  4. MATT 24:14 GAL 1:6-9

  5. ECCL 1:9

  6. 5T p. 707.2 I have been shown that many who profess to have a knowledge of present truth know not what they believe. They do not understand the evidences of their faith. They have no just appreciation of the work for the present time. When the time of trial shall come, there are men now preaching to others who will find, upon examining the positions they hold, that there are many things for which they can give no satisfactory reason. Until thus tested they knew not their great ignorance. And there are many in the church who take it for granted that they understand what they believe; but, until controversy arises, they do not know their own weakness. When separated from those of like faith and compelled to stand singly and alone to explain their belief, they will be surprised to see how confused are their ideas of what they had accepted as truth. Certain it is that there has been among us a departure from the living God and a turning to men, putting human in place of divine wisdom.

  7. LK 14:26 MATT 10:37

  8. MAYDAY BIBLICAL ARGUMENTS—TRUE GOSPEL • EPH 2:8-10 DENOMINATIONS—HARMONY! • HEB 11:6 WE BELIEVE THAT TOO! • ISA 8:20 LAW & TESTIMONY—(613 LAWS) JESUS IS ALL THAT MATTERS… • COL 2:16-18; JAS 2:17-20

  9. REV 14:6-14 & MATT 24:14 HOW DO YOU KNOW/TELL…THAT THESE GOSPEL MESSAGES ARE NOT PERVERTED MESSAGES? ACTS 15 PRESENTS A GENERAL CONFERENCE ISSUE—JERUSALEM: CIRCUMCISION ASSUMPTIVE VS. EVIDENTIAL FACT HOW DID JESUS MAKE THIS DISTINCTION BETWEEN TRUE & FALSE? MATT 7;16-20

  10. WHAT IS THE FRUIT IN MATT 24:14 WHAT DISTINGUISES THE 3 ANGELS’ GOSPEL MESSAGES FROM ANY OTHER FALSE MAYDAY CALLS? REV 14:6, 7, 14, 15 REV 22:11-14 REV 1:5, 8 WHAT, ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, IS THE HARVEST? MATT 13:39

  11. WHY DID THE WORLD NOT COME TO AN END IN PAUL’S DAY?COL 1:23 ISA 13:6-9; MAL 4:1-3; 2 THESS 2:1-3 HOW DO WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE EMBRACED A FALSE GOSPEL MESSAGE MAYDAY CALL? ASK YOURSELF: DOES THE GOSPEL MESSAGE(S) THAT YOUR CHURCH (MINISTER-PREACHER-TEACHER-ETC) PREACHES BRING ABOUT THE HARVEST—END OF THE WORLD? ANS. REV 14:14, 15 N:B: THIS IS THE GOSPEL THAT PAUL PREACHED TO THE GENTILES… REBUTTALS: GAL 4:16; MIC 3:11; 2 CHRON 18:7; ISA 4:1; 2 THESS 2:10-12; HAB 2:15; GAL 6:7; 1:10; PHIL 1:15-18 JN 17:17; PS 119:105; JN 4:22-24; JN 16:13 2 COR 11:13-15 & ACTS 16:16-20 HEB 4:12

