Most people don't realize this, but there is such a mountain of evidence for the Christian faith that it would take more than a lifetime to learn it all. For example, did you know that the ancient Hebrew name for God actually contains the message of the gospel of Jesus Christ? In paleo-Hebrew (the kind of Hebrew used before the Babylonian captivity), not only did each word convey a meaning, but each letter was a "word picture" that conveyed a meaning as well. In fact, when you combine the meanings of all the letters in a particular word in paleo-Hebrew, it actually gives you a much clearer idea of what the word actually means. (Read More.....)

There is nobody who is out of the reach of God. Not even the son of a prominent Hamas leader. Many of you have heard of the new book "Son Of Hamas" by now. It is the tale of a young man who was born into the family of a top Hamas leader. His whole life growing up was about radical Islam. But God got a hold of him. Eventually he became one of the most important spies Israel ever had. He also gave his life to Jesus Christ and became a Christian. Posted below is a recent interview with him on Fox News....

A 3 year old boy in Sapele, Nigeria has been raised from the dead after being prayed for by evangelist Daniel Kolenda of the Christ For All Nations evangelistic organization. This happened near the end of a multi-day crusade that Christ For All Nations was holding in Sapele. Crowds at the crusade have been as large as 200,000 people for a single service. Miracles are regularly seen at the crusades that Christ For All Nations put on, but for a 3 year old boy to be raised from the dead is truly extraordinary. 
As far as modern science has come, the truth is that there are still many ancient mysteries that continue to completely baffle the greatest minds of our day. Some of these ancient mysteries absolutely defy rational explanation and they stand in stark opposition to the accepted versions of history and science that we have all been taught. Many of these ancient mysteries relate directly to the Bible. In fact, many of these ancient mysteries represent yet another kind of evidence for the Christian faith. For those who study Christian apologetics, these mysteries are often some of the topics that have the most "sizzle". Most Christians do not even know about most of the things that you will read about below. 
One of the most dramatic developments in prophecy is seen in what God is doing through Muslims throughout the Middle East and even in the United States. Many Muslims are seeing dreams and visions of Jesus. They are coming into churches explaining that they have already converted and now need a Bible and guidance on how to follow Jesus. This is in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward,that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,your old men shall dream dreams,and your young men shall see visions" This is what happening in these last days. Muslims Encountering Jesus In Unusual Dreams Reported that among African Muslims, "42 percent of the new believers come to Christ through visions, dreams, angelic appearances and hearing God's voice." Over one-fourth of those surveyed state quite emphatically that dreams and visions were key in drawing them to Christ and sustaining them through difficult times. Rick Love, International Director of Frontiers, has recognized the pattern as well. He writes that, "Just as God used a vision to convert Paul, in like manner He reveals Himself to Muslims through dreams and visions. Just as God prepared Cornelius to hear the Gospel through a vision, so God is preparing a multitude of Muslims to respond to His good news." 
Very few Christians understand that the Biblical festivals in the Torah contain extraordinary evidence for the Christian faith. You see, for centuries before Jesus ever came to this earth, God had His people celebrate festivals which were themselves prophecies of important events which were to take place hundreds of years later. In this article, we will examine three examples of this. Three times every year the Lord had His people go up to Jerusalem to celebrate a festival: Passover (Pesach), Pentecost (Shavout) and The Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot).
