Dear Friends

Today is the Second Sabbath of the Eleventh Month called Shebat. We will continue on now with the study on Job part V (No. F018v). The text concerns Chs. 25-30. The discussion concerns Bildad's third discourse and Job's reply and his final defense. This is an important step in the elements of Job's trial and the development of the theology. The final two sections expand the theology of the discourse and the comments are important to the Plan of Salvation (No. 001A).

I am writing this message on 26 January 2026 which is Australia Day. On this day two of my mother's ancestors landed in Sydney Cove and they became the First Australians of British Ancestry. They were married by order of Governor Phillip on 17 February 1788 by Rev. Richard Johnson. The families then were joined by others from around the world over the next 238 years from all nations and within. They and two other families founded the Australian Illawarra Shorthorn cattle breed and effectively the dairy industry in Australia. A new nation was formed with proud and independent foundations based on freedom and equality. They fought many wars for our freedom, and we must never forget that fact.

CCG has been fighting for the restoration of the faith over many decades now since the collapse of the Churches of God around the world. It is important to understand what the early history of the Church of God was, and is, and it is demonstrable. More on that on the New Moon of the Twelfth Month Adar. There is massive study now under way In many countries.

Remember that we have to gather as much produce in, as is possible, for the coming Sabbath and Jubilee years and for the Tribulation from the War to the coming of the Messiah from 2026-2030. If you are not Tithing (No. 161) you will learn the hard way. It is the biggest single lesson we have to learn. The lip service ceases from the Passover. Our survival depends on our obedience to the Faith.

Stats this week are 8,827,241. We have regained and exceeded the pre-Solstice figures. The monthly figures are now about 35 million or more. Brazil had some 414,800+ computers this week.

Remember, if you are not properly baptised by the true Church of God and keeping the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar as kept by Christ and the Apostles you are excluded from the First Resurrection (Nos. 143A; 143E). Christ said: if you love me keep my commandments (Jn. 14:15). You will have to repent and keep the Law and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar simply to stay alive into the Millennium as part of the Holy Seed (Nos. 141E_3; 141E_3B).

Remember the foundation of the Law and the Faith is to love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your mind and all your strength, and to love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the testimony (Mat. 22:36-40).
