Aunt Sevvy, why does the same GC president continue for so many years?
10 March 2025 | Dear Aunt Sevvy, If Ted Wilson admires Ellen White so much, why doesn’t he follow her counsel? “I have been shown that ministers should not be retained in the same district year after year, nor should the same man long preside over a conference. A change of gifts is for the […] Source: https://atoday.org/aunt-sevvy-why-does-the-same-gc-president-continue-for-years/
Tuesday: The Song of My Beloved
Daily Lesson for Tuesday 11th of March 2025
In amazing ways, God has manifested His love and righteousness amid the cosmic conflict. Yet, some might ask, Should God have done more than He has done to prevent and/or remove evil? We have seen a cosmic conflict framework that indicates that God has acted in order to respect the free will necessary for the maximal flourishing of love relationships between Him and humanity. Further, He has apparently acted within moral constraints, or rules of engagement, within the context of a cosmic dispute over His character, which can be settled only by the demonstration of His love.
Read Isaiah 5:1-4. Who is speaking in these verses? Whom is Isaiah speaking about? Whom do the vineyard and vineyard owner represent? What is the significance of the actions of the vineyard owner on behalf of the vineyard? What is the result?

In these verses, Isaiah sings a song of his beloved, a vineyard. The vineyard owner is God Himself, and the vineyard represents God’s people (see, for example, Isaiah 1:8, Jeremiah 2:21). But the implications here can also be expanded relative to God’s broader work in this world. According to these verses, the vineyard owner (God) did everything that reasonably could be expected to ensure the flourishing of His vineyard. The vineyard should have produced good grapes, but it produced only “wild grapes,” which other translations refer to as “worthless.” Indeed, the Hebrew wording here literally could be translated stink-fruit. God’s vineyard brings forth rotten grapes.
Isaiah 5:3 shifts to God Himself speaking, inviting people to “judge” between Him and His vineyard. And, in Isaiah 5:4, God Himself sets forth the all-important question: “ ‘What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes, did it bring forth wild grapes?’ ” (NKJV). What more could He do? How fascinating that He even asks others to judge what He has done.

When you look at the cross, where God offered Himself as a sacrifice for all our sin, how do His words—“ ‘What more could have been done to My vineyard that I have not done in it?’ ”—take on an utterly amazing significance? |

Editorial: Nos guste o no, la política es inevitable
Casi siempre que un artículo en Adventist Today menciona algún asunto que discuten los políticos, recibimos respuestas enfadadas de algunos lectores. No importa si es un comportamiento tratado directamente en la Biblia. Incluso podría ser algo de lo que habla el propio Jesús. Si un político tiene una opinión al respecto, se nos critica por […] Source: https://atoday.org/editorial-nos-guste-o-no-la-politica-es-inevitable/
11: What More Could I Have Done – Singing with Inspiration
The studies in this quarters pamphlet encourage us to see God’s Love and Justice, just as we may sing in
Hymn 79 – O Love of God, How Strong and True! which is a beautiful theme hymn for our studies.
Our Sabbath afternoon introduction to this weeks’ lesson study tells us “the king had always, and in every case, acted out of love for his people” just as we sing in 
The King Of Love My Shepherd Is – Hymn 197. This hymn comes again to us on Sunday, helping us then to state that
Faith Is The Victory – Hymn 608. Sunday closes with our learning that Christ “will reign forever and ever”:
Hymn 227 – Jesus Shall Reign.
A number of times this week we are reminded about our dear Jesus having died on the cross to save us. This invokes the response: In
The Cross Of Christ I Glory – Hymn 237, all because
For God So Loved The World – Hymn 78. Jesus then says to us
I Gave My Life For Thee – Hymn 281.
We are being reminded constantly that “God is perfectly just and righteous” adding to
Hymn 21 – Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise.
Friday’s study time closes with
Rejoice, The Lord Is King – Hymn 221.
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.”
