14 April 2025 | Dear Aunty Sevvy, I find it disturbing how frequently I hear the story of Ananias and Sapphira cited as a warning for those who don’t tithe or otherwise support the church.

Back to the Altar – 100 Days of Prayer – Zoom meeting (4/13/25)
3: Images from Marriage – Singing with Inspiration
To learn of the Allusions, Images and Symbols in Bible Prophecy we are really in great need of saying to God
Give Me The Bible – Hymn 272 so we can learn with His abundant help. This will be our theme for this, the second quarter of Bible Study, 2025.
Sabbath afternoon invites us to accept the perfect love we have from our wonderful God:
O Perfect Love – Hymn 656 just as there is to be in marriage.
“We are beautiful because we are covered in His righteousness,” says Monday’s lesson study, all because of the blood of Jesus:
Cover With His Life – Hymn 412 and Jesus, Your Blood and Righteousness – Hymn 177.
The story of Hosea’s Harlot Wife reminds us clearly that we are
Redeemed (by Jesus) – Hymn 337/338.
As we keep learning, we find on Wednesday there is a reinforcement to remember the Crowning Jewel of Creation – Hymn 385, the Sabbath Day.
When The Harlot Is Judged (Thursday), the debt has to be paid, and it is Jesus who clearly states
I Gave My Life For Thee – Hymn 281.
Please continue to search the scriptures this week to be blessed, and to bless others.
To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/
Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org/Search and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
