The Most Urgent Truth of All
Explore the truth, or lack thereof, behind the "rapture theory" that has swept the nation. Discover how Left Behind has left behind the most urgent truth of all.
01/27/2001
The Greatest Truth of All
In an astounding twist, the greatest time prophecy in all the Bible has been sadly disassembled and reformed into a strange amalgamation that has swept through the Christian world. Revisit another shining truth that Left Behind left behind.
02/03/2001
The Most Clarifying Truth of All
Dispensationalism promotes a belief in a literal fulfillment of literal Israel in end time prophecy. Discovering the conditional nature of God's prophecies protects us from this deception. How are the prophecies about Israel to be understood in the New Testament era?
02/17/2001
The Most Dangerous Truth of All
Is the Anti-Christ some tyrant/dictator as the Left Behind series portrays? Or is it a religious-political institution that is alive and well right now and gaining in its power to rule the world? Examine the evidence.

Offering for May 9, 2026

Disaster and Famine Relief (GC and NAD)

Imagine being trapped on the second story of your home, with rising floodwaters at your chin, after being told that no rescue boats were in your area. That was the terrifying reality for a couple in Tennessee after a devastating hurricane. They were saying their goodbyes to each other, believing their time had come, when an unexpected rescue boat called out to them, offering them a lifeline! Later, this couple arrived at an Adventist Disaster Response distribution site seeking emergency supplies.

They shared their story with volunteers, expressing their gratitude and calling the help they received a miracle. Along with the food and supplies, ACS volunteers prayed with them and encouraged them on their journey of faith.

When crisis strikes, Adventist Disaster Response teams serve communities across the United States—providing practical aid and spiritual care after hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, floods, and even mass shootings. In moments of devastation, our volunteers stand beside survivors, reminding them they are not alone.

Psalm 34:18 reminds us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (NIV). When disaster strikes, we have the opportunity to reflect God's love by standing with those who are hurting. Let your neighbors know they are not alone in their time of need. Give today through your local church offering or at www.communityservices.org and bring relief, comfort, and Christ's love to your neighbors. Stand by your neighbors today through your gift. Your offering makes a difference. Together, we can be the hands and feet of Jesus.
