Health Mission in the Ugandan Villages
Hundreds of villagers waiting to be tested during
A three-day Medical Mission was a major part of our recent trip to Uganda. Our friends Cliff and Julie Pash run a mission base in Nawansega, Uganda. Over the last three years, we have partnered with them to raise funds for construction, as well as teaching and ministering in the villages each time we are there. A few months ago, the neighbor who owns the property next door to the mission base passed away unexpectedly. It soon came to light that he had died of an advanced case of syphilis. This moved Dr. Pash to action. How could you stand by and watch your neighbor die of a treatable disease and do nothing about it? More |

Recent Teachings from our BLOG
Don't Let The Devil
To watch a video or download this teaching, click the player above. Luke 22:1-6 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, [2] and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people. [3] Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. [4] And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. [5] They were delighted and agreed to give him money. [6] He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.
So in these chapters we are approaching the time of Jesus last Passover, before his crucifixion and resurrection. Prior to this, Satan had been working on Judas, tempting him to be offended. You can find the slow unraveling of Judas’ identity as one of the twelve. (By the way- Have you ever wondered what the title “Iscariot” means? It actually means “One of Kerioth”. Keroth was a town in southern Judah. So the nickname “Judas Iscariout” literally means “Judas of Kerioth”. ) One of the first mentions of Judas’ change of heart is when Jesus first introduced the thought of His body and Blood being given to establish the new covenant:
John 6:53-71 Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. [54] "He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. [55] "For My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. [56] "He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. [57] "As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also shall live because of Me. [58] "This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate, and died, he who eats this bread shall live forever." [59] These things He said in the synagogue, as He taught in Capernaum. [60] Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard this said, "This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?" [61] But Jesus, conscious that His disciples grumbled at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble? [62] "What then if you should behold the Son of Man ascending where He was before? [63] "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. [64] "But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him. [65] And He was saying, "For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me, unless it has been granted him from the Father." As a result of this many of His disciples withdrew, and were not walking with Him anymore. [67] Jesus said therefore to the twelve, "You do not want to go away also, do you?" [68] Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life. [69] "And we have believed and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God." [70] Jesus answered them, "Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve, and yet one of you is a devil?" [71] Now He meant Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him.
So it seems that many of those who had followed Jesus at the beginning took an offense at this teaching, and a number fell away. In these verses we see the revelation that even one of the twelve was falling away. But while he had lost faith in Jesus, Judas found it convenient to continue in his ministry as one of the twelve. |
