Program Goal: To encourage the members of the Sabbath School, and the church in general, to be more welcoming and embracing of the new members, the seekers of truth, as well as those members who left the church for one reason or another.
Hotels are ranked by stars! So, you can have a 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, or even a 1–star hotel. Adventist members are also sometimes ranked — by generations. In the church, we can have a first– generation Adventist, a second–generation Adventist, and so forth. Apparently, the more
Adventist generations you have, the more privileged you are, aren’t you? I tend to believe that such attitudes contribute much to losing some of our church members or even hindering people who may be interested in joining our church from doing so. Let’s remind ourselves that we are all one in Christ. “For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others”
(Romans 12:3–5, NIV).

The person who gets money dishonestly is like a bird that hatches eggs it didn’t lay. In the prime of life he will lose his riches, and in the end he is nothing but a fool.
2. Proverbs 20:17

Verse 10: For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, in their eagerness to get rich, have wandered away from the faith and caused themselves a lot of pain.
7. Micah 2:1-3
Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds! At morning’s light they carry it out because it is in their power to do it. They covet fields and seize them, and houses, and take them. They defraud people of their homes, they rob them of their inheritance. Therefore, the LORD says: “I am planning disaster against this people, from which you cannot save yourselves. You will no longer walk proudly, for it will be a time of calamity.

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
13. Proverbs 22:16-17
One who oppresses the poor to increase his wealth and one who gives gifts to the rich–both come to poverty. Pay attention and turn your ear to the sayings of the wise; apply your heart to what I teach, for it is pleasing when you keep them in your heart and have all of them ready on your lips.
14. Proverbs 21:5-6
The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty. A fortune made by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor and a deadly snare. The violence of the wicked will drag them away, for they refuse to do what is right.

You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.
