Officials have drawn up a secret list of which miners should come out first, but the order could change after paramedics and a mining expert first descend in the capsule to evaluate the men. First out will be the four miners best able to handle any difficulties and tell their comrades what to expect. Then, the 10 who are weakest or suffer from hypertension, diabetes, dental and respiratory infections and skin lesions from the mine's oppressive humidity.

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
I just watched the first miner to come out of the capsule, what a miracle to see after 69 days in the earth.....he was a healthy man, hugging with his wife and son...praise God for his mercy and grace on all these men.....
Jimmy Sanchez, one of the 33 Chilean miners who have been trapped for over two months in the San Jose copper-gold mine in the Atacama Desert, would like to make one small correction to all the stories about life in the mine:
“There are actually 34 of us,” the nineteen-year-old miner wrote in a letter sent up from the mine on Tuesday, “because God has never left us down here.”
When I went to be there were 3 rescued. Ten more were rescued overnight. Praise the Lord!!!!

This quote by one of, if not the youngest miner, in the Chilean mine situation, is so PRO-
FOUND! It reminds me of the song about the Three Hebrew Children and the FOURTH MAN
in the fire! This young man is basically acknowledging GOD was with them!
I have been so touched by the mercy of our God in the rescue of these miners. They
don't speak my language, for the most part. Their skin is not the color of my skin, They
don't live in the country I live and was born. BUt I have felt such compassion for these
men and their families. I have wept and rejoiced as they came out one by one. I have
thanked God for His Mercy to these precious souls for whom Christ died! GOD IS NO
RESPECTOR of persons. Thank God for the wisdom and knowledge that HE has given
those who have aided in these rescues. Before the first rescue I prayed, "LORD, let
everyone of those men be rescued, in Jesus Name".
Wondering why, LORD, do I feel such compassion for these men and their families! I
believe HE let me know that it was HIS LOVE shed abroad in my heart by the HOLY GHOST!
