Psalms 24:1 says, The earth is the LORD'S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Psalms 105:2,3 goes on to say, Serve the LORD with gladness: come before His presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD He is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture. A shepherd cares for his sheep and will not let them become the prey of a predator. God is safeguarding us. Rest in His care.

Daniel 7:7-8 - After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Daniel 7:3-6 - And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it. And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
Revelation 13:1-2 - And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Please go to JudgmentDayDocumentary.com to learn about why the Seventh-Day Adventist Church was formed and understand its history.
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Acts 17:11.
It is good to study the Bible when we can. 2 Timothy 2:14-15 KJV - "Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
I also did a hydrotherapy procedure on both of her lower legs, and also got her started taking Celtic salt under her tongue anytime she drinks water. I am hoping that these efforts will help reduce the swelling in her legs and get her back up and walking. Her husband Bob said that he will try and follow through with all the procedures and keep her hydrated and drinking the juice.
Please pray for my friend Margie. She has a hospice care nurse visit once weekly. Her ankles and feet are swollen three times their normal size. I bought her and her hubby some fresh and frozen fruit and vegetables, and got her started on a purifying juice drink that will address her liver and kidney issues.
One of the life-changing verses for me is 1 Corinthians 10:5. There have been many times that I've prayed for God to take my thoughts captive. He answers that prayer wonderfully!
A few minutes ago, I reviewed Psalm 23, Psalm 117, and parts of Psalm 27 and Proverbs 31, and a variety of verses from Romans. Please share with us what you have reviewed or learned anew today. 🙂
🌻 Happy Sabbath friends! Hope you have a blessed one. 🙏🌷
Sobering verses today: 1 Peter 5:5-8 KJV - "Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour."
John, I am sorry for the repeated posts. I am not sure how those happened. If you would give me Admin capability, I would delete them when they occur. Also, I would have no reason to damage your group. I am an honest SDA Christian.
John, Isaiah 51-53 are important end time chapters. Thank you for the reminder. By the way, I once knew a woman from Lansing, Michigan. Her name was Diane Lapinski. We went through Army Basic Training and AIT together. We wrote lots of letters after we went separate ways. I loved her, and finally had an opportunity once to witness to her about the 2nd coming of the Lord. This was after my conversion to Christianity and Seventh-day Adventism. But later, she somehow got into the flat Earth ideas. She blocked me on Facebook when I could not support her on those claims. Those crazy ideas ended our friendship. Anyway, knowing that Lansing may be a large city, is it possible that you might you know her?
I had a lovely Sabbath. I attended a health seminar put on by the Stateline Church in Milton-Freewater, Oregon. Dr. Walt Cross, a naturopathic doctor, spoke on the uses of natural remedies to treat health problems. It was very interesting and confirms my trust in God as the Great Healer. He gave us everything in nature that we need to stay well.
Sabbath was a blessing for me. God helped me see and share a message from Isaiah 51, a chapter which has special importance for His end-time people. I hope He blessed you, too.
I hope everyone is having a good day! It is the Preparation Day for the Sabbath again. It is a busy one for me (and Sunday and Monday) because I still need to prepare food and a salad (chili for my hubby and son), start some kind of seed plan for our garden (cannot wait on that as the clock is ticking), write if and when I get the chance, and prepare plant care directions for my husband while I am gone for a week long trip (which I will also have to pack for). Tomorrow (the Sabbath) we are going to a nearby health seminar for the day. I so much prefer being busy than having nothing to do and no goal in sight! :^)
Preparation Day has arrived again. Got to get busy. Have a happy Sabbath, friends. 🖐😊🙏
How is everyone doing today?
🌺 Have a restful and happy Sabbath folks. 🤗
I love this chapter. Lamentations 3:22-26 KJV - It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is Thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in Him. The LORD is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seeketh Him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.
Some favorite review verses this morning: Romans 8:26-28 KJV - Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And He that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because He maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose.
Memory verses from my review today: Isaiah 41:10, 13-14 KJV - Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
Some thoughtful verses to contemplate as we enter into the Sabbath: 1 Peter 2:19-21 KJV - For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? But if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps.
