MISSION STATEMENT
We Have One Sole Mission:
TO DO THE GREATEST COMMISSION IN ALL THE HISTORY
OF THE WORLD

This covers well defined, clear,


and simple things to do:

• To Proclaim THE GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD again to


all the peoples speaking different languages. To them who
inhabit and dwell in different countries, nations, and nation-
states. To proclaim it to their kings and monarchs, their top
leaders in the Eastern Hemisphere, (Rev. 10:11).

• To bring the EVERLASTING GOSPEL into these vast lands and


continents, over many mountains, across oceans, and seas, from
the space above, and the space below, (Mat 28:18-20; Mk 16:15-
18; Lk 24:46-49).
• To Preach, by the spoken word, the Good News of Christ’s return
to establish the KINGDOM OF GOD (Mat 24:14), that will reign
and rule the whole world from the eternal capital city of
Jerusalem, (Jer 3:17; Zech 14:3-9; Obad 21; Isa 2:2-4).

• To PUBLISH, by the written word, the Good Tidings of the end of


this present evil world. And the beginning of the NEW WORLD
coming (Mk 13:10; Isa 52:7), First for a thousand years. To
restore the original GARDEN OF EDEN

planetwide. To be followed by the RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, all


rising into a worldwide PARADISE. And ALL to live for a hundred years.
And then forever in the New Heaven and the New Earth. To spread to all

6
the Universe, (Mark 13:10; Acts 3:21; Rev 5:10; 20:4; Isa 65:20; Rev
20:11-15; Rev 21:1-7).

• To announce the arrival of the New Order of The Ages under the
DIVINE GOVERNMENT OF GOD RULED BY THE KING of kings
and LORD of lords, (Isa 9:6-7; Zech 14:3-9; Isa 2:2-4); assisted by
144,000 immortal kings and priests, (Rev 14:1). The Kingdom of
God will rule over the remnants of the Great Tribulation and the 7
Last Plagues, one-tenth of the world’s population (Isa 6:11-13;
24:1-21; 26:19; Mat 24:21-22; Rev 6:4, 8; 8:11; 9:11, 15), who
will be left alive, and considered worthy to be taught God’s Word,
God’s Will, God’s Way, and do God’s Work, (Isa 2:1-4), and
understand the deep things of God. All working together
cheerfully and joyfully to build the civilization of the Millennium
under God, to shine in truth and in righteousness (Isa 26:9), and
in peace (Isa 32: 17-18).

• To TEACH the pure WORD of GOD. To announce that the Good


News of True Salvation is now being fully PREACHED and
PUBLISHED among all the Gentiles. To bear the wonderful Good
News that the door to the Gentiles has now been opened wide by
the Captain of Salvation, the Author and Finisher of the Faith, the
CHRIST of GOD, (Acts 14:27; 18:6; 28:28; Col. 1:27).

• To make it known to them that their true hope is in CHRIST


JESUS. To be PROCLAIMED to all of them without fail that the
hope, and TIMES of the Gentiles is soon to be fulfilled, (Mat
28:19; Rom 11:11, 12, 13, 18; 15:16; Eph 3:6; 2 Tim. 1:11; Lk
21:24).

• To finally make known, reveal, make crystal clear, that the


ULTIMATE FINAL DESTINY OF MAN IS TO BE BORN AGAIN
INTO THE GOD FAMILY AND KINGDOM, OF GOD, BORN OF
THE SPIRIT, BORN OF GOD, IMMORTAL, ONE IN GOD, (Gen
1:26-27; Jn 3:3-21; Jn 17:21).

• To carry the WARNING, and for it to be a WITNESS to these


eastern nations.

• To DECLARE the arrival of the PROPHESIED DISTRESS and


TUMULT among the nations, (Col 1:28; Acts 1:8). That this shall
7
be made intense by the arrival of the PROPHESIED worldwide
DECEPTION, (Mat 24:4-5; 11:23-26).

• To sound the trumpet and push the button of the alarms of WAR,
even as the world is swamped with RUMORS OF WARS, (Mat
24:6-7).

• To WARN and TELL to the peoples of the East that the FOUR
HORSEMEN of the Apocalypse now rides with ferocious vigor.
Their long journeys across the millennia beginning from inside of
the GARDEN OF EDEN launched by the lying evil and wicked
serpent,, and will soon climax in the destruction of the wicked one
and his legions as evil and wicked, that old serpent Satan the
devil and his deceived fallen angels, (Rev 6:2 {white}; 6:4 {red};
6:5 {black}; 6:8 {pale}.

• To announce the arrival of the prophesied EARTHQUAKES, of


FAMINES, of PESTILENCES, and ALL THESE shall be the
BEGINNING OF SORROWS, (Mat 24:7-8).

• To warn of the presence of the prophesied FALSE PROPHETS,


who, from among them, the many will look to as unto gods, (Mat
24:1, 23-28).

• That the Work of God - 21st Century, is now here. Having been
raised by the Living Christ to commence the great beginnings of
this phase of the Work of God. ”Because a short work will the
Lord make upon the earth,” and for us His loyal servants, a short
time to do it in, (Rom 9:28).

• That we are NOT out to try to convince, NEITHER to forcibly try


to convert anybody, or anyone, anywhere, anytime. Yet we must,
as commanded by the Apostle and High Priest of our Profession,
teach all men everywhere to repent for the remission of sins, and
to do all things that Christ the Son of God has commanded us.
(Mat 28:19-20; Lk 24:47).

• That we earnestly teach and actively practice THE WAY OF


PEACE, (Mat 5:9; I Tim 2:2; Jas 3:17). For the world lost
knowledge of the way of peace (Rom 3:17; Isa 59:8).

8
• That we enthusiastically TEACH and faithfully PRACTICE the
Way to LOVE GOD with all our heart, our soul, and our mind, with
all our strength, and with all our understanding, (Mat 22:37; Mk
12:30, 33; Lk 10:27).

• That we sincerely teach, and continually practice THE WAY TO


LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR AS WE LOVE OURSELVES, (Mat 5:43;
19:19; 22:39; Mk 12:31; Lk 10:27; Rom 13:9; Gal 5:14; Jas 2:8).

• That we diligently teach and zealously practice HOW TO HAVE


TRUE SUCCESS now in this time, and in the world to come,
SPIRITUAL SUCCESS with EVERLASTING LIFE, (Mat 6:33; Mk
10:28-30; Jn 13:17; Isa 58:13-14).

• That we seriously teach and lovingly practice turning back the


hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the
children to their fathers, (Mal 4:6).

• That we gently, tenderly, patiently FEED and NOURISH


SPIRITUALLY THE FLOCK for whom Christ The Redeemer, the
Lamb of GOD died, and purchased with His own blood, (John
21:15, 16, 17; Acts 20:28; I Pet 5:2).

• That we compassionately, mercifully, and so kindly HEAL THE


SICK, (Lk 9:1,2; 10:9), when we encounter them as we go our
way to proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.

• That we do practice pure religion undefiled before God and make


visits and care for the helpless orphans, the fatherless, and the
widows in their affliction, (Jas 1:27).

• That we point to the nations and its peoples, and families, that the
Eternal Creator God has left a window open for the blessing of
health and prosperity to be known if they would be glad and sing
for joy, and PRAISE THE GOD OF CREATION for all His
wonderful works! That they would learn to PRAY and PRAISE the
Everlasting LORD, (Ps 67:1-7; Ps 147:1-20; 148:1-14; 149:1-9;
150;1-6; Mat 26.30; Mk 14.26; Eph 5.19; Col 3:16; Jas 5:13).

• Ultimately, we have to open the minds of the multitude to the


difference between the holy, and the profane, (Ezek 22:26;
9
44:23), to the end that we can turn many to righteousness, (Dan
12:3). Not by might, nor by power but by God’s Spirit, (Zech 4:6).
For this is God’s Will. By His Word. On His Way. To fulfill His
Work.

All these, to FEARLESSLY and COURAGEOUSLY PREPARE THE WAY


for the return of the GREAT GOD, our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST,
King of kings, and Lord of lords, (Mat 24:14; Mk 13:10; Titus 2:13; Rev
17:14; 19:16).

THIS IS THE VISION THAT THE LORD JESUS CHRIST INSPIRES FOR
THE WORK OF GOD – 21ST CENTURY TO DO IN THE ENTIRE EASTERN
HEMISPHERE.

The Work of God-21st Century JMC©2007, 2008, 2009

Dear Friend,

RECEIVE YOUR GIFT OF DIVINE LIGHT FOR TOTAL ENLIGHTENMENT


FROM THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.

