Greetings from Charlotte,Numbers never give the whole story. There was a time when more than 156,000 attended the Feast of Tabernacles in the Worldwide Church of God, but where are they today? That is why we need to be careful not to judge things by numbers alone. But out of that number a remnant…

Greetings from Charlotte,Some of you may have noticed that last week’s video update was not posted on time.

Greetings from Charlotte,Unleavened bread is part of the Passover service, but the Bible does not give us a specific recipe to use, stipulating only that it must be unleavened (Exodus 12:8; Matthew 26:26). Historically, the Church has used store-bought plain Matzos or homemade unleavened bread from…

Greetings from Charlotte,We are now a month away from the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread. Let us make sure we are preparing by examining ourselves to find unrepented-of leaven in our lives.

Greetings from Charlotte,Mr. Rod McNair and his assistant, Tyler Wayne, do a lot of work behind the scenes that most are not aware of. For example, they hold meetings with Festival Coordinators and others to make sure we conduct orderly Feasts each year and that everyone is on the same page. They…

Greetings from Charlotte,I have mentioned on more than one occasion that as we approach the end of mankind’s rule on Earth, one of the greatest trials for the people of God is that of controlling our emotions of anger and hatred. Satan loves to have us angry and revels when he sees us hating one…

Greetings from Charlotte,Do you realize that we have a Work going on in the Portuguese language? Mr. Wallace Smith’s telecast explaining how the Rapture is a false and misleading doctrine has now been translated into Portuguese, and we have two dozen in-print and electronic Portuguese booklets.…
