God bless you Pastor for having bravely spoken those words that some pastors are afraid of to speak . These words should be heard from our leaders to keep us informed well and not be deceived. Truly God is using you and few others to speak openly. May the Lord protect you and your family.
Thank you for speaking up about this in our church. It was very hard to be feeling like a black sheep and to be turned away from help with the mandates. I lost my job as a nurse, but I have been brought closer to HIM who sustains me. HE doesn't let us down.. unlike people. Thank you pastor for speaking up, thank you!
@AnnWan-bs2xn thank you, and Praise God for I have been able to work from home.. I lost my career, but know that HE hears my humble cry. My faith has been strengthened with trusting HIM who sustains us.
@@happyC2836 Amen, All glory be to His name. He will never leave nor forsake us. He will indeed take care of your needs. Your life is a testimony to many.
Thank you Pastor James. Senator Pauline Hanson and a handful of others in Australia have been a fighting in our Senate against mandates. They have been a voice to the victims of this terrible crime against humanity. May God bring them to stand with His holy people when the final test comes. I am still suspended from entering my workplace of 16 years because mandates are in place. But God has been wonderful to me. He has provided my every need and my faith has increased because of it. I wouldn't change a thing. Bless you.
Thank you, Lord Jesus! Please work in us so that we will completely surrender all we are and have into Your hands by the Spirit of the Lord and the authority and power of Jesus Christ. Help us to be empowered by the lovely Jesus to die to self and become alive in and to Jesus only. I ask in Jesus name. Amen! Bless you our mighty God!

Finally, someone, a man led by God has the courage to address the “elephant in the room” of the SDA church. I pray this is taken to heart and the division which now exists can be mended and repented of. Let’s humble ourselves and seek the truth of both God’s word and the lesser light. ❤
@@lisachambers3683 this lessor light I’m speaking of is a prophet who,spoke the words......she was pointing to the Bible as the light, and her writings were the lessor light pointing to the word.
@@lisachambers3683 well, I know Im not worshipping the moon or Ellen White. The Bible is truth, so we agree there. God bless you Lisa. Thanks for your input.
@lisachambers3683 you are being disingenuous, she calls herself the "lesser light" because as the moons light is not its own, but merely a reflection of the sun, so therefore she uses the term in its most obvious sense, to proclaim that she is reflecting the light of the Bible.
This is present truth and the message that we need in this day in which we’re living. Liberty of Conscience is being Threatened, just like the chapter in the Great Controversy states. The very next chapter, The Impending Conflict will be just that, a “conflict” that we need to be preparing for right now. We are living in perilous times and we need Christ in our lives now more than ever. Christ will help us through the coming conflict when we surrender our will to Him. He will send the Comforter and He will give us the strengths that we need to bring us through these times of trouble that are just ahead. We will have victory in Jesus if we continue in Him. And the victory that we have will be everlasting and eternal! Praise God!!
That was an amazing sermon and this man needs to speak more, he is enlightened by God and has a message for our timeS. Thank you Pastor James, we need more preachers like you.

Dear Pastor Thank You for standing for us the members of the church,we knew something was wrong with the conference siding with the government and we never imagine this would happen to the people of God,keep faithful standing for the truth and that will gives courage
Sadly, as he pointed out in this sermon, our SDA Church officially supports abortion, and have supported it for decades. So this siding with the govt. over forcing others to put something into your body is to be expected. We must repent for supporting abortion now!
What a timely and powerful message- thank you pastor Rafferty. Your message has reminded me that there are thousands who have not bowed their knees to Baal nor kissed him 🙏🙏🙏
19:50 Amen! The time of no buy or sell will be a blessing to get our minds off of things of this world, and get out and spread the Three Angels' Messages that we should be doing now. 29:15 Amen! When the conscience is forced, there is no Holy Spirit. Now apply that to the Church's official stand on abortion! 39:25 "Medical institutions bearing our name m-- unborn babies." Wow! This is straight truth that hardly any SDA will admit, let alone let it escape their lips in front of others! I'm amazed and praising God for this straight truth. How can the Holy Spirit ever be poured out on our SDA church when we officially support ripping Jesus apart in the womb?! May God richly bless you, Pr. Rafferty, and may our church leaders heed your call, and may we individually heed and follow it.
