@@@^We cannot be called “commandment-keeping people” unless we do all our work and do it on time, for one of the commandments is, “@9six@7 days shalt thou labor and do @9all@7 thy work.” If we waste a moment of our time, except it be because of some inability we would be unfit to call ourselves“commandment-keepers.” Hence, we must labor smilingly and faithfully six full days of the week. Neither can we let the work drag behind each day and yet claim to keep God’s commandments. As the work which God has assigned to everyone is neither too much nor not enough, if we faithfully labor six days and do all our work we would neither find idle time during the week nor would we find something undone at the end of the week.
Song of Solomon 14:7
@@@^Having laid all these things aside, then go a step further with us if you expect to do a similar work to that of John the Baptist and if you desire to be translated up to your Eden home; that is, reach forth to God’s original diet which He has provided for the human family. For as we are now going to our original home we should accustom ourselves to our original diet. “And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” (Gen. 1:28.)
Isaiah 6:5
@@@^Therefore, by the grace of God, I am going to do all that is in my power to arouse my brethren and sisters that they may see the “Present Truth” for this time. Nothing but death can keep me from passing it to others. Pray for them and me, that God’s people may return to the “old landmarks” and “the firm platform” in fulfillment of the following: “The living testimony had been revived. The last great warning had sounded everywhere, and it had stirred up and enraged the inhabitants of the earth who would not receive the message.” (“Early Writings,” p. 279.)
Isaiah 7:5
@@@^@@Dear Brothers and Sisters:@^Last fall in studying the “Temple Chart,” we ran into what appeared to be conflicting statements, but as we feared that we might be turning aside light from the Lord, we set to work, trying to run down the discrepancy. After three months of intense study, I have not been able to disprove a single thing, and though I find that much history is lost, there remains sufficient evidence to justify one’s faith and confidence in the study. I find the subject intensely interesting, and I am glad for the time spent: it proves to me that this is a message from God, urging us to clean up and prepare for the fulfillment of Ezekiel 9. It is plain that no one will receive the seal of God if he continues sinning or neglecting to sigh and cry for the abominations in the church. (Vol. 5 p. 210.) @3(Signed) R. F. G.@4Portland, Ore.
Isaiah 8:6
@@@^The whole world will be urged to receive the seal of God and also the mark of the beast. There will be in the Advent message many who will yield for the time being to the pleading of the Spirit, but who will, before completely surrendering to God, “yield their faith and thus receive the mark of the beast.”
Isaiah 8:10
@@@^While God has given ample evidence for faith, He will never remove all excuse for unbelief. All who look for hooks to hang their doubts upon, will find them. And those who refuse to accept and obey God’s word until every objection has been removed, and there is no longer an opportunity for doubt, will never come to the light.”—“The Great Controversy,” p. 527.
Isaiah 9:1
@@@^Suppose we should all feel that our tithes must go to the treasury in Washington, then how would the message reach the people in the church? God does not want to bring the heathen unconverted into the church for the slaughter of Ezekiel Nine, but He is exceedingly anxious to save the church: neither is He working “to bring @9many@7 souls into the truth, because of the church-members who have never been converted. . . . Would they not make of no effect the God-given message which His people are to bear?”—“Testimonies for the Church,” Vol. 6, p. 371.
Isaiah 9:3
@@@^“Satan is now using every device in this sealing time to keep the minds of God’s people from the @9present truth@7 and to cause them to waver”. . . ”Warn those who embrace but a part of the truths . . . that they must gladly receive all the messages as God has given them, or have no part in the matter.”—“Early Writings,” pp. 43, 188, 189.
Isaiah 9:10
@@@^“This message seemed to be @9an addition@7 to the @9third message@7, joining it as the midnight cry joined the second angel’s message in 1844. The glory of God rested upon the patient, waiting saints, and they fearlessly gave the last solemn warning, proclaiming the fall of Babylon, and calling upon God’s people to come out of her that they might escape her fearful doom.
Isaiah 10:6
@@@^The angel of Revelation 7, who prophetically sealed the 144,000, is the same as the one of Ezekiel Nine, who marked those who signed and cried for the abominations in the church. Says the Spirit of Prophecy: “This mightiest of angels (Rev. 7:2) has in his hand the seal of the living God, or of Him who alone can give life, who can inscribe upon the foreheads the mark or inscription, to whom shall be granted immortality, eternal life. It is the voice of this highest angel that had authority to command the four angels to keep in check the four winds until this work was performed, and until he should give the summons to let them loose. . . . This @9sealing@7 of the @9servants@7 of God is the same that was shown to Ezekiel in vision.”—“Testimonies to Ministers,” pp. 444, 445.
