  • God’s Purposes Revealed By Inspiration – Part 1

    MID-WEEK MANNA FROM PASTOR NAT’S DESK:

    May 21, 2025

    God’s Purposes Revealed By Inspiration – Part 1

    GOD’S PURPOSE REVEALED TO THE TRUTH-SEEKER

    We start this series with the word, purpose, as initially laid out in just a couple of sample verses. 

    But first let all earnestly pray to be “one in spirit and in one accord,” united by the Holy Spirit in a genuine desire to know the purposes of the Desire of Ages, God in Christ Jesus Himself, in order to do His will by fulfilling our part intelligently, spiritually, voluntarily, I willingly, and uncompromisingly—all by the “constraint of love” “because He first loved us,” and “died for us even while we were yet sinners.”

    Hereunder are the sample scriptures I have selected from the Authorized Version (KJV) Carefully consider the context. 

         “Every purpose is established by counsel:. . . Prov. 20:18.

         “To everything there is a reason, and a time to every purpose under heaven.” Eccl. 3:1.

          “And I said in mind heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.” Eccl. 3:17. 

         “Where the word of the King is, there is power: and who may say unto Him, What doest thou? Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man’s heart discerneth both time and judgment. Because to every purpose there is time and judgment, therefore the misery of man is great upon him.”  Eccl. 8:4-6. 

         “This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all nations. For the Lord of hosts  hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?” Isa. 14:26, 27. 

    Contemplate, ponder, and “think on these things” for “there is virtue and praise in them.”

  • The Fruit of the Holy Spirit (Last Part) 

    MID-WEEK MANNA FROM PASTOR NAT’S DESK:

    May 14, 2025

    The Fruit of the Holy Spirit (Last Part) 

    This concludes, but by no means exhausts the “exceeding abundance” of glorious spiritual light of truth embodied in this subject. 

    When spiritually discerned and thusly studied and personally appropriated, it cannot but glorify and magnify Jesus Christ, the Living Vine from whose “branches”— His true and faithful followers who are vitally, not superficially connected to Him, bear or manifest His character attributes, termed “fruits.” 

    This is the “word of their testimony” that they have “presented their bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is a reasonable service” (Rom. 12:1). Though still finite and mortal in nature with yet corruptible physical bodies, they willingly, intellectually, spiritually, and literally have consecrated their bodies to become full-time, sanctified TEMPLES where God in Christ through the Holy Spirit dwells on earth. See 1 Cor. 3: 16, 17; 6: 19, 20. 

    They unquestioningly and faithfully follow this specific divine instructions: “Having therefore these promises, let us cleanse ourselves of all filthiness of flesh and the spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.” (2 Cor. 7:1).

    Carefully read for yourselves the whole chapter of John 15. Here, in simplicity, accuracy, and purify, where bearing His fruits are concerned, “Without Me ye can do nothing.” In short, “By their fruits ye shall know them.” By the “fruits” we bear in our lives and character we unconsciously reveal “to the world, men, and angels” whether Jesus through the Holy Spirit, truly abides/dwells in us “in spirit and in truth.” 

    God’s servant-messenger wrote and I quote (all emphasis and bracketed words mine):

        “‘I am the Vine, ye are the branches. Can we conceive of a MORE INTIMATE RELATION to Jesus than this? The fibers of end branch are almost identical with those of the vine. The communication of life, strength, and FRUITFULNESS from the trunk to the branches is UNOBSTRUCTED AND CONSTANT. The root sends its nourishment through the branch .

        “Such is the TRUE BELIEVER’S RELATION TO CHRIST. He abides IN Christ, and draws his NOURISHMENT from Him. This spiritual relation can be established ONLY by the exercise of personal faith. [‘salvation is individual; not corporate or institutional]. This faith must express on our part SUPREME PREFERENCE, PERFECT RELIANCE, ENTIRE CONSECRATION [of the mind, heart, body, soul, and spirit.].   

         “Our WILL must be wholly yielded fo the divine will, our FEELINGS, DESIRES, INTERESTS, and HONOR, identified with the prosperity of Christ’s kingdom and the honor of His cause, we constantly receiving grace from Him, and Christ accepting gratitude from us. . . . 

        “If was when Christ was about to take leave of His disciples [and ascend to the Father] that He have them the beautiful emblem of His relation to believers [Vine-branch]. A union with Christ by living faith is enduring [as in the ‘patience of the saints.” ]. Every other union must PERISH. The true believer chooses Christ as FIRST AND LAST, and BEST in everything.”

    E. G. White, My Life Today (devotional), p. 11).
