@@briandykeman4056 My friend, we follow truth not a denomination. It's not about joining some club. You don't have to be a S-DA to honor the Lord. We do it because He loved us first, 1 John 4: 19. After all, Jesus did say in John 4: 24, God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit and truth. Amen!
@@briandykeman4056 Brother, truth is the weapon that safeguards you because you won't be deceived even by those who sincerely mean well but are sincerely mistaken. Blessings to you.
I believe all the words of Jesus are soon to be fulfilled including His second coming. Lets pray we keep His commandments and the testimony of Jesus to endure unto the end.
You are where I was about 4 years ago! Born again Evangelical seeking truth but finding only false prophets and prosperity doctrines. Doug Batchelor’s video was a suggested video on RU-vid so I watched it. After about a month I called a local SDA Church where I was re-baptized and the rest is history. I have found the Bible truth and the Spirit of Prophecy. Get a copy of 1911 version of Great Controversy. God bless and welcome to the “remnant church”

I'm a bricklayer and we were asked to work on the coming Saturday. Every one said okay but one man. I was new at the company, so they informed me that he is 7th day Adventist, and they don't work on the Sabbath. I had never considered the subject and was deeply troubled by the possible implications. So that evening I prayed and asked for help with this issue. That prayer was answered with a series of dreams in which I was shown much more than I thought I had asked about. I was shown Adventism represented as a house that the builders stopped working on before the house was fully completed. The doors and windows and such were never installed. It was made implicitly clear to me that the house afforded no protection, specifically because of that fact! Beloved, I was shown the Adventists did not follow "further light" as our dear Sister White, warned that we MUST do! Therefore, the call to "Come out of Babylon", now ironically applies to Adventists as well! "Those who have already received Great Light, are the most reticent to receive Further Light." Steeples, rejection of the Feast Days, Pagan Holy Days, no Baptism in the Holy Spirit, no Restoration of the Names and more are issues that only a very few Adventists are tackling. The "Seven Thunders" are sounding, but only INDIVIDUALS can hear. Don't forget, Yahuah Alohim is an egalitarian. He planed it this way. You WERE warned to "let no man take your crown". (Revelation 3:11) When does He ever warn about something that is NOT going to happen? (other than Nineveh) The Ninevites are the "judges" to all who fail to head a clear warning from Heaven. Be very careful how you respond, to THIS warning. If what I say is not True my name is stricken from the Book of Life. If you ignore this, YOURS may be. Please be a Berean, crack a Received Text Bible, get on your knees...ALONE...and find out if this is Truth or not. Yahusha the Messiah will see, and honor your efforts. Truth is for SEEKING, not assuming. Shalom Beloved!
Hello Pastor Jean and Pastor Doug! Can you please attach closed captioning for this sermon? It would be so helpful! Then I can watch too! Thank you! God bless you and this ministry!
Blessings to you and yours 🙏 Pastor Bachelor. What a wonderful Message! 🙏🙏❤️❤️ I have learned that prayer must BECOME as necessary to us as Breathing. We just can't live without it. Every day ,a few times a day Only When it becomes THAT INDISPENSABLE will IT MOVE Mountains. GOD Says, HE Is our FATHER, CREATOR AND HUSBAND. Can we get along without Communicating with our spouses. NO. Love this sermon. Pastor Bachelor 🙏 please SHOW the SCRIPTURES on the screen, you're a great speaker but, we can't keep up with you. Am not the only one. If we have the texts we can study afterwards or keep up with you better. We pause, look for the text and get back to you. Please. I don't want to change Pastor. Thank you 🤩❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏💥
I have some words of encouragemenr in the midst of whats going on. It might sound wierd, but it is for real. Its long because I've tried to and any faqs! Hopefully this will answer some of those nagging questions - Why does evil exist (and how can it be fixed), how is the whole "Jesus dying" thing really relevant to anything? To you? if you still have any questions let me know x First, what is evil? Well, the Bible calls it the breaking of God's laws - and God intends for this world to be perfect in every way. He also wants us to have perfect lives too - thats a part of His plan. But we dont though, do we? Every one of us have lied, stolen (even tiny things count as stealing), spoken badly to our parents and had embarrassing and detestable thoughts in our thought life. The Bible calls this "sin", the breaking of God's laws. You might think, so what? Everyone lies and thinks bad things about others! Its human! You're right. That's exactly what the Bible says, we're "born into sin" and that "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" - Romans 3:23 Notice something? God's intent for us APPEARS to be the exact OPPOSITE of human nature and desires! Not lying, not stealing, and having a perfect thought life is God's standard for us, so if it is God's standard, and we were made in "God's image", Why don't we meet it then? Well, Remember Adam and Eve and when they sinned. Before sin they