HE DESIGNED THE WHOLE CREATION TO BE INHERITED BY THE


HUMAN RACE. ALL THE HUMAN FAMILIES HAVE THEIR HERITAGE
IN EVERYTHING THAT THE DIVINE MAKER OF ALL THINGS GOOD,
BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL EVER MADE. THE ALL MERCIFUL,
BLESSED SOVEREIGN OF ALL THE WORLDS LOOKS AT OUR PLANET
EARTH, HIS SHINING JEWEL ORBITING IN OUTER SPACE AROUND
THE CREATED SUN. HE SEES NO BOUNDARIES ON ALL THE LANDS
AND SEAS. HE SEES NO BLACK SKIN. NEITHER YELLOW. NOR
WHITE. NOT ANY BROWN. HE CONSIDERS NO RACIAL DIVIDES. HE
SEES NOT RICH MAN’S GOLD, NEITHER POOR MAN’S PENNIES IN
THEIR HANDS. HE SEES NOT THE SCEPTRES AND CROWNS ON THE
HEADS, NEITHER THE PLOWS AND SPEARS HELD BY THE ARMS.

10
NONE IN ALL THESE THAT HE CREATED IN HIS IMAGE, IN HIS
LIKENESS. HE LOOKS INTO THEIR HEARTS!

ULTIMATELY, THE SONS OF MAN, BORN OF WOMAN, WERE MADE TO


BECOME THE CHILDREN OF GOD, THEY WERE MADE TO INHERIT,
AND TO TAKE POSSESSION, OF ALL THE CREATED WORLDS, AND
THEREAFTER, BY THE GRACE AND WILL OF GOD, ESTABLISH
PEACE, AND SPREAD THE INFINITE BLESSINGS OF HAPPINESS AND
JOY FOREVERMORE IN ALL OF THEM! BEGINNING WITH THE NEW
WORLD SOON TO COME. SEE! IT IS JUST ACROSS THE NOT DISTANT
HORIZON. THERE, LOOK, IT IS JUST AROUND THE BEND!

SO AMAZING, INDEED! FAR BEYOND AND SO WAY ABOVE ALL THAT


THE CREATIVE IMAGINATIONS OF SCIENCE FICTION WRITERS
COULD POSSIBLY VISUALIZE. BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS, IN
INFINITY NO FUTURIST COULD EVEN BEGIN TO CONCEIVE: THE
GLORY AND WONDER OF THE WORLD TO COME!

NO REVERED MYSTICS OF THE ORIENT, OF PROFOUNDEST


DISCERNING, WOULD CONDESCEND TO EVER GLIMPSE INTO
THESE EVERLASTING PROMISES AND VERITIES AS THE TRUE
REALITY. NO PHILOSOPHERS OF THE WEST, OF MOST RESPECTED
REPUTE AND KEENEST INTELLECT, COULD RATIONALIZE THESE
UNDENIABLE ABSOLUTES. NO WORLD RENOWNED SCIENTIST OF
SHARPEST ACUITY IN EVERY AGE COULD MEASURE NEITHER
QUANTIFY, LET ALONE QUALIFY: THE AWESOME MARVELS OF THE
MIND AND WISDOM OF GOD, HIS EVERLASTING MERCY, AND HOW,
BY HIS WORD AND COMMAND, THE WHOLE UNIVERSE CAME TO BE.

THESE PIERCING INVISIBLE PRINCIPLES AND INVIOLABLE EDICTS,


THESE DECREES AND EXPRESSIONS OF DIVINE WILL DRAWN FROM
THE HOLY WRIT SET INTO THESE WORDS AND SPOKEN TO YOU ARE
SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE.

THESE ARE SENT FOR YOU AND TO YOU. THEY SHALL NOT RETURN
TO THE DIVINE AND HOLY ONE THAT SENT THEM EMPTY, NEITHER
VOID. THE ORDAINED PURPOSE FOR WHICH THEY WERE SENT WILL
BE FULFILLED. THIS IS THE INVIOLATE WILL OF GOD.

FINALLY, THE MEANING OF MEANING, WHICH ANSWER HAS BEEN


SOUGHT FOR AGES, CAN NOW BE UNDERSTOOD. THIS, NO WALKING

11
AVATAR BEFORE, TODAY, AND HEREAFTER EVER DID, AS CRYSTAL
CLEAR, EVER LOGICALLY EXPLAIN, OR COULD, CONFIDENTLY,
TRUTHFULLY PROCLAIM. NO SCHOLAR OF DEEPEST RESEARCH
COULD THE GLORIOUS TRUTH EVER FOUND. NO HISTORIAN OF THE
PROFOUNDEST BREADTH AND DEPTH COULD EVER FULLY
UNDERSTAND AND TO ORDINARY LAYMAN EXPOUND, LEAST OF
ALL: WHY HISTORY KEEPS REPEATING ITSELF: THE SHOCKING
TRUE STORY OF HOW THE FAMILY OF MAN TURNED BACK AND
DEPARTED FROM THE PRESENCE OF GOD FROM THE BEGINNING
AND WENT THEIR WAY. MAN’S PROUD WAY. MAN’S DEFIANT
DUALIZED THOUGHTS FROM DUALIZED MINDS. MAN’S FLAWED,
STUBBORN WILL. MAN’S VAIN WORKS. ALL UNDER THE SWAY OF
SATAN THE DEVIL, FOR SIX THOUSAND YEARS. IN ALL ITS
ENTIRETY. THAT IT MUST NOW COME TO AN END. TOTALLY
UPROOTED. FULLY BURNED UP. AND THE 1,000 YEARS OF GLORIOUS
CIVILIZATION UNDER THE ETERNAL CREATOR GOD AND HIS
KINGDOM MUST SOON BEGIN!

THE HIGHEST HEIGHTS IN THE ENTIRE COSMOS TAUGHT BY THE


MOST ACCOMPLISHED YOGI, THE ENLIGHTENED GURU, THE
REVERED MASTER, THE HONORED EARTHLY PATRIARCHS OF ALL
RELIGIOUS FAITHS, THE FOREMOST NEW AGE UTOPIAN DREAMERS.
THE WORSHIPPED SHAMANS, HAVE THEIR LIMITED
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE MIND AND SPIRIT ROVING AND
REVOLVING IN THE MYSTICAL AND SECULAR REALM AND FAINT
LIGHT OF THE SURROUNDING CREATED EXISTING COSMOS. ALL OF
THESE WHO HAVE LED MANKIND FOR SIX THOUSAND YEARS SEE
THE COLLECTIVE RESULT. THE FINAL BOTTOMLINE. THE
REPEATING CYCLES OF THE RISE AND FALL OF CIVILIZATIONS
WITHOUT FAIL. YOU SEE IT YOURSELF. BLESSED ARE YOU, FOR ALL
OF THESE HAVE LONGED TO KNOW AND SEE WHAT YOU NOW READ
AND HOLD IN YOUR HANDS, AND COULD NOT, AND HAVE NOT!

FOR THESE ARE DELIVERED FROM ABOVE BEYOND THE DEFINED


BORDERS OF THE CREATED UNIVERSE. NOW REVEALED, AND MADE
KNOWN FROM THE DIVINE DIMENSION OF UNAPPROACHABLE
LIGHT WHERE THE EVERLASTING GOD DWELLS.

NOW ALL THESE TERRESTRIAL HIGH THINGS MUST CEDE AND


YIELD TO THE EVERLASTING GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD

12
WHICH UNVEILS THE FULL PANOPLY OF THE DEEP THINGS OF GOD
AND THE
GLORIOUS HEAVENLY TRUTH THAT SETS MAN FREE. FREE FROM
SPIRITUAL CAPTIVITY. LIBERATED FROM SPIRITUAL BONDAGE BY
THE WICKED ONE, “THE GREAT DRAGON…THAT OLD SERPENT,
CALLED THE DEVIL, AND SATAN, WHICH DECEIVETH THE WHOLE
WORLD,” (REV. 12:9, 10; 20:3, 10).

READ THIS THEN. SKIM IT NOT. IT COMES IN ONE PART.

REREAD IT. SLOWLY, IF YOU WILL. AT YOUR OWN PACE.

FOCUS FOR A TIME. ONE PART AT A TIME.

MEDITATE ON THESE IN YOUR MORNINGS.

CONTEMPLATE ON IT AT NOON.

DWELL UPON THESE IN THE EVENTIDES.

THEN LINK THEM UP FOR THEY FIT PERFECTLY WELL.

THEN YOU WILL SEE THE WONDERFUL WHOLE.

THERE IS NO TIME LIMITATION.

THERE IS NO ONE TO PUSH YOU ON.

AND DO PRAY. THE ANCIENT PROPHET DANIEL, ERSTWHILE


PRESIDENT OF ALL THE GOVERNORS OF THE KINGDOM OF
BABYLON, UNDER KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR, OF THE GREATEST
EMPIRE IN HISTORY, PRAYED THREE TIMES A DAY. IT WAS THE
KEY TO HIS AWESOME SUCCESS. YOU, ALSO, COULD.

NOW IT IS IN YOUR HANDS. IT IS YOURS. CHERISH IT AS UNTO A


TREASURE PRICELESS BEYOND COUNTING. FOR NOW, THE TRUE
RICHES AND THE SECRET OF IMMORTALITY IS IN YOUR HANDS, IT
HAS ARRIVED IN YOUR LIFE. AT LAST! NOW SEIZE IT. NEVER,
NEVER, NEVER LET IT GO!

