Greetings to the once lost but now found sheep of the House of Israel. On Monday, April 2, in the year of our Lord, 2018, we, the members of this body referred to in Scripture as the Remnant, gathered together in obedience to the command that we are to observe the Passover forever, as evidenced by the following Scriptures. Exodus 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever. A second witness is found in Exodus 12:42. It is a night to be observed for the LORD for having brought them out from the land of Egypt; this night is for the LORD, to be observed by all the sons of Israel throughout their generations. Let me start out by saying this. Sadly, I know that there are those of you out there that will read this issue and not take these teachings to heart. In fact, some will dismiss them as foolishness. For you, the LORD has brought the following Scriptures to mind. 1 Corinthians 1:18 KJV For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1-21 KJV For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 1 Corinthians 2:14 KJV But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Luke 2:34 NASB …Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is appointed for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and for a sign to be opposed…” For those of you that love the LORD Jesus Christ and seek to continue to grow in the grace and knowledge of the LORD Jesus Christ, then this reader’s digest definition is for you. I believe of equally importance to the message that is preached is the preparation, in accordance with Ephesians 6:18. With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints…

In obedience to that command, we started the 2018 Passover Service with the following prayer. “Heavenly Father I want to thank You for this blessing to be able to teach the word of God to Your people, the Remnant. Father, I ask that even now You send Your ministering angels to prepare Your people’s hearts, minds and souls to receive these truths and especially to give them ears to hear and to understand ALL of what You have for them. Holy Spirit, I ask that You would grant me an anointing to teach the Word of God with power, clarity and authority. I pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in proclaiming it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. I fully acknowledge that none of this is from me and I give You all the glory, honor and praise for all that You have revealed to Your people. LORD Jesus, let not one word be spoken from this pulpit that is not the truth of the Word of God and does not benefit Your people the Remnant and glorify Your Holy Name. Thank You, Father, ahead of time, for answering this prayer, in the precious, powerful and Holy name of Jesus Christ, Amen.” We, the Bible-believing, God-fearing members of this body, gather each and every Passover evening in obedience to the Word of the LORD as well as to the ordinance from God. However, we gather for much more than that. For we, having asked for and received from our LORD, eyes to see, recognize this ordinance of keeping the Passover was as but a foreshadow of the greatest sacrifice ever offered up. The sacrifice our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ, upon the Cross! In Exodus 12:27 it says: It is the sacrifice of the Lords Passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt. We, the modern day children of Israel, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, gather each year on the evening of the Passover to remember that sacrifice of the LORD’s Passover, “Jesus Christ.” Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the LORD of lords, the Name without which no one can be saved. It says in Acts 4:12, Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. How is it we are saved? It is by the death of Jesus Christ on that Passover Day over 2000 years ago. For still others, they may have legitimately not known. For you, too, I share, the good news. Read about the second Passover in Numbers 9:1-14. Our Heavenly Father, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, in His infinite wisdom, grace and mercy, has made provisions for those of you that missed the observance of the Passover (on the
5
evening of April 2), thirty days later, which will be May 2, 2018. Rejoice and be grateful that you still have a chance to be obedient and keep the Passover. To make it easy as possible for you to heed this call, this Church will rebroadcast that exact service, including the partaking of the Passover (Communion) at 7:00 pm Mountain time on Wednesday evening, May 2. Of all of the responses we received regarding this year’s Passover service, predominantly the comment was, “Thank you!” I, too, never realized the importance of having compassion in regards to our brethren. I never saw all the examples of Christ’s compassion before the healing or the miracles. For that, I say, “Thank You, LORD Jesus, as that was Your intention.” After much prayer, I have canceled this year’s Branson Gathering. I have not been led by the Holy Spirit to have the gathering this year. Brethren, I pray that I’m not letting you down and that the decision to cancel Branson this year does not cause too much undue hardship. I can assure you that it was not made lightly, but only after much prayer and consideration. We are grateful for your continued prayers and support. I do want to encourage you to take the time to get still before the LORD and to draw nearer to Him. Any money that you would have spent to gather in Branson, be as Joseph, who stored up for the lean years, and buy food and provisions with it instead. Joseph was led to prepare for tough times and we want to urge you to prepare spiritually and physically for the times ahead. Daily, get prayed up and stay prayed up! Just as we get prepared for hurricanes, storms, and winter time, be as prepared as you can with food and water storage as well. We don’t put our faith in any of our “stuff,” but we are to be prepared and to take care of our own. I am convinced that we cannot “Hear Ye the LORD,” unless we learn to have compassion for those that are lost and suffering. This is another key to the complete obedience that the LORD requires of His people, the Remnant, before He can punish and destroy those that hate Him and His people. So, we dedicate this, the third issue of the 2018 DragonSlayer Newsletter entirely to, “Passover, the Greatest Compassion,” with the thought of accomplishing two primary goals. First, to educate those who may have never heard of the Passover, and second, an attempt to properly prepare your hearts, minds and souls to receive and hold onto these critical truths that the LORD Jesus Christ, through His grace, mercy and compassion, has revealed to us this year. To God be the glory always!In Jesus Christ’s service first, Pastor Peter John Peters’ second, Jonathan RR

