EGYPT’S HATRED TOWARDS THE SABBATH

June 2, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

EGYPT’S HATRED TOWARDS THE SABBATH See Exodus 5: 4-14.

Long before the Ten Commandments were written on two tables of stone by the Creator’s own finger and given to Moses atop Mt. Sinai, the Sabbath day observance and worship was already a point controversy even while Israel was still slaves in Egypt— the first atheistic empire!

Moses and Aaron tried to teach the Israelites to observe the Sabbath day in Egypt. But resting on the Sabbath angered the pharaoh and he issued a DECREE that made Sabbath-keeping impossible in Egypt.

THE LAW WRITTEN IN THE HEART BEFORE IT WAS WRITTEN ON STONE

May 28, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

THE LAW WRITTEN IN THE HEART BEFORE IT WAS WRITTEN ON STONE

Christ the Creator and Lawgiver wrote the law in the hearts and minds of Adam and Eve in their creation as the crowning act of His creative power.

“Adam and Eve, at their creation, had a knowledge of the law of God; they were acquainted with its claims upon them; its precepts were written upon their hearts.”

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

May 25, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

See Exodus 20 : 8-11. And God said: “Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a SIGN between them and Me, that they might know that I SANCTIFY them.” Ezekiel 20 : 12 (See verse 20).

To the remnant who are faithfully keeping the commandments of God and overcoming their transgressions of God’s Law by grace, the “sign,” which also means “mark,” or “seal” has already been “written” in their mind, because it has already been committed to memory.

THE MANY “OTHER GODS” OF THIS WORLD

May 17, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:
THE MANY “OTHER GODS” OF THIS WORLD

“Thou shalt have no other gods before Me.” Many do not realize that they are actually worshiping “other gods.” The work of the Holy Spirit is to change our carnal minds and hearts, which “are at enmity towards the law” into a new heart and a new mind having a new spirit in order to seek after, grasp, understand and love the wisdom of God, truth and righteousness.

Satan, in disguise, promised the mother of mankind that in disobedience she would “become like gods.” She yielded to this self-pleasing, self-exalting temptation by Lucifer, himself fallen to become Satan through his pride and exaltation, and fell.

CHRIST THE LAW-GIVER MAGNIFIES HIS LAW IN HIS GOSPEL

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

CHRIST THE LAW-GIVER MAGNIFIES HIS LAW IN HIS GOSPEL

“The Lord is well pleased for His righteousness’ sake; He will magnify His law and make it honorable.” Isa.42:21.

The gospel-prophet prophesied that central to Christ’s mission and work on earth as the Messiah, was to magnify His law that was transgressed by His backsliding people, trampled upon by apostates and corrupted by the wicked.

How did God give His law? Only after the grand and awful preparation for it, in silence.

MT. SINAI’S TERRORS REPRESENT THE SCENES OF JUDGMENT

May 11, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

MT. SINAI’S TERRORS REPRESENT THE SCENES OF JUDGMENT

Mankind fears not what they should and fears what they should not. See Exodus chapter 19 leading to the giving of the law in chapter 20.

Instead of “fearing God and giving glory to Him for the hour of His Judgment has come,” they continue to brazenly transgress and trample upon His law by which the world, globally, is, and will be judged. Notice the relationship of Sinai and the Judgment—it is infinitely more fearful than this covid-19 pandemic:

HOW GOD HEARS, FORGIVES & HEALS

“If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 2 Chron. 7:14, KJV.

Isn’t this one of the answers to the question all are asking today? How will we and “the land be healed” from this covid-19 plague-like scourge!
