@@@^Our correspondence reveals that the “Great Reformatory Movement Among God’s People” has found its way into many lands outside the United States, and an earnestness is taking hold of our people as they investigate the truths contained in the series of books and tracts of “The Shepherd’s Rod.” We are thus encouraged to believe that we shall soon see the fulfillment of that statement which says, “In the last solemn work, few great men will be engaged.” I am. so happy that it does not say, “no great men will be engaged.” Therefore, let us “thank God and take courage,” for the “final movements will be rapid ones.’
Hosea 5:4
@@@^I am writing a card to let you know how much we really enjoy the Code. I only wish it were possible to publish it oftener, for it contains so much valuable information. I also thank you for the tracts, for I know that everything in them is the truth which we must have. @3MRS. R.
Hosea 5:8
@@@^I am still rejoicing in the light of Present Truth, and although the opposition is great, nevertheless I am studying with a number of persons. Pray for me that I may overcome, especially in my own home, the difficulties which beset me. @3L. R. H.
Hosea 6:4
@@@^No one has to study another’s writings, but they need to understand the Bible, for the Word of God is their very life. However, as the Scriptures are of no private interpretation (2 Peter 1:20, 21), but by Inspiration only, which is evidenced by the fact that no one has ever of himself been able to discover any sealed or hidden Biblical truth, it is unavoidably necessary to study the Bible by the help of inspired commentaries, as the believers of the early Christian church studied the writings of the apostles in order to understand the Bible for their time.
Hosea 7:2
@@@^Those who entertain the idea that there is only one sifting, and only first fruits, will never be able to harmonize every statement of the Bible and of the Spirit of Prophecy, for while their idea may perfectly harmonize in one instance, it will not in another. But the position of those who know the truth, and who all speak the same thing, will be in harmony with every inspired statement on the subject.
Hosea 8:2
@@@^“Please give us light on the following testimony: ‘O that the people might know the time of their visitation! . . . The time of God’s destructive judgments is the time of mercy for those who have had no opportunity to learn what is truth. Tenderly will the Lord look upon them. His heart of mercy is touched; His hand is still stretched out to save, while the door is closed to those who would not enter.’—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 9, p. 97.”
Hosea 8:3
@@@^The above testimony shows that God is to manifest His “destructive judgments” before the close of probation, for at that time He will be merciful to those who “have had no opportunity to learn what is truth, . . . His hand is still stretched out to save.” Moreover, it also proves that at the same time, “the doors” (probation), had closed “to those who would not enter.”
Hosea 9:11
@@@^It has been reported that some Present Truth teachers, when asked curious, and irrelevant questions (usually by those who oppose the message), leave the subject of their study and begin to answer these queer questions, which lead away from the object of the meeting, thus disappointing their audience.
Hosea 10:1
@@@^Present Truth teachers, remember that the enemy is constantly on your trail, doing all that he can to overthrow you and to make your work of none effect. Hence, you should not allow the enemy to drift you from one subject to another, for such a diversion from the object of the meeting will be of no benefit to your listeners. Therefore, forestall all such questions by telling the questioner that his query does not pertain to the subject of the study and that it can be answered after the meeting is dismissed.
Hosea 10:2
@@@^Another complaint concerning teachers of Present Truth has come to the office. This time, the complaint is in regard to their using so many references to prove their points that their studies are unnecessarily prolonged, and are confusing to their listeners.
Hosea 12:1
@@@^This little paper is dedicated to the mission of conveying, to Present Truth believers, edifying news items and reformatory activities, and of answering questions on the sealing message of the 144,000 (Rev. 7:1-8) and the great multitude (Rev. 7:9); on the prophecies of Isaiah, Zechariah, Zephaniah, Micah, Hosea, Joel, Daniel, the Revelation, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, etc., but especially on the first eight books above mentioned; on Christ’s parables, on types and symbols, also on the writings of Mrs. E. G. White.
Hosea 12:2
@@@^However, this monthly visitor promises to answer questions on such passages of Scripture only as have been divinely revealed and authoritatively proclaimed—bearing the positive mark of truth. Therefore, it will either give a correct answer to the questions, or else confess its ignorance by saying, “I do not know.”
Joel 2:5
@@@^“Such an education provides more than mental discipline; it provides more than physical training. It strengthens the character, so that truth and uprightness are not sacrificed to selfish desire or worldly ambition. It fortifies the mind against evil. . . . Every motive and desire are brought into conformity to the great principles of right. . . . What education can be higher than this? What can equal it in value?”—“Education,” p. 18.
Joel 2:9
@@@^“Therefore, that every student, teacher, and resident of Mt. 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 3:1
@@@^“Having answered the call to step out of a life of fashion, sports, and gaiety, and to come ‘to the help of the Lord against the mighty,’ I now find myself in the thick of the battle of ‘the closing work for the church,’ surrounded by a glorious bright light—the message of present truth.
Joel 3:11
@@@^“Truly, we have a wonderful message, one that changes our thoughts and desires. Before I received present truth, (when I was still a regular member of the Adventist church), I spent my time seeking for amusement, but now, studying God’s Word, and striving to know and do His will, has taken the place of parties, tennis, basketball, baseball, radio, fashion, and numerous other things of the world.
Joel 5:9
@@@^“And then, too, I am surely thankful that the message of Present Truth found me, and I realize more and more the necessity of studying the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy, for it is my aim to be found in ‘that city bright and fair, over, over there.’” @3Joyce Helman, age 13
Joel 5:11
@@@^“It is my earnest desire to have a part in this sealing message, to help reestablish the school of the prophets, and to be an instrument of the Lord’s in bringing others into the truth. I know that it is the young people who are to finish the work, and I want to be among those who have this privilege.” @3Cecil Helman, age 15
Joel 6:6
@@@^“God works through human instrumentalities; and whoever shall awaken the consciences of men, provoking them to good works and a real interest in the advancement of the cause of truth, does not do it of himself, but by the Spirit of God which worketh in him. Pledges made under these circumstances are of a sacred character, being the fruit of the work of the Spirit of God. When these pledges are canceled, Heaven accepts the offering, and these liberal workers are credited for so much treasure invested in the bank of Heaven. Such are laying up a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.”—Id. p. 473.
Joel 6:9
@@@^While the above references from the “Testimonies” apply primarily to pledges of money, they are equally as applicable to all cases of pledges or vows to God, of whatever nature they may be, and not one is under a more solemn covenant than those who are standing in the light of “present truth,” and who have undersigned the resolution published in the December Code. Then, lest our mouths cause our flesh to sin, let us ponder well the following words of Holy Writ:
