New Great Controversy Week-end Added to This Ministry!
The Lord has impressed upon me to add a
special seminar focusing in on the prophetic message we are to be preaching to
the world – a message that I feel is being the devil is trying to water down
and push under the rug. This week-end will focus on the prophecies and truths
of the Three Angel’s Messages that we have been entrusted with by Yahweh our
heavenly Father to share with the world!

Here is the verse so often spoken without
really understanding the significance of this holy blessing. It is found in
Numbers chapter six. Here’s where we can truly see how putting the real name of
our Father Yahweh in place of the title Lord which is also used for Baal! See
Hosea 2:16-17 in a study Bible. A title is not the same as a personal name.
True, titles offer honor as when someone says “Mr. President.” But the title
President is not the name of the president. The personal name is
In these verses in Numbers six you will notice
that the word LORD is capitalized. This is where the Tetragrammaton YHWH is
found in the Hebrew. There is excellent proof that this name is Yahweh
pronounced Yah-way. This pronunciation is about 99.9 percent sure according to
most Hebrew scholars. Study the issue yourself. Now notice the holy words:
Numbers
23 Speak unto
24 YAHWEH bless
thee, and keep thee:
25 YAHWEH make his
face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
26 YAHWEH lift up
his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
27 And they shall
put MY NAME upon THE CHILDREN, and I WILL BLESS THEM.
Notice our loving heavenly Father told
As in many Scripture verses, saying this prayer
using the title “Lord” will eliminate the blessing because Yahweh said, “put My
NAME upon the children.” He didn’t say, “Put one of My
titles upon them.” Because something is new, does not mean it is not true. The
Sabbath sounds strange to non-Adventists, should we stop teaching it because of
that? Of course not, the sacred names may sound strange to some, but should we
deny this truth and lose the blessings? As for me and my house, we say no.
Truth is truth. When I find truth, I will treasure it, and share it, and not
let it pass me or my house by.
As I was writing this, the Sabbath was ending
on
YAHWEH My Father, bless my son, and keep him.
Make Your face shine upon Him, and be gracious unto
him. YAHWEH lift up Your
countenance upon him, and give him peace. I put your name upon him, and I know
that You will bless him because You have promised. In
your Son Yahshua’s name I pray. Amen. (Num. 6:24-27.)
It felt great for all of us to be able to ask
Yahweh to bless. He so loves us to do that!
It doesn’t matter what age your children are,
when this prayer is prayed the blessing is evoked and hearts are touched. It is
the same for daughters as well as sons. It’s still good in the Christian
dispensation because we are told to bless. These blessings can still be given, and our
Father never changes and His Son Yahshua Jesus is the “same yesterday, today,
and forever.”
Fathers, place this
blessing upon your children whether they be four or
forty. This would be a wonderful vespers for men’s ministry. The fathers could
bless their children with this blessing, and the elders can bless the children
of fatherless homes.
Signs that the Savior is about to return
1.
Famines and pestilences of Biblical proportion.
New and strange diseases that can become pandemic and kill billions. (Bird
Flu?)
2.
A world population that will in twenty
years reach 14 billion! The world cannot even feed the six billion now! What
then?
3.
Church and state – The supreme
court is now stacked with judges that will have no trouble passing a
Sunday law or any religious laws.
4.
Terrorism – “Men’s hearts failing them for
fear.” Possible nuclear terrorism?
5.
Terrible disasters like Hurricane Katrina,
Hurricane Rita, and a record 27 named storms, and the weather will continue to
get worse and worse.
6.
Global warming that is melting the icecaps –
now absolutely proven, and the future effects will be catastrophic.
7.
The gospel going to all the world
like never before via satellite, the internet, infra-red radio, etc.
8.
Attacks upon our Lord like the upcoming Davinci Code movie.
9.
The false Ten Commandments being in brought
before the people in preparation for religious legislation.
10.
Persecution against the truth such as the
recent removing of 3ABN from Sky Angel.
11.
The devil’s success in removing the mission and
message from many of our leaders and churches. Yes, many are still faithful,
but no doubt the devil’s attack is against the message and mission of our
church.
“When ye see all these
things taking place, lift up your head, for redemption draweth neigh.” –

Yahweh’s Gift of
Mother
This month we will celebrate Mother's Day. So in this newsletter I
wanted to think a 1ittle about mothers, and the blessing they are to us.
Our heavenly Father Yahweh gave us Mothers to show us a glimpse of His
love for us. Who can ever really understand what mother has gone through for
us? Mother carried us around inside her womb for nine months; nursed us through
countless colds, sicknesses, cuts, scrapes and wounded hearts. She dried our
tears. She prayed for us and worried about us, and she sacrificed for us.
