He betrayed his own people. He dined with the emperors who destroyed Jerusalem. And he wrote the only historical evidence of Jesus outside the Bible.

Flavius Josephus or Yosef ben Matityahu was a priest, general, prisoner, and historian. He survived a lottery of death, prophesied that Vespasian would become emperor, and documented the destruction of the Temple in AD 70 as an eyewitness.

Without him, we would know almost nothing about Masada, Herod, the Pharisees, the Essenes, or the world in which Jesus lived.

In this documentary, you will learn the complete story of the most controversial man in ancient Jewish history and understand why his writings still provoke intense debate two thousand years later.

The Bible tells us that Jesus was crucified outside of the city walls of Jerusalem, at Golgotha, "the place of the skull." Christians who lived in Jerusalem after his death knew exactly where that place was. But today, can we know with certainty the spot where Jesus was crucified? What does archaeology tell us?

Each revival in time past had God’s unique signature and outpouring of the Holy Spirit. For example, in the Toronto outpouring in the nineties, the Father’s love and outpouring of joy characterized the move of God. The Welsh Revival in 1904, similarly, had God’s special imprint: the spontaneous outbreaks of singing, prayer, open repentance, and confession.Of this revival, Reverend W. T. Stead remarked, “Hitherto the revival has not strayed beyond the track of singing people. It has followed the line of song, not of preaching. It has sung its way from one end of South Wales to the other. But then the Welsh are a nation of singing birds.” Here was revival led not so much by the preaching of man but by the Spirit of God lavishly pouring out on all flesh. There were also no advertisements, posters, or huge tents, yet throngs of people flocked to church meetings from England, and even America to experience firsthand the mighty outpouring of God’s presence. The beginnings of the revival could be traced to church services where ministers like Joseph Jenkins and Seth Joshua sought to share their passion and encounters with the Lord. Simultaneously, long meetings were held to seek the Lord’s presence and empowerment, and many people were baptized with the Holy Spirit. Over the course of less than a year, the Lord moved in Wales, and the rest of the UK, capturing tens and hundreds of thousands of souls for the Kingdom.




1 Once more, O Lord, we pray,
Put Thy strong armor on;
Strike down the shield of Satan’s pow’r;
Let victory be won.

Refrain:
Once more, O Lord, once more
Thy blessing we implore;
In Thy great name let vict’ry sweep
Thro’ Zion’s gates once more.

2 Lord Jesus, come today;
Let souls before Thee bow;
Be this Thine hour of triumph, Lord;
Oh, send salvation now. [Refrain]

3 Lord Jesus, come and reign;
Let error’s empire fall;
We long to see Thy glory shine,
And crown Thee Lord of all. [Refrain]

Desmond Doss, who didn't want to fire a gun and kill, also wanted to be of service to his country during the Second World War. By persevering faith, he endured hatred and bullying from his fellow soldiers and ultimately became a hero to them by saving their lives.

???? *In this Episode:* Desmond Doss made a name for himself - by saving lives. He refused to bear arms or carry a weapon - in the midst of World War 2 under constant enemy fire. He was unwilling to take a life or even so much as touch a weapon. He did however say that he would be proud to serve his country as an army medic if they would let him. He was the *conscientious objector* who chose to fight – fight in a way that would help people. He had the wild idea that he could serve his country at war and also obey the command: "Thou shalt not kill."

Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand: The Underground Pastor and His Wife | Full Movie

Before communism fell in Eastern Europe, Christians were often arrested and kept in prisons or labor camps where the Communists went to great lengths to break their faith. This is the story of a family whose faith endured.

Born in Romania, Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand became Christians after they were married. They soon began sharing the Gospel, even though it was prohibited. In 1945, Richard stood up publicly and proclaimed Christ while speaking out against communism. This bold move, as well as his work in the underground church, led to the Wurmbrands’ imprisonment by the Communist government. Richard and Sabina endured unthinkable horror at the hands of the Communists, but their faith and witness was only strengthened, even through multiple imprisonments. Widescreen.

After being ransomed out of Romania, the Wurmbrands dedicated themselves to helping the world understand the horrors that were occurring behind the iron curtain. They began a ministry now known as “The Voice of the Martyrs,” to bring awareness to the persecution of Christians. Their legacy lives on through the work they began and the many lives they touched.

When Nazi forces invaded Holland in 1940 and began rounding up Jews, Corrie ten Boom, her sister Betsie, and their elderly father risked their lives to save as many as possible. A hidden room was secretly built in their home where the oppressed Jews took refuge until a Gestapo raid put an end to their operation. For their “crimes,” Corrie and Betsie were sent to the notorious concentration camp at Ravensbruck, where they suffered relentless cruelty. Struggling to reconcile God’s goodness with the terrible realities of the camp, the sisters clung desperately to their Christian faith. Betsie died in the camp, but Corrie was miraculously released due to a clerical error. She spent the rest of her days caring for other death camp survivors and sharing her story with the world. Corrie’s 1971 best-selling book, The Hiding Place, provides her account of persevering faith and forgiveness in the face of terrible evil.
