I have been conducting the Adult Bible Class for the last ten years at our Church - William Booth Corps. This was initiated by Major Allen Satterlee, our pastor that that time. He himself is an excellent Bible teacher and preacher. Currently he is the Editor in Chief of the War Cry in USA. You can read the publication on line.
He also arranged for Mrs. Lim Li Ching, a retired school teacher, to help me and fill in those Sundays when my wife and I would be away preaching at another church. About once a month he himself would sit in the class to give support and encouragement.
Our Corps Secretary, Terence Tan has also been helping me whenever I needed his input. For the last three weeks Terence did a series of studies on the Inter Testament period, known as the "Silent years." He did a lot of research and presented his lessons using Power Point. Those who attended were truly blessed.
Four hundred silent years, but God was actively working our His purposes. Recall the words of Paul to the Galatians, "When the time had fully come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law." Galatians 4: 4. The incarnation of Christ was God's appointed hour. God's timing is always perfect. It's amazing that God utilizes history to fulfil His purposes.
