 Dear Friend of Secrets Unsealed,

Another year is almost over and as I look back I can’t help

but praise the Lord for His bountiful blessings. Truly God
has blessed Secrets Unsealed this year. We have produced
two major series. The first is composed of 32 studies on the
Hebrew Sanctuary services titled His Way Is In The Sanctu-
ary. The second was produced just recently in Spanish and
is titled “El Poder Oculto de la Música” (The Hidden Power
of Music). This eight lecture series was presented by Oliver
Coronado, a Venezuelan musician who for many years was involved in the secular music
scene but has had a remarkable conversion experience. This Spanish series should be
available in the next couple of months and is the best I have ever heard on the hidden
dangers of contemporary Christian music.
This year we have also been able to find a facility to permanently locate Secrets Unsealed.
We have sought the Lord in prayer at each step of the way and He has clearly invited us
to enter each open door. We are now in the process of fundraising and we want to thank
all of those who have generously supported this project. We still have a ways to go in our
fundraising but we are certain that the Lord will impress hearts to invest in this ministry
which is committed to preaching God’s present truth message to the church and the
world.
Thanks once again for your financial support and please remember to keep us on your
permanent prayer list for we are keenly aware that the work will not be accomplished by
might nor by power but by God’s Spirit.

Yours in the Blessed Hope,

Pastor Stephen Bohr,

Speaker/Director

Quality Time in
the Rat Race
“I work at Prayz FM which is a
church owned and operated radio
station. Every week day we air Pas-
tor Bohr’s sermons.
Yesterday someone called to get
information on what we had just
aired, Quality Time in the Rat Race.
He is the most popular speak-
er on our station. Persons have
stopped tuning into secular sta-
tions simply to hear him speak.
Plus a member is sponsoring his
videos on a local TV station here.
It has caused some ripples.
Thank Pastor Bohr for his min-
istry and obedience to God. He has
been a personal blessing. Continue

And the churches were warned! Ellen
White described the great revival that she
personally participated in along with her
family:
“Like a tidal wave the movement swept
over the land. From city to city, from village
to village, and into remote country places it
went, until the waiting people of God were
fully aroused. Fanaticism disappeared be-
fore this proclamation like early frost before
the rising sun. Believers saw their doubt
and perplexity removed, and hope and
courage animated their hearts.” The Great
Controversy, p. 400
And what gave impetus to the move-
ment? The answer is simple: As the disci-
ples had studied Bible prophecy before the
day of Pentecost and had discovered their
message and mission, so the Millerites
studied the prophecies of Daniel and Rev-
elation connected with the sanctuary and
found that these gave them their message
and mission. Knowing where they were in
the flow of prophetic history and what was
about to occur next brought about a great
religious revival which, according to Ellen
White, was one of the greatest since apos-
tolic times. As had happened in the after-
math of the Day of Pentecost, thousands
upon thousands embraced the truth and
88
in turn preached the message to others.
Change of Life
The revival was not based on a momen-
tary and temporary emotional feeling.
The message radically transformed their
lifestyle. That is to say, true revival led to
reformation in the lifestyle.
Miller and his associates called upon
people to repent, confess their sins, clean
up their lives, study their Bibles, pray
without ceasing pay off their debts, make
things right with others and invest their
resources in the work. This is precisely
what the apostles had done in the Upper
Room in the ten days that transpired be-
fore the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on
the Day of Pentecost.
And people listened. They prayed all
night. They studied their Bibles such as
never before. They paid their own debts
and the debts of others. They confessed
their sins one to another and made things
right. They invested their all—time, tal-
ents, energy and money—in the proclama-
tion of the soon coming judgment. Some
of them even left their potatoes un-har-
vested in their fields.
According to Ellen White this was one
of the greatest religious movements since
apostolic times:
“Of all the great religious movements
since the days of the apostles, none have
been more free from human imperfection
and the wiles of Satan than was that of the
autumn of 1844. Even now, after the lapse
of many years, all who shared in that move-
ment and who have stood firm upon the would embrace his message

