@Knittinggrace We avoid confrontation. We share the Gospel, pray and mentor new disciples. Release them to expand the Kingdom by sharing their stories, heal the sick and baptize those who believe.
It is not a good idea to meet in the same place at same time continuously.
No 1. Mistake in the incident I mentioned.
The youngsters who disturbed the meeting misbehaved with the women. According to the law they should have filed a complaint against the attackers to the authorities.
They should not break the law.
Protecting your own and counter attacking are two different aspects.
Jesus didn't allow Peter to use his 'licensed gun' at the Garden before He was arrested.
1st century believers suffered confiscation of their property gladly.
Love your enemies is the command (not kill).
We encourage believers to Pray in all situations. Pray for miraculous protection, Divine intervention and covering under the blood of Jesus.
Sharing today excerpts from Brother Yun's story. Please r
@Lanka4Jesus oh, that is awful! I never knew that. That does create a big problem. I will pray for pure water.
@Knittinggrace Sorry, for not responding. Busy on a new mission. (We are taught to respond in love).
😢 Praying for survivors if any and for the families of all those who were on board. Lord, please teach us to number our days and for Your glory! In Jesus' name I pray, AMEN. 🙏 🙏 🙏
I got a prayer request today originally from a Finnish brother (Risto) about the war in Ukraine. The following is my translation (and I've added those in parentheses):
"The Russian troops have started to deport Ukrainians to Russia from the areas they have conquered. This same thing happened also during the Finnish Winter War (against Sovietunion), when the Finnish warprisoners were deported to Siberia (into labour/concentration camps).
Only God can stop this. Let us pray that God will intervene and stop this, and also that only God's will will happen in the Ukranian war and not the will of the rulers of this world."
I found a link about how Ukrainians are being deported to Russia:

These Ukrainian Christians are my heroes. Most people would be scared to death if they would be in the same situation - in between two Russian frontlines. They don't deny reality (they are in contact with the military). And they don't deny the Biblical reality.
