DEJIAO Spreading the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ:
From the earliest times, messengers from God have walked among men.
Teaching, guiding, sacrificing for men with the hope men will walk the path of God.
Man has often strayed or forgotten the teachings and sometimes choose to disbelieve.
But always then and now, the Truth is revealed again and again to those who sincerely seek.
Praise the Lord, For He is Merciful.
The LORD is Love.
I am only a shepherd (368 -T)
