LIVING AT THE DOOR OF HELL’S HEADQUARTERS

Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, “Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.”  What will America look like in the very near future? Where is our culture heading? Where are we headed as a society? What will our lifestyle be?

As I travel the nation this is the direction I see America trending toward. Now more than ever I see families made up of multiple marriages. The family as we have known it in the past is almost nonexistent. It has become nothing more than an interesting anomaly – a mere blip in human history. What God calls a family has become abnormal. A godly marriage has been replaced with “serial monogamy.”

Widespread divorce has become so common it is now considered to be normal. Some states have marriage contracts with sunset clauses – to automatically terminate the marriage at a given date.

Many families have multiple parents. Children are living with a bewildering array of relatives – mothers, fathers, multiple stepmothers, multiple stepfathers, stepbrothers, stepsisters, grandparents, former grandparents, etc.

Incest has become rampant! The taboo against incestual relationships has weakened dramatically. The fractured family consists of relatives, non-relatives and former relatives, breaking down the obsolete prohibition against intimacies at home.

The trend toward childlessness has accelerated. We are headed toward a society made up of far more older people and fewer children than ever before.

Children are routinely being abused, victimized and bounced from home to home as families splinter and reform and splinter and reform. Many children have no one to care for them. Boys and girls are roaming the streets much like they do in Venezuela and Brazil.

In several states, pediatricians are teaching children about the use of condoms at the time of their vaccinations against disease and in the classroom in grade school.

Atheism is being embraced by many! Theology, the study of God and the Bible is at an all-time low. As God is no longer welcome in our public school systems, school children have no knowledge of spiritual matters, nor even an interest in this topic.

As a result of the triumph of feminism, many have begun to shun even the reference of God in personal masculine terms (no more, ‘Lord’ or “Heavenly Father’).

Several years ago I was given the divine appointment of witnessing to boxing champion, Floyd Mayweather in the Atlanta airport. To approach Mr. Mayweather I asked him for an autograph for my son Luke who was 10 years old at the time. He signed the autograph with “God bless you.” I asked, “Do you know Him?” Mayweather immediately responded, “How do you know God is a ‘He’?” I told him the Bible refers to God as our Heavenly Father. He asked me where I was going? I told him that I was on my way to Heaven but making several stops on my way there. He laughed and asked if I wanted to sit down and visit with him for a few minutes.

I was given the opportunity to talk to him for 45 minutes. What Mayweather was unaware of is that the night before I happened on an ESPN special about Floyd Mayweather and his rough relationship with his dad. God had given me a download of information about Floyd Mayweather’s family to prepare me for the opportunity to minister to him in the airport. When we parted ways, Mayweather’s bodyguard put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Thank you for taking the time to do that. No one has ever talked to him about the Lord like that before.” Thank God that God is our Heavenly Father!

And finally, I am seeing a trend toward trying to force women to have abortions to deal with an exploding population, just like China imposes on its women. Representative Pat Schroeder spelled out the ideal: “The most important goal for the 21st Century is family planning for everyone.” The bottom line? Here’s what these liberal-minded socialists see in the future: An even more radical approach is evolving! It is reasonable to ask whether there will be a family at all. Given the propensity for divorce, the growing number of adults who choose to remain single, the declining popularity of having children, and the evaporation of the time families spend together, another way may eventually emerge. Many are embracing the concept of dispensing with family-based reproduction. Our society is in the process of trying to produce its future generations in institutions that resemble state-supported baby hatcheries.

Not a pretty picture. Begin with multiple marriages, divorce, and homosexuality. Throw in incest, childlessness and child abuse. Add sexual promiscuity, feminism and abortion. Stir well with atheism and socialism. Wrap it up with giving all of our young children smartphones where they have easy access to pornography. This is the world in which we have found ourselves. Undoubtedly we have entered a post-Christian era in America. An era in which the culture has become increasingly hostile to biblical values and morality.

We the church have found ourselves ministering in an increasing godless society. We are now living at hell’s headquarters. We have set up church at the gates of hell. How should we live? What should be the church’s strategy in the midst of such culture wars?

Like a bride at the altar, our hearts should be filled with anticipation of the glorious consummation of our relationship with Christ. This anticipation should motivate us to spiritual purity and fidelity today. But while we wait, the bride of Christ lives at the front steps of hell’s headquarters. Surrounded by the forces of evil, she must combat Satan and the hordes of hell. The battle roars around us.

We, the church, cannot ignore the spiritual conflict that rages on every hand. Nor can we afford to be safely isolated within the four walls of the church. We must be the church and penetrate our culture, which is under siege by Satan.

In 1917, the Russian Orthodox Church met in Petrograd. The agenda? The church’s leadership deliberated in deep debate and heated argument over – are you ready for this? – the color of their liturgical garb. All the while, just a few blocks away the godless Communist revolution was breaking out and was spilling Russian blood in the streets. While the church met, hell’s headquarters – just blocks away – commenced the takeover of a nation.

Doesn’t this sound like the church in America today? While Satan and his legions are pushing a cultural revolution all across the land, we are deliberating behind cloistered walls, where we trivialize the essentials and debate the unimportant. If we are to be the church, we must be faithful to Christ and so penetrate our world.

No matter where we live, hell’s headquarters are but a few blocks away. The danger is great today. Greater than it’s ever been. And the forces of hell are closer than ever before. But the opportunity for the church today has never been greater either. Especially while we live at hell’s headquarters.

WE SERVE A BIG GOD!

Those who believe in a great God are those who desire to do great things for God. He delights in taking ordinary people and doing extraordinary things through them. That way, the greatness belongs to Him. There is one holy passion that beats in the heart of every Spirit filled believer. It is an ambition to know God and to do something great for Him. Whether it be a pastor or evangelist toward his ministry, a business person toward his career, or a parent toward his or her child, every Christian wants their life to count for eternity. The key for making one’s life strategically count for Jesus is to be gripped with a high view of God!