This is a message to recommit to God Almighty. The message of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church is necessarily tough and goes against the zeitgeist of the day. Bless this last day message. Praying for our strength to hold on. Anywhere with Jesus we can safely go. I will go now and pray for me. Help me Jesus. Thank you for this gentleman with a spine of steel for Jesus.
Village Church, I would like to say thank you very much for these powerful messages. I praise God for utilizing these godly men to share Gods message. Greetings from Bakersfield California USA!
BEEN LISTENING TO THIS PASTOR FOR SOMETIME NOW; ALWAYS FOUND HIS MESSAGES TO BE ON POINT.THANK GOD FOR PASTORS LIKE HIM. JOHN 8:32 YE SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE. CONTINUE TO BE STRONG PASTOR JAMES! YOU ARE HELPING MANY PEOPLE TO BE STRONG IN THEIR CONVICT WHEN IT COMES TO RELIGIOUS FREEDOM FREEDOM. PREACHING THE WORD IN SEASON IS WHAT YOU ARE DOING. GOD BLESS YOU 😢.
PRAISE THE LORD FOR YOU, PASTOR RAFFERTY! God bless you. Stand strong! Please pray that the eyes of Ted Wilson will be opened and his heart humbled to correct the damage he did to my sister & brother-in-law & other family members by not giving them support and a way out of this evil tyranny!
Thank you for calling out the sin and hypocrisy in the church. We need to stop the gaslighting and dissembling, to confess our sins and repent for what we did or stood by and kept silent while it was done. This is not over. The spirit of persecution will be back around and probably very soon. We MUST do better as a church. So help us God!
Thank you for this message. Very good. I’m in Australia & I worked as a CW in an aged care facility & was told if I didn’t take the jab then I would not receive any more shifts. Problem was my shifts were permanent. I had to resign. My friend with whom I worked did not resign but was told she could not come to work until she took the jab. She never took it & 6 months later she was removed from employment. I’m glad I never took the jab because God blessed me abundantly more. Many people I know who took the jab are now dead. The death rate has doubled here in Australia & 1/2 of those have received the jabs.
im also from there..SDAs have really no IDEA or just feeling safe & relaxing,..Before the invention of Switzerland Bank Vaults, & Federal Banking System..Temples & Cathedrals were used as Bank Vaults and office for Banking System(Federal) for buying & selling Sacrificial animals(now called Human souls or Seeds))..That is Why.. Jesus prophesied against the Temple of Judah(46 Years to build) in Middleeast was The Abomination of Desolation standing on the Holy Ground(God is the Holy Ground)..None of these Stones will remain standing..thus it was destroyed by the Roman Soldiers and they were looking for Golds & valuables stored or deposited in the Temple... for your Info: No more Temple(no more Church and its 10 laws ,only 2 Great Laws) in the The New Heaven & Earth and no more Sun & Sea...
I was one of the lucky ones that didn't have to get the jabs to keep my job and it was business as usual; where I work. But if they would have said I had to get it to keep my job, I woukd have quit. I feel so bad for those that were doctors, nurses, etc. Firefighters, thatnlost their jobs abd ao many loat everything as a result. I was so shocked that the Conference didn't back anyone uo or help their own brethren. It was a really terrible time. But a forrunner for the time of trouble to see where we stand and if we will let someone force our conscience. Great sermon this is, thank you for speakiing truth.
Cannot remember hearing such a timley message !! we were reminded the seriousness of the time , and the closeness of our Saviour 's return !! Signs are all around us , and the last movements will be rapid !! We have to be in a state of readiness . Thank you Pastor .
Pastor Rafferty has been studying Daniel and Revelation for years. Village Church, please consider asking Pastor Rafferty to speak at the next Daniel 11 Symposium. 🙏
Happy Sabbath to Pastor James and family thank you for standing up for "Thus saith the Lord" and not thus says man. God will supply all your needs. Remember Jesus Christ had nothing so count it all joy, now you can feed God children who are thirsty for truth and righteousness ❤. God bless you and family in Jesus name 🙏
This message is so impactful and rich in history, and Spiritual teachings & truth that I had to listen to it many times over to get a fuller sense of the message in its entirety! 🙏✝️🙏
Thank you so much for this sermon James!!! I think many of us (hopefully most of us Americans) were thinking but have not said much about what just occurred the last 2 years!! Thank you for preaching this and saying what most of us are thinking! Shameful of the SDA church for their stance on this topic
I hope you become the president of the SDA church one day. We need people like you as a leader. Standing up when the world is against us that is the test.
