Excellent teaching thank you 🙏
Norman, great sermon..blessings.
This has been a great sermon explained wonderfully
Thank you Sir for each and every sermon.
I love listening to you and I also know that the church members are wise to the lack of teaching about these end of times. They talk about it all the time.
Some do not even go to church and some groups have broken away and started their own groups.
I recently had a chance to worship with these people.
Today, this segment you are giving was given as church.
God Bless you and yours and all congregation listening that we may be ready when Our Lord comes.
Amen brother keep preaching.
I ran across u for the first time today and was very blest
U are a true physician. U take your time to explain
U study deep , and it us without frenzied excitement. May more people come to know God before it is to late
Ellen G. White the Founder of Adventism
If Ellen White hadn't come along with the idolization of the Sabbath day, basically only Christ-rejecting orthodox Jews would be keeping the Sabbath, something that the Lord Jesus Christ never commanded under the New Covenant.
Amazingly, Ellen White convinced millions of people to keep an abrogated Hebrew ritual law instead of commemorating the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ from the dead on the first day of the week, something Christendom has done for most of its existence. How did she pull this off?
At first there were only a few members in her religious sect, but followers later on who believed in her "visions" and "revelations," made a business selling books with her ideas and doctrines. Ellen White and her husband were alleged to be petty swindlers for selling her visions at camp meetings and through the mail. Her husband said in a letter, "There is much profit left in our pens."
Her main emphasis was that her followers keep the Sabbath day. She convinced them that it was the "seal of God " and the heart of the moral law. She was wrong because in the New Testament the Holy Spirit is the seal of God, and love is the heart of the moral law. Other heresies that she invented are; soul sleeping, no meat eating, the investigative judgment, no hell, and the erroneous view of biblical prophecy concerning the United States, Sunday laws and the mark of the beast.
Thinking that they're in the "remnant church" and thus not taking the mark of the beast, it is said that this psychological pull makes it difficult for some people to leave 7th Day Adventism.
@@edaguirre8952 You called Seventh Day Adventism "a sect." Very ignorant statement, brother. May I remind you Adventists have the highest number of hospitals, clinics and schools (both k-12 and higher institution) than all the protestant denominations in the entire world? The Catholics are of course leaders in these area but they're not protestants. Plus, to say Ellen White brought the Sabbath Day restoration is like saying Martin Luther brought "Justification by Faith." Neither did, but Holy Spirit restored these doctrines to us and for us. What makes the Sabbath a special "Holy" day is the presence of God. It's like going on a date with the woman your love. The date is only special because of the person you're with. So, if you LOVE the Lord, you'll keep His day and be with him (Commandment #4.) Additionally please study how Sunday became honored among Christians in history. Hint: look at the name. "Sun" day. It's a day pagans worshipped the Sun god. Study Emperor Constantine and how he changed it. Also, lest people call you ignorant, don't refer to seventh-day Adventists as Ellen White "followers." We don't follow her. We follow Jesus. She is actually one of our founders. Is she an anointed prophet? Yes. Now regarding meat eating, that's only a recommendation but it's good for you. Try it. Even science confirms you'll live longer. The longer you live, the longer you serve the Lord and lead souls to Christ. That's the point. See things in the right context, brother. Continue to pray and study study study and the Lord will lead you to the truth. That's what happened to me. I continued to study with prayer. I became SDA even though I was born a Baptist.
@@Newtttton Amen.🕊
Glory to God in the highest.🔥
Thankful for these messages; so needed; not being given in churches. So we keep bearing His death (suffering) while delivering His truths in love. Now makes sense.
A very important message to hear and to share. May all who listen to this message be saved in God's soon coming kingdom 🙏🏻
Have spent many years stressing to those *in church how important the Word is, though many have told me how unimportant it is, as a new Christian. Tried to ignore their sayings and kept learning on my own, and He has blessed me with this truth from you here and am sharing worldwide. Told those in churches, Matt 24: 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.
Thank you Lexington’s Adventist Church for inviting such a preacher, and for sharing it with us!
Thank you for these sermons.
Thank you
Beautiful message Pastor thank you
Thank you for this wonderful message of hope describing the last day Adventist people that we are living now..May our good Lord bless you more in His plain truth proclaiming..
