A Brief Report to our Readers
By Pastor F. M. Riley

     It has been nearly three weeks since I have posted a Bible Study on the Internet for God's people, and for lost seeking souls.  This has been due to my being very ill with a bad cold and the flu.  This is the first time I have had the flu since 1965, and the effects of it haven't improved a bit since the last time I had it.  If some readers wonder about this lengthy period of time in which I never experienced the flu, it was because I began taking Vitamin C on a regular daily basis in 1965.  When I did, I never caught the flu anymore in all of these years.  Nine years ago I added Collodial Silver to this daily regimen, and my entire health improved. Sadly, over a month ago I ran out of Collodial Silver, and I stopped taking Vitamin C every day, and as a result I caught a cold and the flu almost immediately.  
     Anyway, I have almost recovered from my illness, but I would certainly appreciate the prayers of my brothers and sisters in Christ for a full recovery.  I hope to get back to writing out the great truths of God's Word, and sending them out in Bible Studies again.  I have no idea how much longer this Bible Study ministry will last, as I still believe our Lord is coming for His people real SOON.  But until then, please remember me in prayer when you go to Father God's throne of grace.  
     Was it just "coincidence" that immediately following the Solar Eclipse on August 21st, here came Hurricane Harvey tearing up the Gulf Coast of Texas and Louisiana?   Before Harvey was done, Hurricane Irma developed in the Atlantic and struck the islands off the east coast of Florida, and then plowed on into the State of Florida and northwest.  It too, just like Harvey, caused massive damage.  As I write, it is reported that some 50,000 people in Florida are still without electrical power, and many are without homes to go back to.    Pray earnestly for all of these people effected by these hurricanes, and especially for their salvation in Christ Jesus.   
     Folks, the Solar Eclipse followed by these two massive hurricanes were more warning "signs" from the Lord, that we are living in the end of this age and the resurrection and rapture could occur at any minute of any day now.  The Lord Jesus Himself described the days just preceding the terrible Tribulation period with these words,  "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring," Luke 21:25.  Well, are we living in such days, or are we not?  Every honest reader knows the answer to this question.  Folks, it grieves my heart to think of the many people who are going to be left behind when the rapture occurs, because they have refused to receive Christ as their own personal Savior.  Please pray earnestly for the salvation of the lost, and witness to every person you can.   
      The Lord leading and permitting, a Bible study will soon follow.  God bless you all is my prayer.  In the love of Christ Jesus and His Word,