Are you a big-Godder? Do you serve a great and awesome God? These are life determining questions. In fact, these are the most important questions that we can ask ourselves. Answer them correctly and great will be our influence for the kingdom of God. The size of our God will determine the impact of our lives. Churches and ministries with a big God conduct extraordinary ministry. Big-Godders shake this world for Christ! Ordinary people do extraordinary things when their eyes are upon a great God!

We serve a big God with an “OPEN DOOR POLICY”. He sovereignly opens doors for His people. Only Christ can open doors leading into His will. He alone has the keys. When our circumstances seem to be most impossible, that is when God most delight to open doors for His people. This demands that we pray to Him who alone can open the door to effective ministry.

A great example in the Bible is when Moses led the children of God out of Egypt to the Promise Land. Pharaoh and his army were in hot pursuit. Unexpectedly, the people of God found themselves trapped between a rock and a hard place. So Moses raised the God Rod and God opened a door for them right through the Red Sea! What door are you asking Him to open? A door to witness to someone? A door to serve those who are in need?

God opened doors are seen only through the eyes of faith. Natural eyes see only the impossibilities. Physical eyes see only the obstacles. Only spiritual eyes can see God’s doors opening before us. Only faith can see God-given opportunities. “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen’ (Hebrews 11:1). An open door requires our step of faith. It’s not enough just to see and admire an open door. We must take a step of faith and move forward. God’s part is to open the door, but our part is to go through it.

In 2015 the Holy Spirit began to deal with me about translating the Truth for Youth Bible into Cuban Spanish. At that point I had no connection whatsoever to Cuba. I just new what God said to do! I began the long drawn out tedious process of translating the 100 graphic novel pages. The process included working closely with 14 different artists that would create new stories applicable to Cuba, sketches, pencil art, ink art, color art, word balloons, etc. We also had to secure the Cuban Spanish New Testament translation.

In the meantime God supernaturally opened doors for evangelistic crusades and Bible distribution in Cuba. While we were there we were granted permission to give 1.4 million Bibles to the young people of Cuba!!! With the permission of the Cuban Department of Religious Affairs, the Cuban Council of Churches, and the Cuban Bible Council, we received the approval, endorsement and encouragement from Cuban government officials to publicly hand out the Truth for youth Bible to over a million young people that have never had a Bible! This is a huge breakthrough and God has allowed us to be on the ground floor of this incredible effort! The first 60,000 Truth for Youth Bibles will be delivered to Cuba in time for out GIANT OPEN-AIR TRUTH RALLY that will take place August 12-19. God opened the door and we stepped out in faith! What door has God opened for you? Step out by faith and enter it. To help us provide Bibles for young people in Cuba that have never had a Bible, click here.

Unbelief sees the obstacles, but faith sees the opportunities. An open door always implies that there is also a massive wall. Unbelief looks at the barriers, obstacles, and difficulties, while faith is focused on the open door. Unbelief says, “The obstacles are too great. It costs too much. It’ll never work. People will never buy it. We’ve never done it that way before.” But faith says, “Here’s an open door. Let’s go through it!”

Caleb and Joshua saw the opportunity, not the obstacles. The other ten spies could only see the giants in the land. But Caleb and Joshua saw what a giant their God was. The Chinese word for crisis is a combination of symbols for “danger’ plus “opportunity.” That’s the way it is in God’s kingdom. Opportunity usually comes in the face of crisis and danger.

Doors now open are quickly closing. When God opens an opportunity, it will not stay open forever. There is a day – an appointed time, a divinely designated season – for that door to be open. But it will eventually be closed. Jeremiah 5:24, “The Lord appoints the weeks of harvest.” It’s like harvest time. The farmer has worked hard preparing the soil, planting the seed, and growing the crop. When harvest time comes, the crop must be captured today. Harvest time is no time to be painting the barn. No time to be oiling the tractor. No time to be planting flowers around the house. All that must be left for another day. The harvest must be gathered now or never. So it is in God’s kingdom. When He opens a door before us, we must act promptly. If not, the door will soon be closed.

The church must go through an open door together. As God opens doors, it requires harmony, unity, and togetherness. Only as we take action together can we capture the opportunity at hand! We must move forward by faith as one body – undivided!

When I was in high school, I played football. After we had warmed up before the game, we would return to the locker room for final instructions. Then we would come back onto the field together. We would gather together behind the goalposts, and the cheerleaders would put up a big banner across the goalposts. The band would play our school fight song, and we would run and bust through the banner together. That’s the way God wants the church to be united. Running through the door of opportunity together into the assignments He has given us!

If God is with us, nothing can stop us. Jesus says, “I have put before you an open door which no one can shut.” If God opened it, only God can close it. Satan can’t close it! Demons can’t close it! Imposing circumstances can’t close it! A hostile government can’t close it! An unbelieving world can’t close it! Nobody can close it!!! God opened it and only God can close it!!!

This world is not friendly to the church of Christ. The spiritual warfare is heating upas never before. But we must be assured that as long as God desires a door of ministry opportunity to remain open, it will. Nothing an no one can close it. Whenever God opens the door of heaven to bless us, Satan will open the gates of hell to blast us. Whenever a believer moves forward by faith, you are sure to meet the Devil head-on.

Jesus said in Revelation 3:13, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches”. Pay special attention to Christ’s words. Jesus is the speaker, and the Spirit is calling out to every believer. This messages is critically important. To hear and not obey is to not hear at all. What is the Spirit saying? Our faithfulness in small matters opens up greater ministry opportunities in the future. No church or ministry is limited by its size. We are only limited by the size of our God! Faith in a great God opens up great doors for ministry. No matter how small the church or ministry. God often does His greatest work through His weakest and most obscure instruments.

Are you a big-Godder? How big is your God? Do you have faith in a big God? Or is your God too small? If we have faith in a big God, even the smallest task is important. A construction foreman approached one of his workers who was busy laying bricks at the foundation of a new church. The foreman asked, “What are you doing?” The laborer asked, “Can’t you see? I’m laying bricks.” The foreman then proceeded to another bricklayer and asked, “What are you doing?” The second laborer said, “I’m building a church.” The foreman then walked over to a third bricklayer and asked the same question – “What are you doing?” But this man had a totally different perspective. He answered, “I’m building a house of worship for the glory of God.” All three were doing the same work. But the first two were occupied only the the task. Only the third man saw the big picture. He lived to serve a great God! How about you? Are you just laying bricks? Or do you live to serve a great God? Let me ask you one more time: are you a big-Godder?

