January 29, 2000. Our first week has gone by very fast, and I’m sure it will go increasingly faster. I have learned a lot already, and am so thankful that the Lord has allowed me to come. Right now, I am sitting in my first Sabbath service at Jerusalem Assembly. Here are some of my sermon notes….

We are learning about Zechariah 13:2-6. A day is coming when the Lord will return, and He will remove all of those distractions vying for our attention. What a day that will be! Jesus Christ will fill the “whole screen” of the world’s view. False prophecy, something that is now common and acceptable, will someday be a disgrace to both God and man. Today, there is a market – an inflation – of false prophets because there is a demand for them. But someday, there will be no demand!

How do you measure repentance? When the Lord is worth more than anything – even family. If God is really my Lord, then I must treat His word with holiness. He is not simply the “neighbor upstairs.” This description reveals only ignorance. God purchased our lives with His blood, and now we are His property!
