He wants to come and dwell in us enabling us to live quiet lives of continued obedience, so that we might have life, joy and peace in the midst of the storm. Preparation for His soon return Adventists were raised up by God to proclaim the soon return of our Saviour, friend and Lord. It is in the crucible of knowing the bridegroom is coming. Time is short. We forget the gentle balance of scripture, resort to methods of preaching, correcting, warning and living that God is not glorified and the world is confirmed in their disinterest in knowing God.
Parents are justifiably worried about their sons and daughters.
Eternity only happens once, if you reject Jesus now, the pain of loss can not be described. Yet it is the very message of the gospel and the accurate picture of how God continually has worked behind the scenes to provide a way of escape that provides hope and must bring balance to how we preach in these last days. The Three Angels of Rev 14 carry a message filled with hope, warning and emergency. They call us to a higher level of confidence and relationship with Jesus. In the midst of the final events we are privileged to reflect the same quiet confidence Jesus had as he slept in the boat in the midst of the storm.
