From Moses to David, GOD shows how humble beginnings
can become great endings. When Moses fled from pharaoh he became a shepherd for forty years. In the LORD’S providence
Moses was removed from all the worldly pleasures, education, and philosophy, where his every whim could be carried out, to a more private
environment where GOD could educate him and prepare him for the calling of the LORD. During this time Moses learned every
important lesson of life’s survival as well as every method to guard those under his care. The simple care of flocks
were his guidebook that prepared him for the arduous journey he was about to undertake at the LORD’S command. The LORD
chose wisely, because it is said of Moses: “Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.”
Nu.12:3. The same education was provided the youngest son of Jesse, David.
David’s experience as a shepherd likewise prepared him for the leadership of Israel. And when the Philistines came against
Israel, and every man trembled, fearing the might of the great warrior Goliath, there was only one who stood calm against
the threat: “And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with
this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but
a youth, and he a man of war from his youth. And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there
came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out of
his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. Thy servant slew both the
lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living
God. David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver
me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.” I Sam.17:32-37 Those
lessons gave to David the confidence to which his faith led him to stand calm in the face of that nine and a half foot tall
“man of war:” Goliath. Even
at the Advent of “Emmanuel:” the birth of “the Holy One of God,” Jesus Christ, the life of the shepherd
has received the LORD’S blessing above all men. There was a group of shepherds tending their flocks on the night of
His birth. They had prayed for the Messiah to come and had studied the Scriptures to understand decisively the Event of the
Ages. To these lowly shepherds GOD gave a personal invitation to attend the birth of “his only begotten Son.”
The intellectuals are passed by. The wealthy are passed by. The theologians are passed by. How often the ones who are considered
least on earth become the most blessed of GOD, as it is written, "The LORD thy GOD turned the curse into a blessing unto
thee because the LORD thy GOD loved thee." Deut.23:5.

Commandment
Keepers invites every Christian to join the closing work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and establish twelve member groups
within your respective country, heralding the titles: Commandment Keepers Kenyan Assembly, British Assemby,
Brazilian Assembly, etc. As the Bible teaches, the redeemed of earth will come from "every nation, and kindred,
and tongue, and people." Rev.14:6. And all will have stood faithful to Christ's Words, "But if thou wilt
enter into life, keep the commandments." Matt.19:17. To meet the specific cultural
needs of the different peoples of the world, a custom tailored witness is vital for successful evangelism. While the
message of Salvation through the Creator/Christ is universal in its scope, people's cultural affections vary greatly from
land to land. What can bring tears of joy to one group can actually harden the hearts of another.
To receive this ministry outline click "The Evangelists" below. It contains all the materials needed to succeed
in this invaluable type of ministry. Two reasons for the need of small church
companies at this time in history: 1. There are six branch ministries, which cover all areas of the closing gospel
work, providing each member with an invaluable task. Teamed up in pairs for each of the branch ministries, none
will sit on the sidelines, feeling useless, and where each have equal value to the success of the ministry's
work. 2. Economic streamlining has become an essential factor in the closing work. As America
and other countries proceed in their place in Bible prophecy a structure of ministry must be in place to carry out
the Savior's closing work on the minds and hearts of the people just at the time it is needed the most. This efficient, low cost approach to the closing work will be lavished with
GOD'S blessing. Each of these small church companies will be given an eloquent, persuasive testimony
by GOD: to share in the most privileged work on Earth: enlightening the world with His Glory: His redeeming love found in
the truth, as the truth is in Jesus:" as Creator of heaven and earth; what He has done: as
bearing the punishment for the sins of men; and what He is doing: interceding on behalf of His faithful children who are continuously
accused of the devil; and what He will do: deliver His faithful children when He comes again.
Through His Presence, Guidance and Intervention, the faith of Bible literate and obedient Christians will swell
to a lofty summit, preparing them for the coming of the LORD. Lastly,
no tithe is required except to budget your ministry's needs.
