Christ the way, the truth and the life

Christ says "I am the way the truth and the life." Laodiceans interpret that to mean once we have Christ we don't need His doctrines to be saved." John 14:6. That is wrong sided reasoning.
Did not Bro. Paul tell us "16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee." 1John 4:16
And Bro. John said " Whosoever transgresseth and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son." 2John9
And the master Jesus said "the words that I speak to you they are spirit and they are life" John 6:63
And When Christ says to Laodicea in Revelation 3:20 "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." It means that they need to get the true doctrines of Christ, the truths of the gospel (gold tried in the fire - Rev.3:18 & 1Peter 1:7) and abide in it as their personal experience so that He will enter the door of their heart.
However the eyesalve of Revelation 3:20 of spiritual discernment by the Holy Spirit received when you repent and believe is lacking, so blindness abounds.
And when they suppose to be wearing white raiment of Righteousness within which indicate true holiness and sinfreeness within by the life of Christ within , they wear dirty robes. And expect Christ to somehow take His White Robe and cover over their experience of filthiness that God would pretend not to see their filthiness instead of taking away their filthy robes in giving them a new holy experience - 2Cor.5:17.
Did not Yahweh say to the Angel in Zechariah 3:4 "Take away the filthy garments .... And I will clothe thee with a change of garment".
Facebook friends bare in mind the truth of God was presented to the masses by Jesus but the majority received it not because they loved not the truth that they be saved - 2Thes.2:10 but had pleasure in unrighteousnrss - 2Thes.2:12. Thus be careful to find yourself in the little company that will receive the Saviour, the King of saints into their heart. Be diligent to the truth and not Lukewarm as are typical Laodiceans.
Behold He says " I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." Rev.3:20
P.S. The picture with the man being clothed without changing his dirty clothes is what is taught today in Laodicea and was the picture on the cover of two quarterlies.

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...

DID ELLEN G. WHITE EVER CALL THE S.D.A. CHURCH BABYLON IN ANY WAY? BY NYRON MEDINA

In the Bible is brought to view the following statement: “And after these things I  saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was  lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all  nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the  earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are  waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice  from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her  sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:1-4. Of this Scripture  we are told that it speaks about the Church, fallen because of sins. “In amazement  they [the people...

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina

IMPUTED AND IMPARTED RIGHTEOUSNESS  EXPLAINED By Nyron Medina Statement of the case 1. Imputed and imparted righteousness are usually seen as different things in apostate  theology; they are presented as happening either successively or at the very same time,  but they are presented as two different salvific functions.  “In this most illuminating paragraph, the writer traces two distinct phases in the process  of our salvation—two complementary aspects of the plan of redemption—which are in a  certain sense successive, but at the same time simultaneous; two different operations of  the same righteousness of Christ, which alone can satisfy the demands of divine justice  and make saints of us. Let us analyze in outline form these two phases:  A. THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST BY WHICH WE ARE JUSTIFIED.  1. It is imputed to us, which is, credited, granted freely without our earning it.  2. It provides our r...
