We often live under the illusion of control, convinced that we can direct our lives by our own will, yet Scripture shows this pursuit always ends in loss, frustration, and even destruction. From Adam and Eve to Job, Esau, and Paul, the Bible reveals that true peace and maturity come not through grasping for control but through surrendering to God’s will. The greatest freedom we can ever know is found not in self-rule, but in faithfully, humbly following the Father’s lead.

Could Unpunctuality Be Sinful?
Is punctuality important to you? What might being late say about your character? Do you have excuses ready when you’re late? Could your lateness actually sin against God, your fellow human beings, and yourself? Is God ever late? Shouldn’t we also avoid being late?
The King’s Seer
The Bible distinguishes between prophets (spokesmen, inspired to proclaim God’s Truth) and seers (those given spiritual vision or perception), though at times, these roles overlapped, as with Samuel, Gad, and Nathan. Both were used by God to provide guidance, correction, and warnings, keeping His people aligned with His Law. While we may not have ordained seers or prophets today, Scripture reminds us to seek spiritual sight and courage, so we can live by God’s Truth even when it is unpopular.

This program gives many examples of the ongoing downfall of the USA and its deteriorating relationship with friends and allies, as well as frightening conduct by its enemies, notwithstanding wishful thinking and statements to the contrary. There is a reason for that, and God’s Church has a duty to proclaim this reason. This includes the fact that the USA will NOT win a major war anymore, as Herbert W. Armstrong so famously proclaimed.
