AS IT IS WRITTEN, "FOR YOUR SAKE WE ARE BEING KILLED ALL THE DAY LONG;. WE ARE REGARDED AS SHEEP TO BE SLAUGHTERED. NO, IN ALL THESE THINGS, PRESENT NOR THINGS TO COME, NOR POWERS NOR HEIGHT NOR DEPTH, NOR ANYTHING ELSE IN ALL CREATION WILL BE ABLE TO SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD..

FOLKS, THERE ARE WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS IN OUR THIRD WORLD ORDER COUNTRIES AND THERE SEEMS TO BE NO END TO THEM. ONCE ONE ENDS , ANOTHER BEGINS. THE WAR IN IRAQ, FOR INSTANCE, AND NOW IN ISRAEL, ETC. THEY ARE JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE SIGNS OF THE END TIMES. BUT, WHAT WE , AS CHRISTIANS, NEED TO RECOGNIZE AND ACKNOWLEDGE IS...THAT NO MATTER WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY, WE ARE MORRRRE THAN CONQUEROURS IN CHRIST JESUS, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR HIM

HALLELUJAH

PRAISE

FOR I AM CONVINCED THAT NEITHER DEATH NOR LIFE, NEITHER ANGELS NOR DEMONS, NEITHER THE PRESENT NOR THE FUTURE, ....NOTHING...I MEAN NOTHING NOR ANYBODY ON EARTH CAN SEPARATE US FROM THE LOVE OF GOD THERE HAS BEEN THREATS OF NUCLER WARS AND YET GOD HAS NOT ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN AS MAN PREDICTED. THERE ARE LOTS OF GUN SHOOTINGS HERE IN THE USA AND MANY INNOCENT ONES HAVE BEEN KILLED JUST BY DRIVE BY SHOOTINGS AND YET , GOD STILL LOVES US AND HAS THE LOVED ONES WHO HAVE GONE ON MUCH TOO SOON, IN OUR ESTIMATION OF TIME, WRAPPED IN HIS LOVING ARMS. THEY CAN NO LONGER FEEL PAIN OR AGONY DOWN HERE ON THE EARTH. FOR GOD KNOWS BEST. THERE IS A REASON FOR EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN THE WORLD AND A REASON WHY HE ALLOWS SOME OF OUR YOUNG PEOPLE TO DIE YOUNG IN ORDER THAT HE MAY TAKE THEM OUT OF THIS EVIL WORLD.

THE ONES OF US WHO ARE LEFT BEHIND, IT'S BECAUSE HE STILL HAS WORK FOR US TO DO. WE ARE HERE FOR HIS PURPOSE AND HIS PURPOSE ALONE IS WHAT WE SHOULD BE FOUND DOING. AND IF WE ARE ON OUR DUTY POST, DOING ALL THAT THE LORD ANNOINTED US AND APPOINTED US TO DO, WE SHOULD HAVE NO FEAR. FOR GOD HAS NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR, BUT OF LOVE, AND OF POWER, AND OF A SOUND MIND. HE CHOSE US WHEN WE DIDN'T KNOW TO CHOOSE HIM HE GAVE US HIS POWER FROM ON HIGH TO BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL. HE ACTIVATES THAT POWER WHENEVER WE ARE WILLING TO YIELD TO IT AND THEN WE KNOW OURSELVES TO BE THE VICTOR, NOT THE VICTIM

IT MAY SEEM LIKE SOMETIMES THAT NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE NOR SHOW LOVE TO YOU WHEN YOU HAVE GIVEN SO MUCH IN LOVE TO THAT PERSON OR PERSONS. IT MAY BE YOUR HUSBAND WHO DOESN'T SEEM TO SHOW YOU THE SAME LOVE THAT YOU SHOW HIM AND NEED FOR HIM TO SHOW YOU. IT MAY BE THOSE HATERS ON YOUR JOB WHO ARE JUST SO JEALOUS OF YOU THAT THEY CAN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE THAT YOU ARE AN ASSET TO THE JOB AND THAT YOU HAVE SHOWN THEM THE LOVE OF JESUS. THEY MAY BE ENVIOUS OF YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE ALWAYS SMILING AND WISHING THEM TO HAVE A GREAT DAY, ALSO. BUT , THEY PREFER DARKNESS OVER THE LIGHT AND REFUSE TO BE DRAWN TO THE LOVE LIGHT OF JESUS IN YOU. DOES THAT TAKE HIS LOVE FROM YOU ? NO!

