Sabbath School Lesson: When God Made the Earth Part 1
The first chapters of Genesis are important. They show us the most important teachings in the #Bible. We see the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They work together to make the earth and humans. We learn about the Sabbath and how evil started. We learn about the #Savior and God’s plan to save us. We learn about the worldwide #Flood and God’s agreement. Genesis also shows us why people started talking in different languages. The family lists in Genesis show us Bible history from the time #God made the earth to Abraham’s time. Finally, in Genesis, we see the power of God’s spoken Word. We learn about #marriage, taking care of God’s gifts, and God’s promise of a new earth. All these topics start in Genesis. #Genesis will be our study this week and next week. Sabbath School Lesson 8: https://bit.ly/3fQLZRq Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQoNe9D3R5g

It is at a time like this that Adventist Solidarity Action (ASA) becomes one of the only hopes for these people.
On April 26, dozens of Venezuelan immigrants residing in Guatambu, a town of about 5,000 in western Santa Catarina, received food, clothing, shoes…

Atheist Shares Christ
Esko was 63 and ill when he showed up at Piikkiö Seventh-day Adventist Church in southwestern Finland.
“I don’t need the food,” he told food pantry director Riitta-Liisa Peltonen as he picked out vegetables, meat, and bread. “It’s for my friends.”
Riitta-Liisa looked tenderly at the obese man. The odor of sweat and unwashed clothes clung to him. He suffered severe liver problems after years of hard drinking. His eyes were kind.
“Are you a Christian?” Riitta-Liisa asked.
Esko shifted his eyes…
