SAD NEWS: Just Now; American evangelist and preacher Andrew Wommack Reportedly Takes his own life…
Born in New York State, Cahn was raised in a Jewish family, the son of a Holocaust refugee, and attended the synagogue frequently. Aged 20, after a near-death experience, he converted to Messianic Judai[1] He graduated from the State University of New York at Purchase.[2] Cahn started “Hope of the World Ministries”, an international outreach of evangelism and compassion projects for the needy and currently is the president of the organization.[3] He is married to Brazilian Renata and they have three children.[1]
Cahn is the head of the Beth Israel Worship Center congregation whose “liturgy focuses on Jesus as savior.” The group had been located in Garfield, New Jersey throughout the 1990s but moved to Wayne, New Jersey in 2008. Their arrival in Wayne was viewed with suspicion by local leaders of Judaism as “Messianism has been condemned by Jewish clergy and leaders as a cloak for Christian missionizing.” With the arrival of Cahn’s group, the YM-YWHA of North Jersey held a counter-missionary event with a member of Jews for Judaism. Cahn told reporters that “the congregation has no intention of ‘targeting’ the Jewish community. However, anybody is welcome at the center.”[4]
Focused on end times prophecy, Cahn has said that the United States is “on the wrong path” due to the prevalence of abortion, the pursuit of gay rights, and the perceived decline in the public role of religion.[1] He has cast President Donald Trump as a heroic and biblical figure, and has attended Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort with other activists.[1] Later, he has claimed that President Joe Biden has put the United States under “demonic possession” for lighting up the White House in LGBTQ Pride rainbow colors.[5]
