All throughout the world our people suffer inequality, oppression, and injustice. Ecclesiastes 4:1 “So I returned, and considered all the oppressions that are done under the sun: and behold the tears of such as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power; but they had no comforter.” Often those in power do not rectify the situation, also those tha...

Every new moon (month) we are commanded to blow the trumpet. Psalms 81:3 “Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.” According to the Bible the second coming of Christ approaches with every passing day. Nobody wants on that day to get destroyed, to avoid that we must renew ourselves just like the new year. Therefore every new moon we reflect on what it sy...

We are in the last days of the year; it is time to celebrate the month of Abib on April 11 th at sundown. Those of us that are wise know that the beginning of the year is in the season of spring. Also that a new month begins on the lunar phase called the new moon. If you have never heard of this before, catch up on those lessons by going to our Radio Station , where you could hear also some inspir...

Did you know that there are days similar to the Sabbath? Those days are called holy convocations (gathering) just like the Sabbath. Leviticus 23:2 “Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.” A unknown fact is that the Sabbath is a feast of rest decreed by God, thus it is the fo...

In this class we took some time to explain the meaning of the word Sabbath. After listening, if you reflect on the past few classes titled “Sabbath Your Minds” it will be easy to admit that what said in this class is true. Weren’t the words you heard in the past “Sabbath Your Minds” comforting? Those lessons gives you insight of what goes on among us during the Sabbath day. The Sabbath is the foun...

This saying has been used often to avoid correction and teachings from the scriptures. Most think they could dismiss anything said to them within the scriptures as the interpretation of that person, to keep themselves separated either by religions or organizations. The real question is whether they believe the scriptures rather than whether the interpretation belongs to that person. Since we are t...

This generation wants an audience and a following in many platforms, but if you’re like me, you just want to be heard by God. Then the question of whether my prayer is acceptable or am I praying properly is a concern. There are many misconceptions and ignorance pertaining to prayer, to the point that it is a hindrance. Today’s lesson uncovers the simple fact, that some are disconnected and blocked...

Shalam (Peace) brothers and sisters: Naturally no one will say yes to this question, but this is exactly what is happening! Have you considered what you are really celebrating? Before you try to make an excuse and say, that it is not your intention or that it means something different now. We want to warn you that God had dealt with our forefathers who tried to justify themselves as well. Isaiah 5...

The pandemic has revealed this year many hypocrisies; whether it was within the government, society, or among our people. Job 17:8 “Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.” While the past few lessons focused on maintaining spiritual, mental, and emotional well-being; none of this is possible without having innocency before God. Faith is...

An interesting fact is that in Old English the word worry meant to be killed from a bite of a dog or wolf in strangulation. Also that this word does not exist in the entire Bible. Our modern definition used to describe when a person is troubled in their thoughts, suffering anxiety, distressed, and thinking negatively about their problems are not without solutions. To worry is a common issue among...

During times of uncertainty and troubles the common reaction is to panic. Imagine if you had a place you could always turn to in those trying times. Instead of being lost and not seeing the positive that some situations present. 1 st Corinthians 9:26 “I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:”

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. This is not being said because of the Donald Trump supporters, it is instead the false notion of a democracy. It is as if the voters of this current election have amnesia, since the votes of last presidential race did not decide who became president. The votes of the people did not matter; Hilary Clinton had the popular...

Every ten years our people participate in the census and do not realize that it is wicked. Our lack of knowledge is used against us by those in power to cause us to commit sin against God. Job 9:24 “ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked : he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?” The heathens for many generations have used this tactic to keep us separate...

Our people are living in difficult times, suffering affliction in various ways. Often we could talk about the issues we are suffering but we are blinded by what the solutions might be. This upcoming Sabbath will be the day of Atonement (9/25/2020 at sundown), which is the fast that God commanded. On this day we seek to reconcile with the Heavenly Father. The action we will take will cause us to ge...

When you have famous people that are rich speaking now publicly of the hidden fact that we are indeed the children of Israel. Then it must mean that the prophecies of the Heavenly Father are marvelous. But we must remember what Christ said that often the rich will give up the kingdom to keep their status. Matthew 19:23 “Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man sha...

It is a great thing to know your history because in the past it was prophecies. Now we could appreciate the fact that it was fulfilled. In ancient Babylon our forefathers learned their lesson quick and decided to turn back to the heavenly Father. By trusting in the prophecies they received the expected results; freedom from the Babylonian captivity. Could it be possible that if we follow their foo...

scribe to the scientists: Jeremiah 17:5 “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” The word theory doesn’t exist in the Bible, however people put more faith in theories than the word of God. The word theory was used in ancient times by the Greeks as a philosophical term and it meant to be speculative in understa...

Shalam (Peace) brothers and sisters: Matthew 16:18 “… upon this rock I will build my church ; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Notice that Christ did not say he will build churches, as in many but as of one. This caused me to ask, then what is the Church? Remember a while back when hurricane Harvey hit Houston (Texas) and Joel Osteen’s church wouldn’t provide shelter to those f...

Shalam (Peace) brothers and sisters: Ecclesiastes 1:4 “One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever.” As the generations come and go, one thing remains the same, our suffering. It is expected for a person from another nation to be uninformed in regards to the conditions of our people. Why should they be concerned when it doesn’t affect them? Our concer...

Shalam (Peace) brothers and sisters, We are living in a time where picking up your Bible to read about the prophecies is important. Revelations 1:3 “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.” Imagine picking it up for the first time and not realizing that this book belongs to the 12 Tribes of...

There are times when a person will speak against you. Usually the timing is when you are in the most vulnerable situations, their true feelings will come out. Then you realize you have an enemy although you did unto them no wrong. In David’s case he fled from Absalom his son, to save his life. At that moment came out a man that hid hatred and persecuted him with words. 2 nd Samuels 16:11 “And Davi...

Sickness is a common occurrence, physically and mentally. In this psalm David prays for healing, acknowledging that it could be rebuke (correction) for angering the Heavenly Father. It is not common belief that sickness could be correction from the most High or that healing comes from him. Apocrypha Ecclesiasticus 38:9 “My son, in thy sickness be not negligent: but pray unto the Lord, and he will...

The prior chapter was an evening prayer, while this is the morning prayer. Romans 8:26 “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.” Some deny themselves the benefits of prayer because they do not know how to. A way that we are helped by the Spirit in...

The name Joel means YHWH is God. This book depicts vividly the power of the most High God. Joel 1:15 “Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.” The message is clear the Heavenly Father through any means could bring destruction. One example mentioned are insects which could bring devastating pestilence to crops. Sometimes we might s...

One word frequently found in the book of Psalms is prayer. There are some people that never pray for various reasons. But one that I hear often is that they do not know what to say. Although it is not stated in the title of this Psalm, we could quickly describe it as an evening prayer. Sent up in the night before going to bed, instructing us to reflect upon our ways and the good we received from t...
