TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI'S MESSAGE God called our father Ezekiel so that whoever comes to this church will not remain ordinary. He said to him, I have raised you so that you may raise up the poor from the dust. Ezekiel, I have blessed you with many blessings. The blessings come through working talents. For Home talents we work using the same methods that we were using in the Covenant Kingdom Talents then we will see the money we make, making lots of progress. We will see that we will not lack what to give to God in missions, free will offerings etc. God bless you. |
