Lesson of Matthew 18 on Justification by Faith

"That justification by faith, or the pardon we receive while on probation, is a conditional pardon, is proved by our Savior’s words in Matthew 18:23-35. 

Here is presented the case of a servant who owed his lord ten

thousand talents; but having nothing to pay, and manifesting honesty of intention, 

Matthew 18:27 The lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. 

But this servant met his fellow-servant, who owed him the trifling sum of two hundred pence; and who pleaded for mercy in the same terms in which the first had so successfully pleaded be fore his lord. But this servant would not show mercy; he thrust his fellow-servant into prison till he should pay the debt. Hearing of this, his lord called him, and said unto him, 

32-34 O you wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you desired me: Should not you also have had compassion on your fellow-servant, even as I had pity on you? And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.  

This we say is the Bible view of forgiveness in the gospel, or justification by faith, while we are waiting for the decisions of the Judgment."

IN the NEWS - Poll on the "Trinity"

QUESTION: ...when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? LUKE 18:8

"An overwhelming majority of Christians reject the basic Christian teaching of the Trinity, prompting new concerns that Americans are living without the influence of “the truths and life principles of God.”
The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University released the latest installment of its American Worldview Inventory series which documents Americans’ views on the Trinity. The research is based on responses collected from 2,100 adults in

January.
Overall, just 40% of respondents believe that God exists and affects people’s lives. That figure rises to 53% among self-identified Christians, 60% among theologically-identified born-again Christians, and 100% among Integrated Disciples. The latter term refers to those who have a biblical worldview. While a majority of those surveyed (59%) believe in the existence of Jesus Christ, a significantly smaller share of adults (29%) believe in the Holy Spirit.
Slightly more than 1 in 10 respondents (11%) believe in the Trinity, that the God of the Bible is “three distinct but inseparable and equal persons in one infinite Being.” The persons in the Trinity are God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
Belief in the Trinity, characterized by the Cultural Research Center as a “fundamental tenet of Christianity,” increases to 16% among self-identified Christians, 24% among theologically-identified born-again Christians and 62% among Integrated Disciples.
“These results are further evidence of the limited or lack of trust Americans have in the Bible, the limitations we place on the authority and influence of God, and our refusal to cooperate with God by living in harmony with His ways and purposes,” said CRC Director of Research George Barna in response to the survey results. “Even the statistics for the groups that are most in-tune with biblical teachings, such as belief in the nature and impact of the Trinity, are shockingly low for a nation in which most people claim to be Christian.”

Creation Moment 4/2/2025 - Evidence Against Evolution SERIES: Mutations?

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:20 NSAB

"Mutations—random changes in the genetic information— are supposed to generate new information so that new features such as legs, feathers, brains, eyes, and so on, could ‘evolve’. 

However, random changes in information do not create new meaningful ‘paragraphs’, or ‘chapters’, of information. 

--They only corrupt it. 

--Mutations destroy; they do not create. 

They are known by the diseases they cause in humans (e.g. cancers).

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is not due to an increase in meaningful information due to mutations. In all mutations studied, there has been a loss of function causing the resistance—for example, loss of control over the production of the enzyme that breaks down penicillin so that much more of this enzyme is produced. Sometimes information has been acquired from another type of bacterium, which then enables the recipient to resist the antibiotic. Mutations will never produce the new complex information needed for evolution to proceed.

Furthermore, research has revealed many examples of features in

living things that are made up of highly complex parts where every part has to be present for it to function at all. They cannot be simpler and still function.

It is not possible for small step-wise mutations and natural selection to create such systems because a series of functional intermediates is impossible. 

Examples are the bacterial flagellum, the blood clotting system, the ATPase ‘motor’, the signaling system in cells, the DNA–coded protein synthesis system, etc."

The Atonement and the Stability of God's Government

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear [Respect] God, and keep His commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. Ecclesiastes 12:13

"An Atonement must not only unite justice and mercy, and reconcile

the transgressor to the law, but the perpetuity and stability of the Government should be the first consideration, as they are first in importance in our relations and duties, because on them the perpetuity of all private relations and rights depends."

SDA Issues: GospelTruth.ai?

Q: Should pastors base, and have AI write, sermons from an app?
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 

2 Timothy 2:15

"In a recent episode of 3ABN Toda the Three Angels Broadcasting Network, Wintley Phipps introduced a new tool, GospelTruth.ai, designed to assist Christians in their study of the Bible and sermon preparation. 