In the past 20 years we have given away more than 2.5 million Truth for Youth Bibles to teenagers. We have received more that 25,000 decision cards from young people that have been saved as a result of these efforts. Please pray that we will give away more of these Truth for Youth Bibles in this project than in any previous year! Pray that more young people will be saved this year than in any previous campaign. I’m convinced that Jesus is the solution to the violence in our public school systems. The Truth for Youth Bible is being used mightily to make a tremendous spiritual impact in the lives of every young person that receives a copy.

“I highly commend Tim Todd for designing THE TRUTH FOR YOUTH bible. The spectacular comics within THE TRUTH FOR YOUTH deal with important issues that today’s youth are faced with and it is making an eternal impact in our schools and around the country. THE TRUTH FOR YOUTH is the most powerful outreach tool available for use by the Holy Spirit to change the lives of millions of young people today! Without reservation, I highly recommend it to every teenager in America!” Michael Reagan (Son of the late President Ronald Reagan)

HOW YOU CAN EXPERIENCE REVIVAL

 

How can you be raised from the dead? Jesus gives us six commands that will help lead you to revival! In Revelation 3:2-3 Jesus said, “Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God. Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.”

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

WAKE UP!

 

Jesus said to this church of zombies, “Wake up!” When we are spiritually dead, we need a slap in the face to awaken us. A splash of cold water. A sniff of ammonia. We need God’s alarm to go off. Jesus is saying, “Come out of your spiritual hibernation! Arouse yourself.” There must be an awareness that something is wrong. Honestly face your dullness. Admit to the dryness of your spiritual life. Catch a whiff of the reeking corruption of your death. Admit to God that something is missing. Admit it. You need a spiritual awakening!

In a revival service in Fairhope, Alabama I was preaching my heart out under a strong anointing of the Holy Ghost. As I was moving up and down the isle I got right in front of one of the deacons that was sound asleep. He instantly jerked his head back and loudly groaned. The entire congregation could here his gasp. He sounded like a whale surfacing for air. Since then, I’ve been more careful about whom I stop in front of while preaching in the isle. Those who are asleep in church need to wake up before they are called out by God.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

FORGE AHEAD!

Jesus says that they must “strengthen the things that remain, which were about to die.” It’s not enough just to wake up. This refers to the spiritual basics – Bible study, prayer, worship, and fellowship. Jesus is saying, “Get back into the Word! Get back into prayer! Get back into fellowship! Get back to the basics!” We must throw off the covers, get out of bed, get dressed and get with it! Perhaps you need to start a Bible reading plan or set aside more time in prayer. Strengthen what remains!

_______________________________________________________________

LOOK BACK!

Jesus said, “Remember what you received and heard.” What had they received and heard at the beginning? The Gospel, the basic truths of Christian life. This is not a call to live in the past, but a command to remember their rich spiritual heritage in Christ. Jesus is saying here, “Remember how you were saved and how you were nothing before God found you. Remember how God’s grace reached down and redeemed you!”

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

HOLD ON!

Jesus goes on to say, “and keep it.” Christ is compelling them to obey God’s Word, to keep His commandments, in every area of their lives. Disobedience and spiritual dryness are twin sisters. Wherever you find one, you are sure to find the other. Jesus is saying, “Weave God’s truth through every area of your life. Keep the Word! Put it into practice.” Where God has put a period, don’t put a question mark. Partial obedience is still disobedience, it’s merely convenience. Get back to fully obeying God’s Word.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

LET GO!

Jesus says, finally, “Repent.” This calls for an immediate decision to turn around and come back to Christ with all one’s heart. Repentance calls for a quick and decisive change of thought, devotion, and behavior. In calling for repentance, Jesus is saying, “Confess your sin of spiritual lethargy. Turn away from it. Do an immediate about face! Change your life and return to full devotion to Christ! Repentance means to let go of our sins. That’s a choice that each of us must make. All to often we want to hang onto the world. We risk the truly valuable because we will not let go of our sin. We must turn loose of sin if we are to turn our lives around.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

LOOK OUT!

What if they don’t repent? Jesus warns that He will come like a thief to any church that will not wake up and get with it! This is not a reference to the second coming of Christ. It points to a sudden coming of Christ to judge this church. To remove their lampstand. To discipline them. If they do not repent, Jesus will come like a thief. Unexpectedly. Unannounced. To steal what is valuable – whatever ministry opportunity remains.

Jesus threatens to deal so harshly with this church because nothing holds back the spread of the Gospel like a dead, lifeless church. Persecution causes the church to grow. But spiritual deadness is like malignant cancer that spreads to the whole body. It renders the church impotent, ineffective, and inactive. A dry church will do more to harm the cause of Christ than almost anything else. It is a sin to bore people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Finally, Jesus commends this church in Revelation 3:4, “But you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments; and they will walk with Me in white; for they are worthy.” There were a few that were still spiritually vibrant, alive and awake in their faith. This core group had abstained from moral impurity and not compromised with the world. They had not grown comfortable with the godless culture. They were walking in moral purity. They refused to soil their garments with the world’s filth. Because they had not yielded to temptation, Jesus promises to replace their human garments with specially prepared white robes.In which group do you find yourself? Are you the larger group that is spiritually dead? Or a part of the committed core? Are you a part of your church’s problem? Or a part of the solution? Are you a pillar in your church? Or a caterpillar that just crawls in and out? Remain true to God, escaping the world’s pollution. Live holy and righteous lives, not loving the things of the world. Make a determination today that while the masses in the church have been lulled to sleep, you are going to remain spiritually awake and alert.

