It should go without saying that Christ is central to Christianity. Most Christians know that He is the means by which God brings human beings back into fellowship with Himself. They may also be aware that Christ is our substitute and surety, our righteousness, and our pattern and example for living. What they may not know is that, as the sinless "second Adam," Christ has become the new head of the human race and that, in leaving this world, He sent His Spirit to complete the adoption process for all who receive Him (Gal. 4:6, 7). And what they also may not know is that Christ is also our Wonderful Judge, which is encouraging news headed toward final judgment.Allan Freed describes Christ's roles in human redemption, how the biblical sanctuary foreshadowed the pathway of reconciliation to God, and what the believer must do to cooperate with Jesus as He finishes His heavenly sanctuary ministry. He warns about a perilous path promoted by a three-part religious union that has declared Protestantism dead, and he offers insight to get on and stay on the pathway that will take us home to God.

G. Earl Knight spent several years in researching the subject of the Holy Spirit.

May the readers of this book lift up Jesus as the only answer to their quest in life and may each one receive the Power of the Holy Spirit.

What kind of character defines the Translation Generation who will be privileged-by the Spirit and power of Elijah-to proclaim a finished work, the "sealing truth" for this hour? Where are to be found the inspired messengers who are qualified to bring the closing truth, which is to breathe new hope, life, and power into a beleaguered, weary, but still patiently waiting community of faith? And where shall we look for the living testimony promised for this last generation and for the one who is "filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb … to make ready a people prepared for the Lord" (Luke 1: 17, 76-79)?Here the author sets forth-gleaned through a lifetime of observation, study, and practical experience-some of the foundational principles that provide the key to the long-expected restoration that precedes the promised outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon a humble and repentant people. We discover that, "in the time of the end, every divine institution is to be restored" (Prophets and Kings, 678) and that "the great reformatory movement must begin in presenting to fathers and mothers and children the principles of the law of God" (Testimonies for the Church Vol. 6, 119).Character by Design aims to reveal the starting place-the Christian Home-beginning with committed parents and the babies in their arms. "Time is too short to accomplish that which might have been accomplished in past generations … but because time is short, we should be in earnest … to give the young an education which will be consistent with our faith" (Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students, 179).

We live in a broken world with broken people. Often it is easy to ignore the needs of the people around us. But what would God want us to do? In His ministry here on earth, Jesus reached out to the most hurt, most abused, and most reviled members of His community. He healed not only their bodies but their spirits. Should we do any less?The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a unique opportunity to serve the hurting in their community through a Home-Based Care ministry. With our mission to love, serve, and teach, and with the numerous church resources already available, we can do what many others cannot-be the safe haven of health and healing that God intends His church to be.While this book focuses on ministry to individuals and their families dealing with HIV and AIDS, the principles found here can be applied to anyone with a terminal illness who finds himself/herself on the other side of accepted society. It shows us that instead of being critical, we should accept where people and their choices have led them, doing our best to minister with the love and care of Jesus.

It is told simply for children and youth as a great example of love for His fellow men. The story of the earthy life of Christ Our Saviour is written without words in ten thousand forms on every feature of nature, in every phase of human experience, in every fact of life. We can never fully realize how deep is the impression, how wide-spread is the influence of the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Every blessing of every kind comes to us through that connection between heaven and earth, which was formed when the Lord of glory espoused the cause of a world lost in sin.The infinite pathos of that story has inspired the pen of the learned and the tongue of the eloquent. But it is best told in child-like language. The wonderful spectacle needs no human coloring. Its glory surpasses the art of men. It shines brightest in its own luster.In these pages no effort is made toward artificial embellishment. The plain story is simply told by pen that is moved with a deep sense of the infinite proportions on the subject. May it be received in the same simplicity and purity of faith.

What if you discovered an old journal written by King David when he was just a boy? What if this journal contained all of the stories you know and love about David but were penned by his own hand and included his fears, his victories, his mistakes, his accomplishments … and so much more?Only a Boy Named David is written in the first person as if David was writing his experiences in a journal. Based on the Bible, familiar stories come alive in a whole new way as you read a first-hand account about what it must have been like to kill a lion that was attacking the sheep or what it felt like to flee from Saul.David has much to teach about faith, surrender, trust, and obedience. Through each experience that is documented in his journal, it is clear that he loved God above all else. David's songs are one example of his devotion to Yahweh.Be inspired to live your life according to God's plan as you read about David's time as a shepherd, a warrior, a fugitive, and finally, a king.

In these last days, it is essential to understand these amazing books and to see how they apply to what we are witnessing today.To many, understanding Bible prophecies is a daunting task. What do the symbols mean? What are the words telling us? What is the actual history being played out in the pages of these books? Harold Newton understands that answering these questions can be overwhelming, and it is his goal to shed light through his engaging and straightforward comments, on the history and symbolism found in these prophetic books.This compilation is taken from the King James Version of the Bible with Harold's illuminating commentary sprinkled throughout to help bring the reader to a deeper understanding of Bible prophecy and its importance in the apocalyptic events going on around us.

The Bible contains precious promises and warnings that multitudes have never read. Many have not heard of Jesus, who died to save them. People are dying every day without the love of God in their hearts, and we need to warn them of their danger before it is forever too late. Are you dying without the love of God in your heart? Are you in danger? It is not too late--where there is life, there is hope! Give your heart to Jesus NOW. Dear Jesus, I give you my heart and my life. Show me how to live my life for You. I love you Jesus. Amen."All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16, 17.
