Page 7 of 19Lamentations 8:4
@@@^“Go through, go through the gates; prepare ye the way of the people; cast up, cast up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a standard for the people. Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.” (Isa. 62:10,11.)
Lamentations 12:6
@@@^This monthly comforter gladly calls on all S.D.A.’s who open their doors and welcome its presence. 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.)
Ezekiel 3:1
@@@^Much to our regret, it has become necessary for us to make public a criticism that some teachers of the SRod message have been reported to have fallen into the grievous evil of becoming overly zealous to establish their converts in the duty of tithe paying, which results in diverting the minds of the people from the main object of our message; that is, it leads to formalism and Pharisaism, and leaves the people asleep in their sins, hoping that their faithful tithe paying will, without change of habits and practices, insure their salvation.
Ezekiel 10:2
@@@^“He has given His people a plan for raising sums sufficient to make the enterprise self-sustaining. God’s plan in the tithing system is beautiful in its simplicity and equality. All may take hold of it in faith and courage, for it is divine in its origin. In it are combined simplicity and utility, and it does not require depth of learning to understand and execute it. All may feel that they can act a part in carrying forward the precious work of salvation. Every man, woman, and youth may become a treasurer for the Lord, and may be an agent to meet the demands upon the treasury. Says the apostle, ‘Let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him.’
Ezekiel 10:6
@@@^“Systematic benevolence looks to you as needless; you overlook the fact that it originated with God, whose wisdom is unerring. This plan He ordained to save confusion, to correct covetousness, avarice, selfishness, and idolatry. This system was to cause the burden to rest lightly, yet with due weight, upon all. The salvation of man cost a dear price, even the life of the Lord of glory, which He freely gave to lift man from degradation, and to exalt him to become heir of the world. God has so ordained that man shall aid his fellowman in the great work of redemption.”—Vol. 1, p.545.
Ezekiel 16:6
@@@^This monthly comforter gladly calls on all S.D.A.'s who open their doors and welcome its presence. 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.)
Daniel 9:1
@@@^If men could be saved in their ignorance, the world would be better off without the gospel of Christ, for it then would not be a gospel of salvation, but rather of perdition to all who might be saved without it, but who reject it. Says the Spirit of Prophecy:
Daniel 11:7
@@@^“If Seventh-day Adventists practiced what they profess to believe, if they were sincere health reformers, they would indeed be a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men. And they would show a far greater zeal for the salvation of those who are ignorant of the truth.
Daniel 12:6
@@@^This monthly comforter gladly calls on all S.D.A.’s who open their doors and welcome its presence. 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.)
Hosea 3:8
@@@^While our spirits weep to see our dear people in the clutches of the devil, yet they immediately revive when we remember that the Lord has among us as a people one hundred and forty-four thousand, who will be found without guile in their mouths, and who will stand without a single fault before Him, “being the firstfruits” of those who shall be “clad in the armor of Christ’s righteousness,” and who will be permitted to go “into all the world” for the final harvest. Indications are that there will be from the east many who will respond to the call of God to help “raise up the tribes of Jacob,” and thus be privileged to be “a light to the Gentiles,” and finally His “salvation unto the end of the earth.”—Isaiah 49:6.
Hosea 12:6
@@@^This monthly comforter gladly calls on all S.D.A.’s who open their doors and welcome its presence. 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.)
Joel 11:1
@@@^Moreover, whatever interpretation we may place on any statement in reference to any truth, must be in harmony with every other statement on the subject. In confining the time of trouble to a period after the close of probation, the questioner is not in harmony with “Early Writings,” pp. 85, 86, for we read there that “ ‘The commencement of the time of trouble,’ here mentioned, does not refer to the time when the plagues shall begin to be poured out, but to a @9short period just before@7 they are poured out, while Christ is @9in the sanctuary@7. At that time, while the work of salvation is closing, trouble will be coming on the earth, and the nations will be angry, yet held in check so as not to prevent the work of the third angel. At that time the ‘latter rain,’ or refreshing from the presence of the Lord, will come, to give power to the loud voice of the third angel, and prepare the saints to stand in the period when the seven last plagues shall be poured out.” This reference perfectly harmonizes the apparent contradiction between “A Word to the Little Flock” and our tract No. 3, “The Harvest.”
