We, Julie and I, returned from a 10 day trip to southern Ukraine this week. We conducted our first Master class of the season and graduation ceremony. We traveled unto Odessa and started a new college. It was so much fun to experience their hunger for the Word of God. Many students are in class only because they want the degree, learning is not their priority. But this school is much different. It was very pleasant to teach these new students.
The students provided an excursion of the city of Odessa.
It is a beautiful city and very clean. The architect is absolutely unbelievable. A French man founded Odessa. He was an engineer and brought engineers from all over the world to design the city and buildings. I would highly recommend a visit to Odessa. Also, it is on the Black Sea, if you like the water and boats.
Today, I leave for Dnepropetrovsk for their graduation tomorrow. Monday we will begin the first Doctorate class. I am excited. God has given me some awesome material to teach regarding the ‘Real Jesus and the Original Church.’ I have learned so much from studying and writing this course. The Doctorate level will focus on Revelation and how the other 65 books point to it and how they are prophetic of the Book of Revelation. For example: the sacrifice in the Garden of Eden; and the lamb sacrifice in Exodus and Leviticus points to the ‘Lamb Who had been slain.’
When God is going to move in a great way, we experience opposition. Please pray that we are over-comers of the opposition thrown our way. The college hired Julie. So far she is doing a great job and providing great encouragement for me. Please pray for her. Our first class was full of confrontation and disbelief; we have one school who desires the paper degree and have an attitude of ‘we know it all.’ It is a difficult situation and they treated Julie very poorly. We prayed afterward and God rewarded us with the desire for knowledge in Odessa. Praise God.
Thank you for your continued prayer support.
May God shine His face upon you today.
