A pastor who is ministering in the Middle East was reportedly saved by lions who prevented a group of Islamic extremists from attacking him and a group of Christians.
Pastor Paul Ciniraj’s story seems like a story straight out of the Bible. Pastor Paul detailed the modern-day miracle on his ministry’s website.
"My risen Lord Jesus Christ has saved my life once again," Pastor Paul wrote, "and I praise and thank God for His unspeakable grace!"
Before the attack when the lion saved him, Pastor Paul had been attacked by another group of Islamic extremists. He had escaped and was recovering at the home of a former Muslim who was a Christian convert. The man’s home was near a forest area.
Pastor Paul led worship services there. On Easter Sunday, while a group of believers was gathered and he was leading one such service, militants came upon them, brandishing weapons.
"We had no idea what to do," Pastor Paul recalled. The group of Christians thought they were all about to die.
Just then, a lion appeared out of the forest and began to attack one of the militants. The other two militants tried to fight the lion off, but then two more lions appeared. The militants ran away in fear and the lions left Pastor Paul and his group alone.
"Equally astonishing," Pastor Paul added, "records show no lions are supposed to live in that forest."
Awesome
Amen Tank You!
Very cool. Thanks for the report Jim.
Daniel? Is that You?
Lions saving Christians? That’s a change of pace right there. Guess The Good Lord got tired of using bears...
The Lord is using wild boars too.
Has the video been uploaded to youtube yet?
Revelation 6:7&8 the 4th seal is broken and the ashen horse of death goes forth. While there have been more reported deaths by animals (HEY, including pit bulls), it also includes war, famine, and death ( by disease).
I believe this is the warning time before the Great Trib but I also believe there is going to be a world wide revival. I will be keepin a prayerful watch on Pastor Paul as I do former Marine Victor Marx of All Things Possible Ministries. Great Facebook presence.
I was going to share the link but there is a virus on their pages. (I did contact them)
Wonderful.
Cool story, I hope it is true, but the lions are going to have do this a lot more before we can call it even.
Good one.
This is so cool.
Kinda gives me goose bumps, man.
Later that night around the ISIS campfire - “Y’all aren’t gonna believe this Shi’ite that happened today....”
1. “”Equally astonishing,” Pastor Paul added, “records show no lions are supposed to live in that forest.””
Someone forgot to tell the lions that.
2. The good pastor’s Christian friends should probably attempt to cultivate the lions’ further friendship. It would probably help keep Islamists away.
Love it. He’s saved all of us on many occasions, if we’d think on it.
What an awesome story to think that our God of yesterday is still the same today and yes even tomorrow.
Roarrrrrrrr
