Why I Am A King James Bible Only Christian Has Nothing To Do With The Greek, Hebrew, Or Any Other Movement, Group, Organization Or Individual
This is why I have been King James only for 30 years now, and why I will not ever, by God’s grace, move from that foundation at any point in the future.
Funny thing, though, whenever I picked up an NIV or some other modern translation, it didn’t speak to me, it felt like I was holding a balloon that was rapidly leaking air. I can’t explain that, I only know that’s what happened.
A few weeks ago, we opened up the NTEB Bible Believers Bookstore here in Saint Augustine, and the Lord is blessing us with favor in the community and online as sales remain encouraging and steady. But more than a few people who have visited the store have asked why we don’t sell any other bible or commentary other than the King James. The answer is really quite simple, and I would like to share my thoughts with you on that today.
“Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, What doest thou?” Ecclesiastes 8:4 (KJB)
I didn’t come to be a King James Only Christian because of any one charismatic bible preacher or teacher, and I was not introduced to the Independent Fundamental Baptist movement until years after I was saved. I became a King James Only Christian on March 14th, 1991, because I held that Book in my hands, read it, believed it, and got saved. That Book spoke to me, and God allowed me at once to see that it was the truth. Now, I didn’t know any Christians, no one ‘led me to the Lord’ other than the Holy Spirit, and I had never set foot inside a Christian Church. All I had was God, the King James Bible, and salvation. I was blissfully unaware that the ‘King James Only Controversy’ was even a thing.
“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12 (KJB)
After getting saved, things happened quickly. I soon found myself in a small, non-IFB Baptist Church, where the pastor was not King James only. But that made no mind to me because I had my bible and no one was going to talk me out of it. Funny thing, though, whenever I picked up an NIV or some other modern translation, it didn’t speak to me, it felt like I was holding a balloon that was rapidly leaking air. I can’t explain that, I only know that’s what happened.
I began to read Christian literature and biographies of great men that God used like DL Moody, Robert Sheffey and others, and what did I find? I found them all to be King James Bible people. I had little to no interest in most of the ones in the 20th century other than people like Clarence Larkin and Peter Ruckman, and when I got to that stage in my journey, it was there I was introduced to the raging battlefield that is the IFB Movement. But following sound advice to ‘eat the meat and spit out the bones’, I soon made substantial progress.
One thing that puzzled me was why nearly all of the ‘brain boys’, the Greek and Hebrew scholars, all seemed to be highly critical of the King James, and nearly all of them defaulted to versions like the NIV, ESV and others. Why would such smart people want a book that, to me, had no power? Good question, we’ll answer that in a bit. One day, I thought it would be fun to compare scripture in the King James with scripture in the NIV, and what I found shocked me.

| If it’s hard to do, should we just remove it? | |
| Mark 11:26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses. |

| Who is in charge? | |
| I Cor. 10:28 …for the earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof: |
I Cor. 10:28 (last part of verse missing) |
| How must we deal with our enemies? | |
| Matt. 5:44 …Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. |
Matt. 5:44 …Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. |

| John 16:16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father. |
John 16:16 In a little while you will see me no more, and then after a little while you will see me. |
| Is it John or the Devil? | |
| Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. |
Revelation 13:1 The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. |
I don’t know how to explain that, do you? And what you see there is only a few examples, there are hundreds and hundreds more. How could there be such a great discrepancy between the King James and the NIV? Was it done out of ignorance, was it intentional, what was behind it all? Those questions would be answered when I bought my first copy of ‘New Age Bible Versions’, and read the amazing, Holy Spirit-led research done by Gail Riplinger. I highly recommend you get yourself a copy, we happily sell it at the bookstore.
