I pray that the Lord of the Harvest would raise up more labourers for His harvest. It is only to be expected that the world treats Christians as they do, they hated Jesus and hate us too. That my brothers entered into His presence to hear, "Well done, my good and faithful servant, enter in to the joy of the Lord" is a thing for us to rejoice in. My prayers go to their family and friends. We often hear how someone died “doing what they loved,” these two brothers of mine died “proclaiming the one they loved.”

We don't know if they were killed for thier faith or not. The report did discuss all the run-ins Ocean had with the law though. You nevver know, Ocean may have been paid back for something that he did in his sinful days and unfortunely Sufra just happened to be in the in the wrong place at the wrong time. I mean it's a horrible thing that happened no matter what Ocean did back in the day, and I pray that they are at peace in heaven. God bless these young man for truly following the word of God.

I was reminded of the bk of Rev., the great multitude which these five hundred and also these two young men and countless others are and will be a part of, asking the Lord when would he avenge them, and we both know he most definetly will avenge them "for vengence is mine sayeth the LORD." But I received a burden from the Lord, reminding me of the individuals' who took part in both incidents, you and I both know, "you reap what you sow" and God watches over his Word to perform in both "positive" and "negative" circumstances. But God, who is "rich in mercy" and oh how unsearchable are his ways, can take the individuals' who committed these heinous crimes and turn them into "warriors" for his Kingdom." I was suddenly overcome by this perspective, it may not be a popular one, but it is of God. For we must remember a young pharisee, who stood by and watched the brutal slaying of Stephen, and then went on a crusade himself, tormenting the people of God, but praise be to God, "whats impossible w/man is not impossible w/God", took this young man, after his Damacus road experience, and turned him into what many consider to be the greatest Preacher/Missionary that has every lived. It is my prayer that these individuals, though they must reap what they've sowed, will also have an experience that will lead them to Christ and like Paul have the "scales. Pastor Foster,

These men were doing some good for their community. Evangelizing the gospel so others will have eternal life. What is our world and in particular the black community coming to? Very sad!
