Definitive
Sanctification, A Divine Act by Dr. Mary Craig
May 15, 2022
We continue our series "The Benefits of Salvation"
by thinking about "Definitive Sanctification, a Divine Act." What does it mean to be declared holy, blameless,
and without reproach? Does it mean we can do whatever we want as believers because we are in Christ and His righteousness
is imputed to us? What does the Holy Spirit have to do with it? Of what benefit is it?

 The Gospel of Jesus Christ, Special Assignment 2022 by Dr. Mary Craig
Dear Friends,
When I was in Jerusalem in 2017, reviewing what I had planned to say at the World Camp for Jesus held at the International
Convention Center, the LORD made it clear that He was changing the message. The Word of God is not chained, and
the Gospel goes out, everywhere calling, everywhere bearing witness to the Truth. I was to bear witness to the
Gospel of Jesus Christ, and now in 2022, we continue to proclaim it, sowing the seed of the Word in the field of
the World.
Mary Craig Ministries is an international ministry, and we are seeking your participation in a global mission to
get the Gospel of Jesus Christ into the airways during the month of January. As many of you know Ephesians 6:10ff,
we wrestle against forces in the air. Then ground troops follow.
Attached is the Gospel of Jesus Christ as given to me in 2017 followed by this special assignment suggested instructions.
Yes, the Gospel goes out in our ministry work, but this is targeting the heavens in a move of the Holy Spirit to
bring in the elect worldwide.
We hope you will take part after you read more, attached. It will take around 15 minutes, maybe less.
We're open to feedback!
With you in Christ for the Gospel to go forth in His Name, by His grace, and for His glory,
Mary Craig, D. Min.

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to
this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business, and make a profit.” You
do not even know what will happen tomorrow! What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and
then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If
the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.”…
James 4:13-15.
For I am the Living God, Sovereign ruler over the nations.
I am holy and My Name is being profaned, taken in vain, as empty of power.
Am I weak? I am the Almighty God, the self-existent One,
infinite, eternal, and unchangeable in Being, wisdom, power, holiness, goodness, justice, and truth.
And I am coming in power. I lose no energy when I work.
I have all power. I see what is going on.
I am He who keeps you in safety. That safety is in Me.
Many search the Scriptures and they [the Scriptures] point to Me.
I call you to come to Me. I call you to repentance, to
believe, and to receive that you may be blessed with all that one has in Christ Jesus.
You will soon go to the Negev. Am I not He who parted
the waters that Israel could flee Egypt on dry land? I call you to flee Egypt. I call the region of the Negev to
remember the Covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; to remember that I am a covenant-keeping God and I keep My
Word.
I will make of the Negev a fruitful and fertile [a delightful]
land, with fruit that remains, plentiful and lovely. And the world will marvel as I multiply blessings. The land
is Mine, and I will do all My good pleasure.
You will go and I will bless. I will guard and protect
you. I will work wonderful things in your midst. You will praise Me. For I love you, saith the Lord.
Proverbs 27:1; Isaiah 30; Isaiah 32

The Barnabas Project Distribution Report December,
2021
COVID-19 has continued to try to stop and discourage
the work of the LORD, but it fails. Masks or no
masks, the Living God is never restricted as to fulfilling His purposes and plans. We leave the "how"
to Him. This time, through continued prayer and seeking God's guidance, He did direct our steps. Having been doing
this since 2003, we remained flexible to change as God led us.
We were not deterred, but determined. We persevered even as the Holy Spirit provided His preserving power. People
streamed in steadily though not in a deluge kind of way. The Lord prospered those who participated, either receiving
what was freely given or helping others find good things (since most of the donations we receive are new).
The purpose of the Barnabas Distribution Project
is to bless distressed communities in the South Florida area.
Since 2003, the Barnabas Project has held distributions from Fellsmere/Vero Beach to Florida City/Homestead and
west from Fort Lauderdale to Immokalee and Belle Glade as a demonstration of the free Grace and goodness of the
Living God in honor of His greatest gift, Jesus Christ. Our intent is that families might be encouraged and given
a little boost, a tangible expression of God's love, that they might have hope....
For we are his workmanship, created
in Christ Jesus unto good works,
Which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10 KJV

We were slim but strategic this time, and it took a determined an experienced team, all year collecting, Stephen
loading the truck, Jackie driving the truck, and members of MCM being on site. Much time and prayer went into this
"mission." Distribution day was the culmination of many people's efforts, from donating goods to sorting
and Stephen stacking, to meeting with donors like Lilliana, Wanda, Mary E., and Jim & Maureen to name a few
along with home ministry, and bunches of time before we had a settled location. David and Pastor Claudy helped
greatly as God guided our steps to His will. All this plus Publix!
Once again, Rev. Dr. Jacqueline Clanton agreed and purposed to have the
December distribution at New Bethel A.M.E. Church in Vero Beach (Gifford), Florida. Her determined perseverance
made all the difference as she drove from Port St. Lucie to Fort Lauderdale to rent a 16-foot Budget truck. I met
her there and then we drove to where we had stored at least 100 boxes of items, including clothing, toys, school
supplies, household items, linens, walking canes, and just all kinds of things. After Stephen loaded the truck,
Dr. Clanton headed to the church in Vero Beach. Helpers met her to offload the truck.
Saturday morning (Dec. 4), helpers came to set up the distribution. There
were fewer people, but all were experienced.
