Sunday: The Days of Evil
Daily Lesson for Sunday 28th of January 2024
Read Psalms 74:18-22 and Psalms 79:5-13. What is at stake here?
The psalmist seeks to grasp the great controversy between God and the powers of evil, and he points to God’s unfathomable forbearance, as well as to His infinite wisdom and power.

The problem of evil in the Psalms is primarily theological; it inevitably concerns questions about God. Thus, the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple is seen principally as a divine scandal because it provided an opportunity for the heathen to blaspheme God. God’s inheritance (the people of Israel) is the sign of His divine election and covenant (Deuteronomy 4:32-38; Deuteronomy 32:8-9) that will never fail. The concept of God’s inheritance also contains an end-time dimension, as one day all nations will become God’s inheritance and will serve Him. The notion that the nations invaded God’s inheritance threatens these divine promises.
No question, the psalmist acknowledges that the sins of the people corrupted the people’s covenantal relationship with God and brought upon the people all the consequences (Psalms 79:8-9). The people’s survival depends solely upon God’s gracious intervention and the restoration of the covenantal bond through the atonement of sin. The Lord is “God of our salvation,” which conveys God’s faithfulness to His covenantal promises (Psalms 79:9).
However, more important than the restoration of Israel’s fortunes is the defense of God’s character in the world (Psalms 79:9). If the evil actions of the nations go unpunished, it will appear that God has lost His power (Psalms 74:18-23, Psalms 83:16-18, Psalms 106:47). Only when God saves His people will His name be justified and uplifted.
As today, the same principle existed back then. Our sins, our backsliding, our evils, can bring disrepute not only on ourselves but, worse, on the God whose name we profess. Our wrong actions can have detrimental spiritual effects on our witness and mission, as well. How many people have been turned off to our faith by the actions of those professing the name of Christ?
“The honor of God, the honor of Christ, is involved in the perfection of the character of His people.”—Ellen G. White, _The Desire of Ages_, p. 671. How do you understand this important truth and what it should mean in your own Christian life?

EDITORIAL: Fearful, & Not in a Way I Like
We Adventists want to be known for our focus on health, education, and a hopeful belief in a soon Second Coming. What we don’t like to admit is how fearful we are of God. It’s not the healthy reverence found in the Psalms, the awe that inspires us to strive for holiness. This fear is […] Source: https://atoday.org/editorial-fearful-not-in-a-way-i-like/

Наш пастор сует нос в церковные книги, и нам это не нравится!
24 апреля 2020 | Дорогая тётя Аня, Недавно в нашу общину был назначен новый пастор. Одной из первых вещей, которые он сделал, был звонок казначею общины, чтобы она принесла ему финансовые документы церкви. Он планировал оценить, какие члены церкви платили церковную десятину и приношения, а какие – нет. Когда казначей отказался это сделать, пастор огорчился […] Source: https://atoday.org/%d0%bd%d0%b0%d1%88-%d0%bf%d0%b0%d1%81%d1%82%d0%be%d1%80-%d1%81%d1%83%d0%b5%d1%82-%d0%bd%d0%be%d1%81-%d0%b2-%d1%86%d0%b5%d1%80%d0%ba%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%bd%d1%8b%d0%b5-%d0%ba%d0%bd%d0%b8%d0%b3%d0%b8-%d0%b8/
Spirit of Prophecy | Pastor Ted Wilson
Everyone enjoys receiving gifts. Whether it be for a birthday, holiday celebration, or as an unexpected act of appreciation, gifts demonstrate that the giver cares for the one they are giving the gift to. Throughout the course of history, the greatest gift-giver of all is God.
In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson, president of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, explores Gifts of the Spirit found in 1 Corinthians 12 and takes a deeper look at one gift in particular–the gift of prophecy.
He also answers questions like: What is prophecy? How does it benefit the Church? How can I tell if someone is a true prophet? Is the gift of prophecy relevant today?

Pleasant Truth
by Rich Hannon | 26 January 2024 | Adventism was born and raised with the self-image that we are a band of plucky truth-seekers. That’s not wrong, but neither is it wholly true. Over time, and certainly at present, the church seems to be less about seeking and more about preserving current orthodoxy. There is […] Source: https://atoday.org/pleasant-truth/
