The Chinese
King James Version Bible
A Triumph
and a
Treasure
T
he development of this
Chinese King James Bible
is the result of the careful
and prayerful cooperation by
many. Believers in China noticed
that the existing Chinese “Union
Bible” contained many differences
from the Bible Brother Branham
quoted. They recorded the differences as they came across them.
They also discovered that a group
of denominational Christians in
Hong Kong had noticed some
omissions in the “Union Bible”,
and had attempted a translation.
In 2011, Bible Believers, taking
this version as a starting point,
began working to improve it.
The first revision was finished in
2012, but the Bible is no normal
book; accuracy is paramount. A
review by many eyes was necessary to create a version not only
worthy of the original English
King James Version, but also
worthy of the many believers who
would depend on it for Spiritual
guidance.
Over the next two years the
team reviewed the entire draft at
least three more times, cover to
cover, consulting also with native
English speakers to be certain of
the sense of each passage. Still not
complete, the draft was sent for
review to a larger team of native
Chinese speakers. The King
James Version was placed side by
side with the Union Bible, and
carefully reviewed. More than
20 believers examined the draft,
including Pastors, Ministers,
Message Translators, University
English Teachers who believe the
Message, and other Believers both
in China and North America.
Every person involved was a Message Believer. Deep respect for
the timeless Truth of the scriptures dominated the atmosphere.
The final draft that emerged
was not rushed, but was bathed
in prayer, and was reviewed by
many reverent, sanctified eyes.
Knowing they were handling the
HISTORICAL NOTE:
When the translators for the English King James
Bible convened in 1604, it was the culmination of a
process. A group of believers known as the Puritans
had become increasingly unsatisfied with the “Bishop’s Bible,” then in use, finding flaws in it, and crying for reform both of it, and of the whole Church of
England. This pattern has repeated in China.
The Bishop’s Bible, like other Bibles of the time,
was based largely on the translation of one man,
William Tyndale, and his effort was inspired by the
earlier work of John Wycliff. Though these men were
anointed for their work, no single individual had
sufficient perspective to produce the kind of Bible
translation the masses were crying for.

spiritual lifeline of millions of
future readers, the process was
allowed to come to full maturity.
Truly the making of the Chinese
King James Bible was a team
effort, and the final result can be
received with confidence that the
utmost care has been taken to deliver the most accurate rendering
possible.
For final publishing, it was
decided to place the Union Bible
and the Chinese King James
Version side by side in one volume, providing the reader with
full disclosure of what has been
altered and where. Readers will
see that where the Union Bible
was in agreement with the King
James Version, its language has
been left untouched. Interestingly,
this was also the policy of the
English King James translators of
1611, who modified the Bishop’s
Bible only where necessary (see
Historical Note below).
A government approved printer
The King James Version ended up being the work
of 47 scholars, working for 7 years, commissioned to
carefully review every sentence, phrase, and word,
for both accuracy and prose. The translators did not
make a new translation from the very beginning.
The words of prior English Bibles rang loudly in the
ears of churchmen, and these versions were consulted to maintain harmony of style. The King James
Version ended up being a revision of many earlier
English Bibles. It is claimed that over 90% of the
final language is pure Tyndale, an astonishing compliment to his work, but the revision and correction
of the other 10% was indispensable.
Though not intentional, the development of the
Chinese King James Bible had many similarities.
From the Desk of
Brother Ed Byskal...
Dear Friends:
I am delighted to announce
to you that the new King
James Version of the
Chinese Bible is now
completed. This Bible is
unlike ANY Bible on earth
and is truly a Triumph and
a Treasure!
has been selected for the initial
publication, and we are happy to
announce that the Chinese King
James Bible is off the press and
ready for use!
The release of the Chinese King
James Bible is truly a triumph of
faith and cooperation, a treasure
that every Chinese believer may
welcome with joy. The Union
Bible New Testament is a translation based primarily on only
TWO ancient manuscripts, and
has many omissions. But the King
James Version is based on the
agreement of over 5000 ancient
manuscripts. Finally, a full 400
years after the English King James
version was released, the Chinese
people have available to them
in their own language ALL the
words that have been traditionally handed down to the Protestant
church.
upon it that placed it in the center
of every spiritual revival in the
English speaking world for the
next 400 years. We hope and
expect the same will be true in
China. The King James Bible was
the choice of William Branham,
placing him as the latest in a long
stream of anointed ministers who
made the same choice.
“I’m satisfied to take the King
James…It’s waved the storms longer than any translation yet, and I
just believe it that way.”
Israel and the Church, 53-0325
Praise be to God that now the
Chinese speaking people have
their very own copy of the most
anointed Bible version ever
produced.
Allow me to share just a
very brief background of
this indescribable Spiritual Event.
The incredible achievement of this Chinese King
James Version of the Bible is most unique in every
way largely because it is solely the work of the most
dedicated Believers I have ever been privileged to
work with.
In recent years, as the Message began to spread into
China, it became evident to the Believers that their
Union Bible in many instances did not compare with
what Brother Branham was reading from the King
James Version English Bible.
The Believers then began to meticulously diarize all
errors and omissions. It became increasingly evident
that something HAD to be done; the people of China
have a right to an accurate Bible. A decision was
taken to undertake the painstaking task of providing
all Chinese-speaking people of the world, with the
most accurate King James Version of the Holy Bible.
With great joy and hearts filled with thanksgiving
to God, we can now officially announce to you that
these Bibles are now printed and available to the
public.
THERE’S MORE...
The success of the English King
James Bible has been legendary,
as God poured out a blessing
A Bible App has also been completed and is available
to read on your Android hand-held device. Soon
it will be available for computer. I am overjoyed to
announce that Bible verses Brother Branham used
or referred to have been identified, and with just a
tap of your finger you may go instantly to any and
every message where Brother Branham referred to
any given scripture and read what the Prophet of God
said about that scripture.
Simply put, God’s vindicated Prophet becomes the
commentary of this Bible.
Bible Believers invites you to rejoice with us at
this milestone event. We trust that God will use
the labors of all who have sacrificed so much to
complete and present this labor of love to the Bride
Body of Jesus Christ.
God bless you,

