This will be an update to let our constituency know about the many ways that God is blessing the ministry of Understand The Times at the present time. While I am still very cautious with regard to committing myself to extended periods of travel, my speaking schedule continues a week from today when I will be participating in the “Learn to Discern Ministries Conference” held in Mission, British Columbia, Canada, May, 27-29.

Other speakers at this conference will be Ray Yungen, Warren Smith, Sandy Adams, and Caryl Matrisciana.  The web site for the conference is http://www.ltdmin.com/register.html

If you are anywhere in the Vancouver, Canada area this would be an excellent opportunity to hear like-minded speakers confront the apostasy of the day from a biblical perspective.  The letters and e-mails that we have been receiving from around the world indicate to me that some Christians are beginning to wake up and see how they have been manipulated by wolves in sheep’s clothing who are leading them to market. This conference will help those who attend to see what is happening, where it is headed and what to do about it.

Also, I have now arranged my summer speaking tour for Europe that will take me to Ukraine, Norway and England the first 18 days of July. After that I will be spending most of the summer months in Canada working on our future ministry base for Understand The Times.

With the help of Ron Pierotti and others we are moving ahead with our Understand The Times Online Bible School and we are preparing for the establishment of Understand The Times Radio and Television. Hopefully within a few weeks we will be able to try out a few sample programs of our news program dealing with current events called “The Bible in the News.”

I have also been working closely with Lighthouse Trails Publishing as we they are preparing to release the updated version of “Let There Be Light.” This book will show how God has led and directed my life over the years and how the ministry has expanded worldwide in spite of tremendous opposition from within and without Christianity.

Speaking of opposition specifically, please know that we are praying for our enemies who have dedicated their lives to preventing ministries like Understand The Times from telling the truth. These counterfeit Christians spread lies, innuendos and rumours targeted to discredit those who that tell the truth and expose Satan's plan to deceive the church in the Last Days. This of course, is to be expected, as we are in the last of the Last Days.

The judgment seat of Christ is just ahead. This will be the great equalizer for those who have built up for themselves their own financial kingdoms that, like all other kingdoms established by man, will fade away into oblivion.

Please pray for us as we continue to seek God’s will.  

Sincerely In Christ,
Roger Oakland
