WORKING

"When the redeemed stand before God, precious souls will respond to their names who are there because of our faithful, patient and earnest persuasions to flee to the Stronghold (God).

 "Thus, those who in this world have been laborers together with God will receive their reward."

Testimonies to the Church, Volume 8, 196-197, E G White

Daily Instruction

Day by day God instructs His children. By the circumstances of the daily life He is preparing them to act their part upon the wider stage to which His providence has appointed them. It is the issue of the daily test that determines their victory or defeat in life’s great crisis.

The Kingdom

We need to be more diligent in the study of the Scriptures. They must be to us, not a make believe story, but the truth of the living God, the foundation of our faith, the assurance on which we build our hope of eternal life in the kingdom of heaven.

Appeal for Unity, E G White

WORLDLY MATTERS

The minds of many are occupied with the consideration of worldly matters, often to the exclusion of the religion of God’s word.

The thoughts are more often upon the matter of eating and drinking and dressing (clothing/fashion) than upon the great and important duty of serving God with humility and prayer.

...in many families decided changes must be brought about; they need to know what they must do to be saved.

If they will inquire diligently the way of life, God will impart to them an understanding of His word, and teach them to value - at their true worth - the things of eternity. Then the heart will no longer reach out covetously for worldly benefits and the pleasures of this life.
