?25 years ago a teacher was worried for his mother’s souls – since she was already old. So he invited 6-7 saints to his house. Soon after the 69-year-old mother sat down in a circle with saints, the son, though being a teacher, lost his control & cried out loudly in front of them! The stone-hearted mother deeply touched. She patted her son & said, “Don’t cry, son, mum believe in Jesus la…” afterward she was baptized. 25 years passed by , the mother lived till her 94. Yesterday I spoke in her funeral, preaching “Covenant of Peace, God of Mercy” to large group of unbelieving relatives.
“For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee. “ Isaiah 54:10

With pure heart pure & love your brothers :

? Bro Caleb from Angola, reporting the numerous believers in that poor country . Angola is bigger the Inner Mongolia of China, . The first president swore to eradicate Christian churches within 20 years. During this open prosecution for several decades, thousands of saints were killed or imprisoned. But the church reborn in all these torture & wars, the blood shed made the Angolans love God purely instead. There are 9.4 in every 10 of them believe in Jesus! (Only the churches of the Brethren numbered 1,200 there). If you have a map, find out Angola , prayed for the repentance of whole nation for 3 minutes.

? Last morning was my last gospel meeting in this month. I spoke on the topic “Trio of Life” (Psalms 23) : 1.Life is a journey 2.Life is a miracle 3.Life is a blessing. After the meeting, I talked with an elderly. She testified that she wassuddenly sick in the previous day. However, since she promised her son to come for gospel meeting, she learnt to pray for healing. She
was perfectly fine when she got up in the next day. She got no choices but to believe!