13
THE GIVER OF LIFE AND LIGHT SENDS THIS DIVINE BEAM. THIS
SACRED FIRE. THIS HOLY TORCH. TO ENTER YOUR MIND'S EYE.
INTO YOUR INNERMOST BEING. INTO THE WHOLE FABRIC OF YOU, A
LIVING SOUL. FOR YOUR INEVITABLE UNDERSTANDING. AT YOUR
OWN PACE. ONLY BETWEEN YOU AND HiM. IS THIS NOT
WONDERFUL?

WHEN THE TIME AND MOMENT OF YOUR ILLUMINATION COMES,


YOU WOULD KNOW. FOR THE TOTAL BRIGHTNESS IN YOUR
SPLENDID VISION OF LIFE AND THE SPIRIT MAGNIFIES AND
EXPANDS BEYOND MEASURE. FOR NOW IN THIS TIME IT WILL FILL
YOU. YOUR SPIRITUAL VESTMENTS ARE NOW IN YOUR HANDS.
YIELD. WEAR IT INSIDE OF YOU. PUT IT ON OUTSIDE OF YOU! YOUR
SPIRITUALLY DEAD STATE QUICKENS AT THAT MOMENT WITH
CELESTIAL POWER THE LIKE OF WHICH YOU HAVE NEVER KNOWN.

MAY YOU BE TRULY BLESSED MORE AND MORE, AS YOU ALREADY


ARE.

Preface: Sacred Golden Scroll Series LXVIII: ‘’WHY ALL THE
HUMAN SUFFERING AROUND US?’’

PREFACE
Golden Scroll Series LXVIII
Listen, World of Mortals…
GOD SPEAKS!

WHY ALL THE HUMAN


SUFFERING AROUND US?

HOW time flies! People sigh. Human beings, flesh and blood,
born of woman, remain the same. Same as the very day and
moment the first human being was created.

In one generation, our generation, an illusion


illusion of high-
high-speed, even
superspeed, seems to be happening.

The age of the horse and buggy is no more, and yet people pine
and yearn for that bygone era. Life was slower. Or was it an
illusion too. Life was laidback in the rural areas. There was
excitement
excitem ent and life it seemed in the urban areas, or the cities of
every generation and age. More so in our day and time. The
computer information age.

15
And people all the time yearn with nostalgia about the good old
days!

The books on contemporary history speak


speak of ages. The age of
th
darkness in the middle ages. The 15 Century. The age of reason.
The age of enlightenment. The industrial age. The modern age.
The atomic age. The space age. The computer age. The
electronic age.

All of these happened in the


the last 600 years. How swift events and
ages have come. And now intermingle and interplay with one
another.

Has there ever been a time like this in mankind’s 6000 years of
recorded history?

life
What has happened to the bedrock on which the foundation of li fe
on earth was founded?

Where has all the premier parts that comprised that bedrock gone?

What has happened to the family?

Yes, the FAMILY. The very anchor of all human civilization?

What has happened to love for God? For reverence. For worship.
F or honor. And praise towards the very Maker and Creator of
every human being. What has happened to leaning on and
depending on the source of all strength and good health? Of
success on every human endeavor and work? What has happened
to prayer?

16
What has
has happened to love of neighbor? Of fellowmen? Of the
entire humanity? What has happened to the vision of being one
together with the human family inhabiting one same planet earth?

What has happened to harmony with one another? To kindness?


To politeness.
politeness. To civility? To simple courtesies and thankfulness?
To morning salutations and written thank you notes? What has
happened to appreciation? Where has gratitude and simple words
of thanks gone?

What has happened to symbiosis? To give and take – the very


axiom that governs biology and nature? Of man with fellowmen?
Where has gentleness and tenderness gone? Where has live and let
live hidden into?

Remember:
We remain fundamentally the same. In need of food. And shelter.
Of clothing. Of space and time to truly be alive and live and
breathe in the open air.

The illusion of high speed and ever increasing speed surround us.
And we are left behind by technology, so to speak.

And in the midst of these cacophonies of sound and bytes, we hear


loud,
loud , insistent voices, noises, and read printed words that
seemingly state with knowingness and believability:

• THERE ARE NO ABSOLUTES


ABSOLUTES .
• EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE
RELATIV E.
• G OD DOES NOT EXIST.
17
• WE DO NOT KNOW AND ARE ARE MIGHTY PROUD WE DO
NOT.
• MARRIAGE IS PASSE’.
• G EORGE CAN
CAN LOVE AND MARRY PETER. ROSEMARY
COULD MARRY M ARGARET.
• THIS LIFE IS ALL THAT THERE IS. WHEN IT IS OVER,
WHY, IT IS FINISHED FOREVER
FOREVER. SO ENJOY! DRINK .
EAT. LIVE. AND BE MERRY. FOR THERE IS NO
TOMORROW.
• SO WHAT? WHAT’S GOOD ENOUGH FOR MY
G RANDFATHER
RANDFATHER IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!
• M AN? HE IS AN ANIMAL DESCENDED
DESCENDED FROM THE
MONKEY! SPRANG FROM THE A PE.

Ask those who had ascended Mount Everest after it was all over,
were they more immortal afterwards?

Ask the astronauts who finally stepped on the moon and


and got back.
Were they still human when it was done?

Ask those who became ex-


ex-president this. Ex-
Ex-prime minister that.
Chairman this. Chief executive officer that. After having walked
n the corridors of power for the appointed years of their peak and
prime, have they become divine and demigods after?

Ask those whose pockets and bank accounts were lined with
innumerable dollar notes and 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 figures and rising.
Were they better than most? Were they more healthy and

18
impervious to common
common cold? How many heart by-
by -pass have they
had?

Ask those whose private libraries and dugouts are lined with
multiple trophies galore. Were they now immortals?

Ask those who walk the streets of London every so many weeks or
months with their shining medals
medals they have been awarded for their
deeds of valor in wars gone by when the British Empire was at its
zenith. Were they heroes in their own eyes really? Or have they
grown weary and really tired of it all?

Ask the celebrities and men of fame, fortune,


fortune, and distinction after
they sit by themselves when it was all over. Have these idols and
icons found true happiness after so many divorces and broken
families left tattered behind? Were they on drugs and booze after
all?

Ask all the men and women who have


have done this, done that, went
there, and gone up, and gone down, ask them when it was all over
and they are by themselves. Retired, worn and used, and feeling
the onset of mortality with arthritis and faulty heartbeats. Ask
them how it was and how it might
might have been and how it is now?

Ask those who spoke the greatest oration, most eloquent, most
applauded speech, which men so soon forgot in the rush of other
new men on the ascendant, did they remain on the pedestal after
30 to 1 hour moments of ephemeral
ephemeral fame?

Ask those who wrote the most profound books it seemed then and
were later placed in the dustbins or in some insignificant corner in

19
libraries and bookshelves. Do they have doubts of what they have
written?

‘’Vanity of vanities’’, wrote and lamented


lame nted the preacher of the book
of Ecclesiastes, he who was dubbed the wisest of all men. ‘’All is
vanity’’, (Ecclesiastes, Chapters 1,2,3).

Are there absolutes? Absolute truth?

Of course, there are. And aplenty, and immense. And because


they are absolute
absolute truths and self-
self-evident, they never vanish. They
do not change. It is in man’s mind that they seemed to have
vanished, replaced by misconceptions of their confused minds and
perception of things as to what they are.

Are there eternal values?

Of course,
course, there are, and they are multitude. It is the twisted
reasoning and polluted minds and bodies of men and women that
they seemed to be tarnished or do not exist, but are relative. Or
passé. Or out of date. Out of fashion. Non-
Non-modern, irrelevant in in
this day and age. These misguided, blinded ones who say and
think and do these: as sure as the sun rises in the east and sets in
the west, they are about to be passé into the garbage heap of
history.

They are dead. And long dead who say there is no God.
God. Or God
is dead. And the eternal Creator God of the whole vast universe
and who is present forever, laughs at all these mortals whose
fleeting moments on earth are but the brief trajectory of a falling
star. And have since long returned to the dust from
from where they
came from.
20
Are there eternal verities?

Of course, there are. And they are the ones that really matter.
The true reality. The ones that endure thru every passing tide of
man-
man-invented theories and counterfeit verities. They are true
reality.
reality. When all the self-
self-created illusions and delusions of self-
self-
importance and grandeur in men’s hearts are finished and gone,
perished into the nothingness of nothing from where they sprung.

This Golden Scroll Series LXVIII ® proclaims these absolute truths.


truths.
It reiterates these eternal values. For they are spoken from, and by,
the very Creator of the Universe and all that therein is. They are
spoken from the lips of the very maker of mortals, born of woman.
The God Eternal who created them in His image, image, in His likeness.
And He never changed His original purpose in creating the human
race. His absolute goal that these mortals may one day inherit the
universe He created. His eternal design that these human beings
will be imbued with everlasting righteousness
righteousness for remaining
faithful to the everlasting values of goodness and beauty and truth
in their whole lives. For believing the everlasting Gospel that
proclaims that their purpose for being here on earth is to the end
that they build the Holy Righteous Character that will bring them
the gift of salvation from the everlasting God, and will qualify
them to receive their Everlasting Crown in the Kingdom of God,
with Eternal Life forever and ever.