were perfect in thought word and DEED completely, just as God intended, and they had a perfect relationship with Him. ALL was perfect in every way. But after the first sin occured due to Satan's tempting in the Garden, it destroyed that part of us that was morally perfect and in perfect harmony with God - His morals, standard, and love. Satan took over these things and so while we kept certain things, the ability to be thinking individuals with unique personalities, the moral part (affecting how our thoughts, actions and personalities operate) was damaged. To the point where we are "opposed" to God, hence His nature and standards being the opposite of what we see as reasonable or possible. The bible says "apart from God we can do nothing". Without Him, it will 100% feel "opposite", unreasonable and alien to us. Only WITH Him can we gain victory in these things. Why doesn't God just let sin off and leave it? The Bible describes God as a "righteous judge", many wonder why God doesn't just let sin off and leave it, but He can't. Why? That's like a if a judge let off a murderer who broke the state law. Everyone would attack that judge and call Him corrupt, saying that he had not done right and should be fired for failing to punish the murderer for his evil. AND to completely love and be good as God is, means you need to, in turn, hate all forms of evil. You can't truly love good unless you hate the existence of evil. This means that God needed, as a righteous judge to punish sin with the ultimate penalty of death - expressing His hatred of evil - and separation from His presence forever. Hence Hell. "The soul that sins shall die (in Hell and suffer damnation)" - Ezekiel 18:20 BUT God, who is also perfect love, did not want to see His creation tortured and cut off from Him. He cares so much for is that He couldn't bear to see us fall into Satans hands and suffer death, even though we broke the law and deserve to be cut off from perfection forever Because of justice, God could not leave sin and evil unpunished, BUT because of LOVE, God provided someone else to take that punishment on our behalf, satisfying both justice (by punishing the evil committed), and love (by sparing OUR lives) despite our sin. God sent His own SON - think about that. His *Son*, the one whom He loved infinitely (the same way He loves us). God allowed Him to take the pain we deserved, He took ALL of Gods wrath for every single sin you and I have committed. He was punished brutally and completely so that we do not have to be punished. Back in the courtroom scenario: He paid the "fine" at His own expense (His life had to be morally perfect on this Earth, then He had to be killed as a sinless sacrifice on our behalf). So when He returns to remove all evil from the face of the Earth, we can be spared and free because Christ has already BEEN punished on our behalf. He then rose again on the third day, conquering not only life and sin and temptation, but DEATH. GOD HAS POWER OVER DEATH. "I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live (immortally and eternally in Heaven when I return)" - John 11:25,26 ALL we have to do is accept it by faith. Faith alone in Christ alone. Religion = rules to be saved The gospel = Christ saved us already we just have to believe it by faith. If you lack faith (as I did before), pray. He will make it strong it time. Trust Him as you would trust those close to you. He knows you even better than that. He created you and knows you inside out. ...WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? What does it actually mean for us? It means we can be free from the penalty of damnation. Not only that but we can be restored to Him and recreated into His moral image AGAIN as long as we accept Jesus having paid the price for us and accept Him as our Lord, the one who is in the front seat of our lives. He has a plan for your life, He's created you for a purpose. Just remember that. A purpose that includes being recreated into His image, one you can only accomplish through Him and reliance on His power and by following HIS way of life. What does this new way of life entail? It entails love, true love and service and aid to others, to "love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength" and "love your neighbour as you love yourself" Matthew 22:37, 39. Sharing the message of Christ's death, resurrection and soon return on this Earth to give justice OR mercy depending on what the person chose. Sound "opposite" again? God knows it sounds opposite, which is why, as The Bible states, this is NOT something we can do alone. It's not in our nature. We need a new nature in the front seat, and the first step is to repent (turn from and reject our sin, pursuing the opposite direction and drawing close to God) Christ will give us an actual DESIRE to do these things. Through the Holy Spirit, sent by Him to us after the ascension. He speaks to us through thoughts of love and truth and conviction, verses, ideas, prayers and He guides us so that we gain a desire to follow God and be able to do these "opposite" things through Him. "With man it is impossible, but with God, NOTHING is impossible!" - Matthew 19:26 What is the way FOR though? Firstly its to save you from sin - the only way to gain victory over sin and not have it as your master is through having Christ as your master and following His aid to resist the devil's temptations. Christ lived down here for 33 years suffering EVERY FORM