Subjects Addressed: (1) “Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.” Rev. 22:14
(2) By disobeying God Adam and Eve were barred from the Tree of Life and were removed from Eden. By obeying God’s Ten Commandments and the principles therein, we may regain what Adam and Eve lost. (1:35)
(3) Sorcerers (pharmacists, druggists, and magicians) will be without God’s kingdom. “Our institutions are established that the sick may be treated by hygienic methods, discarding almost entirely the use of drugs. . . . There is a terrible account to be rendered to God by men who have so little regard for human life as to treat the body so ruthlessly in dealing out their drugs. . . . We are not excusable if through ignorance we destroy God's building by taking into our stomachs poisonous drugs under a variety of names we do not understand. It is our duty to refuse all such prescriptions.” {2SM 283.4} (12:12)
(4) Whoremongers, those who practice the sins of the LGBT community and refuse to repent, will be without God’s kingdom. (21:33)
(5) There’s a connection between sorcerers and whoremongers: Research shows that marijuana, along with other recreational drugs, go hand in hand with the sinful lifestyle of the LGBT community. (25:25)
(6) Presently, a large number of Seventh-day Adventist leaders are persuading the members of their churches to support and accept the people who are practicing the sins of the LGBT community; and that the SDA members should allow the LGBT people to become and remain members and even hold leadership positions in the churches. By this, these SDA churches are accepting and developing sorcerers and whoremongers. In other words, there is going to be an epidemic of people using recreational drugs within the Seventh-day Adventist churches, openly and privately. This is a sign of the last days. In such a deplorable condition, these supporters of sorcery and whoremongering cannot receive the latter rain. See Jeremiah 3:3. They will not receive the seal of God, the Father’s name in their foreheads (Revelation 14:1), but they will receive the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:15-17). (34:04)
(7) “Christians, Muslims, Jews Compete at Israel's 1st Transgender Pageant” Friday's competition in Tel Aviv is the country's first of its kind — and brings together Jews, Christians and Muslims in a region known more for its deep divisions. (40:50)
(8) Murderers, Idolaters, and all Liars will be without God’s kingdom. (42:43)
(9) Those who do God’s commandments, Jesus promises them the right to life, or the right to eternal life. Those are similar words to the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” Jesus is saying to us that when the civil and religious powers unite to persecute and to restrict our rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, He will restore unto us those three. (46:54)
(10) “Do No Harm Act” will restrict religious liberty. (53:25)
(11) “America’s Global Campaign for Gay Rights” is one sure step to fulfill the following: “As America, the land of religious liberty, shall unite with the papacy in forcing the conscience and compelling men to honor the false sabbath, the people of every country on the globe will be led to follow her example. Foreign nations will follow the example of the United States. Though she leads out, yet the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.” {Mar 214.4} (55:05)
(12) Tonga government bans businesses opening on Sunday due to “Sunday being the Sabbath.” (1:00:44)
