Death Notice - D. Elwood Matthews

I just learned a few-minutes-ago that Bishop D. Elwood Matthews passed away last night. All who have been around the Church of God of Prophecy for any length of time know this is one of the "legends" of our church.

A minister with a great wit and dynamic preaching style, Bishop Matthews served as a State Overseer but most notably as the minister for the Voice of Salvation.

I will post arrangements as I receive them. Please join my in prayer for Roberta and the rest of the family.

We are praying for Roberta and family. Bother Matthews impacted our lives and we have wonderful memories of the times we were blessed by attending conventions in Colorado where he was ministering. We know that he is rejoicing around the throne of God. Thanks to God for allowing us to know such a faithful servant of the Lord.

Come Down From That Ivory Tower

Hebrews 11 has become known as the "Hall of Faith." The reason is quite simple. The writer spends a great deal of time giving a role call of the heroes of the faith. After all, this chapter is about faith, and what better way to teach faith than to illustrate with some real-life examples. Mos of the people in this chapter are well-known, at least by anyone who spent time squirming in a Sunday School class as a small child, or who watched the late-night movies on the local channels featuring their stories. Who were they? Abel, Enoch and Noah. Abel pleased God with his excellent offering, Enoch was so close to God that he actually walked with God to the point that one evening, while walking God said to Enoch, "we are closer to my house than we are yours, so why don't you just go home with me?" Of course, Noah built an ark (according to God's instructions) that saved mankind from total destruction. Then there was Abraham...the father of the faithful. He
