Charles Sivley Jr.
Charles Sivley Jr. of Hildale, Utah, has now graduated into New Jerusalem as of December 19, 2023, to be with all the other sons of God celebrating in glory!
Charles was an outdoorsman to the greatest extent! He loved hiking and camping, and he also had a wealth of knowledge when it came to artifacts and petroglyphs such as Indian or Spanish. He could go on for hours talking about what he had learned from Spanish diaries and his archaeologist friends. He also loved to tinker on his muscle cars as well.
Charles was also a very witty man in his thought process. He amazed people with his ability to make something out of literally nothing. Often people would call him for advice on what they should do with what they had. He was such a selfless, laid-back funny guy, and he would cross an ocean to help someone if he could at all.
All this previous information set aside first and foremost Charles was an incredible man of God. To many, he was known as a “Walking Bible.” He was most certainly united in spirit with the Lord and was one with the Lord. (1 Corinthians 6:17) He had a passion and zeal to study the scriptures and rightly divide the truth of the Word of God, and he encouraged everyone who had ears to hear to do the same. He helped so many hurting people through all kinds of various problems, and he did it by and through the Word of God. But even now he would encourage everyone to get in the Word of God, be filled with the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fulfill the purpose and call-in which God has placed you here to do. He would often say, “You can do something for God that no one else can do.” He made such an impact on the hearts and lives of so many.
Every morning Charles would begin the first few hours of his day interceding on behalf of all those he loved, then of course he would continue in the Word of God.
Charles would have wanted everyone to celebrate and exalt God at this time! There are no words really to express the kind of man he was and the impact he had upon many people. Though we celebrate immensely for his eternal victory, many are finding there is a huge void in his absence. Charles would encourage you all to fill that void with God. “Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His godly ones.” Psalm 116:15
Charles was an amazing example of one would walk as Jesus walked, and was an epistle read and known by all men! As Charles would say, “Get into the Word of God, and allow the Word of God to get into you!”
We are grateful for the legacy that brother Charles has left us with, and we continue to believe his fruit shall remain! Glory!
