On Saturday (May 11th 2019), Kimberly Peters spoke at the Poughkeepsie SDA Church on the topic Made In His Image, After His Likeness. Here is an excerpt of the sermon:
We have two forces vying for our attention in this world: Good and Evil. Satan has many doctrines, distractions and devices to keep us busy and preoccupied with the things of this world. Even the wonderful blessings God has given to us, the enemy takes them and perverts them. If you think about it, it can be an idol: our careers, families, material possessions, social status, celebrities, athletes, social media personalities, business execs, political and military leaders, even our positions in church and preachers/evangelists (that we follow and go wherever they are preaching!) can be idolized too! The list is endless – but God sent His Son to remind us of our identity and of our high calling and where our focus should be…
How do we break free from the time-stealers and the idols in our lives? How do we help those who have changed the image of God into 4-legged beasts or deleted God and replaced Him with Mother Nature? How can be tackle the ever-changing identities in society? Jesus showed us how and we must spend more time studying His life and His ministry so that we can relearn ours.