the church.
Those who are living upon the earth
when the intercession of Christ shall cease
in the sanctuary above are to stand in the
sight of a holy God without a mediator.
Their robes must be spotless, their charac-
ters must be purified from sin by the blood
of sprinkling. Through the grace of God
and their own diligent effort they must be
conquerors in the battle with evil. While
the investigative judgment is going forward
in heaven, while the sins of penitent believ-
ers are being removed from the sanctuary,
there is to be a special work of purification,
of putting away of sin, among God’s peo-
ple upon earth. This work is more clearly
presented in the messages of Revelation
14. When this work shall have been ac-
complished, the followers of Christ will be
ready for His appearing.” The Great Con-
troversy, p. 424, 425
Message Rejected
In the aftermath of 1844, the entire
Christian world rejected the message of the
heavenly judgment. Because they failed to
enter the most holy place with Jesus, they
rejected the life and death truths that are
revealed there: the law, the Sabbath, the
state of the dead, immortality only in
Christ and the cleansing of the sanctuary.
Those who would stand firm in the crisis
ahead must know these things. These are
the very truths which the Seventh-day
Adventist Church should proclaim to the
world—this is Present Truth!
Wilderness of
Uncertainty
Yet our beloved church has been in the
wilderness of uncertainty for many years.
It seems that we have forgotten why God
called us into existence. We have gone
astray from our prophetic roots and thus
have a blurred notion of our message and
mission. We have become evangelical in
our worship styles and our evangelistic
methods and message. We must recover
the clarity of our message and mission and
this can be accomplished only by an inten-
sive study of Bible prophecy which reveals
to us where we are in the flow of prophetic
time and the urgency of proclaiming Pres-
ent Truth to the world!
Praise the Lord that God has promised
that before the close of probation, God’s
people will once again recover their pro-
phetic roots and experience the greatest
revival in human history which will shake
up the world and prepare a people for the
coming of Jesus. In our last article in this
series we will take a look at this future re-
vival.
Pastor Stephen Bohr
1111
 By Justin Torossian
“Another ‘D’ on my test …
this is the last thing I need!” Angel thought
to himself as the teacher returned his test.
Struggling in school had become the norm
for this 10th-grader at Antillean Adventist
University, and he’d had enough. Ap-
proaching his teacher after class he asked
the million dollar question. “What can I
do to raise my grades?” What Angel was
about to hear he would never forget. “Be-
fore studying for any other class, study
your Bible.” Study his Bible?! As it was An-
gel hardly had time for his loads of home-
work. “But … how can I do that? I’m try-
ing to keep afloat in all my other classes!”
12
Angel answered back incredulously. Little
did Angel know, his teacher knew a secret
that he was letting him in on.
In Amos 3:7 the Bible says, “Surely the
Lord God will do nothing unless He reveals
His secrets to His servants the prophets.”
While men and women of God all through
time have understood this principle, this
powerful secret was made incredibly clear
in the year 1892, with the publication of a
little book called Steps to Christ. On page
90 it says,
“There is nothing more calculated to
strengthen the intellect than the study of
the Scriptures. No other book is so potent
to elevate the thoughts, to give vigor to the
faculties, as the broad, ennobling truths of
the Bible. If God’s word were studied as it
should be, men would have a breadth of
mind, a nobility of character, and a stabil-
ity of purpose rarely seen in these times.”
Wow, now that’s what Angel needed!
He decided that he would take his teachers
advice, starting his study period with the
Bible and then progressing from the most
to least difficult subjects. In spite of fear of
having a lack of time, Angel also took the
Spirit of Prophecy based advice of getting
a job. What he soon began experiencing
was shocking.
Even with less time than before, Angel’s
grades began to rise! His grades began
changing from barely passing to far above
average, ending the semester with five ‘A’s
and two ‘B’s. His experience is proof of the
words of God’s messenger that nothing can
strengthen our intellect like the study of the
Bible, and that fact is just as true today.
Now you may be thinking to yourself,
“Yes, I’ve found the secret to success! I just
need to read the Bible before I start my
homework and my grade will automati-
cally go up!” Not so fast! Picking up our
Bibles and reading it through as we would
a road sign or news article can’t cut it. In
Steps to Christ, page 90 we find this real-
ity also made clear; “We cannot obtain
wisdom without earnest and prayerful at-
tention and prayerful study.” So remember,
don’t just read, but study your Bible! You
may ask, “Well, what is the difference?”
The passage goes on to give three specific
ways to dig deep into your Bible and in-
crease your intelligence:
1 “Scripture must be compared with
scripture.” As you read new texts
in the Bible, other verses you are more
familiar with will come to mind. This
method of Bible study that God instructs
us to use in Isaiah 28:10 will make you a
well-rounded, balanced Bible student. As
you study, the Holy Spirit will help you
make connections between Bible passag-
es and principles, and soon your study
time will be a blast!
2
“There must be careful research …”
Whether it’s grappling with difficult
Bible verses, studying out two verses that
contradict at first glance, or seeking out
the deeper meanings of Jesus’ parables,
studying the Bible will stretch, challenge,
and grow your intellect like nothing else
on earth. But it is beyond just an intellec-
tual workout, the Bible is the living word
of God. While it strengthens our mind,
it is equally important that it softens our
heart, enabling Christ to mold us and
shape us into His image.
3 “And prayerful reflection.” Take time
to seek God in prayer in asking how
what you have learned applies to your
life. Reflect upon the principles He is
teaching you. Ask yourself how they
would look in action, how you can prac-
tically live them out. Prayerfully ask the
Lord to reveal to you things in your life
that are not in harmony with His will,
and then ask for Christ’s power to live up
to His high and holy standard.