I just finished listening to this video about the compelling case for Ellen White as a true prophet of God on YouTube. This perfectly sums up my feelings about her: https://youtu.be/-xVAyk5JjrE?si=v7C71agkm0qy7tNL
🌺 Happy Sabbath my friends! 🙏❤
I know a little bit about the situation, but not all. The Developer was trying to clear out much unsolicited advertising, individuals who were involved in cheating and who were teaching others how to do it on their groups, and so forth. I had contacted him many times, but I do not think I was the only one who was addressing these problems.
Marilyn, I noticed messages to join a group disappeared, and now another similar message appears. Do you know anything about these messages and/or groups?
🌺 Thank you, Admin. Happy Sabbath! 🙏😊
Jesus, looking down to the last generation, saw the world involved in a deception similar to that which caused the destruction of Jerusalem. The great sin of the Jews was their rejection of Christ; the great sin of the Christian world would be their rejection of the law of God, the foundation of His government in heaven and earth. - GC1 22:1-3
I may have eaten too much cabbage that my husband cooked. I do not think it agreed with me. But once it was out of my stomach, I was better immediately. Definitely too much of a good thing. 😅
I just threw up about 5 times, but am fine now. Drinking hot chocolate.
John, I feel that I am being harassed by an evil spirit. You can see the evidence on groups called 28 Fundamental Briefs and on Missionaries. Please keep me in your prayers and let others know as well. I have posted this info which may have the enemy and his cronies scrambling: Go to SetfreeinChrist.org to receive guidance on how to empower your mind against spiritual warfare.
Amen. Praise the Lord for giving us strength here and for the hope of eternal victory.
Ephesians 6:14-18 KJV - "Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;"
Ephesians 6:10-13 KJV - "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand."
I appreciate that beautiful quote, Marilyn, and that the next paragraph tells us how to have that experience.
"But such a character is not the result of accident; it is not due to special favors or endowments of Providence. A noble character is the result of self-discipline, of the subjection of the lower to the higher nature--the surrender of self for the service of love to God and man. " (Education, page 57, para. 4)
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13
The greatest want of the world is the want of men--men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. - Education 57:1-2
John, please keep my group, FINAL EVENTS SDA, in your prayers. The enemy has for years battered our group because of our commitment to uphold the truth about the Sabbath, and other major beliefs that are being downplayed in Christian denominations.
Yes, Marilyn. Anything, anytime. If we are "one" with Him, it will be as natural as breathing. And He wants it to be that way from what I read in John 17.
I have learned a lot of scriptures and see this same theme time and time again: Psalm 55:1-3 - "Give ear to my prayer, O God; and hide not Thyself from my supplication. Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise; Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me." It encourages me that I can bring anything before the Lord at any time.
This year has just flown by! And to think we will be entering a new year this week already. It promises to be a severe test for many of us. Heaven help us. 😯🙏
🎆 Merry Christmas everyone! May the love, of our Father in heaven and His son Jesus Christ, dwell in your hearts and minds both now and forevermore, amen. 🙏❤
@Everyone: I hope your Preparation Day is productive as you prepare for the true Sabbath day of rest. Do not let anything distract you from getting ready to be in the presence of the Lord for the sacred hours of the Seventh day Sabbath. The devil has already tried over the last several days to cause me grief and stress, and steal my blessing. However, a special blessing is in store for me tonight. I get to participate in a sing-along Handels Messiah! How I miss those days when I sang the long score every Christmas for years with our local Symphony Choir and Orchestra.
Some of my review verses this morning: Romans 10:12-14 KJV - "For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon Him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?"
❤ Brethren, let us make good use of the few hours we have before us to prepare for the blessed Sabbath day of the Lord, the day of rest that God made for man. Genesis 2:2-3 KJV - "And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made." Happy Sabbath! 🙏🙂🌺
Oh, how I need His strength!
Part of my review this morning: Isaiah 40:28-30 KJV - "Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? There is no searching of His understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall."
Yes, that is a wonderful verse. Just to think that Jesus is now ministering on our behalf in the true Sanctuary not made by the hands of man.
One of my verses reviewed today is Hebrew 9:24. I'm so thankful that Jesus is my High Priest!
Happy Sabbath! Yes, Marilyn we have much for which to thank our wonderful heavenly Father!
