GOD’S PHILOSOPHY REVEALED IN HIS LAW OF TRUTH & RIGHTEOUSNESS

July 1, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

GOD’S PHILOSOPHY REVEALED IN HIS LAW OF TRUTH & RIGHTEOUSNESS

“To the law and the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Isa. 8:20, KJV.

“The wisdom and power of God, working upon the receptive [not doubting, murmuring or stubborn] heart, brings mind and character into harmony with the laws and rules of heaven. INDIVIDUALLY we must have the guidance of the Holy Spirit, in order to COMMUNICATE to the world the great facts of truth and righteousness.

“We are bidden to sound an ALARM [not a peace-and-safety message] to the people.
