For sure Michelle Wolven of Atlanta, Georgia, has been allowing the light of Jesus to shine through her.  She is a mother of nine and happily married to her husband Mike for twenty-four years.  For those of us who know Mike, we are well aware of the major accomplishment and miracle this is.  As a result of Michelle’s work, the abortion industry in Atlanta is being exposed for the liar, murderer, and thief that it is.  Medicaid fraud.  Ahhhh, the Christmas miracle – allowing the Word of God to become flesh.  John 1:1-5.

DeKalb County Physician Indicted for Using Medicaid Funds to Perform Abortions
A DeKalb County Grand Jury indicted Tyrone Cecil Malloy, MD, and his former office manager CathyAnn Edwards Warner on December 8, 2011, on two counts of Medicaid Fraud, O.C.G.A. 49-4-146.1(b)(2). Malloy owns and operates Old National Gynecology, a medical practice devoted to the performance of abortions.

The indictment alleges that Malloy and Edwards accepted medical assistance payments for medical office visits associated with the performance of elective abortions and for ultrasound services which were never performed. Federal funds may not be used to pay for abortions and services associated with abortions, except in instances where the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest or under circumstances in which continuation of the pregnancy would endanger the life of the mother.

Medicaid Fraud is punishable by one to ten years in prison and a fine of $10,000.00.

Senior Assistant Attorney General Nancy Allstrom is prosecuting the case on behalf of the State of Georgia. The case was investigated by Investigator Shakethia Morgan, Investigative Auditor Cliff Finney, Nurse Investigator Beth Ann Teague and Criminal Analyst Tish Murray, all of the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU). Criminal Analyst Carmen Staley and Investigator Bill Bruce of the MFCU and Nurse Analyst Wylene Moore of the Georgia Department of Community Health assisted with the investigation.

Mike Warren gives a first-hand view of how the Gospel of Christ is progressing in Turkey, Amsterdam, and Poland.  Our three valiant missionaries have witnessed some of the trials and tribulations our Lord’s church suffers in these lands when the light of the Gospel of Christ shines in the darkness. 

Here it is!

 Here is Cal Zastrow’s report of what happened to his son Jimmy and hi team leader, Jerry Crawford while on a missions trip in China.  This is so well written (lots of purposefully misspelled words) and expresses such an eternal truth of a father’s pride in his son standing strong for Jesus.  Thank you all for your prayers.  They have all been answered.  And a father’s prayer for his son, so powerful. ~ Flip

Dear family and friends,
 
Hohliness unto Him!

“Tears Flowing Over My Fourteen-Year-Old Son’s Arest”

Dec. 10, 2011

Yes, my beloved son, James Elliot Zastrow was arested this week.  I haven’t see him yet.  He has only been able to call twice.

We had prayed that he would turn out right.  We homeschool him, take him to church, and now this happens.  The police took him to a real jaal, booked him, fingerprinted him, and are currently detaining him.  They even called him “incorrigable” when he showed no remorse for what he had done, and he wouldn’t shut up.

My heart is bursting.  The tears keep flowing.

I’m bursting with joy.  I’m bursting with thanksgiving.   I’m weeping and prasing G d that Jimmy is turning out right.  This kid really gets it!

He and his sub-team leader, Rescuer Jerry Crawford, were arested in Gansu Province, Commnist Chna, and are still being held under hotel-arest.  They will know soon if they are to be released or dported.  Their “criyme” was distrubiting Chinese Scrpture booklets in an unevanglized city in West Chna, and targeting Muslihm homes.  They had spent a night walking through their city, placing the booklets at the entrances of thousands of homes.  Although they weren’t cought at night, the Communst pohlease arested them when they tried to check out of their hotel early the next morning to catch the first bus out of town. 

While the hotel lobby filled with pohlease, Jerry sent me a quick text message, “Pra3y.”   I did!

