Last time I checked Daniel 8:14 says "......then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." It does not say that a cleansing will then begin. Remember verse 13 had the question and it was of the time period for the whole end of the trampling of the Sanctuary ( the temple in Jerusalem then in the future). So to answer " Well after two thousand and three hundred years, the Sanctuary will begin to be cleansed, does not answer the question, but leaves it hanging.
"Last time I checked Daniel 8:14 says "......then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." It does not say that a cleansing will then begin." It does if you read from verse 13 A question is asked which is basically how long will this last. And the answer is 2300 days, then the sanctuary shall be cleansed. So that can be understood as a cleansing began after the 2300 days had pass.
@@mikhailhunter5277 With all due respect you have not comprehended my argument. I referenced verse 13 which was a question as to when the Sanctuary would no longer be trampled. So the answer would provide the date it would stop being trampled, that is vindicated or cleansed. The word cleansed there refers to a completed process. The SDA interpretation is that October 22nd 1844, the end of the 2300 "days" was the BEGINNING of an Investigative Judgement. The Investigative Judgement is the actual cleansing of the Sanctuary and it was not completed in 1844 but only just began. Therefore the question from verse 13 was never really answered. No one knows when the I.J. ends except God according to SDA doctrine. So do you see that the SDA interpretation is nonsensical?
@@mikhailhunter5277 Thank you for your reply. You are apparently a gracious brother showing the fruits of the Spirit. RasTafari does not have an official view on that prophecy but generally we see Emperor Haile Selassie I as a return of Christ as he gave up his carnal self to let the Spirit of Christ work through him. With that in mind we would see the 70 weeks as an accurate prophecy as to when Christ would first show up as the Messiah around the early years of the A.D. era. The 23 hundred evenings and mornings ( the daily sacrifices in the Temple) I personally see as literally days and refers to 1150 days which comes to 2300 evenings and mornings. That was fulfilled in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes who captured Jerusalem and defiled the Temple for that amount of time. The Jews celebrate to this day, the vindication that happened through the Maccabees at the end of the time. They call it Hanukkah. Peace and Blessings.
I'd love to visit there too, growing up in the 80s, we saw the devastation of the famine and we tried to help by collecting so many things to get money to help Oxfam etc. The film's we saw made us feel so blessed we were children growing up in Wales. I would love to see how the country has changed since then. God bless you and be with you. much love from Wales.
Hebrews 10:25, KJV: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
Yes, I agree! If you are not familiar with Pastor Ivor Myers then check him out. The Lord is speaking through him for sure. Praise God for these pastor's.
I think pastors like Pastor Doug and Pastor Bohr have always preached the Word powerfully, but God is awakening our sense of the shortness of time, and the Holy Spirit is able to more powerfully move our hearts and minds because we are willing and eager to hear and understand it. Also check out Pastor Lomacang on the Thompsonville SDA Church CZcams channel. He is another of God's watchmen on the wall!
AMEN! I pray that God Almighty sends His blessings upon our broken world, we His people needed Him so very much in this hard times. In Jesus Christ name I pray. Amen, Amen, and Amen.
I like and enjoy everything Mr. Batchelor puts out, thank you Lord for having this man deliver unto us your message, I learn and become humble when I listen to him sharing your message with us.
@@PastorBatchelor Questions: 1. Isn't the most holy place the location of God the father according to the design of the earthly temple? 2. If Jesus is seated at the right hand of God after the resurrection, then isn't Jesus sitting in the most holy place where he needs to put his blood?(Mark 16:19) 3. Doesn't the blood of Jesus have to be placed on the throne(ark) of God? 3. Isn't the ark of the covenant on earth the representation of the throne of God? 4. Isn't the throne room the location of the throne(ark) of God the father? 6. Why wouldn't Jesus put his blood on Gods throne(ark) while he's sitting right next to the throne(ark) in the throne room until October 22, 1844?
When your sad and feel alone And days pass slowly by No need to face a dark unknown No need to reason why For there's a lite to show our path A lite too long forgotten A lite that heals a broken heart And brings a new direction Each move we make each step we take,...Our God Is ever near There's no need to feel afraid He'll dry your falling tears.
just read the part about how horrible it was when the Temple was destroyed in The first chapter of The Great Controversy. Your sermons are such a great blessing. God bless you all for your ministry.
The Scriptures is the greatest Love Letter ever written to man. I pray that you are so thirsty for the Living Water and the Fire that we all come to a end of self and move from a "I have faith In Jesus" to " Have the faith OF Jesus".
Clothed with human nature All glory left behind The MISSION of this great teacher Seared deep within His mind With strength of equal value Of guilty fallen man The sun, the moon, the stars above All viewed this wonderous plan Weighed down by the crushing WRATH of God, Drinks the punishment of our sin, His Heart ablaze, His soul a slave Still MERCY shon within With this great feat accomplished In TRIUMPH He will lead All who come with contrite heart Bought with BLOOD and TEARS.
Im glad you preached on this topic and also surprised I was just telling a coworker last week that i though the temple was not a building. this helps me to better understand what i was already thinking. god bless all.
I try to study the Bible regularly and, sometimes , I think I know it quite well. But, when I hear Pastor Doug preach, I realize how little I know and how much more I need to study. Thank you Pastor Doug for the great work that you are doing ; and thank you for helping my Christian growth and understanding ! 😊
Wow. What a relief to the rest of us who don't hold this view. I mean all the effort involved. (Imagine having to maintain and defend a doctrine like this year after year since 1844, just so your denomination won't crumble.)
@@elmastewart8677 I haven't been ignored. I have 6 up votes. Why is it that no other Christian denomination in the entire world comes to the conclusion that something of spiritual significance happened in October 22, 1844? Are they all wrong? Do they not "know the scriptures?"
@Nuteena_Haystack Goodmorning morning nuteena, and greetings to u and your family. Am so glad you respond, and ask questions, you see, there's so many things one can say what regards to this 1844 scenario if they do not understand/ and have the right interpretation of the scriptures, first let me say this, we were told by the prophet Isaiah in Isaiah chapter 8 verse 20 ,TO the law which is the ten commandments and to the testimony which is the writings of the prophets, testimony both old and new testament, if they who teach and preach do not teach and preach concerning upholding law and prophets writings, it is because there is no light in them. If I write too long, is because I want to be clear. Have you ever taken the time to truthfully study these things that you add the rest don't hold to thus view,as u put it? Question, Doesn't the Bible says the time has come for judgment to begin at God's house? 1st Peter chapter 4 verse 17 didn't God said he will appoint a day, in which he will judge the earth? And so many more scriptures that speak of the judgment, Jesus himself tell us that he is coming with his reward to give unto the righteous. We do not have to maintain and defend any doctrine which is a lie, the truth can stand on its own naked, true Adventist doctrine is biblical, and I said true Adventist, am not talking about the false apostate fall away ones, that give up the truth as it is in Jesus. just ask us to explain and take time to listen and ask questions, any question that comes to your mind with regards to our doctrine can be answered with a thus saith the Lord and is biblical. You don't have to believe, but if it is true then your salvation depends on it, and you cannot say you don't hear, because the angels that bear records don't tell lies. Many fall away because of unbelief, they did not enter into his rest. At the time of the end the vision of Daniel must be understood. U just don't understand these things/ the scriptures, hence you don't not know the time you're living in, " and what must be" as the disciples aak Jesus.