NO MATTER HOW MUCH HATRED SURROUNDS YOU, PEOPLE OF GOD, ALWAYS REMEMBER THATGOD'S LOVE CONQUERS ALL HIS LOVE IS EVERLASTING AND IT IS UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. AGAPE' LOVE IS NOT LIKE THE WORLD'S LOVE THAT IS TEMPORAL LOVE. THERE ARE SO MANY WHO GET MARRIED AND SAY THEY LOVE ANOTHER, BUT NOT TOO LONG AFTER THEY START HAVING PROBLEMS AND SETS OF CIRCUMSTANCES ARISE, THEY FALL OUT OF LOVE. WELL, THAT WASN'T TRUE LOVE FROM THE BEGINNING. . BECAUSE TRUE LOVE IS AGAPE' AND WILL NEVER END LUST OF THE FLESH IS THE REAL REASON SO MANY FALL IN AND THEN OUT OF LOVE SO QUICKLY. THAT LUST OF THE EYES, THE PRIDE OF LIFE AND THE LUST OF THE FLESH IS NOT EVER GOING TO BE SATISFIED .

HOLD ON TO GOD'S LOVE. IT WILL CONQUER ALL LOVE IN CHRIST JESUS, PROPHETESS SISTER MARY BOLDEN

TESTIMONY:AWARC WINNER ANGEL FULKERSON

Recently, I opened an email that brought tears to my eyes as I read a letter that addressed me as an Honoree… a letter from the Board of Trustees of Shepherds Without Borders Lighthouse Bugle Global Outreach & African Voice In The Wilderness International. As I read thru the letter, I thought of how little money I have... how little worldly possessions I have… how the world views me… how this humble servant of God could be addressed as an Honoree for something so I said a little prayer for Bishop Liberty, a brother in Christ I met a few years back.

On occasion I have been blessed by invitation to share about Jesus through writing… and at other times, to pray… the two things God has richly blessed me with and I am always honored to share with my brother and these ministries God has so blessed him to be a part of. These ministries I have found are very aware of the gifts God works thru His people and they utilize and encourage brothers and sisters in their gifts, to walk in and use these gifts… not in just a small little community or church but further than the boundaries that they might normally reach… the world for Christ. Is this not what we should be doing but so often because of lack of funds, lack of ability, or even a lack of knowing there is a place outside of our own church and community we fail to reach as far as God would have…

BUT Bishop Liberty and these ministries help reveal God’s ability to do a work thru each of us in a greater measure than we can imagine, to touch lives with Jesus that we have not met---

to help make a change so that others, too, can lead even more people to know of a loving savior Jesus who if we believe in, will give us everlasting life rather than perishing. So here, I have come to know this man of God and these ministries who someone somewhere should award for their good works, here, they are awarding the very people they encourage to press forward with God… who they enlist to share the gospel in greater measure than before… and they chose me… even now, as I think about it…. my eyes well up with tears… they chose me to receive the degree of Masters of Arts Humanitarian in Theology award. Amazing! I wondered how could they choose me?! And then I felt the Holy Spirit say “God chose you… even before YOU were formed in your mother’s womb, I set you apart and ordained you,” (Jeremiah 1:5) and today He knew I would need a little more encouragement and thru this, I was encouraged greatly but there are times when we need not just encouragement but also a compliment. We hope the compliment comes from here or there but God knows the place He wants that compliment to come from, He knows the thing we need to press forward in His way for us and so it comes and we chose whether or not to accept the encouragement and compliment AND to give glory to whom it is due… to God be the Glory!!! The award was encouraging… the letter encouraging… and then in the letter was a “but also.” I was also honored as a “Global Mother of the Word.” NO!

I read it again and again… global… and a charge—a responsibility to pray and intercede… to basically hold the Word of God dear, to share it and to act on it so the world can see… but not just in a way for the world to see but that they would desire to have the same type relationship with God as I have… that they would see the love I so know God has for me and want to know it for themselves… not for material gain but just because God does so love us that He gave His only begotten Son Jesus that we might BELIEVE in Him… and there is so much to believe. I knew God shared these things with me to do… not that I have to but that He invites me to know Him--invites me to walk and talk with Him… invites me to join Him in what He is doing and I accepted time and again… but here, in writing from my Christian family who live far away from my little spot in the world, is a reminder again to walk with Him in such a way that my light so shines before men that they see the good works God does in and thru me, and they glorify HIM. As I read thru the final sentences, and I don’t know if they even realized this, but the words on this letter are written in white on red paper reminding me that the Blood of Jesus spills over our lives and the Word writes a new story as we walk with Him… may our lives continually reveal a love letter of Jesus for all to see. Thank you for blessing me with such an honor, but know that all the honor belongs to the LORD who continues to do a work in me, until Jesus returns. God bless you all. Love in Jesus Angel Fulkerson

WARNING TO THE BORN-AGAIN CHILD OF GOD: SATAN SENDS PEOPLE INTO YOUR LIFE TO DESTROY YOU! BY AWARD WINNER BONITA RICHIE

A truth that I have learned late in life by experience and by God's revelation is that satan sends people purposefully into your life and into my life. He always has and he always will as long as Jesus has us living on this earth. Satan assumes to know our flesh weaknesses and uses the deceits that have worked on us in the past in order to gain access to us.

