“Wrong German Reactions to ISIL’s Murders,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summay:

Dangerous developments in Germany; a misunderstanding of ISIS and Islam; and false postulations from the two major Christian churches–how are these events connected? While every decent human being must be appalled by the murderous, barbaric and demonical activities of ISIS and their monstrous deeds, we must not forget the clear biblical teachings for true Christians; nor must we resort to “politically correct” excuses when describing the Koran and Islamists. But these developments and current events are in clear fulfillment of biblical prophecy. We are offering three free booklets: Germany in Prophecy; Europe in Prophecy; and Should You Fight in War?

“Der Schild des Glaubens,” is the title of the German sermon for this coming Sabbath. In English the title is, “The Shield of Faith.”

“Be Ready for the Gospel of Peace,” the sermon by Norbert Link on last Sabbath, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Ephesians 6:15 tells us that we must have our feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace. What exactly does this mean? What about our feet; our preparation or readiness; and the gospel of peace? What is that gospel? Paul warns us not to accept a different gospel, another Jesus, or a different spirit. He also shows us that the belief in the true gospel is absolutely necessary for salvation; and that we ourselves must have peace if we want to stand up for the gospel of peace.

A new Member Letter has been written by Norbert Link. In this letter, which was sent out this week. Mr. Link reminds us that “this is Satan’s world, not God’s, and every attempt to improve Satan’s handiwork will fail.” He continues to point out that it is God’s Kingdom which will resolve mankind’s problems, and that our observance of the Fall Feast Days of God picture part of the great master plan of God’s salvation for humanity.

At the request of brethren in the Philippines, Kenya, Nigeria and other international places, we have sent several DVD’s and CD’s for their use during the Fall Feast Season.

“Yellowstone’s Supervolcano—How Real Is the Threat?,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

A recent visit to the Yellowstone National Park brought into focus the enormous size of the Supervolcano and the doomsday predictions of its impending eruption, which would kill instantly close to 100,000 people and which would leave two-thirds of the country completely uninhabitable. But is such an eruption likely? Most scientists deny this, but others are not too sure. In the end, no scientist knows or can predict anything with reasonable accuracy. What does the Bible tell us? This program includes extensive footage of the beautiful and at the same time scary environment of Yellowstone. Our booklet, “The Great Tribulation and the Day of the Lord” is offered free of charge.

Dave Harris’ video-recorded sermon from last Sabbath, titled, “Out of Weakness,” has been posted on the Internet. Here is a summary:

When we hear about the grizzly beheading of people; when planes are shot out of the sky; when riots erupt in our cities; when unspeakably degrading activities are paraded across our television screens…WHAT should we think or do? More to the point—what are we thinking and what are we doing?

“Nationwide Droughts—Why?” is the title of a new StandingWatchprogram presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Nationwide droughts, including in Texas and California, are plaguing this country, and it may get much worse. Scientists are already speaking of megadroughts. In this program, we are sharing with you personal impressions and extensive footage from a drought-stricken area in northern California, and we are showing you from the Bible reasons for the persistent droughts.

“Will Russia Invade Eastern Ukraine?,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

When Russia invaded Crimea, many commentators were in shock and demanded a reversal. Recently, German governmental officials stated that no reversal is in sight, and that the international community has lost interest in demanding Russian departure from Crimea. In addition, concerns are rising that Russia’s next step will be a military invasion of eastern Ukraine, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel made some controversial statements which alarmed those Ukrainians who do not want to be ruled by Russia. For a biblical perspective on the matter, we are offering our free booklet, “Biblical Prophecy… From Now Until Forever.”

Pastor Brian Gale has recorded two new Global Trailers (numbers 21 and 22).

“Mit Wahrheit Umgürtet,” is the title of this week’s German sermon. The title in English is “Girded With the Truth.” 

“Man’s Deceitful Heart,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Norbert Link, is now posted, and here is a summary:

God commands us to love Him with all our heart. How can we do this? The Bible does not teach that the natural man has a good and willing heart. At the same time, we do not read that God has created him with an evil and deceitful heart. How then did it become that way? And how is it possible to get ourselves a new heart?