Nestor Espanola introducting the Message
B
rother Bounmie and Brother Bounchuen continue strong in the communist country of Laos. Despite the persecution
that these two ministers suffer, many are embracing the Message of the Hour. Only one soul filled with the Holy Spirit
can manifest the Word. With God, he can turn his country upside down. Recently a local pastor asked about Matthew
28 (Baptism in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit). He told them that if we don’t believe this, why don’t we just peel
off the page instead and just leave Acts 2:38 (Baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ). They replied that they believe
Acts 2:38, however they also believed Matthew 28, so we have no reason to peel it off. Nevertheless, one can read in the Bible
that the apostles baptized more than 8,000 souls in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Again it was asked of the local pastor
if the apostles made a mistake in doing this, because if this is wrong, he should be peel off that page in the Bible as well. The
local pastor then realized that he personally needs this right baptism. In this simple way the Message is spread.
Above:
Brother Bounchuen (at
left) sharing
the Message
despite
opposition
Brother Bounchuen, you may recall, was the pastor that got kicked out in his church and community after receiving the
Message. With the help of Believers in the US and Australia he was able to purchase a small piece of land and build a house.
He testified in his broken English that after accepting the Message, he experienced such freedom he never felt while he was in
the denomination. He was encouraged to press on amidst persecution and he never felt one bit of regret for standing on the
Word of God ...and God did not overlook his sacrifice. It is said in Isaiah 41:10 ...fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed,
for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. News reached him
that the village he left was cursed after he was kicked out and the people in the community wanted him and his family to
return. Indeed, God’s Word never changes! As it is written in Romans 8:31...If God is for us, who can be against us? Now the
government is evicting ALL the people in the community out of their land with no apparent reason! They can now clearly see
their mistake and Brother Bounchuen’s new blessed life while they suffer the consequence. They are begging for him to return
but it’s now too late.
Brother Bounmie, on the other hand, continues to preach the Message in the denominational church where he attends.
They weren’t able to kick him out because the members believe him and they find no fault in what he teaches. His courage to
preach the Message with the danger of imprisonment is truly inspiring. Fortunately, the police find no reason to arrest him as
well. Even though their trip was cut short during last year’s Asian Ministers’ Conference in Manila, the police told them that
it is not them that wants the arrest but the bishops in his own church. All the threats were to no avail and Brother Bounmie
continues to preach the Gospel and even baptize souls! This makes their mother church hate him more and more everyday

