A lot of
people understand nothing about the word of God and eternal life, but are
running after their own interests and look to satisfy their human needs for
today’s life. Yet the Bible states in John 6:63-66, “The Spirit
gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you are
spirit and they are life. Yet there are some of you who do not believe. For
Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would
betray him. He went on to say, This is why I told you that no one can come to
me unless the Father has enabled him. From this time many of his disciples
turned back and no longer followed him”. Alas, seven of our members have joined
other denominations, despite our many efforts to meet and exhort and encourage
them, showing all our love for them in such a way to have them come back.

I thank God
Almighty for letting me know the truth. May I take the opportunity to thank
brothers and sisters who are keen on converting others, by the Lord’s grace, and
to say that their task is
appreciated and that their reward is with our God. In addition, we want to
follow in preaching the word of God to others around us, as we are aware that
there are those who have not yet received the truth. When Bro. David
Nightingale visited our ecclesia he enlightened us regarding the prophet Elijah,
that he didn’t go to heaven, but is in the grave waiting for the coming of the
Lord Jesus Christ. I enclose a photo during a meeting at Mpinganjira.

I’m now here
in Malawi with my family and not in Namibia. I’ve made up my mind that I can’t
return there and I appeal to you for any information about the brethren here.

We are living
in the last days and the book of life will soon be shut and I want to be in it,
so please help me to understand more about the
Bible by sending me letters and literature. I find Gospel News supports
me by letting me know what others are doing and how we can broadcast the gospel
message.

I sincerely
thank you for the book, Elpis Israel, which I received. I am expecting to be
baptized in early May and only wish you could have come to witness this, for I
have now made my decision to follow the required steps to be “born again” (John
3:2-5): (1) hearing the words of God and believing them (2) confession (3)
repentance (4) to be born of water (baptism). I have now come to know the
difference between being born of water and that of the holy spirit. A person
will be born of the spirit when they are rewarded with immortality after Jesus
coming, as Jesus was now over 2000 years ago. We had a Bible study at Bro.
George’s home and I enclose a photo.