He thinks he knows, based upon our past poor performances in life, the buttons to push that he thinks will illicit the same responses that we have exhibited in the past. The person he sends to us is to be used by the devil himself to destroy our lives, to destroy our children lives, to destroy our marriages, to destroy our families, to destroy our minds, to destroy our reputations and testimonies of God's saving power, and especially to destroy our faith in The LORD Jesus Christ. IF we have put to death our flesh nature as The Bible has commanded us to do, the devil finds that there are no buttons to push that work anymore. Does that cause satan to quit at his efforts? No!!!!! He realizes that the true Christian life is a very separated life, a persecuted and scorned life, and a very lonely life in many ways and that some professing Christianity depart from the faith of Jesus Christ. Those individuals thirst for worldly pleasures (sin) and return to the world citing the boredom and the stresses of being a true Christian as their justification for departing from the faith of The Living God and LORD Jesus Christ. Because the enemy of our souls cannot read minds, he has no way of knowing (except through observation of what a person has started listening to, reading, watching, etc.) if there is actually an open door for the one he is preparing to send in for the true Christian's destruction. Thus he tries over and over and over and over again during our lifetime here on earth to find a way to destroy us. When we think on death of the flesh nature, we must take a look at the dead. A dead body reacts to nothing. A person can stand cursing a corpse and there is no reaction from the dead body. A person can spit, slap, or even kick a corpse and there is no reaction from the dead. A person can say loving words to a corpse but will find there is no reaction from the dead. A person can try to tempt a corpse to sin and, once again, will find that there is no reaction from the dead. The list seems endless of what an individual could do to illicit a response from a corpse, but there would

never be a reaction from the corpse. Dead is dead is dead is dead.

Let us make all efforts, as born-again saved children of Almighty God, to put to death our flesh nature as The LORD Jesus Christ has commanded us to do. He has not suggested that we put our flesh nature to death. He has COMMANDED us to put it to death. Let us keep before our eyes His command: "Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:11 KJV) ~ "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin." (Romans 6:6-7 KJV) Evangelist Bonita Ann (Logsdon) Richie

APPOINTED TIME! AWARD WINNER CATERIN SKINNER

For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Habakkuk 2:3 Today I had the honor and privilege of being connected to an awesome Bible Study and Prayer. I as sat and listened with my spiritual ears I became convicted by the message. “Blessing delayed not denied”. While Scriptures were being read, I could hear God speaking to my innermost being. He is good for taking me/you all through His Word to minister to your spirit. God had spoken this passage of Scripture into my spirit 20 years ago. It’s wasn’t until today that I truly seen it with my spiritual eyes and not my natural eyes. It was brought to my attention how Noah did not complain about what he was going through nor did he remind God of his promises to him. WOW!!! I was so convicted because as I reflected back on the Word today. While washing dishes, it came in my spirit that so many of us are looking back on the days of our lives; while being young and restless; yet sometimes we are bold and beautiful. As the world turns, we only have one life to live only to end up in General Hospital.

Now think about these soaps, I am guilty of watching them all. This is why I can speak clearly of myself in this message. Reflecting back over my life and can see where God has brought me from after going around the mountain for 40 years. Complaining all the way just as the Israelites did as they went through their wilderness! So young and restless making all the wrong decisions, not bad choices I would say, just not thinking through the choices I made. While being bold and beautiful, I made a mess of the plans I had for myself not allow God’s thoughts / plans for me

to manifest. His thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give me a future and a hope. As the world was turning around me spinning out of control, finally I sought the Lord. Through much seeking and prayer through the Word of God with all my heart I finally got Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention and He listened to my cry and answered me. Sometimes we have to become literally incarcerated to become unimprisioned within our own minds. For me this was from prison to praise, from the pit to the palace. Because I have one life to live on this earth God placed me in His General Hospital (church) where He Jehovah- Rapha my Healer could heal my wounds and deliver me from the bondage I was held captive. During this appointed time upon my bed of afflictions God revealed to me in Ezekiel 16:4-14 4 And as for your birth, on the day you were born your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to cleanse you, nor rubbed with salt, nor wrapped in swaddling cloths. 5 No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you out of compassion for you, but you were cast out on the open field, for you were abhorred, on the day that you were born. 6 "And when I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said to you in your blood, 'Live!' I said to you in your blood, 'Live!' 7I made you flourish like a plant of the field.