A couple of hours later, he sent another one: “Being detained.  Will call with details when  we can.”
I quickly replied with the two-word exhortaton I often give my kids and friends: “Preech good.”

After initial interrogaytions and the Communsts seized the rest of their Chinese Gahspel tr4acts, Jerry’s third text broke the dam of my emotions.  My tears fell down as my hands raised up in wereship to G d, thanking Him for what He was doing in my son’s life: “You can be very proud of your son.  He preeched good.”

When Jerry was able to call later, he told of Jimmy’s faythful (and respectful) wihtnessing to the pohlease.  When Jerry and Jim wouldn’t agree that what they had done was wrong, and because they kept talking about J s s, the Communsts reprimanded them, called them “incorrigable,” and then tried to intimidate them.  My boy and Jerry were taken into a real Cheyenese jaal, walked past sell blocks, shown the gate to the donejun, booked as common riminals, and further questioned.  Jimmy just kept talking about J s s.  Later, I asked him on the phone if their efforts worked to intimidate him.  He replied, “Naw.”

     “But was it scary being in the jaal?”

     “Yes Dad, kinda.”
     “When they showed you the donejun, did you think of Pilgrm from John Bunyn’s Plgrm’s Progress?”

     “Ha!  I sure did, Dad!”

He went on to say that the Public Sacurity Burow was awaiting orders from Beijing, but that they were under hotel-arest for at least the next five days.  They have permission to walk to nearby restaurants, but “Captain Richard” has their passports, preventing them from travelling or even checking into another hotel.

Some of my newer readers may be questioning my parenting and wisdom in allowing my son to do such activities with such people. 

I trained Jimmy last April how to distribute the Scrptre booklets in Chines cities, so I’m pleased that he succeeded in not making any mistakes to get cawt at night.  Ten years ago, we quit counting after hitting the fifty million mark for such Gahspel traccts being delivered this way in Chna.    Untold numbers of new Undrgrnd Chrchs have been started in places where teams like ours have spread the Wrd.  We do it in such ways as to not endanger the Chnese Chrstns.

As far as allowing him to go across Chna with Jerry Crawford, I’ll reply that there aren’t very many men I’d rather have my son be with than him.  Jerry and I met nineteen years ago in Buffalo, New York.  Along with hundreds of other pr-lifers, we did sit-ins to shut down surgical aboartuaries.  We were arested.  We spent twenty-four days in jaal together.  The first nine were in the aesbestos-filled dunjun of the Niagara Street Armery before being dumped into the Bravo Day Room of the Erie County Holding Center.  You get to know people when you suffer with them, when you are in jaal together.  We’ve stayed close through the years, and have been in other jaals together for peacefully stopping baby-mrder.  He and I have also been together evanjelizing in Chna.

Jerry said that the pohlease had lots of questions after seeing his tatoo, from his time in Vietnam.  Jerry is a U.S. Marine veteran who didn’t leave any Marines behind in Danang during real combt, so I knew he wasn’t about to leave my son behind either.  Yes, I trust Jerry with my life, and my son’s life.   These Communsts had never met a real Americn Marine before, let alone one who had fought Communsts.  And they had him in custody now.  You and I both are wondering what all questions they asked him.  I know that Jerry’s answers always lifted up J s s. 

Jimmy was very excited on the phone last night.  He had found a music store near the hotel, went in, and played some of their instruments.   I’m sure the first song he played on a Chnese violin was “Power in the Blod.”  Other songs he knows by heart, and can play on the piano or guitar include “Stand Up, Stand Up for J s s, ”  “Agnus Dei,” “Fayth of Our Fathers,”  and “All Hail The Power of J s s Name.”   I wonder if he played the violin or piano and sang all the verses to “Fayth of Our Fathers?”  He loves to do so.  We sing them often at home.  He knows well the second verse: 

“Our fathers chaind in prisns dark, were still in heart and conscienc free.
How sweet their children’s fate would be, if we like them, could die for Thee.