This artificial intelligence application is specifically trained to provide Biblically accurate responses and generate complete sermons, distinguishing it from mainstream AI models such as ChatGPT, which, as Phipps noted, often reflect a mix of secular and religious perspectives.
Phipps expressed concerns about conventional AI models, which he likened to the “tree of knowledge of good and evil.” He pointed out that these models pull information from both secular and religious sources, leading to responses that may not always align with Biblical teachings. 

When discussing theological topics such as the Sabbath, he found that mainstream AI often presented conflicting or nonbiblical viewpoints, requiring extensive back-and-forth to align the response with Scripture.
To address this challenge, Phipps and his team developed GospelTruth.
GospelTruth employs a proprietary linguistic search algorithm that deeply mines Scripture and related texts, producing fresh, in-depth perspectives each time a user requests information."

Creation Moment 4/1/2025 - Evidence Against Evolution SERIES: Limits to variation

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:20 NSAB

"The breeding of animals and plants shows that there are strict limits to how far selection can go—whether it be artificial or natural.

 Breeding of pigs will never make them fly! 

Nor can natural selection grow feathers on a reptile! 

Things were created to reproduce true-to-their-kind, just like the Bible says in Genesis chapter 1. 

The limited amount of natural variation drives modern molecular

biologists to try to take genes from one kind of organism and get them to work in another kind. It’s all about transferring information, and much intelligence is applied to do this (with many failures!). Natural (non-intelligent) processes cannot, and therefore have never, created anything containing meaningful information."

"Before and after you read the Scripture, pray earnestly that the Spirit who wrote it

--keep you from unbelief and error, 

--and lead you into the truth."

2 Timothy 3:16

Relating to God's Government

For God shall bring every work into judgment, 

with every secret thing, 

whether it be good, 

or whether it be evil.

Ecclesiastes 12:14

"Our relation to the Government and our relation to the means of our restoration, should be considered with great careful ness and candor.

1. Treason is the highest crime

He who commits murder takes a life, but he who seeks to subvert the law, seeks the destruction of life’s safeguard, of that which is to protect life by preventing and punishing crime. 

Hence, it is the aggregation of all crimes. 

2. The Government has the sole right to free therefrom

By this is meant that the Government has the sole right to dictate the terms or conditions by which rebels may be restored to citizenship. This is true, also, in regard to all crimes for which pardon is desired. And this right, Government ought to exercise. No criminal has any right to dictate the terms of his own pardon, or the means by which he may be restored to the favor of the Government. 

3. He who will not accept the conditions is a traitor still

If the Government has the sole right to dictate terms to rebels, which all must allow, then the transgressor can only change his relation to the Government by accepting those terms; and if he refuses to accept them, he, of course, persists in maintaining his position in rebellion.

Therefore two things must be required of a transgressor or rebel, which only can be accepted, to wit: 

(1) UNQUALIFIED SUBMISSION TO THE LAWS WHICH HAVE BEEN TRANSGRESSED, and, 

(2) A HEARTY ACCEPTANCE OF THE PLAN OR CONDITIONS OFFERED FOR HIS RESTORATION."

Creation Moment 3/31/2025 - Evidence Against Evolution SERIES: Information and complexity

For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 NSAB

"Modern knowledge of biochemistry (genes, DNA, proteins, etc.) shows that even so-called ‘simple’ bacteria are phenomenally complex—far more complex than the most sophisticated machine mankind has ever made—and they can reproduce themselves, some in less than 20 minutes! 

Such bacterial ‘machines’ contain the equivalent of a large book of coded information on their DNA. 

Books don’t write themselves 

and neither could the bacteria make themselves! 

If a book needs an intelligent creator, 

--the bacterium needs a creator even more so. 

The source of this information is an insurmountable problem for the origin of life without a creator—and the development of more complex life forms. 

A human being has about 1,000 books worth of information on the DNA in each cell. 

Q: How do you add 999 books of information to a bacterium to get the information in a human being, as evolutionists claim happened over hundreds of millions of years?"

The "Really" File - (Budweiser as a Church Prop?)

Q: Why are they drinking beer at all in the first place?

Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! Isaiah 5:11

"Pastor Ed Young Jr., the senior pastor of Fellowship Church, a 30,000-member multisite megachurch spread across Texas and Florida, has challenged his congregation to commit to abstaining from alcohol for 30 days in a quest to have a ‘Dry April’.

Bringing out a six-pack of Budweiser and pouring the contents of a beer into a mug, he taught through both sides of the issue while congregants sat transfixed, wondering whether or not he would take a swig from the stage.
Young ultimately concluded that while it would be a sin to get drunk or drink to excess, giving multiple reasons why it’s unwise and not a good idea, “the Bible does give us liberty—freedom—regarding consuming beverage alcohol.”

From the "Really" File

Young encouraged those who choose not to drink not to look down upon or judge those who do. In the same way, Young asked that those who drink do not make assumptions about those who abstain from alcohol.
“Rather than drinking every day, consuming alcohol is best on an occasional basis.”
Young closed the sermon with a prayer from the Quakers before challenging his congregation to embark on a Dry April to see if, for some of them, it wouldn’t change their life."

HEALTH NOTE - Link Between Weed and Schizophrenia

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest...be in health,.. 3 John 1:2

"Cannabis is one of the most widely used substances worldwide,

with an estimated 228 million users aged 15 to 64. Research shows that the risk of developing schizophrenia increases significantly with cannabis use, particularly when use begins at an early age. 

Around 10% of cannabis users are expected to develop cannabis use disorder at some point in their lives. 

Notably, nearly one-third of people with schizophrenia also meet the criteria for cannabis use disorder, and as many as 42% of individuals with schizophrenia are affected by it.
Schizophrenia is defined by the presence of different types of symptoms which include delusions, hallucinations, or disorganized speech. Disorganized speech refers to a pattern of speaking that is incoherent, illogical, or difficult to follow."

IN the NEWS - Confusing Bacteria for the blood of Christ

But avoid foolish questions,.... Titus 3:9

"A Roman Catholic Church in Indiana that sent communion wafers to a lab to be analyzed after red stains believed by some to be the blood of Christ miraculously appeared on them was disappointed to learn it was only bacteria.

Earlier this year, Roman Catholics at St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church in Morris, IN, were in awe after some of their communion wafers began to “bleed.”
Because Catholics believe the consecrated bread is the literal, actual physical body of Jesus, it was supposed that this might be a Eucharistic miracle, prompting the Archdiocese of Indianapolis to send out the wafers to a lab for a formal inspection.
The results were not so miraculous; however, after a biochemical analysis revealed only “fungus and three different species of bacteria, all of which are commonly found on human hands,” according to a statement from the Archdiocese earlier this week."

SDA HISTORY: Our Church Pioneers Reaction to the Quran

Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams, saith the LORD, and do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they shall not profit this people at all, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 23:32

"When persons compare the Koran with the Bible, and place Mohomet on an equality with Christ, we are constrained to think that they have never read the Koran (perhaps not the Bible), and have

never inquired into the principles of the divine Government, nor sought to find a way to save fallen humanity, and vindicate divine justice. 

We have read the Koran with this thought in mind, 

--desiring to find there these great principles and to give it credit for them if found; 

--but did not find them. 

And from our reading of it, we should full sooner place the story of “Jack the Giant Killer” on a level with the American Encyclopedia, than place the Koran on a level with the Bible."

When Sin Reigns

 "WHERE sin abounded, Romans 5:21 says that “sin has reigned.” And to reign is: 

• to hold and exercise sovereign power; 

• to exercise commanding influence; 

• to dominate; 

• to exercise control over; 

• control as by right or superior force; 

• to prevail irresistibly; exist widely or to the exclusion of something else. 

That is what the word of God says that sin does in men and with men

as they are of themselves. 

And until that fact is recognized, no man can be delivered from the power of sin. T he word used, and translated “reigned,” is a word that signifies and relates to governments and the reign of sovereigns."

Creation Moment 3/29/2025 - What's going on in the world of Academia & Darwinism?

Behold, they are all vanity;

 their works are nothing: 

Isaiah 41:29

"Richard Dawkins has released a new book, The Genetic Book of the Dead. The neo-Darwinists of Dawkins’ era and before believed in the existence of a single truth, and they sought to find it. 

*They were misled, not by their desire for truth but by their materialism. 

*Materialism forced them to believe the only source of truth was the matter of the universe, and if they studied it closely enough, it would reveal that truth. 

