“Lost Innocence,” the sermonette present last Sabbath by Kalon Mitchell, is now posted. Here is a summary:

We live in a world filled with sin.  There is no way to avoid it.  Have we lost our innocence in regards to sin?  Are we warped by it?  Have we come to just “accept”  sin as a normality?  What about our children?  Do we do everything we can to guard their precious innocence?

“Coming and Going,” the sermon present last Sabbath by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

When Gods asks us to come to Him, what does He expect of us? Not everyone who wants to come is truly called by Him. Others don’t come, even though they could have come;  and then there are those who go or depart, even though they did not have to fall away. Why do they forsake God, and what will happen to them, if they do not come back?

“Ist heute der Tag des Heils?” is the title of this Sabbath’s German sermon. Title in English: “Is Now the Day of Salvation?”

“Worldwide Anti-Semitism on the Rise,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Even though anti-Semitism has been a terrible phenomenon for many centuries, it is clearly on the rise in the USA and around the world. President Trump righty condemned this horrible phenomenon. Middle Eastern nations are not Israel’s friends, and neither are the Europeans. What will happen if Israel insists on a one-state solution; on Jerusalem as Israel’s eternal capital; and on further Jewish settlements in “occupied” territories? Will a Third Temple be built in Jerusalem prior to Christ’s return? What would be the reaction of the world, and especially the Europeans? Our new free booklet, “The Fall and Rise of the Jewish People,” will give you the answers to these and many more questions. A special video at the end of this program provides you with more important information.

“The Little Things,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Eric Rank, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Common sense might bring one to conclude that if we are called to fulfill God’s great plan, our human achievements and abilities must also be great and powerful. However, just the opposite is true. Throughout the Bible, God accomplishes great things by means of the small and seemingly insignificant. Little things in the right context work together to produce faith in us, glorify God, and fulfill His awesome plan.

“Germany to Fill the Military Void?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

We have told you for decades that the relationship between the USA and Europe under German leadership will become more and more fragile, and that a united Europe will step into the breach when the USA draws back, declines and collapses. Recent events and biblical prophecy prove the accuracy of our assertions. Are you AWARE as to what is happening before your very eyes?

“The Long Game,” the sermonette presented last Sabbath by Eric Rank, is now posted. Here is a summary:

To be a Christian involves having a special vision that seems foolish when measured by worldly standards. Whereas the goals that are set by worldly measures seek a short-term outcome with a temporary duration, the goals of a Christian are long-term and eternal. The actions we take today must be directed towards the ultimate long-term outcome that God plans for each of us.

“Empowering Our Relationship with God,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Robb Harris, is now posted. Here is a summary:

“Prophetic Developments in the USA and Europe,” a special report presented last Sabbath during the sermonette time by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

What are the facts behind President Trump’s executive immigration order regarding a “travel ban,” and its worldwide condemnation? Why did a federal court temporarily block the ban? Why do we in God’s Church report about these events? Do they have prophetic significance? And are some, if not many members still too much involved in this political world?

Our emotions and desires dwell within our hearts.  What does it mean when we put our hearts into something? How do we establish our hearts and for what reason?

“The World Condemns Trump—Why?,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

America is in turmoil. In less than two weeks, President Donald Trump, due to controversial executive orders, has turned the world upside down. This program discusses in detail his order and its practical application pertaining to refugees, immigrants and non-immigrants from designated countries, which has been described by some as a Muslim travel ban. Great uncertainties developed regarding green card holders and persons with dual citizenship, as well as persons with non-immigrant visas.  Major American tech firms oppose the order, as do many Jews and virtually all countries around the world. Federal Courts have issued temporary restraining orders pertaining to most of the new rules, but will they be followed? Especially the European reaction has been very forceful, which is telling in the light of biblical prophecy.

“The Weightier Matters,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Kalon Mitchell, is now posted. Here is a summary:

In a world that is ripe with self-importance, self-justification and disregard for God,  what is our charter?  What is it that God really expects from us as true Christians and eventually from the entire world?  What truly matters in God’s view?

The Church Conference for 2017 will be conducted in Escondido, California, with arrivals on March 23 and ending on March 28.