After claiming God’s promises and ap-
plying these study principles we can rest
assured that this simple and profound
promise is to us. “And such study will be
richly repaid” (SC, pg. 90). How true! An-
gel’s story did not end with those five ‘A’s
and two ‘B’s at the end of the term. “Af-

Anxiety is a natural response
to a threatening situation. The sympathet-
ic nervous system becomes quite active.
This is a network of nerves that can speed
up the heart, raise the blood pressure, the
brain becomes more alert, active and fo-
cused, and muscle fibers become tenser
ready to fire into action. It stimulates
the adrenal gland that releases not only
adrenalin but also dozens of other mes-
senger molecules into the blood. As they
circulate through your body they further
extend and prolong your response to the
threat. Your glucose and triglyceride levels
shoot up providing fuel for whatever ac-
tion you might need to take. Blood cap-
illaries in the skin shut down to prevent
bleeding from any lacerations or abrasions
you might sustain. Blood to the stomach
and other digestive organs is shut off and
sent instead to your major muscle groups
— you can digest your meal later — now is
the time for action.
But all of this nervous activity can ac-
celerate into a full-blown panic attack as
well. Profuse sweating, severe chest pains,
or the brain circuits can become overload-
ed and paralyzed with fear. The beneficial
responses have morphed into a painful
and dysfunctional mess. Every shift I work
in the ER will present me with at least a
couple of patients who are there because of
symptoms of a panic attack of some kind.
But if you are anxious and worried
when there is no real threat or if you regu-
larly are responding disproportionally to
minimal or imaginary threats — especial-
ly to the point where you can’t function
normally, then you have a clinical anxiety
disorder. About 40 million Americans
(about 18% of the population) suffer from
some degree of an anxiety disorder. And
almost all of us have some varying degree
of anxiety that affects us in a negative way
from time to time.
When a patient shows up in the ER with
a panic attack the frontline pharmacologic
treatment is the benzodiazepines (Valium,
Ativan, Xanax), powerful drugs that are
very effective in shutting down the neural
networks of anxiety and fear. But if used
on a regular basis these drugs are very ad-
dicting with a withdrawal syndrome that
is much worse than for opiates like mor-
phine or heroin.
Another medication we sometimes use
is called a beta-blocker. This class of medi-
cations blocks the receptors for adrenalin
(epinephrine and norepinephrine) thus
blocking the sympathetic nervous system
which is what has become over activated
in anxiety attacks and disorders.
The psychiatrist’s medications of choice
for treating the various anxiety disorders
are the SSRIs (Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, etc.)
these drugs strengthen the neural circuits
of calmness, peacefulness and that every-
thing is OK feeling. They are also used ex-
tensively as antidepressants. But, as any of
you who are on these medications know,
they also affect many other neural circuits
in the brain as well producing many side
effects. Discontinuing these medications
once your body has become accustomed
to them can also be quite difficult.
But medical scientists are now confirm-
ing with multiple studies that there is an-
other powerful agent available for treating
anxiety, panic, and anxiety disorders. This
agent is Physical Exercise. In comparison
studies it has been shown to be as powerful
and effective as any of the pharmacologi-
cal agents we are currently using without
any of the negative side effects.
17
17

