Dave Hunt from afar

It is a great honor of mine to find this and express my gratitude for Dave Hunt and his wife.  I have never personally known them, I found Dave Hunt online as I am a diligent Bible student and truth seeker and truth lover.  I remember the first time I heard Dave Hunt speak on youtube, I knew this man was different from all other Bible speakers and preachers. He spoke with such passion and grace, he spoke as if he wanted to get through people's minds and open their hearts to the Lord of Truth! His strong voice never faded, it always continued.  My favorite sermon Dave Hunt preached was on the "Reformation", back in 1987 or 1989 (according to youtube).  This lecture, sermon allowed me to hear what true Christians should preach about and reveal to unbelievers.  Dave Hunt would continuously remind his audience to know why you believe what you believe.  Why are you Christian? Why do you believe the Bible is God's Word? Why? These questions are so important in today's world, we live in an age where information is vast and quick and present, knowing the Lord in a personal and yet logical way through prophecies, through His word and truth are what's going to keep His people strong in the faith, no matter the opposition, knowing the Lord as He deserves to be known allows His people to turn the world upside down again.
I have also heard his numerous debates with false religions, his background knowledge and responses have helped me prepare myself for something similar, Lord willing.  I believe every true Christian should go and listen to all his lectures as I continuously do and read his books as I also do, if we are to call ourselves true Christians.  Dave Hunt definitely challenged modern Christianity. Not only has he shared and greatly informed us but also gave us a reason to be proud to be Christians in today's society.  Too many weak Christians are considered everything but godly, intelligent, practical, strong in the faith, Bereans, etc.  But Dave Hunt continued to be prime example of a true follower of Jesus Christ.  Of course this would not have happened without his beautiful wife, Ruth Hunt.  I would find it very difficult for Dave Hunt to have done what he has done without his wife. I remember listening to a lecture from the Berean Call Conference in 2008 (according to youtube), and how he express his love for his dear wife.  I am certain they were and are a grand example to all Christian married couples, to seek the Lord, to seek His word and to preach the gospel to all nations.
Although I have never met them personally, I look forward to meeting them in the last day!  May the Lord bless and comfort those who know them, family and friends and all. Please know it is our duty to continue in the work in the Lord.