AMEN! Thank you GOD and EGW for reminding us through Pastor James of these bedrock principles. Thank you Pastor for doing the work for this MESSAGE for our last days here in this crumbling world. Again I say Amen !

Thank u so much Ps. I had to share, share. Our mindset now needs to be totally on last day events and mandates that violate the "Creators" mandates for His earth and people.
LORD thank you! For this great message!! May you Lord continue.... to hold these men of God in your Mighty Hands please! Continue... to put your Faith in them strengthen them now I pray as you strengthen us too now. we want to have that Faith just as the 3 Hebrew boys and Daniel to stay faithful you and be true. Lord we love you and we trust you with our life. Holy spirit Please! Live out your life in us and through us that the character of Jesus christ be seen in us and through us. Is my asking with thanks giving in Jesus Name Amen 🙏.
Praise God for keeping me listening and HIS scripture. There need to be a massive movement in the body of Christ to loudly proclaim this message. Thank God for Remnant Brave Servants like this Pastor. I know there are many out there as there was in Elijahs time. Brothers and Sisters we're a force on our knees in prayers, fasting assisting the 3 angels message. Equipp us please HOLY SPIRIT.
I have more respect for James Rafferty than any other pastor simply because he isn't afraid to stand up for his true beliefs. Especially concerning the mandates. I also have great respect for Elder Eric Walsh. God bless them both. There are others of course. God bless them as well. They give me hope. I appreciate them so much. These are what l call men with a spine. Thank you God.❤🙏🙏🙏
Finally, a pastor speaking out against the SDA conference. If the conference can't stand for this liberty, just wait until the real time comes--sadly, I think they will be a tare. Shame on them for not supporting their flock and people losing their jobs.
Um really make me think what you said, people got desperate when job is on the line wonder what will happen when Sunday law comes around and your job is on the line
It's not a church!! ( it's an association)!!! that's got an investigative judgment.. that got created in the first place!!!! that Ellen says the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10 is the (devil) !!! that's what you have an investigative judgment!!! the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10((( is Jesus Christ on the cross ))1st Peter 2:24!
Sadly, our Church has been violating religious liberty of the least of these my brethren for decades. The Holy Spirit will never be poured out on a Church that supports offing Jesus in the womb.
Praise God, thankful for this message. My second day straight watching it again for the second time to capture this awakening message. I’m thankful for the Testimony of Jesus, SOP, which helps me to understand underlying workings that are not characteristic of God.
Amen Brother Rafferty. All glory, honor, and praise to GOD. Father in Heaven, please help me... Please, Father in Heaven, sanctify me through and settle me in the Truth, in Jesus Christ's holy name I pray - Amen.
Thank you Pastor for speaking and challenging the fact and real truth o f what had happened. May church members stand up and keep the faith no matter what comes from the leadership. Sta n d firm and hold fast till He comes.
What are you holding onto?? your false prophet Ellen says, the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10, is the( devil)!!( which is Jesus Christ himself ,in 1st Peter 2:24.. you have nothing!
All due respect brother Rafferty EXEPT for Black people whilst we're talking freedom we were the economic engine of this so called "Great Country "but I still appreciate your love for the Gospel
Praise God for HIS Love, the truth shall never be Compromised or hidden from your people. Thank you Pastor for confirming what many of us held on straight from GODS truth. HELP US HOLY SPIRIT. Your truth will set us free.
Let me share with you how that came down in one SDA Church. The board voted you couldn’t go to church if you didn’t wear a mask and finally resented that vote about 6 months later but it was a thinly vailed attack on me. We and a couple of other families produced church from private homes so our members who refused to go to church could attend Sabbath School and Church with Zoom inspite of being ban from the church building. We preached for our members from a step ladder and with 3 computers so our members would be blessed with God’s Word. My Dr was so scared they wouldn’t even write a letter of expectation even though I was clearly exempt so that fed the excuse when the church should have treated me better than my Dr. This was how my religious liberty was violated.
Thank you I needed that not necessarily the reinforcement of everything. I’ve been talking about for the last few years just the encouragement that somebody highly visible like yourself is preaching the truth filled message for today in James Rafferty you’re a great example!
