The Seventh Day Adventists Believe The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration. The inspired authors spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. In this Word, God has committed to humanity the knowledge necessary for salvation. The Holy Scriptures are the supreme, authoritative, and the infallible revelation of His will. They are the standard of character, the test of experience, the definitive revealer of doctrines, and the trustworthy record of God’s acts in history. (Ps. 119:105; Prov. 30:5, 6; Isa. 8:20; John 17:17; 1 Thess. 2:13; 2 […]

Is God the source of my pain and suffering?
Is God the source of my pain and suffering? This question has perplexed both believers and skeptics alike. I’ve struggled with this question recently. At the time I was thinking of writing this article, I was unwell, and all the pain, exhaustion, and discomfort that comes with being sick made me wonder why I was going through all these. Was it because of some sin I committed that has made God punish me with this sickness? Perhaps you’re also struggling with this question, you’re either hungry, sick, lost a loved one, discouraged, or guilty, to mention a few. And you’re […]
Confession | How to Confess Our Sins
Confession is the formal statement admitting that one is guilty of a crime.0 In the case of us sinners, we are guilty of whatever sin we’ve committed against God. He knows all the details of our sins but it is still important for us to confess our sins to Him.

(Hebrews 4:15) Jesus knows our life’s struggles, challenges, and temptations. […]
Sin | Why do we need Salvation?
Sin is the transgression of the law of God (1 John 3:4). The book of Isaiah 66:3 also gives us a broader understanding of what sin is. It says…”They have chosen their own ways, and they delight in their abominations;” Here we find that; We have chosen our own way instead of God’s way. God has given us His perfect law but we have chosen to go against that. We delight in our abomination: An abomination is something that God hates. This means that by sinning we delight or find pleasure in what God hates Verse 4 continues; – “….Because, when I […]

Our Identity in Christ
As we look at Christ as our perfect example we are to solely rely on His merits and guidance to go by each day. We can do all through the strength that He gives us. (Philippians 4:13). We are to avoid dwelling on past negative experiences, have a positive outlook on life, feel confident in ourselves, see our overall strengths and weaknesses, and accept them.
The LORD God our Father
…you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father “(Romans 8:15) I’ve seen my father cry twice. Both instances are relevant to this topic but I’ll just focus on one. I’m from a humble background and therefore my parents have sacrificed a lot to put food on the table, care for, protect and give us good education. This sacrifice, through the grace of God, and also the hard work of my youngest sister made her perform very well in her Kenya Certificate of Primary Education, KCPE, examinations. She became one of the top students in our home constituency, […]