And you grew up and became tall and arrived at full adornment. Your breasts were formed, and your hair had grown; yet you were naked and bare. 8 "When I passed by you again and saw you, behold, you were at the age for love, and I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your nakedness; I made my vow to you and entered into a covenant with you, declares the Lord GOD, and you became mine. 9 Then I bathed you with water and washed off your blood from you and anointed you with oil. 10I clothed you also with embroidered cloth and

shod you with fine leather. I wrapped you in fine linen and covered you with silk.11And I adorned you with ornaments and put bracelets on your wrists and a chain on your neck. 12 And I put a ring on your nose and earrings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head. 13 Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was of fine linen and silk and embroidered cloth. You ate fine flour and honey and oil. You grew exceedingly beautiful and advanced to royalty. 14 And your renown went forth among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through the splendor that I had bestowed on you, declares the Lord GOD. I ran from this passage of Scripture for years before I would stop and just read it so that God could do what only He could do. This brings me back to the passage of Scripture He makes everything beautiful in its time (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Allow God to breathe life back into your dry bones so that He may help you to trust Him and give you strength to do his will. There is strength through prayer for all that seek the Lord while He may be found of you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t miss out on your blessing because you are being disobedience to God will on your life. Blessing delayed but not denied. Amen

Prayer Lord Jesus, you are the true vines and our Abba-Father is the vine dresser. I ask that you would purge and prune us according to Your words which you have spoken to us that we may bear much fruit. You are the vine and we are the branches. Unless we abide in you and you in us we can do nothing apart from you. Lord you said that we are to be Your disciples, help us to discipline our spirit so that we yield to you along. Align, Assign, Equip and Empower us for the task you have given us to do in Your

Kingdom. We give You, thanks, glory, honor, power, and all the praise for You alone are worthy to receive in Jesus’ Mighty Name. Amen!! Let everyone that has an ear hear what “thus says The Lord.” Amen Inspired by The Word of God Written by Catherin Skinner 07/15/2014

The Mountain Of God : Delia Thumbadoo Scripture demonstrates most effectively the power of one, of how God always sought and singled out one person to fulfill a mission. He chose Mary as the conduit to birth a Saviour; Moses to deliver a nation; Abraham to birth a nation; a fisherman to evangelize the globe and sure enough He can use you and I in like manner. Not only did this showcase Gods power and glory through these vessels, but also incurred and credited these faithful servants with Gods righteousness, Favour and Might. You see this was not a one sided transaction. God proposed and they accepted. Despite the vague and sometimes ludicrous instruction - they obliged, by faith they rose to the challenge. Once they stepped from the known into the unknown, they unlocked the key of faith, the key to the impossible made possible.

The union and workings of God and man, Divine and human on display, forever evidencing our dependency and need for God in our personal lives and to impacting the world through His prompting, His leading and His sufficiency's. Now Moses kept the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian; and he led the flock to the back or west side of the wilderness and came to Horeb or Sinai, the mountain of God. Exodus 3:1. Moses undertook an ordinary chore, unsuspecting of what was to come; Moses, like us, was just going about minding his business, when lo and behold God had other plans for Him. I can't help but notice the parallel between him (Moses) and David, they both kept sheep, but notice how Moses had to lead these sheep through the wilderness, how uncanny that he was being 'prepped' for an undertaking far too great for him to imagine? When you come to the mountain of God, then you are bound to meet with Him, to hear from Him and this occasion was no exception, in fact it was exceptional! The Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush; and he looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, yet was not consumed. You have to marvel at Gods ingenuity in grabbing our attention; Moses was visibly gobsmacked! "Moses!" God called, "here I am Lord" There's something distinct about hearing Gods voice, Scripture says, "My sheep listen for my voice, I know them and they follow me." "And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters and oppressors; for I know their sorrows and sufferings and trials. And I have come down to deliver them out of the hand and power of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a land good and large, a land flowing with milk and honey [a land of plenty]-to the place of Canaan. Now behold, the cry of the Israelites has come to Me, and I have also seen how the Egyptians oppress them.

Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring forth My people, the Israelites, out of Egypt. Exodus 3:7-10 These Scriptures are so power-packed with the heart of God, His love for His People, the fact that He sees our sufferings, He hears the cries and supplications of His people and His determination in rescuing and delivering them from the oppressor. What a marvelous consolation and assurance, God sees He hears and He answers. Surely He is our Rock, our Saviour, and our Deliverer. Friends do not be surprised if suddenly and out of the blue God hijacks your career, your leisure or retired lifestyle, for something big and pressing that grieves Him and needs urgent attention. Like Moses at best we're always going to feel inadequate and never equal to the task. But this call is different, we are just vessels through which His Divine workmanship flows. When God says, "Come now therefore and I will send you" - He has already validated, and singled you out for exactly what He desires to be done. The harvest is white, many suffering, captives are crying out to God for help and rescue and the answer is on its way in the form of you and I. Get ready for the unexpected, unsuspecting call of God on your life. We go in His Name! Amen.

AWARD WINNER KATHI MACIAS : DEVOTIONAL And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.” Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. (Luke 22:41-43, NKJV). If you’re anything like me (and something tells me that’s the case since we all have the same Creator), you often find yourself fretting over why you haven’t seen an answer to a particular prayer. Is God not listening? Does He not care? Jesus is our perfect example in this instance. The One who truly had the Father’s ear and certainly had an urgent petition as He knelt in the garden just prior to His arrest did not insist God answer His request a certain way. In His humanity, Jesus did not look forward to the torture He was about to endure. As a result, He asked God to take it away from Him IF it was the Father’s will. And then He added, “Nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.” It was at that point of complete submission to God’s will that an angel came to strengthen Him.

Speaking for myself, I know that’s where the problem usually lies for me. I spend my time begging and pleading and even strong-arming God into answering my prayers according to my will rather than His, and then I wonder why an angel doesn’t appear from heaven to strengthen me. Peace evades me. Joy is but a memory. Can you relate yet? My favorite cartoon of all time is one of Dennis the Menace, kneeling at his bedside, his hands folded in prayer as he says, “I’m here to turn myself in.” When I’m struggling with yielding my will to God, the memory of such a simple cartoon can call me back to the place of submission. Dennis the Menace didn’t put any stipulations on his prayer; he knew he had done wrong and he was there to “turn himself in” and ask for mercy. That’s the stance we all need to assume (and maintain) when we come to God in prayer, whatever our petitions may be. The very fact that we call Him “Lord” should remind us that we must remain submitted to His will, for how can we call Him “Lord” if we’re still trying to run things ourselves? Anyone who has ever lived in a feudal situation knows that the “lord” is in charge and the subjects have no say. Thankfully, we who have received Jesus as our Savior have a loving and merciful Lord and don’t need to fear His will for us. Like Dennis the Menace, we simply have to come and present ourselves to Him, trusting that He will do what is best for us, exactly as He did for Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. I’m ready to turn myself in and get my peace and joy back, aren’t you? Maybe we’ll even be visited by an angel in the process. ***My two newest releases, The Singing Quilt and The 40-Day Devotional Challenge, are now available at the following online venues:

THE DYNAMICS OF FAITH Part 1

Award Winner Pastor Wole Gbogboade

Text: Heb. 11:1-6 Faith is the vessel to walk with God. It is a spiritual work that connects a child of God to operate in the realm of God with absolute trust. In v. 2, the Bible says by faith, the people of old obtained a good report. They were commended, recognized or appreciated for their work of faith. v. 3, by faith, God Himself formed everything in the universe- by His word of faith that is faithful. Isa.55:11; John 1:1-2. v. 4-6. Abel offered His sacrifice in righteousness and his blood still speaks even in death. By faith, Enoch walked with God and pleased God by his work of faith. Finally, the Bible says, without faith, it is impossible to please God. Why? God rewards those who diligently seek Him not seek things! v. 6.

. Since faith comes by hearing God’s word, it is imperative that we acknowledge the fact that faith is a spiritual language of God that can only come by His own word.

· Definition: Faith is seeking God, hearing God to walk with Him and trusting His word so much that you work in obedience without doubt.

· Therefore, faith is holding God by His word and trusting that He will do what He said. No one can initiate something for God. Our faith, according to the Lord, must be in God. Mark 11:22.We must not have faith in man or self or thing. The bible says, the armour of flesh must fail us. The horse is a vain thing in the day of battle.

“We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.” 1Thess.1:2-3

· In Thessalonica, Paul attested to the brethren work as one propelled by faith. They labour in love and endured in hope that God is able to reward their labour of love because they did it by faith. This is why Paul gave thanks to God for their work.