Amen to Almighty God's Spirit speaking to His Church, His beloved Bride!! And Father Let the Church " Hear what the Spirit says to the Church. Thanks God and Your willing messenger to deliver such impactful content. Help me & us to humbly receive and live this message! Have mercy on us 🙌🙏
It's sad but true that only FEW courageous men are willing to call out the church for their mishandling and double standards concerning religious liberty and mandates. Anyone else would have been considered an offshoot or church bashing for simply speaking the truth as it is. Saints, get your heads out of the sand and wake up before it's too late. You're not saved by a church or the conference. you're saved by grace through Christ. Have mercy.
Agreed. God's church is constituted not by a denominational structure that holds the legal rights to the name Seventh-day Adventist. It is made up by God's faithful people. "God's Faithful Constitute the Church The church is God’s fortress, His city of refuge, which He holds in a revolted world. Any betrayal of the church is treachery to Him who has bought mankind with the blood of His only-begotten Son. From the beginning, faithful souls have constituted the church on earth. In every age the Lord has had His watchmen, who have borne a faithful testimony to the generation in which they lived. These sentinels gave the message of warning; and when they were called to lay off their armor, others took up the work. God brought these witnesses into covenant relation with Himself, uniting the church on earth with the church in heaven. He has sent forth His angels to minister to His church, and the gates of hell have not been able to prevail against His people. { AA 11.2} Through centuries of persecution, conflict, and darkness, God has sustained His church. Not one cloud has fallen upon it that He has not prepared for; not one opposing force has risen to counterwork His work, that He has not foreseen. All has taken place as He predicted. He has not left His church forsaken, but has traced in prophetic declarations what would occur, and that which His Spirit inspired the prophets to foretell has been brought about. All His purposes will be fulfilled. His law is linked with His throne, and no power of evil can destroy it. Truth is inspired and guarded by God; and it will triumph over all opposition. { AA 11.3}"
Praise GOD 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏!!! God is in control of everything❤❤❤.
God bless you Pastor for having bravely spoken those words that some pastors are afraid of to speak . These words should be heard from our leaders to keep us informed well and not be deceived. Truly God is using you and few others to speak openly. May the Lord protect you and your family.

🙏❤❤❤❤❤🙏
I have more respect for James Rafferty than any other pastor simply because he isn't afraid to stand up for his true beliefs. Especially concerning the mandates.
I also have great respect for Elder Eric Walsh. God bless them both. There are others of course. God bless them as well. They give me hope. I appreciate them so much.
These are what l call men with a spine. Thank you God.❤🙏🙏🙏
Amen! Force is not of God
Help us Lord to Stand
Finally, a pastor speaking out against the SDA conference. If the conference can't stand for this liberty, just wait until the real time comes--sadly, I think they will be a tare. Shame on them for not supporting their flock and people losing their jobs.
Um really make me think what you said, people got desperate when job is on the line wonder what will happen when Sunday law comes around and your job is on the line
Thank God for him speaking up against our church’s violation of religious liberty!
It's not a church!! ( it's an association)!!! that's got an investigative judgment.. that got created in the first place!!!! that Ellen says the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10 is the (devil) !!! that's what you have an investigative judgment!!! the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10((( is Jesus Christ on the cross ))1st Peter 2:24!
Sadly, our Church has been violating religious liberty of the least of these my brethren for decades.
The Holy Spirit will never be poured out on a Church that supports offing Jesus in the womb.
Good service. Very relevant now, in 2024.
Praise God, thankful for this message. My second day straight watching it again for the second time to capture this awakening message. I’m thankful for the Testimony of Jesus, SOP, which helps me to understand underlying workings that are not characteristic of God.
Thanks for this message when I listen to it I shared it with those who are in my phone 📞 blessings 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Bravo Pastor Raverty

Thank you Pastor for speaking and challenging the fact and real truth o f what had happened. May church members stand up and keep the faith no matter what comes from the leadership. Sta n d firm and hold fast till He comes.
What are you holding onto?? your false prophet Ellen says, the second Goat of Leviticus 16:10, is the( devil)!!( which is Jesus Christ himself ,in 1st Peter 2:24.. you have nothing!
This preacher is stating everything that he should be no one else wants to speak about! Praise God for a Pastor that refuses to be a, dumb-dog!!
