Globalized Banking Crisis, An Out of the City's Call

BE AWARE, AS SHEPHERD'S ROD DOCTRINES ARE DECEPTIVE and FALSE!


Writer's Corner

THE KEEPERS OF THE FLAME - AN 8 PART SERIES (FREE)







Please watch video posted below, then proceed to read the full document. This is very important for Seventh-day Adventists in these End Times, warranting that God's people prayfully move out of the cities. "As the siege of Jerusalem by the Roman armies was the signal for flight to the Judean Christians, so the assumption of power on the part of our nation [the United States] in the decree enforcing the papal sabbath will be a warning to us. It will then be time to leave the large cities, preparatory to leaving the smaller ones for retired homes in secluded places among the mountains" (Maranatha page 180 paragraph 1).




The SDA Churches' sleepiness and lack of edification will not be excused by God, as since 1844 we have possessed all the materials, permitting us to move forward with the Everlasting Gospel manifesting and teaching the Righteousness of the Messiah, unto Sealing and Empowerment, solidifying our Absolute and Unchanging Victory over sin.





This system is fragile I agree; placing centralized power in an EARTHLY, BANKING INSTITUTION will be disastrous.




One mistake made by the Vatican's Papal Powers-that-be will create major problems for the populace.


Additionally, during the year of 1987, Reagan was meeting regularly with Pope John Paul II, suspectedly formalizing a Global Banking System. In 1999, at an Interfaith meeting, Pope John Paul II was elected the universal spokesperson, chief Spiritual Guide, and Overseer for the World. George W. Bush also stated that the best way to honor Pope John Paul II is to honor his word containing the Sanctity of pagan Sunday, thus suppressing the Sanctified Sabbath (Exodus 20:8).




As Seventh-day Adventists, we understand that Electronic Banking has serious implications for our Purchasing Power, thus we must prepare for this by learning how to grow our own providence, out of the cities.  A Pseudo-Protestant, Billy Graham, an awardee of the Templeton prize has been noted for his alignment with Papal Powers. Such an alignment by the Image of the Beast, Pseudo-Protestant Entities, will endorse the Forthcoming Mark of the Beast, Enforced Pagan Sunday Law and its PERSECUTION of 7th-day Sabbath keepers (Revelation 13:15):




God calls his people out of ruins, let's revisit the example of Lot, instructing his family to LEAVE Sodom and Gomorrah, fleeing to the mountains, God's warning; avoiding destruction: Genesis 19:17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. We are TRULY in serious times, as was Lot and his family. As illustrated by the level of immorality, existing in our world today. Homosexuals conjoining in marital unions, a salient example. Another obvious example of extreme IMMORALITY is Trans-sexuals procreating; unnatural affection (Romans 1:31, 1Corinthians 6:9, 2Timothy 3:3) combined with God's precious blessing of fruitfulness, multiplication of mankind; created in His own image (Genesis 1:27). Mankind and its iniquities have reached unto heaven, leading into the loud cry of the third angel's message (Revelation 14:9-11); the fourth angel's cry (Revelation 18:4,5).





Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.




There are several other examples in the bible which illustrate an OUT OF THE CITY'S call. God has chosen the Seventh-day Adventist Message, a movement, which has been unique in re-enforcing the keeping of the Ten Commandments, the Decalogue, the Character of God and the Faith of Jesus (Isaiah 8:20, Revelation 12:17, 14:12). God's True SDA remnant will continue with the movement, responding to God's calling, despite imminent Sunday Law Persecution (Revelation 13:11-18). By Scriptural allegorical reference, False Protestantism within America is the "Lamb-Like Beast", emerging as gentle and peaceful, yet speaks as a dragon (Revelation 13:11). Recalling history, Pagan Rome enacted the Sunday law in A.D. 321, later re-enforced by Papal Rome, permitting the death and persecution of Seventh-day Sabbath Believers and Keepers. "In the days of Rome's supremacy there were instruments of torture to compel assent to her doctrines" (Great Controversy page 569) [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 91].