Most of their younger colleagues, with a few exceptions like evolutionary biologist Colin Wright, share neither their materialism nor their desire for truth. 

--Instead, the younger generation desires to serve the consensus. 

--And the humanities are driving consensus, not the sciences.

By undermining the predominant religion in the West, Dawkins and his fellow New Atheists opened the door for the various postmodern faiths, like critical theory, queer theory, and their various denominations. It also opened the door for Islam, something Dawkins has criticized strongly. But once the door is open, it is difficult to close."

The "Really" File - (CIA Psychic says....)

....because they have filled their land with practices from the East and with sorcerers, as the Philistines do.
They have made alliances with pagans. 

Isaiah 2:6 NLT

"A once-classified CIA document is reigniting one of history’s most enduring religious mysteries: the possible discovery of the Ark of the Covenant.
The file, dated December 5, 1988, comes from the CIA’s Cold War-era initiative known as “Project Sun Streak,” an experimental program that used “remote viewing”—a psychic practice aimed at visualizing distant or hidden objects. 

In one particular session, a government-trained remote viewer described an ornate, gold-covered chest hidden underground,

guarded by mysterious entities, and sealed away from the public.
“The target is protected by entities and can only be opened (now) by those who are authorized to do so,” the psychic wrote. “This container will not/cannot be opened until the time is deemed correct.”
The CIA document, once marked “secret,” has since been declassified and is available to the public via the agency’s Electronic Reading Room. It has quickly become a viral topic.
The psychic apparently sent his consciousness beyond his physical body, jotting down everything he observed in his search for the sacred artifact.
The psychic described traveling out-of-body to a location that felt Middle Eastern, with “language spoken by individuals [that] seemed to be Arabic,”.... They reported seeing mosque-like structures, individuals dressed in all white, and noted details such as “black hair and dark eyes” and “one figure…wore a moustache.”
The scene took a more haunting turn as the psychic described the sacred object’s location: “underground, dark and wet.” The purpose, they said, was “to bring a people together. It has something to do

From the "Really" File

with ceremony, memory, homage, the resurrection.”
“There is an aspect of spirituality, information, lessons and historical knowledge far beyond what we now know,” the psychic added.
The psychic goes on to say that when the time comes, the “mechanics of the lock system will be found to be fairly simple,” and warns that anyone who tries to open the container by prying or striking will be “destroyed by the container’s protectors through the use of a power unknown to us.”...the resurfacing of this file has reignited global curiosity."

All scripture is given by inspiration of God.... 2 Timothy 3:16

"Ultimately, the controversy about the age of the earth is a controversy about the authority of Scripture.
If Christians doubt what at first appears to be insignificant details of Scripture, then others may begin to look at the whole Bible differently, eventually doubting the central tenets of the Christian faith, namely the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Thus the historicity of Scripture is quite important."

As for that Statue of Jupiter

Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.

For this MAdAME DE STAEl, a profound critic and a devout Catholic makes the following excuse: We shame not in pagan trophies which art has hallowed.

Creation Moment 3/27/2025 - Only Response to Irreducible Complexity of Protein Formation

I lay my hand on my mouth. Job 40:4
This is the only rational response a person can make after they are presented with irreducible complexity.

"To get a protein we need DNA first. But, to even have DNA we need many different DNA repair systems.

Besides DNA repair, we also need a way to copy DNA. Without the faithful passing on of uncorrupted information from one generation to the next, life would be impossible. 

Dozens of proteins and RNAs are required to duplicate DNA. These include helicases that open the strands, topoisomerases that keep the strands from getting kinked, and single-strand binding proteins that help to hold the strands open. 

Meanwhile, two different DNA polymerases are used (one for each strand). On one strand, DNA copying is simple and direct. On the other strand, however, it is performed in short segments (Okazaki fragments) that must be joined with DNA ligase after DNA primase adds a short RNA primer to the strand. Confused yet? The point here is to show how many complex systems must already be in place before we can start making our desired protein.

The next step in our chain of spaghettification deals with cell signalling and the control of information flow. I don’t know how it knows what it needs, but let’s say the cell decides it needs more ATP synthase motors. The genes for the necessary proteins are buried somewhere in the genome, but the genome is a giant, four-dimensional ball of thin, sticky, fragile strings. Somewhere in that ball of string is our target gene. If it is not currently active, it might be tucked away and so must be found. It also might be deactivated and so must be turned on. The DNA must also be unwound at that specific location.

