3 Angels' Messages SIMPLIFIED Series:
Message 1
"Revelation 14:6, 7:
“Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having 
the
everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth—to every
nation, tribe, tongue, and people—saying with a loud voice,
‘Fear God
and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and
worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.’”
The Everlasting Gospel
--God’s people do not proclaim a new gospel to the world—they
share the gospel message of salvation which has never changed.
That is
why it is called “the everlasting gospel.”
--It is
the same message of salvation that people in Old Testament 
times
accepted by faith (Hebrews 3:16-19; 4:2; 11:1-40);
--the same teaching
that Jesus Himself proclaimed;
--the same gospel the disciples preached to
conquer the world for Christ;
--the same gospel that has thundered down
through the centuries of the Christian era.
--And God’s people preach it
around the world today.
The first angel proclaims this same simple, saving gospel message but puts it in a new setting—a worldwide one—focused on people who are living in the last days just before Jesus returns. This last-day message calls on people to “fear [reverence] God and give glory to Him [reflect His character].”
When will these messages be proclaimed?
Q: When were these Three Angels’ Messages to be proclaimed 
throughout
the world?
A: When the hour of God’s “judgment has come.” Jesus began the
work of His pre-Advent judgment in 1844, the year when Jesus inspired
people all over the world to begin preaching the messages of Revelation
14.
A call to worship
This message calls for us to “worship Him who made heaven and
earth”
(Revelation 14:7). God asks us to “remember the Sabbath day, to keep it
holy” because “in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth”
(Exodus 20:8, 11).
--In 1844, when Darwin was propounding the theory of
evolution, God was calling people back to worship Him as the Creator.
At
the very time evolution tried to threaten the authority of the Bible,
God’s people discovered the seventh-day Sabbath of God’s Word and began
to keep it in honor of the Creator of heaven and earth. The seventh-day Sabbath is an integral part of the First Angel’s Message." BibleInfo
