ELDERS' EXHORTATION (Br. Vid & Br. Sam, 7-01--23)

We are reminded in 2 Timothy 3:12, “All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution, (while evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.)  Brother Sam’s heart aches for the young people who have left the church over the past three years, perhaps seduced by the world, they are aimlessly adrift without God. He identifies with our Pastor’s agony over concern for the saints in these troubled days. We know that pestilence and severe trials shake the earth and heaven. Yet there is a purpose: “Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain” (Hebrews 12:27).