Listen, World of Mortals . . . God Speaks! SACRED GOLDEN
SCROLL SERIES LXVIII : WHY ALL THE HUMAN SUFFERING
AROUND US?

Sacred Golden Scroll Series LXVIII

Listen,
World of Mortals…
GOD Speaks!

WHY ALL THE


HUMAN
SUFFERING
AROUND US?
Genesis 3:16-
3:16-19

''To the woman He said:


I will greatly multiply your sorrow
23
and your conception: In pain
you shall bring forth children:

Your desire shall be for your husband,


And he shall rule over you.

Then to Adam He said,


''Because you have heeded the voice
of your wife, and have eaten
from the tree of which I commanded you,
saying, 'You shall not eat of it';

Cursed is the ground for your sake;


In toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life.

Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth


for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field.

In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread

Till you return to the ground,

For out of it you were taken; For dust you are,


and to dust you shall return.''

All reference Scriptures are from the King James Version (KJV), unless otherwise indicated.

24
Is God retired somewhere in Heaven and has
forgotten us after He has created us?

If God exists, why did He let little Tommy die?

If God is God, why do we have wars and


endless wars?

Is there deliverance from all the suffering?

THE whole planet Is groaning and aching because of the pain


and the suffering of the inhabitants of the Earth!

There is not a single second that passes by in every single day that
the sun rises and the sun sets that there is no cry of agony ceasing nor
pausing from the lips and souls of human beings everywhere.

UNIVERSAL SUFFERING IS REAL!

But why all the human suffering going on? Is not God all merciful?
All kind? All seeing? And is He not the Creator of all of us? And can
He not stop all the suffering? What is the answer to all of this?

''Please, will somebody, please


someone somewhere,
lend an ear and give us the
answer!''

Everyday, somebody somewhere has reached the end of his or her

25
rope, and chose to kill himself or herself. Somebody somewhere
someone could no longer bear the suffering. They just have to give up.
''What's the use?'' They snap and break. Then they jump from a
bridge to die. Or take a gun and shot themselves and die. Or rush
before an onrushing train and die. Or drink arsenic or cyanide. Or get
a rope and hang themselves to death. Or in our day and time even ask
permission for doctor-assisted suicide.

More and more each day, the list grows longer.


And the more people hear about them or read about them, the copycat
in human nature seems to say: ''There is the solution.'' And more
follow. Persons taking their own lives as the ultimate and final
solution.

Or many others survive in the hope of a better day. But the better
day never comes. It is said, that man are victims of their circumstances
and there they are, in the hundreds of millions in every corner of the
world: men and women living lives of quiet desperation!

WHO IS TO BLAME
FOR ALL
THIS SUFFERING?

It is in the nature of man to blame somebody or someone for the


pain and the suffering that he goes through. The finger never points to
himself but every time they point a finger, the other four fingers point
back to the pointer. It is all very sad.

We commiserate and emphasize with every person that are in the


throes, and depths of unspeakable suffering. There is the famous
English poet, John Donne, who wrote, ''Every man's death diminishes

26
me. For I am involved in mankind. Do not ask for whom the bell
tolls, it tolls for thee!'' How very true. And we truly share with the rest
of mankind that pain and grief. The mourning. The utter, all
consuming sadness. For we truly are involved in mankind. As we are a
part of the Family of Man.

But should we blame anyone? Is finding a scapegoat the answer?


It would be best to find the truth. To know the truth. To understand
the truth, instead. For then, the truth shall set us free.

Free to rise into a day of hope. To rekindle the flickering hope that
lies eternal, as they say, in the human breast. For it is good to have
hope of a better tomorrow. Then man can move on. To go on living.
And have a reason to live thereby.

YES, THERE IS A REASON


FOR ALL HUMAN
SUFFERING!

Yes, Virginia, God cares. Yes, He is not asleep. And has not
forgotten us. Yes, He is merciful. Yes, He is a kind and loving GOD
who created us.
And, yes, the kind, merciful, loving Creator God waits on us. For
we, His Creation, have forgotten Him. Instead of Him forgetting us.

We do, most of the time, when we are not suffering, forget Him.
When we do our own thing and go our own way, we do put God off
our minds. Or the knowledge about God. We would rather go our
own way and do our best to do things according to our will.

We would like to deny this. And yet, it is the truth.

27
Moreover, human suffering is brought upon us by ourselves. And
we don't know it. Or do we?

The principles of living that would make us live a life of blessedness


and peace, are known to many of us. But we would rather discover
how to live by trial and error instead of living by revealed principles of
life that are already known to us. We like searching and being
challenged. It excites us.

Truly it shall be most shocking to realize this. But in order to help


the rest of suffering mankind, we must search ourselves. For then we
are on the right path to finding the true answers.

It is true that we are all victims of our circumstances. Or by the


around. Or when we are engulfed by the pressures of the around, then
it brings us suffering. It is also when we cave in to the demands of the
around that we bring suffering upon ourselves.

Among the thousand and one reasons that cause us suffering, one
reason stands foremost: we bring suffering upon ourselves. We blame
no one. We must blame nobody. But we must not also keep blaming
ourselves, consumed in self-guilt.

Instead we must know the meaning of repentance. Not regret.


Repentance is Godly grief. A recognition of the wretched wrongs that
we have committed. And an acknowledgement before our Creator that
we have done so. And thereafter to ask for our Creator's forgiveness.
To invoke the God of mercy for grace and help. For succor. And
believe that He will help. If we do not believe, and instead accuse God,
then we bring the punishment and penalty of our own wrong upon
ourselves and we suffer heavily and often drown in its consequences.
28
BUT WHY DID GOD
LET LITTLE TOMMY DIE?

Little Tommy was a very lovely little boy. Be-dimpled. Full of


laughter and full of life. He is the apple not only of his father's eye but
his mother's and brother's and sister's, and just about everyone else.
He looked every bit and every inch a bright and young chap. And one
day he ran out of his yard to run after a ball. He ran right into a
passing car. Yes, little Tommy was dead. And everybody asked that
question in every corner and mind and heart, in their deepest moments
of grief. They asked ''Oh, God, why did you let little Tommy die?''
What's the answer? To this incredibly pain-encumbered question
through all the thousands of years that men have been here on the
earth. Where was God when little Tommy was run over by the car?

First, we must understand what God Himself had said. In the Book
of Ecclesiastes 9:11, it is said that, ''time and chance happen to all.'' It
is important to understand that there are laws set in motion that
operate in nature and this is one of them.

And what therefore must parents do?

They must always keep an eye on their little Tommys'. For the little
babies, the little boy's and girls are restless and full of energy. And
every precaution must be taken by parents to see to it that their eyes are
always on little Tommy. It is their responsibility to have a guarded eye
all the time during their waking hours. For babies and children do not
know the meaning of risk and chance. And when, therefore, these
things happen, even as they are caused by a thousand and many other
ways which may well have been, then it is time to understand that first
of all parents are responsible for their children.

29
The adults around the little boys and girls are responsible. And
when, in spite of all precautions, they die in any accident or in any
sickness, it is to open the eyes of adults that they have a responsibility in
such a loss.

Yes, human beings are mortal and flesh and blood and at any
moment and time they can die. They can be in an accident for time
and chance happeneth to them all. And where does God stand in all of
this? Parents must understand that the Creator God holds the parents
as stewards of His heritage of little children. He would require that
parents should be praying for the protection and blessing of the
children by God and His angels.

In certain cases parents do not deserve their children. Sometimes in


these cases, there are crocodile tears shed when children die. And God
who gives life, and who takes it away, would allow such a thing to
happen. If indeed the parents suffer in pain for the death of little
Tommy, and if they learn a lesson then well and good. As for poor
little Tommy, God the Almighty has taken his spirit back with Him
and his little body - the living soul that was, returns to the earth. Back
to the dust from where it came from. To rest and to sleep until the
second resurrection where he will be raised up in a new mortal body
and live up to one hundred years old in a better environment.

Read Isaiah 65:20, (NKJV):

''No more shall an infant from there live but a few days,
Nor an old man who has not fulfilled his days,
For the child shall die one hundred years old,
But the sinner being one hundred years old shall be accursed.''
There in that day,
day , he will be under constant protection and in
absolute safety to grow up in character in a world of perfect peace.
30
We read further in the Book of Isaiah 65:21-
65:21-23, (NKJV):

''They shall build houses and inhabit them;


They shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
They shall not build and another inhabit:
They shall not plant and another eat;
For as the days of a tree, so shall be the days of my people,
And my elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
They shall not labor in vain,
vain,
Nor bring forth children for trouble;
For they shall be descendants of the blessed of the
Lord,
And their offspring with them.''

WHY ALL THE WARS?


IS GOD ASLEEP?

