The (Virtual) Tent – An Online Evangelistic Series by Students
On Friday, May 22, 2020, the first ever Virtual Tent meeting, a collaboration of the Ruth Murdoch Elementary School and PMC Youth ministries premiered on YouTube and Facebook. “The Tent,” as it is known, has been an evangelistic series put on by junior high students in a large tent on the campus of Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan. For the past seven years, the program has occurred every May. This year the live event had to shift to virtual meetings due to the COVID-19 pandemic, stay at home orders, and quarantine.

Pastor Ted Wilson: A Special Message on Prophecy and the Sabbath
What does the book of Daniel tell us about the #Sabbath? What can we learn from these #prophecies? #Daniel reminds us that Jesus is coming soon. #Prophecy tells us exactly that. In this video, we will look through Daniel chapter 2 and chapter 7. In Daniel chapter 7, we find some amazing aspects that are very similar to Daniel chapter 2. There is a very great attempt to change God's law. The Sabbath is God's seal, His special connection, His understanding for us that he is the Creator that He has authority. The little horn in Daniel will not succeed because God is in control. The official accounts of the Seventh-day Adventist World Church:

How to Study Difficult Verses in the #Bible
Peter says that some parts of Paul’s letters are “hard to understand” (2 Peter 3:16, NKJV). Do you see that Peter does not say that all parts of Paul’s letters are hard to understand? Only some are. We know that also is true about the #Bible. Who has not read a verse that was strange and difficult to understand? For sure, we all have this experience sometimes. This week we will look at the reasons why some verses are difficult to understand. We also will answer the question: What can we do to understand these verses better? In the end, some of our questions may not be answered before #Jesus comes back. At the same time, we must remember that most verses in the Bible are not hard to understand. So, we should not let the small number of difficult verses cause our trust in the Bible to become weak. Remember, we can trust the Bible because it is God’s Word.
