2 Chronicles 30: 1-13<\/h4>

1\u00a0Hezekiah sent to all Israel and Judah, and wrote letters also to Ephraim and Manasseh, that they should come to the house of the Lord\u00a0at Jerusalem to keep the Passover to the\u00a0Lord, the God of Israel.\u00a02\u00a0For the king and his princes and all the assembly in Jerusalem had taken counsel to keep the Passover\u00a0in the second month\u2014\u00a03\u00a0for they could not keep it\u00a0at that time\u00a0because the priests had not consecrated themselves in sufficient number, nor had the people assembled in Jerusalem\u2014\u00a04\u00a0and the plan seemed right to the king and all the assembly.\u00a05\u00a0So they decreed to make a proclamation throughout all Israel,\u00a0from Beersheba to Dan, that the people should come and keep the Passover to the\u00a0Lord, the God of Israel, at Jerusalem, for they had not kept it as often as prescribed.\u00a06\u00a0So couriers went throughout all Israel and Judah with letters from the king and his princes, as the king had commanded, saying, \u201cO people of Israel,\u00a0return to the\u00a0Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, that he may turn again to the remnant of you who have escaped from the hand of\u00a0the kings of Assyria.\u00a07\u00a0Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were faithless to the\u00a0Lord\u00a0God of their fathers, so that he made them a desolation, as you see.\u00a08\u00a0Do not now be stiff-necked as your fathers were, but yield yourselves to the\u00a0Lord\u00a0and come to his sanctuary, which he has consecrated forever, and serve the\u00a0Lord\u00a0your God,\u00a0that his fierce anger may turn away from you.\u00a09\u00a0For\u00a0if you return to the\u00a0Lord, your brothers and your children\u00a0will find compassion with their captors and return to this land. For\u00a0the\u00a0Lord\u00a0your God is gracious and merciful and will not turn away his face from you,\u00a0if you return to him.\u201d<\/p>

10\u00a0So the couriers went from city to city through the country of\u00a0Ephraim and Manasseh, and as far as Zebulun, but\u00a0they laughed them to scorn and mocked them.\u00a011\u00a0However,\u00a0some men of Asher, of Manasseh, and of Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.\u00a012\u00a0The hand of God was also on Judah to give them one heart to do what the king and the princes commanded\u00a0by the word of the\u00a0Lord.<\/p>

13\u00a0And many people came together in Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread\u00a0in the second month, a very great assembly.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hezekiah sent out messengers to Israel and Judah inviting people to the Passover celebration. This summer Jesus sent more than two hundred messengers to the ports of the western Mediterranean Sea inviting North Africans to His Passover. Invitations came through New Testaments, Magdalena and JESUS Film DVDs, Josh McDowell\u2019s More than a Carpenter, and children\u2019s Wonder Books along with words spoken by the participants who were trained to witness with a Muslim.
\u00a0
The messengers went forth with authority. Often local officials stood opposed, but Jesus, \u201cwho opens doors that no one can shut\u201d and who sent the messengers with \u201call authority in heaven and earth,\u201d enabled many to continue to receive the “invitations” to the Passover Lamb.
\u00a0
Many North Africans who were offered the “invitations”, \u201claughed them to scorn\u201d; often hindering other North Africans from accepting. Yet, as seen by the numbers distributed and the stories of the next column, \u201csome men\u2026 humbled themselves\u201d accepting packets. A good number of these indicated receiving Christ into their lives.\u00a0
\u00a0
The stories that follow include the on-going witness of people impacted by previous years\u2019 outreach. No one knows the date of Jesus\u2019 return. It looks to be soon. Soon or not, when we meet in heaven there will be \u201ca very great assembly\u201d among which will be countless North Africans.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Avant le Verrouillage<\/h4>


Un homme a demand\u00e9 \u00e0 un distributeur ce qu'elle proposait. Il s'est int\u00e9ress\u00e9, a rencontr\u00e9\ndes chr\u00e9tiens locaux et nord-africains et a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 fr\u00e9quenter l'\u00e9glise. Aujourd'hui, il vit dans son pays d'origine, toujours un t\u00e9moin clair du Seigneur.<\/p>

Une femme avec plusieurs enfants a refus\u00e9 les documents jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce qu\u2019elle voie le livre des\nmerveilles des enfants. Puis elle a accept\u00e9 le paquet entier.<\/p>

Un jeune homme qui a entendu l'\u00c9vangile assis sur un trottoir a pri\u00e9 de mani\u00e8re convaincante une pri\u00e8re pour recevoir le Christ en espagnol et en arabe.<\/p>

Dans un terminal portuaire, une femme sourit et hocha la t\u00eate en \u00e9coutant l'\u00c9vangile. Elle a\nr\u00e9p\u00e9t\u00e9 la pri\u00e8re \u00e0 haute voix, indiquant avoir re\u00e7u J\u00e9sus-Christ.<\/p>

Un chauffeur avec une cargaison de voyageurs a accept\u00e9 avec empressement un DVD de\nJESUS \u200b\u200ben entendant pourquoi Dieu a envoy\u00e9 J\u00e9sus. Trois passagers ont refus\u00e9, mais en\nentendant comment J\u00e9sus a pardonn\u00e9 au distributeur, l'un d'eux a tendu la main pour\nprendre un paquet.<\/p>

