Hell Has Arrived in Syria
The Story of a Pastor
When we arrived in Jordan, we met a certain pastor. He felt in his heart a calling from God to minister to the Syrian refugees. He told us that in the 1980s and 1990s there was a devastating war between Iraq and Iran. During this war, over 1 million refugees passed the border from Iraq to Jordan, and the congregations in Jordan had the opportunity to minister, to help and to bring the gospel to the refugees who came from Iraq. The pastor told us that at that period, hundreds of refugees came to the Lord Yeshua. After the war ended and they returned to Iraq, many of them founded congregations, which brought good fruit to the kingdom—leading many Iraqi families to Yeshua.
This testimony gives hope to the believers in Jordan who work with the Syrian refugees. We want to believe that through this joined ministry between Israeli Messianic Jews and the Israeli Arab Christians among the Syrian refugees, many of them will give their lives to Yeshua, return after the war to their home country, and spread the gospel among their friends and families. Let us continue to pray that this ministry will bring good fruit unto the Lord.
