NEWS FROM BROTHERS & SISTERS
We as a community keep saying, `Come, Lord Jesus.' It won't be long before our Lord Jesus returns. I was baptized in 2006 when I was 23. `It won't be long now' is on every Christadelphian's lips â how long is `long'? Well, it will be soon!
Though we should focus on the land of Israel, in the city of Jerusalem we can see that Jews are not allowed to pray on the Temple Mount, the holiest place: this is quite astonishing and one wonders, why not? We don't know all the details going on in politics. What is keeping them back? It simply means to us that Israel's time is not yet ready, but very soon Jesus will return to establish God's Kingdom and put things in order.
The words I have said above have substance, they are not just words and hope, they are words from above, I believe. Let us continue to live by faith in the Son of God until he returns, and may He bless each one of us wherever in the world we may be, who long for His appearing â for we are all God's people.
There has been much going on concerning the signs of the times, recently we have seen the dramatic news of the resignation of Pope,Benedict xvi telling the world that
he is stepping down as head of the Catholic Church. Just after his announcement, lightening struck the vatican, perhaps it is was a Divine warning of problems to come.
We all wait for the time of Zion's glorious day when the resurrection of the sleeping saints will take place with the returning of the Messiah to establish God's kingdom.

You may wish to know that I was your Bible student from 1987-1990, August 18th when Bro. Graham Mitchell baptized me. During this period all the magazines sent to me have been passed on to other fellow Bible students.

I have received Gospel News and the DVD and I am anxious to take it to someone who will play it for me. My main reason for writing this letter is to request one New European Version Bible, (as we have only one Bible between us); the book entitled `Wrested Scripture,' and the book `Principles of Marriage.'
