ATSS Presents: Laurence Turner on Adventism and the Cosmic Week
15 May 2022 | Seventh-day Adventism arose in the aftermath of the Great Disappointment of 1844. Despite numerous “proofs” culled from Scripture, used confidently to pinpoint the date of the second advent to October 22, 1844, Christ did not return. This failure of chronological calculations ensured that official Adventism would never predict a precise time […] Source: https://atoday.org/78859-2/
Monday: God Will Provide
Read Genesis 22:8, Genesis 22:14, Genesis 22:18. How did God fulfill His promise that He will provide? What was provided?
When Isaac asked about the sacrificial animal, Abraham gave an intriguing answer: God will “provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering” (Genesis 22:8, NKJV). Yet, the Hebrew verbal form can actually mean “God will provide Himself as the lamb.” The verb “provide” (yir’eh lo) is used in a way that can mean “provide Himself” (or literally, “see Himself”).

What we are being shown here, then, is the essence of the plan of salvation, with the Lord Himself suffering and paying in Himself the penalty for our sins!
Read John 1:1-3 and Romans 5:6-8. How do these verses help us understand what happened at the Cross, which is prefigured in the sacrifice here on Mount Moriah?
There, at Mount Moriah, long before the cross, the sacrificial ram “caught in a thicket by his horns” (Genesis 22:13) was pointing right to Jesus. He is One that is “seen” here, as Abraham explains later, “In the mount where the LORD is seen” (Genesis 22:14, author’s translation). Jesus Himself had pointed to Abraham’s prophetic utterance here, when He said, echoing Abraham’s statement: “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad” (John 8:56, NKJV).
“It was to impress Abraham’s mind with the reality of the gospel, as well as to test his faith, that God commanded him to slay his son. The agony which he endured during the dark days of that fearful trial was permitted that he might understand from his own experience something of the greatness of the sacrifice made by the infinite God for man’s redemption.” — Ellen G. White, Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 154.
| How does what happened here help us better understand what happened at the cross and what God has suffered in our behalf? What should our response be to what has been done for us? |
Amen!

What Does the Bible Say About the Church? #TedWilson #shorts
When you hear the word, "church," what comes to mind? Is it a building with rows of benches and stained-glass windows? Is it a gathering of people dressed up, singing hymns? What does the Bible teach us about the Church? This #short clip from Pastor Ted Wilson’s weekly message, “Church [What Does the Bible Teach Us About It?]”, explains that God desired to create the largest church on earth through Israel, where representatives of all nations would gather to worship and proclaim the message of salvation, but they sadly failed at their mission because of idolatry and pride. Watch the entire video to discover more about what God did to establish the Christian church and its mission to proclaim and offer the free gift of salvation.