Nothing is for certain As we travel our own way There's little indication As to what we'll face each day Our portion lies before us Our yesterday's are gone With a changing world around us We face a dark unknown So do not stop to reason Of what is yet to be For we can't loose the bonds Of that we cannot see But here today why do we stand alone, So blind and insecure? When others who we do not know Are living the greater fear.
Kudos for having the integrity to leave comments open. I believe Miller was wrong in his basic premise, as are all who attempt to set dates. I believe that no amount of spin can alter this fact. Everyone, every group, insists that every other group is outside of the real truth. All i can say for sure is that we'll all know soon enough. Let God be true, and every man a liar.
I am a Christian and i have a lot of respect for SDA teaching and seriously considering SDA teaching on the Sabbath . that being said, I would take great pause with regard to replacement theology: the Gentile believers have been grafted into the Olive Tree; it is clear that God is using Israel in these last times. in 1948, the world saw a miracle no less significant and awe inspiring than the Exodus, yet, No One in the 19th century would have thot it possible. God accomplishes all He sets out to do fear of WW3 aside; that would not start until HE alone wills it! a remnant will be saved outta Israel and they will foresake their lamb sacrifices and recognize the One True Lamb sacrifice for sins. i mean this statement with all due respect.
The father is giving you the knowledge of his Sabbath you are blessed!! You do not want to hear the lord say away from me I never new you. You who does iniquity. That means one who does not keep the law which is the ten commandments You can Google what a doer of iniquity is The father is calling to you Michael What a honor for you!!
Yes Sabbath is for mankind but the Sabbath that SDA is keeping don't benefits man because it doesn't give man liberal to rest and work and worship when he chose
Praise God for you watching from Ethiopia. I'm praying for the work and workers there and supporting as best as I can through Gospel Outreach. I pray many others will join us in this for God's family is One worldwide and all His children must be fed and nourished in His Word and fellowship at His table. Blessings on this first day of the week, Sunday.
"The Great Controversy" Page 326 "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy Holy City. . . . Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for Himself. . . . And He shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week He shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease." The angel had been sent to Daniel for the express purpose of explaining to him the point which he had failed to understand in the vision of the eighth chapter, the statement relative to time--"unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." After bidding Daniel "understand the matter, and consider the vision," the very first words of the angel are: "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy Holy City." The word here translated "determined" literally signifies "cut off." Seventy weeks, representing 490 years, are declared by the angel to be cut off, as specially pertaining to the Jews. But from what were they cut off? As the2300 days was the only period of time mentioned in chapter 8, it must be the period from which the seventy weeks were cut off; the seventy weeks must therefore be a part of the 2300 days, and the two periods must begin together. The seventy weeks were declared by the angel to date from the going forth of the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem. If the date of this commandment could be found, then the starting point for the great period of the 2300 days would be ascertained. In the seventh chapter of Ezra the decree is found. Verses 12-26. In its completest form it was issued by Artaxerxes, king of Persia, 457 B.C. But in Ezra 6:14 the house of the Lord at Jerusalem is said to have been built "according to the commandment ["decree," margin] of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia." These three kings, in originating, reaffirming, and completing the decree, brought it to the perfection required by the prophecy to mark the beginning of the 2300 years. Taking 457 B.C., the time when the decree was completed, as the date of the commandment, every specification of the prophecy concerning the seventy weeks was seen to have been fulfilled. "From the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks"--namely, sixty-nine weeks, or 483 years. The decree of Artaxerxes went into effect in the autumn of 457 B.C. From this date, 483 years extend to the autumn of A.D. 27. (See Appendix.) At that time this prophecy was fulfilled. The word "Messiah" signifies "the Anointed One." In the autumn of A.D. 27 Christ was baptized by John and received the anointing of the Spirit. The apostle Peter testifies that "God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power." Acts 10:38. And the Saviour Himself declared: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor." Luke 4:18. After His baptism He went into Galilee, "preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, The time is fulfilled." Mark 1:14, 15. "And He shall confirm the covenant with many for one week." The "week" here brought to view is the last one of the seventy; it is the last seven years of the period allotted especially to the Jews. During this time, extending from A.D. 27 to A.D. 34, Christ, at first in person and afterward by His disciples, extended the gospel invitation especially to the Jews. As the apostles went forth with the good tidings of the kingdom, the Saviour's direction was: "Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." Matthew 10:5, 6. "In the midst of the week He shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease." In A.D. 31, three and a half years after His baptism, our Lord was crucified. With the great sacrifice offered upon Calvary, ended that system of offerings which for four thousand years had pointed forward to the Lamb of God. Type had met antitype, and all the sacrifices and oblations of the ceremonial system were there to cease. The seventy weeks, or 490 years, especially allotted to the Jews, ended, as we have seen, in A.D. 34. At that time, through the action of the Jewish Sanhedrin, the nation sealed its rejection of the gospel by the martyrdom of Stephen and the persecution of the followers of Christ. Then the message of salvation, no longer restricted to the chosen people, was given to the world. The disciples, forced by persecution to flee from Jerusalem, "went everywhere preaching the word." "Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them." Peter, divinely guided, opened the gospel to the centurion of Caesarea, the God-fearing Cornelius; and the ardent Paul, won to the faith of Christ, was commissioned to carry the glad tidings "far hence unto the Gentiles." Acts 8:4, 5; 22:21. Thus far every specification of the prophecies is strikingly fulfilled, and the beginning of the seventy weeks is fixed beyond question at 457 B.C., and their expiration in A.D. 34. From this data there is no difficulty in finding the termination of the 2300 days. The seventy weeks--490 days--having been cut off from the 2300, there were 1810 days remaining. After the end of 490 days, the 1810 days were still to be fulfilled. From A.D. 34, 1810 years extend to 1844. Consequently the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14 terminate in 1844. At the expiration of this great prophetic period, upon the testimony of the angel of God, "the sanctuary shall be cleansed." Thus the time of the cleansing of the sanctuary--which was almost universally believed to take place at the second advent-was definitely pointed out. Miller and his associates at first believed that the 2300 days would terminate in the spring of 1844, whereas the prophecy points to the autumn of that year. (See Appendix.) The misapprehension of this point brought disappointment and perplexity to those who had fixed upon the earlier date as the time of the Lord's coming. But this did not in the least affect the strength of the argument showing that the 2300 days terminated in the year 1844, and that the great event represented by the cleansing of the sanctuary must then take place.” [Citation: Prophetic Dates.--According to Jewish reckoning the fifth month (Ab) of the seventh year of Artaxerxes' reign was from July 23 to August 21, 457 B.C. After Ezra's arrival in Jerusalem in the autumn of the year, the decree of the king went into effect. For the certainty of the date 457 B.C. being the seventh year of Artaxerxes, see S. H. Horn and L. H. Wood, The Chronology of Ezra 7 (Washington, D. C.: Review and Herald Publishing Assn., 1953); E. G. Kraeling, The Brooklyn Museum Aramaic Papyri (New Haven or London, 1953), pp. 191-193; The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary (Washington, D.C.: Review and Herald PublishingAssn., 1954), vol. 3, pp. 97-110]