We must abhor the Beast, The Romish Church's Papacy, and its Image, Corporate and Elitist False "Protestant" Entities within America, teaching others likewise, as harmony with the these Babylonian Powers is disharmony and disloyalty to God (Great Controversy page 563). Martin Luther, a spiritually-driven reformer for Christ, was clear about his stance for absolute Truth in the scriptures. Sadly, False so-called "Protestantism" has majorly aligned with a need for a ONE WORLD CHURCH, and Ecumenical deceptive teachings, falling into apostasy. Thus, the Roman Catholic church, Mother Harlot, and the "Protestant" Churches, its daughters (Revelation 17:4,5) have become instruments of Satan, determined to prevent the completion of God's work. The Roman Church takes pride in the Laodicean condition of the SDA Movement (Revelation 3:14,15). However, to God be the Glory, as "The reformation did not, as many suppose, end with Luther. It is to continue to the close of this world's history" (Great Controversy page 148). "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day" Prov. 4:18 [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 14].


Targeted individuals in these PRESENT TIMES may be victims of High Technological Electromagnetic weaponry, disguised killings, manifested as heart attacks, myocardial infarction. Vaccinations also can no longer be trusted as they have evidenced levels of mercury attributed to child emotional problems, such as Autism, a pervasive developmental disorder. Defraud European (by origin) pharmaceutical companies share in this disguised persecution of the populace, as they infiltrate medical organizations, steering physicians away from herbal remedies, encouraging legal drugs for "treatment". Thus brethren, we must diligently heed the calling of the TRUE WITNESS, Christ, remaining obedient and informed; ensuring the sealing power of God Rev. 12:17, Rev. 7:1-4, The Ministry of Healing pages 127-128) [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection].


The teaching that the Seventh-day Adventist movement is Babylon is not of God (2Selected Messages page 63-64), true Adventism is the Church of Philadelphia, uniquely obedient to God's ten commandments, loving and brotherly in character Rev. 3:7-8. As we understand that history will repeat itself, as the SDA church was given the most precious message of righteousness by Faith (at the Minneapolis Conference by Elders Waggoner and Jones, Testimonies to Ministers page 91-92 ): for over 100 years, most rejected this most precious truth, remaining lethargic and spiritually asleep Rev. 3:14-15. God will move his message forward, with His True SDA remnant.  Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. Overcomers in these end times will be fueled by the Holy Spirit's Early and Latter rain Jer. 5:24, Zech. 10:1, James 5:7, bringing God's Harvest to the "Measure of the Stature of the fulness of Christ" Eph. 4:13. Our focus, the manifestation of the fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23), as we "take on the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God" Eph. 6:17.


The church of Philadelphia is true Adventism, a spot-free "brotherly and loving" bride Rev. 3:7-13). As we prepare for the Latter Rain Zech. 10:1, James 5:7, embracing the return of Christ, true sincere believers must focus on becoming harvest ripe, perfecting Christian characters. Harvest ripe by biblical definition entails a process of establishing ..."first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear"Mark 4:26-29. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord" Acts 3:19. Once, our characters have become converted and faultless, we have reached the stage of "the ear" , poised for the showers of the Spiritually enriching latter rain Zech. 10:1, James 5:7.  We must focus on strengthening the true church of Christ, those that keep the Ten commandments of God and the faith of Jesus Christ, adhering to the law and the testimony. The focus on the light of Truth, a non-negotiable objective, will be kept solely by true Christians, obedient and faithful; God's peculiar people Isa. 8:20, Titus 2:14, 1Pet. 2:9, Rev. 14:12. An uncompromising, unchangeable, immutable faith in the Messiah, our Redeemer, is thus required. God wants his chosen to daily grow in sanctification, developing in the Character of God Matt. 5:48, 1John 3:9, Christ Object Lessons 330 paragraph 1, Testimonies For The Church Volume 3 Page 43, SDA Bible Commentary Volume 6 Page 1096 paragraph 4 [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 97].


Finding love and reassurance in the Messiah by grace through faith, God's remnant can become firmly rooted in Truth; receptive of the Seal of God John 15:1-7, Eph. 2:8-10, 4:30. With guile-free mouths and blemish-free garments, those chosen, successfully withstanding the trials and tribulations without the aid of an intercessor, will be rewarded as God's precious gems, 144,000 in number Rev. 7:1-4. Most recently, in 2008, Banks inability to lend money is apparent as evidenced by the collapse of Banking systems, causing a tax fund Bail out. Globalization has far greater consequences than we have yet seen, as this 700 billion dollar issue along with hedge funds being forced to liquidate, driving its prices down, will create the most worrisome scenario for all.


