Could WiFi-enabled devices be harmful to our health? You cannot see it or hear it but Wi-Fi blankets our homes, our schools and our cities. Australia's safety agency says there's no evidence of harm, but that's not the same as saying its safe. A growing number of scientists are concerned that the widespread use of Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi-enabled devices could be slowly making us sick.

Sabbath School Lesson No. 7, First Quarter 2016 presented by Gary Hullquist featuring the Sabbath rests, the parable of the sower, and building on the Rock.

A small insight into the risk the Father took to save humanity. What a cost! The more we understand the risk the more we will appreciate the value humanity is worth. He gave all to redeem all. May it touch your heart as it did mine

This provides an overview of the message and putting the pieces together

Who is the one who controls death? Many think God is the one who controls death but the Bible says Satan is the one who has the power and dominion of death. Death is the enemy of God and God does not need His enemies to help Him end the great controversy. He does not put people to death using a principle directly at war with his government.

Jesus said; "If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love." What are His Father's Commandments? At the very top of the list is the 10 Commandments. Jesus kept the the Ten Commandments including the one that said You shall not kill. Jesus never killed anyone and thus He demonstrated or fulfilled the meaning of the law You shall not Kill. 

Some people say that this commandment should say "You shall not murder" and that judicial killing is lawful. Yet Jesus never did this. In this presentation we examine the sixth commandment closely and what it means. 

What is the meaning of the Parable that Jesus told concerning the Rich man and Lazarus. Did you truly teach us of an eternally burning hell when sinners can cry out for water to saints in heaven? In this episode we explore the meaning of Jesus words in the light of the rest of the Bible.

It is extremely simple to take isolated portions of the Bible and put them together to build a case that destroys the truth that God truly is loving, gentle, and kind. It has often been said to me, “You say that God does not kill people but the Bible plainly tells you that He does.” When you line the texts up they appear to present a compelling case for many people. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. Genesis 6:7 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven; Genesis 19:24 We could list several more texts like this. There are many stories in the Old Testament that seem to read very plainly but all of the stories combined are nothing compared to the mass slaughter of humanity described in the New Testament. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, (8) And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. (9) And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. (10) And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Revelation 20:7-10 It states that the wicked will be as the sand of the sea? How many grains of sand are there on a sea shore? We might propose a conservative figure of 100 Billion people apparently all shrieking and howling in the worst kind of agony. This makes the Old Testament narratives seem like kindergarten fables in comparison. Many Christians, in some strange form of triumph, read these passages and proclaim that it proves that the God they “worship” inflicts horrendous agony on billions and billions of people for rebelling against Him by roasting them alive for good measure. Admittedly the texts that speak of God seemly commanding the hacking to death of little babies are strategically overlooked or avoided except for the most hardened and callous individuals who somehow manage to defend this murderous behaviour as godly. What they consider as proof triumphant actually proves to be their greatest defeat. Who could rationally conceive of living eternally in the presence and offering worship on bended knee to such a horrendous being, while truly trying to convince yourself that you should never feel desperately afraid that you also might be killed one day? If the correct reading of these stories means that God sends sheets of flames from Himself directly onto the wicked, while all the righteous simply watch the proceedings like a movie from the walls of Zion hearing the shrieking and howling of the damned, then realistically would the righteous really rejoice when all their loved ones who rejected the truth are all burned alive (whether briefly or perpetually) without any mercy? Is there some sort of righteous satisfaction that the God you worship not only kills your wayward family members but tortures them first and slowly destroys them in the most unimaginable horror? I suppose some might say that God will wipe away every tear from their eyes and remove the former things from their memory. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Revelation 21:4 Is this eternal bliss to be desired of, or is it the destroying of evidence by a character that is unimaginably cruel and vicious? There is something very unsettling about this picture for any rational person that has experienced the joys of love within marriage, or cradled a baby in their arms, or snuggled into the loving embrace of a parent, or even those whom have cared for their precious animals like a horse, dog, or cat. The use of these texts in this manner is often accompanied with the assertion that we must take the Bible as it reads or that we must read it literally and accept these plain statements as proof that God will kill the wicked. This video is from the book called Agape.

At the General Conference Session of Seventh-day Adventists this year a vote will be taken to allow individual divisions to decide for themselves whether or not to Ordain women as pastors. This video supports Pr Batchelor and Pr Bohr's appeal not to do this and also appeals for consistency regarding the Father and Son as revealed in the Bible. It also appeals to remember Ted Wilson's opening address to the Church in 2010.

On the problem of jesting, kidding, joking and other forms of deception at the 2013 Tabernacles Camp Meeting.

The Adventist Church is just about to release (in about 2 weeks) a new movie about the Adventist pioneers. The movie cost approx $6 million to produce.

Specific details about movie at 36:50

The company hired to do the actual production is called Zed filmworks. http://www.zedfilmworks.com/ This group specialize in horror and thriller movies. They claim to have selected the cast and crew. The woman who played Ellen White played the role of some form of she wolf and her bio page shows her in a demon possessed state

www.imdb.com/media/rm1932588544/nm1690432?ref_=nmmi_mi_all_sf_6

The film she did after playing Ellen White is this immoral film
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3919218/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_2

Can Christ and Belial work together? Can light and darkness be in harmony. Can the seed of Israel be birthed in the womb of Moab? Could Abraham give his seed to an Egyptian to produce an heir? Cast out the bond woman and her son.

Appeal to all those in responsible positions to stop this film. May our appeals be made with heartfelt urgency and care for our people while maintaining respect for leaders. If people involved in violent immoral and demonic MA15 and R rated movies are playing in this film then Satan can claim this film as his his just as much as the church can. The enemy birthed this film and therefore it is much his child and that of the church. Beware.

These actors are just doing their job and I am sure they acted very well but should the church engage these people to represent our pioneers? This is apostasy at the Jordan. Right at the gates when the Pope will speak in the US congress, the church releases a film made by people that play whores, murderers and demons. Shall we see greater abominations than these?

2 Cor 6:14  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