The tragedy of war has blighted the human race since time
immemorial. Since records were kept six thousand years ago, human
beings had been at war. We will never in this life be able to really
count the numbers of the war dead. Every generation for thousands of
years have seen war and suffering. The culture of martial conflict is
ingrained and steeped in human history. Heroism in war is valued and
adored by the around. By the very people who get involved with them.
It is only the mothers who brought those men and women into this
world who seem to really suffer. The call-to-arms has been the
standard banner and trumpet heard thru endless hundreds of years.
Men in uniform had been glorified with medals of valour when they
will have gone to war. And did come back having snuffed out more
lives of the enemy than most. And the enemy is the one on the other
31
side and the other side who do the same things for their own warriors.
War has become the culture of man!

And has God closed His eyes on this? Why does He not stop
war? Does He not understand that there would be so much death?
That there will be so much loss? That there will be so much
suffering? Why does not God stop the wars? Yes, why did not
God stop the wars? Why does not God prevent the wars?

Long, long ago, when God created man, He gave our first parents
the truth of His Way of life. Most everybody know the story. The first
couple, Adam and Eve, disobeyed their Creator God. They rejected
God's Way. They decided to try it their own way. They decided to
experiment in trial and error. For it seemed to be so good and
challenging to do so. It seemed to be so clever to find their way in the
around. It seemed to be so good to depend on their natural ability to
find solutions to human needs and human problems. In short and in
sum, they turned away from God's Way. And they went their own
way. And their way ended up to be Satan's way. Satan the devil, the
adversary. The wicked one has his twisted way.

They were thrown out of the Garden of Eden and the lingering
backlash of their disobedience produced a duality in their minds and
bodies.
They began to have both evil and good. They had allowed the
Satanic spirit to get into their minds. Their bodies produced two kinds
of children. One was evil, and one was good. Cain was the wicked
one. Abel was the opposite, the good one. The evil spirit went to war
against the spirit of good. Yes, the author of war possessed Cain and
went to war against his own brother and murdered him. And why did
God not stop the murder? This is the same question that Adam and
Eve would have asked their Creator. What is the answer to this
32
puzzle?

MAN WAS CREATED


A FREE MORAL AGENT

In contrast to the creation by God of the angels who were created


immortal spirits with extraordinary strength, (Psalms 104:4; 103:20),
man was created mortal with a free will and choice.

Why? Because God has a higher purpose for man than He has for
the angels; after men became His children. But before they can become
His children, they must develop Godly character thru a lifetime of
making the right choices and decisions to obey or disobey God of their
own free will. In that way, at the end of their appointed time, they
would eventually qualify for the rewards that await those who will be
given the gift of salvation and everlasting life. And they will have
proven that they will keep obeying God the Father through all eternity!

The angels were not given this final destiny given to man, (Ps. 8:5;
He.1:4; 2:6,7). So, one of them, the great cherub, the archangel
Lucifer, rebelled against God, And went to war against his Creator.
Even as he was perfect in wisdom, knowledge and beauty, he did not
have the perfect spiritual character required. He allowed vanity to enter
his mind and in that war of rebellion, he became a twisted immortal
fallen angelic being. He took one third of the angels of heaven with
him in a spirit of rebellion and war. Their character became twisted.
The leader of the devils was there in the Garden of Eden and proceeded
to tempt Eve. The mother of all mankind. Why did God allow that
thing to happen? Did He not know what was going on? Lucifer
now Satan, the devil, took his chances all the time. He knows that he
could only go as far as God allows. He never stops trying.

33
ONLY AS FAR AS GOD ALLOWS

God Almighty allows Satan to tempt His created human beings.


And in Eve and later in Adam, He allowed temptation to come. He
would see if Adam and Eve would make the right choices. But they did
not. Satan, the devil, believed that he had ruined God's purpose for
Adam and Eve and therefore he would also ruin God's purpose for
mankind. But God the Almighty always works thru the Big Picture.
In fact when He drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden for
their disobedience, paraphrasing Scriptures, He spoke to them thus:

''Go and do what you will, you and your children after you will have all
the six thousand years to do what you want because that is what you
wish. I have taught you when you walked with me in the Garden of
Eden that six days in a week, you can do all your labors, all your work,
but on the seventh day, you must rest, for that is my day for you to
worship Me. And remember that I, God, am your God, and you are
My son. Now that you have disobeyed Me and ate of the Tree of the
Knowledge of Good and Evil, your entire existence will exist with
experimenting with trial and error. With your knowledge and desire
for good and evil you will be divided in your mind with a duality in
your nature. You will live a long time and you will have to see that
pain, and the suffering, the misery and the horrors that will come about
because of your disobedience. And those that you will beget
throughout your lifetime. Go, and do as you will and only until such
time as you will truly repent will you draw close to Me again.''

Consequently, all generations after Adam and Eve down thru our
day and time lived in so much suffering because everyone turned away
from the will and way of God. And so it is not true that God is asleep.
What followed thereafter is that we all became spiritually dead. The
sins of mankind, of everyone of us, have created a wall between us and
34
God.

Listen to what the Prophet Isaiah 59:1-5 (NKJV) reveals:

''Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened,


That it cannot save;
Nor His ear heavy;
That it cannot hear.
But your iniquities have separated you from
your God;
And your sins have hidden His face from you,
So that He will not hear.
For your hands are defiled with blood,
And your fingers with iniquity;
Your lips have spoken lies,
Your tongue has muttered perversity.
No one calls for justice,
Nor does any plead for truth.
They trust in empty words and speak lies;
They conceive evil and bring forth iniquity.
They hatch
hatch vipers' eggs and weave the spider's
web;
He who eats of their eggs dies.
And from that which is crushed a viper breaks out.''

He continues further in chapter 64:7, (NKJV):

But we are all like an unclean thing,


And all our righteousness
righteousness are like filthy rags;
We all fade as a leaf,
And our iniquities, like the wind,
Have taken us away.
35
And there is no one who calls on Your name,
Who sits himself up to take hold of You;
For You have consumed us because
because of our iniquities.''

God says in Genesis 8:21:

''And the Lord smelled a soothing aroma.


Then the Lord said in His heart, ''I will never again curse the
ground for man's sake,
although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth;
nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.''
And God saw through the deepest recesses of our heart, Genesis
6:5:

''Then the Lord saw the wickedness of man was great in the earth,
and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was
was only evil
continually.''

Without exception, we all stand condemned before God. Because


of our sins we are all worthy of the punishment of death. Listen to
what the Apostle Paul discloses in the Book of Romans 3:10-18,
(NKJV).

As it is written:

''There is none righteous, no, not one;


There is none who understands;
There is none who seeks after God.
They have all turned aside;
They have together become unprofitable;
There is none who does good, no, not one.
Their throat is an open tomb;
36
With their tongues they have practiced deceit,''
''The poison of asps is under their lips,''
''Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness,''
''Their feet are swift to shed blood;
Destruction and misery are in their
their ways;
And the way of peace they have not known.''
''There is no fear of God before their eyes.''

No one, not anyone can ever hide from God nor anything from
Him. He gave us the Holy Scriptures as a mirror by which and thru
which we see ourselves as God sees us. The Book of Hebrews 4:12-13,
(NKJV), reveals this to us:

''For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than
any two-
two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and
spirit, and of joints and morrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts
and intents of the heart.

And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are
naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give
account.''

THE CREATOR GOD DETERMINES WHAT HE


DOES FOR US

Human beings are by nature stubborn. They aim for the best of
what they think is the best. And then they determine what they think
is the best approach to reach their goals and aims. They have
confidence in themselves. Most of us have been taught to have
confidence in ourselves. To stand on our own two feet, To
proverbially, ''paddle our own canoe.'' We tell others to mind their
own business so they would not meddle in ours. This is all fine and
37
looking good. However, the consequences of these very human
approaches and decisions result in a lot of suffering. Of misery. Of
terrible unhappiness.
What is wrong in this? What is missing? It is not wrong to have
self-confidence, per se. Because, it builds up convictions in the person
which is good. What is missing is that in these cases, the individual
does not look to base his self-confidence on true strong foundations.
What is really important and true is that men should have self-
confidence because he has true confidence and faith in his Creator
God. That he believes in Him to help him and assist him. To guide
him and to be with him all the days of his life. And this can only come
if man has learned how to communicate with his Creator. That way of
communication is heartfelt, believing prayer. The Creator God honors
believing faith. He honors believing prayer. He honors those who
honor Him. Psalms 91:15, (NKJV) reveals to us:

''He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;


I will be with him in trouble;

I will deliver him and honor him.''


him.''

''Them that honor me, I will honor . . . (Isa. 2:30).

This is proof that the creator God has not departed from man,
for He is the Creator who cares for His Creation. The Scriptures
we have gone through has shown us that it is man who has
departed
departed away from God. Further and farther away. He has
separated himself from his only true source of sustenance, and true
life-
life-giving support. All other else are man-
man- made props. Fallible.
Fragile. All of them are like broken cisterns of water and weak
reeds. Jeremiah 2:13, (NKJV) tells us:

38
''For my people have committed two evils:
They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters,
And hewn themselves cisterns - broken cisterns that can hold no
water.''