Powerful/Elite False Protestant Entities in America will become the image of the Roman Catholic Church's Papacy, reinstating the laws of Sunday law persecution Rev. 13:11-18. The National Sunday Law by definition will begin and apply to the United States of America, later becoming globally standardized, while the world welcomes a cashless system. America, with its tremendous power and influence, as per the scriptures, written by John the Revelator, will allow the Papacy to establish Sunday as a Persecutory law Rev. 13:14-15, the Mark of the Beast Rev. 13:16. Remember, while exiled on the Isle of Patmos, John was given allegorical visions, as the Romans would have murdered him, had they been able to understand his inspired messages. We are truly living in the end times and as the potential 144,000, we will need to be spiritually equip to withstand trials and tribulation without Christ's mediation Dan. 12:1-2; Rev. 6:17, 7:1-4. The Mark of the Beast, enforced Sunday Pagan Worship, having "no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image" [Romanism and False Protestantism] , will cause a loss of purchasing power for God's chosen Rev. 13:11-18, 14:9-11. However, the Creator will provide resources for His own "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; to him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna..." like coriander seed, honey wafers Exo. 16:31, John 6:58, Revelation 2:17). The Ten Commandments, a legal and binding Heavenly governmental ordinance, will be a last day constitutional mandate, maintained by God's chosen Exo. 20, Rev. 14:12. Spiritual Babylonians will be a tool by Satan, persecuting the remnant of Christ's seed Rev. 12:17. Be encouraged, as persecution will purify the faithful body of Christ Zech. 13:9, Mal. 3:1-3, Titus 2:11-15, Rev. 14:1-5, reserving their seat at the throne of God (Revelation 3:21) [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 90].

Babylon is Fallen is Fallen – A Call For a Spiritual Babylonian Evacuation

  Written by Dionne Sabbay Thompson September 9, 2010   


    “The time period of 1260 is mentioned seven times in the bible and seven is the number of completion, emphasizing the completeness of the scriptures in prophecy, highlighting the delay of God’s work and its closure (Daniel 7:25; 12:7; Revelation 11:2,3; 12:6,14; 13:5)” [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 8].

"Only those who are living up to the light they have will receive greater light. Unless we are daily advancing in the exemplification of the active Christian virtues, we shall not recognize the manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the latter rain. It may be falling on hearts all around us, but we shall not discern or receive it".--Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel workers 507 (1897).

     As the battle between good and evil proceeds, God’s righteous remnant, advancing in sanctification, observe the unfolding of history’s final events. “The pope has changed the day of rest from the seventh to the first day”. “He has thought to change the very
commandment that was given to cause man to remember his Creator”. “He has thought to change the greatest commandment in the decalogue and thus make himself equal with God, or even exalt himself above God” (Early Writings page 65).  The sealing Power of God and its infinite perfection secures those honoring the Ten Commandments, while embracing the faith of the Messiah, Jesus Christ (Isaiah 8:20, Revelation 12:17, 14:12, Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers page 445) [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 90].

     God’s remnant must emphasize to both believers and nonbelievers the need to evacuate spiritual Babylon, before the world’s probation closure (Revelation 18:1-5, Revelation 22:11).

     “Enforced Sunday Law, the Mark of the Beast, is imminent (Revelation 13:11-18). All must be serious about their soul salvation, standing for the ministry of Truth. Earthly, Babylonian Kingdoms have fallen, thus sincere believers must evacuate spiritual Babylon, adhering to the loud cry message (Revelation 18:1-4). Principles that are constructed outside of God’s divine plan are spiritually Babylonian. John 18:36 edifies that Christ’s kingdom was not of this earth. The latter rain, outpouring with the message of righteousness by faith, the third angel’s message, is empowered by the Fourth Angel’s amplified message, the loud cry (Zechariah 10:1, James 5:7, Revelation 18:1-5,  Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers pages 91-92). “Several have written to me, inquiring if the message of justification by faith is the third angel’s message, and I have answered, ‘It is the third angel’s message in verity’” (1Selected Messages page 372)” [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 94].