Children are so innocent, Satan has been going at it full time in undermining the crucial time with God of our youths, pray for your people may God bless you
I agree, and not only that his voice is pleasant, but his preaching is done without the shouting and theatrics/drama that accompany many other pastors of today. Information is clear and well presented - I really appreciate that
The book of Daniel has several verses that state the end will come at the appointed time. It speaks of the time of the end, the appointed time of the end, the time of wrath. Paul writes in Acts, For He (the Father) has SET a day when He will judge the world with justice. Jesus also said to the apostles, “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father HAS SET by His own authority.” (Acts 1:7). Why does the Adventist Church teach Jesus will not return until the church is ready? I do not believe that is Biblical. Can you please comment?
The SDA like many other churches of this world teach things that are not found in the scriptures. This is how we know they are not truly teaching the word of God. Satan has built his own churches and has deceived many.
Oh, I see what you're saying... I guess when, "all tribes and tongues" have heard the word he'll Rapture us. The Adventists will know their work is done upon his return.

In 2022, 1949’s calendar will be repeated. The Los Angeles tent revivals happened that year. This is prophetic. It was the year following the rebirth of the nation of Israel. The Temple was being rebuilt in the United States. Get the book, California of the South - lots of info of the history.
@@brianplassan2793 look at the Azusa Street Revival and the 1949 Los Angeles Street revivals - I just believe there will be another great move of God in the United States. Revival has come to America.
Pastor Doug, it does not matter what you believe, but it matters what is written! How about the temple of Ezekiel what is being detailed in chapter 40-44, and what has never been built yet? It is a great shortsightedness when one cannot even imagine a temple functioning in the Christian dispensation without the sacrificial system of animals. How about the type which was shown to Moses, the one installed in heaven? Is there any animal sacrifice being done there? Then why one assumes that, here on earth, there can be no temple perfectly functional even without sacrificing animals???
Hello pastor Dough Batchelor. I had to stop the video when you mention the Codex-Sinaiticus. I was hoping you’d shed some light on the errors on those manuscripts and how Wescott and Hort found those manuscripts in a waste basket in the Roman Catholic monastery. I’m not sure if you spoke highly of the Codex-Sinaiticus. It seemed that way to me but I’d like to ask and not assume. In my research on this subject I’ve found that those men did the devils work in trying to distort God’s word. I’d like to know what are your thoughts on this matter. May the peace and grace of Jesus Christ be with you dear pastor Dough Batchelor❤
HAHAHA Wish you told me that before I spent 35 years in this ridiculous cult. - Blessings brother, indeed it was just a face saving attempt when their ridiculous predictions came to nothing.
@@troywest Unfortunately they are the closest to the truth I've found. The SDA's biggest problem is Ellen whitism which corrupts their view of scriptures and prophecy. I still go to the SDA church but I don't consider myself one anymore but at least we agree on core issues like the law and Jesus being the way the truth and the life.
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love. Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die". BUT, mercy said "I dont want to give them what they deserve. I don't want them to be cut off from Me. I love them despite all they have done/will do against Me. I want to give My children another chance. I want them to come home and live in My love again". And love said "Jesus, God's Son, came down as a Man, our representative, suffering every temptation, pain and struggle we have ever faced, yet without sin. He took all our sins (past/present/ even future) to the cross and then crucified EVERY ONE on our behalf. Justice was paid on the cross so that we can be free from Hell's punishment, experience Gods mercy of forgiveness of sin and live in His love. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (turn away from our sin and pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life. He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it. He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through Him (not ourselves as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to obey His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and ask Him to help us in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, or struggling or doubtful, simply be honest and tell Him that. He is not intimidated by ANY sin or struggle you are facing. ANY. He hears and will answer. If we pray for Him to come in, regardless of the condition, then He will. NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER. If you have any questions let me know xx