“In this fearful time, just before Christ is to come the second time, God's faithful preachers will have to bear a still more pointed testimony than was borne by John the Baptist. A responsible, important work is before them; and those who speak smooth things, God will not acknowledge as His shepherds. A fearful woe is upon them.” 1T, 321.2.
Thank you so much Doc. I am so blessed.
Awesome message!
Amen
The word of God is a mystery no one is really know the divine plan of God
Amazing 35 years in church and learnt nothing! Only these videos can one learn…the few who are willing to share truth.
Also, thank you for not yelling out and pounding the pulpit.
I cannot stand being yelled at and just close down.
Very powerful, and educational,just what I need for the light.
Testimonies to Ministers 233.2 Says the oil in the lamp of the 5 wise virgins is the character of Jesus. His righteous is what the 5 foolish virgins are lacking.
Thank you for this whole series, it has certainly put new perspective on certain aspects of the times we live in and what to expect in the near future. You have also added insight on the interpretation of biblical prophecy that I appreciate very much as it has helped me understand more fully what God is telling us as a church and as individual humans.
One question I have is: is there any significance between the number of virgins and the number of horns mentioned in Revelation?
May God protect and bless you as you continue to share the truth with the world. It may interest you to know that I am from Zimbabwe. God bless you - Roma Beets
The number of virgins has nothing to do with the number of horns in Revelation, as far as I know. The horns in Revelation represent the number of kingdoms that would be set up (Europe) when the Pagan Roman Empire fell. A horn depicts a crown - or the ‘head’ of a nation.
@@theway5563 thank you for clarifying. May God continue to bless your ministry and may many souls be won to the kingdom.
We must not be prideful. I've been studying the seventh day Adventist and different ones believe different things like everyone.
Jesus says that His remnant church will have wheat to harvest and tares to burn. The shaking is coming soon: whereby, the tares will be shaken out. SDA’s know very well our fundamental beliefs, but some (the tares) don’t want to be the ‘peculiar’ people the Bible says we must be. Many have allowed the world to fill them; whereby, there is no room left for Jesus. They fell asleep and did not carry extra oil with them (the Holy Spirit). They have an artificial righteousness. We must be transformed by the power of Christ thru the Holy Spirit to have Christ’s righteousness - not just be covered by it. We must be changed. We must die to self or there is no room for the Holy Spirit to do his work of restoration in us by the power he can impart to us from Jesus so we can become re-created and once again have the image Adam was created with. Divinity can reside in us - but we must cooperate with the Spirit and obey the truth that the Holy Spirit leads us to. We will then be man blended with the power of divinity. If we refuse to accept and obey what the Spirit leads us to, He is cannot complete our total restoration process.
Adventists should put on the whole armour of God. The whole armour of God is also consist of the 9 volumes of the Testimonies For The Church. See 8T298.
" The Testimonies of the Spirit of God( The Testimonies For the Church are referred too here) are given to direct men to His Word which had been neglected. Now if their messages are not heeded, the Holy Spirit is shut away from the soul. " 1SM 46.

Thank you for a timely message.
Sister White is teaching that it will be the people who will ask for the Sunday law and I am hearing the Preacher say there is a surprise agitation before the Sunday law implementation. Did I get this correctly 🤔 Should we prepare for another crisis before the Sunday Law is legislated?
I am asking here since I do not know how to get hold of the Preacher.
Protestant America will advocate for the Sunday law behind closed doors . That's why she said it will move in darkness, so it will be a surprise to many people who don't know what's going on because they are too caught up with other things thus catching them by surprise. But it won't be to those who are advocating for it . Also they can be surprised by the timing of the Sunday law it coming at a time when that they wasn't looking for it to come .

This is not only those in the Adventist church. I believe these things but do not belong to a building with a denomination title. LET none of us suppose we are that special.
I am wondering what Bible you are using?
I'm presuming it's the New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures......that's what Jehovahs Witnesses use. I use the King James
All ten virgins slept.
All twelve disciples were completely unprepared for their future when Jesus' prophecies came true.
Are we better or different; do you and I somehow not fit into God's prophecy of our future?
Isaiah 42:19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD'S servant?
Wanted badly to learn His Word; none available. Knew Jesus when born again, but wanted to know about Him in the Word. Lots of monsters in churches, scattering after Jesus gathers. Tried to filled churches with sincere Sunday Christians; the abusers with their violence within. So now on the outside spreading these messages from here and other studies online to them worldwide in peace, w/o all the church attacks.
