Sabbath October 3, 2020
As the “latter days” prophesied in scripture draw ever closer, we need to consider the relevance of the Feast of Tabernacles.

Prophecy of the Future: Truth and Error
The bible portrays a vision of the future that some Christians are unaware of, and others reject due to their preconceptions. But what does the scripture say about the millennial world, the world after the return of Jesus Christ. And why does it matter??
The Feast of Tabernacles, the fall festival of scripture, looks forward to a time of unprecedented peace and prosperity ushered in after climactic events at the end of the present age.

Hope for humanity, Christ will return; the Kingdom of God will be setup on Earth, and then we will come to the Last Great Day, that Great White Throne Judgement. What is God’s purpose? How do we actively prepare? Jeff recounts his personal story of interrogation, trial, and travels through the Iron Curtain in the land of darkness which was then communist Hungary and Romania. Then he links this to our role now that will impact the future of those who will be resurrected to life when the Last Great Day finds its fulfillment.
