GOD HATH SET SOME
IN THE CHURCH
IN THE CHURCH
By Ken Rueur of Burning Bush Crusades
"And God hath set some in the church,first
apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers,
after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps,
governments,diversities of tongues." (1 Cor.12:28)
Now I have been spoiled, as I have experienced
and partook of exactly this type of ministry and if I
may, I will Share it with you.
I have (in a churchy sense) loved the Lord all my life
but didn't serve him all the time but was always God
conscience.
In 1970 an Apostle/Evangelist named Max Solbrekken,
bought an older dance hall and turned it into The
Edmonton Revival Centre, on Nov. 11th, a wed. night
we went to our first meeting there. I had heard of
miracles and these tongues talkers but had never
experienced it.
Anyway, the presence of God was so strong that we
answered the alter call and I fell on my knees
and couldn't stop weeping. I remember Bro. Max
coming down from the platform and laying his hands
on me and praying.
I don't Remember what he said, but I do remember
the overwhelming love that saturated me and the
strong desire to read and study His word. For three
and a half years I couldn't stop reading every spare
moment I could create.
Not only was the Holy Spirit teaching me, but he
would confirm it through the multitudes if various
ministries that went through the Revival Centre. He
had services five nights a week and three on Sunday,
we never missed one.
Talk about converts, miracles signs and wonders and
Talk about converts, miracles signs and wonders and
hey were ALL tongues talkers (baptized in the Holy Ghost)
The main service was usually around two hours plus
and then the praise and worship would last one to one
and a half hours. This was old fashioned singing and
worship, no rock-n-roll or screaming demons.
Talk about 1Corinthians 12:28 being fulfilled, we had
no excuse but to grow. In my time with them there
were many disciples of Jesus that were sent out by Bro.
Max, including myself and are still going today.
This is what God intended for His church. Does the
average assembly measure up?
