because they were divorced from one outside the Church.
I want all of you to know how happy we are for the answer
given by God Himself, and how much I and all loyal ministers
appreciate deeply from the heart the faithfulness of those of you
who have endured this anguish in order to be obedient to our God.
Loyalty and faithfulness always pays; God may test us for a while.
But if we are faithful, I say again with Paul: "I reckon the
sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with
the glory which shall be revealed in us" (Romans 8:18).
With love in Jesus' name,
Herbert W. Armstrong
