The Saints
Becoming a saint does not require going through an arduous process contrived by the minds of men. On the contrary, saints are those who have a close relationship with God and prove it by honoring Him through obedience. God will reward His saints in the age to come by giving them positions of leadership in the kingdom.

If we are baptized children of God with his holy spirit in us, we know that we need Him for everything in our lives. But what about our relationship with our brethren? This offertory is about our responsibility to be there for one another and to help each other. And it also handles our responsibility towards God.

The Rule of Melchizedek
Who was Melchizedek who met Abram and blessed him and whom Abram gave the tithe of all? The identity of Melchizedek is a great mystery to most. But the Bible is actually very clear who He was—and is. Also, some passages which might be confusing at first sight can be easily explained when we consider the context, the entire picture and biblical phraseology. This message will also show why Melchizedek’s rule was a forerunner of Christ’s rule here on earth after His Second Coming.
Jesus Christ is Our Atonement
Events on the Day of Atonement foreshadow future occurrences while commemorating things already done. The atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ is the great lesson of this Holy Day, and true Christians observe this time just as God has commanded!
All In
Answering the call to become a Christian involves unwavering commitment. Going “all in” is an expression that indicates the complete dedication which is necessary to fully invest ourselves in following God. When we prepare our offerings, they should reflect the same level of commitment we are willing to make to obey God.
