straightness of the way, how will they stand in the day of battle? Truths that

4. God has called His church in this day, as He called ancient
Israel, to stand as a light in the earth. By the mighty cleaver of
truth, the messages of the first, second, and third angels, He has
separated them from the churches and from the world to bring
them into a sacred nearness to Himself. He has made them the
depositaries of His law and has committed to them the great
truths of prophecy for this time. Like the holy oracles
committed to ancient Israel, these are a sacred trust to be
communicated to the world. The three angels of Revelation 14
represent the people who accept the light of God's messages and
go forth as His agents to sound the warning throughout the
length and breadth of the earth. Christ declares to His
followers: "Ye are the light of the world."

17. God's purpose in giving the third angel's
message to the world is to prepare a
people to stand true to Him during the
investigative judgment. This is the purpose
for which we establish and maintain our
publishing houses, our schools, our
sanitariums, hygienic restaurants,
treatment rooms, and food factories. This
is our purpose in carrying forward every
line of work in the cause. Ms 154, 1902, p.
4. ("Instruction to Men in Positions of
Responsibility," October 24, 1902.) {1MR
228.2}
Our sanitariums have been established for the purpose of
preparing a people for the second coming of our Lord and
Saviour. {MR-229}
The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will
be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the test for the
people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided...
This is the test that the people of God must have before they are
sealed . All who prove their loyalty to God by observing His law,
and refusing to accept a spurious Sabbath, will rank under the
banner of the Lord God Jehovah and will receive the seal of the
living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and
accept the Sunday Sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast.
(BC 7A -976)

18. PRAISE TEAM
The things you have described as taking place
in Indiana, the Lord has shown me would take
place just before the close of probation. Every
uncouth thing will be demonstrated. There will
be shouting, with drums, music, and dancing.
The senses of rational beings will become so
confused that they cannot be trusted to make
right decisions. And this is called the moving of
the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit never reveals itself in such
methods, in such a bedlam of noise. This is an
invention of Satan to cover up his ingenious
methods for making of none effect the pure,
sincere, elevating, ennobling, sanctifying truth
for this time. {2SM 36.2}

20. MARK OF THE BEAST

NO EARTHLY SUPPORT

23. Rev 13:1-2

25. "Satan has devised a multitude of ways in
which to keep men from serving God. He has
invented sports and games, into which men
enter with such intensity that one would
suppose a crown of life was to reward the
winner.
At the horse race sand football matches,
which are attended by thousands and
thousands of people, lives for which Christ
shed His blood are thrown away. What will
become of the souls of the men and boys
whose lives are thus extinguished?
Will they be counted worthy of the
redemption which Christ died to secure for
them?" {Review and Herald, September 10,
1901 par. 5}

26. "No Other Gods Before Me."
Is the eye single to the glory of God in these
games? I know that this is not so. There is a
losing sight of God's way and His purpose.
The employment of intelligent beings, in
probationary time, is superseding God's
revealed will and substituting for it the
speculations and inventions of the human
agent, with Satan by his side to imbue with
his spirit. . . .
The Lord God of heaven protests against the
burning passion cultivated for supremacy in
the games that are so engrossing.--Letter
17a, 1893 (AH, pp. 499, 500).

27. 10 evils in sports and competition
1. Competition encourages us to view each
other as enemies.
2. Competition promotes selfishness and the
desire to be first.
3. Competition promotes envy and jealousy.
4. Competition encourages hatred and
contempt towards others.

28. .
5. Competition promotes revenge and retaliation.
6. Competition encourages levity and insensitivity at the
downfall of others.
7. Competition promotes pride and conceit.
8. Competition encourages divisions among God’s people.
9. Competition encourages us to take advantage of others’
weaknesses.
10. Competition encourages idolatry.

29. The religion of Jesus is endangered. It is being mingled with worldliness. Worldly policy is
taking the place of the true piety and wisdom that comes from above, and God will remove
His prospering hand from the conference. Shall the ark of the covenant be removed from this
people? Shall idols be smuggled in? Shall false principles and false precepts be brought into
the sanctuary? Shall antichrist be respected? Shall the true doctrines and principles given us
by God, which have made us what we are, be ignored? Shall God's instrumentality, the
publishing house, become a mere political, worldly institution? This is directly where the
enemy, through blinded, unconsecrated men, is leading us. {CW 95.3}

At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus,
saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of
heaven?And Jesus called a little child unto him,
and set him in the midst of them, And said,
Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted,
and become as little children, ye shall not enter
into the kingdom of heaven.Whosoever
therefore shall humble himself as this little
child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of
heaven.

