"We have to have sonship first to have brotherhood"

with contributions from Ronald Haynes

Last week's Sentinel included part one of an interview with Rev. Ronald Haynes of the Word of Life Fellowship Church, Alton, Illinois. Rev. Mr. Haynes spoke of Christian healing, his ministry to inner-city youths, and the role of prayer in keeping one's life aligned with God's will.

The following segment concludes this two-part interview which Rev. Mr. Haynes so graciously granted to the Sentinel. We appreciate his willingness to join the many clergymen whose experiences and Christian insights have enriched the pages of the Sentinel since its founding nearly a century ago.

A friend from Atlanta, Georgia, invited me and an evangelist friend of mine from Los Angeles, California, to go to Nigeria. This was at the invitation of a pastor in Lagos who wanted some American ministers, and particularly African-American ministers, to come and teach about rising above poverty through Biblical principles. He has close to eight thousand church members.
