SALUTATIONS

“Restore now to them, even this day, their lands, their vineyards, their olive groves, and their houses, also a hundredth of the money and the grain, the new wine and the oil, that you have charged them” (Nehemiah 5:11, NKJV).

INVITATION TO SPECIAL JOINT SERVICE NOV. 2

A team of four special UK guests arrive Friday (Nov. 1) for a six-day agenda that includes—in addition to the Conference-wide service at Kings Church on Sabbath (Nov. 2) at 4 pm—visits to Cayman Academy, outreach to the wider Cayman community, and appearances on Praise 87.9.  All church members, especially church leaders and parents, are invited to attend the joint service.   

The UK guests are led by Pastor Brighton Kavaloh, who has served for a combined 37 years in the pastoral ministry and administration at the South England Conference and the British Union Conference. In addition to his preaching and speaking engagements, Dr. Kavaloh regularly conducts seminars and lectures devoted to religious liberty and legislative issues, particularly relevant to these end times. Presentations by Pastor Kavaloh and his team will be invaluable for all church members.

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

The men who are legislating, and those who are executing the laws of our government, while they are violating the laws of their being in debasing appetites, which stupefy and paralyze the intellect, are not fitted to decide the destiny of their fellow men. Those only who feel the necessity of keeping soul, body, and spirit in conformity to natural law, to the end that they may preserve the right balance of their mental powers, are fitted to decide important questions in reference to the execution of the law of our land. This was the mind of God by decrees to the Hebrews that wine should not be used by those who ministered in holy office. {Con 82.4}
