About the author....
For a careful observer of the Apostolic spiritual revival taking place across the ancestral land of Ethiopia at the close of the second Millennium of the Christian era, there is a remarkable uniqueness of God's sovereign timing coii^l^d with yielded lives to become instrumental in the work of His king dom. ^.
One such life is Teklemariam Gezahagne, whose biography has been at tempted by Nona Freeman in "Unseen Hands", From the early days of his out standing ministry which shines out as a spiritual pioneer, the Bible prophe cies mentioning the land of Ethiopia considered by many historians in the past as an island of Christian faith are still a vibrant note in his soul and mind.
For this man, the claims of Christ and the assertions of His apostles as to His Deity and Godhead, he could not find their match in the Trinitarian sem inaries he attended in the country, in his preparatory years. But the God of the prophets and the apostles had a plan for His chosen vessel. When the Lord, in His grace, spoke to His thirsting servant saying clearly: "Peter is saved, Paul is saved, the apostles are saved, the way that brought them to salvation shall also lead you to eternal life...", it was an open door for an unprecedent ed harvest of souls into the kingdom, for the glory of God.
It didn't take much Hme before another revelation came to him - the bap tism in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. He saw Christ in a vision as he was contemplaHng this truth. His experience of being literally "swallowed up" in his vision into the body of Christ left him trem bling, but was a tremendous confirmation and powerful illustration of the biblical truth found in Galatians 3:27.
Since 1969, for. 30 years, the Bible writers' doc trine is spreading quickly in Ethiopia and today over one million souls are baptized in Jesus' Name and filled with the Holy Ghost.