Do you know the one thing that all bible versions over that past 410 years have in common? I bet you don’t. The one thing that all bible version from the King James on forward have in common is that they are all different. Common sense and logic would dictate that things that are different cannot be the same. So if they are all different, which one is the one where God has preserved His word? Since the word of God cannot contradict itself, can you show me where God has preserved His word? I can. Now look at the following verses from Psalm 12 in the King James and in the NIV. The King James gives you a promise that God will preserve His word on earth for all generations, and then the NIV swoops in and erases that promise! See for yourself.
- GOD’S PROMISE TO PRESERVE HIS WORDS IN THE KJB: “The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.” Psalm 12:6,7 (KJB)
- GOD’S PROMISE TO PRESERVE HIS WORDS REMOVED: “And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold[fn] refined seven times. You, LORD, will keep the needy safe and will protect us forever from the wicked,” Psalm 12: 6,7 (NIV)
If you’re a bible believing Christian who loves the Book, that one example alone should make you fighting mad, does it?? The King James in verse 7 gives you God’s absolute, rock-solid promise to preserve His words throughout every generation, that’s a huge promise! What does the NIV do? It erases it and substitutes it with meaningless nonsense that has nothing to do with preservation of scripture at all. Verse 7 in the NIV is not anything at all like verse 7 in the King James. I’m from New Jersey, we call this a scam, the old ‘bait-and-switch’. Verse 7 in the King James is talking about the preservation of words, verse 7 in the NIV is talking about the preservation of people. Not even remotely close on any level.
This is why I have been King James only for 30 years now, and why I will not ever, by God’s grace, move from that foundation at any point in the future. I hope you have enjoyed this snapshot of my faith in the King James Bible, and who knows, maybe this will become an ongoing series. But let me challenge you today to pick one modern bible where you think God has preserved His words, there can be only one, and defend your choice by comparing it to the King James. If you do it honestly and before the Lord, you will come to the exact same conclusion that I came to.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: A ‘Decimated’ And ‘Obliterated’ Iran Begins Weaponizing The Strait Of Hormuz Sending Global Energy Markets Into Chaos
Iran Tightens Its Grip On Hormuz As IRGC Rocket Launchers, Sea Mines And Ballistic Missiles Turn The World’s Most Important Oil Chokepoint Into A War Zone
Iran is once again showing the world that it does not need to defeat the United States in a conventional war to inflict tremendous damage upon it. According to CENTCOM, IRGC forces on Larak Island were preparing rocket launchers capable of firing naval mines directly into the Strait of Hormuz, replenishing the very minefields American forces had only just finished clearing. That is not ordinary coastal defense, it is calculated economic warfare. Tehran is weaponizing one of the most important maritime chokepoints on Earth, transforming a narrow stretch of water into a pressure valve on global oil supplies, shipping insurance, commercial traffic and inflation. Iran understands perfectly that it can shake markets, frighten tanker operators and drive oil above $90 without sinking an American aircraft carrier or winning a single conventional battle.
“There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.” Isaiah 57:21 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, when the United States destroyed those launchers, Iran did not limit its response to the Strait or strike only at the forces responsible. The IRGC fired ballistic missiles toward bases housing American forces in Jordan and launched drones into UAE airspace, immediately expanding the battlefield into neighboring countries. Jordan says it intercepted eight missiles, while the UAE says it intercepted Iranian drones over its territorial waters. Iran is demonstrating that every Gulf nation hosting American forces can be made to pay a price for Washington’s decisions. Tehran is turning the entire region into a field of retaliatory targets while presenting its aggression as “self-defense.”
The most disturbing part is that Iran appears determined to establish itself as the gatekeeper of Hormuz. Tehran says vessels must obey Iranian navigation restrictions, has reportedly threatened ships attempting to pass without its authorization, and claims a tanker struck two mines after trying to transit “illegally.” That amounts to an effort to impose Iranian control over an international waterway by force. America may destroy two launchers today and clear several mines tomorrow, but Iran can deploy more rockets, drones, missiles and mines from a long and heavily fortified coastline. The IRGC is betting that it can bleed America’s munitions, frighten its Gulf allies, strangle international commerce and force the world to negotiate on Tehran’s terms. This is not Iran backing down, it is Iran tightening its grip around the throat of the global economy. Today on the Podcast, nothing is at is seems in the Middle East as we rapidly approach the prophecy tipping point!

