Pastor Korter preached a stirring sermon this past Sabbath at Bellingham, Wa SDA church. The message is centered around Acts 8:4-8. Here are some of the sermon highlights:

In America, less than 20 percent of population attends church each week. How can we stay close to Jesus by forsaking church? Jesus is the head of the church. Church is criticized from inside and outside. To despise the church is to despise Jesus. We live in a time when any authority is despised (religious or secular).

We are living in the time of the end. Respect for church of God is declining rapidly. What is it that causes churches to grow? Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence scenario. Mega churches are not preaching the truth from the Bible. The messages these churches are based on is to come as you are and feel good. Be careful about deception. The truth is in the Bible. Go to a church that preaches what is in the Bible.

Samuel was a great man in Old Testament times. The people of Israel wanted a King. Samuel gave them a King. We have a King. His name is Jesus. Two things in early church relate to today’s world.

1. Proclamation of the Gospel
Acts 8:4 Therefore those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word.
The disciples boldly shared the word. Many lost their life.

God gives us the ability to see the big picture. Truth has always been in the minority. Can you handle people thinking that you are strange? Off your rocker?? Acts 8:5 The Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them. The disciples preached their hearts out. A certain amount of persecution will come if you follow Jesus Christ.

Acts 8:8 There was great joy in that city. Can we be filled with missionary zeal? At all cost, can we break bread with people in need of the bread of life?
2. Persecution of the Church
Acts 8:1 At that time a great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem.

John Wesley was an incredible man of God. He was out spreading the word. He noticed there had been three whole days since he had been persecuted. He stopped his horse in a country lane and went down on his knees and prayed that God would show him any sin in his life. A man on the other side of the road heard Wesley’s prayer and said I will fix that mister and hurled a brick at Wesley. The brick missed Wesley and then John Wesley said: “Thank you God, I am still in your service, no matter what”.

When we preach the Seventh-day Adventist message from Jesus to others, we are sharing the truth from the word. The Gospel is not just in the New Testament. The Gospel is in between the two leather bound covers of the Bible. We cannot apologize for sharing the true message. People may speak unkindly to us. Prophecy tells us those that keep the truth of the Bible will be looked upon as different as those that do not. God’s true church is never suppossed to be like the other churches. It never will be. We are called to chose the church that preaches the truth of the Bible. We are not to go to a church that makes us feel good without hearing the truth. We must share the Love of God in our church.

To be a true disciple, we have to share Jesus like Philip. What are we waiting for?

Heard a great sermon from David Asscherick’s Arise Institute today on Three Angels Broadcasting network. David mentioned that at the time of the end, deception and false preaching will be rampant. How can we know we are not deceived since Satan will also be able to do good deeds and shine bright? Here are six simple steps for believers:

1. Read the Word
2. Study the Word
3. Believe the Word
4. Obey the Word
5. Cherish the Word
6. Share the Word

The word is the Bible. Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth.

My seven year old Dell desktop has serious driver problems. I had Windows XP Home 2002 edition software. The geek squad at Best Buy told me they can probably pull the database and other files off my hard drive and put the files on an external drive for me.

Machines only last so long. Technology changes so fast. I am writing on a new Toshiba laptop right now. This new laptop has Windows 7 software. The new technology is amazing. There is far more memory on this laptop than my desktop had.

I am really thankful that my system crashed near commissions payout time with the Whole Wellness Club. Our company owner pays us faster than any other company period. I had my funds on my Global Cash Card at 17:00 hours Pacific time on 3. September 2010 and this allowed me to stay on top of my customers orders so as to not delay any product shipments.

Our pastor shared a powerful message this morning at church. Pastor Brandon Korter is the pastor of the Bellingham Seventh-day Adventist church. His sermon this morning was titled: “Losing to Win”. Here are some of the highlights from his message.

Do not be Deceived. Deception goes all the way back to the Garden of Eden in Genesis 3:

Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” 2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.

As we get closer to the coming of Jesus, the challenge to make right decisions is causing serious problems in our society. Being a Christian is not about focusing on ourselves. Our society is all wrapped up in SELF. Jesus said: “Do not be of the World. Be in the World.” Our society is centered around me, myself, and I. Greatest battle a human being will ever have is with ‘self’.

How do we overcome human nature?
Matthew 10:16-22
Behold, I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

You are either a sheep or a wolf. There is a clear line of demarcation. Do you really want to be a sheep? There are wolves in sheep’s clothing. Jesus is assuming we are sheep. There is no half way point. Sheep have to be tended to often-sheep are very needy. Jesus understands our constant need of Him.

verse 17:
Beware of men, for they will deliver you over to courts and flog you in their synagogues.

What must we lose to get ready for Jesus coming? Are we willing to live by Biblical principles? We should live as an example. Kevin and Kenda are here worshiping with us today. They watched sheep here at this church.

verse 18-22
You will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the Gentiles. 19 When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. 20 For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you. 21 Brother will deliver brother over to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death, 22 and you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

Remember Rwanda in 1995? Hutus and Tutsis were fighting each other there to the point of genocide. Hutus attacked and killed many Tutsis. Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Tutsis squealed to Hutus that there were Tutsis hiding in the SDA church. Hutus went in to the church and killed them.

If we don’t get our way, do we scream, fight, and kick back? Or are we concerned about the welfare of our fellow Christians?

Pastor Korter mentions a train ride from Lithuiania to St. Petersburg, Russia. He and his Australian friend applied for Visas before leaving. The officials at the Russian embassy in Lithuiania switched the photos on the two men thereby the Australian man’s visa had Brandon Korter’s photo and vice versa. Because neither men could read Russian, they did not catch the problem.

The train they rode on had four Chinese men in the same car that Brandon rode on. Brandon asked the men if they knew about Jesus. None of them had heard of Jesus and Brandon shared for about an hour about Jesus. Then the train was at the border in the middle of the night.

It was 20 below zero at 03:00 and the Russian border guard opened Brandon’s compartment and got right in Brandon’s face and said: “You have a big problem”. After 2 hours of conversations, the Russian border guards allowed Brandon and his Australian friend into Russia.

Brandon was living on the promises of the Bible that by being a sheep, he can share Jesus with others.

If we practice being sheep with each other, we can turn wolves into sheep with Jesus help.

This recipe will be the first time I have used white flour in many years. Notice that the recipe calls for white flour with germ which means some of the nutrients are still in the flour.

Recently attended a weight loss seminar and learned that the following substances help the body with weight loss:
1) Green Tea Extract
2) Lipoic Acid
3) White Kidney Bean

By exercising each morning, eating a plant based diet that is full of foods that don’t have a nutrition label, and working outside on my small farm, I am at my ideal weight. You can also reach your goals if you eat a potato in its natural form without butter or sour cream and apply the same principles that I have.

Whole Wellness Club will soon offer the membership a new product called Caldera Greens. This product is a living mineral rich food that is grown in volcanic soil. The greens will be rich in folic acid and many other nutrients your body needs. The greens are processed within 5 hours of harvest. The greens are juiced and then dried at 65-80 degrees farenheit which means all the enzymes are kept in tact. The food is alive with enzymes. Chuck Dhuey who is an owner of the Whole Wellness Club stated he could feel the energy coursing through his veins when using the greens product.

The product will be available in several flavors and there will also be a capsule form for anyone not wanting to mix a greens powder into some pure cold water. The ORAC value will be between 4,000 and 5,000 making this a powerful antioxidant for your health.
