Glory is sanctification completed.
Answers to Prayer
The evidence that Jesus is God’s promised deliverer is mounting each week. How much proof does one need? Jesus is the Christ and very much God, as we are learning in Luke. He is also the final Judge over nations, and individual hearts, as we are learning in Revelation. We can’t forget the long forgotten song Vera Knight requested Pastor Rigsby to sing, “In love with the Lover of my soul.” We are blessed!
The Bible conference for the youth in the Korean congregation was blessed by God! There were many reports of salvations and new commitments to our Lord! Thank you for praying.
