Bible Zone: Enter with wonder!

Our dedication is to Jehovah our Salvation, Jesus the Christ our Lord and our God. This same dedication is by HIS work in us as we move at HIS direction in Zambia, Africa. Holiness by HIS Grace, the gift of eternal life in Jesus, is our desire for the Tribal People of Africa; that they may turn to HIM receiving forgiveness, remission of sin, just as we have received according to the Scripture.

Tragedy to triumph


My dear friend, Pastor Kebby Malamo, was beaten and left for dead this week. I have known him since July 2000. I walked with him in the bush, working with him in an all night Bible Conference the first time I met him.

We were together when the first penetration to Kooma area was made. There is a Baptist Church there now under the ministry the Lord has given us.

He is recovering and while he is recovering, there were several that came to Christ today at Church where Kebby serves on Pastoral staff with a dear Missionary friend of mine that founded that same Church. I know, I was there. I saw tragedy turn to triumph as several men came forward receiving Jesus the Sovereign Savior.

Take that you old Devil! Jesus is still King and still has all power, and whether we live or die we are the Lord's, "For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living". We are with Jesus, who turns tragedy to triumph, to HIS honor and glory.

Kebby, the Lord raise you up to continue the fight! "Onward Christian soldiers, marching as to war, with the cross of Jesus going on before. Christ the Royal Master, leads against the foe...at the sign of triumph, Satan's host doth flee; on then Christian Soldiers on to victory..." So onward Brother Kebby, on with Christ, do not give place to the Devil! I gave you a Bible, but Jesus gave you life, HIS life!

Your loving Brother in Christ,
Phil
