I REMEMBER MISSIONARY TOMMY TILLMAN OF HARBOUR EVANGELISM

Dear beloved friends,

Today is the mensiversary of  dear Servant of Jesus Christ – Missionary Tommy Tillman who went to Glory on December 10th 2020

How blessed is the memory of this dear man of God. My heart just melted to tears thinking of him

It was in the 1980s when Tommy Tillman visited us in KL JSM before he finally found his calling in Thailand & Mongolia ministering among the lepers.

To make a long story short we came to know Tommy Tillman when we started the BEREAN BOOK CENTRE Book Ministry in 1982 to 1987

At that time we promoted SWORD OF THE LORD papers founded by Dr John R. Rice & FAITH FOR THE FAMILY Monthly Magazine by BOB JONES UNVERSITY

It was Dr. Curtis Hudson who introduced Tommy Tillman to us. And in transit to Thailand & Mongolia later he preached & taught among us. SWORD OF THE LORD people called him “Tiny Terrible Tommy Tillman”

BUT LET CALVIN TELL YOU, “THERE IS NO ONE  ON EARTH WITH A BIGGER HEART THAN DEAR TOMMY TILLMAN THAT I KNOW OF”

He visited the Leprosy Camp in Sungai Buloh, Malaysia. His BIG HEART Embraced them with LOVE.

His messages among us were Filled with Love.

How great is this dear man of God!

Below are the photos taken (Circa 1980s)

In the center is TOMMY TILLMAN

Below is the SWORD OF THE LORD papers by Dr John R. Rice

Background are Books Stocked by BEREAN BOOK CENTRE

(Tommy said, “”In the US they don’t pronounce Centre but “Center” is the correct word for Americans

And the outgrowth of Books is Knowledge

See the Bible Class : Brother Tommy (THOMAS) our guest teacher

 

More Eager Students every Sunday Drawn By THE WORD OF GOD

 

Above is some of the most blessed times as we gather round the LIVING WORD OF GOD which fed our hungry souls

From all over the world Great Fundamental Books are shipped here & then resold by “BEREAN BOOK CLUB” to many other Churches & denominations until it was closed in year 1987 by JSM leaders

More about that later

 

Brethren, please pray for us

Thank you

Further note:
By 1982 to 1987  Brother Tommy Tillman already in his fifties when he should be preparing for his retirement in USA yet he gave his life for the leper and outcast of Thailand & Mongolia
Fundamental Baptist Growth was near its peak with hot SWORD CONFERENCES yet Tommy left it all for JESUS!
“He that shall lose his life for Jesus shall save it”
Harbour Evangelism Ministry continues under Tommy Tillman son Mitch Tillman in Mongolia. Please pray for this ministry. https://harborevangelism.com/
1980s were also very divisive times in USA when Dr. Peter Ng returned from the States & warned of Fundamentalist Camp split into two by the KJV  VPP Controversy. This was embryonic  then before it reached the Shores of Singapore & Malaysia much later
More about that in later posts.
