Language English

How can we live by the Word of God? How can we spend time with God and why is spending that time so important? What emphasis did Jesus place on knowing and understanding scripture while He was here on earth? How can we make God our teacher when we study the Bible? How can music help us commit to memory what God says in His Word?

Job: The Great Controversy

What can we learn about the unseen realm from the story of Job? What is the relationship between what goes on in heaven and what happens here on earth? What can we learn about the war between good and evil? Why did God defend Job against Satan? Who is God as a person? Can we trust God? Why didn’t God destroy the devil right away? What can we know about the Great Controversy from the Bible? What is the mystery of lawlessness? How did Jesus redeem humanity and vindicate the character of God? Why is God on trial?

God's Character

This week we study the essence of the Great Controversy over God's character. Why is God on trial? Why does God need to vindicate His character to anyone? What were Satan's lies about God and how has God chosen to respond? God created beings that are free moral agents. What does this say about His government as king of the Universe? Can there truly be a merger of justice and love? If God was only love, or only justice, what would that mean for us?

Lost Day Of History

The Bible teaches about a day lost in history. A day God designed for us to remember. This week's lesson uncovers the mystery of this forgotten and lost day.

Walk Humbly

Yes, life challenges will test our patience. There may be challenges in your home, your marriage, your job, and even your church that seem more than you are willing to cope with. Be reminded that the race is not for the swift, nor the battle for the strong, but for those who endure. Remember, the humble calf sucks the most milk. Patience is a virtue – a rare one. This fruit of the Spirit is a quality we all need.

Seals and Marks (Q & A)

With so much speculation about the Mark of the Beast, I’ve come across differing opinions as to what this mark actually means and what it will be. Some of the most common views are that the mark is a computer chip, a physical mark, or a tattoo placed in either the hand or the forehead. However, does this viewpoint really coincide with what the Bible teaches? When one looks up the word used for “mark” in “Mark of the Beast” many feel that it must be a tattoo and argue that the Bible teaches and warns us against piercings. While it is indeed true that Christians should not tattoo themselves, the Mark of the Beast is more complicated than a tattoo. The following is evidence that suggests why the Mark of the Beast could not be a physical mark, though physical marks may or may not be used in support of the authentic Mark of the Beast.

We Wish To See Jesus

am reminded of other instances when persons from foreign lands came to God’s people desiring to learn more about Him but were deprived. King Hezekiah had visitors from Babylon. Instead of showing them the God of Heaven, who delivered him from his enemies, he showed them the riches of Israel. Perhaps in a bragging attitude, he showed them everything in his house. He got the opportunity to introduce God to these people; but instead, he showed them material wealth.
