Hey Reader,

Did you know that Jesus is making Himself known to Jewish people today?

Praise God, He is opening the eyes of His chosen people Israel to the good news that Jesus is their Messiah!

I received a newsletter the other day from Jews For Jesus, and there was an article titled, "Jesus Appears to Atheist Man Three Times."

That caught my attention immediately.

Many Christians around the world are praying faithfully for Israel to receive her Messiah, and what wonderful fruit God is bringing to bear from those prayers, in many ways.

The testimony in that article is just one of many, and God will use any means to make Himself known.

The article says that a man in his 30s who was raised in a secular Jewish home was an atheist, until "Jesus appeared to him through dreams and visions three times before he fell to his knees in repentance."

Wonderful!

One of the local missionaries helped disciple the young man and help him join a local body of believers, and it is clear that he is truly born again in Messiah—hallelujah!

He is constantly sharing the gospel and many of his friends and family have accepted Jesus as Lord, too.

When a person is truly born again, there will be fruit—telling others about who Jesus is and what He has done for them, studying the scriptures, and seeking discipleship and fellowship with other believers.

There is a transformation that takes place, and others can see a difference in the new believer's life, and their joy in the Lord is evident!

We can be sure that God will use whatever means necessary to reach the lost.

Both the Old and New Testaments tell of God revealing Himself through dreams and visions, and even the apostle Paul had a vision of the Lord Jesus Christ that led him to see and trust in Him as Messiah.

While there are some preachers and even popular evangelists today who attribute Jesus' appearance in dreams as a demonic deception, thank God Almighty, they are WRONG.

When a life is truly converted through new birth in Christ, the gospel is proclaimed and God is glorified. These testimonies stand the test of time and can be trusted, especially in places that are unreceptive and even hostile to the gospel.

A new believer who faces persecution and stands firm in Christ is soundly saved—it is proof that Jesus' appearance to them was very real and the absolute opposite of demonic deception.

Yes, it is important to test every testimony, seeing if it lines up with scripture and that those who claim the name of Christ bear good fruit. But when it is clear that they do, we must embrace such dear ones as brothers and sisters, and we must praise Christ for revealing Himself to them, even when He uses dreams and visions to do so!

Have a wonderful week, my friend, and choose to live by grace!
