"RE:  Can we look for clues when predictions are given?"


 

I would like to personally defend John Zachary since I know him to be a passionate follower of the Lord of the Universe, Jesus Christ.  Zachary wrote me once to say that the reason he has the references to Nostradamus, astrology and the occult on his website is to draw in unsaved people looking for enlightenment.  He thought that he could draw people in with things that might interest the lost in order to witness to them the salvation found only in the Lord Jesus.  His website is very apologetic oriented.  (defending the faith)

Now, Zachary is dedicated to writing and distributing gospel tracts to Muslims in Africa in hopes of converting the unsaved there.  Zachary is going passionately about His father’s business.

Here is information on how to get involved with his ministry which is truly spreading the Gospel in a world of Darkness:

New Tract to be Printed in Nigeria and Cameroon

I have completed the new tract. I truly like it because the archaeological evidence uncovered in the past 150 years give us enough data to take the position that Muhammad was deceived.  Consider the following quote from the new tract:
_____________
 "Based on ancient artifacts and .... laws of probability support that Jesus was nailed to the cross at the 99.998% confidence level. (only 2 chances in 100,000 of being wrong due to random error).
Muhammad lived 600 years after Jesus and is the only person to make a unique claim of Jesus not dying on the cross. Muhammad said the Christians based their belief in Jesus’ death on conjecture. However, artifacts dug up in the 20th century support the conjecture began with Muhammad (at the 99.998 confidence level). The decision to follow Muhammad requires blind faith with only 2 chances in 100,000 of being correct about Jesus (What about other Muslim beliefs)?

_____________
The evidence support this claim are the
1) the ossuary (burial box) of Caiphas, the High Priest
2) the ossuary of Alexander, son of Simon of Cyrene
3) the ossuary of James the son of Joseph, the brother of Jesus
4) the Pontius Pilate Inscription
And multutides of other artifacts that tie the ancient world together with the Christian faith.
Perhaps the biggest news to support the Christian faith is the recent testing and analysis of the James Ossuary.  I recently received this update from Biblical Archaeology Review. The statement of Dr. Krumbein support that the ossuary is authentic. Below is the referenced report in the tract.
"Preliminary Report through the Biblical Archaeology Society, dated May 16, 2006, entitled, “External Expert Opinion on Three Stone Items” composed by Prof. Dr. Dr. hc. mult. Wolfgang E. Krumbein and Carl von Ossietzky, University of Oldenburg, Germany, dated September 2005."
I will send out an updated report about this new finding in the near future.  The report is due to the fact that Obed Golan is on trial for allegedly forging the inscription, "James the son of Joseph the brother of Jesus"  However this new evidence will most likely turn the trial around.  Perhaps the IAA (Israeli Antiquities Authority) is responsible for tampering with the ancient artifact. A very serious charge.

You can download and save the file to your C-drive. Permission to print and use the tracts from your computer are given on the website.
Please keep praying for the following areas. I have received reports of the tracts being used in Muslim areas.  Please pray for people using these tracts in Burkina Faso (French speaking), Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon (French speaking), Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zambia, and Equatorial Guinea (Spanish speaking).
Finally, we are in dire need of funds to print the tracts in Nigeria and Cameroon.  Fifty churches in Douala, Cameroon are using the tracts to evangelize this city of 2.8 million.  The funds are now gone.
There is a lot going on in Africa.  Here is a praise report and prayer request out of Faso-Burkina. These workers were given tracts and books to aid them in working with the people in Burkina Faso (located to the North of Nigeria, sahara desert region).

We have a glaring testimony of the conversions of the Bobos in xxx-city blotted out-xxx near xxx-city blotted out-xxx. Pioneers Burkina is presently working among this ethnic group. Definitely this is a quite challenging task.This is a small village with two mosques. The chief and the Imam has outrightly refused Church planting efforts and Christian evangelistic programs in their community. Notwithstanding we have gotten seven indigenous members of this village.They do come to town for our Discipleship Programs and new converts class.We are presently negotiating for a place of worship in or near this community.

  1. A donation of $5 a month will print 35 tracts each month ( 420 tracts a year ). Although this may seem like nothing, it is actually very significant when you consider eternity and that the saving of one soul is worth more than all the wealth of the earth since the very beginning of time to the very end of time. In God's eyes, one soul coming to Christ is like the entire world came to the LORD. A party like you never dreamed occurs.    :)
  2. A donation of only $10 a month will print 70 tracts each month ( 840 tracts a year ). 
  3. $15 a month will help distribute 1,260 tracts in a year.
  4. $20 monthly = 1,680 tracts each year;
  5. $50 monthly = 4,200 tracts each year.

Thanks