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: Spiritual Wickedness In High Places
We are surrounded by antichrists who are working overtime to prepare this coming world for the arrival of the kingdom of the biblical Antichrist
America in 2026 is not suffering from a shortage of religion, it is drowning beneath a flood of counterfeit Christianity. From the halls of political power to the stages of celebrity megachurches, another Jesus is being preached, another spirit is being received, and another gospel is being embraced. Donald Trump’s spiritual adviser Paula White traffics in prosperity theology and bizarre spiritual theatrics, Kathryn Krick fills auditoriums with people shaking, trembling and falling backward, modern “apostles” sell impartations and supernatural activation, deliverance ministers convince saved believers that they are inhabited by devils, and New Apostolic Reformation prophets dream of conquering America’s Seven Mountains through political power.
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” Ephesians 6:10-13 (KJB)
We see how New Age manifestation, Kundalini-style experiences, prophetic fortune-telling and the commercial sale of the “anointing” are all being baptized in Christian language and presented as movements of the Holy Spirit. But Paul warned us that our battle is not against flesh and blood; it is against principalities, powers, the rulers of the darkness of this world and spiritual wickedness in high places. These are evil days, the deception is accelerating, and the command of Scripture has never been more urgent: redeem the time, put on the whole armour of God, preach the word, test every spirit and, having done all, to stand. On this Sunday Service, we equip you for battle.

These are evil days, the deception is accelerating, and the command of Scripture has never been more urgent: redeem the time, put on the whole armour of God, preach the word, test every spirit and, having done all, to stand.
Central Truth
The greatest spiritual danger facing America in 2026 is not Christianity disappearing—it is biblical Christianity being replaced by a counterfeit supernatural religion that uses the name of Jesus while preaching another gospel, imparting another spirit and following another Jesus.
I. Recognize The Real Battlefield
Paul does not say that believers wrestle against politicians, preachers, institutions or other human beings. Behind the visible conflict is an invisible spiritual battle involving organized powers of darkness. The people caught up in deception are not the ultimate enemy. The enemy uses deception, pride, money, political power, religious spectacle and counterfeit manifestations to corrupt their minds.
“For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (KJB)
Application
Our weapons are not political power, emotional excitement or supernatural demonstrations. They are the word of God, prayer, sound doctrine and the preaching of the gospel of the grace of God, and the Kingdom of God.
II. Understand The Threefold Counterfeit
Satan’s masterpiece is not always an open denial of Christianity. It is a counterfeit version containing:
- Another Jesus
- Another spirit
- Another gospel
“But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” 2 Corinthians 11:3,4 (KJB)
“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.” 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 (KJB)
Application
The counterfeit will not necessarily look dark. It may look powerful, patriotic, prosperous, compassionate and intensely spiritual. The question is not, “Did something supernatural just happen?” The question is, “Does it agree with the rightly divided word of God?”
III. Expect Seducing Spirits Inside Religious Movements
Truth
Paul warned that the latter times would be characterized by people departing from sound doctrine and giving themselves to supernatural deception.
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;” 1 Timothy 4:1 (KJB)
“Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.” 2 Timothy 3:5 (KJB)
“But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:13 (KJB)
Application
A seducer may also be deceived. Not every false teacher consciously believes he is serving Satan. Some have mistaken emotional manipulation, psychological suggestion or another spirit for the Holy Spirit.
Sincerity does not convert error into truth.
IV. Test Every Spirit And Every Teacher
Truth
The Bible never commands believers to accept a supernatural manifestation simply because someone attaches the name of Jesus to it.
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1 (KJB)
“To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isaiah 8:20 (KJB)
“These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11 (KJB)
Five Questions Of Discernment
- Does it agree with the written word of God?