🙏✝️🙏

Praise God for HIS Love, the truth shall never be Compromised or hidden from your people. Thank you Pastor for confirming what many of us held on straight from GODS truth. HELP US HOLY SPIRIT. Your truth will set us free.
They would not understand. They're on the wrong side. Powerful sermon. Thank you
Thank you!! Restrictions on religious freedoms was what I thought we were waiting to stand up to.
Let me share with you how that came down in one SDA Church. The board voted you couldn’t go to church if you didn’t wear a mask and finally resented that vote about 6 months later but it was a thinly vailed attack on me. We and a couple of other families produced church from private homes so our members who refused to go to church could attend Sabbath School and Church with Zoom inspite of being ban from the church building. We preached for our members from a step ladder and with 3 computers so our members would be blessed with God’s Word. My Dr was so scared they wouldn’t even write a letter of expectation even though I was clearly exempt so that fed the excuse when the church should have treated me better than my Dr. This was how my religious liberty was violated.
Amen Pastor l am so encouraged and revived May the good Lord continue sustaining you until your life work is done serving God in your generation.
Excellent sermon that all church and hospital leaders should watch with prayer and fasting.
Thankyou Pastor for your courage. Great sermon!🙏
Amen James. God bless and protect you and your family and congregation. Miss you brother 🙏🙏🙏
Powerful sermon!!! Thank you pastor!!
Praise the Lord, The Lord blessed you speaking the truth, Pastor James.
Truth, hope the G C is listening
The GC never listens it is ALL about money with them!
Thanks pastor on the enlightenment, God is indeed in control of his creation.
Thank you I needed that not necessarily the reinforcement of everything. I’ve been talking about for the last few years just the encouragement that somebody highly visible like yourself is preaching the truth filled message for today in James Rafferty you’re a great example!
SPOT ON!!! Praise God!!
The protest continues by God's grace 🙏
Wonderful support and truth. Well done 👏 ✔️
Amen to Almighty God's Spirit speaking to His Church, His beloved Bride!! And Father Let the Church " Hear what the Spirit says to the Church. Thanks God and Your willing messenger to deliver such impactful content. Help me & us to humbly receive and live this message! Have mercy on us 🙌🙏
Amen Brother James.
MERCY !! AMEN 🙏🏽 BELOVED. THANK YOU PR RAFFERTY
❤Amen. God be with us!
It's sad but true that only FEW courageous men are willing to call out the church for their mishandling and double standards concerning religious liberty and mandates. Anyone else would have been considered an offshoot or church bashing for simply speaking the truth as it is. Saints, get your heads out of the sand and wake up before it's too late. You're not saved by a church or the conference. you're saved by grace through Christ. Have mercy.
Agreed. God's church is constituted not by a denominational structure that holds the legal rights to the name Seventh-day Adventist. It is made up by God's faithful people.
"God's Faithful Constitute the Church
The church is God’s fortress, His city of refuge, which He holds in a revolted world. Any betrayal of the church is treachery to Him who has bought mankind with the blood of His only-begotten Son. From the beginning, faithful souls have constituted the church on earth. In every age the Lord has had His watchmen, who have borne a faithful testimony to the generation in which they lived. These sentinels gave the message of warning; and when they were called to lay off their armor, others took up the work. God brought these witnesses into covenant relation with Himself, uniting the church on earth with the church in heaven. He has sent forth His angels to minister to His church, and the gates of hell have not been able to prevail against His people. { AA 11.2}
Through centuries of persecution, conflict, and darkness, God has sustained His church. Not one cloud has fallen upon it that He has not prepared for; not one opposing force has risen to counterwork His work, that He has not foreseen. All has taken place as He predicted. He has not left His church forsaken, but has traced in prophetic declarations what would occur, and that which His Spirit inspired the prophets to foretell has been brought about. All His purposes will be fulfilled. His law is linked with His throne, and no power of evil can destroy it. Truth is inspired and guarded by God; and it will triumph over all opposition. { AA 11.3}"
@SolaScriptura4Me This is absolutely one of my favorite quotes by the prophet.
@@SolaScriptura4MeThe Seventh-day Adventist Church is the only Church in the world that is not part of Babylon.
Excellent sermon Pastor
Amen, amen and amen!
Praise the Lord above for His liberty
Amen, LORD!!!❤❤❤
Wow!! Powerful!
