The Adventist Way of Life

Note: This article is being re circulated since the last shooting. What an important issue this is. All Christians should pray for guidance on how they might help.

Todays headlines are very troubling. Another American youth decides to shoot people down for no apparent reason. This has become old news. Seems that everywhere America's youth are troubled to the point of no return.

Christian author, Ellen White has pointed out; "Aliens from God and outcasts from society, these poor souls feel that they are without hope either for this life or for the life to come. The hearts of parents are broken. Men speak of these erring ones as hopeless, but God looks upon them with pitying tenderness. He understands all the circumstances that have led them to fall under temptation. This is a class that demands labor." T6, p.254,255

When we see what is on our modern Televisions we see; "Babylon 5" and "American Idol". We have taught our youth to embrace the idea of Babylonian Oneness, a false unity. We have set our youth to look to "idols". Instead of finding out that they are already special, we teach our youth to embrace an idol, a human idol. How sad.

We have taught our youth to turn away from their Creator by teaching evolution.

"Men in their blindness boast of wonderful progress and enlightenment; but to the eye of Omniscience are revealed the inward guilt and depravity." Ellen G. White T6,p.14,15

One problem is that todays youth are taught that "true" love has no boundaries. This anarchy love is from the occult law; "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law". This false idea is a Babylonian foundation. It is taught in the Wica movement and New Age philosophies of today.

This so called "freedom" has created an insane youth. Actually, true love has boundaries, it is surrounded by the Commandments of God!

"It is not hardship, toil, or poverty that degrades humanity; it is sin, the transgression of God's law. The efforts put forth to rescue the outcast and degraded will be of no avail unless the claims of the law of God and need of loyalty to Him are impressed on the mind and heart." T6,p.259 Ellen G. White

We must understand that people are crying out for a love with boundaries! They may not say it because of what they have been taught. The truth is, it is time for the church to teach the law of God to our youth in the true love of Jesus Christ!

"The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul.......The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes." "By the word of Thy lips," says the Psalmist, "I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer. " Psalms 19:7,8; 17:4

So true love has around it a "wall of protection", the Commandments of God. False love, the one destroying this nation, is that of anarchy!

May God call those who hear to labor in this work of re-education.
