Truly Worshiping God Means Truly Trusting Him

Jesus Watching a Man Reading Scripture

Tuesday’s section of this week’s lesson asks, “How can we make sure we aren’t involved in any false worship?” It seems the question between true worship and false worship boils down to who we really trust. For example, the children of Israel turned to Aaron’s golden calf when they didn’t trust Moses to return. Saul … Continue reading –>

09: Words of Truth – Thought Starters

Sabbath School Net Posted on February 24, 2015 by Joyce GriffithFebruary 25, 2015Joyce Griffith

Introduction. Are you comfortable with the idea that some of the proverbs in the Bible reflect sayings of the heathen? If not, why not? If the truth espoused by the ancient Egyptians corresponds with truth followed by Christians, should we not embrace that truth as well? [Thought questions for Words of Truth February 24, 2015] 1. … Continue reading –>

Real or Right?

Sabbath School Net Posted on December 11, 2012 by Jennifer SchwirzerOctober 27, 2025avatar

During the Billy Graham era, while the evangelical movement retained the flavor of modernism, the preaching emphasis seemed to my young adult mind to be “getting right” with God. During that time I became a Christian and then a Seventh-day Adventist. Everything felt right. I got right with God, began worshiping on the right day, … Continue reading –>

Comfortable Lies — Uneasy Truths

Sabbath School Net Posted on September 19, 2012 by Lillianne LopezDecember 31, 2014avatar

Which would you rather hear? Be honest now. Wouldn’t you rather hear that your new haircut makes you look 10 years younger rather than that it makes your ears look really, really huge? Think back to when you were dating – when you first introduced someone you’d met to your friends, you wanted to hear … Continue reading –>

Should We Hide Who We Are?

Sabbath School Net Posted on June 13, 2012 by William EarnhardtApril 7, 2018avatar

And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God. And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known. Mark 3:11-12 Many people, even in our own ranks, accuse Seventh-day Adventists of being dishonest, when we cover up our church sign when … Continue reading –>

At a camp meeting 40 years later, I happened to see Dr. I. demonstrating some kind of health product, if I remember correctly. (In my mind, I see only the image of him, much older, but still looking much like he did when I was a student, with a friend by my side.) I lingered a little but did not introduce myself. I briefly wondered whether he recognized me. I’m fairly sure that I was as recognizable to him as he was to me.

Had he changed? Or did he still feel superior in his “humility”? Should I talk to him? I didn’t know how to approach him, and was busy with friends. I still don’t know whether I should have said something. (Maybe I’m just a coward.)

If God wants him to see my story, his and my identity are clear enough in this post, that God can direct him to it.
