President's Corner

Another year has come to an end and we have experienced events which should awaken us all from our slumbers. Never before have we seen such a dramatic fulfillment of prophetic events as we have witnessed during this last year. Since the visit of Pope Francis to the USA last year we have seen the ratification of the Paris Agreement on the Environment by the UN. This agreement in a large measure is the recognition of the Papal encyclical on the environment which also contains the call for Sunday sacredness and the Eucharist celebration. We have witnessed the dramatic events surrounding the US elections and the promises of Donald Trump to end the separation of church and state, an event long foretold and so little believed. Moreover, we have seen the signing of the “Unity of Religions Agreement” and the evangelical push for reunification with Rome with many evangelic leaders from the US making the trip to Rome to show their solidarity with that power.

With the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation before us in 2017 and the promise to “bury the hatchet” with Rome, we are experiencing another fulfillment of prophecy and the Lord must be crying out as in the days of Isaiah:

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me. And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not. Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed. Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate. Isaiah 6:8-11

If ever there was a time for the loud cry to go to the world, it is now. Who will go for the Lord? Who will warn before the cities be wasted? We fervently believe that Amazing Discoveries has an important role to play in this prophetic call and we are willing to go and we hope that all the AD supporters will join us in this important mission.

With the coming new year, we at Amazing Discoveries are looking forward to enhancing and improving our evangelistic projects with more outreach goals and targets. In 2017, I will record a series on location in Europe on the subject of the reformation to be aired not only on AD.tv but also on secular TV stations. The series will take an in-depth look at the issues that started the reformation and how they are still valid today. I will continue this reformation theme with several presentations in March and October 2017 to be held in Germany and Montenegro on the subject. In addition, he will be recording a new Genesis Conflict series for secular television, allowing us to have more material available for channels such as Novus, Joy TV, Zoomer TV, and if funds allow and God opens doors, Global TV. The costs for airtime on secular TV stations is enormous and support from our friends and supporters will be vital. Enmity will of course continue with further episodes in 2017. In addition, I work will involve a new style of presentations, including documentaries and programming featuring new speakers in new formats and settings to attract newer audiences.

The production department at AD is gearing up for these new presentations and new speakers with an overhaul of our studio this winter, and the purchase of cameras to replace our aging ones. The costs associated with the overhaul will be $300,000 USD. These are just some of AD's plans with more to be announced soon.

We want to express our sincere appreciation for all the moral and financial support we have received during this past year. Only in heaven will we see the results but from what we are witnessing from all over the world we can truly say that the Lord is moving among the nations and many are waking up to the truth. Please pray for us at AD that we may remain consecrated vessels and that we may remain focused as we know that the enemy is a roaring lion seeking to destroy all opposed to his will.