Most of us intuitively know that if we
are stressed out or upset we can go for a
walk or go running or workout at the gym
and afterwards the anxiety symptoms
seem to just melt away. But now, thera-
pists are starting to learn that they can use
exercise either alone or in combination
with medications and or cognitive behav-
ioral therapy and it will reliably produce
excellent results. One woman who’s life
was completely paralyzed by her anxiety
attacks started jumping rope every time
she felt one coming one and it not only re-
lieved it as effectively as if she had taken an
Ativan but over several years time it signif-
icantly decreased the attacks to the point
where she could lead a fairly normal life.
We now understand some of the mech-
anisms whereby exercise exerts such a
powerful effect upon the brain:
18
18
Aerobic exercise has the
effect of putting the brakes
on the whole anxiety
response system.
Exercise
One of the mechanisms has to do with
a substance called GABA (gammaamnio-
butyric acid). This is a neurotransmitter
produced in the brain that causes a relax-
ing calming effect the opposite of anxiety.
Our powerful benzodiazepines like Ati-
van work by binding to the GABA recep-
tors in the brain. But with exercise there
is a natural surge of GABA producing the
same powerful calming effect without any
of the side effects. So next time instead of
an Ativan, go for a run or swim a few laps.
With aerobic exercise another factor
comes into play. When the heart is beating
hard, its cells make and release a molecule
called ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide).
This ANP molecule from the heart passes
though the blood stream to the brain and
crosses the blood brain barrier and goes
directly to special receptors in the hypo-
thalamus. There, it slows down the release
of CRF, which has the job of accelerat-
ing the release of stress hormones from
the adrenal glands that are responsible
for producing many of the symptoms of
anxiety — thus it has the effect of putting
the brakes on the whole anxiety response
system. In studies, giving an injection of
ANP to people having a panic attack pro-
duced a powerful calming effect. We also
know that ANP slows down the sympa-
thetic nervous system significantly reduc-
ing the flow of epinephrine in the body
and reducing the heart rate.
ANP also reduces cortisol (a major
stress hormone) in the blood. Did you
know that pregnant women naturally tri-
ple their levels of ANP during pregnancy?
Apparently God designed this to protect
the sensitive developing brain of the baby
from the damaging effects of too much
cortisol. People with a damaged heart in
congestive heart failure produce very high
levels of ANP, which can reduce the stress
of epinephrine and cortisol on the already
weakened heart — God knew that a dam-
aged heart needed as much rest as possible.
Exercise increases Serotonin levels in
the brain. Serotonin works at many syn-
apses in the anxiety circuits of the brain
by producing calming, peaceful, relax-
ing feelings instead of the fearful anxiety
moods. The SSRI drugs we talked about
work by increasing serotonin in the brain
— but they do it all over producing many
side effects while exercise produces it only
where it is needed for the calming anti-
anxiety effects.
Exercise also decreases muscle tone —
thus relaxing the muscles. People with
anxiety have overactive electrical activity
in their muscle fibers — muscle tension.
This tension can produce further feelings
of anxiety as well as tension headaches.
But like the beta-blocker drugs, exercise
can have a tranquilizing effect on muscle
tension.
Exercise stimulates the sympathetic
nervous system in a good way allowing the
brain to learn an alternative pathway re-
sponse so that it does not have to associate
increased heart rate etc. with fear. Thus we
can learn new positive responses to replace
the old panic associations. And remember
BDNF (Miracle-grow for the brain) we
wrote about in a previous article? Well the
increase of BDNF with exercise makes it
much easier to grow new synapses so we
can learn the new healthy responses to re-
place the old anxiety responses.
So if you suffer from a little anxiety at
times or have a serious and debilitating
anxiety disorder remember that exercise is
one of the most powerful drugs you can

Jewelry In The Seventh-day Adventist Church, Why?
Charles E. Creech. Why is there so much jewelry wearing and outward
adornment among Seventh-day Adventist church members today?
Early in the church’s history, the principle of modesty guided its ad-
herents in the use of jewelry and outward adornment. Adventists were
known by their exemplary modesty. They were different than many
other Christians. They were really God’s “peculiar people.” What has
happened? This book traces the use of jewelry from man’s earliest exis-
tence to how it has become a problem in the Adventist Church.

