GOD’S HUNGER TEST INTRODUCTION: This book is especially written for those who have a hunger and thirst for the righteousness of GOD. How else would anyone expect to be “filled?” As explained by Jesus, we must really want more of His own Life. Nonetheless, it will be found to be challenging for: (1) The murmurers and the complainers, (2) The “born again” and “the still born,” (3) The enchanted and the misguided, (4) The haughty and the proud, (5) The bond and the free: and of course, (6) The humble and the meek. Few fully understand what it is that GOD has designed for them to enjoy, in their becoming one of His faithful sons or daughters. To experience living in two worlds, may be a vague statement to most. However, it was through the hope and prayer of the apostles, the depth and magnitude of this knowledge, was afforded GOD’S saints, in their sojourn on the earth. Even with Abraham and ‘the Patriarchs,’ after being brought into “The Promised Land,” they lived there and still felt as strangers. They remained in tents, not living in houses, because they were still looking for a city which had foundations, whose builder and maker is GOD. They knew what “Heavenly” meant, as a destination placed before them. Yet this was so, because of their own personal experiences, from the visions and revelations of

GOD’S will for His children. Being unselfish, it was common for them to translate their desires into prayer and faith. Their hearts were often found reaching out for others, who truly desired a deep knowledge of GOD, and His will for themselves. This book would help to convey the essence, of the magnitude of this fact. Here, you will find that there is a line of divide, which separates intellectualism from illumination, and “ease” from wisdom. The mandate of Heaven, is actually described as a deliberate drive, to educate all of humanity on the earth today. The encouragement found here, is to flee from “simplemindedness,” and embrace an unbiased gift from GOD above. In addition, the scripture alone is used to support the truth, which can only be found in and through Christ. This book is a reflection of a distinctive passion that lives and works in the heart of Ian A.E. Brown, apostle and senior elder of the local church called: “The JB Church,” in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. It was GOD’S will for this preacher, as a young man, to fully comprehend the possibilities of man’s ETERNAL RANKING. This was the sole purpose for the Lord giving him an out of body Heavenly visit in April 1994. His life, from then onwards, has not been the same. Glorifying the Lord alone, has marked his footsteps. Jesus must increase, and he must decrease. GOD’S HUNGER TEST, will be found by many to be a Godly designed tool, which does reach the recesses of many.

Many of these may be termed by some as, “the unreachable.” Truly, it leaves no ambiguity in the minds of readers, who specifically seek to ascertain the worth of words, inspired by the Holy Spirit. Furthermore, the inescapable values of the teachings of Jesus, are brought into the light of present-day realities. “Relevance” is aggressively challenged, to become Jesus’ teachings only. The manner of this wonderful unveiling, would do much more than simply whet your appetite, as you sit, pursue and sup with Jesus repeatedly. Few will be content with just reading a book such as this. They will definitely want to pass it on. This book is the first of a three-part sequel. The second is titled: “COMBATING VANITIES,” and the third: “THE ALPHA & OMEGA.” This particular segment, increasingly amplifies the basis for certain conclusions, which are upon the masses on the earth today. Those are the ones who have no confidence in the declaration which says: “There is certainly but ‘One Learned Way’ to be Saved.” When you have covered the material in this book, you would have then more easily discovered five specific points of value; which are: 1. Jesus described that our mission in life MUST first be tackled as a “TREASURE HUNT.” 2. “Spiritual Hunger” in men and women, is being fed from two dimensions. 3. Your “Full Potential” is part of a design plan of GOD,

which has been flawed by sin. 4. Man’s body structure-design is in the first of its two stages. 5. GOD’S method for preserving us while we are in the earth, is being “masked” by satan. So we, being GOD’S most unique of all species, His creation above all other creatures in the Heavens, and upon the earth; are now invited to dine. May the Lord specially grant, that you receive an abundant release to both hear and receive, His own words into your heart. May His voice be more profoundly distinguished in your hearing, as you discover and understand your own true value, which is in Christ, and in Him alone.