ne bright morning, Brother Busobozi
(Brother Bus) had an appointment to
meet someone but because the person
could not make it, Brother Bus along with
Brother Moges decided to check at the post
office where two boxes of Message books from
End Time Message Tabernacle in Edmonton,
Canada had arrived for him to pick up. This
was the second time to pick up such Message
materials, but this time Mr. Berhanu, the post
officer, can’t help but ask what they came to
receive. Brother Moges answers him, “Megebu” interpreted to mean “Food” which he
later clarified to the man as “the bread of life.”
Excited, the man asks to receive some messages, which Brother Bus is happy to give to him.
Mr. Berhanu then introduced his son, Million,
to Brother Bus over the phone.
As a result, Million who is a young Presbyterian theologian in his twenties, together
with Theodore, a highly educated man and lay
leader of the currently unofficial Presbyterian
Church in Ethiopia, meet with Brother Bus
during a two week period. Both hear about
the End Time Message for their first time;
The Godhead, Original Sin, Predestination,
Church Ages, Malachi 4, The Holy Ghost
among others were topics of discussion during
the time of their meetings. They were on the
verge of being convinced that it is the Truth,
however, they could not make the decision
because then it was a great price for them to
pay. Not only on the part of the finances but
also on their doctrine of Hyper Calvinism that
gave them liberty to do whatever they pleased
in life because salvation is by grace and not by
works. Pray for these two men that God may
continue to reveal Himself to them.
Meanwhile; through these two men, there
was a third man whose name is Nat, an Eritrean who was part of the fellowship of the
Presbyterian Church but was forced to dig
deeper into the Word after hearing Brother
Bus expound the present Truth. He was com-
pelled to borrow a small player of the Message
from Brother Bus so as to hear the voice of the
End Time Prophet.
Nat, being an Eritrean refugee couldn’t get
a job because it is illegal for a refugee to be
employed in Ethiopia. He related to Brother
Bus how he could not take care of his wife and
several children due to this ordeal. Touched,
Brother Bus felt to ask him if he believed in
prayer (the Presbyterian Church doctrine he
has been attending believes days of miracles is
past) and Nat agreed. This compelled Brother
Bus to tell him that he wished he could help
his family with money but since he did not
have it, he should take as much as he can –
Pray that God will “create” a job for him, and
that it would be a sign for him that the Message he has been listening to is TRUE. Without
hesitating, Nat joined his hands to Brother Bus
and they prayed that God would create a job
for him. Within two days, Nat called to say
that God had given him a job. Praise the Lord!
Since then, Nat has decided to leave his former
church and attend with the believers of the
Message.
In the May 2015 Believers Faith Challenge
Update, a testimony was given about Sister
Fre; an unusual person who contacted Brother
Bus. She has been growing steadily and recently witnessed to a workmate named Gashaw,
a former wizard who also invited his recently
made contact Lisan to the fellowship. Gashaw
had never been baptized, while Lisan was
immersed in “Jesus” Name for his “salvation”
while working in Djibouti. But when they
heard Brother Bus expound the Word, Lisan
exclaimed that he wanted to be identified with
the fullness of Christ in Christian baptism and
both of them were baptized in the Name of
the Lord Jesus Christ. Glory to God! Both now
attend the work in Addis Ababa.
Reports about Sister Marta, the lady that had
been a street girl for over 10 years have been
given in the past. The May update about her
was that through the support of Bible Believers, Brother Bus has now been able to help
her get a small café started in the lower part of
Addis Ababa city. She is now very happy and
we are hoping she can now be able to take care
of herself from this small business going forward as she grows spiritually. We solicit your
continued prayers for her.
According to Brother Bus, things have
changed much from the time he and Sister
Rebecca first landed in this historic land in
early 2013. From practically no one to fellowship with, there is now a regular number of
about 15 that come to Brother Bus’ house to
hear The Message of the Hour. Out of about
25 baptized over that time, 11 live in Addis
Ababa and can make it to the fellowship. Travel and outreach are frequent. Brother Bus just
arrived back from the city of Mekelle, a trip of
1200 kms (750 miles) where two more were
baptized. Before the baptisms, Sister Helen, a
new convert called the man that baptized her
previously in Addis and asked him questions:
Sis. Helen, “Is Father a Name?”
The man, “No!”
“That means Son, and Holy Ghost are not
names either?” said Sis. Helen.
The man, “Sure.”
Sis. Helen, “Why then did you baptise me in
the titles and not the Name? Is trinity biblical?”
The man, “I can answer that, but can you
stand it?”
Sis. Helen, “If it’s the truth, I will...”
The man, “Trinity is not bibilical but a doctrine of the Church...”
Sis. Helen, “In that case, I will today be baptised in the NAME,” and she hung up.
There is more good news to report, that after
waiting for approximately four months, the
Government has accepted the application for
a license to operate as a legal church ministry
in Ethiopia! Brother Bus reports that
after a few more pending processes, the
license will be ready by the end of October. This license will enable the church
to have a publicly recognized location
as well as freely conduct outreaches
throughout the land.
The work of Brother Bus and the translation work within Ethiopia is fully supported by Bible Believers. Your support
and prayers are having a huge impact
in the previously unreached country of
Ethiopia.