🌺 Happy Sabbath, everyone! 🙏❤
I am especially thankful this Thanksgiving for our good health, a loving church family, the blessings we take for granted such as plenty to eat, my sweet cat Pepper (14 now!), and God the Father Who loves us so much that He gave us Jesus to die for our sins so that we will not have to. And I love and appreciate all of the beautiful creation that God gave us to enjoy. Be blessed everyone! God loves you.
Verses from my review that put trials in perspective: Psalm 119:71, 75-76 KJV - "It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn Thy statutes. I know, O LORD, that Thy judgments are right, and that Thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. Let, I pray Thee, Thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Thy word unto Thy servant."
Jesus gave us an example regarding politics: He stayed out of it.
Jesus had all authority in heaven and on earth. But as a man, He stayed out of it.
He saw the darkest of the corruption. But He stayed out of it.
If His kingdom is our kingdom, let's stay out of this world's politics.
Let's follow His example.
Here is a short film about manna: https://youtube.com/shorts/94mx3Rdjvgk?si=iN7XtpRTqZ1Xakzn
Memorizing the word of God is a tremendous blessing! Here are some review verses from this morning which include a few of my thoughts: Proverbs 28:2, 4-5 KJV - "For the transgression of a land [the US] many are the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding and knowledge [Trump] the state thereof shall be prolonged [God is holding back the winds of strife until His Saints are sealed]. They that forsake the law praise the wicked: but such as keep the law contend with them. Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things."
Hi everyone! How are you doing with your memorizing? Are you continuing to instill the word of God in your minds? 😲🙏
🌺 God bless you all. Happy Sabbath everyone! 🙏😄🍂🍃
Some of my favorite verses: Proverbs 30:24-28 KJV - "There be four things which are little upon the earth, but they are exceeding wise: The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer; The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks; The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings’ palaces."
Our worship time today was so special. Besides the subject matter in the SS lesson and sermon, the man that tells the children's story had some friends bring their pet opossum for his Creature Feature. It was so fun to see that beautiful little animal! We always eagerly anticipate what interesting topic he will share. He has brought a small raccoon, a baby owl, and a pine (gopher) snake recently. What a blessing his presentations have been. And he knows all the Latin names!
Thank you, Marilyn, for the verses. They are pertinent to recent issues in the news.
Also: Colossians 3:8-13 KJV - "But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth. Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of Him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye."
I had the delight of receiving counsel again through a few of my favorite memory verses this morning: Psalm 118:4-8 KJV - "Let them now that fear the LORD say, that His mercy endureth forever. I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place. The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."

I like Pr Ron Kelly any time, but this YouTube video by him was exceptional! https://youtu.be/cAa9_XUuymU?si=UCvR0zG_aMn_C7C5
Why do beavers rest EVERY Sabbath? video on YouTube. A strange silence is observed over the Sabbath (Saturday). A hush falls over all their activities at sundown every Friday evening without fail. And this is regarding every beaver around the world, regardless of the season. Sunday mornings, they begin their work again. https://youtu.be/uZ-Sz7fLyf0?si=NeLvyc8eRwzBo8W9
Sabbath preparation varies. Sometimes someone else in the house needs guidance to see what needs to be done. As I teach Sabbath School once a month, and have other responsibilities at church, there are various preparations for my parts there. Always, it seems, more could be done, if there were more time. So I have to tell myself, "We've done what we could. It's enough." Most important is to prepare my heart to seek Him more fully.
I have several things to do on this Preparation Day: dishes and cooking, some yard work, and last minute bits and pieces. What kind of things do you have to do to prepare for the Sabbath of the Lord?
🌺 Happy Sabbath everyone! 🙏❤
Jesus gave up His Heavenly glory when He offered up Himself as a sacrifice for your ransom. So our response to Him should be like what the song called, Give of Your Best to the Master, speaks of: "Give of your best to the Master, give of the strength of your youth; throw your souls fresh, glowing ardor, into the battle for truth. Jesus has set the example, dauntless was He, young and brave; give Him your loyal devotion, give Him the best that you have."
Isaiah 59:17, 18 KJV - "For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon His head; and He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay, fury to His adversaries, recompence to His enemies; to the islands He will repay recompence."
I love the comforting message of these verses: Psalm 27:9-14 KJV say, "Hide not Thy face far from me; put not Thy servant away in anger: Thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation. When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Teach me Thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD."