BIBLES FOR CUBA CAMPAIGN

IT’S A NEW DAY FOR THE GOSPEL. MILLION’S HAVE BEEN WAITING. YOU CAN HELP BRING THE BIBLE BACK TO CUBA.

Not many people know it, but Christianity in Cuba is growing rapidly! Yet there are few Bibles, and most people in Cuba cannot afford one even if they can find one. Easing of tensions between the United States and Cuba after fifty years offers an unprecedented opportunity for Revival Fires International and our partners to provide Bibles.Revival Fires International already has strong relationships with Cuban churches and Cuban government. Last year, we began our efforts to bring a million Bibles to this island nation. In 2016 and 2017, the government allowed us to import and distribute the first 100,000 Bibles.

Now, in addition to being granted permission to give away ONE MILLION full Bibles, we have now been granted permission to give away the brand new, Truth for Youth Bible to the 1.4 million Cuban young people that have never had a Bible!

You can help accelerate this ambitious project. It costs only $2.00 to print, ship and distribute a Truth for Youth Bible, and only $5.00 to print, ship and distribute a full Bible, anywhere in Cuba—whether Havana or the most remote village. You can help Cuban young people discover the life and love of Jesus found in the Truth of God’s Word, RECEIVING THEIR VERY FIRST TRUTH FOR YOUTH BIBLE AND FULL BIBLE. To help us provide the very first Truth For Youth Bible for a young person and/or the very first full Bibles for the people across the country of Cuba you may click here: DONATE NOW –  Provide Cuban Spanish Truth For Youth Bibles -or-  Provide Cuban Spanish Full Bibles.  Thank you in advance for your help!

CUBA TODAY

With a population of 11 million people, a literacy rate of nearly 100 percent and an unprecedented growth in Christianity thanks to social, economic and political reforms, many Cubans are seeking guidance and hope found ONLY in God’s Word. As a result of this unprecedented spiritual and cultural shift, demand for Bibles and engagement resources has outpaced supply. In addition, most Cubans cannot afford to import high-quality Bibles.

---

---

OUR RESPONSE

RevivalFires International is addressing this crucial need through the Bibles for Cuba Campaign. Through this initiative, generations of Christians will have access to Bibles to help them cultivate a deeper relationship with Jesus.

Revival Fires International’s Bibles for Cuba Campaign is reaching five distinct audiences of Cuban people receiving their very first Bible: school-aged children; teens and college-age youth; adult new believers; prisoners; and seminary students and clergy. Thanks to this critical program, Cuban children, youth and adults will experience the saving knowledge of Christ. By providing Church leaders and seminarians with full Bibles and Truth for Youth Bibles, even more people will experience the transformative power of God’s love for us.

---

GOALS

This year the goals of the project are to supply 100,000 Full Bibles to the many Cubans longing to strengthen their relationship with God through His Word and to supply the first 50,000 Truth for Youth Bibles that we will give away while we are conducting a Truth Rally Crusade August 12-19 for thousands of young people in Cuba who have never given their heart to the Lord Jesus Christ, and that have never had a Bible! So far, with the help of our faithful financial partners we have delivered 60,000 Bibles. The financial goal for this year’s campaign is $600,000 total: $500,000 to distribute the 100,000 full Bibles and $100,000 to distribute the 50,000 Truth for Youth Bibles.

Will you prayerfully consider helping us provide these Bibles with a special Bibles for Cuba offering?

As the Bibles for Cuba Campaign progresses, it will support the emerging Christian faith in the country and help generations of Cubans enjoy a growing bond with Jesus Christ.

To help us provide the very first Truth For Youth Bible for a young person and/or the very first full Bibles for the people across the country of Cuba you may click here: DONATE NOW –  Provide Cuban Spanish Truth For Youth Bibles -or-  Provide Cuban Spanish Full Bibles.  Thank you in advance for your help!

THE TRUTH IS…WHEN BIBLES WERE IN SCHOOL BULLETS WERE NOT

America’s youth need Jesus Christ as their foundation in the wake of a mass shooting at a local high school in Florida. Seventeen innocent young people and adults were needlessly killed and many were injured after 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz, entered Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and began firing an AR-15 rifle.

 

These kids need prayer and these kids need a new foundation besides social media and the godless music that some of them are listening to that’s polluting their minds. They need God! The school violence in America is not a gun problem, it is a God problem! It is not a bullet problem, it is a Bible problem! If a young person would have given this shooter a Truth for Youth Bible and introduced him to the Lord, this shooting would have never happened.

 

Young people need God in their lives! This heightened level of violence was not an issue when I grew up in school 40 years ago. Students in America’s public schools use to begin each day with prayer.  That lasted until 1962, when the Supreme Court decided that public school teachers would no longer be able to pray with their students or even read out loud from the Bible since it supposedly violated 1st Amendment rights.  This served as the basis for a few anti-religious and specifically anti-Christian laws that were subsequently passed.

 

For example, many colleges and schools have initiated “Christian-free zones.”  This means that a student in some schools can get in academic trouble just for wearing a Christian shirt, reading the Bible, leading student prayer, or even simply talking about God and Jesus to other students and staff members. What is it going to take for our society to realize that when God was in school guns were not!!! And our students have the legal right to openly bring God on their school campuses.

 

There have been too many instances where the religious rights of students have been violated. There are also quite a few more reasons why God should be brought back into school beyond the simple rights of Christian students as well. As Christians, we need to remember that we are commanded to preach the good news to all in the world.  Those who claim that God can never be brought back into schools again say that a secular learning environment is free and open minded to all backgrounds.  The reality is that it is more commonly used as a weapon to those who express their belief in God.

 

I believe these are some things that if immediately implemented we can get God back in our schools and see a revival break out on our public school campuses among the young people of America.

 

1. Christian young people need to exercise their right to read their Bible at school just as easily as if they were to read it at home or in another environment. However, in many of our schools, Bibles have been called “inappropriate texts” at various campuses and the students who were caught with them were disciplined academically. How is this fair? Ironically, these same schools don’t seem to have a problem if a student reads the Koran or a Buddhist form of text.  How is a secular learning environment truly free and open to everyone if it’s not guaranteed that a student can read the Bible? Here me, Christian students reading their Bible on campus will help set the atmosphere for a revival in their school!

