The Supreme Sacrifice
In the back of my Bible, I have two quotations that I read very often to remind me of the direction of my preaching. The first one is: Gospel Workers, [Ellen G. White], p. 315: “The sacrifice of Christ as an atonement for sin is the great truth around which all other truths cluster. In…

The ‘In Christ’ Motif
When Christ came to this world 2,000 years ago, He came primarily to be the gospel, not just to explain the gospel. It is Paul who God set aside to explain the gospel. Paul tells us about himself and his ministry: Ephesians 3:8: Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given…

The Righteousness of God
In 1972, my family and I had the “privilege” of being deported from Uganda by Idi Amin. I say “privilege” because the other alternative was to be put into a concentration camp and be shot. When we left, we lost everything. Idi Amin would not allow us to even touch our bank account. Each one…

The Signs of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ
“Watch therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the good man of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore, be ye also ready; for in such…

Ellen White and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ
It was not long after the passing of the time, in 1844, that my first vision was given me. I was visiting Mrs. Haines at Portland, a dear sister in Christ, whose heart was knit with mine; five of us, all women, were kneeling quietly at the family altar. While we were praying, the…
