A Report on the Arabic Publication Work

Among all the world’s languages, Standard Arabic is the fifth most-widely spoken—if you count both native and non-native speakers—after English, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, and Spanish (source: Ethnologue.com).

We know that the Lord will succeed in redeeming some out of every tongue and causing some out of every tongue to stand before the throne and before Him fully approved at the end of this age (Rev. 5:9; 7:9). To this end, saints have been laboring faithfully for over two decades to get this ministry into Arabic. Read more...

Cooperating with God

Here is a strange point: usually those who are invited to a feast do not bring food. But to come to a feast with a lot of food is very scriptural. God invited all His people to come together, yet God did not cook. Read more...

Through His Spirit into the Inner Man