2. Christian students praying with other ‘students in need’ on their school campus with help bring revival in their school! If a few students want to join together and pray on campus, they should have every right to do so. However, the U.S Supreme Court has ruled that organized school prayer is unconstitutional. Granted, the court was referring to prayer that was organized by the actual school and not by the individual students, but many campuses have drastically misinterpreted this and banned students from praying together. Students need to be made aware that they do indeed have the right to pray at school.

 

3. Active Bible Clubs will help bring revival on our school campuses! This is another example that runs parallel to the freedom for school prayer example. While the Supreme Court ruled that it is unconstitutional for a public school to allow a school to initiate a prayer, many schools misinterpreted that and have prevented even student led prayers from occurring. All the same, Congress has passed legislation that allows students in a school to form Christian or Bible clubs as long as they have a sponsor who is either a teacher or administrator at the school, and as long as the school allows other clubs to form in addition to the Bible club. But yet again, schools have drastically misinterpreted this as well and prevented Christian students from forming Bible clubs, since they refuse to allow their teachers to sponsor the clubs. Christian young people need to take a strong stand on their school campus, getting involved in an existing Bible club, and if there isn’t one, coordinate starting one!

 

4. To distribute Truth for Youth Bibles is one of the most effective ways to return God to our schools and bring a revival to our school campuses! Every school or college campus should have a representative of some Christian organization passing out Bibles and sharing the good news of God to fellow students on a regular basis. Just like the clothing example, some schools see this as offending other students who don’t share those same views and therefore ban Christian students from doing so on campus. However, student’s do have the legal right to distribute Bibles on their school campus during non instructional time. To make this clear to school administrators and student’s, we display the ‘10 Student’s Legal Rights on Public School Campus’ on the back cover of the Truth for Youth Bible. Remember, when Bibles were in school, bullets were not!

5. Speaking about God in a class assignment will also help to restore God to our schools. It’s unbelievable that some schools won’t allow their students to even talk about God in class. Obviously you can’t interrupt a teacher’s lecture or a class discussion, but there have been many examples in the news where a student may want to give a report on Jesus for a ‘most inspiring person project’, and the teacher forces the student to choose someone else, claiming that Jesus is not an appropriate choice. Ironically, some of those same teachers are totally fine if the student were to pick a godless celebrity for their most inspiring person.

 

By denying God in schools, we are denying open ended discussion in scientific and philosophical discussion in classrooms by only focusing on what satisfies a secular learning environment. There’s plenty of scientific and philosophical evidence for intelligent design as the reason behind the formation of the Earth and the Universe. But without God in school, this perfectly viable explanation is taken out of the classroom and forces students to conform to only one alternative, that the universe was formed by chance. We started teaching our youth that they evolved from apes and now many of them have started behaving like apes! One of the powerful graphic novels in the front full color section of the Truth for Youth Bible deals with the evolution lie. Our young people need to know they were made in the image of God!

 

6. Another effective tool to return God to our schools is for young people to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ to fellow students. Christian students must share that there is a loving God who watches out for us and has a plan for our lives. There are godless forces who have been using the government as a tool to forcibly silence those who do believe in God, by demanding a secular environment. Bringing God back in school is the only way to ensure that everyone can share their views openly and freely. We don’t need more ‘gun control’, we need more ‘God control’! When a young person shares Jesus Christ with a fellow student, and that student gives God control of their life, that students life is altered for eternity! No public school has the right to ‘ban God’ and infringe on the beliefs of millions of Christian students!!!

 

I believe that in the midst of this Florida school shooting tragedy, a revival is being released among the youth of America! Let’s pray for our young people. If we want to change our nation, and we do, we must reach a generation of our young people and offer them the only hope, Jesus Christ!

 

Let me encourage you to prayerfully consider purchasing a case of the Truth for Youth Bibles to give to the youth group in your church to be distributed to unsaved young people in your local high schools and junior high schools. Enclosed is a detailed Truth for Youth flyer that will help you with this process.

REVIVAL FIRES GRANTED PERMISSION TO GIVE 1.4 MILLION BIBLES TO THE YOUNG PEOPLE OF CUBA

 

Revival Fires has received approval from the Communist Cuban government to publicly distribute Truth for Youth Bibles to the 1.4 million young people in Cuba that have never had a Bible!!! This historic Bible distribution is a huge breakthrough and Revival Fires is on the ground floor of this incredible effort!

 

HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED: While conducting evangelistic crusades in Cuba, we were privileged to meet with Pastor Miguel Hernandez Salazar. Pastor Hernandez Salazar is a bishop that currently oversees more than 250 on fire for God churches throughout Cuba.

 

We received an overwhelmingly positive response while distributing Truth for Youth Bibles to students in Pastor Hernandez Salazar’s churches across Cuba. Following our TFY distribution, Pastor Hernandez Salazar met with Cuban government officials and received official approval for the Truth for Youth Bible to be distributed to the 1.4 million young people of Cuba that don’t have a Bible!

 

Pastor Hernandez Salazar continues to have great favor with the Cuban government officials as he previously served as the Cuban Council of Churches president from 2008-2012. While serving in this position, he was able to share the Gospel with, then, Dictator Fidel Castro, current Dictator Raul Castro, and many other high ranking Cuban government officials.

“It brought such joy to my heart to see the young people all over Cuba receive their very first Bible. The Truth for Youth is such a special Bible for our young people because of the wonderful graphic novels in the front section that deal with the very important moral issues.” Pastor Hernandez Salazar said, “I thank God for Dr. Tim Todd and I thank God for this special evangelism tool that will be used mightily to reach the young people in our country.”

 

Bible distribution in Cuba was stopped in 1969 and now there are more than a million teenagers in Cuba without a Bible. We now have the opportunity to change this by bringing the Word of God to the youth of Cuba! To reach the country of Cuba we must reach a generation of young people. Please pray for this emergency call for Truth for Youth Bibles for the young people of Cuba. I’m convinced, providing God’s Word to the young people in Cuba without one, is one of the greatest things we can do for King Jesus!