It is not borne out of selfishness, not men pleasing or eye-service but, it is God glorifying and selfless service. They were not after gains but just to serve God in a way that pleases Him. This is work of faith for which the men of old were commended.Heb.11:6

· David tried to build house for God. When he told Nathan the prophet, he said he should go ahead and do what was in his mind. But, God did not initiate it. God had to send the same prophet to him not to do it. 2 Sam. 7:1-17. God is the Author and Finisher of our faith. He starts something with us and only He can finish it. · Abraham so much trust God that he willingly offered Isaac when he heard God because he believed that God was able to raise Isaac since He had said he is the child of promise. Heb. 11:17-19. Even the conception of Sarah by Abraham both of whom were old is an evidence of their work of faith. Rom. 4:18-22.

· Unbelief is a detestable sin before the Lord in the Bible. Zachariah, a high priest incurred the wrath of God when he exhibited doubt concerning the prophecy of his son, John the Baptist. Luke 1:18-22. A lot of God’s people died in the wilderness Church because of unbelief. 1Cor.10:1-10. They could not enter into God’s rest because of unbelief. Heb. 2:1-4.The bible says those who doubt should not expect anything from the Lord. James 1:6-8.

Only believers will live by faith.

“For in the gospel, a righteousness from God is revealed, a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written, “the righteous shall live by faith.” Rom. 1:17.

· Faith is considered a manifestation of righteousness in the Bible. God sees His people who trust His word and do it by faith even if it sounds foolish or impossible. Rom. 4:20-24. Gal.3:11. The just shall live by faith. Whatsoever is not done faith is sin.Rom. 14:23. We walk by faith and not by sight. 2Cor. 5:7. · Warfare weapon is not complete without shield of faith. The bible says above all, put on the shield of faith to quench the fiery darts of the enemy. Eph. 6:17. To keep the faith, we must also fight the good fight of faith. 2Tim.4:7, 1Tim.6:12. We must contend for the faith according to Jude 3-4.

Really, there is virtually nothing we can do with God without faith. However, God takes us gradually in the journey of faith patiently until we mature. The word of God and the Spirit, that is word of faith and the Spirit of faith will tutor and build us up in the faith. Eph. 4:11-14. As we are taught and discipled by leaders in the five-fold ministry, our lives will continue to respond to the language and the way of faith just like Jesus raised His disciples. John 17:17, John 6:63.

“And what shall I say more? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah, of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.” Heb. 11:32-34 (Webster)

· Faith is by level as we grow in relationship with the Lord through obedience to the word and the Holy Spirit. The disciples were fearful but, at a time they asked the Lord to increase their faith. As they grew in the knowledge of Him, they not only became fearless, they were willing to lay down their lives for Him. Rev.12:11. Our faith in Christ must not just be for our material need (good as it is), it must grow to selfless service to take territories for God’s kingdom to expand with our lives on the line. 1Cor. 15:19.

“I honestly expect and hope that I will never do anything to be ashamed of. Whether I live or die, I always want to be as brave as I am now and bring honor to Christ. If I live, it will be for Christ, and if I die, I will gain even more.” Phil. 1:20-21. (CEV)

THE DYNAMICS OF FAITH Part 2

Award Winner Pastor Wole Gbogboade

Text: Gen. 28:13-15

· It is important to see examples of people that God had taken through a journey from flesh to faith. It will make the Bible real today as ever. Secondly, we will appreciate efficacy of the word of God in the lives of others who have gone through the journey of faith successfully and are now part of the “cloud of witness” watching as we are all running the race of eternal life. Thirdly, it will confirm to us that Jesus is the same yesterday, and today and forever.” We will take example from the Old and New Testament of the Bible.

· faith.

JACOB: His life is a typical example of a journey from flesh to

The name Jacob means supplanter, schemer and it is the epitome of crookedness. He exploited Esau, his brother’s hunger and carelessness to usurp his birthright. He also impersonated his brother with the connivance of their mother to steal Esau’s blessing from their father. His brother was so angry, he planned to kill him. Then, his parents sent him to Padan-aram to marry from the household of Laban. · The name Laban means white, purifier or brick builder. Jacob had no choice because he was running away from his brother not knowing he was in for a humbling experience. Laban was a type of discipler. Jacob was to serve Laban for seven years to marry Rachel, his heart throb. Unknown to him, he would have to spend the next twenty years serving Laban and only God would deliver him from Laban. After the agreed seven years, instead of Rachel, Leah was packaged together with a maid for Jacob whom he discovered the following morning. He complained, and Laban asked him to serve another seven years to marry Rachel. He spent fourteen years to marry, with a maid for each wife. After serving for about twenty years, God’s divine intervention got Laban’s wealth transferred to Jacob. Gen.31:6-16. Laban pursued him for seven days v.23 but, God delivered him. v.38-42. · Gen. 32:25, the supplanting Jacob got his name changed through divine intervention. · Gen. 33:3, Israel had to restitute to Esau by prostrating seven times with his hands raised up as a mark of total surrender to his brother and called Esau my Lord. This is a clear departure from his past lifestyle.