There are many different aspects of DNA storage within the cell. First, DNA is wrapped around histone proteins. These histones have a long tail that can be chemically modified. Thus, the cell can ‘tag’ DNA in different ways. The DNA itself can also be tagged. For example, by adding methyl groups to it, a strand of DNA is effectively turned off.

What I am describing is something called epigenetics. This is the information layer that is added to DNA and the associated histones that tells the cell which areas of the genome are active, etc. Guess what? Epigenetic processes require many additional proteins that must all be maintained in the DNA and that must all be manufactured. Without epigenetics, the cell can’t regulate the genome and so it will never be able to manufacture the desired protein, but epigenetics burns even more ATP.

Now that all those systems are in place, the cell is finally ready to start making the protein! First, the cell will make a copy of the protein-coding gene in a process called transcription. 

The copy will be in the form of RNA, not DNA. They use a slightly different sugar (ribose vs. deoxyribose). This makes RNA 100× less stable than DNA, which is really saying something! But the main difference between these two molecules is that RNA has uracil (U) instead of thymine (T). For transcription to occur, the DNA must be unwound and the histones must be removed. Similar to DNA replication, a flurry of accessory proteins are involved.
Not only does the creation of all these proteins use up a lot of ATP, but the ‘letters’ in DNA and RNA are also dependent on ATP. For example, ATP is adenosine triphosphate. This is also the source for the A (adenine) in DNA and RNA. The other letters (G, C, T, and U) are manufactured from CTP, GTP, TTP, and UTP, respectively. The biochemical pathways are complex, and each step in the manufacturing chain is driven by proteins (which require ATP to be produced, of course), but the creation of CTP, GTP, TTP, and UTP require the burning of even more ATP.

The intron-exon break points generally contain 12–19 short ‘motifs’ that tell the cell where to cut and how to join the exons together.
Exons can be alternately joined to create many different proteins from a single ‘gene’. This allows the cells to produce several hundred thousand unique proteins from less than 20,000 genes. Thus, our ATP synthase protein might be an alternative product, one protein among a family of similar proteins that are all coded by the same gene. This

splicing and dicing requires more proteins and burns up even more ATP, but now we have an RNA that can be used to manufacture our protein.

The manufacturing of a raw protein is nothing short of an engineering miracle. The cell starts with a complex machine called a ribosome. This is composed of multiple proteins and RNAs, each of which must be coded in the DNA, manufactured with ATP-dependent processes … you get the drill.

The mRNA is fed into the ribosome from one end. The mRNA will be translated into protein three letters at a time. Each set of three letters is called a ‘codon’. There are 64 possible codons and 21 amino acids, so some amino acids are ‘coded’ by more than one codon. Three of the codons are used as ‘stop’ signals, but one of them can also code for the amino acid selenocysteine.
A series of adaptor molecules called transfer RNAs (tRNA) enter the ribosome. At the base of each tRNA is a three-letter ‘anti-codon’ that matches a codon. At the top of each tRNA is an amino acid that is
removed from the tRNA and added to the growing protein strand. Each tRNA is ‘charged’ with its amino acid by a specific protein in the aminoacyl transferase family. There are elaborate mechanisms to make sure the right amino acid is charged, not the wrong one, even if chemically similar. Not only do these proteins require ATP in their manufacture, but the charging step and the protein elongation step

also burn ATP.

Most proteins, if left to themselves, will fold up into a useless knot of random coils. Thus, they need help folding. After the strand leaves the ribosome, helper proteins called chaperones clamp onto the unfolded strand. The protein is then escorted to, and inserted into, a huge multi-protein molecule called a chaperonin. We’re not exactly certain what happens inside, but the chaperonin will fold the protein into its near-finished state and spit it out the other end. More proteins. More activity. More ATP burned.

The final stage in the manufacturing process is delivery. Proteins must be actively transported to the site where they are needed. To do that, the cell uses a kinesin protein. There are many different kinesin types, but the main one we need to know about is a slender molecule with two legs. Those legs literally walk along a microtubule (made of proteins that require ATP in their manufacturing, transport, and assembly). Each step requires one ATP. The package to be delivered is stored on the top end of the kinesin and various signals and modifications to it effectively serve as a postal address."
