I am A Seventh-Day Adventist Protestant Living In the Last Days of Earths History. Happy Sabbath Beloved. I Pray You Prayerfully Seek God In Sincerity, that You WILL BE FED UP LIKE I WAS AND DETERMINE TO TRY(Seek And Yes, Test) GOD ACCORDING TO THE STANDARD, CONSTANTS, CONTROLS, & PROCEDURE God Gives UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF His INFALLIBILTY, HIS EXISTENCE, & HIS FAITHFULNESS TO NEVER LIE. THUS EVERY PROMISE YOU FIND IN THE BIBLE CAN BE APPLIED & EXPERIENCED, THROUGH THE HUMILITY OF PRAYER TO HIM AND FAITH IN HIM TO HELP FULFILL THE CONDITIONS OF EACH PROMISE That You might Experience FOR YOURSELF THAT GOD IS REAL, That God Loves You, And That God Has A Plan And Purpose For Your LIFE. SO GET ANNOYED. GET FED UP. GET FRUSTRATED He has Promised That If You Draw Nigh To Him He Will Draw Nigh To You. For IT IS WRITTEN Psalm 145:8 THE LORD IS NIGH UNTO ALL THEM That CALL Upon Him, TO ALL THAT CALL UPON HIM IN TRUTH. Chapter 42—Our Denominational Name I was shown in regard to the remnant people of God taking a name. Two classes were presented before me. One class embraced the great bodies of professed Christians. They were trampling upon God’s law and bowing to a papal institution. They were keeping the first day of the week as the Sabbath of the Lord. The other class, who were but few in number, were bowing to the great Lawgiver. They were keeping the fourth commandment. The peculiar and prominent features of their faith were the observance of the seventh day, and waiting for the appearing of our Lord from heaven.{1T 223.1} The conflict is between the requirements of God and the requirements of the beast. The first day, a papal institution which directly contradicts the fourth commandment, is yet to be made a test by the two-horned beast. And then the fearful warning from God declares the penalty of bowing to the beast and his image. They shall drink the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of His indignation.{1T 223.2} No name which we can take will be appropriate but that which accords with our profession and expresses our faith and marks us a peculiar people. The name Seventh-day Adventist is a standing rebuke to the Protestant world. Here is the line of distinction between the worshipers of God and those who worship the beast and receive his mark. The great conflict is between the commandments of God and the requirements of the beast. It is because the saints are keeping all ten of the commandments that the dragon makes war upon them. If they will lower the standard and yield the peculiarities of their faith, the dragon will be at peace; but they excite his ire because they have dared to raise the standard and unfurl their banner in opposition to the Protestant world, who are worshiping the institution of papacy.{1T 223.3} The name Seventh-day Adventist carries the true features of our faith in front, and will convict the inquiring mind. Like an arrow from the Lord’s quiver, it will wound the transgressors of God’s law, and will lead to repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.{1T 224.1} I was shown that almost every fanatic who has arisen, who wishes to hide his sentiments that he may lead away others, claims to belong to the church of God. Such a name would at once excite suspicion; for it is employed to conceal the most absurd errors. This name is too indefinite for the remnant people of God. It would lead to the supposition that we had a faith which we wished to cover up.{1T 224.2}
