Appeal for Purity Two Year Anniversary!

Time indeed flies, doesn’t it?

Well, guess what, Appeal for Purity is going to celebrate its two year anniversary on Saturday, October 31, 2015.

This page was launched on the Halloween day, Thursday, October 31, 2013. We didn’t launch it on that day intentionally. I guess it was divinely orchestrated to thwart the work of the devil. May the name of our Lord Jesus Christ be praised forever!

So, this is how we are planning to celebrate the Appeal for Purity Ministries’ two year anniversary.

If you benefited from this ministry in one way or the other and want to see more of this ministry in the future in different social medias, let’s us hear from you starting today.

How do we want to hear from you? Well, drop us a video clip, in the message box, of you telling us how you benefited from this ministry. Or, you can voice recorder your message or you can drop us a note, in writing, telling us how God ministered to you through this ministry.

Once we have enough number of these clips/notes, God willing, we put them all together and make a short video and release it on the anniversary day.

We love to hear from all of you who want to see this ministry flourishing and reaching out to millions. ///

It is always good to be HOME!

Praise the LORD! I’m back home after I had a wonderful three days long conference at the Ethiopian Evangelical Church (EEC) in Toronto, Canada.

As I always do, I would like to leave a “Thank you” note here on this page to those who gave me this great opportunity and made my stay in Toronto an enjoyable and memorable one.

I first would like to say “Thank you” to Pastor Alemayehu and his beloved wife, for inviting me over to minister and worship God with teens, young adults, singles and married folks of the Toronto Ethiopian Evangelical church. Thank you! May the LORD continue using you for His glory! Continue reading It is always good to be HOME!

Sexual purity starts at the eye

When we know how to take control of our eyes, we can be in a good shape to take control of our actions; what our body parts choose to do. If we lose the battle at our eyes, we lose the battle that is waging against our whole body and we get stuck in all sorts of destructive habits and lifestyles.

Jesus said, ““The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light.  But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!”                   (Matthew 6:22-23) ///

A Woman Came as a Solution

“So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals. But for Adam no suitable helper was found.” Genesis 2:20

And God solved this problem by taking a rib out of Adam, and made Eve and brought her to Adam. Because of the original design, she belongs to only one man; in a covenant relationship of marriage of one man and one woman – just like the first wedding in the Garden of Eden – Genesis 2:21-25 ///

“A Born-Again Christian Man Never Ever Struggles with Sin”

A4P Guest: In one of your recent posts, you said, “a born-again Christian man who is free from sexual struggles is found in a cemetery or in heaven.” That means he is nowhere to be found on earth. What do you mean when you said “struggle”? The word “struggle” is defined as: a long effort to do, achieve, or deal with something that is difficult or that causes problems. Are you referring to the new created man (born-again) person having sexual struggle? Does the new born-again Christian have such continuous struggle with sin? If we are born of God, we could not commit sin. The seed in us is new. The born again person has no appetite for sin. There is, of course, a level of maturity in Christianity but a new born-again and matured Christian man never ever struggles with sin. 1 john 5:18 says, “We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them.” We are Spirit filled. Our old mind is renewed by the Spirit of God. If we are always under struggle what is the purpose of the Spirit in us?

“You offended some people by the video message you uploaded yesterday”

Hmm, I offended some people?

My friend, fornication, cohabitation, adultery and homosexuality are becoming our “alternative lifestyles” (we who profess to be Christians) while the Word of God says to us, “- – -Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)

Divorce is becoming one of the ways we deal with difficult marriages while God says, “I hate divorce.” (Malachi 2:16) Continue reading “You offended some people by the video message you uploaded yesterday”
