NEHEMIAH’S EXAMPLE IN UNIQUE CRISIS RE: GOD’S WORK

March 24 2020
FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

NEHEMIAH’S EXAMPLE IN UNIQUE CRISIS RE: GOD’S WORK.

“I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down.” Neh 4:9. (See Nehemiah ch.6; PK ch.55, “Heathen Plots). — Nehemiah wisely refused to be distracted and thus hinder the grave task entrusted to him to accomplish the critical last phase of rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. This lesson is preserved for the guidance of all who are called “repairers of the breach,” “watchmen on the wall,” and light-bearers of the third angels’ message.

Mar 2 2020
FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

THE WATCHMAN’S SOLEMN WORK & RESPONSIBILITY

“Watchman, what of the night? The watchman said, If you will inquire, inquire; Return! Come back!” Isa. 21:10,11. 

“Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore, hear a word from My mouth, and give them warning from Me.” Eze.28:17 (Note: read verses 18-21 before moving on!). 

“In a special sense Seventh-day Adventist’s have been set in the world as watchmen and light-bearers [cf. Matt. 5:14-16].

To them has been entrusted the last warning for a perishing world. On them is shining wonderful light from the word of God. They have been given a work of the most solemn import—the proclamation of the first, second and third angels’ messages.