- Does it agree with Paul’s doctrine for the Body of Christ?
- Does it glorify Jesus Christ or the “anointed vessel”?
- Does it produce understanding and self-control or confusion and bondage?
- Does it direct people toward Scripture or make them dependent upon experiences?
V. Never Accept Manifestations As Proof Of God’s Approval
The supernatural is not automatically divine. Satan possesses the ability to produce counterfeit signs, wonders and manifestations.
“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” 2 Thessalonians 2:9,10 (KJB)
“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” Matthew 24:24 (KJB)
Rightly Divided Context
Matthew 24 and 2 Thessalonians 2 point doctrinally toward the coming time of Jacob’s trouble and the appearance of Antichrist. But they establish an essential principle: supernatural power does not authenticate the person exercising it. Antichrist will possess signs and wonders—and they will be satanic.
Application
Shaking, screaming, trembling, falling backward, strange bodily movements, supposed glory clouds and claims of miraculous healing prove nothing by themselves. The word of God judges the experience. The experience must never judge the word of God.
VI. Reject The Rise Of Modern “Apostles” And Spiritual Elites
The apostles and prophets were foundational offices. A foundation is laid once; it is not repeatedly reconstructed by every generation.
“And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.” Ephesians 2:20-22 (KJB)
The biblical apostles possessed unmistakable credentials:
“Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.” 2 Corinthians 12:12 (KJB)
Application
The New Apostolic Reformation has created an elite hierarchy of modern apostles, prophets, spiritual fathers and “anointed vessels.” These personalities claim special revelation, issue decrees, transmit impartations and demand submission to their spiritual authority.
The completed word of God is replaced by an endless stream of “God told me,” “I decree,” “I saw,” “I sensed” and “the Spirit revealed.” The 7 Mountains Mandate of the New Apostolic Reformation, something promoted by Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA, is actually the coming kingdom of Antichrist during the time of Jacob’s trouble and the Great Tribulation.
“And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.” Revelation 17:9 (KJB)
VII. Expose The Counterfeit Deliverance Industry
The saved believer is not waiting for an apostle to complete his deliverance. He is already complete in Jesus Christ.
“And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:” Colossians 2:10 (KJB)
Christ has already triumphed over the powers of darkness:
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.” Colossians 2:15 (KJB)
The believer’s body is inhabited by the Holy Ghost:
“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” 1 Corinthians 6:19,20 (KJB)
The believer has been sealed:
“In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:13,14 (KJB)
Application
Deliverance ministries frequently teach saved people to interpret sin, temptation, trauma, sickness and emotional problems as indwelling demons. This creates fear and dependence upon the deliverance minister. Paul does not tell Christians to search for ancestral spirits, identify family curses or undergo repeated exorcisms. He tells them to reckon the old man dead, renew their minds, mortify the deeds of the body and walk in the Spirit.
VIII. Reject The Sale Of Anointing, Impartation And Prosperity
Simon attempted to obtain spiritual power through money:
“And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.” Acts 8:18-20 (KJB)
Paul warned about ministers who connect money with godliness:
“Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. But godliness with contentment is great gain.” 1 Timothy 6:5,6 (KJB)
“For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” 1 Timothy 6:10 (KJB)
Peter warned that false teachers would turn believers into merchandise:
“And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.” 2 Peter 2:3 (KJB)
Application
When laying on of hands, prophecy, deliverance, healing or access to the “anointing” becomes connected to money, donations, expensive conferences or obedience to a personality, the ministry has entered the territory of Simon the sorcerer.
IX. Reject Christianized New Age Manifestation
New Age manifestation teaches people to use thoughts, declarations, visualization, vibrations or spiritual laws to create their desired reality. Biblical prayer does not command reality. Biblical prayer submits to the will of God.
“Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.” James 4:13-15 (KJB)
Application
“Speaking things into existence” is not biblical faith. Only God calls “those things which be not as though they were.” We ask, trust and submit. We do not “manipulate the universe” with words, energies, frequencies, declarations or vision boards.