'Temple Made of Time' - so beautiful and meaningful.
Thanks for the name of the song. 🙂. I was searching for it.
Beautiful singing. Loved the sermon
Last time I checked Daniel 8:14 says "......then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."
It does not say that a cleansing will then begin.
Remember verse 13 had the question and it was of the time period for the whole end of the trampling of the Sanctuary ( the temple in Jerusalem then in the future).
So to answer " Well after two thousand and three hundred years, the Sanctuary will begin to be cleansed, does not answer the question, but leaves it hanging.
"Last time I checked Daniel 8:14 says "......then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."
It does not say that a cleansing will then begin."
It does if you read from verse 13
A question is asked which is basically how long will this last. And the answer is 2300 days, then the sanctuary shall be cleansed.
So that can be understood as a cleansing began after the 2300 days had pass.
@@mikhailhunter5277 With all due respect you have not comprehended my argument.
I referenced verse 13 which was a question as to when the Sanctuary would no longer be trampled.
So the answer would provide the date it would stop being trampled, that is vindicated or cleansed.
The word cleansed there refers to a completed process.
The SDA interpretation is that October 22nd 1844, the end of the 2300 "days" was the BEGINNING of an Investigative Judgement.
The Investigative Judgement is the actual cleansing of the Sanctuary and it was not completed in 1844 but only just began.
Therefore the question from verse 13 was never really answered.
No one knows when the I.J. ends except God according to SDA doctrine.
So do you see that the SDA interpretation is nonsensical?
@@thenowchurch6419 I apologize, I misunderstood your comment. What is the Rastafari view of this?
@@mikhailhunter5277 Thank you for your reply.
You are apparently a gracious brother showing the fruits of the Spirit.
RasTafari does not have an official view on that prophecy but generally we see Emperor Haile Selassie I as a return of Christ as he gave up his carnal self to let the Spirit of Christ work through him.
With that in mind we would see the 70 weeks as an accurate prophecy as to when Christ would first show up as the Messiah around the early years of the A.D. era.
The 23 hundred evenings and mornings ( the daily sacrifices in the Temple) I personally see as literally days and refers to 1150 days which comes to 2300 evenings and mornings.
That was fulfilled in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes who captured Jerusalem and defiled the Temple for that amount of time.
The Jews celebrate to this day, the vindication that happened through the Maccabees at the end of the time. They call it Hanukkah.
Peace and Blessings.

