PREPARING FOR MISSION TO INDIA AND PAKISTAN

The Pakistan Christian Ministry went to those un evangelized, tribal region where the population is still following primitive idolatrous religions, after prayer the Lord had guided to proclaim his message of salvation to the lost ones, all praise and glory to be holy name that many accepted him their Lord and saviour.

I would be gladly shares this information that their last evangelistic missionary tour to the un-evangelized tribal and remote areas in the State of Sindh. The Lord has blessed us and strengthened them in the proclamation of his word of salvation among un-believers and had confirmed the Lord’s presence by showing signs and wonders. Many un-believers had accepted him as their Lord, saviour and experienced his presence in their lives all the Glory to be the Holy Name of the Lord.

The Ministry and Faith-With-You Christian Ministries will be evangelist the needs to be expanded and for that we do need your prayer and practical co-operation in order to facilitate the "Soul Saving Mission and Great Commission to be share”.

They don’t have any facilities like hospital, schools, community houses, shelter houses or churches. They drink pond's water that is so polluted. We want to open skill-training centers for them so they can be trained with this effort we can save these people from their rulers those who misbehaved with them (Adultery with wives and daughters).

Secondly, I received a couple urgent invitations to a few churches and Christian Ministries to preach the Word of God to the church members and the villages. The places are Kerala at South India, Tamil Nadu at East South India and Gujarat at West North India. Most of the Indian pastors heard about my short-coming to India, which I don’t know…how they get my contact. It is a great surprise as I received calls and emails from them.

Book of Number 7 v 4 - 5 : Then the Lord said to Moses, “Receive their gifts and use these oxen and carts for the work of the Tabernacle. Distribute them among the Levites according to the work they have do’.

Book of Number 6 v 24 - 26 : May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favour and give you his peace.

God Bless!

Blessing,

SHORT MISSION TRIP IN CAMBODIA

In October 15th - 19th, 2007, I was in Cambodia and planning to renew my tourist visa for Thailand, end up I went to evangelism to the people.

When I was in Siam Reap, I share the gospel to the Guest House owner, Bro. Sophat (Cambodian) and he accepted the Christ, willing to go church every Sunday to listen to the sermons. Praise the Lord On His Mighty Work. Then I shared with Bro. Akira (Japanese) when we were hanging out together. Come to Sis. Belen (Peru, catholic), I opened the song of Praise and Worship, she love the music and I share the Word of God to her. Amazing, the Lord use me during the trip.

Then I departed from Siam Reap, continue my journey to Phnom Penh. You can see the photos around. In Cambodia, people are very poor and very few are very rich. I find out a way to help them but need the assistance from an International NGO to co-ordinate with the Government of Cambodia.

The problems that missionary failed and slow due to lack of funds, as God give the wisdom to us, we need to use it wisely. Without resources and profits, how can we contribute to the mission funds but now I have the solutions for all.

On the October 19th, 2007, I left Phnom Penh by bus and I met a Cambodian brother whom also a High School teacher. I share the gospel to him and he want to accept Christ immediately. Praise the Lord! Moreover, he is having a sore throat, the Lord heal him directly after I prayed for him.

On the same time, I also share the gospel to a young Sis. Hlobilova (Czech) as she tried to find peace while she committed many sinful and lost. Then I told her that the Lord loves her and you will find the peace from the Lord if you accept the Lord. Then she immediately accepted after I prayed for her. She felt comfortable and she opening the heart to the Lord. Halleluyah! The Holy Spirit also touched the British, Bro. Scott (also a classmate to my church director). Believe me the Lord move everywhere.

FIRST MISSION IN THAILAND

I’m still trying to settle down in Bangkok to be a tent-maker here for 6 - 8 months but a bit tough here due to visa, financial and a shelter. However, if the Lord’s called me to be here, I must put full trust to the Lord + build the stronger faith. My tourist visa will be expire on October 19th, 2007 and intend to take a short trip to Cambodia or Laos and renew my visa in the border on October 16th or 17th 2007.