Good news from the translation work project. Brother Abebe from the city of Adama
has rejoined the translators to translate the Message of the Hour into the Oromic language. Brother Moges, the main Oromo translator writes:

Holy Ghost fell in Acts 2, people from many
lands first received truth through the ear-gate,
as they heard in their own tongues the mighty
works of God. Preaching was the channel the
Apostles used to reach the world with the
Gospel, as large portions of the world of that
day were illiterate.
In most African countries, believers are used
to receiving the Gospel through printed form.
To reach all of the people, audio preaching in
the local tongues is also important. This is the
reason Bible Believers has over 2000 audio
translations in 14 languages on the Message
Hub. We support this valuable effort to reach
souls and utilize those translations of the Message of the Hour in radio broadcast.
Over the past two
years, the success
of the Uganda
Radio Broadcast
has proven the
validity of this
Scriptural
method. Up

ulation is deemed illiterate in the area of the
broadcast. The weekly 90 minute broadcast of
Brother Branham’s messages has been a fruitful investment in reaching these and others,
though it is expensive and labor intensive. Basoga Biano FM in the city of Jinja is a leading
station covering a very large area of listeners.
Bible Believers has now broadcast through
them for two years.
One of the people touched was the manager of the radio station himself!—who now
attends Brother Stephen Ibale’s church, and is
now bringing his wife. Each time a program
airs many calls and letters pour in. Many
denominational and Pentecostal ministers
who have heard negative reports “about” the
Message, are now finding out from first-hand
listening that the reports are not true!
Two Pentecostal ministers opened up their
churches when they heard the sermon, There is
a Man Who Can Turn on the Light. Through
the broadcast, one Message minister
gained access to a Christian Fellowship
in a high school every Thursday and is
witnessing to the young people there.
Some have come to church. One
Pentecostal Bishop overseeing five
churches believed and was baptized,
with others from his churches following. Another Pentecostal
pastor was baptized along
with 40 of his church
members! The
effects continue
to ripple out, as
more people
find the
broadcast.
For each
broadcast,

prepares

of the
Message

to callers in.
Though the program began as an outreach
to unbelievers, it has also proven to be a huge
benefit to current believers who cannot read,
and are now hearing the voice of the Messenger with a voiceover translation in their own
language for the first time. These are newly
created translations that require much work to
produce. With recording, editing, and correction, it can take up to three weeks just to
prepare one broadcast. Much of this labor-intensive work is done by
just one or two believers,
on computers and laptops in heat and dust and
difficult conditions. Still
they persevere, and todate, 22 Messages have
been finished, and are
uploaded to the Message
Hub. Now believers and
even unbelievers who
have access to the radio
or internet can hear
these messages at any
time, in the Lugandan
language.
The believers continue to improve their
equipment and conditions in order to carry
on effectively. They have
been renting a studio
hourly for making
recordings, but it is
expensive by the hour,
and they are rushed to
make good and accurate recordings on the
budget available. Last

The Message radio broadcast in Uganda may
be just the beginning. We are happy for the
success of the Lugandan broadcast, but there is
a need to reach the illiterate Swahili speakers
in Kenya, Tanzinia, and the Amharic speakers
in Ethiopia, to name a few. Predestinated souls
are out there, just waiting for the Message to
reach their ears in their native language. Bible
Believers, through your support, has enabled
many souls to hear the words of God’s Prophet
for the first time by funding this effort. Please
pray with us as we look for ways to expand
into other languages.

