Welcome to Eastgate SDA Church! a Message from Student Pastor Rachelle Martling Welcome to Eastgate SDA Church! A message from Student Pastor Rachelle Martling Before I switched my major to Theology, I wanted to look at other Universities outside of Walla Walla University. As I was visiting the Theology department at another school, I had the privilege of meeting another potential student who was visiting from New York. I will never forget his story. Both of us were sitting in the Theology Department’s office waiting for a tour of the department. One of the professors started talking to us about the different programs they offered and asking us about our callings to ministry. This young man began to share his story and why he was interested in studying Theology. He was at least a third generation Adventist and could speak seven different languages. His ministry in New York resulted in dozens of youth and other people being baptized. The conference knew about his ministry and wanted to hire him. After being encouraged by his mentors from church he decided to look at completing a Theology degree. As he shares his story, he asked the important question, “What will these things add towards my education?” The professor responded with, “They will look good on your resume.” I couldn’t help but feel sorry for this person next to me who was working so hard for the Lord but would have to start at the bottom of the Theology program. His works could not earn him a degree. Nicodemus experienced a similar experience when he came to see Jesus one night. Nicodemus believed his works and his Jewish heritage would be enough to earn salvation. How disappointing it was to find out that his works gained him nothing. Instead he learned that salvation comes only through Jesus. Join us tomorrow as we explore, Nicodemus Finds Salvation. As always we will be streaming the service online. You can join in person, as well. We have masks available for use and will be following COVID precautions. ~ Pastor Rachelle This Weekend: February 13, 2021 Pastor Rachelle Martling, Nicodemus Finds Salvation Next Weekend: February 20, 2021 Head Elder, Carol Hargreaves; a Mission Report Week At A Glance February 13, Sabbath: 9:30am Live Sabbath Schools in the Church ~ The Word a Zoom~Hybrid Sabbath School > II Samuel 24:28 - I Kings chapter 2 ~ Lenard Wittlake Sabbath School Adult Quarterly > Isaiah; Defeat of the Assyrians ~ Young Adult Sabbath School, a Zoom~Hybrid studying about David ~ I Samuel ~ Juniors/Youth Zoom Sabbath School 11:00am – 12:15pm Worship Service – Acts of the Spirit; Rachelle Martling Sunset 5:26pm February 14, Sunday Valentine’s Day ~ remember the “Loves” in your life!

Jesus, the $17,000.00 Miracle Worker, would preach by the Sea of Galilee $15,000.00 that day. He wanted to see Jesus. His mother $13,000.00 $10,405.37 $11,000.00 packed him a lunch. The boy didn’t realize that $9,000.00 what he had in his hand would touch the lives of $7,000.00 thousands that day and for centuries to come. $5,000.00 He arrived early and found a front-row seat. He $10,231.26 $3,000.00 never remembered his lunch until near evening. $1,000.00 Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Monthly Goal: $10,282.50 Then he heard the Master speaking to the disciples about a need for food. He offered Jesus all the food P a g e 2 o f 11 he had. Jesus thanked him and asked the multitude to sit down. He “took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.” Matthew 14:19 That day, 5,000 men, plus women and children, ate their fill of warm bread and salted fish. Jesus told them to gather up the leftovers. Can’t you see the boy filling his bag with the miracle food and rushing home to share with his mother? Not one of the four gospel writers tells us his name. But his actions are recorded for all eternity. As we give today to support evangelistic efforts throughout the North American Division, I want to ask you, what do you have in your hand? God can take the offering you have in your hand and by His touch multiply your offering to bless the lives of thousands.

Its headquarters is in Juracy Magalhães Street, no. 3110, zip code 45023-490, district of Morada dos Pássaros II, in the city of Vitoria da Conquista, in Bahia State, Brazil.1 The city of Vitória da Conquista, where the administrative headquarters is located, is also called the southwestern capital of Bahia since it is one of the largest cities in Bahia State. With the largest geographical area among the five SDA administrative units in the State of Bahia, SWBA operates in 166 municipalities.2 The population of this region is 3,943,982 inhabitants3 in a territory of 99,861,370 sq. mi. (258,639,761 km²).4 The mission oversees 42 pastoral districts with 34,044 members meeting in 174 organized churches and 259 companies. Thus, the average is one Adventist per 116 inhabitants.5 SWBA manages five schools. These are: Escola Adventista de Itapetinga (Itapetinga Adventist School) in the city of Itapetinga with 119 students; Colégio Adventista de Itapetinga (Itapetinga Adventist Academy), also in Itapetinga, with 374 students; Escola Adventista de Jequié (Jequié Adventist School) with 336 students; Colégio Adventista de Barreiras (Barreiras Adventist Academy) in Barreiras with 301 students; and Conquistense Adventist Academy with 903 students.

  • Seventh-Day Adventism, Doctrinal Statements, and Unity
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 27/1-2 (2016): 98-116. Article copyright © 2016 by Michael W. Campbell. Seventh-day Adventism, Doctrinal Statements, and Unity Michael W. Campbell Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies Cavite, Philippines 1. Introduction “All Christians engage in confessional synthesis,” wrote theologian Carl R. Trueman.1 Some religious groups adhere to a public confession of faith as subject to public scrutiny whereas others are immune to such scrutiny. Early Seventh-day Adventists, with strong ties to the Christian Connexion, feared lest the creation of a statement of beliefs so that some at some point may disagree with that statement may at some point be excluded.2 Another danger was that statements of belief might be used to present making new discoveries from Scripture, or afterward a new truth might be stifled by appealing to the authority of an already established creed. From the perspective of early Sabbatarian Adventists, some remembered the time when during the Millerite revival that statements of belief were used to exclude them from church fellowship.3 These fears were aptly expressed during the earliest organizational developments in 1861 of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. According to denominational co-founder, James White: “making a creed is setting the stakes, and barring up the way to all future advancement. The Bible is 1 Carl R.

  • Seventh-Day Adventist Church
    Seventh-day Adventist Church General Information The Seventh-day Adventist Church was officially established in 1863, although it traces its date of birth to 1844 when it affirmed the beliefs that came to form its name. These beliefs include: the Bible as the infallible Word of God; the creation of the world in six days, with the seventh day (Saturday) set aside as the Sabbath; and the imminent return (Advent) of Christ. Other distinctive beliefs include: the indivisibility of the human body, mind, and spirit; death as an unconscious state to be followed by a resurrection; humanity as embroiled in a great struggle between God and the Devil; the moral and dietary laws of the Old Testament as still binding upon Christians; and a final judgment, starting with God’s people, which began in heaven in 1844 and will culminate when Christ returns to earth. Because Adventists believe that body, mind, and soul are inseparable, spiritual import is given to physical health and mental education. This emphasis has inspired Adventists to establish schools, hospitals, clinics, and health food factories. It also has inspired the Church to encourage its members to refrain from alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine, and to adopt a vegetarian diet. Today, an estimated 35% of Adventists practice vegetarianism. Number of members worldwide: 15.6 million Number of members in the US and Canada: 1.06 million Governing Body: The Seventh-day Adventist Church has four levels of government: the local church; the local conference or mission; the union conference or mission; and the General Conference. The General Conference headquarters is in Silver Spring, Maryland.
