Repentance and Forgiveness

In this week's episode of Sabbath School With Mako, we dive deep into the true meaning of repentance and God's endless grace. We explore the dramatic historical story of the Golden Calf in Exodus, the dangerous trap of self-righteousness, and the breathtaking real-life journey of WWII hero Louis Zamperini. Discover the life-changing difference between carrying the heavy weight of guilt and experiencing a total heart transformation through the Holy Spirit. Key Takeaway: True forgiveness cannot be bought or earned by our good works; it is a free gift waiting to be received at the foot of the cross. Listen now to discover how to trade your heavy burdens for God's perfect peace.

Sin, the Gospel, and the Law

This week let’s explore the reason God gave us His law and, when someone transgresses God’s law and consequently sins, what or who can help to restore their relationship with God. Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, May 30

Having Faith

What does it truly mean to live a life of faith? Is it just a happy feeling, or is it something much deeper? In this week's lesson, we dive into the inspiring life of George Müller, who fed thousands of orphans in the 1800s purely through the power of prayer. We unpack the beautiful biblical definition of faith in Hebrews 11, discovering how true faith anchors our hearts between two massive realities: God's past Creation and the hope of His upcoming Second Advent. We will also explore the comforting truth of righteousness by faith through Abraham, and see how Revelation 14:12 calls us today to perfectly balance keeping the commandments of God with holding onto the precious faith of Jesus. If your faith feels small or you are struggling with hidden doubts, remember that faith is a living seed meant to be grown and exercised like a muscle! Key Takeaway: God does not ask us to perform extraordinary feats to impress Him. He simply asks us to take Him at His word, step out of our comfort zones, and make decisions based on faith instead of fear. Reflection Questions for This Week: 1. When was the last time you took a real "leap of faith" that forced you to rely entirely on God rather than your own control? 2. Are you currently feeding your faith through Scripture, or are you accidentally feeding your doubts by focusing on your fears? Tune in, subscribe, and let’s grow spiritually together!

Practical Prayer

Is Your Prayer Life a Performance or a Conversation? Description: Ever feel like your prayers are just bouncing off the ceiling? This week on Sabbath School With Mako, we dive into "Practical Prayer." We explore why the disciples asked, "Lord, teach us to pray," and how Jesus shifted prayer from hollow rituals to a deep connection with "Our Father". We’ll discuss practical tools like the ACTS and PRAY acronyms to help you structure your time with God. Takeaway: Prayer isn't about looking sincere; it’s about being sincere with a God who cares about every detail of your life.
