Goodbye Falwell

In the tribute and funeral for Brother Jerry Falwell,

"'Vines noted that Falwell knew the 'will of God, the work of God and the welcome of God,' and that Falwell had a 'three-fold anointing of God.' One was as a prophet to the United States and 'not just some preacher who decided he would dabble into politics.'
Another role was as an educator, said Vines, who said he would belabor the well-known story of Liberty University, but invited everyone to 'look around.' The third role was as a pastor. 'God used this man to build a Gospel-preaching church. [Falwell] was a mega-church pastor before mega-churches were cool,' Vines said."

May God be with the Falwell and Liberty University Family during this time.
