Page 171 of 3161 Chronicles 5:8
@@@^Again we may well inquire, What put such hatred into the hearts of these young men? The answer is clear, for it was nothing else than the sermon they had heard in the church. May God forgive these dear men for this wicked thing. 0, consistency, thou are a jewel!
1 Chronicles 6:7
@@@^“When they were through they came back, turned on the lights, unlocked the door, and I went out. Poor souls, I don’t see how we can ever reach them! How I do thank the Lord for the showers of truth that He is sending. O, I long for more faith in the power of God to save me from sin!”
1 Chronicles 6:8
@@@^Nearly every body in the world, including Seventh-day Adventists, are concerned with the above question, and most of us spend some time, at least, trying to avoid offense by carefulness in our outward appearance, but the Bible tells us that only man looks at the outside, while God sees the heart, so shall we not turn the searchlight of His word inward for a frequent checkup, lest we neutralize our efforts for good by thoughtless actions?
1 Chronicles 7:9
@@@^Because of the abundance of light the Lord is sending us at this time, we are liable to overlook the fact that the mind, like the stomach, can only handle so much food, and, in our zeal to give the flock good measure we overfeed, and the people are not able to digest all they get. The servant of the Lord has not left us without instruction on this point, but tells us that the discourses of some are too long, making so many points in one sermon that most of them are covered up until the hearers cannot get any of them. Furthermore, we are having an increasing number of young people and children who are attending our services, and who are desirous of helping to give the message to the church, and be one of those who shall receive the seal and become a part of the “servants of God,” and they, too, are watching us.
1 Chronicles 8:4
@@@^In her communication to the former pastor, this sister reminded him of how earnestly he had prayed that they would not allow a Government job to stand in their way of accepting the Sabbath, and how much they appreciated his prayers in their behalf at that crucial hour of their experience. Then she told him that she and her husband were now praying earnestly that he would not allow a conference job to stand in his way of accepting the added light which God is sending to His people at this time, and pleaded with him to make an honest and unbiased investigation of the message contained in the SRod series of books and tracts.
1 Chronicles 8:9
@@@^We do not wish, however, to fall under the condemnation of those who shall give a “peace and safety” message, saying, “He is too merciful to visit His people in judgment,” for by so doing, the Lord says emphatically that “the just vengeance of an offended God” comes upon such, and that “men, maidens, and little children all perish together.” “Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 5, p. 211.
1 Chronicles 9:9
@@@^Ans. We do not believe God will lay away any one because of being in danger of rejecting the light He sends. However, He may do so for some other reason. Those who do not hear the Good Shepherd’s voice now, neither will they hear it in the resurrection of the just. Nevertheless, we can not judge, for we do not know the conditions and circumstances under which one may pass away.
1 Chronicles 10:2
@@@^Third, remind him of Isaiah 66:16, 19, 20. The slaying mentioned in verse 16 is to be literal, for those that shall @9escape@7 of them are to be sent to @9all@7 the @9nations@7 to proclaim His glory and His fame. This slaughter is in the church only, for those who “escape of them” are God’s servants whom, after the slaughter, He shall send to the Gentiles; and if the slaughter is not literal then what will they “escape” from?” Moreover, Ezekiel saw them literally slain. (Ezek. 9:7.)
2 Chronicles 1:2
@@@^The guilt of this situation which confronts the church, depicting her neglect all these years, must be shared by all of us who have been a part of this great movement which God launched in this world of sin back in the early forties of the former century.
2 Chronicles 1:5
@@@^That this denomination is the Laodicean church, no one denies. That we, as a church, have “turned back from following Christ” our “Leader” (“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 5, p. 217) all agree. That “doubt and even disbelief of the testimonies of the Spirit of God, is leavening our churches everywhere” (Id.), not one dares to dispute. Then what is there left for us to do, dear friends in “present truth”? Is it not high time to do as one of old, by returning to the “old landmarks,” from which the servant of the Lord says “we have wandered”?–“Testimonies for the church,” Vol. 5, p. 137. The Gospel prophet further says :
2 Chronicles 2:1
@@@^Speaking of those who are expecting to give the “Loud Cry,” and the necessary preparation that is to be made, the servant of the Lord says: “I was shown that if God’s people make no efforts on their part, but wait for the refreshing to come upon them and remove their wrongs and correct their errors; if they depend upon that to cleanse them from filthiness of the flesh and spirit, and fit them to engage in the @9loud cry@7 of the third angel, they will be found wanting.” Testimonies for the church,” Vol. 1, p. 619.