of temptation that you have ever faced - "who in every respect [has] been tempted as we are, yet without sin" Hebrews 4:15. Therefore He is able to help us through our struggles. When the devil knows people have left his camp, he always tries harder with more temptations and evil attacks. BUT - His way is also there to guard and teach you daily in the midst of this (and despite this) sinful, selfish world. The path He wants you to walk is a path of committment and love - its not about rules and regulations to save us - what Christ did GAVE us salvation. All we need is faith. The rest, the "fruits of good works (the will to obey and follow Him)", are what come through true, maturing faith. It's all about faith and the relationship God wants with you just like before sin arrived. God preferred His own Son to be tortured And *killed* to give a chance to us (who broke His law of perfection) so that we can live as His children again. He wants us to love and trust and worship Him. What if I still find myself sinning after I have accepted Christ? That's why Christ died, For our sin. His death doesn't fix us in a snap like that, but it does protect us from the damnation that our past, present and future sins would bring without Jesus. It's a process - a lifelong process - of God bringing you back to Him, away from the destructive pleasures of sin (greed, selfish temptations, trampling on people to gain). This process takes a *lifetime*, as it does for all, but NEVER give up, when you fall, know Christ paid for that sin you committed already - just acknowledge your sin and ask for forgiveness - and you can get back up again because He already bore your guilt and shame. Regardless of the darkness you are in or the extent or frequency of the sins you have committed or will commit, regardless of how doubtful you may feel, know that Jesus UNDERSTANDS completely and He is faithful. "those who come to Me, I will by no means cast out" - John 6:37 ...HOW DO I LEARN MORE? Don't know where to start? Note down the Gospel of "John", or "Luke" (for a more detailed account of it all). Remember that He will "NEVER - and that means never - leave you, NOR forsake you" - Deuteronomy 31:6 You can go to Him with them and be assured that He loves you and is for you. Keep your heart open to Him and remember that if we pray for Christ to enter our lives, He will. "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only begotten Son, that whomever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life". - Thanks for reading if you did. I just felt that I should tell you regardless. Let me know if you have any more questions or if you need any clarification on anything xx
I needed this. The part where you mentioned that if we lack faith, pray and He will make it strong in time. I’ve been struggling with my faith in Jesus. It all started after I decided to turn back from my sins when I backslid and was lukewarm. After turning away from my sins, I got attacked by guilt feelings and feeling unforgiven and condemned and got hit with blasphemous thoughts. Few days later, I got hit with doubts and unbelief (felt like God isn’t here or that He doesn’t exist) and it seemed to get worse each day. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I decided to forsake my old ways again and I confessed sins I struggled with and did, I suffered from lust, greed, envy, jealousy, slothness. It’s embarrassing to confess them but I know it’s necessary. I’ve confessed them before and I’ve prayed and fasted but I’m not sure why I’m still getting hit with doubts and feel worse as each day goes by. I don’t want my faith to die out completely. I still pray and I still try to steer clear of sin and I still fast whenever I can. I’m not sure if I’m going by faith or feelings when it comes to doubt. I also noticed I don’t feel conviction of my sins and my my ability to discern what is good and bad seems cloudy. I’m aware of the sins I’ve committed but I feel nothing in my heart like as if my heart has hardened. People have told me the fact that I im trying not to sin (because it makes you gathered from God) and im still praying and reaching out to Christ followers and attending Bible studies and listening to sermons or preaching videos, shows that I still have faith. But I’m not sure if that’s true. I just hope I can come out victorious and full of faith and a new heart and steadfast spirit. I’ve been lacking faith because of the doubts and unbelief. I don’t want to doubt but it’s much easier said than done. I need the faith to overcome doubts and unbelief but those are the same things that brings down my faith. I want to have full faith and be able to trust Jesus as well. I can’t expect God to answer me if I have doubts when I pray
It would be nice to not have church business and non worship announcements included in the videos. I have never understood why the church does church business during Sabbath when the information is clearly printed in the Church bulletin for all to quietly read.
Iam from India. Iam you're new subscriber. I have a doubt. Please help sir. Why did God choose Mount Sinai to give the 10 commandments. Was there any special reason? My English is poor so please tolerate sir. One small request sir please enable subtitles in English in your videos sir. It will be very helpful people like me. Thank you sir.
Hello! Please send your question to us on our website by using the link below, and you will receive a response.
