Worship: For Heaven’s Sake The three angels’ messages are the final warning messages to the world. Collectively, they are God’s final call. Two major events happened after the third angel’s message. (Read more below.)
Wellness: For Health’s Sake Seeds, beans, or grains soaked overnight until they germinate or sprout have wonderful health benefits, says Pastor Flemons, a doctor of biblical wellness and naturopathy.

Words of Encouragement
Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Isaiah 58:10-11 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noon day: And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

For Heaven’s Sake…
The three angels’ messages are actually presented to the world by God’s commandment-keeping people. The first angel’s message warns the world to get our hearts right and worship God for His investigative judgment has begun. The second angel’s message reveals the deceptions of false worship and announces the church in its fallen state, including the fall of the church from its apostolic moral purity and particularly the fallen state of Protestantism. The third angel’s message warns of the deadly result of worshiping according to the enemy of God and receiving the mark of the beast. It is the final test for all people, whether we will worship God or Satan.
Revelation 14:13-20
13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
The people of God and all the world will be put to a final test. “It won’t be pretty,” says Pastor Flemons. Satan has always operated by deception and force and will persist with vigor throughout the final test. There will be martyrs just as in the Dark Ages; although, not all will be martyrs. But blessed are those who die in the Lord, for they will be resurrected soon.
This time, God’s people are fully ripe. The character of Christ is fully reflected in them. With holy reverence, they reject the traditions and commandments of men and choose death rather than sin against God.
The time is announced for Jesus to do the reaping. Arriving on a cloud, just as He left, Jesus returns for His people just as He promised. (See Acts 1:9-11 and Revelation 1:7.)
The two great events are the second coming of Jesus and the destruction of the wicked.
Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Pastor Flemons ended by asking a question each of us must answer: Now that you know, what side will you be on?
For Health’s Sake…
An article he found had some really good points he wanted to share, because people do not generally get enough fiber in their diet. Sprouts, especially mung beans, provide a high level of dietary fiber, although alfalfa sprouts are very, very good.
Sprouts provide B-complex vitamins. People with anxiety, depression, nervousness or pain will do well to increase their B-complex vitamins for their calming effect and to have healthy nerves.
Protein is found in almost all sprouts, especially mung beans. Most people get too much protein, but it is the wrong kind. Sprouts provide a better source of protein than the flesh of dead animals or dairy products.
Enzymes are needed for proper digestion. It is advisable to eat sprouts with our meals to enhance digestion. When you feel that your meal has landed like a brick, you need enzymes. Choose sprouts.
Antioxidants, naturally found in sprouts, help protect the body from the damaging effects of free radicals, which put the body at risk of almost every kind of disease. Because free radicals also cause cancer, sprouts are a wonderful way to introduce antioxidants into your diet and prevent cancer, especially broccoli sprouts.
Vitamin C is critical for a strong immune system. Citrus fruits are the typical source of vitamin C, but you cannot go wrong with sprouts. Sprouts tend to be high in vitamin C.
Diabetics would love to learn that eating sprouts reduces insulin resistance. Diabetics usually produce insulin. The problem is that they tend not to be able to properly absorb it. Sprouts help with that.
“Sprouting whole grains reduces the amount of starch they contain and boosts their nutritional value. Sprouted grains contain mildly elevated levels of nutrients, such as vitamin C, carotenoids and protein, compared to sprouted seeds. An advantage to sprouted wheat, rye and barley is that they contain less of the protein gluten, which is difficult for some people to digest, according to the University of California, Davis. Higher levels of the enzyme amylase make sprouted grains helpful for digesting carbohydrates into sugars. Sprouted grains also contain the enzyme phytase, which can prevent mineral absorption.”
Sprouting is really a great way to a high return of value for such a low investment. Stay tuned for methods of sprouting in tomorrow’s broadcast.
