The Delay Problem & Last Generation Theology
by Rich Hannon | 2 August 2022 | Adventism has, in its basic DNA, a deep fascination with having The Truth. That is, a correct understanding of what God is revealing to mankind. Historically the church has evangelized from this posture, comparing other denominations’ theology to our doctrinal distillations and finding the competition wanting.

Wednesday: Radical Commitment
“If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell” (Matthew 5:29-30).
Dwell on the words of Jesus in the above verse. Would you call His words radical? If so, why?

Radical action is necessary not because God has made the Christian life difficult, but because we and our culture have drifted so far away from God’s plans for us. People often wake up and wonder to themselves, “How could I have gone so far away from God?” The answer is always the same: just one step at a time.
Read , Matthew 5:30. Jesus is speaking in the context of sexual sin. However, the underlying principles apply to dealing with other sin, as well. Indeed, the principles can apply to our growth in Christ in general.
What crucial point is Jesus telling us with His words in Matthew 5:29-30? Are we really called literally to maim ourselves?
Jesus isn’t calling us to harm our bodies physically — not at all! Rather, He is calling us to control our minds and therefore our bodies, no matter the cost. Notice that the verses do not say that we should pray and that God will instantly remove the sinful tendencies from our lives.
Sometimes God may graciously do this for us, but often He calls us to make a radical commitment to give up something, or start doing something, that we may not feel like doing at all. What a crucible that can be! The more often we make the right choices, the stronger we will become, and the weaker the power of temptation in our lives.
God sometimes uses crucibles to catch our attention when there are so many noisy distractions around us. It is in the crucible that we realize how far we have drifted from God. The crucible may be God’s call for us to make a radical decision to return to our Father’s plan for us.
Amen!

Becoming Vulnerable to Do Greater Works #Campmeeting
Do you have the ability to do the work that Jesus did while on earth? As stated in John 14:12, God encourages and invites us to do a greater work, but why aren’t we completing the job entrusted to us? Greater work begins with vulnerability. It is taking the risk of admitting that we are flawed and in need of help and support. Going through the vulnerability process is necessary to complete the greater work we can do. There would be a much higher conversion in truth and success in our ministry if we were humble, kind, courteous, and compassionate. What is the relationship between vulnerability and ministry success? Watch the video to discover how vulnerability can lead to compassionate intervention, resulting in huge success in God's ministry. ————————————————————————————-
