PASTOR GENERAL'S REPORT, August 6, 1979
Page 2
As I stated in the most recent Pastor's Report, this entire system
of Pastoral Administration has brought only disharmony, a competitive
spirit, and a coveting of power within the Church of God.
God teaches us that we must have UNITY� We must all SPEAK THE SAME
THING, and be of ONE MIND--the mind of CHRIST and God's Holy Spirit. Self
seeking has no place in the Church of God, and the Church has been full
of it. As Christ leads, we are trying to elimi�ate all that, and restore
humility, the attitude of "GIVE" instead of "GET," and eliminate power
struggles for dominant authority in the Church of the living GOD!
I ask you all to PRAY fervently and earnestly for PEACE, HARMONY, and
UNITY and a self-sacrificing spirit within God's Church.
Jesus Christ GAVE HIMSELF for the church that it might be holy, with
out spot or wrinkle or blemish. We must confess we have been full of spots,
wrinkles and blemishes. Christ is coming very soon. TIME IS SHORT. Reve
lation 19 says the Church will have made herself READY when Christ comes.
WE ARE NOT YET READY!
PLEASE HELP ME, dear �inisters of the living GOD, to make God's
Church READY!
