"To lose sight of this precious truth of justification by faith is to miss the supreme purpose of the gospel, which must prove disastrous to the individual, no matter how well meaning and earnest he may be regarding doctrines, ceremonies, activities, and anything and everything else relating to religion. The warning is clearly given by the servant of the Lord: "Unless divine power is brought into the experience of the people of God, false theories and erroneous ideas will take minds captive, Christ and His righteousness will be dropped out of the experience of many, and their faith will be without power or life. Such will not have a daily living experience of the love of God in the heart; and if they do not zealously repent, they will be among those who are represented by the Laodiceans, who will be spewed out of the mouth of God." – Review and Herald, Sept. 3, 1889.
To a lamentable degree, God's people failed to bring the divine power into their experience, and the result predicted has been seen:
1-False theories and erroneous ideas have taken minds captive.
2- Christ and His righteousness have been dropped out of the experience of many.
3-The faith of many is without power or life.
4-There is not a living daily experience of the love of God in the heart.
Still further, we are told that much has been lost to the cause of God by the failure to gain that living experience of divine power – Righteousness by Faith."
