Far from being a “Jewish” festival relegated to practices found in the Old Testament, the Feast of Tabernacles is the memorial of what God has done and what He will do to bring salvation to mankind in His Kingdom.

We know that God does not require our money, nor anything of this earth that we possess. What God commands of us is obedience from those He has drawn. In this message, we will review a few scriptures that help us to understand that our gifts to God must come from the heart, and from a spirit of generosity and appreciation for all He has done, and continues to do for us.

There are noticeable health benefits for thankful people. What does the Bible say about the necessity for a Christian to be thankful? When and for what are we to be thankful, for whom, and towards whom? And why is thankfulness so rare today and seldom to be observed?

What is more important than the physical necessities and material things that we may take for granted in this world today? Knowing that all these things are merely temporary, what is it that we must do first in order for us to enjoy and also be grateful for what to do have now?

The Day of Atonement pictures the world’s atonement with God and Satan’s imprisonment. Although this sermon speaks on the past, presence and future of Satan, who wants to prevent man’s reconciliation with God, it is also emphasized that Jesus Christ is central to the meaning of this annual Holy Day.

Is the threat of a terrorist attack on American soil greater now than “it’s ever been”? What does the Bible say about the possibility that the events on September 11, 2001, will be repeated? ? And is President Biden’s new “unconstitutional” mandate for vaccinations, combined with mean threats for the unvaccinated, a desperate attempt “to distract from his shameful, incompetent Afghanistan exit” and “morally disgraceful decision”? Can today’s development be paralleled with “scapegoating” “religious minorities in Medieval Europe” and after “the fall of Rome”?

Accountability is about taking ownership of one’s life, the good and the bad. When we take accountability as Christians, we take on even more responsibility. How can we do this more effectively?

Those whom God calls are tested as to whether or not they will actually obey God in all things. Observing the Sabbath Day is often the first real challenge, but all of the “feasts of the LORD” are to be observed, and that is true for the Feast of Trumpets as well.

Setbacks, disappointments, loss, failures – all of these things can be the cause of discouragement, which left unchecked, will disintegrate hope. What does it take to be resilient enough to bounce back when we face struggles? What are the promises from God that we can count on?

Startling events for which few are prepared, are happening at an ever increasing pace, and more is in store! It will take the return of Jesus Christ for peace to be established on the earth.

Do we really understand that all of today’s human political leaders and nations are being held captive by Satan? From the terrible events in Afghanistan to worldwide coronavirus restrictions, we in God’s Church should be able to see a common denominator. At this point, the Western world is plagued with weak and incompetent leadership. But this will change soon when Satan will bring a man to power whom the Bible calls the beast, and who will establish a worldwide totalitarian dictatorship. Satan is preparing mankind for this event, but most are too blind and don’t see what is happening. At the same time, Satan is attacking God’s people by trying to persuade them that they do not have to keep His Holy Days and personally attend God’s Feast sites.

This sermon shows the importance of not letting down in prayer during the busy summer months and it points out how to have an effective prayer.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are a contemporary focus for our governments, educational institutions and work environments. What does the Bible say about the right way to apply these principles?

Immutability describes a state of being that does not change. Things that are immutable remain in the same condition from their beginning to their end. While few things in life are truly immutable, the promise of God is different. What is the immutable promise of God that we can rely on, unconditionally?

Early Christians were admonished to “contend earnestly for the faith” because true Christianity was under assault. That warning rings just as true today! Are you among those who are striving to keep the faith—just as the Bible reveals?

There are many different birds mentioned in the Bible and certain birds are particularly referred to for specific and symbolic purposes. What can we learn from their significance in the way the Bible uses them?

Due to Iran’s and Hezbollah’s attack on Israel and the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, the situation in these areas is getting more and more precarious and devastating. The USA is largely blamed for the developments. We also observe fear-mongering in many countries regarding Covid-19, including in the USA, with medical recommendations and governmental measures and mandates continuously changing. Opposition, demonstrations and resistance in the USA and Western nations are growing. How will governments in those countries respond?
