Page 9 of 21Deuteronomy 2:6
@@@^Brother C. T. _____ under date of Sept. 2 explains his numerous experiences in his travels through the middle west in the interest of the SRod which, for lack of space, we cannot enumerate herein, and has been able to interest a number of families of which several of them have already fully taken their stand on the side of present truth. Besides his public and private studies he has scattered much of our free literature. Our prayers in behalf of his efforts are that God’s word shall not return void unto Him.
Joshua 2:4
@@@^Suppose that minister had preached his Denver sermon in Moses’ time, would the earth have opened under him, or would he have been smitten while preaching? At which time did God ever excuse any one for not believing His prophets? “Believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper,” saith the Lord. (2 Chron. 1:20.) Let God’s people take notice. Has our church come to such a place where she can say, It matters not whether the members believe their prophet or not, and yet have them think that their salvation is secured while sinning against the Holy Ghost, committing the unpardonable sin? From whence cometh their authority for such sacrilege? Though many of the ministers ought to be thankful that at this time God does not immediately execute His judgments, their sorrow is in reserve. How long will God bear with this wickedness! Let us not be misunderstood in the above. We are hoping to rescue our brother from the “pit” which he is fast approaching. Will not God’s people hear our cry and join us in prayer that God do something to awaken His church? or shall we let the enemy rock us into hell?
Joshua 3:9
@@@^Remember the appointed hour for prayer each Friday evening. Please do not neglect the weekly freewill offering for the distribution of free literature. Regarding the request of our free employment agency, and for further information on the above requests, consult “Code” #2, p. 1, and “Code” #3, p. 5.
Judges 1:5
@@@^Sabbath, Oct. 20, five of us from Charleston attended church in Columbia, knowing that the cases of Dr. and Mrs. Young and others were to be dealt with. The conference president preached a sermon preparatory to the ‘unholy feast’ that was to take place that evening, following the Holy Sabbath, at which time he recommended that Dr. and Mrs. J. H. Young, and four other fine, clean S.D.A. members be ‘cast out as evil.’ We had opportunity to witness for the truth that Sabbath morning by standing with those who were to be cast out when the proposition was submitted as to who believed the message of ‘The Shepherd’s Rod.’ Then in the evening while they were in session we, who of course were barred from their midst, had a prayer meeting in the home of Dr. Young, which was appreciated very much by those concerned.
Judges 1:8
@@@^My observation from coast to coast during my short acquaintance with those standing in the light convinces me that we are in danger of allowing this wonderful light of Present Truth to become darkness in our lives by forgetting the real issue before us which is, ‘Cry aloud and spare not.’ But this cannot be done unless we have put sin out of our own lives, and it may be that the kind which besets us ‘goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.’ I therefore believe we have come to an experience similar to that of Ezra, and it is high time to do as he did at the River Ahava.–E. T. Wilson.
Judges 2:4
@@@^I have belonged to the church for 42 years,...but when those in office received word from the conference to drop in 30 days all that believed the SRod, they stopped me from leading the prayer meeting and took my Sabbath School class away from me and warned me not to teach the SRod in the church...but I am glad I can be partaker with Christ in His sufferings. @{{1SC5: 2.4@7@5
Judges 2:10
@@@^The elder also asked me if I believed in the SRod teachings. I answered him that I had never read it and therefore I was taking a neutral position in the matter, but he said that there is no neutral ground, that it had been proven error, and they would therefore have to vote me out of taking charge of the prayer meetings. The vote was taken and out of 33 present, only 3 hands went up against me.
Judges 3:7
@@@^However, although it seems that the work here has been very slow, and that the number of those who stand stiffly for the message is small, yet the SRod and what it stands for is known throughout this section, as well as in the Spokane community, and at the present time, here in Coeur d’Alene, ten of us are meeting together for studying present truth, and we ask that you remember us in prayer. @3(Signed) H. F. Roller
Judges 3:10
@@@^We are glad for Sr. Diamond’s hope and courage and calm determination to endure to the end, so as to be prepared when the Lord calls, for it is an inspiring example to all of the stuff of which saints are made. Let us remember her in our prayers.
