Precious Letters from Our Readers
We thank God for the many letters of counsel and encouragement we have been receiving. It is the only way we can evaluate our progress. Keep them coming. Our desire is to foster a free flow of edification, inspiration and burden from us to you, and you to us. This way we can pass some of the blessings on to the others who are reading. We would love to hear from you in any of the following ways:
- A meaningful lesson in family devotions that you can pass on to other fathers.
- A testimony for “The Blessing Corner” of God’s blessing in some area of obedience.
- A question that can be answered to the edification of all.
- An area of spiritual growth, obtained by one of the exercises suggested in the magazine.
- A word of encouragement or counsel about The Remnant, or any section of it.
Waiting to hear—The Editors
Dear Editors of Remnant,
Bless God for His longsuffering and mercy towards us, thru His Son Jesus Christ. To him only be the glory.
I just wanted to thank you for the article you had in the Jan-Feb issue of the Remnant. The article titled, Stand behind Your Man. How I so desperately need this teaching. I know there must be hundreds of women who are equally grateful for it, so I will speak on behalf of them also. In a day when Satan has destroyed so many homes thru rebellion in women, we desperately need to repent of the error of our ways. May God help us sisters to turn this tide of evil, by living in the order that God first ordained for us women.

Dear Remnant,
Greetings to ya’ll in our Lord’s sweet name—Jesus! I just wanted to write and let you all know what a blessing it is to receive and to read your magazine. I am really enjoying the Mar/April 2003 magazine. It has challenged me about praying without ceasing. Praying more than usual has been pressing on my heart for at least 2 weeks. Then, to read “The Role of Prayer in Spiritual Awakening” just challenged me even more so. It seems that I am in prayer continuously. At times, I don’t even know what to say, but the Lord puts the words in my mouth that I am to speak. All of us Christians would make such a difference; shake this whole world up really, if we prayed without ceasing. Oh to just be upon our knees and cry unto the Father, to pray for one another and to pray for this world. If we all did so, we would see the difference. God bless you all’s magazine ministry!

Dear Remnant,
Greetings in Jesus name, the worthy King of glory! First of all, thank you for sharing your interview about the church in China. Praise God! My heart is thrilled when I read about a people or a church who gets excited about Jesus, outside of a church building. Praying everywhere, they meet in the shop, in a parking lot, in cars, and yes in caves and forests and in houses. Hallelujah! Thank you King Jesus! The Lord is worthy to be praised everywhere. My heart totally unites with these dear Chinese Christians. I was very much encouraged with the article in the Remnant. God bless you for your labor. Also, thank you for the article on the one-eyed monster, the devil's tool of destruction. There are so many young children and people filled with fear because of it.

Dear Remnant, and Tape Ministry,
Thank you for the heartbeat of this magazine. There is a dearth of godly homes in the church world today. I am a pastor, and I gather the younger parents (those with children at home) of the church in order to listen to your tapes on the Godly Home. We meet about every other week in someone’s house and listen to a tape. My passion is to have godly fathers in my church producing godly homes. I believe this is the foundation of a godly, spiritual church. Many Christians these days in the USA expect the church or a Christian school to create godly children. They are wrong; Dad is the key. May God help us men to sacrifice for our wives and families as Christ loved the church. I loved your interview on the Chinese church. I devour your magazine as soon as it comes each time.

Dear Charity Christian Ministry,
Grace, peace and mercy be with you all from God the eternal and almighty Father, through Jesus Christ who gave himself for our sins and received much suffering that He might deliver us from the evil and perverse world and through the presence of the Holy Spirit that guides us and guards us.
My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, I want you to know that I am so blessed with your messages through the tapes. So is my church here in Hong Kong, The Pentecostal Free Will Baptist Church. We are all Filipinos in the church working as domestic helpers in Hong Kong. Others assured us to preach the gospel in the church. When we learned that women should not stand to preach, our sisters were afraid to do then. Now we listen to a Charity tape on Sunday mornings. Truly, God is a merciful God that He sent someone to fellowship with us. There are truths that are not yet taught to us, which we have learned through the tapes. How great God is for He opens the way for those who seek His kingdom.
I wish I were sitting in one corner of your church hearing the words of God. It is more than enough for us still to let you know that while we are hearing the message, we are there in that room blessed by what we hear and filled by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
God bless your ministry and bless the people whom your tapes, the words of God will reach. I do pray for your dedication to lift up the banner of Jesus Christ.
