Have you ever wondered how the things around us are made and developed? How are humans created in such a delicate and mysterious structure? There will be times when we are astounded by scientific findings and believe what they are claiming but looking through the pages of the Bible, however, we will comprehend who created and formed everything, and we will just declare, "MY GOD DID THIS!"
When it comes to science and the Bible, our cultures have a serious disagreement. There seems to be an unresolvable clash between science and faith, which feels like a test of our faith.
The Bible is a religious book with a central message of salvation, but it also has a lot of implications and a clear record of historical events that, from our view may be checked against scientific evidence. The Bible has many scientific references so science should not be worshiped as a god. It is just one tool we use to attempt to understand the natural world created by God. Listen in as Suzanne Phillips emphasizes in her message that the Bible is the sole authority that humans should follow and that the Word of God can be trusted. The Seventh-day Adventist Church has been an established denomination since 1863. It is a global Christian family with over 21 million members who hold the Bible as the ultimate authority. We are believers who promise to help people understand the Bible and find freedom, healing, and hope in Jesus. Want to learn more about the Seventh-day Adventist Church?

Sunday: One Flesh
Daily Lesson for Sunday 13th of April 2025
Few biblical metaphors underscore the intimacy that God desires with the human race more than that of marriage. This metaphor is used so frequently in the biblical narrative—and shows up so pointedly in Revelation—that it is imperative for Bible students to grasp what God is driving at when He uses it in the Word.
Read Genesis 2:23-25 and Ephesians 5:29-32. In what ways does a human marriage mirror Christ’s bond to humanity?

On an occasion when Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees, He quoted the Genesis account of Adam and Eve’s marriage, to which the Pharisees quickly raised the question, “ ‘Why then did Moses command to give a certificate of divorce, and to put her away?’ ” (Matthew 19:7, NKJV).
Moses, of course, was deemed a founding prophet for the nation. Imagine questioning the Author of the institution of marriage by pitting Him against His own prophet. Their tact was typical of their approach to Jesus; they often attempted to prove that His teachings contradicted the Scriptures.
Lifetime, faithful marriage was the ideal established by God at the foundation of the human race. Fallen humanity, unfortunately, damaged this foundational gift from God.
Perhaps, given the importance that Scripture assigns to marriage, it is not a coincidence that the institution has always been under relentless attack. Along with the Sabbath, it is one of the two gifts bestowed on us in Eden, and both were intended to demonstrate God’s desire for an intimate relationship with His creation.
Marriage, the intimate pairing of two imperfect people, will always give cause for tension. A marriage between the church and Christ is the pairing of a perfect Savior with a very imperfect bride. Nevertheless, we can learn about God’s love from what a good marriage offers.

Here are three principles for marriage. First, forgive your spouse, however undeserving, just as Christ forgives us, however undeserving. Second, accept your spouse, faults and all, just as Christ accepts us, faults and all. Third, just as Christ put us before Himself, put your spouse before yourself. How could all three of these gospel-based principles help us not only to understand how God relates to us but also to help any marriage? |
