Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
“I felt most intensely upon some points, especially the inauguration of Christ, on the banks of Jordan, to His appointed work. The dedication of Christ was not to be mingled with any human agency. What an event was this—Christ entering upon His work with the seal of divinity upon Him! The baptismal scene at the hand of John was followed by Jesus walking out of the water and offering His prayer to His Father. The heavens were opened and the Spirit descended upon Him, assuming the form of a dove, in appearance like burnished gold; and the voice of the Father was heard in recognition of the offering of Christ to God: “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:17.” Ms52-1890.3

Acts 8:34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
Acts 8:35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.

Shalom brother Daniel. Praise be to Almighty GOD through HIS Holy Son JESUS, for working a wonderful ministry in you [Christ in you]. The Pen of Inspiration tells us, though the Movement might appear to be fallen; Yet as in the militant state, and as we understand it will be the triumphant Church, we as the people of The Book are to be still. And as Christ leads His Church through all trials, times of trouble, and terrible times to come, I continually keep in prayer for The LORD God’s blessings to go through tribulation as powerful overcomes. For it is a promise blessed upon our forefathers: Abraham, Isaac, Israel, and their succeeding generations. I also pray for our LORD’s shield and hedge round about His Remnant, called, chosen, and faithfu, aalong with their families. May GOD our FATHER continue to pour out His blessings on all Christ JESUS’ Ministries in proclaiming “The 3 Angels Messages” and finishing a work. This, with the guidance and ministration of our LORD God’s Heavenly angels protecting us.
Praise God! \0/
Shalom brother Daniel. Can we say, “Righteously ordained,” as opposed to inaugurated? No unwholesome intent meant, just asking🙏🏽
I would be okay with those words. EGW, someone I highly respect, has used the word “inaugurated” quite often, so I too use that word. Blessings!
