How long did it take God to create everything we see around us? Pastor Ted Wilson, president of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, outlines the foundational truths of the Bible that support our fundamental belief #6. Walk with Pastor Wilson through Genesis 1 and 2, emphasizing its literal interpretation as a recent, six-day event and its significance in establishing the Sabbath. Learn how this belief in Creation can shape our understanding of God's authority and impact our faith in the salvation process through Christ's righteousness. Explore different views on the time span of Creation and contrast them with the Spirit of Prophecy and Biblical teachings, reaffirming the Adventist belief in a literal Creation and its theological implications, especially regarding the Sabbath and the second coming of Christ. Join us in this faith-affirming journey as we seek a deeper understanding of God's Word and His authoritative voice in Creation. Follow this weekly series with Pastor Ted Wilson to counter the devil's deception with the truth of God. 🔗 For a detailed look at this fundamental belief, visit https://www.adventist.org/creation/.

Sabbath: Mission to the Unreached: Part 2
Daily Lesson for Saturday 9th of December 2023
Read for This Week’s Study
1 Kings 11:1-6; Matthew 4:23-25; Matthew 15:22-28; Mark 7:24-30; Acts 10:34-35; Matthew 8:10,13.
Memory Text:
“Then Jesus answered and said to her, ‘O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.’ And her daughter was healed from that very hour” (Matthew 15:28, NKJV).
From the beginning, a loving God sought His lost children (Genesis 3:9); and, to our day, this same loving God is still seeking to reach the lost (see Revelation 14:6-12), including the lost in the cities. In 2018, the United Nations published its latest findings, which say that 55 percent of the planet’s population lives in urban areas, and this will grow (if time should last) to 68 percent by 2050. We have no choice: we must witness to those in the cities.
Yet, many of God’s people act as Jonah did when called to witness to a city: for whatever reason, they flee from the task. “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope” (Romans 15:4, NKJV). That includes what was written about Jonah.
When here, Jesus ministered not only to those in the cities of Israel but to those in foreign regions, as well; that is, to those outside of the Jewish nation and the chosen people.
This week we will study the Bible story of Christ’s mission to Tyre and Sidon and draw lessons to apply to our lives today.
*Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, December 16.
