====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA II TRIMESTRE DEL 2024Narrado por: Gustavo PérezDesde: Málaga, EspañaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES 11 DE JUNIOIDENTIFIQUEMOS A LA BESTIA - PRIMERA PARTE Apocalipsis 13:1 y 2. ¿De dónde surge esta bestia y quién le da autoridad? El libro de Apocalipsis identifica al dragón principalmente como Satanás. Apocalipsis 12:3 al 5 dice que el dragón intentó destruir, “en cuanto naciera”, al “Hijo varón”, que más adelante fue “arrebatado para Dios y para su trono”. Fue el diablo, mediante la Roma pagana, quien intentó destruir a Cristo (ver Mat. 2:16-18). El archienemigo de Dios y del hombre obra mediante instituciones políticas y religiosas para lograr sus propósitos. Sobre el poder de esta bestia, se nos dice: “el dragón le dio su poder, su trono y gran autoridad” (Apoc. 13:2). Esta profecía se cumplió con precisión cientos de años más tarde, cuando el emperador romano Constantino trasladó su capital de Roma a lo que llegó a llamarse Constantinopla, en la actual Turquía. Esto dejó un vacío de poder en el antiguo trono, o sede, de los césares, la ciudad imperial de Roma. Así, la Roma pagana le dio a la bestia su sede, o capital. Isaac Backus declaró: “Al trasladar la sede del Imperio a Constantinopla, [...] Constantino dio paso a que el obispo de Roma se exaltara a sí mismo por encima de todos los hombres de la Tierra, y por encima del Dios del Cielo” (The Infinite Importance of the Obedience of Faith, and of Separation from the World, p. 16; citado en LeRoy Edwin Froom, The Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers, t. 3, p. 213). Según Thomas Hobbes, “el papado no es otra cosa que el fantasma del difunto Imperio Romano que, coronado, se sienta sobre su tumba” (Leviathan [Nueva York: Oxford University Press, 1996], p. 386). Un análisis cuidadoso revela que la bestia que sube del mar, de Apocalipsis 13, es un poder religioso apóstataque surge de Roma y se convierte en un sistema mundial de adoración (Apoc. 13:3, 4). Esta bestia no es una persona; es una organización religiosa que ha sustituido la verdad de la Palabra de Dios por decretos humanos. Lee Apocalipsis 13:1 y 6. ¿Qué palabra clave se utiliza para identificar el poder de la bestia? La Biblia define la blasfemia en Juan 10:33 y Lucas 5:21 con dos ejemplos: (1) un hombre que pretende ser Dios o dice ser Dios, y (2) un hombre que dice tener el poder de perdonar pecados. Estas acusaciones eran injustas porque Jesús es verdaderamente Dios y, por lo tanto, tiene el derecho de perdonar pecados. El papado romano tiene dos doctrinas distintivas que la Biblia llama blasfemia: afirma que sus sacerdotes tienen el poder de perdonar pecados y que el papa tiene las prerrogativas de Dios en la Tierra.

Jackson Women's Health Organization. The ERLC and other pro-life organizations filed an amicus brief in this case urging the Supreme Court to overturn the disatrous Roe v. Wade decision. Members of our team also joined pro-life advocates on the steps of the Supreme Court when oral arguments were heard last December. As we approach the Supreme Court's final decision in June of this year, it's important for Christians to pray for this landmark case and begin preparing our churches to serve vulnerable women and children in a potential post-Roe world. Download our free prayer guide at ERLC.com/Dobbs. That's ERLC.com/Dobbs.Dobbs Resource Page — Many Christians are aware that an important case about abortion is being decided at the Supreme Court this June. But for many, this case is confusing and wrapped in a lot of legal jargon. The ERLC wants to help with that, so we've created a resource page that will help you and your church understand what this case means, what could happen if Roe v. Wade is overturned, and how your church can prepare to serve vulnerable women and children in the aftermath. To learn more about the Dobbs case and how you can pray, visit ERLC.com/Dobbs.

A message adapted from an historic sermon by Rev. Isaac Backus in 1773. Civil rights of conscience in religion must be off limits to government. Church government and civil government should never be mixed, and when it is, the tyranny results in misery.

