You Are Their Blessing D i c k

“Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.”

— John 13:14 (NIV)

efore the Christ Group could meet at night, they had to turn off all the lights and tightly draw the curtains. Persecution in this closed region had forced these steadfast believers to meet in secret.

One of them took out a Bible and began to read aloud by the dim light of a mobile phone. The other believers in the tiny room listened with rapt attention, hungry to hear the Word of God. This story fills me with joy to know the power of God’s Word and the perseverance of His Church.

But at the same time, I feel a weight of responsibility. Stories like this remind us of the great spiritual need experienced by millions across the globe. God has chosen us, His Church, to meet that need. And when we rise to the challenge, amazing things happen.

People living in countries closed to the Gospel hear about Jesus’ love for the first time. Believers who have

longed for years to read God’s Word for themselves receive Bibles of their own. And pioneer missionaries who face great risk and persecution find courage in knowing that friends like you prayerfully support them.

Right now, our pioneer missionaries are preparing for their Christmas Outreaches. These annual outreach opportunities use the holiday season to bring in an amazing harvest. Last year, they reached over 57 million homes, and more than 8 million people responded to the Gospel.

Christmas is the time when we come together to thank the Lord for His many blessings — both physical and spiritual. But perhaps the greatest blessing He has bestowed upon us is our unique ability to also bless others around the world. As you read the stories in this issue of Every Home, I pray that God will show you how you can bless those in need this Christmas.

"In over 20 years of ministry, I’ve yet to meet an unhappy generous person. They simply don’t exist. On the contrary, I’ve found that generous people tend to be contented

and spiritually mature prayer warriors who have strong personal relationships! I can’t explain why exactly, but after working with thousands of givers, I’ve observed a pattern of amazing personal benefits connected to being generous.

In addition to these personal benefits, Christian generosity also makes the world more beautiful. It feeds and clothes the poor and provides for widows and orphans.

It blesses people with the message of the Gospel and provides funds for missionaries to share the love of Jesus. It’s contagious, it makes people smile, and it brings thanksgiving and glory to God! This world is a dramatically better place thanks to the generosity of God’s people.

As you approach the end of the year and reflect on the blessings that God has bestowed upon you and your family, I hope you will be inspired to be as generous as possible. In doing so, you share God’s blessings with your neighbours, your church and the ministries you love.

Significant generosity often inspires us to go beyond giving from our income".

At the End of His Rope G o s pel li t er a t u re

ften, EHC pioneer missionaries show up in the exact moment they are needed most. A person needs healing, and God sends someone to their door to pray with them. A family is in crisis, and a missionary shows up with Good News that changes their lives. Many times, we have even seen people pulled back from the brink of death.

This was the case with Yiandro*. After a long day fishing on the ocean, he sent his partner home early and then stayed behind to wash the tools. He wanted to be alone, because he was thinking about committing suicide.

Yiandro had lived a hard life, losing an eye and serving time in prison. But even now that he was released and working a stable job, he felt like he had nothing to live for. He felt ashamed of the life he’d lived, and he couldn’t see what worth his life had.

He waded out into the ocean and dipped his tools in the water. Then he felt something brush against his leg. He reached down and picked up a blue booklet with wet pages clinging together. Spreading it in the sun, he kept working and resumed his dark thoughts.

When he was finished cleaning, he walked to shore and started reading the paper.

It was a gospel booklet from Every Home for Christ. Yiandro read about the God who loved Him enough to give His life for him. This God offered salvation and a new life. Yiandro’s heart began to awaken.

Yiandro ran home and showed his wife, who felt a similar pull on her spirit. Together, they went to their local church and gave their lives to Christ. Shortly after, they were baptized.

Through that gospel booklet, Yiandro connected with Every Home for Christ.

He was so grateful for his new life that he decided to give Every Home for Christ a piece of property. He dedicated the property for a church. Construction has already begun.

Yiandro has changed completely — from a hopeless man contemplating suicide to a believer who is creating space for his community to worship.

Consider for a moment how much God orchestrated to deliver the Gospel to Yiandro.

His family lives in a Creative Access nation, a place where the government directly opposes evangelism. Bypassing political difficulties, God engineered for a stray EHC gospel booklet to find its way into the water where Yiandro stood.

Around the world, Every Home for Christ often delivers the Gospel to people in their exact moment of decision. When people are at a crossroads, deciding between light and darkness, life and death, sometimes it is even EHC paper missionaries that find them and offer them hope.

