My dear friend, I am a little housewife. I don't earn any income. My husband works as a day laborer on other people's land and earns a little money, with part of that money my husband and I go to preach in other villages and we do programs with the children and the elderly there and we show them the truth of the Bible so that they can accept Jesus in the right way. Can know. And for this I need travel expenses. You cooperate and pray for me. We go to 10 villages and do preaching work there.

[@dabomaizeogu8529]

Compromise for peaceful coexistence outside the commandments of God. This is at the foundation of the great controversy. We who live in the end time should be careful that we do not lead the church of God into dis obeying God's law because of compromise for whatever reason - health, stable economy, etc. May leaders of the world church be weary of COMPROMISE.

[@juliosalinas4436]

It's an amazing lesson to study about the followers of the truth. It's also amazing to see that the majority of my brethren cannot see that apostasy had come into our ranks. The Bible is available to everyone, but few truly accept it as a guide to life. Unbelief predominates alarmingly, not only in the world but also in the church. Many have reached point of denying doctrines that are the very foundation of the Christian faith. IC 64.3 By rejecting the truth, men reject the Author of it. By trampling on God's law, the authority of the Lawgiver is denied. It is as easy to make an (▪︎)idol of false doctrines and theories as it is to carve an idol out of wood or stone. By falsely representing the attributes of God, Satan misleads men to form a (▪︎)false concept of him. (▪︎)Many have enthroned a philosophical idol in Jehovah's place, while the living God, as revealed in his Word, in Christ, and in the works of creation, is worshiped by only a relatively small number. GC 583.1 Exodus 20:4-5 (KJV) Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; Exodus 34:14 (KJV) For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God: But the "chose people of God" did not always follow God: Ezekiel 36:20 (KJV) And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land. Ezekiel 36:21-23 (KJV) But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went. Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went. And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes 1 Corinthians 8:6 (KJV) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. 2 Corinthians 3:17 (KJV) Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. John 17:3 (KJV) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. Mark 12:29 (KJV) And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: All these verses should make us realize that the trinity doctrine is not biblical at all because this doctrine teaches that there are three persons in the Godhead. And this brakes the 1st. & 2nd. Commandments. Yet nobody wants to see this truth. Just as sister White had said: " It is as easy to make an (▪︎)idol of false doctrines and theories as it is to carve an idol out of wood or stone. ( ▪︎ )Many have enthroned a philosophical idol in Jehovah's place, while the living God, as revealed in his Word, in Christ, and in the works of creation, is worshiped by only a relatively small number. The doctrine of the trinity is avoided to be discussed in our churches because the ministers know that if such thing happen he might lose his credentials and will be fired from all or any positions he has. Matthew 15:14 (KJV) Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

[@TreasyGesare-yt5by]

What made a difference is how they Pharisees understood the word of God compared to how we understand the word and they refuse to see the truth even when it's soo sweet and true. Truly the devil hates the word of God and those who diligently follow it.

[@mariethanzundamo1423]

Amen and amen again 🙏 🙌

I haven't heard any sermon/s as the adventist. Maybe,because I don't find myself visiting other churches.

[@no_way00000]

What makes us stand for d truth? Adam and Eve were disabled to do so. David, Peter, Judas, etc. we're among many others who like us thought to stand in d truth. What will make us different from them?

What's wrong with following the pure truth, that's when the devil uses people to oppose the word and Godly people stay strong in the same word of God.

Saul/Paul, who persecuted Christians, thought he was doing God's work.

[@gordonandhollinewhite2214]

Where is today's remnant, who will stand for the truth against the specious arguments of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, who try to justify Sunday observance in Tonga, Samoa, Wallis & Futuna, and parts of Kiribati? Is our own religious system going bad, or can it be redeemed?