Is it just me or are pastors preaching more powerfully these days? Time is short
Yes, I agree! If you are not familiar with Pastor Ivor Myers then check him out. The Lord is speaking through him for sure. Praise God for these pastor's.
I think pastors like Pastor Doug and Pastor Bohr have always preached the Word powerfully, but God is awakening our sense of the shortness of time, and the Holy Spirit is able to more powerfully move our hearts and minds because we are willing and eager to hear and understand it.

I believe they are Pat.
Only a precious few. Too many are preaching fluff and stuff instead of end time meat we desperately need. Or worse, preaching a Jesuit bent message
No power or character to stand for freedom failing God.
AMEN! I pray that God Almighty sends His blessings upon our broken world, we His people needed Him so very much in this hard times. In Jesus Christ name I pray. Amen, Amen, and Amen.

Questions:
1. Isn't the most holy place the location of God the father according to the design of the earthly temple?
2. If Jesus is seated at the right hand of God after the resurrection, then isn't Jesus sitting in the most holy place where he needs to put his blood?(Mark 16:19)
3. Doesn't the blood of Jesus have to be placed on the throne(ark) of God?
3. Isn't the ark of the covenant on earth the representation of the throne of God?
4. Isn't the throne room the location of the throne(ark) of God the father?
6. Why wouldn't Jesus put his blood on Gods throne(ark) while he's sitting right next to the throne(ark) in the throne room until October 22, 1844?
When your sad and feel alone
And days pass slowly by
No need to face a dark unknown
No need to reason why
For there's a lite to show our path
A lite too long forgotten
A lite that heals a broken heart
And brings a new direction
Each move we make each step we take,...Our God Is ever near
There's no need to feel afraid
He'll dry your falling tears.
Powerful pastor Doug. You are forever❤ amazing. Thanks for inspiring me.

Thank u for the message. Yes, our body is the temple of God.

Your sermons are such a great blessing. God bless you all for your ministry.
Amen amen. Praise the LORD. May church always follow what is right.
The Scriptures is the greatest Love Letter ever written to man. I pray that you are so thirsty for the Living Water and the Fire that we all come to a end of self and move from a "I have faith In Jesus" to " Have the faith OF Jesus".
What a beautifIul opening hymn...
Happy Sabbath day
Amen Pastor,God bless us all His children
Clothed with human nature
All glory left behind
The MISSION of this great teacher
Seared deep within His mind
With strength of equal value
Of guilty fallen man

Weighed down by the crushing WRATH of God, Drinks the punishment of our sin,
His Heart ablaze, His soul a slave
Still MERCY shon within
With this great feat accomplished
In TRIUMPH He will lead

State Line SDA Pastor is doing very well too in teaching/preaching on point with the BIBLE.
What a beautiful song ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
What a wonderful song!!!
Im glad you preached on this topic and also surprised I was just telling a coworker last week that i though the temple was not a building. this helps me to better understand what i was already thinking. god bless all.
Hm
I try to study the Bible regularly and, sometimes , I think I know it quite well. But, when I hear Pastor Doug preach, I realize how little I know and how much more I need to study. Thank you Pastor Doug for the great work that you are doing ; and thank you for helping my Christian growth and understanding ! 😊

Wow! Well spoken!!!
Wow. What a relief to the rest of us who don't hold this view. I mean all the effort involved.
(Imagine having to maintain and defend a doctrine like this year after year since 1844, just so your denomination won't crumble.)
You've been ignored in a beautiful way, you know not the scriptures.
@@elmastewart8677 I haven't been ignored. I have 6 up votes.
Why is it that no other Christian denomination in the entire world comes to the conclusion that something of spiritual significance happened in October 22, 1844?
Are they all wrong? Do they not "know the scriptures?"
@@Nuteena_Haystack Correction, you now have 8 up-votes. 👍😎
@Nuteena_Haystack Goodmorning morning nuteena, and greetings to u and your family.
Am so glad you respond, and ask questions, you see, there's so many things one can say what regards to this 1844 scenario if they do not understand/ and have the right interpretation of the scriptures, first let me say this, we were told by the prophet Isaiah in Isaiah chapter 8 verse 20 ,TO the law which is the ten commandments and to the testimony which is the writings of the prophets, testimony both old and new testament, if they who teach and preach do not teach and preach concerning upholding law and prophets writings, it is because there is no light in them.
If I write too long, is because I want to be clear.
Have you ever taken the time to truthfully study these things that you add the rest don't hold to thus view,as u put it?
Question, Doesn't the Bible says the time has come for judgment to begin at God's house? 1st Peter chapter 4 verse 17 didn't God said he will appoint a day, in which he will judge the earth? And so many more scriptures that speak of the judgment, Jesus himself tell us that he is coming with his reward to give unto the righteous.
We do not have to maintain and defend any doctrine which is a lie, the truth can stand on its own naked, true Adventist doctrine is biblical, and I said true Adventist, am not talking about the false apostate fall away ones, that give up the truth as it is in Jesus. just ask us to explain and take time to listen and ask questions, any question that comes to your mind with regards to our doctrine can be answered with a thus saith the Lord and is biblical.
You don't have to believe, but if it is true then your salvation depends on it, and you cannot say you don't hear, because the angels that bear records don't tell lies.
Many fall away because of unbelief, they did not enter into his rest.
At the time of the end the vision of Daniel must be understood.
U just don't understand these things/ the scriptures, hence you don't not know the time you're living in, " and what must be" as the disciples aak Jesus.
@Nuteena_Haystack thise six up votes are unlearned, they too need to listen to the truth and do a thorough Bible study.
I love it Big HEART ❤️. To fear God is the beginning of righteousness.