Moreover, mankind has created hand-made idols from wood,


brass, silver or even gold. Out of these images he fabricated and gods
to which he bows down to worship and attribute miraculous,
supernatural powers to help him. These abominations stink in God's
eyes and nostrils.

Especially when man kneels before these idols that he made with his
own hands. And then he utters earnest prayers before these utterly
non-existent dead gods. And then mankind looks for beneficial results.
Then suffering comes! And then he blames God! It is so utterly
pathetic!

Down through the ages, humanity have continually, if not


continuously, grieved his merciful Creator God. But God would not
be mocked forever. Even as He is the patient God of impatient man.
He would not allow mankind to blaspheme Him with brazen
impunity's always.

And so even as man sows the wind and reaps the whirlwind, He
would allow unusual suffering to visit sinning mankind from time to
time. To jolt him, To wake him up. To warn him.

He even sent His Prophets and His servants to speak and warn the
world. And they persecuted them. Hounded them. And even killed
them.

And yet God in His mercy declares to us that He does not have
39
pleasure in the death of the wicked. Read Ezekiel 33:11, (NKJV).

''Say to them: 'As I live,' says the Lord God, 'I have no pleasure
in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way
and live.
Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why should you die, O
house of Isreal?''

In the Scriptures we can see thru the prophecies, that He had looked
into the future and saw, the evil deeds of humanity kick back at Him
by terrible wars. Earthquakes. Famines. Pestilences. Dread diseases.
Religious deceptions. Near total human annihilation of all flesh.
(Matthew 24:22)!

And we see that in His mercy He will soon send His Son Jesus
Christ to intervene. And save alive those who know Him.

Yes, truly God is merciful. For He made a way in His wisdom to allow
individuals to find a way of deliverance from all the terrible human
sufferings. Sufferings that man has unwittingly, or wittingly, inflicted,
and will inflict and bring upon himself.

What did God do? What did He determine to perform for the
sake of mankind? What, in His Divine Wisdom, can can we see that
we could believe He did by which we could find a way to be saved
from all of this suffering?

THE PROMISE OF SALVATION


BY THE CREATOR GOD

Through all this terrifying spiritual darkness that grips the frail
40
human heart with fear, the heavenly Father has made a promise. He
revealed through the book of John 3:16, (NKJV):

''For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten
Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have
everlasting life.''

That is the great and wonderful promise from God the Father that is
available to every single individual who ever lives on planet Earth.

But listen to what He declared. It is important to understand:

''For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the
world,
wo rld, but that the world through Him might be saved.

He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not


believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name
of the only begotten Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that the Light has come into the world,
men love darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil.

For everyone practicing evil hates the Light and does not come to the
Light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

But he who does the truth, comes to the light, that his deeds may be
clearly seen that they have been done in God.''

It is clear from the above that help from God is truly made possible
for the individual person. This is God's Will and Way. And suffering,
human suffering, must continue to be the lot and consequence of those
who are in continued denial and disobedience of the True Way of Life.
41
Of the True Will of God. Of the True and Risen Saviour Jesus Christ
who was crucified. Who died. Whose blood was shed to pay for the
sins of all men. To redeem humanity from the penalty of death. And,
ultimately, denial of the true Creator God. Of the heavenly Father.
The Supreme God. The Architect. The Supreme Judge. The
Lawgiver. The Ancient of Days.

Yes, individual help and salvation is available to all who would


believe as God said they must do. Listen! Listen to what the Risen
Savior Jesus Christ, the coming Messiah, says to each and everyone who
are in abject suffering, in Matthew 11:27-30, (NKJV):

''All things have been delivered


delivered to Me by My Father, and no one
knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the
Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal
Him.

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle and
lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.''

And here and now, we see. And here and now, our Merciful God
reveal to us that there is a way that He has made deliverance possible.

And yet, even in this, He would only make it available to the


individual person who would truly seek God. With all his heart, and
mind. With all his might and with all his being.

42
God in His mercy would let His Divine Light shine through the
darkened human mind and heart. He would let the seed of faith reach
the human heart. For true faith does not come from man. It can only
come from Christ. The faith of Christ in you. Galations 2:16,
(NKJV).

''knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law but
by faith in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by faith in
Christ, and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the
law no flesh shall be justified.''

This is further made more clear in Philippians 3:9, (NKJV).

''and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which


is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the
righteousness which is from God by faith;''

This seed of true faith is not human. It does not come from us. It
springs from God Himself.

AND WHAT IS FAITH?

Hebrews 11:1, (NKJV) enlightens us:

''Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of


things not seen.''

The Amplified Bible helps to make it more


more clear:

''NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title


deed) of the things (we) hope for, being the proof of the things
(we) do not see and the conviction of their reality (faith perceiving
43
as real fact what is not revealed to the senses).''
senses).''

The Moffatt translation likewise helps to shed more clarification:

''Now faith means that we are confident of what we hope for,


convinced of what we do not see. It was for this that men of old
won their record.

It is by faith we understand
understand that the world was fashioned by the
Word of God, and thus the visible was made out of the invisible.''

The seed of true faith in Christ, not in man, grows in the individual.
Then spiritual strength grows. Spiritual blindness is healed. And then
human suffering begins to be truly understood by the believing
individual with a radiant spiritual perspective.

The believing person will begin to receive spiritual power to


overcome excruciating human suffering. For now the person knows
that he cannot by himself bear the weight of agonizing suffering. The
True Helper has made a promise that He is there to help. That help
comes from the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

The believing person now must hunger and thirst for the truths of
God. And where are and how can that hunger be filled? Where can
that spiritual thirst be quenched?

MAN, THE BELIEVER, MUST TURN


TO THE TRUE SPIRITUAL WELLSPRING
OF LIFE

Now listen to what Jesus Christ reveals to you as He speaks in

44
Matthew 4:4, (NKJV).

''But He answered and said, ''It is written, 'Man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of
God'.''

The Holy Scriptures is the Word of God. In them, are the promises
of God. The men who must seek God must be nourished by this
eternal wellspring of true spiritual food. There is no other source. Let
us listen to Jesus Christ, as He tells us in the Book of John 6:32-33,
(NKJV):

''Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you bread
from heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.
For the Bread of God is He who comes down from Heaven and
gives life to the world.''

''. . . I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never


hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.''

He continues in verse 47-51:

''Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me


has everlasting life.
I am the bread of life.

Your father ate the manna in the wilderness, and are


d ead.

I am the living bread which comes down from heaven.heaven. If anyone


eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall
give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.''
45
For the quenching of spiritual thirst, from which all of us are in
dire need to fulfill, what did Jesus Christ assure?

Listen to Him speak in John 4:13, (NKJV):

''Jesus answered and said to her, 'Whosoever drinks of this water


will never thirst again,

But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will
never thirst, But the water
water that I shall give him will become in him
a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.''

Listen to His call to every suffering human being in John 7:37-38,


(NKJV):

''On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried
out, saying, ''If anyone thirst, let him come to Me and drink.

He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, our of his heart will
flow rivers of living water,''

No greater promise from no greater source for deliverance could


come to any man anywhere on Earth than this. Never at anytime, none
in all the history of the world. For Jesus Christ Himself is the very Son
of God. The same yesterday, today, and forever. For He is the same
spiritual ROCK who was with the nation of Israel in the wilderness. I
Corinthians 10:4, (NKJV) discloses:

''Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all


our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea,

46
all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, all ate
the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For
they drank of the spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock
was Christ.''

This incredible truth that Christ was the God of Israel in the Old
Testament has not been understood by most for this past two thousand
years. And yet there it is. Christ is Divine. As He is God, (John 1:1,2;
8:58; 1 Tim. 3:16; 2 Jn. v.7; He. 1:8,9). There you have His promise.
The very promises of God.

Suffering mankind, when are you going to


to learn? Oh, suffering
humanity, when are you going to return to your Creator and your
God? But you would not. And you would have to continue to suffer!

THE HOPE OF DELIVERANCE IS TO THE


INDIVIDUAL

Now you understand the cause of all human suffering. Now, you
see the Big Picture. Now, you know that nobody can answer neither
find the way out of the human dilemma of human suffering except by
your Savior and your Lord Jesus Christ even as He is your Redeemer
and your only hope.

As you carry on in your life, now you can remember that the ray of
Divine Light has come upon your mind by the very Word of God that
you have just read and received. By the Holy Scriptures. Did you say
that you did not know where to turn to? Now you know where to turn
to.

YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE!

47
Should you be laden with self-doubt because of the burdens of guilt
that bear down upon you, listen to what the unchanging God of Israel
who is your Risen Savior Jesus Christ clearly declares in Isaiah 1:16, 18-
20:

''Come
''Come now, and let us reason together, says the Lord, though
your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though
they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If you are willing
and obedient, you shall eat the

good of the land;''

16: ''Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; put away the evil
of your doings from before My eyes. Cease to do evil, learn to do
good; seek justice, rebuke the oppressor, defend the fatherless,
plead for the widow.''

