We had been "plugging" the booking of Jacob Prasch from Moriel Ministries for several weeks before last night's meeting, and how glad we did, for we all had a superb time of ministry and fellowship at our new venue, and also the home of our great hosts, John and Di Whittle, namely "The Upper Room" NEWPORT.
Jacob (who is pictured below) is a dynamic international speaker who pulls no punches and calls it exactly as it is. We have put a couple of video teachings on this blog recently to give you a flavour of this great man of God, and last night the former New Yorker lived up to his ever growing reputation with another masterpiece of exposition.
The Jewish New Yorker, (who now lives in Guildford in Surrey) is equally popular on both sides of the Atlantic. Having just returned from the USA and just last week in Israel, Jacob spent his first weekend back in the UK at our beloved South Wales, taking Saturday evening and Sunday morning meetings at the Moriel affiliate fellowship at The Church Of The Redeemer in SWANSEA .
On his way back to England, he stopped off at our growing fellowship in CROSS KEYS last night, to speak on a fascinating and enlightening subject titled "THE SILVER TRUMPETS", which had a full house attendance enthralled for an hour and a half. People travelled from as far as Devon, as well as many others from places such as Cardiff, Bridgend, Merthyr, Tonyrefail, Pontypool, and other local villages in the Newport area.
Taking us through passages in Revelation, First Thessalonians, Matthew's Gospel, and First Corinthians relating to the various "trumpet calls" of the end times, this fine Jewish orator then based his excellent message on NUMBERS chapter ten.
A full DVD will shortly be available of this splendid exposition of the Scriptures. However in brief summary, Jacob's main theme was comparing the warning trumpets of the Hebrew Scriptures with the warnings of Yeshua and the Apostle Paul. Firstly the nation of Israel and secondly the Gentile nations were blinded and not listening at all, and that thirdly, even the professing church was ignoring the Bible prophesies of the imminent return of Christ.
Thus the warnings which should be sounding clear and aloud today by many are only being acted upon by just the faithful remnant of believers who remain faithful to the infallible Word of God. Jacob also warned against the FALSE PROPHETS and teachers of these last days such as Rick Warren, Mike Bickle, Rick Joyner, Benny Hinn, John Piper, and Todd Bentley in the USA, and Gerald Coates and Steve Chalke here in the UK, and other apostates such as the leaders running the false "Welsh Outpouring" in Cwmbran.
There is far too much teaching to cover in this brief report, but the event was recorded by our good friend "Parcel" Paul, and if you would like a DVD please email me, and I will pass on your details to him. There will just be a minimal cost of around £3 to cover the costs of production materials and post and packing, as we are not looking to make a profit from this fabulous gathering.
Many thanks to John and Di for opening their home, "THE UPPER ROOM" again, and for those who braved the wet and windy conditions to pack out the venue. Thanks also to Gerry and "The Peace Makers" for leading our praise and worship, to Paul for recording the event, and to Hazel and Di for proving a fabulous feast of food for the fellowship which followed.
Maranatha Blessings,
Nev.