  12. N:B:PREACHERS-TEACHERS-PASTORS-ELDERS-PRESIDENTS-PRIESTS-BISHOPS-REVERENDS-ETC (READ NEHEMIAH) DON’T COMPROMISE CAANAN’S BLESSINGS FOR EGYPTIAN METHODS: ALL FOR A BOWL OF LENTILES…? LEADERS MUST GET ON THEIR KNEES BEFORE THEY STAND ON THEIR FEET. LOOSING THE GAME DOES NOT MEAN LOOSING THE CHAMPIONSHIP. LEADERS ARE CALLED TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT NOT WHAT ISFASHIONABLE. LEADERS DON’T QUIT BECAUSE THEY THINK THE PRESENT SITUATION LOOKS LIKE THE FUTURE. LEADERS MUST GIVE UPGOOD PLANS FOR GOD’S PLANS. LEADERS MUST FOLLOW GOD’S TEMPLATE NOT MAN’S TEMPERAMENTS. LEADERS MUST KNOW WHEN TO KEEP IT (SECRET) BETWEEN THEM AND GOD. A GOOD LEADER DOES THINGSFOR OTHERS;WHILE A GREAT LEADER DOES THINGSWITH OTHERS. LEADERS MUST FOCUS IN THE FACE OF CONFUSION: THEY MUST LIVE THEIR ENEMIES TO GOD. EFFECTIVE LEADERS LEARN HOW TO MULTI-TASK… A GOOD LEADER STAYS ON THE JOB UNTIL GOD’S WORK GETS DONE. A GOOD LEADER IS LIKE A JELLY FISH…HE IS VERY PLIABLE. BUT A GREAT LEADER IS A WARRIOR—HE HAS A BACKBONE. HE IS NOT A WHIMP!

  13. # 1 FAITH WITHOUT WORKS MATT 7:21-24 • WE NEED RIGHT GOSPEL MESSAGE CALL • TO TAKE THE RIGHT MEASURES • TO COORDINATE THE RIGHT MARINE LOCATION • TO PROVIDE THE RIGHT MANPOWER • TO GO THROUGH THE RIGHT MEDIUM—CHANNEL • TO PRODUCE THE RIGHT RESPONSE • DO WE UNDERSTAND THE 3 ANGELS’ GOSPEL MESSAGES MAYDAY CALLS? • MAYDAY PASSENGERS MUST HID TO WARNINGS AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS--AS GOD’S LAST-DAY MAYDAY CALLS—IF PASSENGERS WANT TO BE SAVE.

  14. # 2POWERFUL YET POWERLESS ROM 1:16 & 1 THESS 1:5 (GOSPEL MESSAGE CALL VS. GOSPEL POWER BALL) ACTS 8:9-11, 13,17-23; MATT 28:19, 20 • POWER STATION: POWER GRID POWER OUTLET ARE WE WALKING IN THE POWER OF THOSE THREE ANGELS’ GOSPEL MESSAGES? • POWER PLUG: POWER OUTAGE JN 15:5; JN 18:4-6; LK 22:3, 4 • POWER CONDUCTOR: JN 15-17; 20:21,22; DAN 3:19, 25

  15. 5T p. 213.2 There are many even among those who teach the truth to others who will not receive the seal of God in their foreheads. They had the light of truth, they knew their Master's will, they understood every point of our faith, but they had not corresponding works. These who were so familiar with prophecy and the treasures of divine wisdom should have acted their faith. They should have commanded their households after them, that by a well-ordered family they might present to the world the influence of the truth upon the human heart.

  16. HERE’S A DIRE WARNING THE VERY GOSPEL THAT IS DESIGN TO SAVE US COULD CONDEMN US! MATT 7:22-26 & JAS 4:17

  17. WHAT IS THE BIBLICAL DEFINITION OF SIN…? PRO 8:13 & EZE 33:31 FROWARD? [L. versus: turned or looking from.] • Perverse, that is, turning from, with aversion or reluctance; not willing to yield or comply with what is required; unyielding; ungovernable; refractory; disobedient; peevish; as a froward child. They are a very froward generation, children in whom is no fair. Deuteronomy 32:20. • FROWARDNESS, n. Perverseness; reluctance to yield or comply; disobedience… AMOS 5:14, 15

  18. HOW WILLING ARE WE TO EXPERIENCE GOD’S LOVE? RESOLUTION—CLEAN-UP HOUSE: ROM 12:1-2 When we are tempted to place our affections on any earthly object that has a tendency to absorb our love, we must seek grace to turn from it, and not allow it to come between us and our God. We want to keep before the mind's eye the mansions which Jesus has gone to prepare for us. We must not allow our houses and lands, our business transactions and worldly enterprises, to come between us and our God. RH, JUNE 23, 1896 • TWO OR THREE JOBS! • WE HAVE NO TIME FOR DEVOTION—SKIP WORSHIP • NO OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW GOD’S LOVE—WE CAN’T LOVE GOD • AND IF YOU DON’T KNOW GOD/SPEND TIME WITH GOD, YOU WILL NATURALLY LOVE WHAT HE HATES…