v. 3, 8. Esau embraced and kissed his brother and they both wept. He gave his brother Esau a kind of “trespass offering.” God made his brother Esau to love him instead of vengeance. Prov. 16:7. Now that he started to work with God by faith, his life has completely changed. Then, God blessed him and transferred the blessings of Abraham and Isaac to him, God became the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel. Gen.35:9-12. A life of faith is the life that God cherishes from His children because it is pleasing to Him. DISCIPLES OF JESUS: When the Lord first met His disciples and called them, they were just like any natural human beings who were out to please themselves as they grab as much as possible for themselves from the resources available in their nation so they could make enough wealth and probably gain recognition of men. They had no idea what the journey of faith in God looks like. · In John chapter 1 for instance, Jesus met Simon son of Jona and changed his name to Peter or Cephas. Simon means reed or rig that the wind can easily toss about. But Peter is petros in Greek meaning a stone (living stone 1Peter 2:4-5). However, the old nature in the life of Peter and the rest of disciples continued to manifest itself as they struggle in the journey of faith which is absolute trust in God and not in flesh. 2Cor. 5:7. The Lord patiently and steadfastly continue to teach and train or disciple them by living the life of faith and taking them out to see how He demonstrate faith in God’s word on a daily basis.

· Gradually, His disciples began to experience the work of faith in their own lives which began to build trust in the Lord and in His word. They also began to develop boldness like the righteous. Prov. 28:1. · Eventually, through intimacy, they got to know the Lord. Matt. 16:14-16.Faith will first bring you close to the Lord then, strengthen you in the Lord to make you do exploits for Him and for His glory. Dan.11:32 (b). · The same disciples who were ignorant men and so fearful could face the Jewish ruling council, the Sanhendrin to speak boldly in witnessing for Christ. Though they knew them to be ignorant men yet, they took cognizance of the fact that they have been with Jesus. Acts 4:13. Jesus Himself had testified before the Jews in their synagogue that His doctrine is of God when they were amazed that a carpenter could teach so much. John 7:14-16.

“Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;”1Thess. 1:3

· The people of old pleased the Lord with their work of faith. They are also found faithful because they worked by faith. This of course we know can only happen when you know God and His word. Then, you can recognize His voice and have developed faith to do what He says. Paul acknowledged the work of faith not of flesh that the Thessalonians rendered to God.

· Of course, when we work by faith, we don’t murmur, complain; we don’t do eye service or please men. Instead, we focus on God who will reward us, not man. Also, it is the work done by faith that pleases the Lord. Finally, a work done by faith brings satisfaction to us. And God reward those who diligently seek Him and please Him. “For without faith, it is impossible to please God…” Heb. 11:6 Word of Salvation Publication http://www.christfamilyevangelicalmission.com/ http://www.tyrannusschool.wordpress.com/ PO Box 7572, Ikeja (100001), Lagos.

The Authentic Kingdom Church : AWARD WINNER DR.ROBINSON

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES do not manipulate and operate in a lordship over the people, in a soulish emotional display of pseudo Christianity.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES do not manipulate and operate in a lordship over the people in a soulish extortion of the peoples offerings selling blessings.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES do not use the word "Kingdom" as seasoning to the message, especially when its time to collect the offering, with no real substance in the character or lifestyle of Kingdom citizenship.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES do not make merchandise of the people, selling Videos, CDs and Tapes with no real Kingdom substance, theology and understanding of God's genuine Kingdom agenda, in the messages they are offering to the people.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES do not focus on emotional, psychotic, euphoric displays of depravity and need which has been the aim of the tradition of preaching from preachers who preach traditionally.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES have made the transition from religion and tradition to relationship and victory. Kingdom terminology is not used to season their messages in a further attempt to manipulate the emotional needs of the people.

Authentic KINGDOM LEADERS know the difference and have made a commitment to change even if it means that their flocks will dwindle, and they will have to suffer the loss of what they've built.

What greater testimony of a genuine KINGDOM LEADER than to be one who exercises the courage to change, even at the risk of losing what he or she has built, considering this; Lest the Lord build the house, they that build it labor in vain.

