¿Para qué necesitaría alguien preguntar: “¿Quién mató a Goliat?”? Pregúntele a cualquier niño de la Escuela Sabática. Rápidamente te dirá que fue “un niño llamado David”. Esta adorada historia se ha instalado en nuestra cultura occidental, viniendo inmediatamente a la mente en cualquier situación en la que el más débil triunfa sobre el poderoso y […] Source: https://atoday.org/realmente-quien-mato-a-goliat/

As we study end-time events in regard to the mark of the beast, one crucial point that comes through is the difference between how God operates and how the enemy of souls does.
As we have been studying, the central issues in the great controversy between Christ and Satan focus on loyalty, authority, and worship. The prophecies describing the beast power in Revelation 13:1-18, the little horn in Daniel 7:1-28, and the “son of perdition” in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-17 all speak of a power that usurps God’s authority, commands loyalty, and introduces a counterfeit system of worship. And they do so through the use of force, coercion, and at times bribes and rewards — all in order to compel worship.
In contrast, love is the great motivating force of the kingdom of God. Rather than worshiping the beast, God’s people find their greatest joy and highest delight in worshiping Him. They are committed to Him because they know how committed He is to them. There is only one thing that will keep any of us from receiving the mark of the beast in the end time &mdash a love for Jesus so deep that nothing can break our hold upon Him.
In this lesson, we will explore these themes further.
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, June 10.