HAPPY SABBATH ALL MY FRIENDS
Wonderfully explained. I understand much better.
Happy Sabbath Amen I am watching from pohni fsm today is Sabbath 5/04/2024
Lovely song
Nothing is for certain
As we travel our own way
There's little indication
As to what we'll face each day
Our portion lies before us
Our yesterday's are gone
With a changing world around us
We face a dark unknown
So do not stop to reason
Of what is yet to be
For we can't loose the bonds
Of that we cannot see
But here today why do we stand alone, So blind and insecure?
When others who we do not know
Are living the greater fear.
31 mins … still waiting for what happened in 1844 …
Kudos for having the integrity to leave comments open. I believe Miller was wrong in his basic premise, as are all who attempt to set dates. I believe that no amount of spin can alter this fact.
Everyone, every group, insists that every other group is outside of the real truth. All i can say for sure is that we'll all know soon enough. Let God be true, and every man a liar.
Amen!! All of these churches have proven themselves to be false churches.
Or, you could compare notes from Scripture? As far as Miller is concerned playing Monday morning quarterback is easy.
If there was no great disappointment, there would be no Revelation chapter 10 verse 11
But people do ask that this scripture be explained.
Beautiful sermon, Amen
Thank you for such a blessing, Pastor Dough
Glory to Jesus
Happy sabbath everybody God bless you all and your family's 🙏 😊
I am a Christian and i have a lot of respect for SDA teaching and seriously considering SDA teaching on the Sabbath . that being said, I would take great pause with regard to replacement theology: the Gentile believers have been grafted into the Olive Tree; it is clear that God is using Israel in these last times. in 1948, the world saw a miracle no less significant and awe inspiring than the Exodus, yet, No One in the 19th century would have thot it possible. God accomplishes all He sets out to do fear of WW3 aside; that would not start until HE alone wills it! a remnant will be saved outta Israel and they will foresake their lamb sacrifices and recognize the One True Lamb sacrifice for sins. i mean this statement with all due respect.
The father is giving you the knowledge of his Sabbath you are blessed!!
You do not want to hear the lord say away from me I never new you. You who does iniquity. That means one who does not keep the law which is the ten commandments
You can Google what a doer of iniquity is
The father is calling to you Michael
What a honor for you!!
He cleanses both His people and the the Heavenly sanctuary ( Heb 9:22-28)

He says what happened in 1844 not one thing. Except people being deceived
I am a sda and I enjoying the word 8:26
Sabbath is for mankind
Yes Sabbath is for mankind but the Sabbath that SDA is keeping don't benefits man because it doesn't give man liberal to rest and work and worship when he chose

