War is nothing new. It’s been a theme through the history of time. We have experienced countless wars in our lifetime on earth, some even taking place as you read this. The most significant war of all time, that has yet to cease, is the war of good vs. evil. We are in the middle of this battle and in order to win, we have to arm ourselves with the correct weapon. That weapon is Love.
Love is the most powerful force on this earth. It cannot be overcome - it cannot be defeated. Love is not subject to defeat because it doesn’t seek to gain, it only seeks to give. Our perfect example of this weapon in action is Jesus on the cross. Although he was completely hated, persecuted and mocked, He followed through in loving humanity to the point of death. As we die to selfish gain and look solely to selfless giving we win the war on evil. We win the war on hate. It requires loving our enemies.
As 1 Corinthians 13 tells us - love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
New technology, weapons of mass destruction, and suicide bombers cannot come close to defeating the power of love.
As we purpose to arm ourselves with love, we activate a new hope that cannot be extinguished. It will burn until the fight is won. That day is the day Jesus comes back.
Our mission is to reach the hostile nations of this world for Jesus.
We love the Muslim people through our Bible, Story of Jesus booklet and humanitarian aid distributions in Iraq; through our free English, Literacy and Computer education for widows and children in Afghanistan; and through our distribution of Bibles in Iran. We seek new doors of opportunity to reach those in distressed, politically wrecked countries with the love of Jesus.
This weapon of love is indestructible. We ask that you team with us. Selflessly give, selflessly serve, selflessly pray for those we aim to share Jesus with and watch how God will use that love to break down the enemy’s shield. We will see the glory of God in reaching the Middle East for Christ through a love that He has given us to share.
