Join Edwin M. Cotto from the Advent Defense League as he delivers a powerful message on Christ's investigative judgment of the seven churches in Revelation. This compelling sermon explores how Jesus examines each church not to condemn, but to call believers to repentance and restoration. Through personal testimony and biblical exposition, Pastor Cotto reveals how God's investigation serves to identify and remove the "elephants in the room" - those persistent sins that separate us from Christ. Drawing from Revelation chapters 2-3 and Psalm 139, this message demonstrates that divine judgment begins with mercy, offering hope and transformation to lukewarm Christians. Learn why the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia received no rebuke, while others were called to repent from false doctrines and spiritual compromise. This sermon challenges listeners to overcome besetting sins through daily communion with Christ, preparing for the New Jerusalem where only the purified will dwell. Perfect for Seventh-day Adventists and Christians seeking deeper spiritual growth and biblical understanding of end-time prophecy.

How Christ Examines the 7 Churches for Salvation, Not Condemnation - Edwin M Cotto - GTAN2543

If we’re truly repentant, we stop blaming other people for our sins.

Accepting Responsibility

Repentance is basically a change in behavior, and change can be hard.

Grace to Repent

A True Repenter

If you’re experiencing conviction about some sin, it’s an evidence that God loves you.

Conviction Equals Love

Surah 9: At-Tawbah (The Repentance) - Recited by Ahmed Abdelhamid Tahoun

At-Tawbah is the ninth chapter of the Holy Qur'an, consisting of 129 verses. It is a late Medinan Surah and is unique because it is the only Surah not to begin with "Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim" (In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful). This omission is seen as a sign of the severity and finality of its judgments.

The Surah primarily addresses the issues of broken covenants with polytheists, the exposure of the hypocrites (al-Munafiqun) within the Muslim community, and rules related to military expeditions (Jihad).

Key Themes in Surah At-Tawbah include:

* Divine Ultimatum: The declaration of a clear break from polytheism and idolatry.
* Exposure of Hypocrisy: Detailed revelation of the characteristics and actions of the hypocrites who pretended to be Muslims but worked against the community.
* Call for Repentance: Strong emphasis on sincere repentance (Tawbah) and forgiveness for those believers who faltered but returned to God.
* Significance of Charity (Sadaqat): Clarification on who is entitled to receive charity (Zakat) and its role in purifying wealth.

Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time

The best time to respond to God in repentance is the moment we’re convicted of sin.

Quick Repentance

We invite you, this week, to join us on a sobering journey to the church at Thyatira, where we will see and discover a rather serious message given to the church. Join us as we examine our hearts to see why we need to heed the words of the Lord...

Evaluations: Wake Up! Repent! Stay True! - Revelations 2:18-29

What if the very thing that makes us human—our ability to speak—is also our greatest vulnerability? This week, the teacher in Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 challenges us to reconsider the power and danger of our words. We discover that humans are essentially 'living language,' created in the image of a God who spoke the universe into existence. Yet this divine gift has become corrupted; our words can build up or tear down, heal or wound, unite or divide. The teacher in Ecclesiastes offers us a radical prescription: simplicity. Say less, listen more, and let God be God. We're confronted with the uncomfortable truth that much of our prayer life and religious speech is actually about us—our performance, our image, our control. The passage exposes how we heap up empty phrases, thinking God will be impressed by our verbal gymnastics, when in reality He longs for humble, honest, simple connection. Jesus himself modeled this perfectly, knowing when to speak and when to remain silent, entrusting everything to the Father. The most profound insight? Silence is God's first language. When we create space to listen rather than constantly filling the air with our anxious words, we encounter the gentle whisper of divine presence. This isn't about praying less overall—it's about praying with integrity, where our words align with our hearts and actions. The transformation begins when we stop trying to be our own god and instead rest in the identity Christ has secured for us.

The radio program does so by addressing some particular teaching related to the Sunday Mass Gospel reading, and then offering a detailed commentary on the reading itself.  The apostolate also consists of talks, weekly classes, 
and a blog.  The blog address is:
