more near students will come back to our chapel
00:03 - 00:06
program center and Character development and for today's topic,
00:06 - 00:10
we're going to watch a video entitled The Beauty of Creation.
00:10 - 00:14
That were presented by the president of the seventh adventist church aspect.
00:14 - 00:17
That Wilson, let's put together our target didn't happen.
00:17 - 00:18
As we listen to this wonderful message.
00:19 - 00:20
U. S. Understandable work
00:20 - 00:22
about the beauty of creation,
00:22 - 00:23
systemic
00:23 - 00:24
uh
00:30 - 00:33
greetings, friends.
00:33 - 00:36
Have you ever stopped a moment to ponder the
00:36 - 00:40
incredible beauty of the words found in Genesis?
00:40 - 00:41
one verse 1
00:42 - 00:47
in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
00:47 - 00:49
How amazing how wonderful.
00:50 - 00:53
But then the second verse tells us more.
00:54 - 00:56
The earth was without form
00:57 - 00:58
and void.
00:58 - 01:02
Now void is an empty space, nothingness.
01:02 - 01:06
How incredible God created the earth, the sky, the sun,
01:07 - 01:09
the moon, the stars and living things
01:10 - 01:12
out of nothing at all.
01:13 - 01:15
What a powerful loving creator God.
01:15 - 01:20
And yet this incredible truth is hardly recognized in the world today.
01:21 - 01:24
The devil has worked hard to obliterate
01:25 - 01:28
the truth we find in God's word
01:28 - 01:31
In John 1 1-5 we read
01:32 - 01:34
in the beginning was the word
01:34 - 01:36
and the word was with God.
01:36 - 01:37
And the word
01:37 - 01:38
was God.
01:38 - 01:40
He was in the beginning
01:40 - 01:40
with God.
01:41 - 01:43
All things were made through him
01:43 - 01:46
and without him, nothing was made
01:46 - 01:47
that was made
01:48 - 01:49
in him was life.
01:49 - 01:53
And the life was the light of men and the light
01:53 - 01:59
shines in the darkness and the darkness did not comprehend it.
02:00 - 02:01
Nevertheless,
02:01 - 02:04
God invites us through his power
02:04 - 02:08
to be lights in the world today to let the world know
02:08 - 02:12
that there is a creator God who made them who loves them,
02:12 - 02:18
who died for them and who is one day soon coming back to redeem his own
02:19 - 02:21
in order to fully understand the creator.
02:21 - 02:25
It is important to be out in nature where we can observe
02:26 - 02:28
and appreciate his creation.
02:29 - 02:33
In the wonderful book, christ's object lessons, we read the following
02:34 - 02:38
through the creation. We are to become acquainted with the creator.
02:39 - 02:42
The book of Nature is a great lesson book
02:42 - 02:46
which in connection with the scriptures we are to
02:46 - 02:50
use in teaching others of his character and guiding
02:50 - 02:53
lost sheep back to the fold of God.
02:53 - 02:56
As the works of God are studied,
02:56 - 03:00
the Holy Spirit flashes conviction into the mind
03:01 - 03:04
in these lessons. Direct from nature.
03:04 - 03:10
There is a simplicity and purity that makes them of the highest value.
03:10 - 03:15
All need the teaching to be derived from this source
03:15 - 03:22
in itself. The beauty of nature leads the soul away from sin and worldly attractions
03:22 - 03:25
and toward purity. Peace
03:25 - 03:25
and God.
03:26 - 03:29
Thus the mental powers will be strengthened
03:29 - 03:31
the character developed
03:31 - 03:33
the whole life
03:33 - 03:34
and no build
03:35 - 03:35
friends.
03:36 - 03:40
This coming sabbath has been designated as Creation Sabbath
03:40 - 03:44
a beautiful time to reflect on the beauty of creation
03:44 - 03:46
and of our creator.
03:47 - 03:49
This worldwide celebration of creation
03:49 - 03:54
is organized by the Geoscience Research Institute,
03:54 - 03:57
an entity of the seventh day adventist church
03:57 - 04:03
that specializes in original research and the study of scientific
04:03 - 04:09
and biblical literature on the website Creation sabbath dot net.
04:10 - 04:14
You will find many wonderful resources to help you celebrate this event.
04:15 - 04:19
And as we close today, I would like to share
04:19 - 04:20
with you
04:20 - 04:23
a short but beautiful video
04:24 - 04:25
from that website
04:25 - 04:26
titled
04:26 - 04:29
God's enduring song of love
04:29 - 04:33
celebrating this special day Creation Sabbath
04:34 - 04:37
May the Lord bless you today and in the coming
04:37 - 04:42
days as you remember that he is our creator,
04:42 - 04:43
Redeemer
04:44 - 04:45
and friends.
04:59 - 04:59
Mhm.
05:00 - 05:00
Mhm.
05:06 - 05:06
Mhm.
05:17 - 05:19
A nightly ritual
05:20 - 05:23
at the close of every day.
05:23 - 05:29
As the setting sun stretches its long amber beams across the rose quartz sky,
05:30 - 05:31
they gather,
05:33 - 05:34
mm hmm.
05:36 - 05:44
Coming together to take to the air in perfect synchronization.
05:44 - 05:47
It's a phenomenon without explanation.
05:48 - 05:51
A mysterious dance of communal praise,
05:51 - 05:55
swirling and diving in a glorious living cloud.
05:55 - 05:59
The natural inclination of the created
05:59 - 06:07
to exalt its creator in movement and song.
06:13 - 06:16
Nature is God's enduring song of love
06:17 - 06:21
and nowhere is his love more beautifully expressed than in mankind.
06:21 - 06:28
The crowning act of Creation, We are God's beautiful and complex divine symphony.
06:28 - 06:36
The climax of his creative artistry as we take in the beauty of the world around us,
06:36 - 06:38
the world he created for her pleasure.
06:38 - 06:49
Our hearts cannot help but be lifted to the creator and praise
06:49 - 06:56
over and over again. He tells us through his created works that he loves us,
06:56 - 06:59
that he desires to commune with us.
06:59 - 07:02
That he will never leave us
07:02 - 07:03
nor forsake us
