Page 13 of 21Hosea 8:4
@@@^“The ‘A Word to the Little Flock,” p. 12, places in post-probationary time ‘the day and night cry’ of the saints, represented by the angel’s cry to Jesus in Revelation 14:14, 15, thus making the saints to cry day and night in a time when they were ‘in the sight of a holy God without an intercessor.’ Speaking of this time, ‘Early Writings,” pp. 280, 281 says, ‘The last tear for sinners had been shed, the last agonizing prayer offered.’
Hosea 8:5
@@@^“There seems to be a contradiction between ‘A Word to the Little Flock’ and ‘Early Writings,” the one’s stating that after the close of probation ‘the saints will cry day and night to Jesus,” and the other’s stating that ‘in that fearful time . . . the saints were living in the sight of a holy God without an intercessor,” thus making it appear that they could not cry to Christ—offer any more prayers for deliverance. Please explain.”
Hosea 12:6

It freely gives its time to minister to those who shall be heirs of salvation, and neither collects fees nor makes charges for its unselfish service; it lives on free-will contributions, burdening none and comforting all. Its constant prayer is that all its readers shall prosper and be in good health even as their souls prospereth. (3 John 2.)

Carmel Center faithfully stand in his lot; that he come behind in no good work; and that he keep apace the scroll’s swiftly unfolding events, and thus make Mt. Carmel a light to the world, we anxiously solicit the constant and earnest prayers of every whole-souled believer in the message of Present Truth.”@3M. J. Bingham, Principal.
Joel 4:6
@@@^“However, because of the Laodicean ways which still cling to us, we are a long way from being as God. But in spite of this fact, we are progressing toward that high standard which the Lord has set for us, and we earnestly solicit your prayers that we might go through the purifying fire, coming out as ‘fine gold’, and having attained that Christian character which will enable us to ‘follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth.’ @3Sarah Bigelow
Joel 5:10
@@@^“Since heeding the eleventh hour call over a year ago, I have been receiving a thorough Christian education in the schools of the prophets which are now being restored, and I cannot express my praise and thanks to God for the privilege which I have in attending Mt. Carmel’s Academy, and for the blessed promises which the young have in the finishing of the gospel. O, would that every young person who reads herein from God His monthly message to His people, join the now mobilizing army of youth which is so soon to go forth in all the world winning precious souls, is my prayer.” @3Eugenia Pinon, age 17
Joel 6:1
@@@^He who was rich, but became poor for our sakes, and Who pleaded with His Father three times that He might be permitted to rescue guilty men from the bondage of sin, and Who entered into solemn covenant that He would take upon Himself all the weaknesses of humanity, knowing that He would be subjected to every kind of temptation, kept His promise, and boldly declares in His last prayer for His disciples, “I have finished the work which thou gavest Me to do.”—Jno. 17:4.
Joel 7:7
@@@^One of the remarkable things to be observed at this place is the cheerful attitude of practically all, both young and old, toward the inconveniences which go with pioneering. In every prayer and testimony, as well as private conversation of those who live at Mt. Carmel, one hears repeated expressions of gratitude for the privilege of being “upon this holy hill.”
Joel 7:10
@@@^We are enjoying our sojourn here, and our earnest desire is that we shall make some small contribution toward the advancement of the work for which Mt. Carmel stands, knowing that from this place there is to go forth literature and workers with the stamp of God’s approval upon the—books and tracts, containing nothing but the truth, and men and women who would rather die than belie their profession—and for this noble service to the church and the world, we join in earnest prayer with the Present Truth believers the world over. @3E. T. W.
Joel 10:2
@@@^“At one of our prayer meetings, we asked two men who had come, what they thought of the SRod. They smiled and said, ‘We have found that there is error in the books, and also that the author started teaching his message as early at 1922, whereas he claims to have started in 1930.’ We asked them to point out to us the error which they had found, and they replied, ‘Volume One of “The Shepherd’s Rod,” p. 24 says that the 144,000 sang the song of Moses and the Lamb, but Volume Two, p. 172 contradicts Volume One, for it says that the 144,000 did not sing the song.’ Please explain this seeming contradiction.”