 

We don’t know how long this Bible distribution door will be open in Cuba. But while it is open, we will run through it. With God’s help, and with your help, we will make an eternal impact in the lives of thousands of young people in Cuba. Thank you for praying & obeying, thank you for caring and sharing, and thank you for helping us provide Truth for Youth Bibles for the young people in Cuba.

 

Dr. Tim Todd

 

A LINE HAS BEEN DRAWN!

A line has been drawn in the sand. Sides have been taken, and war has been declared. Hell is officially in session. And the church is under attack.

With mounting hostility, the kingdom of Satan is engaging in a full-scale war against the church of Jesus Christ. The foul forces of darkness are escalating their campaign against the people of God with an unholy vengeance. Like two weather fronts colliding, a violent storm is brewing across the horizon as never before.

Lou Sheldon Traditional Family Values President

Hamilton Square Baptist Church in San Francisco gathered for Sunday evening worship knowing that it would be an eventful service. They just didn’t know how eventful. The featured guest speaker was Lou Sheldon, an outspoken opponent of pro-homosexual legislation in California. As chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition, Sheldon had played a key role in overturning a domestic partners ordinance in San Francisco.

As he came to speak, this church turned into a battleground. Two pro-homosexual newspapers had publicized Sheldon’s visit leading to a barrage of phone calls to the church all week. Militant homosexual activists showed up in force and disrupted the service. The worship service became a war zone. Like an invading army, 100 rioters stormed the church ground and took complete control of the exterior property.

Angry protestors denied worshipers entrance into the church. One church member, a woman, was physically and forcibly carried away from the church by the activists while police just stood by watching! Rioters vandalized church property. The church’s Christian flag was replaced by a homosexual flag. Innocent children were verbally harassed and threatened. Vile obscenities were yelled.

When the service began, angry homosexuals pounded on the sanctuary doors, taunting worshipers to come outside and join them in sexual orgies. As the believers sang, the demonstrators threw eggs and rocks at the stained-glass windows. The pastor was pelted by debris and needed a police escort as he left in a church van. Sounds like Sodom and Gomorrah!!!

This is America today. What’s next? One thing is clear. Jesus warned us it would be this way in the end times before His return, “They will deliver you up to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations on account of My name” (Matthew 24:9). Before His own crucifixion Jesus told us, “If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own, but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you” (John 15:18-19). No mistaking it – the world will hate us.

The Apostle Paul echoed the same: “But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come….And indeed all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Timothy 3:1, 12). Yes, a line has been drawn in the sand. Sides have been taken. And war has been declared. Hell is in direct conflict with Heaven. The church of our Lord Jesus Christ must rise up, full of the Holy Spirit, and take a strong stand in these last days!

The Truth for Youth Bibles that we give to young people across America has a powerful comic story that deals with the truth about homosexual perversion. One young man that was deeply entrenched in the homosexual lifestyle was given a copy of the Truth for Youth Bible. He read the comic story titled, BORN THAT WAY, dealing with homosexual perversion and gave his life to Jesus Christ and God delivered him from the bondage of homosexuality! PRAISE GOD!!!

But these efforts to get the truth of God’s Word into the hands of young people across America have not gone unchallenged. One young man giving Truth for Youth Bibles away in the public high school he attends, was surrounded by a group of militant homosexuals and his life was threatened if he continued to give the Bibles away. He has continued to be bold for Christ and God has protected him from harm! Thank God for bold Christian young people who are willing to take a stand on their public school campuses in these last days!

Other comic stories included in the popular Truth for Youth Bible deal with Sexual Purity, Pornography, Sexting, Cutting, Suicide, Bullying, Witchcraft, Evolution, Abortion and many other issues of moral concern. Christian young people boldly give the Bibles to their unsaved peers in school. We have been able to give away more than 2.5 million Truth for Youth so far hand have received  more than 25,000 decision coupons from young people that have been saved as a result of these efforts.

Miraculously, we have been able to expand these evangelistic efforts into the Communist country of Cuba as we have been granted permission to give the Truth for Youth to the 1.4 million young people of Cuba that have never had a Bible.

Pastor Miguel sharing the Gospel with Raul Castro

Here’s how it happened: In November we ministered in Havana, Cuba for Pastor Marcial Miguel Hernandez Salazar. He was the President of the Cuban Council of Churches for the entire nation of Cuba from 2008 – 2012. During that period of time God allowed him to share the Gospel with the Dictator Fidel Castro and current Dictator Raul Castro. As a result of these efforts, Fidel Castro’s son, Jorge Castro gave his heart to the Lord. Jorge and his entire family are faithfully serving the Lord today.

While I was preaching in our special services there, two of Raul Castro’s body guards gave their hearts to the Lord and were filled with the Spirit! Many others were saved, filled with the Spirit, healed, delivered and set on fire for God.

Pastor Miguel sharing the Gospel with Fidel Castro

We were able to give a copy of the Truth for Youth Bible to every young person in attendance. I was able to share my vision with Pastor Miguel of giving a copy of the Truth for Youth Bible to every teenager in Cuba. Pastor Miguel was able to meet with the Cuban government officials and secured the approval for distribution of the Truth for Youth Bible in Cuba. This is a miracle and only God gets the credit.

We will travel to Cuba in August to conduct a large TRUTH RALLY where we will preach the Gospel to thousands of youth, gives thousands of Truth for Youth to young people who have never had a Bible and believe God for a massive harvest of young people to be saved!

Please prayerfully consider allowing the Lord to use you to help us with the expense of this crusade and the Bibles we will be giving away. The crusade will cost approximately $20,000 and we will give away more than 50,000 Truth for Youth Bibles that will cost $2 each. We are planning for a harvest of more than 20,000 Cuban young people to be saved in this meeting. I have found that God always exceeds my expectation!  If you would like to give to help spread the Gospel in Cuba please click here.

