One person quipped, “Where is the everlasting gospel in the third angel’s message?” It is a very good question. The first angel’s message is the gospel going to every nation, tribe and language (Revelation 14:6). The second angel’s message says the city of Babylon—political, economic and religious entities—is fallen. Pointing out that Babylon had intoxicated and deceived the world, is good news. But what about the third angel? “And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, ‘If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he will also drink the wine of God’s wrath, poured full strength into the cup of his anger, and he will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the EDITOR’S NOTE: presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest, day or night, God’s cuppa: these worshippers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name’” (Revelation 14:9-11, ESV). The third angel’s God is depicted as an angry despot rejoicing over the pain of His enemies, message giving them a cuppa that has more power than a triple shot coffee or pure liquor. The truth of what happens to those who back the powerful beast–the Glenn Townend end time false religious entity introduced in Revelation 13—is revealed. But is South Pacific Division president this good news? What is God angry about? /SPDpresident God is angry about sin, suffering and evil and how they destroy people. Consistently in the Bible, God pours out His cup of wrath against sin (Job 21:20, Isaiah 42:34,35, 51:17-22, Jeremiah 25:15,16, 51:17, Ezekiel 20:8, Habakkuk 2:15-17). Revelation repeats this symbolism (Revelation 6:16, 16:19, 19:15). God symbolically gives all sinners a cuppa of His anger against DONATE NOW all the evil they inflict on others and themselves. This cuppa is so potent it ultimately destroys them. Revelation is primarily the “revelation of Jesus Christ” (Revelation 1:1). Where is Jesus and the good news in this final and complete punishment? Right in the centre of the book, readers are told how to have victory over the devil and his powers in Babylon, including the beast and its image. Victory comes by the blood of the Lamb—His sacrificial death (Revelation 12:11). When Jesus was on earth, He knew He was about to endure a Roman cru- $ ? cifixion. Jesus led His disciples to the Garden of Gethsemane where He prayed, Where is Jesus and “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I Your gi of ANY will, but as you will” (Matthew 26:39,42,44). This prayer time is intense; Jesus the good news prays the same prayer three times and Luke records that He sweated drops AMOUNT will help in this proposed of blood (Luke 22:42-44). Ellen White’s description highlights the enormity of share the Good the struggle and decision Jesus made there to save humanity (Desire of Ages, News. final and complete pp 686-694). But what was the “cup” He did not want to drink? There is no punishment?

At the very time they need to develop social skills, they’ve learned about social distancing and self-isolating. When churches were forced to close due to the pandemic, Sabbath school and church for many of our children became a non-existent or virtual experience. Some children lost the fellowship and learning opportunity of participating in person at a worship service. Offerings are one way children learn about a worship connection with God as the Creator and Provider. Children may serve as junior deacons which allows them to observe, learn and be part of returning tithes and offerings. Children see their parents and others at offering time as positive role models responding faithfully. Some parents encourage their children to put the family offering into the collec- tion. Now that offerings have become a virtual experience and potentially invisible to them, what do children lose as a learning experience? INSIGHT: For many children, COVID-19 has meant the loss of role models at offering time, and we are yet to see the long-term impact of that on their future giving. Including children in We need to make sure that COVID-19 does not rob our children of the chance to learn about giving and surrendering to God. Here are just a few ideas to teach the worship of giving children about giving during the pandemic and beyond: 1. Talk at home about tithes and offerings. Rodney Brady 2. Discuss with them your tithe and offerings, what you are doing and why. South Pacific Division CFO 3. Involve them in your family giving. Children love technology so let them interact with your electronic giving. 4. If your church provides a collection box for cash offerings or tithe envelopes, then have your children put their money in an offering jar at home, to be taken along to church when possible. The pandemic has disrupted many things, let us make sure that our children’s learning about honouring God with tithes and offerings does not become another casualty of COVID-19.

We were collecting canned food for the needy in the neighbourhood around our church. I was paired up with an older lady, one of my Sabbath school teachers. We had a modest haul of imperishable goods when we came to a certain house. It was unremarkable for that part of Adelaide: low wire fence and gate, path up to the front porch, brick and painted gables. We knocked and waited. The door opened and before we had got through our pitch, I was engulfed in a barking maelstrom of fur and teeth, saliva flying. My adult shielded me as we sprinted for the gate, while the dog’s adult tried to get it under control. It had death in its eyes. I can’t remember if I cried or if the fear paralysed my tear glands. Already anxious about knocking on the doors of strangers, this little encounter left me petrified. I broke down again when reunited with my parents and the story blubbered out.

  • Aore Adventist Hospital, Vanuatu
    Aore Adventist Hospital Photo courtesy of Adventist Heritage Centre, Australia. Aore Adventist Hospital, Vanuatu DAVID ROGERS David Rogers, M.Ed. (Avondale College, Cooranbong, Australia) retired in 2018 from the South Queensland Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Australia. David (an Australian) served God in Adventist Education as a teacher, university lecturer and school principal. Twelve of his seventeen years of Mission service were spent at Aore Adventist Academy, Vanuatu. In retirement, he assists Aore on a voluntary basis with its ongoing maintenance needs. He is married to Danielle, with three adult children. Aore Adventist Hospital operated between 1961 and 1977, and again briefly in 1981. It was located on the campus of Aore Adventist High School New Hebrides (modern Vanuatu).1 Developments That Led to the Establishment of the Hospital Vanuatu, known prior to its 1980 independence as the New Hebrides, saw the first Seventh-day Adventist missionaries arrive in 1912. They started working on the central island of Malekula whose people were amongst the most savage in the country. Their culture was steeped in heathen customs and tribal warfare.2 Their hygiene was non- existent. From the beginning, basic health care and hygiene were integral to the early missionaries’ work. By the mid-1920s, the mission’s leaders felt that they should start a training school to educate students from several islands whose villagers had renounced their animistic way of life. The missionaries searched for and found a property on Aore, an island off the southern coast of the island of Espiritu Santo. The site was considered ideal because its harbor would offer a safe anchorage for the mission’s boats.3 The mission station commenced operations in 1927, comprising an elementary school and ministerial training school.