Brandon O’Brien is the author of Demanding Liberty: An Untold Story of American Religious Freedom. In his book, Brandon unveils the historic struggle of how religious liberty in the United States came to be, following the efforts of Baptist pastor Isaac Backus who strived to secure freedom of religion and conscience for all.
Religious liberty has emerged as a particularly contentious issue in American public discourse, especially in light of President Donald Trump’s nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to succeed Justice Anthony Kennedy on the U.S. Supreme Court. But religious liberty didn’t become controversial overnight. Indeed, if history is any guide, religious liberty has been a controversial issue in the United States since its founding. In today’s episode, Influence magazine executive editor George P. Wood talks to Brandon J. O’Brien about Isaac Backus, a Baptist who led the fight for religious liberty during America’s founding era. Backus’ example is both inspiring and instructive, shedding light on what religious liberty means in a contemporary, pluralist America. O’Brien is director of content and distribution for Redeemer City to City in Manhattan, author of Demanding Liberty, a new biography of Isaac Backus published by InterVarsity Press, and coauthor with E. Randolph Richards of Misreading Scripture with Western Eyesand Paul Behaving Badly.
Our special guest is Dr. Brandon J. O'Brien, author of the book Demanding Liberty: An Untold Story of American Religious Freedom. Religious liberty is one of the most contentious political issues of our time. How should people of faith engage with the public square in a pluralist era? Some citizens hope to reclaim a more Christian vision of national identity, while others resist any religious presence at all. This dispute is not new, and it goes back to the founding era of American history. As the country was being formed, some envisioned a Christian nation where laws would require worship attendance and Sabbath observance. Others advocated for a thoroughly secular society where faith would have no place in public life. But neither extreme won the day, thanks to the unsung efforts of a Connecticut pastor who forged a middle way. Historian Brandon O'Brien unveils an untold story of how religious liberty came to be. Between the Scylla and Charybdis of theocracy and secularism, Baptist pastor Isaac Backus contended for a third way. He worked to secure religious liberty and freedom of conscience for all Americans, not just for one particular denomination or religious tradition. Backus's ideas give us insight into how people of faith navigate political debates and work for the common good. Backus lived in an age of both religious revival and growing secularism, competing forces much like those at work today. The past speaks into the present as we continue to demand liberty and justice for all. Brandon J. O'Brien (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is director of content and distribution for Redeemer City to City in Manhattan. He is coauthor, with E. Randolph Richards, of Misreading Scripture with Western Eyes and Paul Behaving Badly, as well as the author of The Strategically Small Church. Visit his website at: www.brandonjobrien.com
Freedom is not Doomed Modern America doesn't have: a patriot pulpit as did Colonial America.The pulpits of Colonial America were ablaze with the fire of liberty. Colonial clergymen of every Christian denomination explained, extolled, enlightened, expounded, and elucidated the Natural Biblical principles of liberty from their pulpits continuously. Remember that it was mostly the men of Pastor Jonas Clark's congregation at the Church of Lexington that stood armed on Lexington Green against British troops in the wee morning hours of April 19, 1775, and fired the shot heard 'round the world. Historian Gerald Nordskog writes: "As the pastor of the church at Lexington, he typically gave four sermons a week, written out and orally presented--nearly 2200 sermons in his lifetime. His preaching was vigorous in style, instructive in matter, and delivered with uncommon energy and zeal, with an agreeable and powerful voice. His sermons were rarely less than an hour, often more. It can be regarded only as a singularly happy circumstance that, as Lexington was to be the place where resistance to the power of England was first to occur, and the great act of a declaration of war first to be made by the act of the people in the blood to be there shed, making the place forever famous in history, the minister of Lexington should have been a man of the principles, character, courage, and energy of Mr. Clark. And if you think Jonas Clark was the exception to the rule in Colonial America, you haven't studied history. Men such as John Witherspoon, James Caldwell, John Peter Muhlenberg, Joab Houghton, Ebenezer Baldwin, Elisha Williams, Charles Chauncy, Jonathan Mayhew, Isaac Backus, Samuel Sherwood, John Fletcher, John Leland, etc. inspired and instructed Christians of all denominations regarding their duties and responsibilities as free men and women under God--including the duty to free themselves from the yoke of bondage.