Joel 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.

Amos 6:7
@@@^“He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of His people shall He take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.” (Isa. 25:8, 9.)
Amos 10:3
@@@^The foregoing quotations clearly set forth in the light of prophecy three requirements of great importance for God’s people who profess His name at this time. First, each and every child of God is personally and individually responsible to God for an experimental knowledge of the great plan of salvation. Second, no individual or group of individuals has any God-given right to interpose between the people and a message, or to hinder it in any way. Third, we must be in absolute harmony with the “Great Ruler of the Universe,” Who “wills that a voice shall be heard arousing His people to action” (“Gospel Workers,” p. 300).
Amos 12:9
@@@^@@Dear Brethren and Sisters at Mt. Carmel Center:@^Greetings to you for the New Year. We who believe that the, message of Ezekiel Nine is Present Truth, number from fifteen to twenty. We are of good courage in the Lord, and are doing what we can to give the message to those who do not know about it as do we. Though we find hard the task of getting those who are prejudiced against “The Shepherd’s Rod” to consent to sit down and study the Bible and the “Testimonies for the Church”, we are nevertheless giving the light to all whom we find to have a mind of their own, and who prize salvation above self-consideration or an easy time, believing that the Holy Spirit will search out all who will become obedient and be purified and made ready for the final test.
Amos 16:6
@@@^This monthly comforter gladly calls on all S.D.A.’s who open their doors and welcome its presence.

Jonah 3:1
@@@^Its being true that nature is God’s open book to all nations, tongues, and peoples, be they small or great, learned or illiterate, we are admonished by the lesson from this year’s harvest to avail ourselves of the moisture (truth) from above while we are now in the time of the latter rain, which is to give us the development that will recommend us to the heavenly garner. Therefore, just as the complete success of Mt. Carmel’s crops depended upon the April-May rains, so the completeness of our holiness and salvation depends upon the showers of the “latter rain” (teacher of righteousness—Joel 2:23, margin) as God, Himself, is the “husbandman” of the field, and the Creator of the rain, He would not cause either too much or too little rain (Present Truth) to fall upon the grain (church). Consequently, we who have the opportunity to make use of all the Present Truth (rain) which God sends, will, if we in any way deprive ourselves of it, fail in our Christian development, as did Mt. Carmel’s fields fail in their development, falling short of yielding a full crop to the “Husbandman” Who hath long waited for His “first fruits” of the promised seed.
Jonah 3:7
@@@^Do not, my brothers and sisters, abuse God’s mercy, and turn a deaf ear to His pleadings by questioning and criticizing everything now “in the unfolding of truth,” when you should be feeding on the “green pastures” and on the holy “rain,” lest He surprise you at your “unholy feast.” (“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 5, p.690.) Why should we be like the Jews of old who questioned and criticized Christ’s work, character, and experience, all the way from His parentage to His resurrection? They thought themselves wise in doing this, but as their deeds later proved both to themselves and to the world, they were but fools. And now may we, brother, sister, profit by their experience, and take the Lord’s advice to lay aside all human wisdom and become child-like, so that He may fill us with divine wisdom, thus proving both to ourselves and to the world that we are not as the Jews of old. God has delegated no one either to look after or to supervise His work. He is well able to take care of it, and without our criticisms, but He cannot take care of our salvation if we do not allow Present Truth to “engross the whole mind, the whole attention” (“Early Writings,” p. 118), to impel us to spread the message, and to eradicate our long cultivated evil habits, rather than to allow Satan to urge us to try to direct the work.
Jonah 9:11
@@@^Will you not then, my brethren, praise God for “taking the reins in His Own hands”? Will you not sing: “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing; for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring, again Zion”? (Isa. 52:7, 8.)