THE TRUTH FOR YOUTH® IN CUBA

The Spanish Truth for Youth Bible is a unique book that has the entire New Testament in the Reina-Valera 95 Translation as its anchor. However, the hook for teens is in the front section of the Truth for Youth – 100 pages of powerful, full color comic stories pack with the ‘absolute truth’ regarding issues that young people are faced with on a daily basis, such as: Sexual Purity, Honor, Pornography, Witchcraft, Homosexuality, Secular Rock Music, Evolution, Sexting, Bullying, Abortion, Pluralism, Suicide, Drugs, Drunkenness and Peer Pressure. We also incorporated the plan of salvation into each comic story so young people will have clear instruction on how to give their life to Jesus.

PULSE

What an awesome move of the Holy Spirit in our very first PULSE Youth Service at Sanctuary Family Worship Center in Jena, LA where Heath Harris is pastor. Many young people gave their hearts to the Lord, rededicated their lives, were filled with the Holy Spirit, called into the ministry and were set on fire for God! We were able to give away a LOT of Truth for Youth® Bibles to every teenager in attendance! The SUM Worship team: Mariah & Mikalen Todd, Eden Townsend, Brandon Byrd, Timmy Davidson and Wyatt Jordan allowed the Holy Spirit to use them mightily!

God is raising up an army of youth in these last days that are going to play an important part in bringing America back to God! Please pray for our upcoming PULSE Youth Services as God spoke to my heart in December, 2017 and showed me that He is going to use these meetings to set a Revival Fire in the hearts of the youth of America! God is bringing in the harvest of young people!

CASE DISMISSED

THE POWERFULLY ANOINTED TESTIMONY OF GOD DELIVERING TIM TODD FROM DRUGS, DRUNKENNESS, AND DEATH

Raised in the home of an internationally known television evangelist, yet lost in a world of drugs and alcohol, as a young man, Tim Todd struggled to find his purpose in life. On the very brink of committing suicide, God miraculously broke through the haze of sin to bring this young man from a world of darkness and despair into a world of hope, peace, and redemption.

You’ll be amazed at Tim’s close calls with death, rejoice with him in his victories, and be in awe at how God turned a seemingly unusable sinner into a dynamic, vibrant speaker, preacher, and evangelist of the graces of God’s unconditional love.

GOD BLESSED US WITH A MASSIVE HARVEST OF SOULS COMING INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD ACROSS AMERICA AND AROUND THE WORLD IN 2017!

2017 has been the most ‘Kingdom Productive’ year of ministry in more than 30 years of being on the evangelistic field. We witnessed more people give their hearts to the Lord, being filled with the Holy Ghost, healed, delivered and set on fire for God than in any previous year.
I was honored to preach revival services and evangelistic crusades in churches and venues in Australia, Canada, Cuba, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.  Masses of people made public professions for Christ.  Many more sought the Lord in the altars rededicating their lives to serving the Lord.  Many were healed.  Many were filled with the Holy Ghost.

 

WE WERE HONORED TO PROVIDE MORE THAN 25,000 FULL BIBLES FOR OUR TROOPS DEFENDING AMERICA IN THE WAR ON TERROR

Every day our U.S. soldiers put their life on the line for us to stop the awful spread of international terrorism against the United States. The very least we can do is to make sure they all have Bibles! As you have partnered with Revival Fires International in this vitally important BIBLES FOR U.S. TROOPS project, this year, we have been able to provide more than 25,000 Bibles for our soldiers who would not have received one otherwise. Our soldiers serving in the War on Terror should not be sent into battle without Bibles

YOU SUPPLIED THE 25,000 BIBLES WE GAVE AWAY THIS YEAR…

Each case contains 25 complete Bibles and cost only $4 each to print. With your generous donations you have played an important part by helping us provide these Bibles for our service men and women that are giving so sacrificially every day to keep our nation safe. Thank God, we have been able to provide a total of more than 250,000 Bibles for our troops since we started this campaign!

Right now we have more than 14,000 soldiers in Afghanistan. The count includes covert as well as temporary units. An additional 2,000 American troops, which military officials have not publicly acknowledged, are also in Afghanistan to help local forces conduct counter-terrorism missions. We rotate our troops approximately every 18 months. Our soldiers are so receptive to receiving and reading a Bible when they are in harms way. There are no atheist in foxholes!

…AND WE DELIVERED THEM TO OUR TROOPS BY MILITARY TRANSPORT

I received a letter from one soldier that watched his very best friend die right in front of him as his armored truck drove over an IED, improvised explosive device, weighing hundreds of pounds. It was in the dirt  along a highway. He wrote, “I was so devastated by the loss of my friend that I was ready to commit suicide. My chaplain brought one of your Bibles to me and I just new the Lord was helping me. Thank you for the Bible. It saved my life. Please pray for us while we are out here.”

The Bibles that we provide for these soldiers have an important section of material that helps them deal with loneliness, fear, anxiety, and thoughts of suicide. The suicide rate among our U.S. soldiers is at an all time high right now, however, there is an 87% drop in the suicide rate among the soldiers that receive one of the Bibles we provide. Please continue to pray for our troops and their families as we continue to provide Bibles for them.

 

BRINGING A HARVEST OF SOULS THROUGH THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE TRUTH FOR YOUTH BIBLE IN AMERICA

This year, we received more “Decision Coupons” from teenagers who were saved as a result of receiving a Truth for Youth (TFY) Bible than ever before! We give the TFY away during revival services, evangelistic crusades and special projects such as the National Truth for Youth Bible Campaign on American Family Radio. This is the 17th year that American Family Radio has partnered with us and we broke every previous record, giving away more TFY Bibles this year than ever before!!!

IF WE WANT TO BRING AMERICA BACK TO GOD…(AND WE DO)…

The TFY Bibles are given to teenagers who commit to give them to their unsaved friends in school. Christian young people across America are hungry for truth and have a burning desire and commitment to bring their friends to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.

