The covenant God formed with Israel at Sinai was a covenant of grace. Having given abundant evidence of His gracious love and care by an extraordinary deliverance from Egyptian slavery, God invited the nation into a covenant with Him that would maintain and promote their freedoms. Although Israel responded in the affirmative, they lacked a true faith motivated by love. Their later history indicates that, for the most part, they failed to understand the true nature of the covenant and corrupted it into a salvation-by-works system. We need not follow Israel’s failure and ignore the marvellous grace that has been extended to sinners. Sabbath School Lessons – God`s Everlasting Covenant.

The magnificent Grand Canyon, one of the world's wonders with its vivid rock layers carved by the copper-colored Colorado River, preserves billions of years of history and protects many species. How does this river valley demonstrate the existence of God and the integrity of the Bible? The Bible tells us about creation in two chapters, then three chapters about a flood — the major flood that transforms the entire landscape of geological understanding. How come certain layers of the Grand Canyon are still flat after millions of years? Dr. Ariel Roth, a zoologist, creationist, and a prominent figure in the field of flood geology who has been highly engaged in the creation-evolution controversy, will address how we can prove that God exists as the great designer of nature about the Grand Canyon in Arizona. "If you're looking for truth, you don't want to limit your horizon. You want to have as many possibilities. So, in case one of them is true, you find it." — Ariel Roth, Ph.D. Watch the entire video to see how amazing God is in creating the world to be magnificent.

ANN brings you the latest events from the Adventist community: Leaders of several Seventh-day Adventist organizations are joining forces to provide urgent assistance to India and Brazil. In a May 4 action, the Administrative Committee of the General Conference, better known as GC ADCOM, voted to release contingency funds and ramp up the coordination of efforts by various church organizations to assist those two pandemic-ravaged nations. The GC ADCOM reported that “Initial estimates in financial support, programming strengthening, and in-kind, totals about US $250,000.” Since the pandemic began, the ADRA COVID-19 response in India has totaled more than $1.2 million, with another 1 million expected in the coming weeks. In the Solomon Islands, a young person from Kukum Seventh-day Adventist Church died on May 9 in a tragic bomb blast at Lengakiki Heights, West Honiara, when a 105-millimeter US projectile left from World War II exploded unexpectedly. Kukum youth leader Raziv Hilly, 29, died from injuries after being rushed to the National Referral Hospital. Two others remain in hospital in critical condition, and one sustained minor injuries. In Chiapas, Mexico, more than 1.1 million samples of the missionary book of the year were distributed. The state-wide initiative led thousands of Seventh-day Adventists to share the book “Hope for Troubled Times” by Mark Finley with everyone in their communities. In Cavite, Philippines, a deadly fire broke out in a residential area of Kawit that left approximately 80 percent of homes destroyed. According to an initial damage report submitted by a local Adventist Community services team of the Cavite Mission, more than 1,000 individuals from 511 families were affected, and 450 survivors had their homes devastated by the fire. In Altamonte Springs, Florida, AdventHealth is expanding on a long-standing alliance with Disney to become the Official Health Care Provider at Walt Disney World Resort.

When you hear the term, "Camp Meeting," what comes to mind? Depending what part of the world you are in, you might be thinking of tents and sawdust. Or trees and lakes. Or some other beautiful outdoor setting. You probably are also remembering warm fellowship with other believers, inspiring messages, and uplifting music. You may even be thinking of your own baptism, or that of a loved one or friend, as many thousands of baptisms have taken place at camp meetings around the world.

Camp meetings, of a sort, have been around for a very long time, as God's people gathered together for spiritual instruction, refreshment, and encouragement. Ellen White wrote: "The camp meeting is one of the most important agencies in our work. It is one of the most effective methods of arresting the attention of the people and reaching all classes with the gospel invitation." She continues, "And our camp meetings have another object, preparatory to this. They are to promote spiritual life among our own people. . . . God has committed to our hands a most sacred work, and we need to meet together to receive instruction, that we may be fitted to perform this work" (Testimonies to the Church, vol. 6, 31). Join us and invite your friends and family to the Adventist Virtual Global Campmeeting to be held beginning May 19. Just go to campmeeting.com to learn more.
