“Fight the good fight of trusting Creator. Get a firm hold on the life of the world to come that never fades away, full of beauty and harmony. The Great Spirit called you to this life when you said yes to Him and made it known before many people that you had chosen to walk the good road with Creator Sets Free (Jesus) the Chosen One.”
