Israel is working closely with other countries to promote required solutions, not only on a vaccine for coronavirus, but on many aspects of daily life affected by this new enemy. More than ever, Israel is a strong power, not only militarily, but even more importantly, in the capacity of its people and the values they represent. There are 2 very important results in Israel bringing the polarized political parties together and loosening the grip Ultra-Orthodox rabbis wield over their congregations perhaps bringing the Ultra Orthordox closer to be more unified with the rest of the country. 22:17:38 From Thomas Canell : about Br Leon Millin 22:19:50 From TECanell : would you like me to post the address and phone number? 22:21:08 From Seth and Alina Kopak : Leon Millin: 1-818-317-8142 22:21:13 From Thomas Canell : Br Leon Millin 317 Sycamore Glen Drive Apartment # 425 Miamisburg, Ohio 45342 (818) 317-8142 22:22:22 From Thomas Canell : March 30, 1929 – Br Leon Millin 22:35:55 From Thomas Canell : from Sister Sandra Bierman [R2181-2184 pages 200-203] Paul a Prisoner at Philippi.—July 11, 1897.—Acts 16:22-34.—"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."—Acts 16:31. [R2182 page 202]…Madam Guyon, while imprisoned in the Castle Vincennes (1695), wrote songs and sang them in praise to God. Writing of it subsequently she said, "It sometimes seems to me as if I were a little bird, whom the Lord had placed in a cage, and that I had nothing now to do but to sing. The joy of my heart gave brightness to the objects around me. The stones of my prison looked to my eyes like rubies." In prison she wrote:— "A little bird I am, shut from the fields of air; And in my songs I sit and sing to him who placed me there: Well pleased a prisoner thus to be, because, my God, it pleaseth thee. My cage confines me round,—abroad I cannot flee; But though my wing is closely bound, my heart's at liberty. My prison walls cannot control the flight, the freedom of my soul." 22:36:39 From Thomas Canell : ===================================== What special thoughts might tie in with the coming Memorial? ===================================== 22:46:49 From TECanell : (Luke 22:15 CEV) he said to them, "I have very much wanted to eat this Passover meal with you before I suffer. 22:46:50 From TECanell : . 22:47:02 From TECanell : (Luke 22:15 KJV) And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 22:47:03 From TECanell : . 22:55:14 From Br Ray biblestudents australia : I have 12 different memorial services available on MP3 If this would assist any of the Brethren 22:55:37 From TECanell : Strong's G4307 pronoia pron'-oy-ah From G4306; forethought, that is, provident care or supply: - providence, provision. 22:57:38 From TECanell : (Hebrews 13:16 KJV) But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. 22:57:38 From TECanell : . 22:58:15 From TECanell : (Hebrews 13:16 Rotherham) But, of the doing good and of fellowship, be not forgetful; for, with such sacrifices as these, is, God, well-pleased. 22:58:16 From TECanell : . 23:00:02 From paul & joyce lagno : Prayer, Praise and Testimony Meeting Wednesday, April 1, 2020 7PM Meeting 23:00:17 From paul & joyce lagno : LOG-IN INSTRUCTIONS https://zoom.us/j/771308760 Or, go to https://zoom.us, select Join A Meeting, and enter this Meeting ID: 771 308 760 In order to hear the broadcast, you must 'Join with Computer Audio’ when prompted, or you must dial in by phone.

(1 Cor. 11:31) To be of this class requires fulness of [E234] consecration; and these are and will be the overcomers, who shall be deemed worthy of joint-heirship with Christ Jesus their Lord in his Kingdom. To this class, obedient and watchful, the Lord says, "I will guide thee with mine eye," "Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel and afterward receive me to glory." Those who can be guided only by continual scourging are not of the overcoming class, and will not be accounted worthy to be of the Lord's Bride, and have such a "witness" from the Lord through the Spirit of the Truth. Psa. 32:8; 73:24; contrast Rev. 7:9,14. 23:05:35 From Allen Springer : Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. 1 Timothy 6:12 23:05:59 From Thomas Canell : ===================================== March 30th Songs in the Night They sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. Revelation 15:3 THE more we come to appreciate divine justice and the righteousness of the sentence of death against our race, the more also we come to appreciate the love and mercy of God toward us, and to rejoice that he was not willing that any should perish, and hence made provision wide enough, high enough, deep enough, that all might turn unto him and live – have everlasting life. This provision of mercy cannot ignore the sin nor can it permit the sinner to ignore it. It is necessary that the redeemed should know, should appreciate, their fallen condition, the justice of their sentence of death, and that their recovery is wholly of divine mercy. Unless they learn this lesson they could never appreciate the divine arrangements and the only terms upon which 23:06:10 From Thomas Canell : God could grant them everlasting life – terms of acceptance of God's grace and forgiveness and their obedience to him and his principles of righteousness. Z'06-62 R3729:5 (Hymn 79) - The Song of Moses and the Lamb ===================================== March 31st Daily Heavenly Manna Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. 1Timothy 6:12 WHETHER our warfare be of the more public kind or of the more private sort, there must be warfare; and, more than this, there must be progress and victory, else we can never be accepted of the Lord as "overcomers." Another thought should be borne in mind by us all....The Lord in making His estimate will take knowledge of the spirit which actuated us, rather than of the results secured by our efforts....In view of this, let us see to it, not only that we do with our might what our hands find to do, but also that our every sacrifice and gift to the Lord and His cause is so full of love and devotion that the Lord will surely approve it; as done from love for Him and His, and not from vain glory. Z'03-91 R3166:3 ====================================== 23:07:10 From TECanell : (Deuteronomy 31:8 KJV) And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.
