What a blessing to be able to be among the audience in this particular Sabbath service. What an opportunity we had to sit behind Elder and Mrs. Wilson, the first family of the SDA church. Got to shake their hands. We really came there to hear and see them in person.
Praise The Lord for such presence of the Holy Spirit as evidenced by orderliness, quality music with controlled instruments and proclamation of God's Holy Word
God doesn't cover our sins, they are forgiven and blotted out. That's like saying He can to save us in sin instead of from sin. God help us. God bless everyone.
Pastor Bachelor: Look into the early discovery of Black Smokers on the bottom of the ocean. I remember watching a documentary when they went to go collect a stack from a black smoker. They're underwater vehicle by accident hit a different smoker and it fell. They were all very sorry because they said that must have taken millions and millions and millions of years to form. To their great surprise when they went back three and a half years later to the same field they found that the black smoker chimney they had knocked over had already re-accumulated over ⅓ of its original size!
Bereans denied the Doctrine of the Trinity, a central tenet of orthodox Christianity, and this refusal to recognize the triune nature of God has resulted in a major impasse between the Christadelphians and the Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox churches. Which is similar with James White and the "band"...thank you for the reference...
Revelation 12:10 “And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.” Revelation 12:11 “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” Many people say they are covered by the blood of the Lamb but lack the testimony on how God, in Christ, is changing their life daily (“But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18). Instead of living for Jesus unto the death of self, and possibly ultimate death of the body. So those wasting God’s grace will have killed those who obey Christ Jesus, having the faith of Christ (“knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law; for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified” (Galatians 2:16), as He had faith in the Father when He walked the earth. “They will put you out of the synagogues; yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers God service”(John 16:2). It is written and Thus saith the Lord is extremely important. 10 Commandment keepers will be considered trouble makers to; the worldly Evangelist; Legalistic to the false Protestants; heretics to the Roman Catholic Church (all joined hand in hand). Revelation 12:12 “Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” Revelation 22:20-21 “He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus”
“The church, ENFEEBLED and DEFECTIVE, needing to be REPROVED, WARNED, and COUNSELED, is the only object upon earth upon which Christ bestows His supreme regard.” EG White “Revival signifies a renewal of spiritual life, a quickening of the powers of mind and heart, a resurrection from spiritual death. Reformation signifies a reorganization, a change in ideas and theories, habits and practices.” SM Bk 1 P128 “The MINISTERS must be CONVERTED before they can strengthen their brethren. They should not preach themselves, but Christ and His righteousness. A REFORMATION is needed among the people, but it should first begin its purifying work with the MINISTERS.” 1 T 469 It has often been presented to me that there should be LESS SERMONIZING by MINISTERSs, acting merely as local pastors of churches, and that greater personal efforts should be put forth. Our people should not be made to think that they need to listen to a sermon every Sabbath. Many who listen frequently to sermons, even though the truth be presented in clear lines, LEARN BUT LITTLE. Often it would be more profitable if the Sabbath meetings were of the nature of a Bible-class study. 21 LtMs Lt 192 “The GREATEST HELP that can be given our people is to teach them to work for God, and to depend on Him, NOT ON THE MINISTERS. Let them learn to work as Christ worked.” 7T 19 (SEE Eph 4:12 for the clergy job description) “We become overcomers by helping others to overcome.

KJV Psalms 32:1
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
The difference comes down to semantics. "Covered" and "blotted out" can be two ways of saying the same thing
You are doing it.
