Greetings again dear Christian friends,
I begin by saying God's word is such a comfort at this time of ever increasing obstacles. It seems that more and more "Great Walls" are going up on every side and there truly is no end in sight of barriers to seeing some sort of victory. It is at times like this that God's word is so refreshing. I share with you this beautiful passage from Psalm 44.
"You are my King, O God;
Command victories for Jacob.
5 Through You we will push back our adversaries;
Through Your name we will trample down those who rise up against us.
6 For I will not trust in my bow,
Nor will my sword save me.
7 But You have saved us from our adversaries,
And You have put to shame those who hate us.
8 In God we have boasted all day long,
And we will give thanks to Your name forever. Selah. " Psalm 44:4-8
Although I give God thanks every day for many blessings toward me, I long for deliverance for the 10 Christian orphans being held for what to them has to seem like forever. They know to trust in God, they know I am "out there" helping to get them back, and they know they can pray and believe God will answer them.
I was looking at some of the past 2nd and 3rd grade Bob Jones University Press Christian Home Schooling work books for the kids and it is so awesome to review how much bible they know, the beautiful videos, teaching materials, testimonies of the power of God and great heroes of the faith they learned about and how prayer is powerful. All this is so valuable for them now. They also were well taught about the false teaching of evolution and even certain philosophies of the world. It really is true when many of us quote Proverbs 22
Proverbs 22:6 - "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. 2Timothy 3:16,17
These kids are well trained in God's word and only this could carry them this far through this horrible persecution against them.
There has to be an end to the "results" of all the lies that have come against us. I decided to list some of the main lies below to show just how much falsehood has been hurled against me, the kids and other Christians who have work with me.
1. Melody "Rat" Zhang, her partner Cui Lan Xin who was her "representative fill-in" on the Shang Hai TV program on June 1st,2015 as well as 4 American "Christian" women and some of the husbands who drove the vans, all worked together with the lie of "blunt force punches" to Phoebe's kidney to "take" the kids. (Truth is I was in Alaska in mid August 2014 when Phoebe was injured and my passport shows my return date of September 11th,2014) All this was cleared up in no less than 5 interrogations from police to security police to customs people and of course much coverage in the press.
This lie was even used recently with the abduction of Gold Flower and Gold Bar, several ladies worked through deception of me to give the kids to 5 thugs, a lady and a so called lawyer. Meanwhile I am trying to race back on a motorcycle to talk with them. They only left the lawyer to tell me. The lady that formerly helped me with signing a foster care contract was approached by CCTV to ask about where Gold Flower was and how is she doing. I don't know if she was forced, coerced or gave in to the pressure, but she worked against me. This place can be truly scary for locals as the pressure is enormous.
2. Big lie number 2 is the story Melody gives everybody now including Dwyatt Gantt her boss. She now tries to present a version that says Ray didn't have paper work to properly care for the orphans and she never said anything about abuse of Phoebe. She lies to anyone confronting her and especially her cropping the picture of me and using it along with the first newspaper story published on November 20th,2014. The main reason I know the truth is thanks to the kids. They heard her tell them in the room where they are staying now. She came in an attempted to "comfort" them with "rescuing" them from "the abusive" foreigner and even told the kids she had the picture put in the paper. It is nice to have cell phones to talk with each other and the kids were smart enough to out smart the workers and get in contact with me that whole first day. The truth has been prevailing and it will eventually clear all this up by the grace of God. It is amazing how easy this would be if anyone could get in there and talk with the kids. This is the systems "Trump Card". I say that also because I am getting tired of the Donald Trump lies against Ted Cruz. The Chinese system's trump card is simple. Don't let anyone have any contact with these very smart, gifted, fluent in Chinese and English Christians orphans.The truth would come out, right??!! I am confident God is going to bring that to a screeching halt some day soon. Amen???!!!!
3. The lie that says things like, "Ray didn't feed them well, didn't cloth them well, didn't educate them well, didn't provide for them well, didn't protect them properly, and worst of all, taught them things that have made them stubborn and hard to re-educate. Uhhhh, excuse me Chinese press, authorities and all relevant agencies, please visit my website (As if they haven't already) and you can see 11 years of beautiful pictures and some good videos too that speak for millions of word in a Christ honoring testimony of God's love. I am either the greatest photo cropper known to Silicon Valley or the pictures are showing the actual love, joy and peace these lovely children possess. The comfort for me is knowing the kids are still together and encouraging each other in the love of God and fellowship of the Spirit and studying His word to keep them strong. There is no way God is going to tolerate much more of this. Judgement is coming and I only have to look at His word to know that.
4. Another big lie is how can a single man do so much with so many kids. This is the easiest to answer. I don't do it myself. I have grandma Guo, Maggie, Samuel and others who have helped. I also have trained the older children to help care for the younger ones. This is obviously my most valuable contribution to the kids. They are extremely independent. I know this amazes the Chinese leaders and I am thankful it does. Unfortunately they are jealous of it too. Hence the long battle. I have tried to encourage them to work together, using our talents and abilities to help orphans have a better quality of life. It is so sad they are hell bent on just being belligerent about it. You guys see it in the press and it permeates every part of society at present. I am not sure if I can get by "Lie 4". Even recently with my high level contacts, everything has continue to be silent on their end. I know they are all under huge pressure, but from who? Is it really from the top? I know it is high up. God has to have a plan, those guys are all there by Daniel 2:21. Oh and by the way, they also leave based on Daniel 2:21
I share all this to give you all some idea of where we are at present. I continue to visit the "protection" center with grandma Guo and just the other day told several workers to wish Sarah a Happy 9th Birthday. I have been virtually cut off now from seeing the 3 teenage heart surgery boys but I have ways to go through others to help them. As for Jiang Jia Yi, she is doing better but the recovery is slow. Min Xiu (Mean Show) is coming back to Beijing for a check-up on Friday, pray everything goes smooth with that visit. Pray also for Mr.Cheng, I want to know where he is and is he back in jail? Like last time, he did nothing wrong, only he agreed to let uncle Ray foster care his two children over any other official option. Anybody still want to vote for Bernie or Hillary or Donald over the "Lion truth" Ted Cruz. Come on Indiana, Nebraska and California! Go Cruz!!!!!
Enclosed is a picture of Jiang Jia Yi giving me a "love pat" on my face. She is a special girl to me and I praise God she is doing better. Pray about her ever increasing expenses. On Phoebe's body, we thought it was going to be released soon. I still don't know how to handle that expense?? I will find a way somehow to pay the 12 or 13 thousand dollars to lay her to final rest. What a country huh??!!!
There is another picture of Melody's "replacement" for the Shang Hai TV program. The TV crew told me that Melody was supposed to be there, this Cui Lan Xin is accusing me of abuse in the picture taken of the TV show.
Ray and the 10 and lifting up the Gold kids, Mr.Cheng and the heart surgery orphan children as well as many more in the future.
