Fast forward to 2011, nearly 2012

Since the first post, a long time ago to see if the blog would work, email teaching has led numerous friends to become believers in Jesus. China has been keeping me up late nights. There are so many stories to tell! "I began with my dictionary in one hand and your lessons in the other," said one business man. He now sends students to me.

Another student said, "My mother died. She has come to live inside me for the past several days. She was a Buddhist as is my sister." This student is a believer and faithful to the Lord. She followed my instructions to know that it was not her Mom, instead it was a deamon pretending to be her Mom. Just talk to the deamon and insistently tell it to get out of your life in the NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!" This student reported that her "Mother never came back to haunt her."

By email, we talk in depth digging the text from Genesis to Revelation. It's easy to send attachments that avoid being blocked, especially in parts of China. (Other parts have blocked my email and web address.) So, I have several addresses and web addresses. We keep the fires hot! After a while, this student preaches often to a group of 20 or 30 believers. It works! Souls are being saved!

The Internet teaching works in more ways than one -- Internet Vs email. The more recent Internet alternative is registered with Google. It has registered over 130,000 students. Half drop out; but, the other half contiue to study English grammar and read Bible stories that lead them to faith in the Lord and even to the planting of new churches in more than one country. These students have come from every single nation in the world. Thank you Google!

My Internet students are hand picked. One, a theology student in Egypt, shares her faith and is learning how to avoid Satan's TV evangelist who make big bucks as they pretend to heal the sick. They yet have to accomplish a single organic healing according to private interviews of those on stage who are made to fall back when they step forward. This is an old saw! You bet! I keep the Internet lessons going. It's too easy not to use this method. But, to wring out the towel and get down to business of teaching Bible, email is a great tool. I only have to be sure that safety is protected. You already know about how Egypt Coptic churches are being burned and the Christians are being run over with the army tanks now controlled by that other radical religious group. It's the same group responsible for 911 in America. Egypt is under seige! (Has been...; past perfect tense.)

Gotta go. My students are calling. Oh yes, my Skype rings during the midnight hours -- from China. (I have a camera on my end - "You have a cat!" Yep! Ela walked across my keyboard for the world to see." Too much fun!

Maybe, I can wet your appitite again to "...make disciples in all the world..."
