“Bombshell News—Coming…The Third Temple and Animal Sacrifices in Israel” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

The mainstream media missed a shocking aspect of Israeli Minister of Foreign Affairs Yisrael Katz’s speech in front of the 74^th session of the UN General Assembly, which has been described as an “absolute bombshell.” Was Katz, a direct descendant of Aaron the priest, advocating and announcing the prophesied building of the Third Temple and the commencement of animal sacrifices?

“Hat Gott SIE vor Ihrer Geburt gekannt?” is the title of this Sabbath’s German sermon, presented by Norbert Link. Title in English: “Did God Know You Before Your Birth?”

The German sermonette from last Sabbath by Robert Kintzi has also been posted.

“The Only Thing to Fear,” the sermonette present last Sabbath by Frank Bruno, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Obviously the world has become a much more dangerous place in recent years, and the blessings that we’ve enjoyed from God here in the United States and elsewhere will not endure in the face of outright disobedience of God’s Commands. As we move forward we are admonished to be watchful of the signs, and be spiritually prepared for the return of our savior, Jesus Christ. We are also told clearly not to fear as prophecy unfolds, but to focus on our relationship with God for clarity and comfort. In this Sermonette we will cover some of the scriptural foundation of this guidance so as to have a deeper understanding and appreciation for God’s plan.

“Sustaining our Light in Darkness,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Robb Harris, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Christianity, as Jesus exemplified, is a path full of adversity.  A world of hatred surrounds and tries to suffocate any light of God’s Truth.  We must be resolute in our onward march in becoming perfect, especially when Satanic deceit is so encompassing in all aspects of life.  In that light, it is critical that we look to God’s Sabbath and Holy Days for the rest and recharge we are afforded by them.

“A Great Sound!” the sermonette presented during the Morning Services on the Feast of Trumpets by Dave Harris, is now posted. Here is a summary:

What does sound have to do with the return of Jesus Christ, and what meaning is there for Christians?

“Special,” the sermon presented during the Morning Services on the Feast of Trumpets by Eric Rank, is now posted. Here is a summary:

The Israelites, including the spiritual Israelites, are a special people to God called by Him for a special purpose. By following God’s commandments, we maintain this special relationship and guarantee for ourselves a fantastic future.

“Goals in This Life,” the Offertory presented during Afternoon Services on the Feast of Trumpets by Kalon Mitchell, is now posted.

“The Warning of the Watchmen,” the sermon presented during Afternoon Services on the Feast of Trumpets by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

The Feast of Trumpets reminds us of the Second Coming of Christ at the sound of the last trumpet and our resurrection, change and gathering with Him. But we also think of the terrible events which will occur prior to Christ’s Return. These events are announced symbolically many times in the Bible through the blowing of trumpets.

It is the responsibility of the Church of God to proclaim the coming Kingdom of God and God’s rule over the Earth. This includes warning mankind of imminent trouble. The prophet Ezekiel received from God a warning message for the House of Israel, but it was not meant for the Ezekiel of old and the ancient House of Israel. Rather, it is a warning for the modern House of Israel and for all peoples, as well as for God’s Church, which must proclaim this message today.

“Impeaching Donald Trump? No Way—and here Is WHY!” is the title of a StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

During a phone conversation in July of 2019, President Donald Trump spoke with the new leader of Ukraine, Mr. Zelenskiy, about investigating the son of former Vice President Joe Biden. As a consequence, many congressional Democrats are determined to impeach President Trump, alleging a quid pro quo deal, as Trump had withheld money approved by Congress to be given to Ukraine. At the same time, others allege that a quit pro quo existed regarding the dealings between Biden and other Democratic senators and the Ukrainian government, allegedly threatening to withhold aid, unless Ukraine were to act in a particular way. This program discusses the underlying circumstances, as well as the released transcript of the phone conversation and the whistleblower complaint, and shows you why Trump will stay in office and be reelected in 2020.

“Entmutigung, Depression und Selbstmordgedanken… Was kann man tun?” is the title of this Sabbath’s new German sermon, presented by Norbert Link. Title in English: “Discouragement, Depression and Thoughts of Suicide… What Should One Do?”

Netanyahu is fighting for his political survival; while the USA is wavering in its response to Iran’s perceived attack on Saudi Arabia. Europe blames President Trump for the current escalation.

“Our Scandalous Corrupt Abortion Industry,” is the title of a new StandingWatch  program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

This program will discuss an appalling and disturbing legal case in California, involving our corrupt abortion industry. This example could be looked upon as exposing a conspiracy between governmental agencies, politicians and abortionists in an attempt to protect the illegal trafficking of body parts of aborted babies, while persecuting and trying to silence those who expose such abominable practices.

“Unsere ungerechte Welt–unsere Wirtschaftssysteme,” is the title of this Sabbath’s new German sermon, presented by Norbert Link. Title in English: “Our Unrighteous World–Our Economic Systems.”

“Warum unvermeidlicher Streit?” the sermonette presented last Sabbath in Germany by Thilo Hanstein, is now posted.

“Lack and Limitation,” the sermonette presented last Sabbath by Kalon Mitchell, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Often times throughout our Christian life we can run into situations which stop us from growing or moving forward. When we encounter these situations we need to understand that there is a way out and a way forward. When we are not growing we are limiting how God can work in our lives. We need to continually remember that it is through our own lack and limitations that God either works in and through us, or He can’t. The choice is entirely ours.

“Our Unrighteous School- and Education- Systems,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Norbert Link, is now posted. Here is a summary:

What is the origin of our modern education- and school- systems?  Do they help us to understand the Truth? What does the Bible tell us about human wisdom, ethics and philosophy? What are some of the many wrong concepts which our children are being taught in school? What can parents do to counteract the oftentimes devastating influence which our children experience in school?

“Suicide—Why… and How to Prevent  It?” is the title of a new StandingWatch program, presented by Evangelist Norbert Link. Here is a summary:

Suicide rates are on the rise; especially in rural counties of the USA. This week has been declared as the “National Suicide Prevention Week,” to bring awareness to the warning signs of suicide. But what are they? What drives a person to wanting to commit this final act? Discouragement and depression are leading causes of suicide, but why do people become depressed? Why is suicide so useless? Why is it never a solution? What can you do if you know of a person in danger… or if you yourself are that person?

“Unsere ungerechte Welt — unsere Schul- und Bildungssysteme,” is the title of this Sabbath’s new German sermon, presented by Norbert Link. Title in English: “Our Unrighteous World–Our School- and Education-Systems.”

“Conquering the Storm,” the sermonette presented last Sabbath by Robb Harris, is now posted. Here is a summary:

The judgement of mankind is going to come upon the world like a thief in the night.  Putting off our spiritual growth for another day will lull us into a state of unpreparedness. We must make it a daily goal to be spiritually ready for these tumultuous times ahead.

“The Law is Spiritual,” the sermon presented last Sabbath by Dave Harris, is now posted. Here is a summary:

Are you a spiritual person? Is that even possible? If it is, then how can that be achieved?
