September, 2025
Dear Friends,
The wisdom of this world has completely pervaded everywhere including the church today. We are constantly being bombarded with the world`s viewpoint on the internet and in every form of the media. Scripture is not accepted for what it plainly says. The above scripture is a great example of this modern trend continuing from the original, “Yea, hath God said” of Satan in the Garden of Eden. We are told that “rod” really does not mean a rod and “beat” really does not mean beat and this verse has nothing to do with spanking, as the church tries to reconcile Godless psychology with Christianity.

As was promised in the last prayer letter, we will discuss the other articles, besides the ones about President Trump and Anita Bryant, which were in our last issue of “The Fundamentalist” that we sent out all over Brazil. The articles were:
Man and Woman – An article by Moises Moreira Lopes, who came to the last ICCC Congress in Collingswood. It discusses the differences between men and women, which the world is trying to erase today. We appended quotes affirming these differences, even by famous secular people of today like Danica Patrick (famous Brazilian sports figure) and Anthony Mackie (Captain America).
Music in the Life of the Christian and of the Church- This is a Portuguese translation of the statement on music adopted at the last ICCC Congress.
Congress of ALADIC – This is a report, written by Osmar Sanches who attended the Congress in February 2025, complete with a picture of the officers of ALADIC (Latin American Alliance of Christian Churches).
Making to Cease the Offense of the Cross – An article by Thomas Scott (1747-1821), the famous commentator on the scriptures, who speaks about problems in his day that are very applicable to our current time.
What do You Expect Today? – This is the article on the back cover, which is the page that is clearly visible in the mailing (pictured right). It is a message that Ken gave at Faith Presbytery, maintaining that: 1) We are in the last days as is evidenced by the Jewish nation in Israel. 2) The world today fits perfectly with the last days. 3) The church today fits perfectly with the last days with professing Christians not enduring sound doctrine.

Ken continues to be a “circuit preacher” with the churches of Marcus Hook, Kingsville, and Collingswood. He is currently preaching a series on II Kings, Revelation, and I Corinthians. We are also continuing our door-to-door tract ministries in Kingsville and Marcus Hook, weather permitting. Faith Presbytery will hold its fall meeting, on September 26, in Kingsville.
We traveled to Florida the past July, for the birth of our newest grandchild, Eleana, born to our son Mark and his wife Lydia. Pictured left is Ken holding Eleana. At home, Ken continues to battle the “deep state” on the city council in our small town of Smyrna. Progress is being made with preparations for the ICCC Congress in Kenya in July of next year.
As always, we do thank you again for all your prayers and support.
In His service,
Ken and Ira Olson