     Teaching the three angels’ messages and loud cry to every nation kindred tongue and people is essential (Revelation 14:6).  Receiving God’s symbolic sealing in the forehead is an ultimate goal for Christ’s faithful believers (Revelation 14:1-5). The seventh-day Sabbath is a visible manifestation of God’s Sealing Truth (Ezekiel 20:12). As God’s righteous loud cry messengers, it is imperative that Overcomers remain faithful while sharing end time Truth across the globe regarding the Godhead and its righteous power, wisdom and love (Deuteronomy 6:4, Proverbs 8:22-36, Matthew 28:18-20, John 1:1-3, 14; Romans 1:20; 5:1-5; 1Corinthians 1:30, 8:6).

    “ ‘Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the Commandments of God and the faith of Jesus’ (Revelation 14:12). The people of God must understand the seriousness of the times, paralleling the experience prior to Noah’s flood (Matthew 24:37). Sincere believers must evacuate spiritually from Babylon, following God without compromise. Christians must reform their ways, teaching the world about the need to abstain from worldly, earthly appetites and lusts: unhealthful diets, smoking, alcohol consumption, dangerous meat eating, caffeine consumption, pornography, television addiction, diabolical video games, cursing, worldly adornment, attending bars and worldly concerts, just to mention a few (1Corinthians 6:19, 10:31, Manuscript Releases Volume 18 page 353, The Ministry of Healing page 332)” [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 80].

     “Spiritual Babylonians will be a tool used by Satan, persecuting the remnant of Christ’s seed (Revelation 12:17). Be encouraged, as persecution will purify the faithful body of Christ, reserving their seat at the throne of God (Zechariah 13:9, Malachi 3:1-3, Titus 2:11-15, Revelation 3:21)”  [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection page 85].

     “Once Enforced Sunday law, the Mark of the Beast, takes its position, worldly,  Babylonian, Principalities will prevent God’s remnant from buying or selling: but God promises livelihood resources (Revelation 13:11-18). The Creator will provide resources for His own “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna…” like coriander seed, honey
wafers (Exodus 16:31, John 6:58, Revelation 2:17). “Those who would not receive the mark of the beast and his image when the decree goes forth, must have decision now to say, Nay, we will not regard the institution of the beast” (Early Writings page 67)” [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection pages 92-93].    

     “Ezekiel 20:12 edifies that only Christ [Yeshua] can sanctify His people, and He gave them His Sabbaths; a visible manifestation of living sealing proof. Proverbs 4:18 reminds us that God requires us to increase in knowledge daily, learning and advancing in holiness and wisdom (Romans 8:30, 2Peter 3:18). Sincere believers must study and apply Truth to their character experience, believing in Christ, while obediently adhering to the Decalogue (Exodus 20, Romans 1:16-17, 2Timothy 2:15). The path of the righteous
remnant, being justified by Christ, is like a shining light, growing brighter daily (Proverbs 4:18). God’s remnant must apply biblical Truth to their character experience, as without it, their pathway of truth becomes dimmer and dimmer, distancing them from the Creator: and Christ is the way, truth and life (Hosea 4:6, John 14:6, 2Timothy 3:16)” [A Soul Sealed at Character Perfection pages 93-94].

God's Remnant Advance, Sanctified by Faith

By Dionne Sabbay Thompson November 7th 2008








As the battle between good and evil proceeds, God’s people advancing in Sanctification, observe the unfolding of History’s final events. The Sealing Power of God and its infinite, perfection secures those honoring the Ten Commandments, embracing the faith of the Messiah, Jesus Christ (Isaiah 8:20, Revelation 14:12). "The Lord has a great work to be done, and He will bequeath the most in the future life to those who do the most faithful, willing service in the present life. The Lord chooses His own agents, and each day under different circumstances He gives them a trial in His plan of operation. In each true-hearted endeavor to work out His plan, He chooses His agents not because they are perfect but because, through a connection with Him, they may gain perfection" (Christ Object Lessons 330 paragraph 1). "The glory of Christ is revealed in the law, which is a transcript of His character, and His transforming efficacy is felt upon the soul until men become changed to His likeness. They are made partakers of the divine nature, and grow more and more like their Saviour, advancing step by step in conformity to the will of God, till they reach perfection" (SDA Bible Commentary Volume 6 page 1096 paragraph 4).