The Power of the Gospel on Radio
A
lso in Uganda, Brother Gideon Byekwaso has an evangelistic broadcast in the capital city of Kampala. In this city
of about 1.5 million a stir has arisen due to the conversion of a Catholic Priest.
“My name is Joseph Muhumuza, I was a catholic priest who has
been saved by the Message. I joined Katigondo National Seminary
in 2006 with the aim of serving God for the rest of my life. I was
ordained in 2013 and posted in Uganda Martyrs Parish as the
curate where my new calling started from. I wanted to serve God
with all my heart. I was also acting as the director Radio-Maria.
My troubles started when I started teaching what was contrary to
the doctrines of the church but in line with the Bible.
It all started with my workers at the parish who were listening to Pastor Gideon on the radio
program where he would tell how the Catholic Church has gone off from the Word of God. In their
question they had the best knowledge of scriptures which was supposed to be known to only theologians. I commanded them not to listen to him again and if they did I wouldn’t pay them, but they
insisted. Then I decided to listen to him only to criticize him. At first I thought Brother Gideon was
a Pentecostal but I was confused because he would criticize them. I had never read about Reverend
William Branham, only that when he visited the Vatican he refused to meet him and that the Pope
said he was the worst enemy. I was caught by the way Pastor Gideon preached revelation and Genesis because I knew that many preachers dodge those two books in the Bible. I contacted Brother
Gideon and we started sharing about what I believed until I realized that there exists people who
follow the Word of God and are like the first Church. Then I decided to quit. I had originally joined
the priesthood looking for everlasting life which I couldn’t find in sacraments but only in the Word
of God.”
Brother Joseph has suffered much persecution and threats because of his conversion. We choose
not to publish any details, but ask that you remember him in prayer. Also please remember the
radio broadcast in Uganda, which is having powerful effects in the country.
Scripture readings each day will
lead you through the Psalms in
one year.

any believers know the dangers of
social media—the time it consumes,
the doors it opens to bad influences,
predatorial people, the unsanctified conversation and advertisements. Also deceptive is
the fact that it replaces real relationships with
“feel good” internet relationships, in which a
person can only reveal their good points, and
hide their weaknesses.
But recently, Believers in Croatia turned
Facebook on its head by harnessing it to
introduce the End Time Message to millions.
Brother Jonathan Lerga points out that in the
Second Exodus, Jesus Christ preached
to the multitudes in hell, but in
our age, hell has enlarged
itself and is all around
us. Today, in the third
Exodus, we can
preach to hell
right outside our
front door—or
from our own
personal
computer.
For several
years, the
Lerga family tried
to witness one
person at
a time, by
Facebook
contacts. In
2014, they
created a Facebook profile for
Brother Branham,
and secured paid
promotion from Facebook. The results are almost
unbelievable. Since 2014, they have received
4,169, 592 hits to the page, in the former Yugoslavian countries alone, and ads were displayed
212,415,803 times. Based on this success, they
started promoting on Google, and their ads
10
have popped up on screens and smartphones
14 million times. In google searches, their
average position is first or second, based on
hundreds of key words such as “Jesus”, “Bible”
and even “Pope” or “Catholic.”
From these many seeds, there has been a
harvest. Converts have been baptized, a new
church has been established, and the new
believers have translated new Messages into
the local languages. This was all done by local
believers at a low cost, without any sponsorship from abroad needed. This is just one of
the many ways the Message is going out
to this generation, fulfilling the
words of the Prophet,
“…the end shall be,
after this Message
has gone to all the
world.”

One of the great
strengths of this
site is it displays
the miraculous works of God TODAY. Testimonies of miracles abound on this site, giving
believers everywhere the opportunity to share
them with their unbelieving friends and family. It is no longer necessary to only point back
to the Ministry of the Prophet, the Living God
website provides proof that the same God is at
work today, in the ministry of His Bride. No
one church or movement owns this site, it is
dedicated to all believers, and provides God’s
irrefutable answer to the critics.
For seekers who would not take the time to
listen to an entire Message, the site also offers
summary overviews of some of the main Message doctrines. These are powerful tools that
can be utilized in personal witnessing efforts.
For those on Facebook, the Living God Website also has an associated Facebook page.

many hours street witnessing this year, in the

testimonies and spreading many message books.
What is the
D
Attraction?
o you remember what it was like, when God came by
your way with the Truth and Message of the Hour of
the Final Voice, to the Final Age? New believers, Jason
and Sami Keen certainly do, for they discovered the Message at
an outreach at the Lynden Fair several years ago.
A good product sells itself, and in a trade show or fair, none
of the many merchant booths have anything to compare with
an invitation to be a part of the Bride of Christ! What was it
that attracted Jason and Sami Keen to find out more? Sister
Sami testifies it was the atmosphere of the sisters, whom she
had observed at earlier times, shopping in a clothing store she
managed at a mall near Cloverdale. She had observed three
different sisters, and not known they were all connected, until
they all came to the witnessing booth at a local fair that day!
What was it that attracted Clarence and Audrey Mostert?
They are in their 80s, religious, highly educated, and settled.
They wandered past the believers in the booth. Clarence
testifies that after he walked away, the atmosphere of the young
people lingered in his mind. Clarence is a studier, and has
spent many years collecting and reading scholarly books on
theology. But it wasn’t the books, the tracts, the conversation—
there was just something about those young people! He had to
find out more.

