Can You Be in the Church and Be Lost?
Can it be that you pray, you rest on the Sabbath, study your Bible, pay tithe, do all the good stuff, and you are lost, but you don’t know that you are lost? Can you be in the church a be lost? Like the lost coin in Jesus’ parable. It was lost in the house, but it didn’t know it was lost. If so, how do you know if you don’t know that you don’t know? ===

The Great Controversy Chapter 9 Part 2: The Swiss Reformer
This week Pastor Ted continues the discussion of chapter nine of The Great Controversy, entitled “The Swiss Reformer” in which Ulrich Zwingli begins an influential ministry at the cathedral in Zurich. There he preached zealously against the selling of indulges, overcomes the “Great Death” plague to continue preaching, and continues to spread the Gospel in Switzerland. Oecolampadius and Haller were chosen to represent the Reformer at a hearing in Baden organized by the Church of Rome. For 18 days the Reformers defended their stance against Dr. Eck, representing Rome, using letters secretly carried to Zwingli by messengers. Not long after this council, the important cities of Bern and Basel declared they were on the side of the Reformation, a victory for God’s message in Europe. To learn more about this important moment in Reformation history and how it relates to our present experience, read The Great Controversy by Ellen White at https://greatcontroversyproject.org/.

Would Your Church Call Jesus to Be Its Pastor?

God’s Imperfections Reveal Ours

Inside Story: 700 Rebels Baptized
700 Former Rebels Baptized
By Andrew McChesney
The Philippines was mired in conflict with rebels on Mindoro Island for 52 years. Land and money were offered to the rebels in exchange for peace, but nothing seemed to work. A seemingly endless cycle of ambushes and counterattacks left 40,000 people dead.

In 2017, Adventist World Radio (AWR) began broadcasting in Mindoro as part of an Seventh-day Adventist world church initiative known as TMI evangelism. TMI stands for Total Member Involvement, a program that encourages every church member to bring someone to Jesus. AWR leased time on local radio stations, and local church members got involved by giving Bible studies and inviting neighbors to evangelistic meetings. About 1,400 people were baptized at the meetings, and the broadcasts continued.
In 2019, rebels holed up in the lush green mountains of Mindoro began to listen to AWR. As COVID-19 swept the world in 2020, a number of them decided to surrender to Jesus.
Rebel leader Ka Martin could not understand what was happening, and he started to listen to AWR.
“He was hiding in the jungle, watching and trying to figure out why his fighters were leaving him,“ said AWR president Duane McKey. ”So he started listening to the radio.”
Martin was responsible for the deaths of dozens of people, including 21 soldiers whom he ambushed while they slept and shot them dead with one of their own machine guns. But as he listened to AWR, he also decided to give his heart to Jesus.
A bloodstained chapter of Philippine history drew to a close when about 700 former rebels, including Martin and his wife, laid down their weapons and were baptized at AWR-led evangelistic meetings. In all, over 60,000 people were baptized during the “Earth’s Final Countdown” meetings across the Philippines about a year ago.
“What bullets couldn’t do, God has done,” McKey said.
The Philippine government has granted amnesty to the former rebels. AWR is working with the government and a nongovernmental organization, ASI-member Farm Stew, to help the former rebels earn a livelihood through farming.
“We won’t stop the AWR broadcasts,“ said McKey, who also serves at assistant to the General Conference president in charge of Total Member Involvement. ”The local churches are now running the broadcasts, and we provide the sermons. The laypeople make this happen. This is a perfect example of Total Member Involvement.”
