Dear Jerry and New Life--
I'm a student here at Linfield College, and I have been attending your meetings for the past four meetings. I won't make it to the Tuesday or Thursday meetings (Thursday I will be speaking at FCA, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, about Grace). I do want to say that I have been incredibly blessed by your focus on the Holy Spirit! Being raised in a conservative Baptist church, and knowing about the Spirit, but never understanding who he is had me fighting sin and temptation under my own power. God has released something in me through your meetings, and my desire for the Holy Spirit and the fire that I have now received is overwhelming. I just spent the past two hours speaking with and witnessing to a devout Muslim in my dorm. Basically we started comparing beliefs and it all began because he saw my joy, my fire, my passion, and he knows that there is something in me that he doesn't have. He left my room, still assured of his faith, but with the book by Josh MacDowell More Than a Carpenter in his hand. Praise God! That deserves a dancing banana icon!
I am excited for the change that is happening on Linfield campus! God is no longer Click read more for the rest of the story
going to stand back while we make pathetic efforts at ministry! NO! HE IS COMING IN FIRE AND PASSION! HIS HEART FOR THE LOST IS QUICKLY BECOMING OUR HEART FOR THE LOST! HE IS MOVING! Also, Jerry, we are holding you to your word. You said you will come to Linfield. We will reveal the mysteries of God and the power of the Spirit to this campus in exchange for your life-altering revelation of the power of the Holy Spirit on our campus! God Bless your ministry, and may God grant you a surplus of treasures in Heaven!! It has been a pleasure thus far to be immersed in the Spirit with you, and I am looking forward to eternity when all of us will be able to sing of God's great Love and Grace! I am still just a ragamuffin, a sinner redeemed by Grace, and I never want to forget where I was pulled from, for I love much for I have been forgiven much! God pulled me from the pit of all my sins, and not only that, he pulled me from the pit of my self-righteousness! Praise His Holy Name!!
"Get yourself ready! Stand up and say to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them. Today I have made you a fortified city, an iron pillar and a bronze wall to stand against the whole land--against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests and the people of the land. They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD. Jeremiah 1:17-19
Thank you as well to the congregation at New Life Assembly of God for the immense outpouring of LOVE that you have given not only to myself but to all the Linfield students that have come. I feel as though I am truly your brother, and the love of you all has been a true testament to the Love of our Father in Heaven, and it is true, that the world will know that we love Jesus by the love that we show. God is with you! Go in strength! Go in grace!
Thank you from someone who is touched with your love and passion.
God is with us, and for us, and no one and nothing can possibly stand against us and prevail! NOT EVEN THE GATES OF HELL! Praise Jesus! In the words of Jerry himself, "Someone give God the Glory!"
Thank you Jerry, and New Life!
Your Brother,
Dave Cramer