31. "This spirit of RIVALRY is NOT FROM God, but from
beneath." ~ Manuscript Releases Volume Fourteen [Nos.
1081-1135], Page 290
Satan delights in war, for it excites the worst passions of
the soul and then sweeps into eternity its victims steeped
in vice and blood. It is his object to incite the nations to
war against one another, for he can thus divert the minds
of the people from the work of preparation to stand in the
day of God. The Great Controversy, pp. 589, 590.
“The leaven of TRUTH, hidden in the heart, WILL NOT
PRODUCE THE SPIRIT OF RIVALRY, the love of

32. What did our Guide, Jesus Christ, say concerning COMPETITIVE sports?
“I was told by my GUIDE : “Look ye, and behold the IDOLATRY OF MY PEOPLE, to whom I have
been speaking, rising up early, and presenting to them their DANGERS . I looked that they
should bring forth fruit.” There were some who were striving for the mastery, EACH TRYING
TO EXCELL THE OTHER in the swift running of their bicycles. There was a SPIRIT OF STRIFE and
CONTENTION among them as to which should be the greatest. The SPIRIT WAS SIMULAR TO
THAT MANIFESTED IN THE BASEBALL GAMES on the college ground. Said my GUIDE: “THESE
THINGS ARE AN OFFENSE TO GOD. Both near and afar off souls are perishing for the bread of
life and the water of salvation.” ~Testimonies for the Church Volume 8, Page 52

34. The light has been given me that tremendous pressures will be
brought upon every Seventh-day Adventist with whom the world
can get into close connection. Those who seek the education that
the world esteems so highly, are gradually led further and further
from the principles of truth until they become educated worldlings.
At what a price have they gained their education! They have parted
with the Holy Spirit of God. They have chosen to accept what the
world calls knowledge in the place of the truths which God has
committed to men through His ministers and prophets and apostles.
And there are some who, having secured this worldly
education, think that they can introduce it into our
schools. But let me tell you that you must not take what
the world calls the higher education and bring it into our
schools and sanitariums and churches. We need to
understand these things. I speak to you definitely. This
must not be done. {FE 535.3}

35. The kingdoms of this world have not yet become the
kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ. Do not deceive
yourselves; be wide awake, and move rapidly, for the night

knowledge of God, and know more of His requirements,knowledge of God, and know more of His requirements,
when they enter upon a course of studywhen they enter upon a course of study than when theythan when they
graduategraduate.
They become inspired with an ambition to become learned
men, and are encouraged to add to their studies until they
become infatuated. They make their books their idol, and
are willing to sacrifice health and spirituality in order to
obtain an education. They limit the time which they should
devote to prayer, and fail to improve the opportunities
which they have had to do good, and do not communicate
light and knowledge.
They fail to put to use the knowledge which
they have already obtained, and do not
advance in the science of winning souls.
Missionary work becomes less and less
desirable, while the passion to excel in book-
knowledge increases abnormally
In pursuing their studies, they separate from the
God of wisdom. Some congratulate them on their
advance, and encourage them to take degree after
degree, even though they are less qualified to do
the work of God after Christ’s manner of instruction
than they were before they entered the school...
Fundamental Of Christian Education page 355

36. Education Among the Reformers—The early reformers
realized that they could not hope to succeed if their children
were educated by Roman Catholic teachers. Luther says that
“The Bible must be studied; teachers must be provided;
schools must be established.” “He felt that to strengthen the
reformation it was requisite to work on the young, to improve
schools, and to propagate through Christendom the
knowledge necessary for a profound study of the Holy
Scriptures. This, accordingly, was one of the objects of his life;
he saw it in particular at the period which we have reached,
and wrote to the councilors of all the cities of Germany calling
on them to found Christian schools.”—D’Aubigne’s “History of
the Reformation,” bk. 10, chap. 9. PH081 37.1
Education in the Formation of the Beast and Image—
The early reformers found it necessary to have their
own courses of study, text-books, teachers, methods,
principles, etc. They separated themselves completely
from the popular schools of the day. It required courage
and faith in those days to take such a stand, and it will
require even more courage and faith for those who are
preparing for translation to take the stand which the
Testimonies are pleading for them to take. They knew
that if their children should go to the schools where the
popular education was given they would receive the
mark of the papacy, or the beast. PH081 37.2

37. A Law in Intellectual and Spiritual Worlds.--It is a law both of the
intellectual and the spiritual nature that by beholding we become
CHANGED. The mind gradually adapts itself to the subjects upon
which it is allowed to dwell. It becomes assimilated to that which it
is accustomed to love and reverence.--GC 555 (1888). {1MCP 331.1}
By uniting with the world and
partaking of its spirit, they have
come to view matters in nearly
the same light (GC-608)
Through perverted
educational processes he is
doing his utmost to obscure
heaven's light. {MH 439.1}

