Acknowledgement
Throughout my entire life, God has richly (and so patiently) provided many to aid toward my station and development and ultimate apostolic calling. So often, I was kept from losing my footing and faltering in mind and heart through divinely inspired care, prayer, instruction, inspiration, and guidance. Early on, a number of devoted saints invested personal effort and energy toward my present and eternal well being. Beginning with my loving parents (Ministers in the Church of God in Jesus Christ), who by the grace and wisdom of God provided a solid example, laid a sound foundation, and provided continual tutelage. In keeping with the first verse of Romans chapter 15, I was literally kept afloat in early and later years through their prayers and care together with many in the Church including aunts, uncles, and the love and care of a number of Elders.
During later years, the Lord blessed me to develop and learn more depth of study and the significance of apostolic instruction. I’d also like to acknowledge the continued care and friendship of several brethren, and appreciate academic enhancement gained through certain biblical courses, along with the opportunity to interact with staff and students at a growing and devoted Christian Institution.
Love to all, Brian Manuel
