These Pastors explaining Last day theology are making it so easy to understand,more messages like this should be talken in Scotland and I mean within our Adventist Churches
What a glorious message!! And even more incredible, is EXPERIENCING the power of God in our own lives, as He sets us free from sin that once enslaved us!
C'mon SDA panel, let's go! Let's have your Sword of the Spirit out and ready to go! Let's be bold and speak up & be an example & forerunner for the congregation! The theology is true so now let's boldly go where few people fear to go in this world! SDAs have the repository of truth that should be preached to the entire world!
As we consider vindicating God's character and being like Jesus - Jesus was not just sinless; He also demonstrated selfless, sacrificial giving - He did justly, loved mercy, and walked humbly with His Son. He loved friends, enemies, neighbours, brethren - let's not focus on the sin we seek to avoid, but on the positive qualities of the Saviour who calls us to follow Him. Light extinguishes darkness. Dark-free isn't bright. Let's let God make us shine like the stars!
"If He withstood temptation in His divine power, then He could not be tempted in all points like man, for it [would] be He was tempted as a God rather than as a man." { 5LtMs, Ms 29, 1887, par. 25 } "We need not place the obedience of Christ by itself as something for which he was particularly adapted, because of his divine nature; for he stood before God as man's representative, and was tempted as man's substitute and surety. If Christ had a special power which it is not the privilege of a man to have, Satan would have made capital of this matter. But the work of Christ was to take from Satan his control of man, and he could do this only in a straightforward way. He came as a man, to be tempted as a man, rendering the obedience of a man. Christ rendered obedience to God, and overcame as humanity overcome. We are led to make wrong conclusions because of erroneous views of the nature of our Lord. To attribute to his nature a power that it is not possible for man to have in his conflicts with Satan, is to destroy the completeness of his humanity. The obedience of Christ to his Father was the same obedience that is required of man. Man cannot overcome Satan's temptations except as divine power works through humanity. The Lord Jesus came to our world, not to reveal what God in his own divine person could do, but what he could do through humanity. Through faith man is to be a partaker of the divine nature, and to overcome every temptation wherewith he is beset. It was the Majesty of heaven who became a man, who humbled himself to our human nature; it was he who was tempted in the wilderness and who endured the contradiction of sinners against himself." { ST April 10, 1893, par. 3 } "When we are tempted to question whether Christ resisted temptation as a man, we must search the Scriptures for the truth. As the substitute and surety of the human race, Christ was placed in the same position toward the Father as is the sinner. Christ had the privilege of depending on the Father for strength, and so have we. Because he laid hold of the hand of infinite power, and held it fast, he overcame; and we are taught to do the same. He met every temptation with, “It is written;” and so must we. The one who resists evil in his strength can say, in the words of Inspiration: “The Lord God will help me: therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? ... Behold, the Lord God will help me: who is he that shall condemn me?”" { YI December 28, 1899, par. 3 } "Satan declared that it was impossible for the sons and daughters of Adam to keep the law of God, and thus charged upon God a lack of wisdom and love. If they could not keep the law, then there was fault with the Lawgiver. Men who are under the control of Satan repeat these accusations against God, in asserting that men can not keep the law of God. Jesus humbled himself, clothing his divinity with humanity, in order that he might stand as the head and representative of the human family, and by both precept and example condemn sin in the flesh, and give the lie to Satan's charges. He was subjected to the fiercest temptations that human nature can know, yet he sinned not; for sin is the transgression of the law. By faith he laid hold upon divinity, even as humanity may lay hold upon infinite power through him. Altho tempted upon all points even as men are tempted, he sinned not. He did not surrender his allegiance to God, as did Adam." {ST January 16, 1896, par. 2}
LGT contains a contradiction, on one hand the Law does not give eternal life, on the other LGT requires 100% obedience to the Law. Conclusion is that LGT is not a Protestant Biblical teaching.
Ephesians 2:8-10 "For by GRACE you have been SAVED through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast. 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus FOR GOOD WORKS, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." We are not saved by Good Works but we are Saved FOR Good Works.
@@dorinpopescu2004 i agree that God requires 100% obedience, that does not mean that God expects from us 100% sinless life, there would be no need for the Savior Jesus if God expected us to live 100% sinless life. Introduction to Jesus is in Genesis 2:18 where it is stated "And the LORD God said, It is not good that Mankind should be alone; I will make the Helper." Hebrew word "eyzer"H5828, translated as helper is never applied to any human in the Bible, only to God, as in "God is my Helper".

The Great Controversy Theme is the driving force for Last Generation Theology. Beautiful theme, wonderful theology. Mark 4:26-29.
What a glorious message!! And even more incredible, is EXPERIENCING the power of God in our own lives, as He sets us free from sin that once enslaved us!
Privileged to be the first to comment.
I really enjoyed this. God is great. Heaven is going to be nice and enjoyable. Blessings brothers
Fallen humanity indwelt by the Father and His Son will be victorious. (John 17:20-23)
Amen! Thanks, Pastors!

This was a fantastic panel discussion. Let it be so Lord 💜

Kindly share the book on your website pastor Priebe
thanks pr Dojcin to clarify righteousness by faith, the conversation among the forum was becoming too legalistic.
