Regresando a la fe después de dejarla
A finales de 2021 se produjo un fascinante escándalo religioso en Internet y las redes sociales. El Dr. Yitzhak Y. Melamed, profesor de filosofía de la Universidad Johns Hopkins, publicó en Facebook una carta que había recibido de la sinagoga portuguesa (la Esnoga) de Ámsterdam. El Dr. Melamed había escrito a la sinagoga solicitando permiso […] Source: https://atoday.org/regresando-a-la-fe-despues-de-dejarla/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=regresando-a-la-fe-despues-de-dejarla

Sabbath: The Tithing Contract
Image © Pacific Press
Sabbath Afternoon
Read for This Week’s Study: Genesis 14:18-20; Malachi 3:10; Deuteronomy 12:5-14; Leviticus 27:30; 1 Kings 17:9-16; 1 Corinthians 4:1-2.
Memory Text: “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this,’ says the LORD of hosts, ‘if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it” (Malachi 3:10, NKJV).
In Genesis 14:1-24, Abram had returned from a successful hostage rescue mission in which he had saved his nephew Lot, Lot’s family, and the other people taken from Sodom. The king of Sodom was so grateful for the rescue that he offered Abram all the spoils of the battle. Abram not only refused the offer but gave a tithe of all that he possessed to Melchizedek.
Immediately after Abram’s tithing experience, the Lord said, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward” (Genesis 15:1, NKJV). In effect, the Lord was telling Abram, “Don’t worry. I will be your protector and provider.” Then, much later, Moses told Israel as they were about to enter Canaan, “You shall truly tithe all the increase of your grain that the field produces year by year … that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always” (Deuteronomy 14:22-23, , NKJV).
Ellen G. White wrote: “Men were required to offer to God gifts for religious purposes before the definite system was given to Moses, even as far back as the days of Adam.” — Testimonies for the Church, vol. 3, p. 393.
What does all this mean for us today?
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, January 21.
Amen!

Strangers in the Night
It happened just as the day retired and the shades of the evening took centre stage. The hospital car park was still and silent. The half-filled car park asleep with a plethora of vehicles patiently awaiting the return of their drivers.
She ran out of nowhere. Hysterical. Sobbing. Inconsolable. The shock of the trauma hindered her from pressing the keys on her mobile phone. Slowly she sank to the ground, the tears falling as if the floodgates had burst. She struggled to rise and then paced back…Source: https://adventist.uk/news/article/go/2023-01-13/1433/
