3 April 2023 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, My problem is probably as old as the world, but I don’t know how to handle it. My mother-in-law absolutely dotes on her son. She fawns over him and compliments him. She tolerates me, but little digs (possibly she’s not even aware of them) aren’t uncommon. “You look […] Source: https://atoday.org/aunt-sevvy-my-mother-in-law-dotes-on-her-son-but-insults-me/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=aunt-sevvy-my-mother-in-law-dotes-on-her-son-but-insults-me
par Alvin Masarisa | 28 mars 2023 | Selon les statistiques de la Conférence Générale, plus de 20 millions de membres de l’église Adventiste du septième jour, vivant dans plus de 200 pays différents, rendent un culte dans plus de 52.000 congrégations. Chaque assemblée est unique, et il serait difficile de savoir comment les membres […] Source: https://atoday.org/quelle-est-la-raison-detre-des-lecons-de-lecole-du-sabbat/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=quelle-est-la-raison-detre-des-lecons-de-lecole-du-sabbat
Durante un reciente proyecto de redacción para Adventist Today, el editor Loren Seibold y yo tuvimos una discusión sobre mi uso de la palabra “sublimación”. Ambos teníamos razón, pero él tenía más razón, porque una vez que una palabra poco conocida requiere ese nivel de discusión, es evidente que su uso podría hacer que algunos […] Source: https://atoday.org/tragedia-trauma-y-animales-que-hablan/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tragedia-trauma-y-animales-que-hablan
John states that “I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man” (Revelation 14:14, NKJV). When Jesus ascended to heaven, Luke records in Acts 1:9 that as the disciples stood gazing up into heaven, “while they watched, He [Jesus] was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight” (NKJV). Jesus ascended in a cloud of angels and will return with a cloud of angels.

The angels then declared to the amazed disciples in Acts 1:11, “This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven“ (NKJV). There is a divine truth embedded in this passage that may not be apparent. This “same Jesus,” the “Son of Man,” the One who walked the dusty streets of Nazareth, ministered in the crowded streets of Jerusalem, healed the sick in the villages of Israel, and preached on the grassy hillsides of Galilee is coming again.
The Son of Man is also mentioned in the light of the judgment in Daniel 7:1-28.
In Daniel 7:9-10, , Daniel views the seating of the heavenly court with ten thousand times ten thousand of angelic, heavenly beings gathered around the throne. The judgment is set, and the books — the celestial records of our lives — are opened before the universe. In Daniel 7:13-14, , the Son of Man approaches the Ancient of Days, the Father, and receives His eternal kingdom. The judgment reveals before the entire universe that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have done everything possible to save all humanity. This judgment vindicates not only the saints but God’s own character against the false charges of Satan (see Job 1:1-2:13, Psalm 51:1-4).
| Think about the fact that your whole life will come under scrutiny before God. What, then, is your only hope when this happens? (See Romans 8:1.) |