🌺 Happy Sabbath everyone! 🙏❤🙏
Fountainview Academy choir and orchestra (from Canada) will be live at the Village SDA Church in College Place, Washington tonight. The program starts at 7 pm and may be LIVE on Blue Mountain TV or the HOPE Channel. You may also be able to see it on Youtube and Facebook. They have excellent music program! Then tomorrow, John Bradshaw will be speaking during the Gospel Outreach program (same church). Hope you can make it!
Ephesians 4:14-15 KJV - "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into Him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"
❤ Happy Sabbath everyone! 😄
Well, I finally have a new phone and will be setting it up like I like over the next few days. The last several weeks have been a trying time for me: broken BM app on my phone (and on the computer site somewhat), broken phone, painful ugly stye under my left eye (had to go to my eye doctor for and Rx, and to an urgent care doctor for additional help). To top it off, the ABO may be causing my uncomfortable abodominal problems. There is more, but no need to bore you with any more of my woes. Hopefully your life is running much smoother than mine! But I am grateful for the presence of the Lord through it all. He is truly the best companion one can have!
They strengthen me for the battle. 1 Peter 4:16, 19 KJV - "Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf. Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to Him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator."
Yes, Marilyn. Those are precious verses. But I've never heard someone connect James 1:2-4 with fighting depression. (I'd heard of them being used to encourage patience.) How do you see them as helpful?
The word of God is very healing, and speaks to each one of us in a personal way. That is what I saw since I have a tendency to become depressed. It started when I was a child. And right now I have a very sore eye because of a clogged oil gland. I am reminded by these verses to accept suffering to learn patience. There are other verses I could have pointed to; this was just the passage I needed at the moment.
Yes, Marilyn. Those are precious verses. But I've never heard someone connect James 1:2-4 with fighting depression. (I'd heard of them being used to encourage patience.) How do you see them as helpful?
The devil never lets up. He does try to "wear out" the saints with continuous oppression. So, when I am tempted to become depressed, here are some good verses to remember. James 1:2-4 KJV say, "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."
My BM phone app is back to normal. I waited patiently as Mr Golson worked, and made some changes of my own (to my page), and I am back up and running. Praise God! 😄
Amen! I really appreciate the founder, Brett Golson. He has been sooo patient with me, listening to all my complaints, and diligently working with his team to find a solution.
I'm glad to hear you found a solution, Marilyn. May God help us all to us well the tools He has put in our hands.
Thank you for your prayers. My Android phone Bible Memory app was very badly broken! The developer and I have exchanged several emails back and forth between us. Things are pretty much back to normal. He has worked very diligently to restore my site, and I am very grateful.
You are right, John. I may have depended too much on the convenience of this app, and this may be the way God has chosen for me to redirect my methods of memorization. It is still broken and does not even sync with the online website. But I have given this problem over to God. I believe He knows best.
How is the review going now, Marilyn? I'm glad to read of your determination to keep up with review. It certainly is important! And I appreciate this app. It is not my only review method, but it does help. Because I know that different people learn and retain well with different methods, and because I know that technology sometimes lets us down, I would encourage everyone to try different systems and have backup methods. Whatever works to get God's Word implanted in our hearts and keep it there, God will bless us through it.
Irregardless of what the devil does to try to intimidate me (and others), I am established in the faith and settled in my beliefs, just as it says in 1 Peter 5:8-10 KJV - "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world. But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you."
I cannot work on my verses on my own phone. Something is broken! So pray for me. I have had a hard time the last two days trying to figure out how to keep up with my review verses on here.
Good morning everyone! I think the Developer is making positive changes on the leadership board of our Bible Memory app because many people are falling behind reviewing their memory verses. I would like to encourage each of you to try to catch up, and stay up. Do not lose your interest in this app as it may be the only encouragement to someone who needs something positive to focus on as we enter into darker days of evil just ahead. You could be the very light that inspires them to hang on to Jesus. Stay inspired! 🙏😀
Yes, ears to hear and eyes to see. What a blessed thing it would be if we all understood the Truth, as it is in Jesus! Someday in heaven... 😌🙏❤
Yes, Marilyn. It's plain enough. I wish all had "ears to hear" as Jesus said.
