It was through drive and divine intervention that God gave me the courage to write what he wanted men to know and to remind them that he is still in control.

For the writing of this book is exciting to me, of us being able to prepare for Jesus' return. And as the Scriptures say, to watch and pray means that Jesus really would like to have us come with Him on His return to the Father's house in heaven.Most do know very little about the function of a church body of believers when it comes to the proper role of an apostle, a prophet, an evangelist, a bishop/pastor, and a teacher. And as how to define the...