These moments are more than chance encounters. As Yiandro’s story so beautifully displays, God is moving through us in ways that exceed our abilities. We work to provide gospel literature to those who need it, but God arranges the timing and opens people’s hearts to His Word. *Name changed for security purposes.

Gospel Literature More than any newspaper or magazine printed on earth, gospel literature carries news that changes people’s lives. Gospel literature makes an announcement: The King has come, and He is inviting you into His Kingdom!

Would you announce the Kingdom to those who are waiting for Good News?

Hope by the Box-Full Chri s t m a s O u t re a c he s

A

four-year-old living in Ukraine today has never known a Christmas without warfare. In 2014, a political protest over trade agreements escalated into civil war and the annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea Peninsula by Russia. Since then, about 55,000 people have evacuated Ukraine’s eastern war zone — often under gunfire — to flee west with only the belongings they could fit into their cars.

A single mother named Valeria* was one of those thousands who left their lives behind to escape the violence. She arrived in western Ukraine with her two children and no means to make a living. For 16 months, their situation remained unchanged.

“They sat together and wept,”one Ukrainian pastor recounts. “The children were hungry.”

With another Christmas fast approaching, highlighting how little she had to offer her family, Valeria felt overcome. Facing the bleak turn her life had taken, she confessed that she had contemplated taking her own life.

“If you feel that way,” her daughter replied, “My own life doesn’t make sense either.”

But that Christmas would prove different for Valeria’s family. Even amid the chaos of

warfare, God saw Valeria and her children, and He sent a pastor working with Every Home for Christ to find them.

“We met with this woman and gave her food and gifts for the children,” this pastor shares. “And we told her how much God loves her.”

Not only did Valeria’s family finally have the help they needed, they also had hope. She and her children were not forgotten. Their lives still have purpose, because they matter to God, and now they are connected to His Church.

This is the message Every Home for Christ Ukraine spreads throughout this war-torn nation every day, but the Christmas season is an especially important time. For the past six years, they have conducted a special Christmas outreach, bringing gift boxes to children like Valeria’s — and messages of hope to entire families.

“This Christmas project is special for us,” says Anatoliy Kushnir, EHC National Director of Ukraine. “In the last few years of the war, church members have taken these boxes and found despairing families with small children to bring them love.”

These boxes are provided by Every Home

for Christ, but they are filled with gifts by believers from over 100 Ukrainian churches.

Each box comes with a Scripture-filled gospel message to share the love of Jesus with the family who receives it.

“The boxes are such nice quality,” Anatoliy shares. “Children use them to store things afterwards, extending our time of communicating the love of God and the gift of Jesus throughout the year.”

When this outreach began in 2011, 30,000 gift boxes were prepared to spread awareness about 30,000 Ukrainian orphans in need of adoption. Anatoliy says they wanted to bring the Church’s attention to these lonely children, challenging believers to make a difference.

It worked. Today, more than 20,000 Ukrainian orphans are in the care of Christian families, and 23 Christian children’s homes have been established. However, thousands of children are still waiting for families, and that number climbs as the conflict continues.

“We have a part in shaping the culture of Ukraine, starting with the Church,” Anatoliy shares. “We hope to make 30,000 boxes every year until Christians solve this problem.”

Amazingly, these boxes aren’t only reaching refugees in the west. Every Home for Christ also takes them to those still living in the eastern war zone itself.

“The Gospel is well received there,” Anatoliy says. “In the buffer zone of the war area, we know of 55 new churches. That is how the love of God evokes a response.”

God is moving through the Ukrainian Christmas outreaches in a mighty way.

Thousands of families receive the Gospel each Christmas. Christian families are providing homes to Ukrainian orphans. And the Church is growing in the most dangerous region of the country. *Name changed for anonymity.

Christmas Outreaches Anatoliy reports that more than half of the families who receive EHC Christmas gift boxes respond by putting their faith in Jesus. Christmas has a way of opening people’s hearts to the love of God, and we want to meet them in that moment with the Gospel. To give toward Christmas outreaches, please use the enclosed Reply Slip.

Can We Know When Jesus Will Return?

Can we know when Jesus will return? No. When it comes to the exact timing of His return, we can't know. Jesus Himself said "no man knows the day or the hour of my return, not even myself. Only my Father in heaven knows" (Mark 13:32).

Jesus reiterated this concept when He said He would come like a thief in the night "when least expected" (Matthew 24:43-44). This idea, coupled with the statement "no one can know the day or the hour" of His return, has led many Christians to believe they can't know anything about the timing of His return.

After all, if Jesus comes like a thief in the night when least expected, how could you know when He's coming?