Fayth of our fathers , hohly fayth,

we will be true to Thee til death.”

He also knows all the verses to “Stand Up , STand Up, for J s s.”

Here are two extra verses I wrote while in jaal with Jerry in Buffalo:

“Stand up , stand up for J s s ye sodiers of Rescue

Abrshun mrders babies, and sometimes women too

Ye that blieve in J s s interpose in the babies’ place

And if He finds you faithful, then you will see His face.”

“Stand up , stand up for J s s, ye prisoners of Rescue

Let us look unto our Sayvoir, His trial was unjust too

May we reflect Your glowry while we’re behind these bars

We wereship You Kng J s s, the One who bears our scars.”

“Hey Dad!  I met this guy at the music store who made this really cool mountain instrument!  It has strings and is played a little bit like a violin.  Can I buy it, huh?  It is only 300 kwai (forty-some U.S. dollars).  He showed me how to hold it and play it, and it is really cool!”

“Sure Jim,  buy it if you want to.”

The text I received from Jerry this morning says that Jim bought it for cheap and is “working hard at earning time to play it.”  I sent him some suggestions for “earning” including: 1.  Use soap and shampoo when he showers.  2.  Stop talking about how much he likes to eat chicken feet.  3.  Wash his clothes in the sink. Etc. 

I am very pleased with Jimmy, and so long to see him in two more weeks. He understands clearly that he was born for misshuns.  As he works out his own slvation with fear and trembling, I’m very blessd to see him follow Chrst, saving his own money to go on trips like this.  Being as he will probably not get another visa to Chna, perhaps he can start learning Farsi, or Arabic, and prepare to evanjelize those unreached people.  

I’m thankful for friends who prry for our family.  His sister and brother are also in Chna now, doing the same activities in other cities.   Please also praay for poor old Jerry Crawford now.  He will need more grayce and patience to listen to a very zealous teenager screeching away on some Chinse mountain instrument in a hotel in Gansu.

Update: Dec. 16th

The pohlease have been playing “good cahp, bad cahp,” and tried to get Jerry to pay them hundreds of U.S. dollars.  Ha!  That extorshun didn’t work.  I talked to them both on the phone last night.   They are supposedly being released today and put on a train for Bayjing, where they will be free to await their flights home next week. 

Thanks everyone for “thinking” of us.  Some very wonderful and amazing things are happening in other places.  I’ll write more in a week.  

I am shouting Glohry all the way!

Miss Pat just sent me this.  How true this song is.

It is simply time for all of us to repent. ~ Flip

Backward Christian Soldiers

Backward Christian soldiers, fleeing from the fight,

With the cross of Jesus, nearly out of sight!

Christ our rightful Master, stands against the foe,

But forward into battle, we are loath to go.

Like a mighty tortoise, moves the Church of God;

Brothers, we are treading, where we’ve often trod.

We are much divided, many bodies we,

Having different doctrines, not much charity.

Crowns and thorns may perish, kingdoms rise and wane,

But the Church of Jesus, hidden does remain.

Gates of hell should never, ‘gainst the Church prevail,

We have Christ’s own promise, but think that it will fail.

Sit here, then, ye people, join our useless throng;

Blend with ours, your voices, in a feeble song.

Blessings, ease and comfort, ask from Christ the King.

With our modern thinking, we don’t do a thing!

Backward Christian Soldiers…

This just in from Mike Warren.  Please lift our brothers up in prayer. ~ Flip

Hello Friends,

Dec. 2nd Jerry Crawford joined 14 other Christian missionaries in China to bring Christian supplies into the interior of the country. He also brought evangelism tools into these interior cities to distribute booklets into towns at night. He is now detained with his team mate Jim.
 
