A WAKEUP CALL to all Americans: Civil War Imminent in United States

A WAKEUP CALL to all Americans: Civil War Imminent in United States | Civil War in time of trouble “Just as soon as the people of God are sealed in their foreheads—it is not any seal or mark that can be seen, but a settling into the truth, both intellectually and spiritually, so they cannot be moved—just as soon as God’s people are sealed and prepared for the shaking, it will come.” 4BC 1161. "For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written FOR OUR LEARNING, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope." Romans 15:4. "The history of the wilderness life of Israel was chronicled for the benefit of the Israel of God to the close of time. The record of God's dealings with the wanderers of the desert in all their marchings to and fro, in their exposure to hunger, thirst, and weariness, and in the striking manifestations of His power for their relief, is fraught with WARNING AND INSTRUCTION for His people in all ages. The varied experience of the Hebrews was a school of preparation for their promised home in Canaan. GOD WOULD HAVE HIS PEOPLE IN THESE DAYS REVIEW with a humble heart and teachable spirit the TRIALS THROUGH WHICH ANCIENT ISRAEL PASSED, that they may be instructed in their preparation for the heavenly Canaan." Patriarchs and Prophets 293. "Brethren, we must sink the shaft deep in the mine of truth. You may question matters with yourselves and with one another, if you only do it in the right spirit; but too often self is large, and as soon as investigation begins, an unchristian spirit is manifested. This is just what Satan delights in, but we should come with a humble heart to know for ourselves what is truth. The time is coming when we shall be separated and scattered, and each one of us will have to stand without the privilege of communion with those of like precious faith; and how can you stand unless God is by your side, and you know that He is leading and guiding you? Whenever we come to investigate Bible truth, the Master of assemblies is with us. The Lord does not leave the ship one moment to be steered by ignorant pilots. We may receive our orders from the Captain of our salvation."-- Review and Herald, March 25, 1890. "We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Many of the prophecies are about to be fulfilled in quick succession Every element of power is about to be set to work. Past history will be repeated; old controversies will arouse to new life, and peril will beset God's people on every side. Intensity is taking hold of the human family. It is permeating everything upon the earth." -- Testimonies to Ministers, p. 116. No one knows the day or the hour of the coming of our Lord. However, He has blessed us with His Word that we may study and remain watchful that when we see the signs He has warned us of (Matthew 24:15), we should know that His coming draweth nigh. The day nor the hour that no man knows is referring to the close of probation first for the house of God (those who PROFESS a pure faith=virgin) and then for the whole world. "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still." Revelation 22:11 THE LAMPS WHICH ALL THE VIRGINS HAVE = THE WORD OF GOD (Rev 19:13) = Jesus the Son of God the Father. Psalm 119:105: - “Thy word (Jesus the Son of God) [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Speaking of the (DAN. 12:1) close of probation in Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." Speaking of the (DAN. 12:1) close of probation in Mark 13:32 "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father." (Jesus says in John 5:30 "I can of mine own self do nothing." Speaking of the (DAN. 12:1) close of probation in Acts 1:7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. "If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief; and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee." [REV. 3:3.] How perilous is the condition of those, who, growing weary of their watch [like the foolish virgins], turn to the attractions of the world. While the man of business is absorbed in the pursuit of gain, while the pleasure-lover is seeking indulgence, while the daughter of fashion is arranging her adornments,--it may be in that hour the Judge of all the earth will pronounce the sentence, "Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting."” {4SP 315.1} NOTE: - This reference applies Revelation 3:3 to the Investigative Judgment, and the sentence of “found wanting” will be past upon the professed followers of Christ who backslide to the world. The text in Revelation, harmonizes with Jesus’ statement in the last verse of the Ten Virgin Parable: - Matthew 25:13: - “Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.” In the parable, the Bridegroom comes while the foolish virgins attempt to get the oil; the wise being ready go into the marriage, go into the festal hall with the Bridegroom, who then shuts the door. This must be the door of probation that is being closed. (Only the Son of God can close this door) All this takes place AFTER the Midnight Cry has been given. Mathew 25:10: - “And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.” All this is further evidence that in the Parable, the coming of the Bridegroom is referring to Christ’s coming to Judgment, and NOT to his 2nd coming in the clouds of heaven! The belief of the evil servant - “My lord delayeth his coming”, is indeed a peace and safety message, which produces the foolish virgins. Matthew 25:5 - 7: - “While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.” "At that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time; and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book." [DAN. 12:1.] {GC88 613.1} "When the third angel's message closes, mercy no longer pleads for the guilty inhabitants of the earth. The people of God have accomplished their work. They have received "the latter rain," "the refreshing from the presence of the Lord," and they are prepared for the trying hour before them. Angels are hastening to and fro in Heaven. An angel returning from the earth announces that his work is done; the final test has been brought upon the world, and all who have proved themselves loyal to the divine precepts have received "the seal of the living God." {GC88 613.2} The state of the people today represented by the foolish virgins, is also spoken of as the Laodicean state "When the third angel's message closes, mercy no longer pleads for the guilty inhabitants of the earth. The people of God have accomplished their work. They have received "the latter rain," "the refreshing from the presence of the Lord," and they are prepared for the trying hour before them. Angels are hastening to and fro in Heaven. An angel returning from the earth announces that his work is done; the final test has been brought upon the world, and all who have proved themselves loyal to the divine precepts have received "the seal of the living God." {GC88 613.2}
