                   Keith understood that this divine message was clearly
            illustrated in the teachings of the BFG Handbook. The handbook
            encapsulates the essence of this revelation, offering a guide to the
            spiritual renewal that God has promised. Recognizing the
            importance of this message, Keith felt compelled to share it with
            Bishop Kevin W. Vann.

                   In recognition of this profound divine revelation, Keith
            presented Bishop Kevin W. Vann with a copy of his BFG Handbook
            as a powerful symbol of God's guidance and the initiation of a new
            era in evangelization. This gesture was not merely ceremonial but
            carried deep spiritual significance, marking the commencement of a
            transformative period dedicated to spreading the Gospel in a new
            way and renewing faith across the world. Keith hoped that the BFG
            Handbook would serve as a crucial tool in this spiritual revival,
            encapsulating and transmitting the truth that God had revealed to
            him.

                   The importance of this act is eloquently captured by
            Ezekiel 17:8: “It was planted in good soil beside abundant waters
            so that it would produce branches and bear fruit, and become a
            splendid vine.” This verse offers a vivid illustration of the teachings
            embedded in the BFG Handbook. It metaphorically represents that,
            like a tree planted in fertile soil by flowing waters, the principles and
            insights in the handbook are meant to nourish and cultivate spiritual
            growth. Just as trees drawing sustenance from rivers can thrive and
            produce fruit, the teachings of the BFG Handbook are designed to
            provide spiritual nourishment, fostering renewal and strength in the
            faith of individuals.
