THE WHEAT AND THE TARES

A facebook friend misused the doctrine of the wheat and the tares saying separation is at the end. Now if separation from Apostacy or from the place where you are suppose to be taught the things of God is to happen at the end (when probation is closed and no correcting of error and behaviour by truth), then the reformers were wrong to leave the Catholic church, the so call mother church.
Whether or not the true gospel of Righteousness by faith is taught to save souls seems not to matter to the Laodiceans. After all they are blind, poor and naked spiritually - Rev.3:17.
Separation of the just and the unjust for eternal life is at the end but separation from Apostacy is now before more complacency steps in. Take note of how diligent was the protest of Martin Luther compared to the attitude of those who stay in the Apostacy. You see the Laodicean don't care to move because their attitude of protest if any is exceedingly weak. Anything goes, after all they believe they are saved by a Righteousness that is placed on an account outside of them, and not God Himself as RIghteousness within the heart by the true doctrine of Christ. The false doctrine undermines the importance of having the experience of Righteousness and working out ones salvation with fear and trembling, why? as the Scripture says, because it is God that worketh in you (the Saint not the Laodicean) to will and to do of His good pleasure"

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...

MRS WHITE QUOTES ON THE 1888 MESSAGE REJECTION

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. The efficacy of the blood of Christ was to be presented to the people with freshness and power.” — TM p. 92. 4. “This is the very work which the Lord designs that the message He has given His servants, shall perform in the heart and mind of every human agent….God gave to His messengers just what the people needed.” — TM p. 95. 5. “The Lord would have these grand themes studied in our churches, and if every church member shall give entrance to the word of God it will give light and...

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...