Listen to the warning, however, if you do not:

''But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword;
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.''

The wellspring of everlasting life and deliverance from human


suffering is open to you. It is not going to be forced into, or upon you.
Of your own free will, by your own choice and decision, YOU WILL
HAVE TO MAKE THE FIRST STEP.

May the kind, merciful and loving God help you. Then as you do,
may God be with you. You are on your way to your true deliverance
and safety from all the human suffering around and about you.

48
YOUR ENTRY INTO A NEW DIMENSION OF
MEANINGFUL SUFFERING

Even so, do not and never entertain the illusion that all this
means that now you will live on a bed of roses in perpetual sunshine.

The world of human suffering is really the accursed suffering


because of sin.

It has been the same accursed suffering that our most ancient
forbears had to endure from the Garden of Eden until the Flood in
Noah's day. It is the same wretched suffering that engulfed the Earth
and the human race after the Flood because of the same wickedness and
sin that the human race had continued to commit against their Creator
God. It is this accursed suffering that degenerates. It is this wretched
suffering that makes man shrivel and shrink. It is this miserable
suffering that leads man to become barbarians in a dog-eat-dog society.
It is the unspeakable suffering that comes layer after layer, intersecting
and bisecting each other through the web of lives of generations of the
human race. It is this kind of suffering from which you will be
delivered from.

For now as you are delivered from it, you enter a new dimension of
life. And as you do, you will begin to see that SUFFERING IS STILL
THERE. Pain will still be there. Agony and excruciating pain are still
there. But what is this new dimension that we are talking about?

You will now enter into a new dimension of a new Way of Life. For
then you will have departed from the Satan instigated and designed,
wretched, wicked sinful way of life. And with it all the curses and
wretchedness unspeakable!

49
You will have entered into a life of True Faith and True Grace. You
will have entered, willingly, consciously, with all your heart and mind
into a new, True Way of Life.

IT IS GOD’S WAY OF LIFE

Now you must understand that you will enter into a relationship
with your GOD and your Saviour Jesus Christ.

And now you must understand that you will have to grow in grace
and in the knowledge of your Lord in this Way of Life. And in so
doing, you will begin to know how to share in His sufferings.

He was hated. He was persecuted. He was kicked. He was reviled.


They made Him drink vile liquid to quench His thirst while He was
dying on the cross. While He had lived in human flesh, the established
order had plotted to murder Him.

And yet all that He lived for and came for was to die for the sins of
sinful mankind. He was willing to become a slave or take the position
lower than a slave. He who in former glory sat with God the Father in
the Godhead. He willingly paid with His Divine Life to redeem us all
from eternal death by His blood.

''If they have persecuted Me,'' he warned His disciples, ''they


would also persecute you, for the servant is not greater than his
Lord.'' ''You will be hated by all nations for My name's sake,''
(John 15:20; Matthew 24:9).

And again, He admonished, ''he that believes Me, must take up


his cross and follow Me,'' (Mark 8:34).

50
Yes, anyone who would be delivered from the wretched accursed
human suffering of this world with God's help would know a new
dimension of human suffering!

''Blessed are you, when men shall revile you and persecute you
for My name's sake.'' Christ assured those who would follow
Him,’’ (Matthew 5:11).

Now that you will be following Jesus Christ, would you be ready to
suffer and to endure this new dimension of SUFFERING? Can you
rejoice in suffering for Christ?

For that is what your Savior said you must do in your suffering.
Yes, you must understand, even as you would live a life of grace in your
new relationship with Jesus Christ, you would, and must experience
and know suffering. STILL.

And for what? So that you will be perfected in the very character of
Christ.

Listen! The Book of Hebrews 2:9-10 reveals to us:

''But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels,
for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He,
by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.

For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by
whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the
captain of their salvation perfect through
sufferings.''

How about you? You might not be called upon to suffer and die
51
upon the cross. But you will certainly have your trials and tribulations.

Many of them.

And then what?

Listen to your LORD's assurance in Psalms 34:17-19, (NKJV):

''The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears, and delivers them
them
out of all their troubles.

The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and save
such as have a contrite spirit.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD


delivers him out of them all. He guards all his bones; not one of
of
them is broken.

Evil shall slay the wicked, and those who hate the righteous
shall be condemned.

The LORD redeems the soul of His servants, and none of those
who trust in Him shall be condemned.''

And know that you will also suffer strange trials.

Read 1 Peter 4:12, (NLJV):

''Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which


is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
but rejoice, inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ's sufferings;
that, when His glory shall be revealed, ye shall be glad also with
52
exceeding joy.''

However, now you can understand that you are not alone. Read 1
Peter 5:7, (NKJV) discloses:

''Casting all you care upon Him; for He careth for you.
Be sober, be vigilant;
vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a
roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour:

Whom resist stedfast in the faith, KNOWING THAT THE


SAME AFFLICTIONS ARE ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR
BRETHREN THAT ARE IN THE WORLD.''

And now, the real purpose of all your sufferings in your new way of
life, Again read, and understand in verse 10:

''But the GOD of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal
glory by Christ Jesus, after that you have suffered a while, MAKE
YOU PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE YOU.''

Now you can see with crystal clarity the difference. It is as different
as night and day. The suffering, the world's suffering in Satan's
instigated and designed way of life leads to death! Both the physical
death of the living dead and spiritual death! Death in life and death in
death!

It is not only meaningless. It could just as well lead to physical, and


eternal spiritual death!

And, oh, what a glorious light it is by which we see that suffering in


the new Way of Life is so full of true and wonderful meaning! Even as
we suffer for Christ, which leads to joy, physical, emotional and
53
spiritual in this life. It finally leads to Everlasting life!

Now you know, as well, that beyond just being delivered from all
unending human suffering, even as now you know the answers to the
most difficult questions about this issue, you could be on your way.

The Apostle Paul, in writing to the followers of Christ in Corinth


confirms this very assurance. He writes in II Corinthians 4:7-18; 5:1-7,
(NKJV):
''But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of
the power may be of God not of us.

We are hard-
hard -pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are
perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but
but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed-
destroyed -

Always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that
the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.

For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that
the life of Jesus
Jesus may also be manifested in our mortal flesh.

So then death is working in us, but life in you.


And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is
written, ''I believed and therefore I spoke,'' we also believe and
also speak,

Knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus, and will present us
with you.

For all things are for your sakes, that grace, having spread
throughout the many, may cause thanksgiving to abound to the
54
glory of God.

Therefore we do not lose heart.


Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is
being renewed day by day.

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for
us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.

While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the
things
thin gs which are not seen. For the things which are seen are
temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.''

Let us carry on to chapter 5:

For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we


have a building from God, a house not made
made with hands, eternal in
the heavens.
For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our
habitation which is from heaven.

Is indeed, having been clothed, we shall not be found naked.

For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because
because we
want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be
swallowed up by life.

Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also
has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in


the body we are absent from the Lord.
55
FOR WE WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT.’’

There! You have read and received it yourself direct from the very
Word of God.

And so, you are indeed on your clear and certain way to the road
that leads to everlasting life.

Eternal life that is yours to receive freely, unconditionally as a gift from


the Eternal Creator God. It is the Heavenly Father's gift of Salvation,
and for you to carry on without suffering forevermore!

Prayer

O HOLY FATHER, ever Merciful, Kind, and Gracious


GOD….

WE come before your Holy Presence, in heaven above, and


bow our heads in worship of You.
We are all shaken and moved by all the interminable
sufferings going on in every corner of the earth. We can not
shake off the haunting, enduring images we have seen printed
on the pages in this book portraying faithfully all the human
sufferings going on, repeatedly all around us.

56
Our Father, Most High GOD, we implore You to have Your
Mercy and Compassion upon the human race that You have
created. You see them, O Lord God, moving to and fro, not
knowing it seems, what to do.

You see their boundless suffering and deep wounds of


sorrow. You see the tears of mothers that flow for the
heartbreaks, horrors and terrors their children suffer through.
They truly are helpless by themselves. You know they are but
dust. We pray for Your mercy upon them all. For Your
Mercy is high, as the heaven is high above the earth.

Do not destroy them Father, for they do not know what they
are doing. They may think they do. Consider, O Lord God,
that they can yet be reached. Touched with the message of
the everlasting Gospel. That they may find and get a clear
glimpse of that enduring hope of deliverance, and final
salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ.

The human family is forever, it seems, in thralldom. In the


depths of insufferable fear and in the corner of the wretched
and the damned. Not knowing how to cope when all the
troubles descend. And bringing so much suffering. Tearing at
the hearts and minds and emotions. Of their entire being.

Grant, O Lord GOD, that this book can impart a


comforting balm that really heals. And reaching out to bring

57
hope and peace, even restoring confidence. In lives that were
shattered. In families and ties that were broken. Let Your
Holy Spirit restore the ruined hopes and lives, by the coming
of living faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. He, who alone can be
the very Rock and foundation upon which the restoration of
these dismembered lives can be put back together.

