DEAR FELLOW-MEMBERS,

By the grace of God we are enabled to issue another volume of

The Berean Expositor and for this we are thankful. We have no

spiritual "gimmicks" to offer, only the faithful exposition of the

Word of God in all its fullness, keeping in mind the sacred deposit

of Truth first given through the Apostle Paul and preserved to us

We give our heartfelt thanks to all who have made this possible

not only in this country, but also abroad. We have the privilege of

being "fellow workers together", not only to make known the

gospel of God's grace, but also "to make all see what is the

dispensation of the Mystery (Secret) which from the beginning of

the world hath been hid in God" (Eph. 3: 9). May the Lord keep

us loyal and fruitful in this witness for Him. We go forward with

the assurance that His grace and strength are all-sufficient and that

He can and will give the "increase" which will be to His glory.