The most salient part of this moment in time, relates to the forthcoming Mark of the Beast, Enforced National Sunday Law, a tool which will be activated by the adversary Satan once, God’s people are securely sealed. At that point, Satan will have no other recourse but, to move forward, changing times and laws, enforcing the now dormant American Sunday law (Daniel 7:25, Revelation 12:17, Revelation 13:11-18). The Sealing mark by the Living God, requires that saints establish and maintain a obedient, fixed, unchanging, absolute sin-free and completely surrendered life, through the gift of the Messiah's righteousness (Deuteronomy 6:1-8, Revelation 7:1-4). Enoch, living within a sin infested society similar to ours during his times, was able to accomplish Victory over sin, and he was later redeemed from the earth (Genesis 5:24, 6:5). Be encouraged, as persecution will purify God’s remnant (Zechariah 13:9, Malachi 3:1-3, Titus 2:14).




The harvest must be ripe in order for the Reaper and His administration to return (Revelation 14:14-6). As we are in a new cycle of God’s work, remembering that our Creator will not be mocked and His Word will not return to Him void (Isaiah 55:11, Galatians 6:7). Our Maker will not accept or receive any soul that is not perfect in character, as gold tried in the fire (Zechariah 13:9, Malachi 3:1-3, Matthew 5:48, 1John 3:9, 1-8Peter 1:7). God detests lukewarmness and thus, He will find messengers who are righteous and worthy to deliver the TRUTH (Revelation 3:7.8, 14, 15). The Apostle Paul, an inspired writer and Prophet, wrote about the consequences resulting from the rejection of the Everlasting Gospel, as without it, we will not be able to overcome sin, resulting in bondage (Romans 1:18-32). There is only one Everlasting Gospel (Romans 1).


There are four watches in one generation. As a generation is 40 years, a watch is 10 years (Luke 12:35-38, Hebrews 3:7-11). The first and second watch are the most favorable as that is when zealous, accelerated works are the most apparent within the harvest. Every generation contains 4 watches and there is danger foreseen that results in missing the first or second watch, as what ye sow, that ye shall also reap (Exodus 20:5, Ecclesiastes 8:5-6; Matthew 13:37-39; Luke 12:35,38; Galatians 6:7-9). As the shaking process proceeds in the church, it causes an opportune time for spiritual advancement, as the calling is fresh, conducive for harvest ripeness “the ear”, later to be fully nourished by the latter rain, forming the “full corn in the ear” (Zechariah 10:1, Mark 4:26-29, James 5:7).


The Mark of the Beast, Enforced Sunday Law, was foreseen by the Prophet EGW, who was given light in the 1800’s regarding this serious matter (Great Controversy chapter 35). Satan has been on this earth like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour (1Peter 5:8). Where God is not in control, Satan ensares souls who have lost their connection with the Creator (Great Controversy Chapter 32). As the Messiah remains in the most Holy place, interceding and mediating on behalf of those who call on His name for the remission of sins, Satan seeks to utilize measures of temptation and persecution, to diminish their faith (Matthew 26:28, 1Timothy 2:5) . God’s people remaining faithful, seek only the reassurance of the Most High, as they live daily without fear or panic, regarding the forthcoming trials and tribulation, as God does not cause a spirit of fear (2Timothy 1:7, Revelation 16). God has promised His people that their HIDDEN MANNA, food and water shall be sure, as the righteous will never be forsaken or their seed begging bread (Exodus 16:31, Numbers 11:7, Psalms 37:25, Revelation 2:17). Once, Enforced Sunday law, the Mark of the Beast, takes its position and protocol, worldly, Babylonian, Principalities will prevent the remnant’s ability to buy or sell, but God promises livelihood resources (Revelation 13:11-18).


The Administration of God has all power, thus the Heavenly angel’s of the Lord have been watching, awaiting the advancement of time, hastening the return of the Messiah, Christ Jesus. Holy angels are anxious to see the vindication of the Savior who defeated Satan, a liar and murderer, at the cross where it was “FINISHED” (John 19:30). Heavenly angel’s flying in the midst of heaven, bellowing the Three Angel’s messages, have long awaited the moment in time when sin can be completely eradicated from the face of this earth (Revelation 14:6-12, Revelation 18:1-4). Following the Millennium, God’s people will return to the earth, where they will spend eternity (Revelation 20:4-15). The heavenly administration recalls those martyred for the Word, Christ Jesus: and their reward is sure (Acts 22:20, Revelation 2:13, Revelation 20:4, Revelation 6:9-11).




