Jerry Newman

FROM THE BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY OF PRIMITIVE OR OLD SCHOOL BAPTIST MINISTERS BY DAVID MONTGOMERY AND MARK GREEN:

ELDER JERRY NEWMAN

FROM A MEMORIAL IN THE 1995MINUTES OF THE FIRST PRIMITIVEBAPTIST ASSOCIATION OF OKLAHOMA:

Elder Jerry Ewell Newman was ordained tothe full work of the ministry in 1956 by hishome church, Pilgrims Rest in Duncan,Okla., where he served as pastor for 30 years until his death. Bethlehem Church at Purcell had been blessed with his service for 40 years. He had also served Walnut ValleyChurch in Ada, Bethlehem Church inOklahoma City, and Pleasant View at Amber.

Elder Newman was a humble man, realizing that all good things come from above. Maybe he was quoting someone else when he once said, "It's all right to tell a preacher he is great if he just doesn't believe it! "When asked once if he had written down an account of his experiences,he said, "Oh, some of them." Then he indicated a reader's time would be better spent reading the apostles' experiences. But Elder Newman's greatest delight was preaching or listening to others preach the unsearchable riches of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was knowledgeable in the Scriptures and was blessed with wisdom and grace to preach them. But he knew the old, old story could never be told in full until we see our Savior face to face.
