His Presence Could Not Be Hidden

A History and Memoir of Proclaiming Jesus in the Middle East 1860-2006

The title of this book 'His Presence Could Not Be Hidden' was chosen from the last part of Mark 7:24 which speaks of Jesus visiting Tyre and Sidon, and of the impossibility of keeping His presence from being known. These final words fit the long history of Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East where countless attempts have been made, over the last 2,000 years, to keep His presence from being known, and to silence the message of the Lord Jesus Christ in this part of the world. He has persisted in being present through a faithful remnant and those with eyes to see kept finding Him; He could not be hidden.