The 144,000, God’s remnant and harvest, are now preparing their temples, as they watch their diets, abstaining from those unhealthful behaviors that will ultimately prevent them from withstanding trials and tribulation, without Christ, the Intercessor (Daniel 12:1,2; 1Corinthians 6:19; Revelation 6:17, 7:1-4). Those who watch and wait, identifying the signs of the times; indicators pointing to the Final Crisis on the Earth, are humble, meek and lowly, cognizant of the Word and its Power (Matthew 5:5, 11:29, Romans 1:20). Most have labeled the Seventh-day Adventist message as cult-like or Babylonian, misunderstanding the true meaning of “Seventh-day Adventist”. By definition, Protestants are those who protest the ways of the Papacy beginning in the Dark ages, which manifested false doctrines that went against Scripture, thus the principle of Protestantism is “Sola Scriptura”. Definitively, the Seventh-day relates to the day of rest, sanctified and hallowed by God in Heaven (Genesis 2:3, Exodus 20:8), and the word “Adventist” relates to the second Advent, Christ’s imminent return (1Thessalonians 4:16-17). Those who seek to change their names, assuming that Seventh-day Adventism is simply a man-made earthly denomination have fully misunderstood the identity of the Seventh-day Adventist movement and people, the True remnant (Revelation 14:12). Christ for all intents and purposes is Seventh-day Adventist (Medical Ministry page 49).


As time advances and God’s people seek to edify the populace about the New Covenant Experience and the True Witness, Christ Jesus the Elijah Message becomes such an important focus (Malachi 4:5,6). The remnant, people of God, are given a reformatory message similar to Elijah, who preached to Ahab and Jezebel. Elijah’s message is related to our End Time messages of revival and reformation, calling the people of God back to the Divinity of God, repentant in nature. John the Baptist, a righteous martyr, preached the Elijah Message, as the people of God need to preach this same message (Matthew 3:2,3; Matthew 11:9-15). As prophesied, the three unclean spirits as frogs, the Dragon (Satan), the Beast, the Papacy (Vatican, church and state) and the False Prophet, historic and present Spiritualism, Ecumenism, Pantheism (multi-faceted Apostate or False Protestantism), sweep the earth as Satan deceives many (Revelation 16:13). The teachings of satanic sun worship, a deceptive practice, upheld by many Protestants, unknowingly, as they seek to find ways to erase, the Ten commandments, has been displeasing to the Creator (Daniel 7:25). God’s heavenly constitution, the Ten Commandments are legal and binding, having authority far greater than earthly beings can imagine, as God’s angels keep the Ten Commandments in heaven. Lucifer was cast out of heaven because of his breech of such a Heavenly ordinance (Ezekiel 28:15, Revelation 12:1-4). Thus we must understand the power that the Ten Commandments truly have over all, even those that are not physical descendants of Abraham’s bloodline. The highest calling requires that all take heed of the law and testimony of Christ Jesus (Isaiah 8:20, Revelation 12:17).


The entire world will be taught about the precious message of Righteousness by faith: every nation, kindred, tongue and people will know of the eternal power of the Everlasting Gospel (Romans 1:16,17; Ephesians 2:8-10, Philippians 3:9-11; Revelation 14:6-7). God, in all fairness, will allow this precious message to reach all, even those who are in distant societies, not well known to mankind (Isaiah 45:21). The continents of: Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Australia and Antarctica will be exposed to this precious light, as the Messiah wishes that none were lost (John 3:16,17). God’s work will not return to Him void, as He promises that there will be a remnant, manifesting His character and fruits (Exodus 20, Isaiah 55:11; Matthew 5:48. Galatians 5:22-23; Revelation 14:1-5). Let us be found blameless and faultless, guile-free, manifesting unstained, mark-free garments for our Savior who overcame the world for all mankind (John 16:33, 1Thessalonians 5:23, Jude 1:24-25; Revelation 14:1-5). Be encouraged saints, as we advance in Sanctification, looking unto Glorification, when our Savior shall return, crowned King of Kings and Lord of Lords, promising overcomers a seat at His throne (2Peter 3:18, Revelation 3:21, 19:11).