Isaiah 10:7
@@@^Brother J., you say, “Our earnest, sincere prayers are for you as you reply to these that God may make these points so clear to us all.” I know, Brother J., that God has answered your prayer, and that it is your duty to accept His answer and to act out the last part of your prayer; which is, “That all the powers of darkness can cause us to doubt no more.”
Isaiah 11:8
@@@^The professed people of God find themselves in the exact condition described in the above paragraph! Most of them neither know how to cook, nor how to live and as blind as they are in these temporal things, they are far worse in matters spiritual! They have no head of their own in the material things of life for they have made the doctors their head both at the loss of their earthly treasure, and at the expense of their health; while they make the ministers the head of their spiritual life at the expense of their heavenly treasure! We fail to find anything in all God’s creation by which to illustrate such a pitiful condition.
Isaiah 11:9
@@@^“We are in a world that is opposed to righteousness, or purity of character, an and especially to growth in grace. Wherever we look, we see defilement and corruption, deformity and sin. How opposed is all this to the work that must be accomplished in us just previous to receiving the gift of immortality! God’s elect must stand untainted amid the corruptions teeming around them in these last days. Their bodies must be made holy, their spirits pure. If this work is to be accomplished, it must be undertaken at once, earnestly and understandingly. The Spirit of God should have prefect control influencing every action.”—“Counsels on Health,” p. 20.
Jeremiah 4:15
@@@^The Jewish leaders thought that if they could by whatsoever means but get rid of Christ, His work of reform and advanced light on the Word of God would then come to an end, but it was after they crucified Him that His work brought forth fruit and that thousands accepted the teachings of Christ. Likewise, as the false charges, and cruel unChristlike actions against us in the past have worked out for the advancement of the cause of God, this one will also. Truth, honesty, and integrity, in time, always prevail against error, falsehood and impropriety.
Jeremiah 6:1
@@@^“Satan is now using every device in this sealing time to keep the minds of God’s people from the present truth, and to cause them to waver. I saw a covering that God was drawing over His people to protect them in the time of trouble; and every soul that was decided on the truth, and was pure in heart, was to be covered with the covering of the Almighty. . . .
Jeremiah 6:5
@@@^“I saw that those who of late have embraced the truth would have to know what it is to suffer for Christ’s sake, that they would have trials to pass through that would be keen and cutting, in order that they may be purified, and fitted through suffering to receive the seal of the living God, pass through the time of trouble, see the King in His beauty, and dwell in the presence of God, and of pure, holy angels. . . .
Jeremiah 6:6
@@@^“And as the disciples declared that there is salvation in no other name under heaven, given among men, so, also, should the servants of God faithfully and fearlessly warn those who embrace but a part of the truths connected with the third message, that they must gladly receive all the messages as God has given them, or have no part in the matter.”—“Early Writings,” pp. 43, 44, 48, 64, 67, 188, 189.
Jeremiah 6:7
@@@^“There are men who teach the truth,but who are not perfecting their ways before God, who are trying to conceal their defections, and encourage an estrangement from God. They have not the moral courage to do the things that it is for their special benefit to do. They see no necessity for reform, and so they reject the words of the Lord, and hate him who reproveth at the gate.
Jeremiah 11:1
@@@^@9Question:@7@^“Please explain ‘Early writings,’ p. 15, about the voice of God announcing the day and the hour of Jesus’ coming, at which time He ‘pours upon’ the saints ‘the Holy Ghost.’ Is this not at the time of the seven last plagues? If so, then how could the ‘latter rain’ be poured out upon God’s people before the close of probation?”
Jeremiah 11:2
@@@^We understand that God will announce the day and the hour of Christ’s coming at the time of the seventh plague, at which time He will pour out His Spirit upon His saints, but this pouring out of His Spirit is not the latter or the former rain of the truth and the power prophesied in Joel 2:23, 28, or in “Early Writings,” p. 85, but rather a special manifestation of God’s Spirit—not to reveal to us either the fullness of or to enable us to proclaim the Gospel Truth, but simply to fit us to see Jesus face to face as He is. These facts are further attested by Joel 2:24, and “Early Writings,” pp. 277, 278.
