The Three Angels’ Messages Identifies the Remnant Church

Wikipedia describes Adventism as “a branch of Protestantism with origins in the 19thcentury American Protestant revival known as the Second Advent Awakening.  The name refers to the belief in the imminent Second Coming (or ‘Second Advent’) of Jesus Christ. William Miller started the Advent movement in the 1830s. His followers became known as the Millerites.”

Cited are at least eleven Adventist denominations, including the dominant Seventh-day Adventist Church. The “Other minor Adventist groups” are:

The Third Angel Points to the Sanctuary Above Where Christ Is

Five years ago, April 15 was also a Friday. Today’s focus for your Berean-like verification (Acts 17:11) is mostly a rerun of the 2011 FMM with a title relevant to this current series. It is an urgent reminder and a refresher.  The remnant church of prophecy is also the people of the sanctuary.

Every member and all truth-seekers should become conversant with the enlightening and edifying sanctuary doctrine for

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER THREE- Part XXXIII

Is justification by faith the third angel’s message in verity?

YES, verity meaning “that which is true; a truth; a reality.” Remember what God’s messengers taught and wrote about Biblical justification? Paul declared: “We are justified by faith” (Rom. 3: 28; 5:1; Gal. 2: 16), “by His blood” (Rom. 5: 9) and “by His grace” (Rom. 3: 24); but we are “saved by His life” (Rom. 5: 9). All true believers will “be justified by faith and judged by their works.”(4T 386). “For not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified.” Rom. 2: 13.

 The Third Angel’s Message and His Work

Today is April Fools’ Day. Wikipedia says some precursors of this “day of fools” include the Roman Festival of Hilaria, the Holi festival of India, and the Medieval Feast of Fools.

But fools and their follies date back much further but much more so in the future. See 2 Samuel chapter 26. When David for the second time spared the life of his insanely jealous and murderous father-in-law, Saul, the first king by popular choice of Israel, obtained by their persistent clamor to God to have a king rule over them like the heathen nations surrounding them,

The Third Angel and the Fourth Angel

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER THREE- Part XXXI

 The Third Angel and the Fourth Angel

 See Revelation 14: 6-12. We begin with the “third angel” and the nature of his work and message. The identity and work of the “fourth angel” follows later in this short series.

 Here’s an overview (a review for some): The final loud cry of the Revelation 18 “fourth angel” joins the third angel of Revelation 14, at the right time, whose message and work has been “swelling,” meaning, increasing in scope and magnitude since its start even as the midnight cry, in fulfillment of the parable of the Ten Virgins, joined the second angel’s message in the summer of 1844

 Was Patrick a Roman Catholic Saint?  

 First, we conclude last week’s focus on the ecumenical bandwagon picking up speed and “passengers” with the Papacy behind the wheel and the once-Protestant churches being the car, with this: only one Protestant denomination, considered the fastest-growing church in America, as of 2011, has been conspicuously absent in the official listing of the World Council of Church’s membership and all the flurry of the reunification activities since the Vatican II—the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.

The Union that the Third Angel’s Message Warns of

 We wish to remind the reader of the engine that drives this column from its inception, with a quote from the first of my favorite authors:

     “The Holy Spirit’s work is to guide into all truth [John 16: 13, 7-15]. When you depend on the Word of the living God with heart, and mind, and soul, the channel of communication will be unobstructed. Deep, earnest study of the Word under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, will give you fresh manna, and the same Spirit will make its use effectual . . . Then it [the soul] will be led into all truth.” – Ellen G. White, With God at Dawn (Devotional), p. 122.

Rev. Kevin Annett, M.A., M.Div., a modern-day Martin Luther in courage, advocate for truth and  liberty, and similarly hated thus, wrote:

What Evangelical Protestants Owe the German Princes?

What Evangelical Protestants Owe the German Princes?

 

   To think that God acts in history by the intermediary of political actions of man, revolutionary or conservative, is the complete opposite of hope.- Jacques Ellul.

Ellen G. White in her book Great Controversy (1911 ed.), “Protest of the Princes” ch. 11, quoted below, reminds the remainder of evangelical Protestants of the epic history of the heroic struggle the vastly outnumbered German princes put up in refusing to compromise with Rome in the sixteenth century so that in this 21st century, Christianity is still enjoying religious freedom and free access to God’s Word where over a thousand years these were treated as heresies punishable by some of the worst forms of torture invented through the Office of the Inquisition.