Amos 3:4
@@@^In fulfillment of the above, and as we are called out to restore every divine institution, we are requested to establish a more perfect organization, with the result that, after many weeks, of earnest prayer and careful research work in the Bible and Testimonies, we are now glad to announce to the readers of the Symbolic Code that the Lord is preparing His army for “the closing work for the church.” Hence, comes to us the prophetic call:
Amos 9:3
@@@^“Whatever may be man’s intellectual advancement, let him not for a moment think that there is no need of thorough and continuous searching of the Scriptures for greater light.”—“Gospel Workers,” p. 300. “When a doctrine is presented that does not meet our minds, we should go to the word of God, seek the Lord in prayer, and give no place for the enemy to come in with suspicion and prejudice.”—Id., p. 301. “To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” (Isa. 8:20.) “If the light presented meets this test, we are not to refuse to accept it because it does not agree with our ideas. . . . No matter by whom light is sent, we should open our hearts to receive it with the meekness of Christ.”—Id., p. 302. “When a message is presented to God’s people, they should not rise up in opposition to it: they should go to the Bible, comparing it with the law and the testimony, and if it does not bear this test, it is not true.”—Mrs. E.G. White,—“Review and Herald,” Feb. 18, 1890. “We should all know what is being taught among us; for if it is truth, we need it. We are all under obligation to God to know what He sends us.”—“Gospel Workers,” p. 301. “The people of God will be called upon to stand before kings, princes, rulers, and great men of the earth, and they must know that they do know what is truth.”—Mrs. E. G. White,—“Review and Herald,” Feb. 18, 1890. .
Amos 11:12
@@@^“Those who walk in the light will see signs of the approaching peril; but they are not to sit in quiet, unconcerned expectancy of the ruin, comforting themselves with the belief that God will shelter his people in the day of visitation. Far from it. They should realize that it is their duty to labor diligently to save others, looking with strong faith to God for help. ‘The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.’ ”—Id., Vol. 5, p. 209.
Amos 16:6

Obadiah 5:7
@@@^“If parents could be aroused to a sense of the fearful responsibility which rests upon them in the work of educating their children, more of their time would be devoted to prayer, and less to needless display. They would reflect, and study, and pray earnestly to God for wisdom and divine aid, to so train their children that they may develop characters that God will approve.”—“Fundamentals of Christian Education,” p. 30.
Obadiah 7:8
@@@^The Lord further says: “In order to advance the cause of God, means are necessary.” However, “it is not the plan of God to rain down means from heaven in order that His cause may be sustained,” (“Testimonies for the. Church,” Vol. 2, p. 660), but rather that all “shall arouse, and lay their prayers, their wealth, and all their energies and resources, at the feet of Jesus, . . .” Then “the cause of truth will triumph.”—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 4, p. 475.
Obadiah 15:7
@@@^“How many men in this age of the world fail to go deep enough. They only skim the surface. They will not think closely enough to see difficulties and grapple with them, and will not examine every important subject which comes before them with thoughtful, prayerful study, and with sufficient caution and interest to see the real point at issue. They talk of matters which they have not fully and carefully weighed.”—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 4, p. 361. “How readest thou?”
Jonah 4:1
@@@^I cannot express how earnestly I hope and pray that every Present Truth believer may gain an experience with God and receive even greater blessings than have I. I shall do my part to help answer my own prayers in your behalf, and to grant my heart’s desire, by doing what little I can for you, my brothers and sisters, whether it be in person or by correspondence, or by my endeavors to exert the kind of influence that will direct your minds to the One Who, by His death, made possible our doing even “greater works” than He.
Jonah 6:9
@@@^Your letter calls for more, but as I have already taken much of your time, here I stop, trusting that this reply will not be a hindrance to you, but rather a help in your eternal warfare, and that you will neither pass blind judgments on the work, nor waste your precious time by passing the mistakes of others to those who are not at fault. Believe me, Bro. ————, I have tried to save you from this terrible spirit of destructive criticism, and my prayer is that God will bless you and put your feet on solid ground.
