Book and Lyrics by Doug Stewart<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Music by Lex de Azevedo<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

While God\u2019s kingdom has been established on the earth in times past \u2026
\nThis time is different.<\/strong>
\nThe prophetic promise is that this time God\u2019s kingdom will not be lost but will overcome the world.
\nThe final restoration of God\u2019s kingdom has commenced with unprecedented power and is being sustained by that same spiritual power and something more \u2026<\/p>\n

Reserved to come forth in these last days and labor for our Father and His Son are some of the most valiant and noble of our Father\u2019s sons and daughters.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

…you are these valiant and noble souls of our Father! You are the strength of the Lord\u2019s house, His warriors! And because of your personal history, you were entrusted to come to the earth in these last days to do again what you did before —
\n— to once again choose good over evil, exercise exceedingly great faith, and perform good works —
\nand to do so in behalf of the kingdom of God on the earth and your fellowman!<\/p>\n

It is our sacred responsibility as parents and leaders of this rising generation to bring them to the Savior.<\/p>\n

While some of the doctrinal approaches found in Saturday\u2019s Warrior have been questioned, the power of the message, the truth of testimony shared — of family unity, of a Savior who loves us and wants us with Him again — is undeniable. The show is an icon.\u00a0 It is a powerful testimony-starter for those new to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is a unique and compelling testimony-maintainer for any who just need a boost; and for those who may have temporarily lost their way, like Jimmy Flinders, it is moving and persuasive in showing an individual\u2019s worth to God, and a way back to him through a family and belief and Faith in the Son of God, Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
