Offering

The third and final rumor from the east has a rich legacy in biblical history and prophecy. It's the scariest rumor of them all, but also the best, striking panic in the hearts of some, hope in the hearts of others.

Rumors From the East
Rumors from the East, the finale of the great cosmic war that plays out in every heart. The increasing intensification of the battle is reason enough to ally with Michael. Whenever He shows up in Scripture, guess who wins!

The Last Sonrise
The first rumor from the east heralds good news for earth's darkest hour. While the Sonrise it anticipates lies dead ahead, can we afford to wait for it?

The Last Sonrise Revisited
If you want to define God's glory, you must look into His face which He revealed in a Story. The glory of God is in the Story . . . and the story. It's the law of mirrors.
09/30/2006
Star Rising Over Islam
Does Islam, with its 1.4 billion adherents, have a place in Bible prophecy? Might God have used Mohammed and his Muslim followers to protect and advance the development of his kingdom? And could He possibly be doing so still today?
10/14/2006
East Winds
Clues for the second rumor from the east: winds, seal, forehead, name, time, U.S.A. Today. The perfect rumor for a rest-less society.
10/21/2006
East Gate
The second rumor engages the creation/evolution debate. Revelation predicts that there will be a generation that will refuse to take the hand of a skeleton and will take the hand of the Creator.

The Last Sonset
Coming: "A time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation" (Daniel 12:1). Very popular literal interpretations of Bible prophecy are setting up millions for an unexpected, satanic ambush. Which could have enormous implications for everything from setting national policy to making personal decisions.
11/11/2006
King of the North
The sinister "King of the North" (a metaphor Daniel uses to describe a succession of earth powers that oppress God's people) makes an all-out, final attack precipitated by rumors from the east. Not a study for the faint hearted, unless you want to know what's coming and how to be prepared.

Offering for March 8, 2025

Adventist World Radio

In 1 Corinthians 9:22 Paul says, “I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some” (NIV). As one of those possible means to save some, the Adventist church in North America is using television. There are millions of people who watch Adventist media programs every year.

If the Apostle Paul would have been alive in the 21st century, he would be sharing a Christ-centered message of hope and wholeness through technology and media. Jesus told the Apostle Peter, “Feed my sheep.” Peter would also be using the internet and social media to feed His lambs.

We are living in a time when people are watching more TV than reading books or pamphlets. The average person watches TV for around 2 hours and 51 minutes while reading for no more than 16 minutes and 48 seconds during the average day. Ellen White said this in 1914, “the circulation of the printed page has come to be a mighty factor in the dissemination of the truths of the third angel's message.” (Review & Herald. November 5, 1914). If she was alive today, Mrs. White would point to TV as the mighty factor in preaching the three angels’ message.

Your offering today will help Adventist Television Ministries continue to reach millions of people around the world and help spread the gospel to those who are searching and those who are lost. Help us fulfill the great commission.