those whose lives have been changed
prove that it isn’t what you say, it’s

responds to the light, there are surely
multitudes who noticed it.

He has planned to be the instrument
to find that LAST ONE in your area.
This summer, booths similar to
those at the Lynden Fair were set up
in cities in Ohio, with three churches cooperating. Other churches are
catching the vision as well. We possess the Greatest Product and Service
From One Seed…
W
ho has not walked through a mature forest without being
impressed by the grandeur of great trees? It is amazing to
think that each of these was once a tiny seed. A seed packs
tremendous power and potentials into a very small place, and so does
the Word of God. When it hits good soil, miracles happen.
When 17 year-old Roshan Masih found several message tracts in the
trash can of his pentecostal pastor’s office in 1989, no one would have
predicted that the harvest would be a gifted pastor, and a whole collection of new churches—so far.
As the life of a believer progresses, all our relationships
change. Worldly relationships drop off, and over time we can
become insular, spending most of our time with other believers. We become common to each other. We can forget that the
atmosphere of a believer is striking, in contrast to the world.
But those outside can see it almost like a neon sign.
Brother Roshan was miraculously transformed by what some sowed in
faith, and others discarded as trash. Neither knew what would become
of their actions. But the scripture declares that every good seed sown
has the potential to produce one hundred fold (Matt. 13:8). Brother
Roshan took two tracts out of the trash and slipped them into his bag,
when the pastor left the room for a moment.
Jesus Christ said, “Let your light so shine before men…”
(Matt. 5:16). That light must be put up on a stand—and just
maybe someone has to “build” that stand! It takes effort to get
out and put the light on display. But that alone is often enough
to attract those God is calling, even without much verbal
witnessing. When God opens the door to a heart, verbal wit-
Back in 1975, Brother Ken Andes in the United States was led to make
some shorter tracts out of the Church Ages book. Bible Believers continued to sow in faith by funding a translation and printing operation in
Chennai, India, and these tracts were printed in Punjabi. They were sent
to many but only God knew what the result would be. The seed and the
soil came together, by the miracle of God’s amazing guidance.
Witnessing Booth at the
Lynden Fair, WA
The denominational pastor eventually took the books from Brother
Roshan and never returned them, but not before Brother Roshan had
written down the address of the publisher. He was able to order more
books, and though he was rejected by his pastor, his church, and even
his family, Brother Roshan persisted, and the Lord blessed.
Today, over one dozen churches within the Punjab, India have been
started directly through Brother Roshan’s ministry. Thousands of souls
have been impacted and countless receiving Jesus Christ. All because
God led one 17 year-old boy to take tracts that others had discarded.
Never underestimate the power of a tiny seed.

