Re: Further Prayer Request
Here is some more correspondence from John DevaKumar in India. They surely need our prayers.
Dear Sister,
By God's grace we are fine here.The persecution of Christians spread to other states of India.Hindu fundamentalist groups like Vishwa Hindu Parishad(VHP) and Bhajrang Dal etc continued to attack Christians in other parts of India .They targeted mainly large established churches like Catholic Church etc this time.Many large believers churches were also attacked.Due to this many of the believers churches are scattered.They are afraid of gathering in one place.So they start assembling in different places.that too in small groups.
Sometimes I think it may be correction send by God Himself. I think like in first century when there is a persecution and when the believers scatter , Church will grow.Please continue to pray for the believers who are suffering and pray that none of them will be discouraged.
Lord saved me and my wife from a terrible disaster on 13 -09- 08.We were shopping in one of the near by shopping centre.Hardly fifty meter away a bomb exploded and 12 people died on the spot and six more died later in hospital.Five bombs exploded all over Delhi and more than thirty people lost their lives.Elections are fast approaching and to whip up communal passions Hindu and Muslim fundamentalists are doing these type of activities.
Recently one of our friend who still fellowship with LSM came to our house .We talked with him till late in night .He kept on repeating true believers are God but not Godhead.But he also told some practises of the blended brothers.Recently at a blending meeting one of the new LSM church member went without registration.He was not aware about the rules of LSM. When food was served he went to take his food but those serving food (blended brothers) refused to give him food and he was asked to go out to take his food from near by restaurant . This is the "nature they got after eating and drinking Christ" and after they became so called gods.
So sister hope every one in your family and those who fellowship with you are fine.
Continue to remember us in your prayers.
Your brother in Christ
John DevaKumar
