Brother Don,
It is sad to the flesh when we lose a brother or a sister in natural
death.
Yet in the spirit we should rejoice as this brother and sister is
going home to be in the present of the Sovereign God who in his gracious
love made us vessels of honor to His Glory for all eternity.
Christ Is Our Hope,
Brother Ray

*Bro. Don, it is written that “we have life and have it more
abundantly...”*
*Our precious Lord gave us the prime example of “abundance” when HE was
with us in the flesh for the 1260-days of HIS sojourn.*
*If you recall, HE said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, except a corn of
wheat fall into the ground and die, it*
*abideth alone, but if it die, it bringeth forth MUCH fruit.” *
*First, HE said the blade appears, then the stalk, and afterward the ear,
and then the full ear of corn, in fact many ears on the same stalk, i.e.
that’s life more abundantly.*
*The same principle is true with one kernel of wheat in the head or pod.*
*There are 50 kernels in one pod. When the pod is planted, each single
kernel yields 50 pod, or when calculated, 50 pod X 50 pod, each having 50
grain in them. A**gain, that’s evidence of life more abundantly.*
*Fast forward to Resurrection Day. *
*Bro. Don if you and I are what we profess to be (and I know you are,
sometimes however I have doubts about myself), but if*
*we are what we profess to be, our precious Lord will plant us and we like
that one grain of corn or one single kernel of wheat will yield, life more
abundantly. Eternal life will be greater than what we **think or imagine
from this carnal, and wicked world. *
*The apostle said it best. “Eye hath not seen, nor ear hear, nor has it
entered into the heart of man, the “things”*
*that God has prepared for them that love him.” So yes my **dear
brother, God’s dear children have so much “life abundance” awaiting them
that they can’t even imagine what God has in store on the day of their
demise.*
*Bless you.....Bro. Don.......May HIS face shine upon you is my prayer...*

*Subject:* FW: Dying Grace
Dearly Beloved blessed with faith and hope by the gift of grace,
Please listen to what I have to say here, God grants to his children in
the determined time "DYING GRACE". What I mean by this is, when the child
of God has a fatal disease God prepares them for the "End of life" by
causing them to be resigned to His determined will and pleasure. For the
entirety of the scriptures relate to the afterlife for those blessed to
believe Christ's divine promises.
The totality of the gospel of Christ is focused around His provision of
life everlasting to the elect blessed with an immortal and incorruptible
body likened unto His own glorious body. This is the message of hope which
I have been blessed to proclaim for over 49 years. "DYING GRACE" is absent
of denial and totally relies upon the truth of Christ's gospel. This is
why so often the devout Christian often feels envious of those that have
finished their earthly journey as many of my Christian Brethren have even
expressed to of late being tired of this pilgrimage in a world of sin and
wickedness. What is here that we would greatly desire to remain and cling
to this temporal life?
I have been blessed with Gods "DYING GRACE" at this time as my journey
continues to conclude. I want out of this fleshly cursed tabernacle of
dust. Meanwhile, I rest in Christ mercy and sovereign will to be
manifested. Like Bro. Jack Dawsey had wrote after traveling to preach a
memorial service for a dear member of a church a couple hours away where he
had ministered, "I am tired and weary of the battle as I see all the demise
of the nation and the weakness of my body, I await my day of departure".
I "want out" of this body of dust taken over with disease. I have a
wondrous hope beyond this earthen journey that is plagued with sins curse
and vanity.
By Christ love, respectfully,
DONALD E. MARTIN. Sr.