Passover, the Greatest Compassion One of the first full messages I brought to you, the Remnant, in remembrance of the Passover was called, “Coming Out of the Desert,” back in 2015. Since that day, I’ve come to realize accomplishing that is a lot harder than it sounds. I am convinced that we have, in the past as well as now, continue to run into some of the same issues that the Israelites had encountered in the desert. Or in other words, “We still have too much Egypt in us.”
We are a people that have been steeped, (meaning surrounded or filled with a quality or influence) in some of the most excellent teachings that I believe have ever been put forth concerning the Word of God in the last century. It appears to me, that for the most part, the teachings from other ministries are watered down with the Judeo-Christian beliefs. For example, regarding the Jews being God’s “Chosen People” Doctrine, the Rapture Doctrine, the America-not-being-in-the-Bible dogma, the “Love, Love, Love,”
everyone spiel, the Perversion of the Gifts, and of course, who could forget the biggest one of all, “the Law’s been done away with brother,” leading up to acceptance and tolerance of sin under the guise of Grace and Mercy. Satan and his minions have done a masterful job over the many years, decades and even centuries, of taking the Holy things of God and perverting them. You know, like the greatest gifts. 1 Corinthians 12: 7-11 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. Brethren, what is critical to remember is this. Just because they have been perverted doesn’t mean that they are not in the Bible and for today. It doesn’t mean that they are not every bit as real today as they were in the time of ancient Israel. Let me give you an example that hits close to home, as in the Christian Israel message. It’s a message we have and hold dear to our hearts. We believe it with all that we are and we who have been given eyes to see and ears to hear know without that critical truth that the whole Bible falls apart and makes little sense. Without this truth it has to be patch-worked together.

In fact, to make any sense out of it at all, you have to believe the Bible says things that it does not and disregard many of the things that it clearly does say. But yet, within this rather remotely small, Christian-Israel movement, all across the country, and throughout the world, yes even within this small body of believers, there have been multiple false teachings! Falsehoods such as Satan doesn’t exist, Jesus isn’t God, immersion Baptism isn’t necessary, Communion can be taken by anybody and there are no consequences for partaking of it improperly, Genesis was just a bunch of made up stories, etc. The list goes on and on. For this message, entitled, “Passover, the Greatest Compassion,” I want to look at us, this little body of followers of Jesus Christ that this pulpit has the privilege, as well as responsibility, to minister to and ask the question of, what have we, as a people, done with this truth? A truth that is so incredible, that once you grasp it, it unlocks the mysteries and reveals the hidden truths in the living Word, that if people were to grasp it, it would change their lives. In a lot of ways, we have done the same thing with it that all of the other denominations have done with the truth’s they’ve found in the Bible, we’ve perverted it. How’s that, you say, Brother Jonathan? By leaving out the very thing that made the Israel message possible. LOVE. Because without LOVE you leave out such things as grace, mercy, forgiveness, kindness, sympathy and of course, compassion! Many of us have become so set in our ways, so hardened in our hearts and in our beliefs that we label anyone outside of our narrow way of thinking and beliefs, and yes, I did say narrow, as wrong. For many years now we have labeled people as snakes, Canaanites, two-fold sons of hell, wolves in sheep’s clothing, dirty birds, liars and whatever else we can think of. Ever ask yourself why do we do that? Don’t get me wrong, there are those that qualify for those titles, I’m not disputing that. But if you’re really honest with yourself, I mean honest, many of those you have labeled with these titles were labeled that way for one reason and one reason only. Because they do not believe exactly as we do. Again I ask, “Why do we do that?” I’m not 100% sure, however, I think it’s because we are as wrong on our side about some things as are the Judeo-Christian denominations are wrong about some of the things on their side. For example, Churches of all denominations, including ours, have been known from time to time, some

