Searching the Scriptures

The Lord is indeed very good and always ready to guide and educate those who desire to be right with Him. The preacher training is going very well and every participants is showing huge potentials in their preaching of the truth. The truth are being preached and studied every day from the start of the said training. Your humble servant and the fellow preachers who are attending this training are really receiving huge blessings through the words of our God. I have observed many encouraging events and situations that has touched our hearts and made us understand more the importance of strengthening our faith more. We have cried with fellow preachers who experienced homesickness and other problems; one instance is our brother Edwin Soriano who shed tears after we ate our lunch, when approached and asked he answered he suddenly remembered his wife and three children and wondered if they are eating properly. Though many experience problems and sadness still we see the desires in the hearts of each preacher to finish this training, like a fire burning, and be able to go out and obey what the Lord commanded and proclaim the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
