We praise God for the grace of God on the lady that Pr. Mark Finley is speaking about here. She was a mother to me when I was in college. She blessed so many lives, especially those of young people. I am inspired by her faith and courage in the midst of her fight with cancer.

Thank you 💕 so much for the message.May God bless you.

[@vueneonee7144]

Thank Pastor Findley. And thanks to Eric Flickinger for his smiley moderation- it’s so engaging that by God’s grace I am already past lesson 2! Love indeed will conquer all; we don’t have to like the obstinate Jews of old who refused to listen to Christ so many times and ended up at end of Roman crosses themselves….

I thought you said, "Love will conquer all." ?

[@ndamyuwerafaustin5004]

Thank you so much ,for your commitment in sharing gospel news

[@edithdotson5617]

Amen. This lesson like each other before brings us face to face with the real gospel which when ministered whollistically to the loss witnesses to those specifically approached and those observing Christianity. Especially is this true when the health message in the form of simple remedies is skillfully applied with miraculous results. For example when Charcoal is used to relieve food or snake poisoning or some such thing. Or hydrotherapy is used to reduce headache, elevated blood pressure or a dangerous fever. Or an herb is used to help stop serious bleeding. These coupled with fervent prayer provide cause for serious marveling and believing on Jesus' power to restore and save and His intense desire to relieve human suffering.

[@pagtukisapagtooartcapadeso4304]

Practically speaking, the companion book (throughout the years) is not properly circulated/distributed all throughout the world (unions, missions and conferences).
I do hope that it will change.

[@mageetu]

Can you give me the exact name of the companion book you mentioned? I am not having luck locating it and would like to read it.

[@mageetu]

===and who is the author of the book?

[@dougblalock5175]

Sounds kind of like today!

[@MYKBRAVICS]

I have a question about lesson 1.
Why Christ? Is it only him that could save humanity?
Why didn't God send any of the Angels to save man?
Or create another man to save man??
I will be glad to get a response

[@evertonbonner1087]

Question. The first sentence of Tuesday's lesson states 'Throughout the early centries of Christianity, the Christian church grew rapidly, despite imprisonment, torture and persecution.' 1. Is there another church other than The Roman Catholic Church which was responsible for the rapid growth of Christianity? The only church that I know of which was originally responsibility for the rapid spread of Christianity is the Catholic church. 2. Steming from the answer, the next Question, exactly which group of people were being persecuted and by whom? Not getting an adequate answer from my local church.

[@evertonbonner1087]

Please note, I am referring to what we NOW know as Christianity.

A serious citation error with regard to Tertullian's Apology quoted from GC, 41, 42: The quote is not found in paragraph 50, but in chapter 50 (Apology 50)!!!

[@kennymvula4049]

Hello Pastor, there was a question at my Sabbath school class, it stated; Where did sin come from, if pride came into Lucifer and seen began, were did the Pride come from... Is it that God created sin because he created the Devil knowing that he will sin. Did He deliberately create sin to show his fairness?

[@vueneonee7144]

I am not the pastor but I can say something a bit here. The thing to do is to purpose in our hearts to trust God, to do the one thing Lucifer failed at- to love God and obey Him as Master, Commander, Creator. Then other questions become easier and ALL answered in the life of Jesus the Christ

[@user-dq4ir2vw8w]

I have heard many of our pastors answer your question this way: God created lucifer, a perfectly created being. Pride entered his heart, and if we try to understand how that happened, then we would be giving lucifer an excuse for his sin against our loving God.

[@dwightgeorge9585]

hi, i'm not a Pastor as well, allow me to share what i have learned, " sin is a mysterious, unexplainable thing" ( The Signs of The Times, April 28,1890, TA 30.1 ), and based on our Sabbath School lesson, on Sunday April 7th says, " This Angelic being was created perfect. Included in his perfection was freedom of choice - a fundamental principle of GOD's government which runs by love, not coercion. Sin originated with lucifer in heaven itself ". notice also on Monday lesson says, ' The loyal Angels chose to be obedient to CHRIST's loving commands, while one-third of the angels listened to the voice of lucifer, disobeyed GOD, and lost Heaven.