more than others, to teach wrongly. The good ones admit when they discover that they were wrong. Our Pastor was known to do just that from time to time. He called it eating crow, and used to say it’s really not that bad, tastes kind of like chicken. Yet, for the most part, at least up until the last thirty or so years ago, what was being taught in the Churches could be found in the Bible. The problem was, and is, that it has been twisted my man. Over the years, I’ve grown to realize that if you want to see what Satan is afraid of, then you have to look at what he’s worked the hardest to pervert. Just look at what he’s done with the Christian-Israel message. The persecution this Church went through, for boldly proclaiming that truth, having this little Church seized by the authorities. If you want to know more, order message #572, What Time Is It? In it, Pastor Peters tells the story far better than anyone ever could. I still get goosebumps when I listen to that message. And of course, who could ever forget our Pastor being labeled as the most dangerous man in the world, as well as many, many other things in between? So the question then becomes, you, the Remnant, who are we going to be? Who am I going to be? How do we take our message of truth and share it, while at the same time being willing and open enough to receive even greater truths? Truths that we may have simply missed, or truths that the LORD is just now revealing to this body of believers, in the proper time. How do we take this wonderful message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Truth of Christian-Israel, truly the greatest LOVE story never told, to the world? Pastor Peters preached on this exact thing in the book and CD messages, “The Greatest Love Story Never Told.” To understand that, you need to order and listen to A-006, (#’s 563,564, 593, 594 and the book). This is a message that if you dare to tell it, the world will turn on you. The bottom line is you can’t, and neither can I, without help. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. It simply can’t be done without the Holy Spirit of Scripture giving you understanding, prompting, and direction. One of the ways the Holy Spirit reveals itself to you is through the living Word of God. What was it that the latter part of the verse we just read said? And bring to your remembrance all that I said to you. For the most part, how we hear from God is through His Word. Then, once you have read the Word, that Word just kind of sits with you and then the Holy Spirit brings it to your remembrance, opens it up and expounds on it. Not only my need for it, but the need of this ministry to understand it.

9Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Scriptures for America DragonSlayer Volume 3, 2018 While searching the Scriptures for the things we might have overlooked in the past, I noticed something I’ve missed regarding Jesus Christ as our Passover. I’m sure that it has always been there in the past, but this time, it was prevalent, more than any time before. That was the word, compassion. The word compassion is used 35 times in both the Old and New Testaments. The definition of compassion is, a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who’s hurting, in pain or has misfortune. It is accompanied by a strong desire to help those that are suffering. Jesus Christ is the greatest example of someone with true compassion. Not only did Jesus have compassion and heal the people from physical, spiritual and mental suffering, He also showed us the greatest example of compassion as He became our Passover Lamb and died on the cross to save a wretch like you and me. 1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: There are vital lessons for all humanity in these Passover events. In early Egypt, God called the sacrificial lamb, “The LORD’s Passover.” In 1 Corinthians 5:7, we are shown that, “Jesus Christ is our Passover Sacrifice.” Through both of these sacrifices God promised that when He saw the blood, He would pass over you and the plague will not come near your tent and destroy you. So how is it that we contact that precious, holy, healing, cleansing, protective Blood? Through repentance and proper immersion Baptism. Psalms 78:38-39 KJV But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath. For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again. The American Standard Version reads; Psalm 78:38 But he, being merciful, forgave their iniquity, So could it be that one of the elements necessary for forgiveness is compassion? But yet how many people do we look upon with scorn? Oh, we think we are judging rightly, we think we are righteous in our judgments and that we, the Holy Ones of Israel, have it all figured out.

Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Well, let me tell you something, we might be close to having it all figured out... when we can say, “Be healed,” and blind eyes see, deaf ears open, arms and legs are restored, and when we can say to the dead rise up and have it be so. But until that day, we must continue to hunger and thirst for the truth so that, LORD willing (and He is willing) someday we may have it all figured out. However, for now, since we obviously don’t have it all figured out, maybe, just maybe, we should not be so judgmental and so self-righteous. Maybe, just maybe, what we need is compassion for that person that we’ve mocked and/or laughed at, or scorned and judged. Is it not in the realm of possibility that that person might deserve compassion, just as Jesus had for you and for me? Perhaps having compassion on that person might reveal to you that as a child they were beaten every day, or worse yet, raped, or maybe they were abandoned by their mother or father or both. Maybe compassion would say, as God said in Psalms 78:39, they are but flesh, a wind that passeth away. We don’t know what their flesh, their heart, their mind and their spirit has been through. Yet, far, far too often all we want to do is judge, and even condemn them. Let me confess here and now before you all that I am guilty of not having compassion for the very people that our God had enough compassion for, to send HIS only begotten Son to be beaten, tortured, and hung on a cross for. Let me confess here and now before you all that I am guilty of judging when I ought not, of being self-righteous, and of not even approaching anything that would even look like mercy, far too often. Father, forgive me. I confess. Will you? Or am I the only one that the LORD is pulling down the strongholds in my life and showing what compassion really means? Compassion. What kind of compassion did our LORD Jesus have? As I said earlier, I am sure the word compassion was there, but somehow in all of the times I’ve read these Scriptures, I’ve missed it. I’ve missed the compassion that Christ had, the passion that Christ had for His people, our brothers and sisters according to the flesh. In Strong’s Concordance, Compassion is # G4697, to have the bowels yearn that is, (figuratively) feel sympathy, to pity: be moved with compassion. How often do we look at people and feel nothing? Well, maybe contempt, maybe disgust, maybe judgment. But what was it in Scripture that Jesus did? Matthew 9:35-38
11Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Scriptures for America DragonSlayer Volume 3, 2018
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest. Jesus was moved with compassion because He saw them as sheep having no shepherd. Then what did He say? Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest. What do you think at least one of the attributes of these laborers for the harvest would be? Could it be compassion? I can’t see Jesus being moved with compassion for these sheep without a shepherd, then sending in judgmental, self-righteous, hard hearted laborers. Can you? Is it possible that the reason not many of us have been sent into the harvest is because we lack compassion? Matthew 14:13-14 KJV When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out of the cities. And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. I know many of us can say we’ve got compassion for the person right in front of us that has cancer or some other physical ailment, but don’t you think that if that compassion extended further to the lost among us then we’d have more power? After all, in a harvest you don’t go and harvest just one stalk of corn or one head of wheat, do you? Maybe the lesson we are to learn is that we need to find compassion for the whole field, so that we can bring in the whole harvest. Matthew 15:30-32 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them: Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel. Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way. Jesus had compassion for the MULTITUDE, the whole field. How many times in Scripture does it show that compassion preceded miracles? Perhaps we would witness more miracles if we exhibited more compassion. The compassion of Jesus, represented in the Bible for the multitudes, fed thousands. What does your compassion feed? What has my compassion fed? Matthew 20: 29-34 KJV

Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Scriptures for America DragonSlayer Volume 3, 2018
And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him. And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David. And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David. And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you? They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened. So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him. How many people do we see along the road, or in the aisles at the supermarket, that the feeling of compassion never even enters our mind or our spirit? What does this word mean again? To have the bowels yearn, that is, feel sympathy, to pity. How many people are still blind, both physically and spiritually, because we don’t have the compassion of our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ? How many people have we walked by, that, maybe just one seed of compassion may be all that is needed? It may be a seed that won’t sprout for months or even years, but one thing is for sure, if we never plant it, it will never sprout. Mark 1:40-42 KJV And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. Jesus had enough compassion to touch a leper. Think how the leper must have felt. How long, how many years had it been since someone not only touched him, but didn’t run in fear as he approached? Sadly, some of us, that call ourselves Christians, can’t even find the compassion to speak to someone. Mark 9:19-22
13
He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. The evil, demonic spirit had entered this young man when he was but a child. What was it that finally set him free? Compassion. Sympathy. Pity. Then the miracle. How many fathers are out there that are looking for compassion? They are losing their children, their grandchildren. Sure, we can stand here and judge as to why, but why can’t we do like our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ and find some compassion? Maybe pray with them, anoint their children and grandchildren and claim them to the service of the King of kings and LORD of lords, rebuking the Devil, canceling Satanic assignments and forbidding the enemy from operating in their lives. Do you think that this father in the Bible story would have listened to Jesus if He started with, “You filthy sinner, you should have done this or that!” Or, “This is the reason your child is this way!” Or whatever else you and I have used in the past? No! That’s not what Jesus did! He started with compassion first and then a miracle. I would bet you, that man and his son became followers of Jesus Christ! Mark 9:23- 27 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. Jesus answering the cry to have compassion was able to set a child free and a family was restored. Luke 7:11-15 And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people. Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the city was with her. And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not. And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare him stood still. And he said, Young man,
Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Scriptures for America DragonSlayer Volume 3, 2018
14
I say unto thee, Arise. And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother. When I read this story I think how wonderful it would have been at many of the funerals I’ve attended as well as officiated if I could say, “Young man, I say unto thee arise.” I know several fathers that would give all that they have to wield that kind of power. I have often pondered how many mothers will be standing at the gates of heaven waiting for their sons to walk in, and how many sons will not enter into those gates because someone didn’t have enough compassion for them to share the Gospel with them; the truth regarding the death, burial and resurrection of our LORD and Savior, Jesus Christ! Luke 10:27-37 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise. Look at what the Apostle Paul said in Romans 7:14-15. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. The Common English Version makes it clearer. Romans 7:15 In fact, I don’t understand why I act the way I do. I don’t do what I know is right. I do the things I hate. Thank the LORD Jesus that God had compassion upon Paul. Think about yourselves. How many of us don’t understand why we act or do the things we do, and we hate it. Remember to look at all the knowledge of truth that we have been given. What about
Passover: The Greatest Compassion
Scriptures for America DragonSlayer Volume 3, 2018

those that don’t know? What about those with a past that you and I can’t even fathom?
People are hurting. Our people, our brothers and sisters in the flesh, as Abraham called them, are hurting. They are in sin and in spiritual anguish, many are sick, and dying. What if we were to offer them compassion? What if we had the same compassion for them that Christ has for them? The same compassion He has for you and me? There is something I’ve come to see in my spirit that paints a picture of compassion and forgiveness and actually brings it to the next level. What if, in our walk, our daily interaction with the world, we not only looked upon the people we see that appear to be living in sin and bondage, in disgust and contempt, but instead we had compassion for them? I have been doing just that the past several weeks, and I believe it makes a difference! When you come upon someone that you know is lost and maybe tormented, sick or depressed (I tell you, you will, because they are all around us), extend your hand towards them and just say, “Heavenly Father, bring this person to repentance, forgive them and remove them from the kingdom of darkness and bring them into the Kingdom of Light!” Could it be that our compassion, our forgiveness could change a person, even if we never get to utter a word to them? I maintain that the answer is Yes! Could it be that our lives would be changed, that maybe we could escape some of the things we are dealing with, if only we acted as our LORD did? Again I maintain that the answer is Yes! How did He act? What did Jesus do? Another thing to consider is that if you don’t forgive you won’t be forgiven. In addition, you’ll