Mary, the Mother of Jesus
She was a righteous and humble woman, but was she
really immaculately conceived and was she sinless
throughout her life? Is she now there interceding as the
Queen of Heaven with Jesus in our behalf? Is she really
communicating with us today in visions and prophecies?
This sobering Biblical look at Mary, the mother of Jesus,
dispels many of the false traditions circulating about
this remarkable woman. This series is very important for every Christian to watch and be aware of
what is here now and what may soon be coming upon the face of the earth. Satan is out to deceive
the very elect and anyone who is ill-prepared could fall for deception.

 Lesson # 9
(Christ’s Object Lessons 95-102; Matthew 13:33; Leviticus 23:17;
Matthew 16:6, 11-12; Exodus 12:19; 13:7; I Corinthians 5:6-8)

In this lesson we will study what Jesus had to say about leaven. We will find that Jesus
employed this symbol in several different ways.
1) In order for the individual to grow spiritually, the Holy Spirit (symbolized by
leaven) must be implanted in the heart.
2) In order for the church to grow spiritually it must have within it the abiding
presence of the Holy Spirit.
3) Sin (symbolized by leaven) must be expelled from the life.
Note: The book Christ’s Object Lessons will be abbreviated in this study with COL.

1.
First Application: The Internal
Work of Grace in the Heart
According to COL 95, what led Jesus to tell the parable of the leaven?
___________________________________________________________

26
2. How much power does a person have to transform himself? “But man
cannot transform himself by the exercise of his _____________. … The

3.
leaven — something wholly from _____________ must be put into the meal
before the desired ______________ can be wrought in it.” (COL 96)

How can a sinner’s life be truly transformed? “As the leaven, when min-
gled with the meal works from _____________ outward, so it is by the

4.
renewing of the _______________ that the grace of God works to transform
the life.” (COL 97)

Can we change our lives by merely correcting bad habits? “There are
many who try to _____________ by correcting this or that bad habit,

5.
and they hope in this way to become Christians, but they are beginning in the
______________ place. Our first work is with the ____________.” (COL 97)

What is the difference between a “profession of faith” and the “posses-

sion of truth”? “The mere ________________ of truth is not enough.

6.
We may possess this, but the tenor of our thoughts must be changed. The
______________ must be converted and ________________.” (COL 97)

Is mere obligation a correct motivation for obedience to God? “The

man who attempts to keep the commandments of God from a sense of
_______________ merely — because he is ____________ to do so–will never

7.
enter into the ____________ of obedience. He does not ___________ obey. …
True obedience is the _____________ of a principle within.” (COL 97)

What is the essence of all true righteousness? “The essence of all righ-

8.
teousness is ________ to our Redeemer. This will lead us to do right be-
cause it is __________— because right doing is ________ to God.” (COL 97-98)

Jesus once spoke to a great religious leader who was outwardly righteous
but had not been inwardly renewed. Who was this leader and why did
Jesus speak to him as He did? (John 3). _____________________________
__________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________.

