Looks at the death drive of men in relation to making the woman the life giver in the relationship.

From the begining of the sexual revolution in 1960 we have transformed to almost a completely sexually free society. Research indicates that this will lead to the end of our civilisation within 3 generations. We are now almost half way into the third generation with 15 years remaining.

How Long has Christ been oour High priest? It is mistakenly believed by many that Christ was only qualified to be a priest once we lived on the earth. These verses are often used to support this idea

Heb 2:17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people. For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

Heb 8:6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.

Heb 5:7-9 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared; Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

But Paul warns us that many are dull to understand the truth of the Melchizidek Priesthood

Heb 5:11-12 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

What is the cause of this dullness?

All heaven suffered in Christ's agony; but that suffering did not begin or end with His manifestation in humanity. The cross is a revelation to our dull senses of the pain that, from its very inception, sin has brought to the heart of God. Every departure from the right, every deed of cruelty, every failure of humanity to reach His ideal, brings grief to Him. Ed 263

Christ is the lamb slain from the foundation of the world and at the height of the 1888 message E.J Waggoner clearly explains this issue

It is quite commonly assumed that the Word was made flesh in the person of Jesus of Nazareth eighteen hundred years ago, in order that He might learn man's condition and needs, and thus be able to sympathise with and help them. That this is a mistaken idea can be seen by a moment's reflection, as well as by plain statements of Scripture. The Psalmist says, "He knoweth our frame; He remembereth that we are dust." Ps. 103:14. Again, "O Lord, Thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising. Thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, Thou knowest it altogether." Ps. 139: 1-4. It is He upon whom men must depend for a knowledge of themselves. "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it? I the Lord search the heart, I try the reins." Jer. 17: 9. "O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps." Jer. 10: 23.

All this was as true eighteen hundred years before Christ as eighteen hundred years after. God knew men as well, and sympathised with them as much, four thousand years ago as He does to-day. When the children of Israel were in the wilderness, "in all their affliction He was afflicted." Isa. 63: 9. The prophet could say of a truth, seven hundred years before Christ, "Surely He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows." Isa. 53: 4. God was in Christ, not that He might know men, but in order that man might know that He does know them. In Jesus we learn how kind and sympathising God has always been, and have an example of what He will do in any man who will fully yield to Him.

Still in the Flesh.-"Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God; and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God." 1 John iv. 2, 3. To confess Christ, it is not enough to believe that He once lived and suffered and died and rose again. We must confess not merely that He did come in the flesh, but that He "is come in the flesh." He is a present Saviour. As in all the afflictions of the Israelites of old He was afflicted, so now "we have not an High Priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities." Heb. iv. 15. He still feels everything that touches us, for He is still in the flesh. Even in the heavenly places. He is still "the Man Christ Jesus." 1 Tim. ii. 5. He is our forerunner, that is, one of the brethren who has gone before to prepare a place for the rest. When He comes again, He will come in the flesh for His flesh did not see corruption and the same flesh that went into the grave also ascended to heaven. "He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens that He might fill all things." Eph. iv. 10. E.J. Waggoner, Present Truth UK, December 19, 1895

How do we understand the Investigative judgment in the light of the truth that God and His Son do not Judge and condemn people? John 5:22; John 8:15

Presentation Notes
http://maranathamedia.com/article/view/character-templates-for-the-judgment

This presentation is a continuation of the previous one called Character Templates for the Judgment.
In this presentation we look at some of the reasons why it took until 1844 for the human race to become open to the idea of the non-judgmental character of God.

Satan's separation of justice and mercy is an abomination to God. This abomination desolates the truth about God and His Son and hardens humanity to the point of becoming unreachable.

Israel was scatters for 2520 years for their refusal to embrace the truth of God's character.

The story of the woman caught in Adultery and Mary washing Jesus feet give us a template for the judgment of the living at the end of time. This goes in connection with Moses who gives us a template for the judgment of the righteous dead.

An Appeal to our Leaders for the ability to Keep Passover and our new approach to sharing our books.