MONGO LIA
A Time for Planting
M
ongolia, is a dry land both naturally and spiritually.
With no Message Churches, there is no foundation
on which to base outreach work. It must be done
from outside the country. It is only since the 1990’s that Mongolia has enjoyed freedom of Religion, and through this open
door a few Brothers have stepped with the Message of the Hour.
About half of the 3 million Mongolians are considered Buddhist, but thanks be to God, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, through
the Message of the Hour, is being introduced by the gallant
efforts of Brother Danny Fehr and his son Andrew of Manitoba,
Canada, Brother Lukram (Luke), a pastor in Nepal, and a small
handful of noble Believers who are faithfully assisting these
heroes of the Faith.
Recently we received updates on some of the progress in Mongolia. Brother Luke held meetings in Zuunkharaa, a small city
about 125 miles north of Ulaanbaatar. Brother Luke preached
Sunday morning at an independent church on the Truth of
Baptism. That evening the believers assembled around the dining table at the pastor’s residence. Brother Luke spoke on this
occasion about the life and ministry of William Branham for
many hours. At breakfast the next morning, Pastor Ganhuyag
said, “I prayed and asked the Lord, ‘what shall I do?’. Now I am
ready to be baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ: It is
the Truth, Praise the Lord!” Another Soul for Christ!
Services were also conducted in nearby Jargalant as well as
Ulaanbaatar, and many heard the Word with gladness. Of
course, a servant’s work is never without trials and tribulations.
On the way to the meetings in Zuunkharaa, a wheel blasted out
and flipped the car upside down. By the grace of God, none of
the Believers, including two six month old babies, were hurt
badly. A host of angels protects those who believe. The meetings
were a great success: 28 souls in all were baptized during the
meetings in Jargalant, Zunharaa, and Ulanbatar.
One book has been translated, God’s Provided Way for This
Day and printed in Mongolian. This is the only message
the Brothers have to give out, along with Bibles, to form the
foundation for the introduction of the Message. Opposition to
the Message is prevalent, but the Brothers continue to sow and
water that God may give an increase. The tract/booklet The
Mystery of God has also been redone and is ready for printing in
Mongolian. These saints have asked that we be in prayer for the
Believers in Mongolia. While this work is funded largely by the
Saints in Manitoba, we are happy to share the burden with our
readers.
A Testimony:
Sometimes miracles happen and we fail to see them because of
our preconceived ideas of what a miracle is.
The brothers flew 1000 miles from the capital city of Ulaanbaatar to a place called Khovd and then drove 155 miles to
Bayan Olgiee - quite a dry region of Mongolia. Because this
was home to Mongolian Kazakhs who are about 95% Muslims,
they were advised not to publicly speak or hand out books as
a Christian girl had been severely beaten at school just a few
weeks prior for her beliefs.
Brother Fehr prayed and asked the Lord to confirm His Word
in might and power as the people needed to see the God of the
Bible come on the scene and do what He promised. (Of course
he was thinking the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear…)
“The morning after we arrived in Bayan Olgiie I looked out the
window and the area was clouded in and lightly raining. I was a
little disappointed at this wet, dreary day and thought it might
hinder our plans for the day. That day our Buddhist friend and
driver (a former Mongolian Colonel) took us to see a Muslim
man who trains eagles and hunts with them.

in Choluteca, Honduras, where
Brother Ernesto Mendoza and his
team are printing thousands of
books for all of Central America.
Spanish Translations
he three great languages of
the world today are Mandarin, English, and Spanish. More people claim Spanish as
their native language than even
English. On the Message Hub,
Spanish is in greatest demand by
far. In fact, downloads in Spanish
are often as numerous or more
so than downloads of all other
languages combined. Clearly there
is a spiritual pull for the Word
from the Spanish speaking world.
Why so?
When the Enemy comes in like
a flood, the Spirit of God lifts up
a standard against him. (Is. 59:19)
The Catholic Church has chosen a
Pope from the Americas because
this is their growth area now, with
religion on the decline in Europe.
The Pope’s visit to the U.S. Capitol
and the first address to Congress
by a Pope is a further indication
of their intentions. For several
years Mexico has been the single
largest contributor to the Catholic Church. Clearly the Whore is
focusing on South America. The
timing of this translation project
is crucial in light of these facts.
Each one of the newly translated
Messages is like a beam of light,
scattering darkness, and freeing
precious bound souls.
At this time, only a little more
than half of the Message is
available in Spanish, a situation
that has gone on too long. The
translation team, assembled in
2014 by Brother Paul LaFontaine
and Brother Doug Baker, desire
to finish the work within two
years. In 2014, the project hired
10 paid translators, and now the
team has doubled in size to 20.
It costs about $200 to translate
one message, and about half the
needed budget has been donated
by believers. So far the team has
uploaded 101 Messages, with 60
more close to complete. This will
complete all Messages from 196065. May the Lord reward everyone
who gave to make this possible.
While this project was not
initiated by Bible Believers, we are
working closely with these Brothers and are highly supportive of it.
More qualified translators are
needed, and finding them has
been an ongoing challenge. If
you might be able to help in this
area, please contact missions@
literallifechurch.org. All Spanish
messages will be made available
free of charge and without restrictions on the Message Hub.
Whether you can give, translate,
or simply pray, you are needed for
this project! May the light of God’s
Truth overwhelm the darkness,
as the Message of God’s last day
prophet invades the strongholds
of Catholic darkness, overturning
generations of lies.
Mexican Young People Making the Message go “Mobile”
B
elievers who have used the Message Hub website know that
it makes the Message available online on demand, in many
languages, both in text and audio. However, the free Message
Hub Mobile App does much of this and more on any android device.
Right now, in several languages, volunteers are working to reformat
the online messages for the Mobile App.
away in a link next to the scripture. Click it, and you instantly have
prophetic light on that scripture. Once the app is installed, no continuous internet connection is required, the Bible and Message exists on
your device. The Mexican young people caught the vision for this and
went to work. When enough translations are reformatted, the Spanish
language will be added to the Message Hub Mobile.
Recently Brother Billy Aho, a 17 year-old young person from Cloverdale Bibleway, spent a summer in Mexico City, and while there
many young people were trained to help reformat the messages. In two
months, 60 messages were reformatted by volunteers. While translating takes a high level of skill, reformatting can be done by anyone with
enough familiarity with a language to know where a paragraph starts
and stops.
This same reformatting work
is needed in many languages.
The Message on smartphones
is the next wave. Computers
are fragile and difficult to
maintain in many countries.
But smartphones are cheap
and durable. If you would like
to help with the reformatting
work in your language, please
contact Bible Believers.
In addition to bringing the whole Message to your smart phone, the
Message Hub Mobile App also provides powerful new features, such
as linking the Bible and Message by scripture. When you are reading
the Bible in the app, comments by Brother Branham are just a click
(...Mongolia continued)
The Muslim man thanked our Colonel friend for bringing these
“good men” to his village because we had brought “blessings” to his
town in the form of rain. You see a Mongolian proverb is that rain
(blessings) follows when ‘good men’ come to you. Two days later we
travelled 155 miles to another region and it rained again.”
By these events the Buddhist Mongolian Colonel was convinced that
these visitors had brought good news of eternal life to Mongolians.
Brother Fehr relates that he felt bad for not recognizing that God was
answering prayer, confirming His word - that he was in the middle of a
blessing and answered prayer and did not even recognize it.
We trust the seed planted there will bring forth much fruit.