  19. HAVE THE PEOPLE (SINNERS IN ZION) GOTTEN IT YET? HOW MANY TIMES DO WE KEEP RESPONDING TO THE SAME-OLD-SIN-APPEAL? WHAT HAPPENED TO JESUS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS—WAS HE SO CRIPPLED THAT HE COULDN’T GIVE US POWER TO OVERCOME? IS IT HE—OR IS IT ME THAT THE PROBLEM? 3 ANGELS’ GOSPEL MAYDAY—EXPERIENCE? When we know God as it is our privilege to know Him, our life will be a life of continual obedience. Through an appreciation of the character of Christ, through communion with God, sin will become hateful to us. DA, p. 668 ROM 5:5 & HEB 6:4-6

  20. OUR EXPERIENCE WITH GOD LEADS US TO KEEP HIS COMMANDS REV 14:12 ASK TOUGH QUESTIONS: • WHAT IS ROBBING OUR TIME AWAY FROM KNOWING/SPENDING TIME WITH GOD? • HOW DO WE PROCEED WITH GOD’S HELP TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM? • WHAT IMMEDIATE DECISIONS MUST WE MAKE AS A RESULT OF OUR LOVE TOWARD FOLLOWING CHRIST—COME WHAT MAY?

  21. THE SPIRITUAL DOMINO EFFECT • AS WE GET TO KNOW HIM • WE CAN LEARN TO LOVE HIM • AND WE WILL HATE WHAT HE HATES… • AND WE WILL NATURALLY LOVE WHAT HE LOVES. • AND WE WILL DO WHATEVER HE (JESUS) COMMANDS OF US… DO YOU KNOW WHAT GOD’S COMMANDMENTS ARE? N:B: MOST OF US THINK WE KNOW—BUT WE DON’T! PS 119:172

  22. THE THIRD ANGEL’S GOSPEL MESSAGE: MAYDAY CALL OF HOPE & LOVE. REV 14:9-13 # 3 WHAT IS GOD’S RIGHTEOUSNESS?

  23. DEUT 6:25 ROM 10:1-4

  24. FW p. 70-71. 2,3 And what is it to believe? It is to fully accept that Jesus Christ died as our sacrifice; that He became the curse for us, took our sins upon Himself, and imputed unto us His own righteousness. Therefore we claim this righteousness of Christ, we believe it, and it is our righteousness. He is our Saviour. He saves us because He said He would. Are we going to go into all the explanations as to how He can save us? Do we have the goodness in ourselves that will make us better and cleanse us from the spots and stains of sin, enabling us then to come to God? We simply cannot do it.

  25. Don't you know that when the young man came to Christ and asked Him what he should do that he might have life, Christ told him to keep the commandments. Said he, "I have done it." Now the Lord wanted to bring this lesson right home. "What lack I yet? I am perfectly whole" (Matthew 19:20). He did not see that there was a thing the matter with him or why he should not have eternal life. "I have done it," he said. Now Christ touches the plague spot of his heart. He says, "Come, follow Me, and ye shall have life."

  26. What did he do? He turned away very sorrowful, for he had great possessions. Now he had not kept the commandments at all. He should have accepted Jesus Christ as his Saviour and taken hold of His righteousness. Then, as he had the righteousness of Christ, he could keep the law of God. The young ruler could not trample that law under his feet. He must respect it; he must love it. Then Christ would bring divine power to combine with man's efforts. Christ took upon Himself humanity for us. He clothed His divinity, and divinity and humanity were combined. He showed that that law which Satan declared could not be kept, could be kept. Christ took humanity to stand here in our world, to show that Satan had lied. He took humanity upon Himself to demonstrate that with divinity and humanity combined, man could keep the law of Jehovah. Separate humanity from divinity, and you can try to work out your own righteousness from now till Christ comes, and it will be nothing but a failure.

