DEFYING DEATH zahapia Boiross - njosiie to Islam Stuart Robinson A biography by with Peter Botross CityHarvest Publications This book is dedicated to all those followers of Jesus who have been deployed on difficult assignments, who for the time being must remain nameless, but who are already well known as heroes in heaven. EHDORSEMEHTS - THE LIFE OF All EHTRAORDINARY CHRISTIAN Father Zacharia Botross is a skilled exegete pounding home applications in the dramatic oratorical manner of the great pulpit ministers ... At times he is a fiery evangelist ... At times he also becomes a holiness preacher ... He is one of the most powerful ministers of the Word of God we have ever heard. Edward Plowman Christianity Today News Editor (April 1978) “Silenced by the Church for years for rediscovering and preaching ancient truths, jailed for ministering to Muslims, “exiled” from Egypt to Australia, establishing a phenomenal church in England, freed to unleash his life long vision at 70, words can hardly describe the amazing life of Zakaria Botross. Today millions of Muslims watch his satellite programmes and visit his website. Countless thousands across the Arabic speaking Islamic world are turning to Christ because of his ministry. His life is littered with miracles and mayhem, daring danger and defying death. Reading this book will take you where you’ve never been before.” Dr. Pat Robertson Founder Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) “Nearly fourteen centuries ago Arab armies swept out from Arabia and within one hundred years overran formerly Christian countries from Afghanistan in the east to Morocco in the west. They impressed on local populations a new religion - Islam. With time the church mostly ceased to exist in those countries. But today God is reversing that trend. Muslims are turning to Christ. This is dangerous for the new believer and the messenger of Jesus, but Zakaria Botross doesn’t avoid danger. Through his unique ministry thousands of Muslims in the Arab world are coming to Christ. Read his story and be inspired by the God of the impossible.” Dr. George Hill California Victory Church Founder of Victory Churches International ii “Stuart Robinson has done a valuable service to the Christian church in bringing the life of this extraordinary Christian to our attention. Read it, and imagine what might happen to your church, your city, even your nation should God find the availability of a Zakaria Botross in us.” Dr. Allan Meyer Careforce Church Melbourne Australia Father Zakaria’s ministry through Life (Al-Hayat) Television Channel has deeply impacted millions of people throughout the Middle East and Europe. This pioneering ministry has challenged Islam in the Arab world like never before. The tide has turned after 14 centuries of ignorance. Fr. Zakaria and his challenging questions of Islam are the central topics of conversations in homes, cafes, taxis, political circles and in the Islamic national and international Media. Entire programs on Islamic Television are dedicated to discussing the questions raised by Fr. Zakaria Botross. Television hosts have publicly criticized Islamic scholars for their inability to offer adequate answers to the questions presented through Life (Al-Hayat) Channel. Father Zakaria’s courageous ministry has changed the way many Muslims and Christians view Islam, prompted Muslims to investigate hard questions and opened the doors wide for thousands of people to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Fr. Zakaria’s ministry has challenged and changed many Christians to live an active witness in their unreached communities. History will record the incredible impact and revolution in mission especially the eternal outcome of Fr. Zakaria’s ministry to Muslims worldwide. Defying Death is an outstanding and faith inspiring book. It gives the reader a glimpse of what the God of the supernatural is doing in the Arab Muslim world and how one man’s life has changed the destiny of thousands across many continents.