The 2014 Fall Holy Days will be observed on the following dates: Feast of Trumpets–September 25; Day of Atonement–October 4; Feast of Tabernacles–October 9-15; Last Great Day–October 16.

“How to Stop ISIS!,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

The murderous and abominable activities of the terrorist group, ISIS, are deeply troublesome. What are the solutions dealing with this depraved, ungodly and demonically inspired group of people? Does the Bible give us answers? Indeed it does, but are we willing to listen? We offer our free booklet, “Should You Fight in War?”

“Neu! Der WAHRE Jesus Christus!,” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. In English, the title is, “The TRUE Jesus Christ!”

“Neu!’Macht Euch ein Neues Herz!’,” is the title of this week’s German sermon. In English, the title is, “Get Yourselves a New Heart!”

Norbert Link recorded this week the sermon for the Feast of Tabernacles, titled, “God’s Plan Revealed through His Holy Days.” In the sermon, it is explained that the weekly and annual Festivals and Holy Days describe God’s plan for mankind, but that very few understand. Mr. Link is reviewing the historical and prophetic significance of each Holy Day and Festival season and points out the many human errors which have replaced these days or modified their meaning.  He encourages all of us to be very vigilant not to fall for any of these misconceptions, as there is still going to occur a falling away from the truth just prior to Christ’s return.

In an introductory message during last week’s Sabbath services, titled, “No Way! There Will Be No Seven-Year Treaty!,” Norbert Link addressed the importance of correctly understanding Daniel 9:27. Here is a summary:

Some teach that a seven-year treaty will be adopted between a modern king of the North or the beast and a modern king of the South, consisting of Arab nations, just prior to the return of Christ, and that that treaty will be broken after 3 ½ years. Others teach that that treaty is going to be made between the king of the North and the Jews. They base this teaching on Daniel 9:27. However, this passage does NOT teach such a treaty, but something altogether different. It is VERY important that you understand the truth, because a wrong teaching might find you completely unprepared for the return of Jesus Christ.

Michael Link’s video-recorded sermon, “Learn to Grow,” has been posted on the Web.

“A New Order for the Middle East?,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

The Bible prophesies that when the US falls, Europe under German leadership will rise. This programs gives you up-to-date information on America’s declining influence in the Middle East and around the world, and Germany’s ambitious plans for a new order for that part of the world, citing security concerns for Europe. We are also addressing the potential of the return of the monarchy in Germany. We are offering you three of our free booklets related to this program, dealing with biblical prophecy.

Israel stands condemned. Anti-Semitism and hatred for Jews can be again observed worldwide. This program gives you some truly shocking examples and explains from history why there is continuing war and strife in the Middle East, and what constitutes the only solution for peace in that region.

“Wie Stark Ist Ihr Glaube?,” is the title of this week’s German sermon. In English, the title is “How Strong Is Your Faith?”

“Does Sin Lead to Success?,” the sermon given last Sabbath by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Does sin pay? Are sinners happy people? Are they more successful and blessed than others? Can they look with confidence at a peaceful future? The Bible shows us that none of this is true. Sin leads to disaster. It sets in motion an automatic chain of events. There is a cause for every effect. There is a fundamental difference between the righteous and the wicked. We will reap what we sow. Our sin will find us out.

Norbert and Johanna Link are planning to visit both the Oregon and Colorado church congregations. The dates are for the Sabbath of July 26 with the church in Oregon and the Sabbath of August 2 with the church in Colorado.

“America’s Disastrous Domestic and Foreign Policies,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

The domestic and foreign policy of the USA is a total and complete disaster. In this program, we quote many liberal and conservative national and international voices, showing the “declining American influence and commitment in the Middle East,” the “incompetence” of the President; and his lack of “vision or power,” while putting “politics and ideology ahead of preserving hard-won gains.” They state that while America is “alienating its friends,” “the ruins of American foreign policy” are observable everywhere. Why is America in such an unprecedented hopeless state?

A new member letter is being written by Eric Rank and will be sent out early next week.

“Segnen und Gesegnet Werden, is the title of this week’s new German sermon. The title in English: “To Bless and to Be Blessed.”
