Books on the Life of CHRIST by E.G.W. |
This is clearly a message for Laodicea. If the last of the 7 churches is the SDA Church for the final home stretch-to hold up the truth to the world in the final showdown of the great controversy between God & Lucifer-then this message is for us.
As for the description of Laodicea:
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;
These things saith the
Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot:
I would thou wert cold or
hot.
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee
out of my mouth.
(We haven't let the Truth change us)
Because thou sayest,
I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of
nothing;
(We have the Truth and think we are therefore good-to-go)
and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and
blind, and naked:
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy
nakedness do not appear;
and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest
see.

"There is a lack of earnestness, of wrestling in prayer. Many give the trumpet no certain sound and, neither sinners nor formal professors are awakened." Special Testimonies E.G.W.
