The Christian Crusade for the Salvation of America and
the nation of Israel
From the founder
Greetings in the Name of
Jesus!
Hi, I'm Brother Tommie. The picture at the
right is a picture of my wife Judy and myself taken in 2007. We are glad
that you have visited our site. If you have been reading our material we
hope that you have enjoyed or will enjoy all of them. There are so many
people who write to us and want to know something about us, who we are and
who is writing the articles. Things like: "do we belong to a denomination
or a particular church group?" We hope that we can answer some of your
questions here.
Almost all of the teachings on our website
were written by myself. I am simply called Brother Tommie. I'm 69years old
and have been a Pastor for thirty years. As for College degrees in
religion and theology? I have none. Although there are many good ministers
who have, and do come out of seminaries there have been a large number who
have studied and even taught Bible theology who have never personally
known Jesus as their savior. Which would be an automatic disadvantage to
themselves when it comes to understanding. Simply because it is the Lord
who teaches us the scripture through the Holy Spirit. But to be educated
in theology and to be born again by the Spirit would be a definite
advantage.
The Christian Crusade for the Salvation of
America does not belong to any church group or organization. It is a not
for profit organization that was created by a handful of concerned
christians who are members of a number of different churches. I am praying
that we will be in the center of God's will.
As for the Source of
our information:
The number one source of our information came
through the revealing of the scriptures through the Holy Spirit. I can
take credit for nothing. I simply made myself available, listened and
studied as He gave me direction. The rest of the information came from
these sources.
The Holy Bible King James version, You will
find that every teaching is drawn from scripture in the Bible. The books
of references that have been used to locate the meanings of names and or
Bible historical items. have been ; Strongs Exhaustive Concordance. The
Holman Bible Dictionary, Nelson Bible Dictionary, The Biblical Cyclopedic
Index ,Thomas Nelson's version of the Open Bible king James version.
Clarence Larkins Dispensational truth which is used by the Assembly of God
organization. Dake's the rapture and second coming of Christ, and many
more writtings by Hal Lindsey.
It is rightly dividing the teachings that are
taught by others, compared to what the Bible has to say that helps us come
to the conclusions we make. A very thorough search was made concerning the
history of Israel from through the Bible to present day. From Bible
references, to encyclopedias, by the way, some of the older encyclopedias
are more informative than the most recent. Simply because they try to
cover everything more specifically.
Other Sources concerning Jewish history and
what is going on with the Jews today is found in Encyclopedias. However
there is a Jewish immigration group called HIAS. They are very informative
about the location of Jews and the amount of Jews that have immigrated to
different parts of the world. http://www.hias.org/ browze through the facts and figures for recent
information. There are a lot of good books on Jewish history to be found.
You will find if you do a little research yourself that I am telling the
truth concerning the information I have gathered.
More about
us
I have been since 1990 gathering the
information plus learning facts and figures out of the Old Testament. This
is one of the things that has hindered our education in Bible prophecy
today. Most people will not take time to learn the Bible. You don't have
to go to college to do it. Just take the time to do it. If a lot of prayer
and hard work is any kind of qualification then I may have a few.
However, My Grandfather and my Father were
ministers of the Gospel both have gone on to be with God. No person ever
told me that I should be a minister. God called me when I was around ten
years old. I refused to serve him until I was around 30yrs old. I am glad
that I know him now.
I love America and am very tired of seeing
the Church in America try to destroy her through ignorance of scripture. I
also do not believe in trying to make the work of the lord a means
of making money. This is the reason I have placed all of my teachings on
the Web to be copied if people want to. I also try to keep my name as low
profile as I can because so many ministries today are using God to build a
reputation for themselves. It is unfortunate that we at the Christian
Crusade do not have the funds to give away all of our paper copies. I
would if I could.
My wife Judy and I have five children and a
very large number of grandchildren. We lost one daughter to leukemia at
the age of 27. We believe in Grace through the blood of Jesus. I do not
teach or believe in any special doctrinal teachings such as water baptism
formulas or anything else that takes away from the glory of Jesus Christ
and the simplicity that is in him. It is through faith in him that we are
born again by the Spirit.
However there are people who have joined with
us in prayer and witnessing who may not share my views. This is ok by me.
I believe that if we are saved that we should be able to work together in
love in spite of our differences.
The Christian Crusade itself is made up of
people who all desire to see Israel come to know Jesus Christ as their
savior. We need your support in prayer. This is why we have placed this
information on the Web.
May God direct your heart.
Your brother in Christ
Tommie Spurgeon