Come to the synagogue in Thailand, I had a long email discussion (unable to reach him by phone or meet him) with Rabbi Yosef (the chief in Thailand). He is not ready to open the door of synagogue here for me to attend the Shabbat service (like our Sunday service, they have it on Friday evening) and no further development. I was advice by the Rabbi Ovadyah from Jerusalem, don’t give up as they will keep rejecting you at least 3 times…he believe that God called me to do the big tasks here like a prophet work but learn first.

Yesterday, I met one of the Rabbi Chan (Chinese Jews) in the evening as I waited for him almost 4 hours. After our 30 minutes private discussion, he would like to teach me about the Judaism but his time in business and family commitment is very tight schedule. Like Rabbi Ovadyah said “don’t give up” and Chief Rabbi Feld said the same word”.

Now I am still currently renting Guest House in Rama Nine Road and the price of the room is Baht 135 (RM 14+) per night. Bro. Charles (my housemate) from Myanmar, he is willing to take me to the recent found lost Tribes of Israel (http://www.bneimenashe.com) in between Myanmar, Bangladesh and India. The Ben Menashe unable to go back to Jerusalem due to many reasons as follow;

- that the Israeli government is hell bent on destroying Israel in the spirit of, what I believe is anti-Messiah
- they persecute the religious Jews who believe in possessing the Land and developing it as Torah commands
- they hate with a vengeance and oppose the Jewish Settlers who settle the Land as Torah commands
- they oppose the settlement and Aliyah of religious Jews, never mind Zionistic 10-Tribers who believe that they must assist Judah in settling the Land. They will oppose such Return with all their powers.
- they do NOT accept and do not entertain any reminders that God and His Torah requires such settling of the Land. To them, settling the so- called "occupied territories" is a political danger to the peaceful existence of Israel. Any challenge of their wishes, will land you with a one-way ticket OUT of the Land, never to return. And we have seen this happening, even from Rabbinic quarters!

They are record on the practical implications, eg. a 10-Triber family tries to settle in Israel. They are against converting to Judaism. So, they have a roll-over 3 months visa only. They cannot belong to the State pension fund. Their children don't integrate with the Israeli children. They can not easily set up businesses. They are not allow to take employment, except voluntary employ with no income, etc. They remain "strangers" in the Land that they want to be fully part of, their 'Home' based on Torah and Bible! This is NOT HaShem's Will. Hence Ezekiel 37 says He wants to make ONE Nation of the two. A nation needs a government, immigration control, a Society to run and maintains, an economy, etc. A left over of Christian education, i.e. that "we are all going to play the Harp in Heaven" is probably responsible for the lack of understanding amongst many returning 10-Tribers, that the Kingdom of God, like any other kingdom this side of Eternity, is a PRACTICAL PHYSICAL Society. A Nation amongst the nations - though religiously separated and different. The rest is the same: economics, government, society, army, schools, university, hospitals etc. We still not in Heaven yet.

I am working closely with Kol Ha Tor Project (http://www.kolhator.org.il) from Jerusalem and a brief introduction about For proclaiming the prophesied Restoration of the 2 estranged Houses of Israel (Judah and 10-Israel, the latter also referred to as Joseph or Ephraim). For dissemination of information on current signs of fulfillment, and what the Bible and the Jewish Sages have written about it. Promotion of our Kol HaTor Project which promotes Peace between the two Houses and working for reconciliation - for the Peace of Zion, Preparing the Way for the Mashiach and the establishment of His Kingdom. This is a Jewishly kosher Web Site for the insight of the House of Judah (Jews) and 10-Israel and anyone else. Kol HaTor does not feature religious differences but to the contrary, promotes theological tolerance while being united for the sake of achieving Peace between the two Houses, each with their own religious understanding.

Some of you may hear about this first time, I will continue to share and send the update reports to you all.

Blessing and Shalom,
Pastor Steve Peter H S Kok
