Preaching the Gospel and Feeding the Flock

“Modern Judaism and True Christianity,” is the new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Jesus strongly condemned human traditions in Judaism which did away with the Law of God, including man-made Sabbath regulations, dishonoring parents and ritual washings. Today, it is not that much different. This program examines undue restrictions and liberal trends in modern Judaism, pertaining to the Sabbath, same sex marriages and transgender, which are all in total opposition to the Bible and true Christianity.

The program offers three of our free booklets (“Old Testament Laws—Still Valid Today?”; “God’s Commanded Holy Days”; and “The Keys to Happy Marriages and Families.”)

“Die Zehn Europäischen Wiederauferstehungen des Ehemaligen Römischen Reiches,“ is our newest booklet which has been translated into German. It will be posted shortly on our German website. The English version is, “The Ten European Revivals of the Ancient Roman Empire.” Along with further translations, the additional printing of German booklets has become necessary, and work is under way to accomplish this in the near future.

“Gottes Sabbate— Für Uns Heute?” is the title for a new German AufPostenStehen program. Title in English: “God’s Sabbaths—For Us Today?” The program promotes and offers two of our free German booklets, dealing with the Sabbath and the annual Holy Days.

“Kennt Gott unsere Zukunft?” is the title of the German sermon for this coming Sabbath, which is based on the Q&A for this week’s Update. Title in English: “Does God Know Our Future?”

“Today,” last Sabbath’s sermonette presented by Eric Rank, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Those who are called out of the world to understand God’s truth today have a distinct and awesome privilege. They are blessed with the raw materials necessary to understand God’s Truth, truly become obedient, and overcome sin by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. This opportunity is unique because it is available in the present moment. Christians do not need to wait to take an active role in fulfilling the plan of God.

“Freedom From What?” is the title of the sermon presented by Robb Harris last Sabbath. It is now posted and here is a summary:

The world seeks freedom from oppression, yet the most oppressive tyrant of all keeps the world in spiritual slavery.  Only through God’s Holy Spirit can we see the slavery Satan subjugates mankind with.  And only by God opening our eyes can we see what true freedom is.

The speaking schedule for May have been posted on our website.

A new Member Letter has been mailed. In it, Dave Harris offers a short review of our recent Conference along with summaries relative to Passover and the Days of Unleavened Bread in both the U.S. and Germany.

“Wrong Political Opinions and Your Reaction,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary.

US political candidates have begun their battle for the presidency, while uttering opinions which are totally opposed to the Holy Scriptures. What is your reaction when you hear those comments, or when you see how the nation is descending further and further into the abyss of lawlessness and ungodliness? Are you indifferent about it, thinking it does not matter? The Bible tells us unequivocally what are abominations in God’s eyes, and He pronounces severe punishment on such conduct. We are also clearly informed as to how we, as Christians, must behave when we are confronted with transgressions of God’s Law.

“Seit Wann Wirkt Gott in Ihrem Leben?” is the title of a new German sermon. The title in English is (approximately), “How Long Has God Worked in Your Life?”

“Perseverance,” the sermonette given by Mike Link last Sabbath, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Despite difficulty in the trials we go through in our lives, are we strong enough to remain faithful to God’s way of life?

“Sinning Against the Holy Spirit,” is the sermon given last Sabbath by Norbert Link. This powerful presentation addresses ALL Christians with unmistakable warnings found in God’s Word!

Here is a summary:

The sin against the Holy Spirit is the unpardonable sin, which will not be forgiven. Why is this so? And how can we determine whether we are in danger of committing the unpardonable sin? The Bible gives us important hints.

“US Foreign Policy Worse Than Ever Before!” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

The discussions about the “deal” between the USA and Iran are ongoing. America is accused of being weak and pursuing a policy of appeasement that emboldens Iran, while antagonizing Israel. The “deal” does not address Iran’s terrorist activities nor its desire to eradicate Israel, and President Obama and his administration are charged with creating an unbelievable Middle East powder keg, setting the stage for an unprecedented conflict. America’s downfall is inevitable, and the vacuum will be filled by other nations, according to biblical prophecy.

“Wann ist Heute der Sabbat?” is the new German sermon for this Sabbath. Title in English: “When is the Sabbath Today?”

Three German sermons given by Norbert Link and one given by Mike Link during their visit to Germany for the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread are now posted: http://www.aufpostenstehen.de/category/videos/sermons/

Several recent sermonettes and sermons by Dave Harris, Rene Messier, Brian Gale, Eric Rank, Kalon Mitchell and Joe Bourque are now posted:  http://www.eternalgod.org/sermons/

The Church conference concluded this week, and we will report more in the upcoming April Member Letter. Additionally, Norbert Link and Mike Link are leaving for Germany on Sunday, March 29, 2015, to conduct Passover services and observe the Days of Unleavened Bread. They will follow up with the baptism and counseling requests we have received along with other administrative matters for the Church in Germany. Brian Gale will conduct Passover services in San Diego, and he and Jill will stay for the Days of Unleavened Bread. Rene Messier will be conducting Passover services in Oregon, while the Colorado ministry will conduct Passover services locally.

“Defenseless Against Nuclear Attacks?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

More and more commentators warn against an all-encompassing nuclear war, and Russia has claimed that it could turn America into radioactive ash. Vladimir Putin admitted that he was willing to use nuclear weapons against the West when he annexed Crimea. Forbes magazine points out that America is hopelessly defenseless against incoming long-range ballistic missiles and that all it can do is “lay waste.” Sadly, that is exactly what the Bible prophesies, and God thunders at all of us to wake up.