2 Chronicles 2:2
@@@^Speaking directly to the denomination of what had been shown concerning the care of our own people, the Lord pointed out the mistakes of those in charge of the Health Institute in the following language: “When I saw those who managed and directed, running into the dangers shown me, of which I had warned them in public, and also in private conversation and letters, a terrible burden came upon me. That which had been shown me as a place where the suffering sick among @9us@7 could be helped, was one where sacrifice, hospitality, faith, and piety should be the ruling principles. But when unqualified calls were made for large sums of money, with the statement that stock taken would pay large per cent; when the brethren who occupied positions in the institution seemed more than willing to take larger wages than those were satisfied with who filled other and equally important stations in the great cause of truth and reform; when I learned, with pain, that, in order to make the institution popular with those not of our faith, and to secure their patronage, a spirit of compromise was rapidly gaining ground at the Institute...when I saw these things, I said, This is not that which was shown me as an institution for the sick, which would share the signal blessing of God. This is another thing.”–“Testimonies for the Church” Vol. 1, pp. 633-4.
2 Chronicles 2:3
@@@^Then, after reciting some of the things which brought sorrow to her heart, Sr. White gives the following encouraging words: “With the blessing of God this can and @9will be done@7.”- Id. p. 635. Calling attention to the fact that the “health reform” is a part of our work, the Lord gives the following further instruction with a stinging rebuke;
2 Chronicles 2:4
@@@^“The brethren who have stood at the head of this work have appealed to our people for means, on the ground that the health reform is a part of the great work connected with the third angel’s message. In this they have been right. It is a branch of the great, charitable, liberal, sacrificing, benevolent work of God. Then why should these brethren say, ‘Stock in the Health Institute will pay a large per cent, ‘it is a good investment,’ a paying thing’?”–Ib.
2 Chronicles 2:5
@@@^While it is clear that the Lord approved of our people taking stock in the Health Institute, which was to be a place primarily for the benefit of our own people, yet He never designed that inducements should be held out to those purchasing said stock, that dividends should accrue to them, for this would only bring in a spirit of selfishness and commercialism that we now see, and thus thwart the plan of God for the worthy poor among us, and also unfit them for the great work for which our medical institutions were established.
2 Chronicles 3:2
@@@^Since God is to have a pure church into which He is to gather the innumerable company by the voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues,” where the spiritual necessities are cared for; will He not also provide a way whereby the physical needs may be ministered unto? Inasmuch as He is to accomplish this work through human instrumentalities, surely none should fail to enter such a high and exalted service.
2 Chronicles 3:6
@@@^In no respect, perhaps, have we departed more decidedly than in the way we conduct ourselves in the house of God, for almost everywhere it has become a place for the commonest sort of visiting, of cheap and foolish talking, all of which is specifically condemned in the following:
2 Chronicles 4:4
@@@^It is written: “And whoso shall receive one such little child in My name receiveth Me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in Me, it were better for Him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea....Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones.” (Matt. 18:5, 6, 10.) “God has shown me that these men [in responsible positions] are Hazaels to prove a scourge to our people. They are @9wise above what is written@7.”–“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 5, p. 79.
2 Chronicles 5:1
@@@^O the tragedy of it all! A nation about to perish! Brethren, have we forsaken all and taken Him? Are our lives to those verging toward the irrevocable night of doom an epistle that reads with Pauline sincerity and love that “I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.” This is the love that will “make a break against the barriers of Satan” and bring salvation to the remnant people of God. It is all that will avail us now. It is the genesis of that character which the Spirit of Prophecy portrays in the following words which we ought all profoundly pray are a picture of ourselves:
2 Chronicles 5:5
@@@^The noble desire on the part of this young lady who attained such heights of Christian experience speaks more loudly for the SRod message than most anything else could. It does, however, reveal the fact that God has a message for His church at this present time which we believe will turn the tide of back door exists which our young people’s leaders everywhere have longed to see for many years.