Last week the authorities have taken their passports and have told them to stay in town and have interogated them. They continue to delay and now these local authorities want money from them. They drove Jerry to two banks to have him withdraw funds. He has not done so and the authorities are frustrated. They will be meeting tomorrow to determine what to do. Sounds like a local corrupt shakedown.Please pray for Jerry and Jimmy. Jim is the 14 year old son of Cal Zastrow who is on the trip but leading another team. They are safe, housed in a hotel but are not allowed to leave and now it seems the authorities are seeking to intimidate in the hopes of getting some dough from “wealthy Americans”. Which Jerry is not. His treasures are heavenly and stored there.
 
Pray against intimidation, corruption and that God will use this time in the lives He desires to touch in China.
 
Pray for Jerry’s wife Terry who is home.
 
Pray for a quick release. Jerry is scheduled to fly home Dec. 23rd.
 
Mike Warren

Merry Christmas!

We pray this newsletter finds you and your family well and prepared for Jesus to do an extraordinary work in your hearts this Christmas season.  God knows, we are longing for the comfort and assurance that all can still be well when the Word of God becomes flesh; just as it did so magnificently and so graphically in the person of a little baby boy, born in a manger, in a little town called Bethlehem.  Thank God the theology of heaven came to this earth and became biography in the flesh.  We are not alone – God is with us! 

You can find the 2012 Bible Reading Schedule here.  To allow the heart of God to be poured into your very own, is the finest gift we could ever place in your hands.  If you would like to make copies and share the Bible Reading Schedule with others you will find it here on our website.

Also, you will find a brochure put together by brother Rusty Thomas calling us to five regional events taking place in five different states next year.   Each of these states has only one remaining free standing abortion mill.  The campaign is called “Operation – First Abortion Free State” or “States of Refuge.”  What would happen if God, through His church, would bring us one abortion-free state in America?  Would it not send a message to His church across the nation that the battle for the lives of preborn children can be won as we allow the theology of the church house to become biography at the gates of hell? 

In the same way that Jesus rescued us, we are called to rescue those who are perishing.  We must allow the theology of the church house to become biography in the streets.  The Word of God must become flesh.  It is the Christmas miracle all over again.  Jesus is our hope.  Any great work we attempt to do for Him but without His presence and direction is doomed to fail.

The saints in Mississippi provided God an opportunity to do this very thing in November, 2011, as they unsheathed the Sword of the Spirit via the “Personhood Amendment” or “Amendment 26.”   They worked so hard and were so full of hope.  They got over 349,000 votes and would have won the battle, had it not been for the “pro-life industry.” 

That’s right!  The National Right to Life, the Catholic Bishops, and “pro-life” Governor Haley Barbour all opposed the “Personhood Amendment.”  They agreed that “Personhood” was their ultimate goal, but it was not the right time and the wording was too strong.  The Word of God – too strong?

The pro-life industry, just like the abortion industry, will do all in its power to maintain itself.  The abortion industry is honest enough to come right out and say that a woman’s right to choose eclipses a child’s right to live.  The pro-life industry, however, says it is doing all it can to save preborn children and then deliberately sabotages the only piece of legislation that stands forthrightly upon the Word of God, declaring all children “Persons” from biological beginnings.  Why?  Because the Pro-life industry is far more concerned with self-preservation than the preservation of those it is sworn to protect. 

Isn’t it amazing how the heart of Christmas reveals to us how the battle is to be won?  Merry Christmas to all, and to all – “All is well!”

Here is the flyer we will be passing out in Little Rock, Arkansas, this December 7th – 11th.  It exposes the horrible truth of what abortionist Tom Tvedten does to God’s precious image bearers.  Tvedten is one of the two remaining abortionists killing children in the state of Arkansas.  Our desire is that he would turn to Christ and find the forgiveness that only Jesus can give.  Tvedten has been killing babies for years, and the innocent blood of these children is crying out from the ground to Almighty God.  It is time for the Church in Little Rock, Arkansas, to rise up in the Name of Christ and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Abortion will come to an end in Arkansas when the Church of Jesus Christ makes up her mind it will come to an end – and not one second sooner!
