We understand that sin is a debilitating aspect of the human existence. It takes us away from God in our thoughts and actions and separates us from Him. What is perhaps less obvious is that sin is toxic, and it impacts many around us when we choose that pathway. This Sermonette will cover Scriptures that help us to understand this and incorporate this awareness into our lives. We will also discuss the steps we can take to repair the damage we can inflict with our sins.

Worthiness inherently involves an evaluation, which can be frightening in certain circumstances. For Christians, being worthy in the eyes of God for salvation and other blessings requires faith and personal transformation. It is within the capacity of everyone whom God calls to succeed, turning that frightening experience of evaluation into an exciting one.

A new most religious and conservative government is being formed in Israel under Benjamin Netanyahu, with the new rising star Itamar Ben-Gvir wanting to become security minister, which would make him responsible for keeping the peace at the Temple Mount. Who is Ben-Gvir? What is his position towards Jewish prayers on the Temple Mount and the building of the Third Temple?

The Bible presents examples of nations and individuals who sought God and found Him, and it also reveals what God expects of mankind in this regard.

The only way that we can grow as Christians is by acknowledging our weaknesses so that we give place for God to work in our lives. The vulnerability in that acknowledgment is uncomfortable, but we can trust in the strength of God to give us relief.

Dave Harris Presents todays Sermon.

Certain developments might very well contribute to the prophesied downfall of America and Britain. We report on dangerous and risky experiments taking place in laboratories in London, England, and in Boston, USA, which were called “insanity” and which could unleash, in theory, a new deadly “viral threat”; and we address a new lethal chemical, dubbed as a “weapon of mass destruction,” which has arrived on American soil in quantities which could kill every American citizen seven times over.

Many different ideas exist today as to what is the responsibility of God’s Church in these end times, and how to accomplish what we are commissioned to do. The Bible compares our task with the blowing of trumpets to warn of impending disaster. It also shows us how we are to blow these trumpets. It takes dedication and zeal, as well as total reliance on God and the conviction that He will bless our efforts as long as we are loyal to Him and do not give up.

Terrible Events are escalating in the world on a daily basis, and the future looks grim. Some say that there is no reason to study hard in school or college in order to get good grades; pursue a career, get married, have children, and plan otherwise for the future in general, as the world will end soon and Christ’s return is on the horizon. But is this the right approach?

Jesus Christ tells us that where we place our treasure proves what we set our hearts’ desires upon. When considering the offering we make to God on this day of Atonement, we have an opportunity to exercise our heart in a spiritual sense, by giving back to Him.

As Christians, we observe the Day of Atonement understanding the ultimate meaning, and that is the plan God has established to reconcile mankind to Himself through Jesus Christ.

The situation in Great Britain is catastrophic, and God tells us why. The resignation of Liz Truss after just 45 days in office and the “undemocratic” election of Rishi Sunak should show even the casual observer that Britain’s fate is sealed; especially, when considering what Sunak stands for. One paper wrote that “a voice is missing to save England.” But is this really so?

Why are offerings crucial? Why can only tithing or meeting the minimum requirement make us unprofitable servants? What should our attitude be when giving an offering?

As we attend the Feast we are memorializing the time that God has commanded for us to keep! As we observe these days, we look back at the past and evaluate it, based on the framework of God's Word. Then we make the effort to set our sights on the future and apply what we learn, as we progress in our calling.

Just as we have a plan in our daily lives, God has a plan for us. Through many trials and tests we go through, we must keep in mind that this is all part of God's plan for us to succeed.

God’s plan is full of mercy. People who never had the chance to correctly understand the complete Truth of God’s plan will have a chance to learn and obtain salvation during a resurrection to physical life during the Great White Throne Judgment period. The firstfruits in God’s Family will have the role of sharing the Truth to guide them in their understanding.

In this message, we list three reasons as to why the church will be in the place of safety for 1260 days.

We who are in the church are placed here by God for a reason. We have to adhere to this and understand why God has placed us where He has within the body of Christ. We have the opportunity to serve and help each other in this calling while we are also working on fulfilling our commission to preach the Gospel.

We are all used to our comfort zones. But this is not where we grow - physically or spiritually. God wants us to be uncomfortable so that we can learn to rely on Him in our lives. It is when we are uncomfortable that we can grow so that we can accomplish what it is that God wants from us.

The expression, "Thank God" is typically used as a casual phrase without a proper acknowledgment to God. However, when WE use that phrase, do we truly believe it?

What is it like to be immortal, to not experience pain and death anymore? There are those in the Bible who had a glimpse of what it was like to not feel pain or death, in certain examples. Christ, when He was on the earth, was able to resurrect people from the dead. We will all experience that in the near future when Christ returns, a chance to be in God's kingdom and have everlasting life.

It is likely that we can see when others have “blind spots” but much less likely to acknowledge that may also have them. We must never fool ourselves that we don’t or can’t have them and they can be an impediment in our Christian growth.