27
 9. What similarity is there between the symbol of “wind” in John 3 and
the symbol of “leaven” in Matthew 13:33? Jesus said: “The wind bloweth
where it _____________, and thou hearest the ______________thereof, but
canst not tell whence it cometh and whither it goeth.” (John 3:8). “The leaven
hidden in the flour works ______________ to bring the whole mass under

10.
its leavening process: so the leaven of truth works secretly, ______________,
steadily to transform the soul.” (COL 98)

Why do the lives of Christians so frequently reveal the same evil

traits of character as the worldlings? “The reason is that they are

11.
not ________________. They have not hidden the leaven of truth in the
________________.” (COL 99)

What is the great agency in the transformation of character? “The

______________ are the great agency in the transformation of char-

12.
acter. … If studied and _______________ the word of God works in the heart,
subduing every _______________ attribute.” (COL 100)

What relationship exists between the Holy Spirit and the Word of

13.
God? “The ______________ or the Spirit is the _______________
of God.” (Ephesians 6:17)

How did the Psalmist explain the transforming power of the Word of

14.
God? “Thy word have I hid in mine ____________ that I might not
______________ against Thee.” (Psalm 119:11).

15.
What did Jesus say is the secret of the sanctified life? “Sanctify them
through thy ____________: Thy ___________ is truth.” (John 17:17)

According to Paul, how can the church reach the condition of

not having a spot, wrinkle or any such thing? God cleanses and
sanctifies the church with “the ____________ of the water by the
______________.” (Ephesians 5:26)

28
16. How does the world look upon a person who has
been transformed by the internal work of the Holy
Spirit and why is the world not able to understand such a man?
“The world regards as a _____________ the man who is imbued with this

17.
_______________. … Such a man the world cannot ________________; for
he is keeping in view eternal realities.” (COL 101)

What will be the evidence that the work of grace has transformed the
heart? “The __________________ is changed. Christ abiding in the
heart ______________ out in the faces of those who love Him and keep His
commandments. Truth is written there. The ____________ peace of heaven is
revealed. There is expressed a _______________ gentleness, a ____________
than human love.” (COL 102)

1.
Second Application: The Spiritual
Growth of the Church
In the Parable of the Leaven Jesus said: “The ______________ of heaven

2.
is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and ____________ in three
measures of __________, till the whole [loaf] was leavened.” (Matthew 13:33)

3.
In I Corinthians 10:17 the apostle Paul compared the church to a loaf of
________________.

On the Day of Pentecost, the church was filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts
2:1-4). As a result, three ___________________ persons were added
to the church that day. A few days later five ___________________ persons
were added to the church.
Note: The secret of church growth is not found in gimmicks but rather in the presence of the

4.
Holy Spirit. The church is not to be grown by using external methods which appeal to the
carnal heart. The church is to grow from inside out through the presence of the Holy Spirit.

On the Feast of Pentecost, the bread was to be made with

___________________. (Leviticus 23:17)

29
 Note: As we shall see shortly, on the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the leaven was a symbol of
sin. On the Day of Pentecost, however, the leaven was a symbol of church growth.

1.
Third Application: The Need to
Expel Sin from the Life

2.
In Matthew 6:6, 11-12 Jesus warned His disciples to “beware of the
_____________ of the Pharisees and of the ____________________.”

In Exodus 12:15, 19; 13:7 we are informed that Israel had to expel

3.
every vestige of ______________ from the house before the Feast of
_________________.

According to the apostle Paul, What was symbolized by the leaven?

“Therefore let us keep the feast not with _____________ leaven, neither
with the old leaven of _____________ and _______________; but with the
______________ bread of _____________ and truth.” (I Corinthians 5:8)
Note: It is well known that leavened bread spoils much quicker than unleavened bread.

4.
By the process of fermentation leavened bread becomes moldy and spoils. So it is with the
leaven of sin. When it is present in the life, it corrupts and spoils spiritually.

The unleavened bread of the Passover represented the broken

5.
body of Jesus. We are told concerning Jesus: “in Him [Jesus] is no
______________.” (I John 3:5)

What two things happened with the manna when it was saved from
one day for next? “It bred ______________ and ______________.”

6.
(Exodus 16:20)
Note: Remarkably, these very two things take place when a human body begins to decompose.

When Friday’s manna was saved for Sabbath, what happened?