“At the Brink of Armageddon?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Are we really that close to the annihilation of mankind, as many suppose? What are the reasons for the update of the Doomsday Clock which now stands at two and a half minutes to midnight, where midnight represents the end of humanity? Why is it felt that Donald Trump made this world a much more dangerous place, and whom is he viewing as America’s greatest adversaries? Could failed nuclear tests and computer glitches play a significant role in a nuclear exchange? The Bible predicts Armageddon; but how exactly will it happen?

A German AufPostenStehen program was also produced, covering the same subject. It is titled: “Steht der Weltuntergang bevor?”

“Trump Declares War on Europe,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Through explosive interviews with European papers, Donald Trump caused furious, angry and concerned reactions from European politicians and the media. While his statements regarding NATO, Brexit, the migrant crisis, tariffs on foreign cars and other areas were not new, the realization that he meant what he said has prompted unprecedented European declarations of intent, which, when implemented, will lead to devastating results for the entire world.

“Trump Erklärt Europa den Krieg,” s the AufPostenStehen German language version of the program described above.

“Why the Hatred for Israel and God’s Law?,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Included in this presentation is a special video clip presented by Michael Link highlighting our newest booklet, “God’s Law or God’s Grace?” Here is a summary of the StandingWatch program:

On January 4, 2017, The Washington Post wrote about reasons for the world’s hatred of the state of Israel and the Jews; and one of these reasons explains why especially “traditional” Christianity teaches that Christ came to do away with the Law of God and to replace it with “grace.” If YOU believe in this deceptive concept, it may lead to YOUR physical death in the near future, and ultimately, to your eternal death. Our free booklet, “God’s Law… or God’s Grace?” shows you the TRUTH from the BIBLE which you MUST know in order to survive the terrible times ahead of us.

“2017–A Dangerous Year,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

2016 ended as it began–with uncertainty, fear, violence and tremendous upheaval. It appears that 2017 will be worse. Are the dark days of the 1930’s upon us, as Prince Charles warns? Are “things falling apart” and is “mere anarchy loosed upon the world,” indicating the Second Coming of Christ, as the Catholic Church in England suspects? Has the world “turned upside down,” as Angela Merkel stated? A grim picture emerges, when we contemplate worldwide terrorism, global Islamist extremism and ISIS, Donald Trump’s USA, the UK’s Brexit, coming elections in France, The Netherlands and Germany, as well as events in Syria, Iraq, Israel, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Libya, Afghanistan, Putin’s Russia, China, North Korea, Japan and the Philippines. Are we really that close to the Great Tribulation and the annihilation of mankind?

Many consider the Bible as just another book of religious teachings. The idea that it is or possibly could be the inspired words of God is either rejected or only half-heartedly accepted by most people. There are others who view the Bible for what it is—the TRUTH OF GOD!

The Church Conference for 2017 will be conducted in Escondido, California, with arrivals on March 23 and ending on March 28.

“Israel Betrayed by USA and Forsaken by the World,” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

“Obama Backstabs Israel.” With this headline, the Drudge Report introduced the Obama Administration’s decision to abstain from, rather than veto a resolution by the UN Security Council, condemning Israeli settlements. Israel, as well as US Democrats and Republicans, are outraged and are speaking of dire consequences. Most countries, including Germany, support the anti-Israel resolution. Why are these developments highly explosive in the light of biblical prophecy?

“Israel von Obama verraten und von der Welt verlassen,”  is the title of a new AufPostenStehen program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link, which covers the same subject as the StandingWatch program described above.

Is the usual presentation of Christ’s birth in accordance with the biblical account? When was Jesus born—in what year and in what month? What about the year Zero? When did Herod the Great die? When was Cyrenius governor of Syria? Was Christ born in a stable? What was the inn in which Mary and Joseph found no place? Were Mary and Joseph poor? Were animals present when Jesus was born? Did angels sing? Did the wise men from the east and the shepherds visit Christ during the night of His birth? Who were those wise men? How many were they? Where do the customs come from which one thinks of and engages in during the Christmas season?