38. Those who are living up to the light at the present time, will
see, even more clearly, that if their children continue to go to
the popular schools, they will receive such principles as will
compel them to assist in giving life to the Image to the Beast.
Any one who has a knowledge of the Third Angel’s Message,
and who will take the trouble to examine the studies and
methods of the popular system of education, can see that the
books are filled with those errors which will oblige those who
are receiving their education from them to take the dreadful
step which will bring upon the world a religious and civil
darkness, greater than has ever been known before. PH081
37.2
Complete Separation—The command found in Revelation
18:4, “Come out of her, my people,” means to come out of
those institutions which will place in the minds of our young
people, principles which are apt to make them join the class
of worshipers of which we read in 2 Timothy 3:5: “Having a
form of godliness, but denying the power thereof.” as
faithful watchmen, we should be just as desirous of getting
our children out of the popular schools as we are to call the
older people out of the popular churches. The popular
churches are only a product of worldly education, so to get
at the root of the matter, we must separate ourselves from
that which creates the condition in which all the religious
world, at present, finds itself. PH081 38.1

39. Now, as never before, we need to understand the true science of
education. If we fail to understand this, we shall never have a place
in the kingdom of God. "This is life eternal, that they might know
Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent"
(John 17:3). If this is the price of heaven, shall not our education be
conducted on these lines?--Christian Educator, Aug, 1897. {1MCP
53.2}

40. We know that there are many schools which afford opportunities for
education in the sciences, but we desire something more than this. The
science of true education is the truth, which is to be so deeply
impressed on the soul that it cannot be obliterated by the error that
everywhere abounds.
The third angel's message is truth, and light, and power, and to
present it so that right impressions will be made upon hearts should be
the work of our schools as well as of our churches, of the teacher as
well as of the minister. Those who accept positions as educators should
prize more and more the revealed will of God so plainly and strikingly
presented in Daniel and the Revelation. {6T 131.1}

42. yet these remedies are going out of date because their skillful use requires
work that the people do not appreciate. Fresh air, exercise, pure water, and
clean, sweet premises, are within the reach of all, with but little expense; but
drugs are expensive, both in the outlay of means, and the effect produced
upon the system. {CD 301.2}
There are many ways of practicing the healing art; but there is only one
way that Heaven approves. God's remedies are the simple agencies of

properties. Pure air and water, cleanliness, a proper diet, purity of life, and
a firm trust in God, are remedies for the want of which thousands are

49. "shooting the Pope—It's like shooting God.
“..George J. Church et. al, "Hands of Terrorism," TIME (May 25, 1981)
In 1512 Christopher Marcellus said this to Pope Julius II:
Take care that we lose not that salvation, that life and breath
which thou hast given us, for thou art our shepherd, thou art our
physician, thou art our governor, thou art our husbandman,
thou art finally another God on earth.
We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty

Christendom (Rome: 1894).

speaking to an ordinary man but to 'ANOTHER CHRIST,' He hears

-William Doyle "Shall I be a priest" pp 14, 15
“The priest does not only declare that the sinner is forgiven, but he really
forgives him...so great is the power of the priest, that the judgments of
heaven itself are subject to his decision.”
The Catholic Priest, by Michael Meuller, Kreuzer Bros., 1876.
"Don't go to God for forgiveness of sins, come to me.“
-Pope John Paul II, LA Times, 12-12-1984
"And God himself is obliged to abide by the judgment of his priest and either
not to pardon or to pardon, according as they refuse to give absolution,
provided the penitent is capable of it.“
-Liguori, «Duties and Dignities of the Priest», p.27

54. MARK OF THE BEAST
DEATH
NO BUY, NO SELL NO EARTHLY SUPPORT
Dr. Marianus de Luca, a Jesuit, formerly a professor of Canon Law at
the Gregorian University in Rome:
‘‘The Catholic Church has the right and duty to kill heretics because
it is by fire and sword that heresy can be extirpated. Mass
excommunication is derided by heretics. If they are imprisoned or
exiled they corrupt others. The only recourse is to put them to death.
Repentance cannot be allowed to save civil criminals; for the highest
good of the church is the duty of the faith, and this cannot be
preserved unless heretics are put to death’’

86. Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the
Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day,
the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. "The Day
of the Lord" (dies Dominica) was chosen, not from any
directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church's
sense of its own power. The day of resurrection, the day of
Pentecost, fifty days later, came on the first day of the week.
So this would be the new Sabbath. People who think that the
Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically
become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy.