Authentic KINGDOM CHURCHES are established by authentic KINGDOM LEADERS who are wholly, holily submitted to the sovereignty of the King, neither seeking to manipulate the people and rebuking and reproving those who do.

There is only one true Church to which we are all to aspire to be and that is a KINGDOM CHURCH driven by the King who manifest the Kingdom in all the citizens that submit themselves to Him that through the Holy Spirit we together enjoy righteousness, peace and joy, all that the Kingdom is, in every measure and provision, as we properly comprehend and apprehend that which the Father has purposed to apprehend us.

Are you really Kingdom, or are you operating in religious pretense calling what you do as being Kingdom? Courage will answer the question and make the changes necessary.

CHRISTIANS IN IRAQ FLEE THEIR HOMES AFTER THEIR LIVES WERE THREATEN BY THE NEW MUSLIM LEADER OF MOSUL !!!

BAGHDAD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The message played over loudspeakers gave the Christians of Iraq's second-largest city until midday Saturday to make a choice: convert to Islam, pay a tax or face death. By the time the deadline imposed by the Islamic State extremist group expired, the vast majority of Christians in Mosul had made their decision. They fled. They clambered into cars -- children, parents, grandparents -- and headed for the largely autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq or other areas protected by the Kurdish security forces.

Their departure marks the latest -- and perhaps final -exodus of Christians from the city, emptying out communities that date back to the first centuries of Christianity, including Chaldean, Assyrian and Armenian churches. Iraq was home to an estimated 1 million Christians before the 2003 U.S.-led invasion that ousted Saddam Hussein. Since then, militants have frequently targeted Christians across the country, bombing their churches and killing clergymen. Under such pressures, many Christians have left the country. Church officials now put the community at around 450,000. Most of Mosul's remaining Christians fled when the Islamic State group and an array of other Sunni militants captured the city on June 10 -- the opening move in the insurgents' blitz across northern and western Iraq. As a religious minority, Christians were wary of how they would be treated by hard-line Islamic militants. For those Christians who remained in the city, the order first made over loudspeakers on Thursday and later in leaflets passed out on the streets made clear their status under the extremist group's rule.

"When the Islamic State people took over Mosul weeks ago, they were nice to us at first and they used to knock our door and tell us that they mean no harm to the Christians in Mosul and they even gave us a mobile number just in case we are offended by anybody," Sahir Yahya, a Christian and government employee from Mosul, said Saturday. "This changed two days ago. The Islamic State people revealed their true savage nature and intention." Yahya fled with her husband and two sons on Friday morning to the town of Qaraqoush, where they have found temporary lodging at a monastery. "I know a lot of Christian families that left Mosul. We will always want to return to our houses and pray in our churches in Mosul, and eventually we will return, but not under the rule of the terrorist Islamic State," she said. In Mosul, the Islamic State group has gradually imposed its strict interpretation of Shariah law. The militants banned alcohol and painted over street advertisements showing women's faces, for example, but have held off on strict punishments. More recently, the group began seizing the houses of Christian and Shiite Muslim families who fled Mosul and gave some of them to Sunni families uprooted from other areas, residents said. Still, the edict calling on Christians to convert, pay tax or face death took many in the community by surprise.

"I went to the Islamic State religious court to make sure that the statement is authentic, and the man there told me that I should leave my house, car, money and properties behind," said Maan Abou, a 45-year-old retired army officer. On Friday, Abou left his home and washing machine repair shop in Mosul behind and headed for Kirkuk with his wife and four children, as well his own parents and his sister's family. "My wife and daughters wore the Islamic headscarf in order to deceive the Islamic State people at the checkpoints and make sure that our money and mobiles were not confiscated," he said. "All that I want is to return to the city that I grew up in and that I still have nice memories of. I have strong faith that we will return sooner or later because the cruel rule of Islamic State will not last forever.

According to Wikipedia â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Christians of Iraq are considered to be one of the oldest surviving continuous Christian communities in the world. The vast majority are Eastern Aramaic-speaking ethnic Assyrians, Armenians, Arabs, Kurds and Turcomanextant also. In Iraq, Christians numbered about 1,500,000 in 2003, representing just over 5% of the population of the country.

They numbered over 1.4 million in 1987 or 8% of the population.[1] After the Iraq War, it was estimated that the number of Christians in Iraq had dropped to less than 450,000 by 2013[2] - with estimates as low as 200,000.[3] Chaldean Catholics form the biggest group among the Christians of Iraq.[4] Christians live primarily in Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Arbil and Kirkuk and in Assyrian towns and regions such as the Nineveh Plains in the northâ&#x20AC;?!
