Dear Davis,
Glorious Gospel Magazine is a special tool to us here. I have two separate Ministers training conferences this month of March that I will be sharing copies of the Magazine.
Postal system in this country is something else. They wanted to extort money from me and I refused, I didn’t know they will return the parcel. I am so sorry for the inconveniences it has cost you. I promise it will not repeat again.
Thanks for your understanding. Izuka Elkanah O. Umuahia, Abia State, Nigeria, W Africa

Dearly Beloved,
Greetings to you in the name of our Resurrected Lord Jesus - what a great joy that our Lord Jesus is alive. 1 Corinthians 15: 20 says, “But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the first-fruits of those who have fallen asleep.” Jesus was crucified, died and was buried but, Hallelujah, He rose from the dead. That is the story of gospel - the three basic facts. These are not doctrines, these are not philosophies, these are not ideas that men have. These are simple, but hard facts that occurred in the history that cannot be eliminated, these facts have changed the history of the world. 1 Corinthians 15: 1-11 says, First, Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures. Jesus died as substitute in our place, for our sins. Christ bore in His body, our sins, our curse and our unbelief. He died in the place of a sinner. Many men have died as martyrs for good causes, but only one Man, Jesus Christ, died for sinners. Second, He was buried in a tomb and it was that dead body that rose from the grave alive again. His tomb is still empty. For two thousand years, infidels and atheists have been trying to explain the empty tomb and none of their explanations are valid. Third, He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures. Paul in II Corinthians 15: 5-8 gives eye witness evidences that the resurrection of Christ actually happened. First, He appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve after which He appeared to more than five hundred brothers at the same time. Then He appeared to James, last of all He appeared to Paul as well. Though Paul was a persecutor of believers, though he was not worthy of salvation or apostleship, though he deserved nothing but hell, it was the grace of God that that saved him. Paul did not choose God but God sought him and chose him for salvation and service. He made him the greatest apostle of all time. It is because of grace - God’s amazing grace. As people saved by grace, let us not keep silent, but let us proclaim this good news of resurrection of Jesus to every one and pray that they should be saved.
The whole world is in panic and fear because of the Corona Virus threat. Let us pray that God in His mercy would forgive the iniquities of the people and save mankind from all calamities. John 14:6, “Jesus (said), “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (NIV)
Yours in His service, Team Uppahar and Rajat Kumar Pani, Orrissa, India
