AS THE COVID-19 CRISIS IS A GLOBAL ISSUE OF CONCERN SO WILL THE FINAL CRISIS.

April 1, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

AS THE COVID-19 CRISIS IS A GLOBAL ISSUE OF CONCERN SO WILL THE FINAL CRISIS.

“We are to be put on view to the world, and to angels, and to men.” 1 Cor.4:9, Bible in Basic English.

There is a difference between “cure” and “solution” in the present context of this Covid-19 pandemic. If a cure is not quickly found but instead more calamities follow in its train, prophecy tells us what happens next: the final blame game is resorted to by those who themselves are responsible for causing them— as in the time of apostate king Ahab and Elijah. The ones who will be blamed are those faithful to God’s law, the Bible Sabbath in particular.

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEIT FAITH

November 13, 2019

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEIT FAITH.

“Keep back Thy servant from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, I shall be innocent of great transgression.” Psalms 19:13.

“Faith is in no sense allied to presumption. Only he who has true faith is secure against presumption. Faith claims God’s promises, and brings forth fruit in obedience. Presumption also claims the promises, but uses them as Satan did, to excuse transgression. Faith would have led our first parents to trust the love of God, and to obey His commands.
