Standing Before Courts and Councils


Standing Before Courts and Councils

I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed. Ps. 119:46.

In the great closing work we shall meet with perplexities that we know not how to deal with, but let us not forget that the three great powers of heaven are working, that a divine hand is on the wheel, and that God will bring His purposes to pass.
The time will come when we shall be brought before councils and before thousands for His name's sake, and each one will have to give the reason of his faith.
Every position of truth taken by our people will bear the criticism of the greatest minds; the highest of the world's great men will be brought in contact with truth, and therefore every position we take should be critically examined and tested by the Scriptures. Now we seem to be unnoticed, but this will not always be. Movements are at work to bring us to the front, and if our theories of truth can be picked to pieces by historians or the world's greatest men, it will be done.
The Lord Jesus will give the disciples a tongue and wisdom that their adversaries can neither gainsay nor resist. Those who could not by reasoning overcome satanic delusions, will bear an affirmative testimony that will baffle supposedly learned men. Words will come from the lips of the unlearned with such convincing power and wisdom that conversions will be made to the truth. Thousands will be converted under their testimony.
Why should the illiterate man have this power, which the learned man has not? The illiterate one, through faith in Christ, has come into the atmosphere of pure, clear truth, while the learned man has turned away from the truth. The poor man is Christ's witness. He cannot appeal to histories or to so-called high science, but he gathers from the Word of God powerful evidence. The truth that he speaks under the inspiration of the Spirit, is so pure and remarkable and carries with it a power so indisputable, that his testimony cannot be gainsaid.
HOPE & PRAY YOU WERE BLESSED *

God Is With Me !

God Is With Me! Let me tell you something of my friend, And as I do, perhaps all of you will recognize The value of my prize. For all my worldly wealth, My physical and mental health, In storm or weather fair Depends upon His care. I've learned each day, to choose the way, To loose my fears, And though troubles press, With sore distress upon my soul, I know somehow that He is with me now And will be through the passing years. Yes - He is with me Even though in thought I've often caught myself So far away from Him- And even though I sometimes join the race- Away from his Amazing Grace, I always turn around to find He's there, Behind my fleeing foot, To put His hand upon my heart To draw me back To live with Him - Apart. He is with me, Especially when my other friends misunderstand The methods that I use, Or when they refuse to see That He and I are friends, Working silently to make 'not' brake the strongholds of the faith.

Honoring God in the home

Evening Devotional Reading May 23, 2016 From That I May Know Him Honoring God in the Home      Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16. {TMK 149.1}      This is what we need in our households. There is in it no fault-finding, no harshness; but peace, and joy, and rest in the Lord. . . . God calls for loving service. He calls upon parents to speak lovingly and tenderly to their children. Let them see that you think they help you. Give them responsibilities to bear, small ones at first, and larger ones as they grow older. Never, never, let them hear you say of them, "They hinder me more than they help me.". . .  {TMK 149.2}      How many there are who forget that the home is a school in which children are trained to work either for Christ or Satan. Fathers and mothers, reme...