  27. By living faith, by earnest prayer to God, and depending upon Jesus' merits, we are clothed with His righteousness, and we are saved. "Oh, yes," some say, "we are saved in doing nothing. In fact, I am saved. I need not keep the law of God. I am saved by the righteousness of Jesus Christ." Christ came to our world to bring all men back to allegiance to God. To take the position that you can break God's law, for Christ has done it all, is a position of death, for you are as verily a transgressor as anyone. Then what is it? It is to hear and to see that with the righteousness of Christ which you hold by faith, righteousness supplied by His efforts and His divine power, you can keep the commandments of God. {FW 71.3}

  28. 1 JN 1:9 & JN 15:11 DON’T BE SATISFIED WITH JUST THE GOSPEL MESSAGE MAYDAY CALL… WHAT WE TRULY NEED IS THE GOSPEL POWER BALL!

  29. # 4WHAT IS MAN’S RIGHTEOUSNESS? APOTHEOSIS…? ELEVATION TO DIVINE STATUS GEN 2:20-25

  30. GEN 3:5,6-10 • GEN 1:26 • PS 104:1-2 • JN 9:5 • MIC 7:9 • GEN 3:21 • ISA 61:10 & 64:6 • REV 3:14-18

  31. HOW DO WE SURRENDER THIS APRON—MAN’S RIGHTEOUSNESS TO GOD? Many are inquiring, "How am I to make the surrender of myself to God?" You desire to give yourself to Him, but you are weak in moral power, in slavery to doubt, and controlled by the habits of your life of sin. Your promises and resolutions are like ropes of sand. You cannot control your thoughts, your impulses, your affections. The knowledge of your broken promises and forfeited pledges weakens your confidence in your own sincerity, and causes you to feel that God cannot accept you; but you need not despair. What you need to understand is the true force of the will. This is the governing power in the nature of man, the power of decision, or of choice. Everything depends on the right action of the will. The power of choice God has given to men; it is theirs to exercise. SC, p. 47, 48

  32. You cannot change your heart, you cannot of yourself give to God its affections; but you can choose to serve Him. You can give Him your will; He will then work in you to will and to do according to His good pleasure. Thus your whole nature will be brought under the control of the Spirit of Christ; your affections will be centered upon Him, your thoughts will be in harmony with Him. Desires for goodness and holiness are right as far as they go; but if you stop here, they will avail nothing. Many will be lost while hoping and desiring to be Christians. They do not come to the point of yielding the will to God. They do not now choose to be Christians. Through the right exercise of the will, an entire change may be made in your life. By yielding up your will to Christ, you ally yourself with the power that is above all principalities and powers. You will have strength from above to hold you steadfast, and thus through constant surrender to God you will be enabled to live the new life, even the life of faith.

  33. PRO 14:12 JER 17:9 2 TIM 3:1, 5 JAS 2:17-26

  34. There will be multitudes who run but cannot enter into heaven's gates; for they are not crowned unless they strive lawfully. In life and spirit and character they must come into conformity with the will of God.} Genuine faith works by love, and purifies the soul. There is a faith that has power to cleanse the life from sin. The devils believe that Christ came into this world as man's Redeemer, that he wrought mighty miracles, that he was one with the Father, that he died a shameful death to save fallen man. The devils believe that he rose from the dead, that he ascended into the heavens, and sitteth on the right hand of the Father. The devils believe that he is coming again, and that shortly, with power and great glory, taking vengeance on them that know not God and obey not the gospel. They believe all that is recorded in the Old and New Testaments. But will this faith save the demons of darkness? They have not the faith that works by love and purifies the soul. That faith, and that alone, which cleanses the soul-temple, is the genuine faith. Everything that defileth must be put away, all filthiness of the flesh and spirit must be removed from us, if we would enter in through the gates into the city. Jesus says, "If ye love me, keep my commandments." {ST, February 17, 1890 par. 5
