May 2017 Dear Friends and Prayer Partners, We have just been reminded again of the significance of Easter, and whilst the bastions of Christianity are being assailed on every hand and side, it is good to know that Easter is still being kept up. Some do this by keeping the Jewish Passover, but we as Christians are called upon to keep the Lord’s Supper, which has for its main focus the remembrance of the Lord Jesus – His eternal being, His incarnation, His sufferings as a man culminating in His death on the cross, and His glorious resurrection from the dead. The Scriptures remind us that “He entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence”, having first “appeared […]

February 2017 Dear Friends and Prayer Partners, We trust that, as we have entered a new year, we have already experienced happiness in the Lord and in His work. The Psalmist declares: “Blessed [or Happy] is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, the Maker of heaven and earth. . .” (Psa. 146.5). Indeed, as we go about our daily work, how good it is to experience His presence with us and to be re-assured of hope for the future. As we view the world around us, we see chaos and a breakdown of law and order; left to man things will get worse and worse. In the last few days, […]

November 2016 Dear Friends and Prayer Partners, In our previous Q.M.B.C. Prayer News, we deplored the moral state of the world, and it continues to grow worse. The Apostle Paul said that “evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse” (2 Tim 3:13) and the Lord Jesus said that “such things must happen, but the end is still to come” (Matt 24:6). So we wait patiently for these words to be fulfilled. First we who have put our trust in the Lord Jesus Christ will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air (1Thess 4:16-17), after which the end will come for those left behind. How important it is to preach the Gospel, to urge people to escape the coming wrath! As […]

August 2016 Dear Friends and Prayer Partners, We are living at a time when the world around us is becoming more terrible by the day – murders on every hand and side, and people throwing up their hands in despair asking, “why does God continue to allow these things to happen?” And yet the Lord Jesus said to His disciples, “Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14.27). So why should Christians share the world’s despair with them? In the last few days we have heard acceptance speeches from the Republican and Democratic nominees for the next President of the USA, telling us how they would correct all wrongs and restore the USA and the […]

May 2016 Dear Friends and Prayer Partners, As we write another Prayer News, we are deeply appreciative of your prayers for this work and for our students. We cannot but be affected by the events taking place in the world today. We believe that the Lord’s coming is near (James 5.8), and according to His own promise, He will come again and receive us to be with Himself (see John 14.3). Please pray for our students, that they will realize the importance of the Scriptures they study, and that they will be ready to go with the Lord Jesus when He returns. Your prayers, both public and private, are powerful and effective (James 5.16), and your involvement in the work of QMBC in this way will […]