"The Great Controversy"
Page 326
"Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy Holy City. . . . Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for Himself. . . . And He shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week He shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease."
The angel had been sent to Daniel for the express purpose of explaining to him the point which he had failed to understand in the vision of the eighth chapter, the statement relative to time--"unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." After bidding Daniel "understand the matter, and consider the vision," the very first words of the angel are: "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy Holy City." The word here translated "determined" literally signifies "cut off." Seventy weeks, representing 490 years, are declared by the angel to be cut off, as specially pertaining to the Jews. But from what were they cut off? As the2300 days was the only period of time mentioned in chapter 8, it must be the period from which the seventy weeks were cut off; the seventy weeks must therefore be a part of the 2300 days, and the two periods must begin together. The seventy weeks were declared by the angel to date from the going forth of the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem. If the date of this commandment could be found, then the starting point for the great period of the 2300 days would be ascertained.
In the seventh chapter of Ezra the decree is found. Verses 12-26. In its completest form it was issued by Artaxerxes, king of Persia, 457 B.C. But in Ezra 6:14 the house of the Lord at Jerusalem is said to have been built "according to the commandment ["decree," margin] of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia." These three kings, in originating, reaffirming, and completing the decree, brought it to the perfection required by the prophecy to mark the beginning of the 2300 years. Taking 457 B.C., the time when the decree was completed, as the date of the commandment, every specification of the prophecy concerning the seventy weeks was seen to have been fulfilled.
"From the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks"--namely, sixty-nine weeks, or 483 years. The decree of Artaxerxes went into effect in the autumn of 457 B.C. From this date, 483 years extend to the autumn of A.D. 27. (See Appendix.) At that time this prophecy was fulfilled. The word "Messiah" signifies "the Anointed One." In the autumn of A.D. 27 Christ was baptized by John and received the anointing of the Spirit. The apostle Peter testifies that "God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power." Acts 10:38. And the Saviour Himself declared: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor." Luke 4:18. After His baptism He went into Galilee, "preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, The time is fulfilled." Mark 1:14, 15.
"And He shall confirm the covenant with many for one week." The "week" here brought to view is the last one of the seventy; it is the last seven years of the period allotted especially to the Jews. During this time, extending from A.D. 27 to A.D. 34, Christ, at first in person and afterward by His disciples, extended the gospel invitation especially to the Jews. As the apostles went forth with the good tidings of the kingdom, the Saviour's direction was: "Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." Matthew 10:5, 6.
"In the midst of the week He shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease." In A.D. 31, three and a half years after His baptism, our Lord was crucified. With the great sacrifice offered upon Calvary, ended that system of offerings which for four thousand years had pointed forward to the Lamb of God. Type had met antitype, and all the sacrifices and oblations of the ceremonial system were there to cease.
The seventy weeks, or 490 years, especially allotted to the Jews, ended, as we have seen, in A.D. 34. At that time, through the action of the Jewish Sanhedrin, the nation sealed its rejection of the gospel by the martyrdom of Stephen and the persecution of the followers of Christ. Then the message of salvation, no longer restricted to the chosen people, was given to the world. The disciples, forced by persecution to flee from Jerusalem, "went everywhere preaching the word." "Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them." Peter, divinely guided, opened the gospel to the centurion of Caesarea, the God-fearing Cornelius; and the ardent Paul, won to the faith of Christ, was commissioned to carry the glad tidings "far hence unto the Gentiles." Acts 8:4, 5; 22:21.
Thus far every specification of the prophecies is strikingly fulfilled, and the beginning of the seventy weeks is fixed beyond question at 457 B.C., and their expiration in A.D. 34. From this data there is no difficulty in finding the termination of the 2300 days. The seventy weeks--490 days--having been cut off from the 2300, there were 1810 days remaining. After the end of 490 days, the 1810 days were still to be fulfilled. From A.D. 34, 1810 years extend to 1844. Consequently the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14 terminate in 1844. At the expiration of this great prophetic period, upon the testimony of the angel of God, "the sanctuary shall be cleansed." Thus the time of the cleansing of the sanctuary--which was almost universally believed to take place at the second advent-was definitely pointed out.
Miller and his associates at first believed that the 2300 days would terminate in the spring of 1844, whereas the prophecy points to the autumn of that year. (See Appendix.) The misapprehension of this point brought disappointment and perplexity to those who had fixed upon the earlier date as the time of the Lord's coming. But this did not in the least affect the strength of the argument showing that the 2300 days terminated in the year 1844, and that the great event represented by the cleansing of the sanctuary must then take place.”
[Citation: Prophetic Dates.--According to Jewish reckoning the fifth month (Ab) of the seventh year of Artaxerxes' reign was from July 23 to August 21, 457 B.C. After Ezra's arrival in Jerusalem in the autumn of the year, the decree of the king went into effect. For the certainty of the date 457 B.C. being the seventh year of Artaxerxes, see S. H. Horn and L. H. Wood, The Chronology of Ezra 7 (Washington, D. C.: Review and Herald Publishing Assn., 1953); E. G. Kraeling, The Brooklyn Museum Aramaic Papyri (New Haven or London, 1953), pp. 191-193; The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary (Washington, D.C.: Review and Herald PublishingAssn., 1954), vol. 3, pp. 97-110]

Children are so innocent, Satan has been going at it full time in undermining the crucial time with God of our youths, pray for your people may God bless you
that guy has a great voice
Don't know if you are old enough to remember but his speaking voice reminds me a lot of Bing Crosby. Me? I've got a weak voice, and yes, I'm jealous.
I agree, and not only that his voice is pleasant, but his preaching is done without the shouting and theatrics/drama that accompany many other pastors of today. Information is clear and well presented - I really appreciate that
The book of Daniel has several verses that state the end will come at the appointed time. It speaks of the time of the end, the appointed time of the end, the time of wrath. Paul writes in Acts, For He (the Father) has SET a day when He will judge the world with justice. Jesus also said to the apostles, “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father HAS SET by His own authority.” (Acts 1:7). Why does the Adventist Church teach Jesus will not return until the church is ready? I do not believe that is Biblical. Can you please comment?
The SDA like many other churches of this world teach things that are not found in the scriptures. This is how we know they are not truly teaching the word of God. Satan has built his own churches and has deceived many.
Oh, I see what you're saying...
I guess when, "all tribes and tongues" have heard the word he'll Rapture us. The Adventists will know their work is done upon his return.
Just subtract 457 from 2300. A true prophet never lies. Everything they believe hangs on that equation. That does not come out in the fall of 1844!
Why does a church that teaches the U.S. is the 2nd beast of Revelation 13 form a 501C3 with the beast?
Apparently the dome of the rock is not built on the spot where the temple was. The spot is by the brook.

