How to Be Perfect Before Jesus Comes

Sabbath School Net Posted on December 27, 2022 by David BissellJanuary 8, 2023avatar
Christ's Helping Hand © Chernetskaya

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. (Matthew 5:48) “Those who are living upon the earth, when the intercession of Christ shall cease in the sanctuary above, are to stand in the sight of a holy God without a Mediator” (Great Controversy, p. 425). These two statements struck terror to my young … Continue reading –>

Giants, Grasshoppers and Reality

Sabbath School Net Posted on May 28, 2013 by William EarnhardtOctober 4, 2013avatar

Reality is 90% perception, or so they say. I don’t know who comes up with these statistics, but it makes a lot of sense to me. When I was in sales, I led my district one year, but also went through a three-week drought with no sales at all. So what was my reality? Was … Continue reading –>

“Not I But Christ” OR “Me Plus Christ”

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 16, 2013 by William EarnhardtOctober 16, 2015avatar

There are probably plenty of  reasons why God waited till He had created everything else, before He created man. Obviously the environment was not inhabitable for mankind earlier, but I would like to suggest another reason. If man had been around while God was creating the earth, he might have come up with the notion … Continue reading –>

Spiritual Perfectionism

Sabbath School Net Posted on January 5, 2013 by Jennifer SchwirzerApril 18, 2013avatar

I’ve heard that the wise old owls at the American Psychiatric Association who revamp the diagnostic manual every ten years have considered a diagnosis of “perfectionism.” What do you think? So far the owls believe that 301.4, obsessive compulsive personality disorder (OCPD, not to be confused with OCD, [or CDO if you want the letters … Continue reading –>

A Divine Interrruption

Sabbath School Net Posted on December 30, 2012 by Jennifer SchwirzerAugust 31, 2013avatar

Happy New Year! I don’t do resolutions. I’ve observed two things—that humans have an indefatigable drive to fix themselves, and that it is utterly futile and fruitless. The only good that comes from our self-fixing is that some of us finally learn it’s impossible. Observe every world religion other than the faith of Jesus. Each … Continue reading –>

Restoration

Sabbath School Net Posted on October 18, 2012 by Lillianne LopezMarch 22, 2013avatar

There’s a TV show that my family and I watch called American Restoration. The star is Rick Dale. 1 Watching Rick restore whatever his clients bring in is an amazing process. Usually what they bring in has been dropped, crushed, rusted or in some other way destroyed. But after Rick and his employees have worked … Continue reading –>

God Wants a Real Bride, Not a Trophy Bride

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 29, 2012 by William EarnhardtSeptember 1, 2013avatar
Joy in Heaven

And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  1 Thessalonians 5:23 I have often heard that the Great Controversy between God and Satan is about whether we can keep God’s law, and … Continue reading –>
