Pioneer PulpitFebruary 8 – "To Preach the Gospel" – Dwain Esmond ————— Prayer Promise"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." The Tithing Agreement Hans Miranda-Chavez Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. (Malachi 3:10 NIV). In the text above, we observe a proposed agreement between God and those who accept to enter into a covenant with Him. I don’t find any evidence to suggest that this covenant was only for the people of Israel or, in the present time, only for those considered God’s people. Instead, I propose that anyone can enter into a covenant with God and reap the blessings as promised. Spelunker Quest: February 8 • 2:00 PM Calling all youth!

Upcoming Events FEBRUARY MARCH Fellowship Dinner Following the second worship service, there will be a fellowship dinner in the commons on the lower level. Visitors are welcome! Offering for February 8, 2025 Adventist Television Ministries Evangelism In 1 Corinthians 9:22 Paul says, “I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some” (NIV). As one of those possible means to save some, the Adventist church in North America is using television. There are millions of people who watch Adventist media programs every year. If the Apostle Paul would have been alive in the 21st century, he would be sharing a Christ-centered message of hope and wholeness through technology and media.
