The C. O. Stadsklev Collection Updated 12/24/08 If you have studied the biography of Pastor Sheldon Emry and other ministers of his era, you are aware that some of them were exposed to and called into the Kingdom Ministry by the preaching of Pastor C. O. Stadsklev. From a small church, "The Gospel Temple," in Minnetonka Mills, Minnesota, Pastor Stadsklev began using the printed word and radio to spread the Identity message across America. As God directed, Pastor Emry continued to grow in knowledge and wisdom. It was only a matter of time before differences came between them, and Pastor Emry chose to separate from Pastor Stadsklev and continue on his own. While not presented as definitive doctrine, we feel that some of the works of C. O. Stadsklev, because of the historical significance, belong in this library. During the growth of the Kingdom Ministry, the baton was passed from generation to generation. In this process, new truths were discovered by the insightfulness of a select few ministers and teachers such as Pastor Sheldon Emry and Ben Williams. All too many ministries become "stuck" on a plateau, refuse to advance, and prefer to attack the one they should be listening to. Again, we wish to emphasize that some of C. O. Stadsklev's material is presented only to illuminate one of the stepping stones used by God to launch men like Pastor Sheldon Emry to advance the Kingdom Ministry.
