The Man In White

December 4, 2019

When interviewing an underground church leader in the Middle East, we asked, “What do you think of a Christian spokesperson saying the “Man in White” stories are made up?” Her response was astonishing.

“Where I live, we have never heard of this spokesperson, but EVERYONE has heard of the Man in White.”

— Underground Church Leader

You may have heard about this “Man in White” who has been going around Muslim nations for sometime, visiting Muslims in dreams, visions, and even when they are awake, joining them in various settings. It is an honor to hear these stories and share them with you. We pray your faith will be increased today as you hear this story of a man we will call Omar.

OMAR ENCOUNTERS THE MAN IN WHITE

For around 30 years, Omar was a drug addict, living in a village that was quite a distance from the large capital city of this closed Middle Eastern nation. One day, he ran away to the capital city because his uncle, who is a religious leader, wanted to send him to fight in the war. His uncle justified that if Omar was killed in battle it would be not a “big loss” since he was, after all, just a drug addict.

One day, Omar told the following dream to one of our disciple makers. In the dream, he was running while a Man in White was running behind him. Omar kept running and running until there was a wall in front of him and he couldn’t run anymore. Forced to stop, Omar turned around to see if the Man in White was still behind him. He was.

Omar was terribly afraid, but then the Man in White, who had wound scars in his hands, hugged him. Omar had never felt so much love as he felt when this man hugged him.

This is just one of many stories we want to share with you, which are the result of your prayers and generous giving to the Underground Church. Thank you for partnering with us. More stories to come…

Shavuot, Christianity, and the Law

We believe the Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are inspired by God and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct. (2 Timothy 3:15-17, 1 Peter 1:21)

We believe that there is one God, eternally existent who has revealed Himself as embodying the principles of relationship and association as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 3:22)

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father where He intercedes for us, in His present rule as Head of the Church, and in His personal return in power and glory. (Matthew 1:23, Luke 1:31)

We believe in the creation of mankind in God’s image, and the fall of man, resulting in universal guilt and total depravity; and the necessity, therefore, of redemption and restoration; that all men and women are lost spiritually and face the judgment of God, that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation, and that repentance of sin and faith in Jesus Christ is necessary for regeneration by the Holy Spirit. (Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 2:17)

We believe salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith toward the Lord Jesus Christ. By the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, being justified by grace through faith, man becomes an heir of God, according to the hope of eternal life. (Luke 24:47, John 3:3)

We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of eternal life in the presence of our Lord, and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation and eternal punishment. (Matthew 25:46, Mark 9:43-48)

We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and that all true believers are members of His body, the Church, which has the duty to preach the Gospel to every person. (Ephesians 1:22-23, Ephesians 2:22)

We believe that we must dedicate ourselves to prayer, to the service of our Lord, to His authority over our lives, and to the ministry of teaching, preaching, the prophetic, the apostolic, and evangelism. (Ephesians 4:11-13)

We believe in upholding the ordinances of the church of water baptism and holy communion.

The ordinance of baptism by immersion is commanded by the Scriptures. All who repent and believe in Christ as Savior and Lord are to be baptized. Thus, they declare to the world that they have died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in newness of life. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 10:47,48, Romans 6:4)

The Lord’s Supper, consisting of the elements—bread and the fruit of the vine—, is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:4), a memorial of His suffering and death (1 Corinthians 11:26), and a prophecy of His second coming (1 Corinthians 11:26), and is enjoined on all believers “till He comes!”
