Remembering How God Led (160th Anniversary)
This week, Pastor Ted Wilson discusses a very important date in the history of God's last-day remnant movement—May 20, 1863—in which 18 delegates gathered to organize the Seventh-day Adventist Church. God organized the Seventh-day Adventist Church for unity, identity, and mission—to proclaim His last-day three angels' messages to a world in need.
Learn how this story of beginnings fits into our weekly study of The Great Controversy by Ellen G. White, how God led then, in 1863, and continues to lead now as we reach our 160th anniversary. To learn more about how Reformers, Adventist pioneers, and missionaries relate to our present experience, read The Great Controversy by Ellen White at https://greatcontroversyproject.org/.

Ellen White’s Random Borrowing
by Ron Graybill | 18 May 2023 | Those who are familiar with Ellen White’s writings and who have spent time identifying sources from which she borrowed, sometimes run across passages which seem so uniquely colorful or eloquent that one suspects she borrowed the wording from some earlier source. By searching “Google Books,” or scanning […] Source: https://atoday.org/ellen-whites-random-borrowing/
Inside Story: Quandary of Two Books
Quandary of Two Books
When I grew up in a secular Jewish home, the essence of my religious experience could be summed up by how we kept the holidays: They tried to kill us, they failed – let’s eat! Nevertheless, I was always a seeker for truth.
In the fall of 1979, my seeking took me down the path of the occult and spiritualism. I even had a few experiences with astral travel. Not knowing the source of these experiences, only that they were real, I decided to start reading about them. Thus, I walked over to the library at the University of Florida to get a book on the occult and start delving deeper into it.
At that point, I was a hungry writer who needed a job. As I was walking to the library, I stopped at a health food store in order to ask for work. A man came out and, as soon as I said something about the supernatural, he blurted out, “What?” He dragged me into the store and locked the door. After I told him about my experiences, he tried to warn me about demonic influences. Well, he might as well have talked to me about Santa Claus as about the devil. Before I left, he handed me a book and said, “Please, read it.”
Thus, with his book in hand, I went over to the University of Florida library and found an occult book. Because I wasn’t in school, I could not check it out, so I sat down in the library, read the first chapter, and even practiced the first technique, all of which was very new to me. Then, I went and hid the book on the shelves so that I could be sure that no one would check it out before I was done reading it myself.
Anyway, here’s the rub: I was walking through the library with the two books. In one hand I had, for the first time in my life, this book on the occult; in the other, for the first time in my life, I had the book that the man in the health food store gave me. One book in one hand, one book in the other. Occult book in one hand, and what was in the other? The Great Controversy. At the time, I was clueless as to what was unfolding around me.
A few days later, after an amazing confrontation with the Lord, I gave my heart to Jesus and those occult experiences never came back. Soon afterward I read The Great Controversy, a life-changing experience. No question, the Lord arranged for this powerful, timely, and important book to come into my life. Yes, I was a seeker for truth, and I found so much of it there.

Friday: Further Thought ~ The Sabbath and the End
Further Thought:
“The reason provided … to worship God is that He is the Creator. In the heavenly liturgy, celestial beings expressed the idea in a very succinct way: ‘For You created all things’ ([Rev.] 4:11, [NKJV]). On earth, God’s creatorship needs to be emphasized as much as possible, so the angel says, ‘Worship Him who made the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters’ ([Rev.] 14:7).
It has been correctly indicated that the angel is using the language of the fourth commandment to justify the call to worship God (Exodus 20:11). …
Within the Decalogue the Sabbath commandment stands as its seal in that it identifies who God is — the Creator; confirms the territory over which He rules — everything He created; and reveals His right to rule — for He created everything. In order for the dragon to succeed, he had somehow to set aside this memorial.” — Ángel Manuel Rodríguez, “The Closing of the Cosmic Conflict: Role of the Three Angels’ Messages,” unpublished manuscript, Pages 40, 41.
