are engaged in corrupt activities and are busy
stealing public funds, building the best homes
as part of their investment and of their re-
sources and do not consider the poor people.
The world now seems to be motivated by
personal gain. I urge all brethren and sisters
that whatever difficulties we may face in this
journey to the Kingdom of God, to hold on
to that great and precious hope before us and
pray for God’s Kingdom to come that our
sorrows may be over. Let us think of the court
of the Gentiles. John 2:13-16.
The encroachment upon the Gentile court by
the priest salesmen of sacrificial animals and
birds, is an indication of their degeneracy and
also a symbol of how the whole religious
service was debased, instead of a house of
prayer it had become a den of thieves. The
object of the Jews’ desire was not righteous-
ness before God but wickedness. The Jews are
a type of our natural sinful life from Adam.
Should we follow the bondage of the Law? The
choice is ours, brothers and sisters, to choose
that which leads to destruction or the faith in
the service of Almighty God and have the
promise of God, everlasting life, the Way of
God or the way of man. No one makes us to
sin, we do so because we want to, and we find
sin pleasurable. The way is prepared for us.
Jesus is God’s manifestation in the flesh, jus-
tified in the spirit and is the only Name given
among men whereby we can be saved and in-
herit the coming Kingdom.

funding. Work is in progress for a permanent
site for Livingstone Ecclesia.

I have been very busy lately working in the
vineyard. Recently Bro Kelly and I have been
on mission work to the south of Zambia. We
visited Muzoka, Kalomo and Livingstone Eccle-
sias. Our aim was to hold Bible talks and
strengthen ecclesias in Kalomo. We had one
baptism by Bro Kelly, Sister Florence Mungaila
at Dapharn Ecclesia. In Kalomo there is
interest for the word of life and I was
impressed by what our brothers are doing
there. Bre Occray Icaneembe and Joseph
Lumyna have been preaching on radio about
