IS HE AN ANGEL? Yesterday 23 October 2014 while driving home, I had a brief stopover in a supermarket to get some toiletries as I was stepping down from the car a young man walked to me with a bible in his hand and look directly into my eyes and said “young man you know Jesus is on his way get ready” Then I reply “yes I know his coming is imminent” he turned back once again and nod his head and said more imminent than you think. You see, there’s something strange about this young man, as I looked at him I noticed that his clothing’s are dirty, his sandals looks old and worn, his hairs un-kept, at first I thought he’s a beggar, who solicit help, not after when I’ve handed him some bills and he said no and walked away on a second thought I turned to take a proper look on this strange preacher. But he couldn’t be found, has he just disappears within a twinkle of an eye? I turned round and ask a lady standing with her daughter by my side where the man came from and which way has he taken? I don’t know what you’re talking about, was the lady’s reply, then I said to her the man that was standing at very spot you pointed I should park the car. She said “Nobody was standing there it’s either your hallucinating” I replied “I’m not hallucinating! Then she said “ it then means you’ve seen an Angel”. After I had this experience and went home these where the questions in my mind; what am I? Am I a Christian, or am I not? Is my heart renewed? Has the transforming grace of God moulded my character? Are my sins repented of? Are they confessed? Are they forgiven? Am I one with Christ as he is one with the Father? Do I hate what I once loved? Do I now love what I once hated? Do I count all things but loss for the Excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus? Do I feel I am the purchased possession of Jesus Christ, and that every hour I must consecrate myself to his service? We are standing upon the threshold of great and solemn events. The whole earth is to be lightened with the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the channels of the great deep. Prophecies are being fulfilled, and stormy times are before us. Old controversies which have apparently been hushed for a long time is now revived, and new controversies springing up; new and old commingle, and this will take place right early. The angels are holding the four winds, that they shall not blow, until the specified work of warning is given to the world; but the storm is gathering, the clouds are loading, ready to burst upon the world, and to many it will be as a thief in the night. SUNDAY LAW Many smiled and would not believe when we told them, twenty and thirty years ago, that the Sunday would be urged upon all the world, and a law be made to compel its observance, and force conscience. We see it being fulfilled. All that God has said of the future will surely come to pass; not one thing will fail of all that he has spoken. Protestantism is now reaching hands across the gulf to clasp hands with papacy, and a confederacy is being formed to trample out of sight the Sabbath of the fourth commandment. All heaven is represented to me as watching the unfolding of events. A crisis is to be revealed in the great and prolonged controversy in the government of God on earth. Something great and decisive is to take place and that right early. If any delay, the character of God and his throne will be compromised. The armory of heaven is open; all the universe of God and its equipments are ready. One word has justice to speak, and there will be terrific representations upon the earth, of the wrath of God. There will be voices and thundering and lightnings and earthquakes and universal desolation. Every movement in the universe of heaven is to prepare the world for the great crisis. Intensity is taking possession of every earthly element; and as a people who have had great light and wonderful knowledge, many of them are represented by the five sleeping virgins with their lamps, but no oil in their vessels; cold, senseless, with a feeble, waning piety. While a new life is being diffused and is springing up from beneath and taking fast hold of all Satans agencies, preparatory to the last great conflict and struggle, a new light and life and power is descending from on high, and taking possession of Gods people who are not dead, as many now are, in trespasses and sins. The people who will now see what is soon to come upon us by what is being transacted before us, will no longer trust in human inventions, and will feel that the Holy Spirit must be recognized, received, presented before the people, that they may contend for the glory of God, and work everywhere in the byways and highways of life, for the saving of the souls of their fellow-men. The only rock that is sure and steadfast is the Rock of Ages. Those only who build on this Rock are secure. {SpTA01b 39.1} Those who are carnally minded now, notwithstanding the warnings given of God in his word and through the testimonies of his Spirit, will never unite with the holy family of the redeemed. They are sensual, debased in thought, and abominable in the sight of God. They have never been sanctified through the truth. They are not partakers of the divine nature, have never overcome self and the world with its affections and lusts. These characters are all through our churches, and as the result the churches are weak and sickly and ready to die. May God help us in Jesus Name. Amen!
