Given the prominence of the theme of The Great Controversy (TGC) in Adventism, and how conditions have changed in society and in the church over the last 165 years, it’s reasonable to use the modernist tool of reason to examine the TGC’s relevance […] Source: https://atoday.org/our-controversy-over-the-great-controversy-part-2-modernisms-pledge-to-reason/

Daily Lesson for Thursday 4th of July 2024
Read Mark 1:14-15. What are the three parts of the gospel message that Jesus proclaimed?
Mark summarizes here the simple and direct message of Jesus. Its three parts are illustrated in the following table:
| Category | Content |
|---|---|
| Time Prophecy | The time is fulfilled. |
| Covenant Promise | The kingdom of God is near. |
| Call to Discipleship | Repent and believe the gospel. |
The time prophecy to which Jesus refers is the 70-week prophecy of Daniel 9:24-27. This prophecy finds fulfillment in the baptism of Jesus, where He is anointed with the Holy Spirit and begins His ministry (Acts 10:38). The amazing 70-week prophecy is illustrated in the following chart:
In this prophecy, one day stands for one year (Numbers 14:34, Ezekiel 4:6). The prophecy began in 457 B.C. with the decree issued by Artaxerxes, king of Persia, completing the work of restoring Jerusalem (see Ezra 7:1-28).
Sixty-nine prophetic weeks would extend to A.D. 27, the time when Jesus was baptized and anointed with the Holy Spirit at the commencement of His ministry.
His crucifixion would take place three and a half years later.
Finally, the completion of the seventieth week would occur in A.D. 34 when Stephen was stoned and the gospel message started going to the Gentiles as well as to the Jews.
When was the last time you studied the 70-week prophecy? How can knowing this prophecy help increase your faith not only in Jesus but in the trustworthiness of the prophetic Word?
