It was a declaration: “We are not just aware of the King—we are awaiting Him.”

Letters to the Churches: A Revelation Proclamation to the Advent Christian Movement

I write this not as a prophet, but as a pastor. Not as one who has mastered the message, but as one who has been convicted by it. These words were first preached to my own heart. They are not declarations from on high—they are cries from within. Cries born out of prayer, reflection, and a deep longing to see our churches awaken to the urgency of the hour.