“And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did
not ____________, neither was there any ___________ therein.”
(Exodus 16:24)

30
7. Who was represented by the manna which came from
heaven? Jesus said: “I am the ____________ of life.
Your fathers did eat ___________ in the wilderness and are

8.
__________. This is the bread which cometh down from _____________,
that a man may eat thereof, and not __________.” (John 6:48-50)

9.
On which day of the week did Jesus die? “And that day was the
_______________ and the Sabbath drew on.” (Luke 23:54)

What marvelous messianic prophecy pointed forward to the rest of

Jesus in the tomb? “Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth:
My ______________ also shall rest in ______________. For thou wilt not

10.
leave my soul [me] in hell [sheol: “the grave”], neither wilt thou suffer thine
Holy One to see _________________.” (Psalm 16:9-10)

When Jesus rested in the tomb on the Sabbath day, did His body
experience corruption? According to Peter on the Day of Pen-
tecost, when Jesus rested in the tomb, God did not allow His body to see
_____________________. (Acts 2:27; see also, Acts 13:34-37).
Note: It becomes very clear that Exodus 16 was a messianic prophecy. As the manna
picked up on Friday did not spoil on the Sabbath, so Jesus died on Friday but his body

11.
saw no corruption on the Sabbath. And the reason why the body of Jesus did not corrupt
is because in Him there was no leaven of sin!!

After asking the Galatians who kept them from obeying the truth
(Galatians 5:7), the apostle Paul warned them: “A little ___________
leaveneth the whole ______________.” (Galatians 5:9).

12.
Note: Here the apostle Paul compares leaven a lump of dough with disobedience in the life of
the Galatians. Cherished sin not only corrupts the person individually but also the church!!

What is the secret of a victorious Christian life? “The

____________ that I speak unto you, they are ______________
and they are ________________.” (John 6:63).

 Media Center Project Update
We would like to thank everyone who has donated towards our much needed facility.
As of this print, we have received $280,000 in restricted funds. We still need to raise 420,000
by end of December in order to make this a cash offer, so as you can see we still have a ways
to go in a very short time before we can purchase the new facility. Yet we still have a ways to
go in a very short time before we can purchase the new facility. There is urgency in that the
seller is wanting us to close escrow by December 31th. We can’t do this without your sacrifical
financial assistance, because we must make this a cash offer and not go into debt. With your
help and prayers, together we can accomplish this project for God’s honor and glory. Please
continue to keep this project in your prayers that funds will flow in this month so we can close
escrow by year end and give God all the honor and glory for what He has done.

New potential facility.

“It is not the plan of God to rain down means from heaven in order that His cause may be
sustained. He has entrusted, or deposited, ample means with men, that there shall be no lack in
any department of His work. He proves those who profess to love Him by placing means in their
hands, and then tries them to see if they love the gift better than the Giver.” Testimonies Volume
2, page 659. Thank you for your faithfulness!

Satellite Evangelism
Every month Secrets Unsealed pays for satellite broadcast time on 3ABN. We know that we are
reaching many avid Bible students from different denominations because we hear from them
often. We need more people to partner with us monthly so we can continue airing God’s last
message to planet earth and grow God’s kingdom.

The Worthy Viewer Fund

We receive requests from prison inmates on a weekly basis, requesting Bible study materials,
books, Bibles, Pastor Bohr’s printed Bible study notes. Because some are able to receive CDs,
and are able to receive DVDs for the prison library so any inmate can view them, we need
regular supporters to enable us to send materials to as many prisons in the USA as possible.
In addition, non-Adventist pastors in country’s where it is impossible to purchase bible study
materials are requesting assistance to receive Pastor Bohr’s materials so they can study for
themselves, and share them with their congregations. We have heard from pastor’s children
who are in prison. We have heard from x-colporteurs who are now in prison. All of which are
watching Pastor Bohr’s presentations from prison. Parents call us requesting we send materi-
als to their children who grew up in the church, who now find themselves in the only place
where God can save them. Your donations towards this fund will help us continue to send
Bible studies to prison inmates, and non-adventist pastors in places where Truth is not easy
access for them.

Prayer
Our website has been under construction for most of the year. We appreciate everyone’s pa-
tience as we strive to complete this project. We are trying to make it more user friendly and
hope to go live by end of December. We humbly ask that you continue to pray for this and all
our projects, and also for Pastor Bohr’s traveling mercies. Because we do believe in the power
of prayer, we also want to hear your prayer request. You can submit your requests online in
our Contact Us section of our website at SecretsUnsealed.org.