Mother cooled our fevers, calmed our fears, took our side when no one else
would. We can never get too proud for mother - she changed our diapers and
wiped our noses! She knew us when!
The theologian Thackery said, "Mother is
the name for God in the hearts and on the lips of little children.” Our
parents, both father and mother are to be the ones who
guide us to the Savior. What a sacred responsibility and wonderful privilege
mothers have. In the book Adventist Home,
on page 238, the Lord's messenger writes this:
"The Christian mother's work,
if done faithfully in God, will be immortalized The devotees of fashion will never see or understand the immortal beauty of that
Christian mother's work, and will
sneer at her old fashioned notions and her plain, unadorned dress; while the Majesty of heaven will write the name of that faithful mother in the book of
immortal fame.
In God's book of heroes, the name of the faithful Christian mothers
will be written. Perhaps all of us can think of times our mothers sacrificed
for us
I remember my mother wearing worn out dresses so that the seven of us
could have new clothes for school. She worked on a frame doing beading every
night after we went to bed to make extra money. Mother's have a great influence
with their children.
In the book Adventist Home, on
page 240, it says, "Next to God,
the mother's power for good is the
strongest known on earth.” There’s no greater power for good the servant of
the Lord said than mother’s love! Right in the heart of the Ten Commandments,
the first one in fact that deals with our relationship to one another on earth,
Yahweh commanded us to honor our father and our mothers. I n fact, if children
won’t obey their parents, they may never obey God! Heaven takes it very serious
when children dishonor, strike, or disobey their parents. In Testimonies,
Volume 5, on page 125, it states: “There
can be no baser ingratitude than that of disobedience to a Christian mother.”
After our relationship with God, the most endearing and important
relationship of all on earth is that of a child to his or her parents. There
are some people who are not even on speaking terms with their mothers. This ought not to be for Christians!
It is not good for us spiritually or physically to hold resentment or
bitter feelings against our mothers or fathers, no matter what they have done.
If they have done evil, they are to be pitied and forgiven, if good
they are to be honored, In both cases they are to be
loved! Proverbs 15:20 says, "A foolish man despises his mother."
Again in Proverbs 23:22,
Today we read more and more about children doing violence to their own
parents, and we see everywhere the disrespect of those whom Yahweh has put
there for children's good! Yahweh, our heavenly Father takes a dim view against
and gives dire warnings to children who strike or harm their parents: In Exodus
21:15 it states: "He who strikes his
father or mother shall surely be put to death.”
The good news is that if we have failed to honor our parents in times
past, like any other sin, there is forgiveness In
In
He saw to it that His mother's needs would be taken care of through His
beloved disciple
Let's permit some great people give their testimony as to the influence
of their mothers.
The closest thing we have, albeit a distant second to God's love is
mother's love. The following true story typifies Mother's love. A pastor
received a call from a new father. He wanted the pastor to be present when he
told his wife that she had given birth to a beautiful baby boy. The baby was
healthy, except the baby had no ears! The baby had the openings and all the
inner ear parts necessary to hear, but no fleshy part outside. The doctors told
the parents that the problem could be corrected when his growth was completed
and a donor was found. School was very hard for this boy. Many times he came
home weeping, "The children called me names and made fun of me.” His
mother would embrace her boy and comfort him. This boy became and excellent
student and went on to be a geologist and science teacher. During his last year
of college, he received a call from his father saying, "Son! We have finally found a donor. The operation will be this summer.” The
operation was a great success. He was
overjoyed. His new ears were beautiful!
He graduated with honors and moved to the mid-west to work. His parents were so
proud of him and were there at his graduation. Years later he received a call
from his father that his godly mother had a heart attack and died. At the
funeral home, his dad called him to the casket, and pushed back his mother's
hair to show his son something. His mother didn’t have any ears! She had given
them, part of herself for her son! Her love and his great need was what
prompted this act of love. That’s mother’s love! And it is wonderful! But God’s
love is greater!
Jesus came and gave more than his ears, He gave all because we were in
desperate need of redemption! He said, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down His life for His friends.” Yahweh
gave us part of himself, His only Son because He so loved the world, that He
gave! God’s love for us is many times greater than even a mother's love for her
little helpless Infant! Turn with me to Isaiah 49:15: "Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have
compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget
thee.” We hear of mothers abandoning their children, but the Lord says I
will never abandon or forget you!
Not too long ago I heard of
Your Father will never resign you to the
garbage can! He so loved you He gave His Son to save you. You’re a child of
Yahweh the King! He gave mothers love to show you a glimpse of His love for
you.