Deux femmes ont accept\u00e9 le cadeau apr\u00e8s avoir entendu une explication de ce que c'\u00e9tait.\nAlors que le distributeur s'\u00e9loignait, ils ont ouvert le paquet, ont jet\u00e9 un coup d'\u0153il \u00e0\nl'int\u00e9rieur du Nouveau Testament, puis l'ont rang\u00e9 dans leurs bagages.<\/p>

Deux jeunes hommes ont refus\u00e9 un paquet, l'un disant qu'il l'avait d\u00e9j\u00e0 et l'autre expliquant\npourquoi il ne le prendrait pas. Le distributeur leur a montr\u00e9 Jean 1: 1-14. \u00c9mu, le deuxi\u00e8me\nhomme a pris 'Plus qu'un Charpentier'.<\/p>

Trois hommes d'\u00e2ges diff\u00e9rents dans un terminal bond\u00e9, pouss\u00e9s par les paquets les plus\nanciens et accept\u00e9s. Un plus tard a retourn\u00e9 le cadeau; il avait trop \u00e0 porter. Il s'est allum\u00e9,\ncependant, lorsque le distributeur lui a remis un DVD.<\/p>

Une femme a \u00e9cout\u00e9 avec joie les \u00e9vang\u00e9listes, se tenant la main pendant qu'ils parlaient.\nElle ne savait pas lire, alors les \u00e9vang\u00e9listes ont expliqu\u00e9 le DVD de JESUS. Elle pr\u00e9voyait de\nle regarder une fois de retour en Afrique du Nord.<\/p>

Deux adolescents ont indiqu\u00e9 avoir re\u00e7u le Christ lorsque des voisins espagnols ont partag\u00e9\nl'\u00c9vangile avec eux. Les Espagnols avaient r\u00e9cemment appris \u00e0 t\u00e9moigner dans la puissance du Saint-Esprit. Quatre hommes nord-africains ont \u00e9galement partag\u00e9 leur foi avec audace apr\u00e8s une formation similaire en arabe.<\/p>

Trois adolescents ont \u00e9cout\u00e9 l'\u00c9vangile apr\u00e8s que l'un d'eux a dit avoir lu le Nouveau Testament en ligne. Un autre avait le Nouveau Testament et a dit qu'il avait re\u00e7u le Christ en le lisant. Le troisi\u00e8me a invit\u00e9 le Christ dans sa vie pendant qu'ils parlaient.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

un-Locked<\/span><\/h4>

Un couple, lors de leur marche de verrouillage de phase 1, a entendu de la musique arabe\ndepuis une voiture gar\u00e9e. Ils ont offert un paquet qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 accept\u00e9 de mani\u00e8re d\u00e9cisive.

Un homme se rendant \u00e0 un repas de fin de Ramadan a refus\u00e9 le paquet. Lorsqu'on lui a\noffert une cl\u00e9 USB, il a chang\u00e9, l'acceptant avec une appr\u00e9ciation abondante.

Un jeune homme lisait le Wonder Book sur des marches isol\u00e9es.

Deux hommes assis, l'un utilisant son t\u00e9l\u00e9phone, acceptaient les cl\u00e9s USB. L'utilisateur du\nt\u00e9l\u00e9phone a mentionn\u00e9 J\u00e9sus au t\u00e9l\u00e9phone et \u00e0 l'autre homme.

Dans une grande ville, apr\u00e8s avoir entendu l\u2019histoire personnelle d\u2019un distributeur, une\njournaliste nord-africaine et son amie ont pris la d\u00e9cision de recevoir le Christ.

Un homme a cherch\u00e9 \u00e0 lire une pr\u00e9sentation de l'\u00c9vangile. Un homme a essay\u00e9 de le\ndissuader. Le distributeur a ensuite partag\u00e9 l\u2019importance de l\u2019\u00c9vangile \u00e0 l\u2019aide de son\nhistoire. L'homme a tenu bon et un jeune homme \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 a accept\u00e9 un paquet.

Une femme a accept\u00e9 un paquet, mais, \u00e0 cause de Covid-19, a soudainement sembl\u00e9\neffray\u00e9e. Elle prit des mouchoirs et attrapa le paquet avec eux.

Un vendeur d'un march\u00e9 aux puces a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 lire son Nouveau Testament. Quelqu'un a\nattrap\u00e9 ses livres, les jetant au-del\u00e0 de la gu\u00e9rison. Le distributeur a donn\u00e9 au vendeur une cl\u00e9 USB, pour son plus grand plaisir.

Une femme a ri de joie en obtenant le Nouveau Testament, le DVD de JESUS, Plus qu'un\ncharpentier et le livre des merveilles.

A young man, harshly rebuked for taking a packet, entered the port determinedly keeping his gift. Similarly rebuked, an older couple gently held on to theirs.

Une femme a accept\u00e9 un paquet sans h\u00e9sitation et en a demand\u00e9 un deuxi\u00e8me \u00e0 donner \u00e0\nun ami. Elle a alors commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 lire.
\u200b
Un homme a parl\u00e9 positivement d'avoir un paquet avant. Il a accept\u00e9 une cl\u00e9 USB pour\n\u00e9couter l'audio du film JESUS.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
