Chap. 37 - The Scriptures a Safeguard of "The Great Controversy"
"To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word,
it is because there is no light in them." Isaiah 8:20. The people of God are
directed to the Scriptures as their safeguard against the influence of false
teachers and the delusive power of spirits of darkness. Satan employs every
possible device to prevent men from obtaining a knowledge of the Bible;
for its plain utterances reveal his deceptions. At every revival of God's work
the prince of evil is aroused to more intense activity; he is now putting forth
his utmost efforts for a final struggle against Christ and His followers.
The last great delusion is soon to open before us.
Antichrist is to perform his marvelous works in our sight.
So closely will the counterfeit resemble the true that it will be
impossible to distinguish between them except by the
Holy Scriptures. By their testimony every statement and every miracle must be tested.
Those who endeavor to obey all the commandments of God will be opposed and derided.
They can stand only in God. In order to endure the trial before them,
they must understand the will of God as revealed in His word; they can honor
Him only as they have a right conception of His character, government, and purposes,
and act in accordance with them. None but those who have fortified the mind with the truths of the Bible will stand through the last great
594
conflict. To every soul will come the searching test: Shall I obey God rather than men?
The decisive hour is even now at hand. Are our feet planted on the rock of God's immutable word? Are we prepared to stand firm in defense of the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus?
Before His crucifixion the Saviour explained to His disciples that He
was to be put to death and to rise again from the tomb,
and angels were present to impress His words on minds and hearts.
But the disciples were looking for temporal deliverance from the Roman yoke,
and they could not tolerate the thought that He in whom all their hopes
centered should suffer an ignominious death. The words which
they needed to remember were banished from their minds;
and when the time of trial came, it found them unprepared.
The death of Jesus as fully destroyed their hopes as if
He had not forewarned them. So in the prophecies the future is opened before
us as plainly as it was opened to the disciples by the words of Christ.
The events connected with the close of probation and the work of preparation
for the time of trouble, are clearly presented. But multitudes have no more
understanding of these important truths than if they had never been revealed.
Satan watches to catch away every impression that
would make them wise unto salvation, and the time of trouble will find them unready.
Many wonder today why the Republican party does nothing to defeat the treasonous
schemes of the Democrats. It is because the pope’s Jesuits have thoroughly
infiltrated the Republican party as well as the Democratic party. Many wonder why
the news media lie so much to support and protect the Democrats. It is because the
pope’s Jesuits have thoroughly infiltrated the news media. The news media and
schools and colleges, with their lies and propaganda, have so conditioned the
people of the country that they are unable to recognize what has been done to them.
Victory for the Jesuits seems very near. The Jesuits are like a cancer that has
pervaded nearly every fiber of the society of the United States. We are being
defeated by the enemy within.
For many years the Jesuits have prevented the United States from developing
additional sources of energy within its own territory. Exploiting the vast oilfields on
the Alaskan north slope, that probably contain more oil than the entire middle east,
is forbidden. New nuclear power plants, the safest source of electric energy ever
discovered, are not permitted. There is no end to the lies people have been made to
believe about Nuclear energy. The environment is used as the club to subdue the
people of the country into going along with this idiocy. Modern technology is able to
develop these sources of power without any damage to the environment. France
gets 80% of its power from nuclear power plants without any problems. Needless to
say, without sufficient energy, the United States will not be able to defend itself. All
the papacy has to do is cut off the oil supply from the middle east.
The United States is now starting to feel the pinch of the energy shortage the Jesuits
have created. People have experienced blackouts over large areas as power is shut
off to stay within the limits of generating capacity. Today, instead of constructing
additional nuclear power plants, some of these plants are being dismantled! Will the
people of the United States be able to wake up in time to prevent the coming
national tragedy?
Not only in the United States is this treachery being perpetrated by the papacy, but
they are secretly at work all over the world to subvert all the nations of the world.
