The Sissification of the Church: Phil Johnson

Armor of God Testimonies


You will find the most recent testimonies that we have received through the Armor of God Project, a ministry of Ten-Four Ministries. You can see additional testimonies here.

"I received my vest. I felt like a kid opening a present at Christmas once it arrived. The vest fits amazingly. Thank you all for what you do. You truly are amazing. Thanks you so much."


"I am a certified and sworn officer and been one since 1993. The vest I have is 12years old. My wife and I have twins (2yrs) and I have two other children. I am a Christian and feel this has been brought to my attention because of my need that GOD see's. I would buy a new vest but do not have enough money. Arrested a city councilman last week and been getting threats ever since and the vest I have would not work if it was hit.....I appreciate your thought and help if you so choose to do so..your brother in Christ."


"I received the best gift today, since the birth of my children. Thank you very much. I only wished that I could thank you in person and shake your hand. As you know I work for a small department (4 officers) that does not have the budget to supply vests. Again Thank You Very Very Much."


"I received my vest today and its a perfect fit. God works in many ways and this is a true blessing from God and your project. I pray for your ministry everyday for its continued success. My God keep you and all police officers surrounded by a hedge of protection. I now have another layer of armor to go with the armor our Lord Jesus has had around me for 30 years in law enforcement. Work safe, thank you and God Bless you. "


"I received today the vest that you had sent to me. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to you and your staff at Ten-Four Ministries. The Armor of God Project has ensured that if the situation ever arose I will be protected. This gives my wife, my children, and myself peace of mind knowing I stand a better chance on making it home. Thank you for helping me with this need. God Bless."

The Man Pounding A Nail In His Nose

I just returned from Southern California and had the humble honor to assist the Ambassadors' Academy with their four-day intensive evangelism training. I must tell you that I always return from this training with the same thing in mind. If you love Jesus Christ, you would love this training. Let me encourage you to check it out.

In addition to being around 45 students that love the Lord, I finally met a Pastor that I have been listening too and reading for some time. In fact, Pastor Matt Johnson was my roomate. Do you want to know the heart of Matt? Start by reading his latest blog post and watch his inspiring Open-Air Sermon at Huntington Beach below.

Ten-Four Ministries Partners With the Pittsburg County Sheriff's Office


Ten-Four Ministries was humbled to be able to join with the Pittsburg County (OK) Sheriff's Department today and outfit their SWAT Team with Tactical Vests. We received the vests valued at over $120,000 several weeks ago from a generous agency. At the time we did not know a place for them to go but as we have seen so often in the last year, God sent an agency our way. The Pittsburg County SWAT Team was recently formed but they had very limited funds for equipment. The agency located the Armor of God Project, a ministry of Ten-Four Ministries that has provided close to 900 free ballistic vests to peace officers in need around the world in the last year.

Myself and Tulsa Police Corporal Dan Ward and Ten-Four Ministries Board member drove 90 minutes south and was surprised to have almost every deputy from the SWAT team waiting on us upon our arrival. Despite several working nights and being off-duty, they were excited to see us and their new vests.

As we began to speak to the team, Sheriff Joel Kerns stepped in and introduced himself. I asked the Sheriff if I could address his SWAT Team and he encouraged me to. He pointed to a sign in the room we were in, which was an order from him that profanity was not allowed. I should have known then what Sheriff Kerns leadership was pursuing for his deputies. I shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the SWAT Team. It was an amazing opportunity and I am sincerely grateful for Sheriff Kerns permitting me to. Below is a video of our Gospel Presentation to the group.

Each Deputy also received a copy of Take Up The Shield and an excellent Gospel Tract that we use from Anchored In Truth.

We were able to personally meet most of the deputies and then Sheriff Kerns and Sergeant Bedford graciously permitted us to speak to them on camera about their involvement with the Armor of God Project.

What an honor it was to meet these real life heroes and have the opportunity to share with them about Christ. I am continually amazed that God has given me these opportunities. To Sheriff Kerns and the Pittsburg County Sheriff's Office...Thank you for spending part of your day with us.