In 2022, 1949’s calendar will be repeated. The Los Angeles tent revivals happened that year. This is prophetic. It was the year following the rebirth of the nation of Israel. The Temple was being rebuilt in the United States. Get the book, California of the South - lots of info of the history.
Hi
Can you say more about this please?
@@brianplassan2793 look at the Azusa Street Revival and the 1949 Los Angeles Street revivals - I just believe there will be another great move of God in the United States. Revival has come to America.
What on earth?.. haha!! I get it! ;) You mean what in heaven??.. haha!! Amazing and powerful presentation by the way!
What’s the name of that hymn?
Is there a handout for today's presentation?
Really just teaching. Real preachers don't watch the clock - as closely.
So lovely song whu vrote it ?????
Pastor Doug, it does not matter what you believe, but it matters what is written! How about the temple of Ezekiel what is being detailed in chapter 40-44, and what has never been built yet? It is a great shortsightedness when one cannot even imagine a temple functioning in the Christian dispensation without the sacrificial system of animals. How about the type which was shown to Moses, the one installed in heaven? Is there any animal sacrifice being done there? Then why one assumes that, here on earth, there can be no temple perfectly functional even without sacrificing animals???
Where can I study the adventist teology to keep the Sabbath..? I am in east Indonesia(Sumba Island)

Hello pastor Dough Batchelor. I had to stop the video when you mention the Codex-Sinaiticus. I was hoping you’d shed some light on the errors on those manuscripts and how Wescott and Hort found those manuscripts in a waste basket in the Roman Catholic monastery. I’m not sure if you spoke highly of the Codex-Sinaiticus. It seemed that way to me but I’d like to ask and not assume. In my research on this subject I’ve found that those men did the devils work in trying to distort God’s word. I’d like to know what are your thoughts on this matter. May the peace and grace of Jesus Christ be with you dear pastor Dough Batchelor❤
Nothing happened. There saved you an hour of your time.
HAHAHA Wish you told me that before I spent 35 years in this ridiculous cult. - Blessings brother, indeed it was just a face saving attempt when their ridiculous predictions came to nothing.
@@troywest Unfortunately they are the closest to the truth I've found. The SDA's biggest problem is Ellen whitism which corrupts their view of scriptures and prophecy. I still go to the SDA church but I don't consider myself one anymore but at least we agree on core issues like the law and Jesus being the way the truth and the life.
Keep strong. Dont forget that despite the evil in this world, God is full of justice, mercy and love.
Justice said we broke His perfect law - causing the world's previous perfection to be destroyed - and therefore we deserve Hell (like a punishment in any legal system but this is eternal as His perfect law is eternal too). Don't think you fit in that category? Ever done one of these?: lying, stealing - regardless of how small the object EVER, hating others - which is murder in God's perfect law, lusting (plus God sees our entire thought life). Justice says "the soul that sins shall die".
BUT, mercy said "I dont want to give them what they deserve. I don't want them to be cut off from Me. I love them despite all they have done/will do against Me. I want to give My children another chance. I want them to come home and live in My love again".
And love said "Jesus, God's Son, came down as a Man, our representative, suffering every temptation, pain and struggle we have ever faced, yet without sin. He took all our sins (past/present/ even future) to the cross and then crucified EVERY ONE on our behalf. Justice was paid on the cross so that we can be free from Hell's punishment, experience Gods mercy of forgiveness of sin and live in His love. If we turn from the sins we have committed and repent (turn away from our sin and pursue the opposite direction of love through Christ) He will, overtime, recreate us back into that previously perfect image through The Holy Spirit which Jesus sends to all who accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior of their life.
He is in Heaven right now preparing a place for us so that He can take His faithful, believing children home with Him when He returns. He will ressurrect us from death when He returns, giving mercy to those who accept His love, instruction and teachings in their life, and give justice to those who refuse it.
He doesn't want ANY of us to go to Hell and die for continuing in evil and rejecting His way to life, thats why He died FOR us. He wants us to be His and begin to follow His life of love and service through Him (not ourselves as it's impossible without depending on His power and instruction). So long as we keep our hearts near to Christ through His strength, strive to obey His will of perfect love revealed in the Bible, and ask Him to help us in the midst of (very certain) pitfalls and struggles, we will, in time, win the victory over sin, pain and DEATH through Christ. Even if you are willing to be made willing, or struggling or doubtful, simply be honest and tell Him that. He is not intimidated by ANY sin or struggle you are facing. ANY. He hears and will answer. If we pray for Him to come in, regardless of the condition, then He will.
NOTE: You are NEVER too sinful or messed up that God cannot turn your life around through Jesus. EVER.
If you have any questions let me know xx