One goal for giving the TFY Bible to teenagers is to help restore religious freedoms to our public schools. The main goal for the distribution of the TFY Bible, however, is to bring the message of the Gospel to America’s youth so they might receive Christ and become His disciple.

…WE MUST REACH A GENERATION OF YOUNG PEOPLE WITH THE GOSPEL!

In the past 23 years we have received more than 25,000 decision coupons, online submission forms and emails from young people who have indicated they were saved for the very first time as a result of getting a copy of the TFY Bible!!! As a result of these effective evangelism efforts we are witnessing many youth receive deliverance from drugs, drunkenness, sexual sins such as sexual promiscuity, pornography and homosexuality. Please pray for the continued Kingdom success of this vitally important TFY Bible distribution project as we reach the youth of our nation.

BRINGING IN A HARVEST OF SOULS IN CUBA

As you know Angie and I have personally made two trips to Cuba to conduct evangelistic crusades and give away Bibles. In one service while we were there in November, two of Dictator Raul Castro’s personal bodyguards were in attendance, gave their hearts to the Lord and were slain in the Spirit! The power of God is flowing mightily in Cuba and God drawing the Cuban people to a place of repentance!

The doors for evangelism and Bible distribution, (Full Bibles and the BRAND NEW Cuban Spanish Truth for Youth Bibles!!!), have opened up to us in Cuba and we are running through these doors while they are open!

THE BRAND NEW CUBAN SPANISH TRUTH FOR YOUTH BIBLE…

Cuba’s “Department of Religious Affairs” has approved the distribution of ONE MILLION BIBLES throughout Cuba. Because of your giving this year we have already been able to provide more than 100,000 full Bibles to people in Cuba that have never had a Bible. Praise God for this awesome opportunity!!!

Bibles have been so scarce in Cuba that some preachers have been preaching for years from a “BORROWED BIBLE!” Most churches have had only one or two Bibles for the entire congregation! The situation in Cuba has been worse than deplorable!

THINK ABOUT IT…Bible distribution in Cuba was stopped (48 years ago) in 1969. It just blows my mind to know that we now have this wide open door for Bible distribution and evangelism in Cuba. This is a miracle and God is performing it!!!

…IS A POWERFUL EVANGELISTIC TOOL TO HELP REACH…

HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED…the “Bible Commission of Cuba”, a well respected liaison organization between the Cuban churches and the Cuban government for over 60 years, has been used mightily of God to help open this vitally important door of Bible distribution and evangelism in Cuba. THE DEPARTMENT OF RELIGIOUS AFFAIRS for the Cuban government has officially approved this Bible distribution effort. What a miracle break through from God!!! In our most recent Cuba Crusade the Department of Religious Affairs president attended one of our services!

It is amazing to witness people receiving their very first Bible in a communist country. In one Bible distribution service that we conducted a precious woman of God said, with tears of joy streaming down her cheeks, “My family has been praying for a Bible for 60 years. God used you to answer our prayer.” She held that Bible in her hands like it was a piece of gold.

…THE 2 MILLION YOUNG PEOPLE IN CUBA THAT DON’T HAVE A BIBLE!

Our most recent trip in November is the very first time we have been able to distribute the Truth for Youth Bible to the young people of Cuba. The teenagers in Cuba loved the Cuban Spanish comic stories in the front section combined with the New Testament. This is a tremendous evangelistic tool that God is going to use mightily to reach the 2 million young people in Cuba that have never had a Bible!

Your prayers and your financial help have made it possible to bring Jesus to the people of Cuba and we greatly appreciate you. The Full Bibles cost only $5 each and the Truth for Youth Bibles cost only $2 each. Your financial gifts this year have helped print these Bibles and give them away to precious Cuban people who have never had a Bible! Thank you!!! We will be back in Cuba in 2018 to continue to conduct evangelistic crusades and distribute Bibles.

BRINGING GOD’S DELIVERANCE WITH INTERNET EVANGELISM

Our evangelistic website, TruthForYouth.com, continues to draw great response.  In 2017 we received more “Salvation Response Forms” than in any previous year, from young people and adults who were either saved or seeking counseling for deliverance from drugs, drunkenness, pornography, homosexual perversion, cutting, sexting, and suicidal tendencies.

With God’s favor I have been able to obtain the email addresses of thousands of people that currently subscribe to pornography. Several times a month we send a colorful email to people that subscribe to pornography that says, “CHECK OUT THIS HOT FREE SITE!”  When they click on the link it takes them to a page that offers them salvation, deliverance and victory in a manner that is designed to captivate their attention. I receive a lot of hate mail, however, MANY are being drawn by the power of the Holy Spirit to a place of repentance. Please pray for these peoples hearts to be receptive to the deliverance that God has for them. Also, please pray for our protection.

IN 2018 IF THE LORD DOESN’T RETURN FIRST WE WILL GO FORTH AND CONTINUE TO FAN THE FLAMES OF REVIVAL FIRES ACROSS AMERICA AND AROUND THE WORLD

In 2018, if the Lord doesn’t return first, we plan to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in churches, on television, through social media and in evangelistic crusades and fulfill the ‘Great Commission’ across America and around the world! Thank you so much for praying with us that we will continue to have a massive harvest of souls coming into the Kingdom of God! As we – provide Bibles for our troops; Truth for Youth Bibles for the young people of America and Cuba; and Bibles to the precious people of Cuba that have never had one!

PRAYERFULLY CONSIDER AN END OF THE YEAR FINANCIAL GIFT

Let me encourage you to prayerfully consider giving an end of the year gift to help us continue to do what God has called us to do: Bring a massive harvest of souls IN and get the Word of God OUT! If the Lord lays on your heart to do so, you may CLICK HERE. Thank you so much for your consideration.

Remember this, we are praying for you! If you have anything specifically that you want us to pray with you about, please let us know.

Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign:
The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son,
And will call him Immanuel.
– Isaiah 7:14

On the first Christmas eve, Jesus was born
He is the reason for the season
Celebrating His love for us
no matter what the cost was. From the Todd Family to yours, Have a blessed CHRIST-mas and a productive, bountiful, fruitful New Year!