That's a good question. And while it's true we can't know the day or the hour, the idea no one has a clue as to whether it's tomorrow or a 1,000 years from now is just plain wrong.

The Bible is clear we can know the general "season" of His return.

Like a Thief in the Night Many people who believe we can't know anything about the timing of Christ's return base their belief on the idea Jesus "will come like a thief in the night." Jesus did say He would come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night (Matthew 24:43-44). And Paul said the same thing (1 Thessalonians 5:2).

But if you read the rest of Paul's letter to the Thessalonians, you'll see he said something else as well. Paul said those of us who live in the light will not be surprised.

While Jesus will come like a thief in the night when least expected, those who know God's Word will not be surprised.

Here's the full context of that passage (emphasis mine): "But you aren't in the dark about these things, dear brothers and sisters, and you won't be surprised when the day of the Lord comes like a thief.

For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don't belong to darkness and night. So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. Night is the time when people sleep and drinkers get drunk. But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the armor of faith and love, and wearing as our helmet the confidence of our salvation." 1 Thessalonians 5:4-8 (NLT) How can this be? If Jesus comes unexpectedly like a thief in the night, how is it Christians are not surprised? It's because we know to expect Jesus at any moment, and we obey His command to be alert and ready at all times.

We also know the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to establish His Millennial Kingdom comes with many signs.

Why Would God Mention Signs?

If we can't know anything about the timing of the Second Coming, then why did Jesus tell us to look for signs? When His disciples asked Him to describe the signs of His return, He told them. He didn't rebuke them. He didn't tell them to forget about such things.

Instead, He described the signs. Why would Jesus say to look for signs if they don't exist? Why would He mention them if we can't know when He's coming?

The answer is clear. We can know the general time frame of His return. We can't know the day or the hour, but we can know the season.

Numerous signs precede the Second Coming.

Jesus and the prophets told us what those signs are. And Jesus said when you see them, you'll know He's near - right at the door (Matthew 24:33). We see those signs today. So we can know with certainty Jesus is coming soon.

A Command to Watch Jesus also commanded us to "Watch!" (Matthew 25:13). This begs the question. Watch for what? Over and over again, Jesus says, "Watch! Don't let me find you asleep when I come back without warning" (Mark 13:35-37).

This is a clear command.

But what does it mean? Jesus is telling us to be spiritually alert. If we live a life of faithful service to Him, the day of His return won't catch us like a trap.

Jesus says a faithful servant lives life expecting His return at any moment (Luke 12:35-38).

But Jesus is also telling us to watch for signs of the Second Coming. After all, if there are no signs, what are we supposed to be "watching" for?

Again, it's clear. Signs will precede the Second Coming. And Jesus expects us to recognize those signs. If He didn't, why would He command us to watch? He wouldn't, because we would have nothing to look for.

We're supposed to be watching for the signs. And Jesus says those who are ready and waiting when He returns will be rewarded (Luke 12:37).

Recognizing the Signs In reference to His first coming, Jesus told the Pharisees, "You can recognize the signs in the sky and know what type of weather is coming, yet you don't know how to recognize the signs of the times" (Matthew 16:3).

The prophets had written extensively about the coming of the Messiah. The Pharisees knew when the Messiah was supposed to come. They knew the Messiah would perform many miracles.

Jesus fulfilled these prophecies right before their eyes. Yet the Pharisees still didn't recognize who He was. Just as He did with the Pharisees, Jesus expects us to recognize the signs of His Second Coming.

He told us what signs to look for. And the same prophets who wrote about His First Coming also wrote about His Second Coming. Like the Pharisees, we're expected to recognize "the signs of the times." Those signs tell us the Second Coming is drawing near.

Conclusion While we can't know the day or the hour of His return, we can know the general season. The Bible tells us what signs to look for. And Jesus Himself said when you see all these signs come together, you know His return is near (Luke 21:28).

Today, we see those signs. Israel is once again a nation (Isaiah 11:11-12).

The Jewish people are back in Jerusalem (Luke 21:24). And the Gospel is being spread to the ends of the earth (Matthew 24:14).

These and other signs are out in the open for everyone to see. You can't miss them. For 1,800+ years of Christianity, these signs didn't exist. Today, they do.

God said He will hold us accountable for letting others know about the signs (Ezekiel 33:1-6). We're expected to point out these signs to others. We're expected to tell others Jesus is returning soon.

If the world ignores us, so be it. But if anyone tells you we can't know the timing of His return, tell them what the Bible says.

The truth is we can know the general season of His return. And given all the signs we see today, we can be certain we're living in it. The time is near.

Jesus is coming soon!