“Erfolgreiche Gebete–in Jesu Namen,” is the new German sermon for this Sabbath. It is the final installment of a series about prayer. Title in English: “Successful Prayers–In Jesus’ Name.”

“Should Christians Keep Easter?” is the new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link, as part of our promotional endeavor to call attention to our message and the many aspects of the Work of the Church.

Here is a summary:

Was Jesus crucified on a Friday and resurrected on Sunday morning? If so, how did He fulfill the sign of His Messiahship that He was to be three days and three nights in the grave? If not, how did Christianity come to believe in a Friday crucifixion and Sunday morning resurrection? And where do our Easter customs come from? Why do we color eggs and believe in an egg-laying rabbit? Did early Christians keep Easter?

A new Member Letter has been written by Norbert Link. In it, Mr. Link reviews the theme of preparing for the Passover and points to several written messages from the ministry during the past several weeks which have all focused on our need to really take our calling to heart!

In addition, a new Member Letter to the German brethren has been written in which Mr. Link addresses points relative to the Passover and Days of Unleavened Bread. He, along with Mike Link, will depart for Germany following the Church Conference which is currently in progress in San Diego, California.

“Erfolgreiche Gebete—Dein Ist die Herrlichkeit” is the title of this week’s German sermon. The title in English is “Successful Prayers—‘Yours Is the Glory!’”

Preaching the Gospel and Feeding the Flock

Our annual Church Conference, to be held in San Diego, California, will begin on Friday, March 20th and conclude on Tuesday, March 24, 2015.

A new promotional endeavor featuring the StandingWatch program about Easter is being implemented. This is the second broad-based media activity we are using to call attention to our message and the many aspects of the Work of the Church.

“Should Christians Keep Easter?” is the new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Does Easter really commemorate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ? Find out the truth about Easter and its customs!

“Erfolgreiche Gebete—‘Dein ist die Kraft!’” is the title of this week’s German sermon. The title in English is “Successful Prayers—‘Yours Is the Power!’”

“Russia and Iran in Prophecy,” the opening message from last Sabbath by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Terrible things are happening in Russia and Iran, but the Western world seems to be oblivious to these traumatic events. Opponents to Vladimir Putin are convinced that he is directly or at least indirectly responsible for the murder of Boris Nemtsov, and the numerous “unusual events” surrounding his murder and the many examples of prior murders of Putin’s opponents seem to support their reasoning. The Bible tells us very clearly what is about to happen in and pertaining to Russia, as well as its proxy, Iran, and why many governmental leaders seem to be sound asleep.

“Heaven or Hell?” the sermon from last Sabbath presented by Kalon Mitchell, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Nominal Christianity believes that either you will go to heaven or hell when you die. But is this understanding correct, based on what the Bible has to say about the subject? How can we know what will happen to us when we die? Can we base our lives and faith on what we read in the Bible or should we lean on false knowledge passed down over the centuries?

“HEAVENS AND EARTH…BEFORE AND AFTER THE FIRST MAN!” has been sent to the printer. We anticipate that this newest booklet, written by Norbert Link, will be available in April.

“Listen to Netanyahu!” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Many have criticized Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his address to the American Congress. However, his warnings against Iran were extremely important and very convincing. This program quotes and analyzes some of his major statements and points out what is in store for Israel, Iran, America and the rest of the world. We are offering two free booklets, “The Fall and Rise of Britain and America,” and “Middle Eastern and African Nations in Bible Prophecy.”

“The Mystery of the Holy Spirit”–the sermon presented last Sabbath by Norbert Link — is now posted. Here is a summary:

Who gives us the Holy Spirit? In what way is the Holy Spirit “one”? Who resides in true Christians? Is the Holy Spirit a person? The Bible many times uses figurative language when referring to the Holy Spirit. Still, why are descriptions used which seem to imply personhood and conscious activities of the Holy Spirit? Are we unduly restricting and misunderstanding some of those passages?

“Erfolgreiche Gebete um Erlösung vom Bösen,” is the title of this week’s German sermon. It covers successful prayers for deliverance from evil.

Please remember to pray for God’s guidance during our upcoming 2015 Church Conference. We will meet in San Diego, California, beginning Friday, March 20th and continue through Tuesday, March 24th.

A new marketing campaign that will include press releases and Facebook ads has begun. “When and How Will Christ Return?” is the first featured publication, with other aspects of the work of the Church, such as StandingWatch, to follow. September Danforth-Prentice, with a background in media support, is helping in this endeavor as the Church seeks an even broader audience for the message we must proclaim.

“HEAVENS AND EARTH…BEFORE AND AFTER THE FIRST MAN!” has been sent to graphic designer, Shelly Bruno, to finalize for printing. We anticipate that this newest booklet, written by Norbert Link, will be available in April.

“War Is a Solution to Nothing!” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Why is war so wrong? Why is it a curse in God’s eyes? Two of many examples given in this program show beyond a doubt why God is totally opposed to man’s fighting in war.

“Erfolgreiche Gebete um Schutz vor Versuchung!” is the new German sermon for this coming Sabbath. This new sermon continues the series on successful prayers, covering in this installment the request,” … do not lead us into temptation,” and it points out why this rendering is wrong, and what Jesus actually meant with His statement. Title in English: “Successful Prayers for Protection from Temptation.”

“Knowing God,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Eric Rank, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Do you know God? Does God know you? Many people claim to have a personal relationship with God, but do they really have it? Understanding the nature of your relationship with God will help you to build and maintain that relationship in ways that are crucial to your future.

Please remember to pray for God’s guidance during our upcoming 2015 Church Conference. We will meet in San Diego, California, beginning Friday, March 20th and continue through Tuesday, March 24th.