Lessons on reaching darkened minds

This presentation provides a framework in the Sanctuary to understand the Nature of Christ and how Christ broke down the middle wall of partition with us through His flesh which was our nature of judgment that leads to condemnation

Presentation starts at 23:32
Main Presentation ends at 1:22:05
A 32 min presentation has gone viral presenting a number of claims linking 5G to the Coronavirus. The basis of the theory is that major pandemics of the last 100 years are all related to radio wave/microwave technologies.
In studying history we find in the life of Ellen White in Australia in 1894 the following statement

"For a few weeks, I was quite sick with influenza. This epidemic has caused the sickness of many in the community, and many deaths have also resulted from it. It has been especially fatal to the aged. Not many children have been sick...One day last week there were eleven funerals. Those who eat meat do not recover from the attack as readily as those who do not eat meat. Children do not seem to suffer so much as the adults and the aged. I have been severely attacked, and have not been able to attend meetings for four weeks, but have not given up to take to my bed one day." Letters 29 13/08/1894

Here is proof of a similar virus to today but long before radio or microwaves.
There are things in this presentation that have some similarities to what we believe is true but they are set in an in correct framework thus causing more problems. We would caution the circulation of this video

Principles for resolving apparent conflicts in Scripture and the SOP.
Looks at some seemly conflicting quotes oon the subjects of the Godhead, character of God, Feasts and Reapplication of the Prophetic periods.

Looks at Polycarp, Polycrates and other early church leaders. The problems with the church fathers and the conflict between Jerome and Vigilatius

Today is a sad day marking the 40th anniversay of the official rejection of the Son of God in the Adventist Church. We trace some of this history and its implications

"I stated that the course that had been pursued at Minneapolis was cruelty to the Spirit of God" (Ms. 30, 1889; emphasis supplied).

Here was evidence, that all might discern whom the Lord recognized as His servants.... These men whom you have spoken against have been as signs in the world, as witnesses for God.... If you reject Christ's delegated messengers, you reject Christ (TM 97; 1896).

The rejection of Christ in 1888 has led to a rejection of the God our Pioneers worshipped and now those of us who want to honour our spiritual parents are thrust out of the church our Pioneers raised. is this really the right thing to do? We appeal for a better way, we pray for reconciliation to the the God who led our forefathers and the 1888 message.

God's people are being saturated with videos exposing government and wealthy individuals around the world. Others are predicting a fixed time for the coming of Christ. This is not our message. Our call is to repentance for ourselves and the world. We are called to love all men. Christ never railed against Caesar or attacked the national establishment. He preached the love of God, showed mercy and defended the fatherless and the widow.

It will do you good, and our ministers generally, to frequently review the closing scenes in the life of our Redeemer. Here, beset with temptations as He was, we may all learn lessons of the utmost importance to us. It would be well to spend a thoughtful hour each day reviewing the life of Christ from the manger to Calvary. We should take it point by point and let the imagination vividly grasp each scene, especially the closing ones of His earthly life. By thus contemplating His [1] teachings and [2] sufferings, and the [3] infinite sacrifice made by Him for the redemption of the race, we may [a] strengthen our faith, [b] quicken our love, [c] and become more deeply imbued with the spirit which sustained our Saviour. If we would be saved at last we must all learn the lesson of penitence and faith at the foot of the cross. Christ suffered humiliation to save us from everlasting disgrace. He consented to have scorn, mockery, and abuse fall upon Him in order to shield us. It was our transgression that gathered the veil of darkness about His divine soul and extorted the cry from Him, as of one smitten and forsaken of God. He bore our sorrows; He was put to grief for our sins. He made Himself an offering for sin, that we might be justified before God through Him. Everything noble and generous in man will respond to the contemplation of Christ upon the cross. {4T 374.1}

Many voices are raised to say the end is right upon us.

For those who have been walking in present truth, we know the complete gospel is get to go to the world. There some things that still need to take place.
Keep your eyes of our beloved Saviour, trust in His grace and keep sharing of the non-violent character of God.

As Elijah stepped out of the cave a storm swept across the mountain and an earthquake shook the ground. All seemed to be in commotion, with the heavens on fire and the earth convulsed by forces that seemed about to rend it asunder. All this was in tune with the convulsive spirit of the prophet. What he needed to learn was that, mighty and moving though these forces be, they do not of themselves portray a true picture of the Spirit of God.

Addresses questions about Noah's flood, Elijah and other stories with reference to God's character
