Under the Blazing Light of Truth

"Many who have lived under the blazing light of truth act as if they had nothing to do.
 
God calls upon every one of you to take up life's burdens,
to engage in the warfare as you have never done before.
You who love to speak of the faults of others,
arouse,
and look into your own hearts.

Take your Bibles,
and go to God in earnest prayer.
Ask him to teach you to know yourself,
to understand your weakness,
your sins and follies, in the light of eternity.
Ask him to show you yourself as you stand in the sight of heaven. This is an individual work." Review & Herald 1900 E.G.W.

And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance...
Hosea 12:8
Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;
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.
Revelation 3:17,18