A Sabbath Seal of Truth - Sanctified by Faith

by Dionne Sabbay Thompson October 8th, 2008





"It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed" (Exodus 31:17). “For He spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works” (Hebrews 4:4). The Sabbath must be identified as a memorial, spent with our Eternal and Infinitely loving Creator (1John 4:8,16,19). Part of our preparation for the Sabbath requires God's remnant to grow in sanctification, laying down the burden of sin (1Thessalonians 5:23, 2Peter 3:18). As the close of the house of God's probation approaches (1Peter 4:17), heirs remain faithful and alert, reassuring their seat at the throne of God (Revelation 3:21). Today's sealing message manifests God's Divine, Infinite and Perfect Power (Romans 1:20) Eternally filled with good news, God's sealing message warrants that all chosen (Jews and Gentiles) manifest the Character of Christ, overcoming the propensity of sin (Matthew 5:48, Acts 3:19, 1 John 3:9, Testimonies for the Church Volume 1 page 43). Sin is non-compliance to the Ten Commandments, the Decalogue, containing God's sanctified SABBATH governing HEAVEN and EARTH (Exodus 20, 1John 3:4). Such an allegiance to Divine truth, will be the focus for those who dare to be like the Prophet Daniel and the Three Hebrews, standing for Christ, our Faithful True Witness.




The ongoing work towards Sealing requires fixed, unchangeable, absolute sanctification, which comes from Christ alone. Being justified by faith, we must continue in obedience, building the Character of God (Exodus 20, Romans 5:1-5). Mirroring the image of the Messiah, we must have Him formed fully in us, being found blameless and faultless (Galatians 4:19, Colossians 1:27, 1Thessalonians 5:23, Jude 1:24-25). We must emphasize to both believers and non-believers the need to evacuate Babylon, before the world's probation closure (Revelation 18:1-4, Revelation 22:11). Teaching the three angel's messages to ..."every nation kindred tongue and people" is essential (Revelation 14:6-12). Receiving God's symbolic sealing in our foreheads is our ultimate goal, as the 144,000 (Revelation 14:1). The 7th-day Sabbath is a visible manifestation of God's Sealing Truth (Ezekiel 20:12). As God's righteous Loud Cry messengers, it is imperative that we keep the faith while sharing End Time Truth to all regarding the Godhead and its Power, Wisdom and Love (Deuteronomy 6:4; Proverbs 8:22-36; John 1:1-3,14; Romans 1:16,17,20; 5:1-5).


"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus" (Revelation 14:12). The people of God must understand the seriousness of the times. We must evacuate spiritually from Babylon, following God with no compromise. Seventh-day Adventists must reform their ways, teaching the world about the need to abstain from worldly, earthly appetites and lusts: unhealthful diets, smoking, drinking alcohol, dangerous meat eating, caffeine consumption, pornography, television addiction, diabolical video games, cursing, worldly adornment, attending bars and worldly concerts, just to mention a few.


The purpose of purging is to bring forth more fruit. As Christians, anything preventing the reproduction of the fruit of the Spirit will be purged by the Husbandman, God the Father (John 15:1). Galatians 5:16-26 edifies that if we are walking in the flesh than the Spirit will not be reproduced. If we are walking in the flesh then a Spiritual walk is denied access and fulfillment. An unconverted person will manifest the works of the flesh. The purging process is to remove the unChrist-like characteristics (Galatians 5:16-21). Anything that is not within the fruits of the Spirit is within the works of the flesh. All fleshly traits even that which is hidden from our view must be given up, purged, crucified (Galatians 2:20). Purging is a cleansing process only active within an abiding relationship with Christ.