Judges 9:12
@@@^Our united prayer on Friday evening (5 P.M. Pacific Standard Time; 6 P.M. Mountain Standard Time; 7 P.M. Central Standard Time; 8 P.M. Eastern Standard Time) in behalf of our brethren who are in darkness regarding present truth, should be faithfully observed by all concerned.
Ruth 1:2
@@@^With no desire to question your sincerity, and with all due respect for your office, may I ask whether you have personally made a prayerful investigation of the SRod message? Or is your warning against it based solely on the investigation of another as given in the little tract? My reason for asking this is that your predecessor also sent us a warning against the SRod message based, as he later acknowledged, not on his own investigation, but on a warning received by him from one in higher office.
Ruth 1:6
@@@^In the light of these clear, positive warnings against rejecting truth because men in high office do not accept it, may every Seventh-day Adventist minister and layman search his own heart in the light of his own Bible, before condemning “The Shepherd’s Rod” Message as heresy. Have the other 2174 ordained ministers made an earnest and prayerful investigation of “The Shepherd’s Rod” Message as has Elder E. T. Wilson? Surely, to be fair to themselves, honest with the people, and true to God, they should do so before branding him as a heretic, and before barring him from the homes of the people.
Ruth 2:8
@@@^About twenty precious souls at Meadows of Dan are rejoicing in the truths contained in the SRod. This number comprises most of the little church there, and besides these, two in Richmond have declared themselves anew in love with the Third Angel’s message, and know for the first time in all their lives that God has something for His people that will save poor, wandering, discouraged S.D.A.’s from their sins. To God be all the glory for what has been accomplished in this interesting field, and shall we not join these dear children of the Lord in most earnest prayer to the end that they may be used to bring Present Truth to many others in the church before the destructive judgments of the Lord fall upon the lukewarm professors therein?–E. T. Wilson.
1 Samuel 4:8
@@@^I am surely glad to receive the Symbolic Code, for it gives us courage to learn that there are faithful ones all over who are standing for the message. I am studying and praying, trying to get ready to work for the Lord in this last great struggle. I ask for your prayers. @3(Signed) Ben Garrett@4East Jamestown, Tenn.
1 Samuel 11:10
@@@^Our united prayer on Friday evening (5 P.M. Pac. Stand. Time; 6 P.M. Moun. Stand. Time; 7 P.M. Cent. Stand. Time; 8 P.M. East. Stand. Time) in behalf of our brethren who are in darkness regarding present truth, should be faithfully observed by all concerned.
2 Samuel 1:4
@@@^We earnestly ask our brothers and sisters, who believe in the mes-sage, humbly and sincerely to pray for God’s dear people, and let our prayers be mixed with faith, trusting in God to bless our efforts. The greatest concern of every believer should be a burden for the safety of the flock. Therefore, we must make irresistible exertion of mind and might to present the message to them.
2 Samuel 5:11
@@@^“Others of our church studied with us and were convinced of truth but turned back to the formal grind when persecution started, fulfilling Matt. 13:21. May they return before it is too late is our prayer.” @3(Signed) Ethel Gilbert@4Greenville, S. Car.
2 Samuel 10:7
@@@^@9Question:@7 “Where is the statement in the Spirit of Prophecy that says if we pray to know God’s will when He has plainly told us what to do in His Word, hoping that He will answer our prayers more to suit the tenor of our feelings, that Satan will be left to answer them for us?”
1 Kings 1:8
@@@^“At the same time they voted to have the doors guarded, and not to allow any of us to enter in the future. When I went to the next prayer meeting, they barred the door to me, and as they shut me out, I heard great laughter. The following Sabbath they refused to let Sr. Hendricks and me enter, so we stood outside until Sabbath School was over, it being 20° below zero. Last Sabbath there were four of us who were kept without in the cold, but we studied our Sabbath School lesson and they had a council meeting inside to determine what they should do with us.
1 Kings 4:9
@@@^The prayer meeting was then quickly turned into a business meeting for the purpose of disfellowshipping another sister who is a believer in the message of the SRod, and the pastor announced that, as business was the order of the meeting, all who were not members of the Glendale Church were kindly requested to leave.