rother Richard Sieunath of Trinidad has planted many print stations throughout South
America. Many other names could be mentioned from other parts of the world; just like
Brother John Armstrong from Arkansas. Brother John attends the same church as Brother
Frank McComas where Brother Jason Jackson is the pastor. He works at an oil rig. He has always
worked in the Gulf of Mexico, but he had to move to Angola because of his job and. Though
initially he didn’t want to do it, he relented and went. After meeting believers in the country,
Brother Armstrong became burdened with the great need for message books amongst the Believers.
Being familiar with the Message Hub, Brother Armstrong contacted Bible Believers and arranged
to establish a Print Station in the City of Luanda. Soon hundreds of books were being printed and
pastors from around the country were lining up to have the opportunity to receive books from this
newly commissioned work. There are over 200 Portuguese translations on the Message
Hub in the Brazilian dialect.
While it appears that one Print Station will not be enough,
as the Believers in China found out, with just a couple
of printers, tens of thousands of books can
be distributed. Please remember the Saints
in these countries in your prayerful
support as they sometimes
have difficulty in keeping
the Print Stations
running due to the
difficulty of obtaining
supplies.

his past year has been a rollup-the-sleeves kind of year. A
couple of major projects that
will affect Believers world-wide have
been completed.
Firstly, after countless hours of
work by Believers both in Canada and China, the Chinese King
James Version Bible is rolling off the
printing press. As you will read on
pages 2 and 3, this is a tremendous
achievement, and will have a great
positive impact on the lives of Chinese Believers, not only in China
but around the world.
Secondly, I am personally happy to have finally finished the third,
and (Lord willing) final in the series of the Family Altar devotional
books. The first two volumes have been well received in both printed
and electronic versions and I believe that volume three, based on the
Psalms, will be a fitting capstone to the devotional series. You may

man according as his work shall be. (Revelation 22:12)
Combined with these efforts, the Missions work continues tirelessly in Ethiopia, Uganda, China and other areas of the world. Many
have laboured to make the Message available on the Message Hub
Mobile Application. This will make the Message infinitely more
accessible to the Bride of Jesus Christ. Much labour is expended, but
the fruit is not measured in books and computer applications. The
real fruit is the souls that are redeemed and built up in the stature of
Jesus Christ.
While I cannot comment on every area which we are involved in or
works that we are familiar with, I hope that you will prayerfully read
the accounts we were able to include in this Faith Challenge Report
and in that way continue to be a part of what the Lord is doing
around the world.