In You, therefore, O Lord GOD, we look for complete


Mercy and Loving kindness. That we may understand the
cause and reason of all the human sufferings on the earth,
and in the human family, individually and collectively. And
that You will reach out to all that You have created, and put
it in their minds that the way for their deliverance can only
come from You, by Jesus Christ, thru the Holy Spirit.

This we pray in the Name of Your Beloved Son, The Lord


and Saviour Jesus Christ.

AMEN

59
Christ Jesus, The Son of GOD, have one unremitting
MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION. Read it.

JESUS SAID UNTO THEM: “MY MEAT IS TO DO THE WILL OF


HIM THAT SENT ME, AND TO FINISH HIS WORK,” (John 4:34).

To DO the WILL, and to FINISH THE WORK of His Father, GOD


THE FATHER, absolutely, totally, without any micro-iota of doubt,
was His everlasting obsession. It was the raison d’etre, the
rationale, the locus and focus of His Mind, It was the fixed
reference point. It was the very lever, the innermost motivation and
deep-seated drive, of His presence on earth. The driving force of
His manifestation on earth. The back of His mind, mental force on
terrestrial ground, the heavenly correspondence and connection of
His mortal being, in the flesh for 33 1/2 years. He was totally
committed, completely absorbed, to finish His Father's Work, To
His last seconds of His dying breath, His consciousness was on
God’s Work. He had a job to do.. . And that,

HE DID!

When that Phase of God's Work for which purpose He was sent to
earth and manifest in mortal, human, flesh and blood, form was
over, He cried on the upright crude stake, at the very exact moment
before He literally died, He said on that wooden stake, “IT IS
FINISHED” (John 19:30). Has anybody ever really understood the
immensity, the unfathomable depth of that moment of total
sacrifice of the Son of God for the forgiveness of all the sins of all
mankind? Of the total, collective SIN of everyone who was ever
born, lived, died, and those presently alive, which He bore and took
upon Himself on that crucifixion?. Has anyone ever shared the
agony and pain when He was pierced by a Roman soldier’s spear,
and given bitter vinegar to wet His thirsting lips? When He looked
up into Heaven, and exclaimed, as it were, as He had prayed with
60
great agony earlier with His disciples: “Father, if thou be willing,
remove this cup from me: nevertheless, not MY WILL, BUT THINE
BE DONE,”(Luke 22:42). When He willingly shed His precious
Blood, THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB OF GOD, for the redemption
from the penalty of death for sin hanging over ALL mankind? Has
anybody thought of God the Father’s unscalable sorrow as He
witnessed from Heaven the unspeakable brutal tortures inflicted by
good-for-nothing picky, petty, power-crazed, puny mortals, clumps
of clay, those “whitened sepulchres”, and ultimately, the actual,
literal death of the incarnated into human flesh other member of
the GODHEAD? In grief, God the Father could just have pulled out
the Holy Spirit of power holding the entire created universe
together. It would have been , like a blink on the screen, that the
visible, physical, material universe could have disappeared! Faster
than the twinkling of an eye, all the physical, material creation,
visible and invisible, could just have evaporated.

The LORD was absolutely certain He had done that appointed job.

THIS IS THE GREATEST SUCCESS STORY FOR ALL TIME!

He succeeded by His total willingness to obey God the Father. His


total yieldedness to suffer for the sake of the human race that the
Most High God created by Him, thru the Holy Spirit. His total
submission to go through the unbearable pain that tore into His
deepest Being. He willingly yielded in the agony of that one
moment in time when ALL THE SINS OF ALL CREATED
MANKIND CAME UPON HIM! HE BECAME AS SIN TOTALLY
PERSONIFIED! THAT WAS THE EXACT MOMENT IN ALL THE
HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE, YEA, OF ALL ETERNITY, WHEN
GOD THE FATHER TURNED AWAY FROM HIM. WHEN HIS
FATHER TURNED HIS BACK FROM HIM. THE DYING SINLESS,
PERFECT JESUS KNEW. FOR HE CRIED OUT: “MY GOD, MY
GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?”, (Ps 22:1; Mat 27:46;
61
Mk 15:34). His total surrender to the requirements of BRINGING
SALVATION FOR YOU AND ME, YEA, ALL OF US FROM THE
FIRST MAN, TO THE LAST ONE STANDING, EVEN TO THE LAST
ONE WHO DIED, BEFORE HIS RETURN. That He must shed His
precious Blood as the Lamb of God to PURCHASE REDEMPTION
FROM THE PENALTY OF DEATH HANGING OVER EACH OF
THEM. To ultimately literally die that they may all be JUSTIFIED.

AND SO HE DIED. He ‘yielded up the ghost’, (Mat 27:30). For three


days and three nights, He was in the grave, buried with
transgressors! For 3 sunsets and 3 sunrises, the other member of
the GODHEAD was literally dead!

AND THEN HE WAS RISEN! (Mat 27:28; Mk 16:6; Lk 24:34; Jn


2:22; I Cor 15:4, 20). YES, HE WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE
DEAD. To become the firstfruits of them that slept,” (I Cor 15.20).
‘First Born among many brethren’, (Rom 8:29)> “First Born from
the dead’, (Col.1:15). YES, HE LIVES, THAT WE, TOO, CAN
HAVE, MAY HAVE, AND WILL HAVE THE ULTIMATE BLESSING
TO BE RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD. For we all must die,
once.
And after that, the JUDGMENT,’ (Heb 9:27).

“And without controversy, great is the mystery of Godliness: GOD


WAS MANIFEST IN THE FLESH, justified in the Spirit, seen of
angels, PREACHED UNTO THE GENTILES, believed in the world,
received up unto glory,” (I Tim 3:16).

“I have glorified thee on the earth; I HAVE FINISHED THE WORK


Which thou gavest me to do. And Now O Father, glorify thou me
with thine own self with the glory that I had with thee before the
world was,” (Jn 17:4-5).

62
THIS IS THE GREATEST SUCCESS STORY THAT ALL MANKIND
AND THOSE THAT WILL COME AFTER US WILL CELEBRATE IN
JOY FOR ALL ETERNITY!

Before He returned to heaven, He prayed in the true Lord's Prayer


in the 17th chapter of the Gospel Book of John in the New
Testament Scriptures:

THIS IS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST: "I have glorified


Thee on the earth; I have finished the Work which thou gavest me
to do, and now, O Father, glorify me with the glory which I had
with thee before the world was,” (John 17:4)

WHAT DID GOD THE FATHER DO FOR THIS ACCOMPLISHMENT


OF HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON?

“Where God has also exalted Him, and given Him a NAME which is
above every name; that at the NAME of Jesus Christ every knee
should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things
under the earth; and that every tongue should confess Jesus Christ
is Lord, to the glory of God the Father," (PHILIPPIANS 2:9).

SO WHAT, DEAR FRIEND, IS YOUR MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION?

IF YOU DO the Work of God, be it so little your part and


participation, if you do it with cheer, humility, appreciation,
enthusiasm, and zeal being full of faith, you can then hold God to
redeem, to remembrance, and lay claim to, His wonderful promises
on your behalf! Christ did. And God the Father gave it to His Son in
whom He was well pleased. ASK AFTER, and He will give it to you.

WHEN YOU PASS THIS ON, YOU BECOME A PART OF CHRIST'S


TEAM!

63
Listen to God's RECOGNITION of you, your effort: ‘’How beautiful
upon the mountains are the feet of them that bringeth glad tidings,
that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that
publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, thy God reigneth!"
(Isaiah 52:7).

You become part and parcel, not a fence-sitter on the fringes of


skepticism, an integral constituent, a chosen fabric interwoven
with, and of the foremost, unparalleled company: "The LORD gave
the word; great was the company that published it." (Psalms
68:11).

THE GREATEST COMMISSION MUST NOW BE FULFILLED

The Lord Jesus Christ, the Divine Captain of Salvation (Hebrews


2:10), the Author and Finisher of the Faith (Hebrews 12:2), The
LORD of hosts (John 17:5), The returning Messiah (John 1:41;
4:25; Daniel 9:25;9:26);the awaited Great God and our Saviour
(Titus 2:13) gave the 2,000 year-edict: "GO, Preach and publish the
GOSPEL of the KINGDOM OF GOD into ALL NATIONS, GO INTO
ALL THE WORLD, Teach EVERY CREATURE to OBSERVE ALL
THINGS I have commanded you, (Matthew 28:19; Mark 16:15;
Luke 24:47). Be witnesses unto Him to the utmost part of the earth
(Acts 1:8).

Is there a Mission from a Divine Potentate greater than this?

ASTONISHING 21ST CENTURY SCIENCE, INCREDIBLE


TECHNOLOGY METHODS AND AWESOME
COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS INVENTED FOR THIS GREATEST

manufacturers and craftsmen to conceive, design, and fabricate
them. For us to understand how to use and master them to
accomplish and zealously perform our individual part and role in
our most interesting task, our incomparable job, our thrilling
