We are celebrating the Feast of Tabernacles 2006. We are experiencing a foretaste of how the world will be like in a few years from now–a world of peace and truth and love. If we make it into God’s kingdom, we will be teaching God’s Way of Life to the world. We will be educating misguided people about how to live. Do we practice today what we are to preach to others tomorrow?
Sermons
We Are Here!
We are here in the appointed feast days of God–holy convocations. We need to consider God’s instructions for this time, and we need to understand more deeply what God reveals about this very special part of His plan of salvation.
Train Up A Child
Several Aspects of Peace
This sermon discusses several different areas about peace. Periods of peace in the history of Israel; the world not knowing the way to peace; peace in the World Tomorrow; the personal peace that we can have at this time and the important concept of peace between brethren now.
What It Will Be Like to Be God
How will it be like for us, when we are born-again members of the Family of God? When we are Spirit beings, unable to die or to sin, and no longer subject to physical limitations? What exactly does our future hold? Why is our potential worth striving and fighting for?
Introduction to the Feast of Tabernacles
Let Us Be Glad
By living according to God’s way, we can avoid so many of the problems experienced by those who ignore it. Our life can be more fulfilling and enjoyable because of our faith – not grinding out this life before we enjoy eternity. Those of us who have been called to understand God’s master plan as revealed through His holy days are of all people most blessed, and the Feast of Tabernacles is a wonderful time to enjoy both now and what the reality holds for us in the future.
The Purpose of Fasting
We are commanded to “afflict our souls” on the Day of
Atonement. Does this really mean that we must fast for 24 hours? And if so, do
we fast by just abstaining from solid food during that time, or do we also have
to abstain from liquids? What are some of the reasons and purposes for
fasting? On the other hand, what are some of the motives which we should not
have when we fast? Does fasting have rewards? Can we fast in vain? And what is
the connection between reconciliation or at-one-ment and fasting?
The Angel Lucifer
When Lucifer rebelled against the Almighty God he had a specific, all consuming purpose in mind for what he did. That purpose is still his major objective today. He continues to work toward that all consuming objective.
A Day of Change
We speak of how things change–usually it is over time. But the Feast of Trumpets focuses on a period when sudden, catastrophic occurrences will be happening with mind-numbing speed! The good news of this Day is that Jesus Christ will return to this earth to change the government of this world and to establish peace. Reviewing the examples and meaning of the Feast of Trumpets will help us prepare for what lies ahead.