X. Reject Seven Mountains Dominionism And Political Messianism
The Church is not commanded to conquer the world’s institutions and establish the kingdom before Jesus Christ returns. The Body of Christ possesses a heavenly citizenship and waits for its Saviour.
“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.” Philippians 3:20,21 (KJB)
Jesus said:
“Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.” John 18:36 (KJB)
Paul instructed Christ’s soldiers:
“No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.” 2 Timothy 2:4 (KJB)
Application
Christians may vote, serve and speak against evil, but America is not the kingdom of God, Donald Trump is not a messiah, and political victory is not spiritual revival. Jesus Christ will establish His kingdom at the Second Advent. The Church’s present commission is to preach the gospel, teach sound doctrine and call sinners out of the world—not conquer the Seven Mountains and Christianize the world.
XI. Put On The Whole Armour Of God
Paul’s answer to spiritual wickedness is not deliverance theater, spiritual mapping, apostolic decrees or political domination. It is the whole armour of God.
“Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;” Ephesians 6:14-18 (KJB)
The Armour Applied
| Armour | Counterfeit It Defeats |
| Truth | Lies, false prophecies and private revelation |
| Righteousness | The sin excused by supposed anointing |
| Gospel | Another gospel and political salvation |
| Faith | Fear, superstition and dependence upon manifestations |
| Salvation | Doubt, bondage and repeated “deliverance” |
| Word of God | New Age practices and doctrines of devils |
| Prayer | Self-willed declarations and manifestation rituals |
XII. Redeem The Time By Preaching The Word
Paul’s answer for the last days is not to chase signs. It is to preach the word.
“I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.” 2 Timothy 4:1-5 (KJB)
We redeem the time by:
- Studying the King James Bible rightly divided.
- Preaching the gospel of the grace of God.
- Exposing false doctrine with Scripture.
- Refusing to participate in counterfeit manifestations.
- Warning believers without becoming consumed by personalities.
- Standing in the truth when the majority follows experience.
- Making full proof of the ministry God has given us.
Closing Challenge: Mark Them, Avoid Them And Stand
“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.” Romans 16:17,18 (KJB)
The command is not to admire them, experiment with their manifestations or remain silent for the sake of religious unity. We are commanded to identify doctrine contrary to Scripture, warn the brethren and avoid those teaching it. The war is real, the battle hot, and the time short, and Christian, are we ever in a fight. The answer to spiritual wickedness in high places is a Bible-believing, gospel preaching, rightly dividing Christian who has put on the whole armour of God—and, having done all, refuses to move, standing firm in the strength of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Food Supplies Like Rice, Maize, Beans, Bananas, Cooking Oil And Salt Arrived At Glory Fellowship Orphanage This Morning To Feed 84 Hungry Children
Pastor Dancan reports that the children were in awe of the food that arrived for them this morning, beyond grateful to the NTEB’ers from America who are helping them
Yesterday, we told you about the 84 orphans at the Glory Fellowship Orphanage in Kisii, Kenya, who has not had anything to eat since Monday. We issued an urgent call for support, and you all are responding in a manner befitting servants of the Most High God. Thank you so much for that. We are also happy to report that all the children enjoyed a wonderful meal today, and will have enough food for about a week.
“If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?” James 2:15,16 (KJB)
Right now, we have stepped in to take care of the immediate need of the children at the orphanage, and are raising funds to keep them fed for about a month. During this time, we will be working with Pastor Dancan on determining the best path to get them self-sufficient by way of growing their own crops, having a milk cow, a goat and perhaps some hens for providing eggs. This video shows the children eating the food we provided for them this morning, they were thrilled beyond measure.
After going for 3 days without food to eat, the children at the Glory Fellowship Orphanage in Kenya are eating again. This food is being provided through God’s people at here NTEB. We are currently raising money to keep them fed while we help them to start a garden for crops and… pic.twitter.com/tI3vhryoou