be turned over to the tormentors (read Matthew 18:23-35). I believe that in that day when you need compassion from our LORD, if you’ve never shown any, you may find He doesn’t have it for you. God remembered they were flesh. What if we remembered that they are our kinsman according to the flesh, as Abraham stated? You people, the members of the body of this ministry, have a passion for the truth. What is compassion but a passion, a feeling of deep sympathy or sorrow for another that is hurting, in pain, lost or suffering? Remember Jesus Christ by His willingness to suffer and be crucified. Remember how He became our Passover sacrifice and in doing so became the greatest example of the compassion that we are to have for one another that the world has ever seen. RR

Oklahoma - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Greetings Jonathan, I trust this finds you and your family feeling fine and dandy with some good, spring weather. I’d like to think the LORD will bless us with an early and beautiful spring. We already receive more blessings than we realize. I often wonder why God even allows the world to go on as wicked as people have gotten, but we know that there is a day coming when a big change will take place! I pray your Church is full each time the doors open and you keep up your good work and God bless you all! Indiana - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dear SFA, Thank you very much for your faithfulness to me in receiving your Church DVD’s and the DragonSlayer Newsletter. All of them are so rich in the truth of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ, just as Pastor Peters diligently and faithfully preached and served His most Holy Name through every word in Scripture. It’s so true what you teachers of truth mention frequently, not to take anything for granted but to praise, honor and give God the Glory for all things! Carry on, you three, who are God’s godly men of truth, dedicated to this service so that many more of His Remnant shall be filled with His cup and running over in joy.

SFA, Thank you for the good articles in the Newsletter. Thank you also for staying in the battle. We need all the good Godly warriors the LORD supplies. Minnesota - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Dear Jonathan RR, I just read your article anointing universities, schools, etc. I do this pretty much every day. I have also walked our own property and our town a couple of times last year as things are really bad here. Lately, two people told me that things seem to be getting better. Before I do this I pray these prayers in full. Father in the name of Jesus we ask that you would release your warrior angels and heavenly hosts. We decree and declare that they would take us off the enemy’s radar and scramble the enemies’ frequencies (air waves). Your kingdom must come now, your will must be done right now as in the heavens also on the earth. Amen. Bind the spirit of backlash and retaliation. Canada - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Encourage: to give someone support, confidence and hope.
We all could use some encouraging from time to time, couldn’t we?
Isaiah 35:3 reminds us to, Encourage the exhausted, and strengthen the feeble.
1 Thessalonians 5:14 also tells us to, ...encourage the fainthearted, help the weak…
We know that love covers a multitude of sins (1 Peter 4:8) and Hebrews 3:13 tells us one way that we can show that love for one another. But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called Today, lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Order SFA’s “Encouragement Packet.” It includes three booklets, including, “Spiritual Manna for the Wilderness,” “Rejoice Always,” and “The I AM Confessional.” These are chock full of encouraging Scriptures that we need to be reminded of daily. In these positive and motivating booklets, Pastor Peters uses the Word of God to remind us of the promises of God and to encourage us to seek out the LORD and His Will in our life. Order a packet for yourself, and a few to give away to bless and encourage others as well. See the order form for details.

WHAT TIME IS IT?
What Time Is It?
In February of 1993, armed sheriff deputies seized the Church where Pastor Peters preached. They then posted this sign, that is STILL on the door at the LaPorte Church of Christ. Two days later, the very next Sunday, Pastor and his congregation WERE in the Church for services, and this is the message that Pastor Peters preached.
It is a truth-filled and prophetic message that rings as true today as it did then.
