Baptism conducted recently by Pastor Paul and Bibles4Mideast
Pastor Paul and his team are courageously spreading the Gospel in
restricted countries in South Asia and the Middle East. A very pointed,
dire death threat he received recently caused him to reach out and
request prayer from believers around the world.
This is the text of the death threat he received October 15th:
“Hey Paul, son of Kafir,
You are not pastor paul. You are bastard paul. You betrayed your
mother, Deenul Islam. We know where you are and what you are doing. We
will not allow you to go further at any cost.
You are attracting and misguiding innocent people to the hell by
magics and vulgar tricks to the hated and cursed christian religion. You
are not worthy to live any more. Time is up to throw your meat for pigs
and dogs.
Your days are counted. Your head and body will be hanging in your
gate face to face within no time. Your family and children are not
excused. The world will see and laugh at the end of a cursed man and his
family.
No doubt we will kill everybody who followed your hated religion
unless they turn back to Islam. You are going to see the sea of blood of
your people this week before your execution. Mind it.”
Pastor Paul remains unbowed by the malicious warning. “I don’t mind
if anything happen to me,” he says. “For me to live is Christ and to die
is gain.”(Phil. 1:21)
However, he is concerned about the work continuing. “More than 1200
people are getting ready for baptism,” he notes. “In Saudi Arabia itself
our gospel teams and underground churches selected about 70 places for
baptism services. We plead to God that not even one baptism candidate or
attendees should face any harm from anywhere.
“I ask our Lord to take my life and save all of them.”
Pastor Paul requests prayers for protection, support, and provision to meet the needs of the new believers and the ongoing work.
“Our Lord Himself will provide everything,” he says.
