January 2004 – God's
Voice Worldwide – From Dr. Mark Virkler Author of Communion With God and President of Christian Leadership University Vision: To Saturate the World with Communion With God This newsletter contains: Lamad Biblical Education Association; Journaling from a CLU Student; Start Your January Exercise Program; Attend an Upcoming Seminar Free; Student Testimonies; New Telugu Translation Posted Detailed Definition of the Lamad Educational Style – The Jesus Style of Learning! A fresh moving of the Holy Spirit has been upon the Church of Jesus Christ for the last 100 years, since the Azusa Street Revival in 1902. In all that time the Spirit-filled community of believers (now numbering 27% of all Christendom) had yet to delineate an approach to learning which restored the Holy Spirit to His rightful place as the primary Teacher in our midst. Now, the Lamad Biblical Education Association has completed this marvelous feat. After 20 years of careful examination of the teaching style found in Scripture, they present to you the “Lamad Educational Style” which was used not only by Jesus with His disciples, but is found throughout all of Scripture. You can apply this to your home groups, Sunday school classes, pulpit preaching, Bible school courses, and especially to the training of your own children in your home! The Lamad Biblical Education Association has not only prepared for you a 40-page introductory document on what the lamad educational style is, but they have provided courses which lead to Lamad Teacher Certification. Those who successfully complete 200+ hours of training in Lamad Educational Principles may receive certification as a Lamad Teacher. This certificate is suitable for framing and will let all who see it know that you have received training that has equipped you to release the anointing of the Holy Spirit as you teach, preach and train. We invite you to read this classic manuscript today! The restoration of the Lamad Educational Style is an earthquake in the field of education. Be one of the first to catch hold of this new Spirit-filled style of training. And if you have already been relying on the Holy Spirit as you teach, learn how you can deepen your dependence upon Him as you press forward in your call to disciple all nations. Please download and tell your friends about this wonderful, practical, Scriptural book on the Lamad Educational Style (www.cwgministries.org/freebooks). Help us change the world by re-implementing a biblical style of learning. Journaling from a CLU Student – Mike Bastien “Lord, what do You want to speak to me concerning Your being my life? What does that mean practically?” Reply: “My greatest desire is to see My children come into a place of complete rest in Me. This is mentioned in My Word over and over, and yet most of My children continue to strive and resolve within themselves to live and do better. “I desire to see each one of My children truly enter this place of rest, where there is a complete ceasing from their own strivings, efforts and self-determinations. This place is a place where self is no longer asserting itself, a place where it is no longer the determinations of the will, no longer the efforts of well-meaning intentions, but simply a place of utter abandonment to Me and to My life within. A place where there is such a trust and reliance on the divine flow and power of My resurrection life within that I said would flow like rivers out of your innermost parts. “The great cry for today is to do, to try harder, to live holier lives, to press in, and all those are worthy and good intentions. Yet, when they are not done solely out of My life and divine enabling, it produces greater bondage and greater condemnation in the hearts of My children. “I am your very life. I am everything that you need. I know you know these words, and you have quoted them many times, but the truth and the reality of these words are still not deeply ingrained in your spirit. It is coming. Rest assured. I know the way. “It means a daily, and constant choosing to draw on Me. At the very moment of temptation or weakness, you must cease your striving and effort to conquer and simply tune and turn in to My vast supply that I have for you. Resurrection power and life abide within you: the same resurrection and power that raised up the Lord Jesus out of the grave and the lower parts of the earth. “It's a refusal to turn to yourself, a determined choosing not to allow yourself to be drawn into the web of religious striving and effort that will certainly only produce failure and death. It is a realization that of yourself you can do nothing. Out of that you will truly be able to turn to Me and to draw upon the rich resources that I have. When it is My power and My Spirit, you will experience overcoming life and an abundant living that you have desired for so long. “You have seen this from afar off for many years and you have desired this and have yearned for it. This has been My doing and My wooing within you. I will see to it that you come fully to Me and to My rest and out of that you will do greater, much greater things than you have ever done, by far. “The life that you will then live will truly be that of the Son of God, it will not be your life through His, but His life through yours. The treasure coming through a surrendered and yielded vessel. You are simply a vessel. I am the life and the glory that will come forth. “This is the great groaning of all creation, to see My glory through a yielded people. To see the life of the Son of God manifested in a many-membered body, the Body of Christ. This is how I have chosen to show My glory. Not through strong and able men and women, but through weak and yielded people. There is no other way. This is the way I have chosen. “Continue to call upon Me and continue to ask Me to be ever reminding you of this glorious revealing and how simple it really is. Christ in you, Christ through you.” Start Your January Exercise Program Now! The Doctor told me I should start an exercise program. Not wanting to harm this older body, I've devised the following:

Go Natural Testimony – Jan Siemens (Canada) “My life has completely changed since I have taken the Go Natural course. I have learned so many things about my body and how it works. It was very exciting to hear about the Genesis diet and how it keeps me healthy. I learned a lot about vitamins and minerals, also about herbs and how to use them correctly. I never believed in taking vitamins or minerals, but now that I know the truth, it is a different story. “I never knew how important it was to drink pure water. I learned how to secure a water purification system. I never realized how uneducated I really was about my health. I thought that 'what you don't know won't hurt you,' but that is a lie from the pit of hell. I was never taught about superfoods or antioxidants or what they were and how they work. “I knew absolutely nothing about tissue cleansing, or much about fasting. I read Lee Bueno-Aguer's book Fast Your Way to Health. Wow, what a fantastic book! I learned so much from her testimony. I am now fasting at least once or twice a week. I feel the benefits. “I really enjoyed the class presentations from all the students. They were so informative. When I learned about exercising and all its benefits, I was stopped cold in my tracks. Exercising was not even in my vocabulary except the occasional walk with my husband. Now I have joined a gym and have my own personal trainer and am exercising correctly three times a week. “I have finally come to a place in my life that I want to and must change my lifestyle. I am finally going to be the only one responsible for my own health. Thank you, Mark, for listening to the Holy Spirit and passing this on to us. It has totally changed my life and possibly will save me a lot of pain. Praise be to God.” Testimony – Dr. Karen Leininger “When praying and searching for a university through which I could earn a Master's Degree in counseling, God led me to CLU. After reading through the catalog, I knew this university and the Lamad style of learning was going to be different from any other university I had attended. I was tired of simply memorizing facts. I wanted courses that would heal my own life before I tried to counsel others. I wanted and needed biblically sound courses through which the Holy Spirit would be my Teacher, Healer, Deliverer, and Guide. “Through these anointed courses, I have experienced healing. My life has been changed. The Holy Spirit has corrected erroneous teachings which I had learned through religion. My Heavenly Father, instead of being Someone Who was ready to beat me over the head every time I made a mistake, has been revealed to me as loving, kind, just, ever-present, a pure Gentleman, my Provider, my Healer, and much more -- my All in all! “Not only have I completed my Master's in Counseling, but also a Ph.D. in Ministry and have become a part of CLU as an instructor/advisor for graduate students. As a retired Junior High and High School teacher, I can honestly say that learning and instructing by the Lamad method is the best educational and ongoing life experience I've ever had!” New Telugu Translation Posted – Please spread the word to your friends in India!