Seventh day is the rest day? Bible did not clear the Sabbath day. On Saturday. This not the love God
Are you saying that the wise virgins can never be angry or annoyed at all under any circumstances? Jesus himself got angry with the merchants at the temple. So where do you draw line the between these two groups, simply because a person loses his temper over some unrelenting circumstances that he is part of the foolish virgins ?
Jesus anger was in relation to His Father's glory. That's why we are told to study His last hours. No anger just pity.
@@graceforthetimes-countryli5970 : Paul himself said be angry and sin not. And Paul got annoyed of Peter over stance about circumcision with regards to the gentile converts . So my question to you is : Do you get angry sometimes?
@@samuelbongcayao3733 yes and it is wrong. The idea of conversion is a complete change of mind. think of it like this- the Lord promises that if we keep our mind on Him we will have perfect peace. So if we are outside of peace it means our eyes are not on Him. We should not be getting angry and we are to strive to be like Christ. 2 Peter 1.
@@graceforthetimes-countryli5970 : Are you saying that Paul was wrong to suggest that we can be angry but sin not. Anger is a big part of our human emotions. If anger is the deciding factor of our entrance or exclusion to heaven , then Moses is excluded because he got angry. Supposed an intruder comes to your house and about to sexually assault any of your children, what level of emotions do you think you’ll experience? 1. Peace and retrieve and let the intruder do what he intends to do. Or 2. Anger and fight tooth and nail. Are you getting what I’m saying ? While conversions happened at one point in a person life, but sanctification is a lifetime process. Meaning until you die. So to suggest that a Christian will automatically belong to the foolish virgins simply because he got angry or annoyed over a valid circumstances where the natural human response is to get emotionally high or be angry is preposterous. Samson wants revenge over his enemies the philistines who plucked out his eyes. And God granted him his request to avenge his enemies at the very end of his life. So to say that we can be so peaceful in every circumstances is not only naive but we are being dishonest of our true human feelings.
@@samuelbongcayao3733 Hi Samuel the conversation is really a blessing as it allows one to truly consider all points. There is righteous anger- that is anger for the cause of God or in defence of another. The anger that is being suggested is when we take things personally. That is why Jesus said we should turn the other cheek, Paul said ( or rather Jesus said through Paul)do not take someone to court but suffer the loss. Sanctification is a life long process in the sense that we have many ingrained issues that God will bring to light over time and we will grow past that. But we are expected to live Christ life and he never took anything personal. Over an over Sis White points out that our frustration and anger is a result of our desire to defend ourselves or make life easy for ourselves in some way.
Read the bible believe in that.
Cindy Nichols - You don’t. The Bible tells us to meet with one another in holy convocation. The SDA is not just another church. It is a movement raised up by Jesus to combine all Protestant truths in one body. Jesus also raised up a prophet for His church. If you read the Bible, then you should know that God always provides His people with a prophet, especially after Papal Rome had kept the truth locked up during the dark ages and murdered all that had the truth & would not comply with Rome’s satanic doctrines. Rome would not allow anyone to have any portion of the Bible. They murdered millions of true Apostolic Christians, and the truth was lost. During the Reformation, many were given much light from God, but when the Reformer died - his adherents did not keep studying so they could come all the way out of Babylon. They still maintained life after death and Sunday sacredness, and knew nothing about the Sanctuary that Jesus was officiating in Heaven on our behalf. God’s true church will have ALL gifts of the Spirit - even the Gift of Prophecy.
Yes I do.
Not going to argue over scripture. Dont tell me what I believe or dont. Dont call Him Jesus. I'll be happier
@@theway5563 I do appreciate such a long reply. But I dont belong to a religion The Seventh day adventist is the closest to the truth I've found. But please dont tell me what I believe. My Father in heaven has been with me as a small child and on up until now. He has provided for me in miraculous ways. And protected me the same. We become fully righteous when Yeshua returns for us. That is when we get dressed in our wedding attire. In other words with pure white robes. Nobody is perfect and my bible says if anyone says he is without sin he is a liar. I understand you believe in Ellen White as a prophetess and In not saying she isnt. My bible also says not to scoff at such things. So I wont but I do believe the mark is an RFID chip and the image made come to life is AI.
This is discouraging to me. Even if you think you're doing "right" and seeking His righteousness, you can still be blinded and rejected, "I never knew you"...
Beautiful message Pastor thank you
