Links to other recommended websites
The following links are not associated with JHS Publishing, nor does JHS Publishing necessarily endorse all views or associations of these organizations, but I feel that, at a minimum, they are good, solid Bible-preaching ministries that every Bible-believing Christian can pray for and support. The order of these ministries below is not important.
"Back to Jerusalem" is a website operated by Christians either in or living outside of China, which spotlights the missionary work and activities of the non-"government-approved" churches in China. I have found it to be both a great blessing to my own heart and an encouragement to pray for them and do what I can on their behalf. I hope you will join me in doing this. It is true that many Chinese churches on the mainland could not be called "Fundamental" in the terms that American Christians would understand; however, we have to remember that the communist Chinese government has oppressed them for decades, and forbidden them from establishing Bible Colleges or Seminaries that are free from government control. This means that some of the Christians in these Chinese churches are very weak in their doctrines, and are susceptible to heresies that the devil tries to sow in their midst. In spite of these shortcomings, though, these Chinese Christians have shown wonderful Christian character in enduring persecutions and suffering for the cause of Jesus Christ, something that most American Christians know very little about. The doctrine that they do know is usually very strong, and their faith is very strong. They need our prayer and support in any way that we can to train their preachers in the Fundamentals of the Faith, so that they can then go back to their people and teach them, and pass it on. I hope that the Kingdom Study Bible website will aid them in understanding the Bible better. In the future, I plan on providing the Kingdom Study Bible in as many languages as I can, including Chinese; but that is at least several years away.
Chick Publications is my favorite source for soul-winning Gospel tracts and books. I started reading Brother Jack Chick's material in the early '80s (probably even before I accepted Christ as my Savior), and I found his material to be extremely helpful in feeding my soul with Biblical truths that helped me to understand what being a Christian was all about. Also, his comic books and tracts are extremely hard-hitting, but loving in presenting the truth of God with regards to false cults such as Islam, Mormonism, Catholicism, witchcraft, Satanism, and more. You just can't find this kind of material anywhere else. God has really blessed his ability with drawing cartoons, so that the tracts just pull you into the story and keep you interested until the very end. I've used Chick's tracts and books for over 27 years, and I can testify that God has used them in a powerful way to win many souls through simply handing them out and asking, "Can I leave you with something?" Almost everyone thanks me for receiving them, and most people will read them and never be the same again. Even if they don't receive Christ right away or ever, they won't forget the simple truths of the Bible presented in them, and God can then use it as a seed which can bring forth much fruit later on. I encourage you to purchase Chick tracts and use them as much as you can. The other kinds of printed tracts just can't compare.
Tabernacle Bapist Bible College and Seminary, Virginia Beach, Va
Tabernacle Baptist Bible College and Seminary is my Alma Mater, from which I graduated in 1989 and 1991, respectively. The following is the text from their website:
"TBBCS began in 1970 as the Bible Institute ministry of Tabernacle Baptist Church under its founding pastor, Rod Bell, Sr. Though the church had only begun in 1967, Dr. Bell and the people of the Tabernacle saw a need in the Atlantic coastal region for a local-church-based Bible school, a school that stood for the fundamentals of the faith of Jesus Christ and trained fervent preachers of the Word of God."
"In 1986, under the leadership of Dean Edward G. Caughill, the church expanded its Bible institute ministry to a full four-year college, Tabernacle Baptist Bible College. Dr. Caughill had come to the ministry in 1985 bringing broad experience and expertise in the Bible college movement and proved to be just the man to orchestrate this expansion."
"Soon after that expansion, the church and college leadership responded to the need to offer an advanced level of Bible study, and in 1987, Tabernacle Baptist Church added to its Bible college ministry by establishing Tabernacle Baptist Theological Seminary. Under Dr. Caughill's continued leadership, the seminary provided advanced degrees for students desiring a more complete study of the Scriptures. With this new aspect of the ministry in place, the College and Seminary made intensive Bible study available to a wide range of individuals looking to serve more effectively in their local church ministries and desiring to develop a greater knowledge and understanding of God and His design for life."
"Since its inception, God has used TBBCS to prepare hundreds of men and women for faithful service of Christ as pastors, teachers, missionaries, evangelists, educators, and even as lay members in churches. With God's blessing upon the College and Seminary, Tabernacle Baptist Church has seen its influence for Jesus Christ extend around the world, having provided training not only for American missionaries, but also for believers from other nations who came to Tabernacle to prepare for the service of God in their own countries. The present administration of the College and Seminary is committed to a continuing expansion of this influence to the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ in all the world."
Over time, I hope to add more Christian websites to this list.
Please join me in praying for these very worthy ministries!
