Yes, why—given that the Feast of Trumpets encompasses not only joyful events but also terrible ones? This sermon explores the many reasons why ALL the events symbolized by the Feast of Trumpets are a cause for rejoicing for us… and what our responsibility is—as watchmen appointed by God—to proclaim to others the good news like the blast of a trumpet, even when most people do not want to hear it.

Following Trump’s scandal pertaining to the Venezuela oil deal (note our StandingWatch program, titled, “Trump’s Oil Deal with Venezuela—Another Fiasco”), another scandal is developing pertaining to Trump’s new “beef deal.” We also report on the futile idea that all-high gas prices will go down any time soon; speak on Hegseth’s unprecedented lie detector tests which badly backfired on him; and we address Trump’s unsuccessful attempts to end the Russia-Ukraine war while threatening Europe with reimbursement payments for supporting Ukraine. Note our StandingWatch program, titled, “Trump and Putin vs EU and Ukraine?”
We also address Trump’s denial of the depleted stockpiles of American weapons while speaking out of both sides of his mouth (note our StandingWatch program, titled, “USA Dangerously Short on Essential Missiles”).
The conflict between the USA and Canada is boiling over (note our StandingWatch program, titled, “America’s Foolish Trade War With Canada”); and Trump has been described by a prestigious German paper as the destructive “demolition man.”
We are addressing the situation in Germany, pertaining to the new role of the “comeback kid” Jens Spahn (note our StandingWatch program, titled, “The Downfall of Germany’s Most Powerful Politician”) and the not unexpected tremendous success of the AfD in the Saxony election; and we address European discussions to withdraw their gold reserves from the unreliable USA.
We address the most recent developments pertaining to Israel; point out the British Army’s monetary shortfalls; contradictory comments by Pope Leo; and AI’s activities which can only be described as Satanic.

“How AI Could Destroy Us All” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link.
Here is the summary:
Most are not aware of the incredible demonic influence and catastrophic abilities which AI already possesses. This program goes into many details and will shock you. We are dealing with a power beyond human control… which could wipe all of us out.
“Wie KI uns alle vernichten könnte” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. This German program covers the same topics as described above.

Daniel Blasinger’s sermonette has been posted, titled, “Blameless.”
Here is a summary:
When Michelangelo sculpted David, he could already see the finished masterpiece in his mind’s eye, even though he still had only a rough block of marble before him. And in exactly the same way, God already sees us today in the perfection we will attain if we remain faithful to His path until the end. He sees us just as a loving father sees his children, and we can and must make His perspective our own.
Norbert Link’s sermon has been posted, titled, “Waiting for God.”
Here is a summary:
Sometimes it may seem as though God does not hear our prayers or is unwilling to answer them. This is especially true in cases where people have been ill or facing other problems for a long time, yet—despite initial prayers—no healing or change has occurred. Some people slowly but surely resign themselves to their condition and circumstances; they come to believe that this is their fate and that God simply will not heal them or alter their situation in this day and age. This dangerous misconception can deprive us of God’s blessings.

We begin with Iceland’s rejection of the EU; America’s failed negotiations with Canada and Trump’s subsequent outlandish actions which are bound to backfire on his administration, the Republicans and the American people; and we continue with his threat pertaining to the Falkland Islands and his naïve and unbelievable Chamberlain-like comments about Putin.
We discuss his controversial and highly overrated Venezuela oil deal; his renewed attack on Iran and Hegseth’s troubles. We also address absolutely silly and pointless California law proposals and California Governor Newsom’s highly suspect conduct.
We speak on German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s life in a dreamhouse (not unlike Trump); and interesting developments regarding the far-right German party AfD; and we conclude with China’s armies of robots.

“Trump’s Oil Deal with Venezuela—Another Fiasco” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is the summary:
Trump called it the biggest oil deal in world history which will lower gas prices for Americans. But will it.. ever? Why is the deal drawing criticism from all sides of the national and international political spectrum; and what was and is the White House anxious to conceal in regard to the deal?
“Trumps Öl-Abkommen mit Venezuela – ein weiteres Fiasko” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. This German program covers the same topics as described above.
Daniel Blasinger’s first split sermon has been posted, titled, “Laodicea 2.0.”
Here is a summary:
Christ’s message to the seven churches is of timeless significance. It is particularly important to recognize that the church at Laodicea mirrors the final era of the church—the era in which Christ will return and in which we live today. From this, we can see where we need to examine ourselves. For it is up to us to ensure that Christ does not have to knock at our door to gain entry.
Eric Rank’s second split sermon has been posted, titled “Foundation of Values.”
Here is a summary:
God created everyone with a unique spirit and personality. This means that everyone has their own personal system of values according to their own individual character. What matters to one person may be trivial to another. From the foundation of values, we all make decisions and choose what to do in our lives, which bears fruit that reflects our character. Therefore, it is important for us to carefully inspect our own values to ensure that they express a love for the Truth of God.

We begin with frightening developments and occurrences in Germany, especially regarding AfD’s convoluted plans and Germany’s most dangerous school; and we continue with Putin’s sinister scheme against NATO. Please view in this regard our StandingWatch program, titled, “Will Putin Attack NATO?” We also speak on Ukraine’s attacks on Russia with alleged British weapons and support and Russia’s response in pulling its ambassador out of Britain.
We address National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir’s terrible demands; the position of Israel pertaining to a Palestinian state; and Israel’s volatile and deteriorating relationship with Turkey.
Focusing on the United States, we address America’s unprecedented horrendous national debt; Trump’s attempt to court North Korea about which South Korea is extremity unhappy; the US Pentagon’s firing of the Stars and Stripes Editor in Chief; the beginning of a new trade war between Canada and the USA; the Supreme Court’s controversial decision to give green light for Trump’s ballroom; and a thought-provoking article about the downfall of the United States.
We conclude with another example of Catholic idolatry and blasphemy.

“America’s Foolish Trade War With Canada” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is the summary:
America has begun a trade war with Canada which America might lose, as it has lost almost all wars or controversies in recent times. Trump’s threats pertaining to Canada—and also to other countries—should not be ignored. And while old allies turn away from America and look for new alliances, America is becoming more and more isolated.
“Amerikas törichter Handelskrieg mit Kanada” is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Norbert Link. This German program covers the same topics as described above.

We are pleased to announce the wedding of Steven Hammond and Natalia Lis, which was conducted in Spain by Pastor Michael Link on Sunday, August 23, 2026. Congratulations.
The Rank family hosted a memorial service for David Harris on August 16, 2026. It was attended by friends and family. We appreciate all of the support and prayers during the last few months.
Paul Niehoff’s first split sermon has been posted, titled, “Fruit of the Spirit: Peace.”
Here is a summary:
Peace is a subject mentioned over two hundred times in the Bible. God’s Son is even named the “Prince of Peace” in Isaiah 9:6. God gives us instructions on how to achieve peace, and the practices we should avoid that will prevent us from achieving peace.
Norbert Link’s second split sermon has been posted, titled, “Christ In Us—What Does This Mean?”
Here is a summary:
How, and from what point in time, can Christ live within us? And what does this mean in practical terms? How can we examine ourselves to see if Christ is truly in us? This split sermon explores clear biblical statements that reveal whether Christ lives within us—or not. It also shows that one does not and cannot walk God’s Way unless Christ lives and works within that person.
Robert Macher’s German sermonette from last Sabbath has been posted. It is titled, “Der Weg zurück in die Gemeinde“ (“The Way Back to the Church”).
