What was meant, by the statement to Join Thusia SDA Church is be converted in the truths of Thusia which we hold.
1Tim.3:15 tells us "But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth."
Thusia SDA represents those who God dwell in and as such are the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of truth (1Tim.3:15). So once a person has God dwelling in them they are the house of God and part of the church of the living God. And this is so as they dwell in the truth, as the church is the pillar and ground of truth.
Thusia SDA represents those who have accepted the true gospel of sinfreeness or the gospel of Righteousness by faith. Once one believes the true gospel from the heart, God imputes or esteems them righteous and makes them righteous by he abiding in their heart as their personal experience of Righteousness , Joy and peace in the Holy Spirit (Rom.14:17) this is conversion. See Rom.4:3; Rom.6:17-18. When God dwells in you after believing from the heart the form of doctrine delivered you, you are then a part of the body of Christ or God's church. Remember God's church are those he dwell in, and that indwelling is by the truths of Christ dwelling in you. Remember 2John 9 tells us only those who have the doctrines of Christ have God. So it is joining Thusia SDA is being converted in the truths we hold which allow us to have God within the heart.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

1. “The Lord in His great mercy sent a most precious message to His people through Elders Waggoner and Jones.” — TM p. 91. 2. “God gave to His servants a testimony that presented the truth as it is in Jesus, which is the third angel’s message, in clear distinct lines” — TM p. 93. 3. “The message of the gospel of His grace was to be given to the church in clear and distinct lines, that the world should no longer say that Seventh-Day Adventists talk the law, the law, but do not teach or believe Christ.

Summary Conclusion on the Righteousness of God

It is true to say that the Righteousness of God is the Law of God proper, it is equally true to say that it is Christ’s perfect obedience to the Law, for Christ is God, and all His historical obedience was righteousness. To claim that all God’s salvific administration towards sinful humanity is the Righteousness of God is to be on target, for so also do the scriptures speak. But what is the Righteousness of God that is imputed to us? What is the Righteousness of God that is given to us in Justification and is our salvation? It is none of the Righteousness of God we have referred to above. What we are looking for is a Righteousness of God that is without the Law, that is, a Righteousness of God that is APART FROM the Law of works, a Righteousness of God that is DIFFERENT to the Ten Commandments, this is the Righteousness of God that we are given in Faith for our Justification and salvation. The scriptures of the First and Second Witnesses speak of this unique Righteousness whi...
