The Adventist Health Message and the Environment
by David Garner | 8 February 2022 | Since their early days, Seventh-day Adventists articulated principles of health based on biblical principles and backed up by medical science of the day.

Wednesday: Better Things
After the strong and sincere warning of Hebrews 6:4-8, Paul expresses confidence that the readers have neither fallen away from the Son, nor will they in the future. He believes that his audience will receive the warning and produce the appropriate fruits. They are like the “earth,” which is cultivated by God and produces the fruits He expects. These people will receive the blessing from God (Hebrews 6:7), which is “salvation” (Hebrews 6:9).
Read Hebrews 6:9-12. List the good things that the audience has done and continues to do and explain what they mean.

Believers show their love toward God’s “name,” that is, toward God Himself, by their service to the saints. These were not isolated actions in the past, but sustained actions that have extended into the present. Exceptional acts do not reveal the true character of a person. The weightiest evidence of love toward God is not “religious” acts per say, but acts of love toward fellow human beings, especially those who are disadvantaged (Matthew 10:42, Matthew 25:31-46). Thus, Paul exhorts believers not to “forget” to do good (Hebrews 13:2, Hebrews 13:16).
Look at Hebrews 6:12. It warns against their becoming “dull” or “sluggish” (ESV), which characterizes those who fail to mature and who are in danger of falling away (Hebrews 5:11, Hebrews 6:12). Hope is not kept alive by intellectual exercises of faith, but by faith expressed in acts of love (Romans 13:8-10).
Paul wants the readers to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. He has already presented the wilderness generation as a negative example of those who, through lack of faith and perseverance, failed to inherit what was promised. He then presents Abraham (Hebrews 6:13-15) as an example of one who through “faith and patience” inherited the promises. The list of positive exemplars is lengthened with the people of faith in Hebrews 11, and it climaxes with Jesus in Hebrews 12 as the greatest example of faith and patience (Hebrews 12:1-4). In Revelation 14:12, faith, patience, and commandment keeping are characteristics of the saints in the last days.
| Sometimes we have to give words of warning to those people whom we love. What can we learn from the apostle regarding warning and encouraging others? |
Amen!

7.JESUS, THE ANCHOR OF THE SOUL
Could it be that we are discouraged by trials?
Memory Text: Hebrews 6:19.20 – This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both secure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.

Whoever abides in the relationship with Jesus produces fruits of a fine character.
My God bless you today and always

In 2018, the proportion of people that said they never had daily worship rose to 21 percent. Also, the number of people reporting that they had […] Source: https://atoday.org/not-so-happy-happy-home-lack-of-family-worship-possibly-related-to-youth-exodus-from-adventist-church/
