Religious Liberty is an intricate aspect of what it means to be Adventist. But Walter Veith appears to believe the opposite, arguing that human rights, including the freedom to practice idolatry, are evil. Is this a bridge too far for an Adventist to cross?

Monday: In the Name of Jesus
“If you ask anything in My name, I will do it” (John 14:14, NKJV).
Jesus was not going to be with the disciples much longer. The One who had been their support and encouragement was going to heaven, and the disciples were beginning to feel confused and powerless. But though the disciples would not be able to see Him physically any longer, Jesus gave them a remarkable promise.

Read John 14:1-14. According to verses 13 and 14, Jesus promises to do for us “anything” that we ask in His name. Because of this, we almost always add onto the end of our prayers, “In Jesus’ name, amen.”
When we say this, what do we normally think it means? What does Jesus mean when He encourages us to pray like this? What clues are there in these verses that help us to understand the point He’s making?
When our request is “in the name of Jesus,” we can be certain that the whole machinery of heaven is at work on our behalf. We may not see the angels working all around us. But they are — sent from the throne of heaven in the name of Jesus, to fulfill our requests.
Sometimes when we pray in the name of Jesus, we open our eyes and expect everything to be different around us — but it all looks the same. However, while the power of God may come with dramatic effect, as when Jesus calmed the storm, it may also come in quietness, unnoticed, as when the power of God sustained Jesus in Gethsemane. Something dramatic may not suddenly happen, but that doesn’t mean that God is not at work for us.
| Read again John 14:1-14. As you read, imagine that Jesus is talking directly to you, face to face. What hope and encouragement can you draw from these promises? At the same time, ask yourself, “What things in my life could be standing in the way of having these promises fulfilled for me? What changes must I purpose in my heart to make?” |
Amen!

La fatiga del advenimiento y la Teología de la Última Generación
por Rich Hannon | 14 de agosto, 2022 | El adventismo tiene en su ADN una profunda fascinación por tener La Verdad. Es decir, una comprensión correcta de lo que Dios está revelando a la humanidad. Históricamente la iglesia ha evangelizado desde esta postura, comparando la teología de otras denominaciones con nuestros paradigmas doctrinales y […] Source: https://atoday.org/la-fatiga-del-adviento-y-la-teologia-de-la-ultima-generacion/
