HANG IN THERE “For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than
our heart, and knoweth all things.” I Jn.3:20 “For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that
call upon thee…thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering,
and plenteous in mercy and truth.” Ps.86:5,15
The GOD of heaven has but one purpose in His relationship with His children: to serve the wellbeing and perpetual peace
of all life. This is the way it was, “In the beginning” (Gen.1:1). Jesus testified of heaven’s objective
in restoring all that was lost because of the intrusion of sin: “I am come that they might have life, and that they
might have it more abundantly.” The LORD’S promise of abundant life has but one objective: “that your joy
might be full.” Jn.10:10; 15:11. This is what salvation is all about.
Today, multitudes are in misery. GOD never intended this course for the lives of His children. But with His gift of
freewill, all are given the liberty to choose their manner of living and the destiny to which it leads, whether to live forever,
or to cease to live—forever. The choice is simple. To exercise the path marked out in the life of Jesus Christ is the
finest manner of living one can receive in a sinful world. But with this decision comes all manner of obstacles, heartaches,
temptations, and blunders in the course of one’s Christian life. Discouragement, persecution and perplexity is common
in the life of a Christian. And the Bible believing Christian suffers a thousand fold above those who deny GOD’S existence
and/or authority. It is precisely as David said 3000 years ago: “For
I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. For there are no bands in their death: but their strength
is firm. They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men. Therefore pride compasseth them about
as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily. They set their mouth against the heavens,
and their tongue walketh through the earth. Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to
them. And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High? Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper
in the world; they increase in riches. Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency. For all
the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning. If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against
the generation of thy children. When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me; Until I went into the sanctuary of
God; then understood I their end.” Ps.73:3-17.
David’s words sum up the conflict between the righteous and the unrighteous: the humble vs. the proud. Times
change but the age-old struggles never change—not until Christ comes to sweep away all that afflicts us in this day
and age. To give yourself to the faith
“that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself” (II Cor.5:19), one quickly finds himself in a spiritual
battlefield that requires patience, perseverance, and above all the call to maintain the Presence of the Holy Spirit, Whose
unselfish love will aid you to steer clear from the world that is drowning in fundamentally immoral values. If only men understood the controversy between Satan
and Christ: sin and righteousness: and had the wherewithal to choose “the way, the truth, and the life” (Jn.14:6).
How freely the gift of receiving salvation truly is through a simple faith in the love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Yet
how few have prayed as did Gideon and receive GOD’S approbation: “let me prove, I pray thee, but this once…And
God did so that night.” Jud.6:39, 40.
Nevertheless, Jesus said it plain enough: “him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out” (Jn.6:37).
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life,
and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” (Jn.5:24). “These words are true and
faithful” to all who with “faith as a grain of mustard seed” embrace the promise of GOD’S redemption
through Jesus: “not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation”
(Rev.21:5; Lu.17:6; II Cor.5:19). The Gospel of Jesus Christ calls all to come, “without money and without price”
(Isa.55:1). Christ will see you through,
if He lives in your heart: to lead, to guide—and to comfort. “I
will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn
again to folly.” Ps.85:8. “My little children, these things
write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And
he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And hereby we do know
that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and
the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are
in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.” I Jn.2:1-6.
“Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.”
I Jn.3:21.

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.