Once we are abiding in Christ, purging will remove branches not bearing fruits. Any branch that beareth not fruits, hinders perfection of character (Matthew 5:48, Acts 3:19, 1John 3:9, Testimonies for the Church Volume 3 page 43). Trials and problems are used to purge us in our Christian walk. By focusing on Christ, the defects that hinder our character perfection will be removed by the Pruner, God the Father, the Husbandman. Whom the Lord loveth, he chasteneth (Hebrews 12:6). The works of the flesh must be purged out, so that the fruits of Spirit can be manifested. "My Father is the husbandman", thus it is God the Father that does the purging (John 15:1). Skillfully, God removes the sin from our lives, by grace through faith, as we faithfully trust in Him (Ephesians 2:8-10). God will remove all that He needs to remove. We need not fight against the providence of the Lord. Trials, a providence, enables the purifying process (Zechariah 13:9, Malachi 3:1-3, Titus 2:14). Thus, by grace through faith and sanctification we must thank God for trials and tribulation. We must first be born again through the promises of God. Sufficient grace is given to a child born of God, overcoming sin (Matthew 5:48, Acts 3:19, 1John 3:9, Testimonies for the Church Volume 3 page 43). Righteousness, virtue and knowledge are taught in 2Peter 3-18, illustrating a process of sanctified advancement.


Job, a man perfect and upright, endured trials, losing all his earthly wealth, yet through his hardship, he was purified, as gold tried in the fire (Job 1:1, Malachi 3:1-3). The 144,000 must fully rest in the Lord, as their hardships will increase, engaging them in serious tests without an Intercessor. As Christians, our characters must be tested and tried. Hebrews 5 edifies that Christ is the Son of God, who was made in the flesh, yet suffered hardship, standing true with obedience to the Word. We will not be expected to go through trials that Christ Himself did not endure. How do Christians become perfect, you ask? It is through trials. Perfection of character is formed through suffering and hardship; a testing process that Abraham and Christ endured (Genesis 22, Matthew 36).


Christ was perfect, remaining obedient through hardship and suffering. God the Father is the Husbandman and as per 1Corinthians 10:13, He is faithful, providing the assurance that we will not be tempted beyond our tolerance. God the Father has promised us grace, allowing us to deal with such trials with a Christ-like Heavenly Spirit (Hebrews 4:16). Grace is sufficient and more than enough for us, delivering us from trials. Deliverance can also be in the form of tolerance and resilience. There is no development of character without hardship. Every martyr was chosen by God for a Divine purpose, empowered by the Holy Spirit (Romans 1:20). Christ in the garden of Gethsemane, sweat drops of blood, pleading for the Father "O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt" (Matthew 26:39). Our Savior endured pain for all of us, even those that pierced Him. Be encouraged, advance in sanctification; life challenges may be difficult, but keep the faith, for great is our reward in Heaven (Matthew 5:11,12).


The church of Philadelphia is true Adventism, God's spotless bride, preparing to meet Christ, the Bridegroom (Ephesians 5:21-31, Revelation 3:7-13). As we prepare for the Latter Rain (Joel 2:23, Zechariah 10:1, James 5:7), embracing the return of Christ, true sincere believers must focus on becoming harvest ripe, perfecting Christ-like characters. Harvest ripe by biblical definition entails a process of establishing ..."first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear"(Mark 4:26-29). "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord" (Acts 3:19). Once, our characters have become converted and faultless, we have reached the stage of "the ear", poised for the showers of the Spiritually enriching latter rain (Zechariah 10:1, Matthew 5:48, Acts 3:19, James 5:7, 1John 3:9, Testimonies for the Church Volume 3 page 43).

We must focus on strengthening the true church of Christ, those that keep the Ten commandments of God and the faith of Jesus Christ, adhering to the law and the testimony. The focus on the light of Truth, a non-negotiable objective, will be kept solely by true Christians, obedient and faithful; God's peculiar people (Isaiah 8:20, Titus 2:14, 1Peter 2:9, Revelation 14:12). An uncompromising, unchangeable, immutable faith in the Messiah, our Redeemer, is thus required. God wants his chosen to daily grow in sanctification, developing in the Character of God. Finding love and reassurance in the Messiah by grace through faith, God's remnant can become firmly rooted in Truth; receptive of the Seal of God (John 15:1-7, Ephesians 2:8-10, Ephesians 4:30, 2Peter 3:18). With guile-free mouths and blemish-free garments, those chosen, successfully withstanding the trials and tribulation without the aid of an Intercessor, will be rewarded as God's precious gems, 144,000 in number (Revelation 7:1-4).
