3
WHAT IS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST?
  • REVELATION 1217
  • And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and
    went to make war with the remnant of her seed,
    which keep the commandments of God, and have the
    testimony of Jesus Christ.
  • REVELATION 1910
  • And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he
    said unto me, See thou do it not I am thy
    fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the
    testimony of Jesus worship God for the
    testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

4
REVELATION 229
  • Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not for I
    am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the
    prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of
    this book worship God.

5
FELLOWSERVANT, BRETHREN, AND PROPHETS, ARE ONE
  • 1 CORINTHIANS 1214, 18
  • For the body is not one member, but many. But now
    hath God set the members every one of them in the
    body, as it hath pleased him.

6
A PROPHET A SEER
  • 1 SAMUEL 99
  • (Beforetime in Israel, when a man went to
    enquire of God, thus spake, Come, and let us go
    to the seer for he that is now called a Prophet
    was beforetime called a Seer.)
  • A SEER HAD/HAS SPIRITUAL EYES
  • PROVERBS 2918
  • Where there is no vision, the people perish but
    he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

7
A PROPHET/SEER COUNTERFEITS
  • REVELATION 318 MESSAGE TO LAODICEA
  • I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the
    fire, hat thou mayest be rich and raiment, that
    thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy
    nakedness do not appear and anoint thine eyes
    with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
  • WHAT QUARREL DOES CHRIST HAVE WITH THE CHURCH OF
    LAODICEA?
  • Righteous and Blessed
  • Poor/miserable/naked/blind
  • Lukewarm

8
LAODECIA LOOSES INTEREST IN HEAVENLY THINGS, BUT
FINDS PLEASURE IN WORLDY THINGS.
  • JOHN 539
  • Search the scriptures for in them ye think that
    ye have eternal life and they are they which
    testify of me.
  • REVELATION 12, 3
  • Who bare record of the word of God, and the
    testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that
    he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that
    hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those
    things which are written therein for the time is
    at hand.

9
PROPHETS BIBLE STUDENTS?
  • 1 PETER 110, 11
  • Of which salvation the prophets have enquired
    and searched diligently, who prophesied of the
    grace that should come unto you Searching what,
    or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which
    was in them did signify, when it testified
    beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the
    glory that should follow.

10
A PROPHET BEARS WITNESS TESTIMONY
  • JOHN 16-8
  • There was a man sent from God, whose name was
    John. The same came for a witness, to bear
    witness of the Light, that all men through him
    might believe. He was not that Light, but was
    sent to bear witness of that Light.
  • 2 PETER 120, 21
  • Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the
    scripture is of any private interpretation. For
    the prophecy came not in old time by the will of
    man but holy men of God spake as they were moved
    by the Holy Ghost.

11
PROPHET(S) PRIESTS AND PEOPLE REJECTED HIS WORDS
  • ZECHARIAH 711, 12
  • But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the
    shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they
    should not hear. Yea, they made their hearts as
    an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law,
    and the words which the Lord of hosts.
  • REVELATION 2216
  • I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you
    these things in the churches. I am the root and
    the offspring of David, and the bright and
    morning star.

12
REMNANT CHURCH OF REVELATION 1217 TESTIMONY OF
JESUS CHRIST?
  • 1 CORINTHIANS 1422
  • Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them
    that believe, but to them that that believe not
    but prophesying serveth not for them that believe
    not, but for them which believe.
  • 2 CHRONICLES 3615, 16 JERUSALEMS FALL
  • And the LORD God of their fathers sent them by
    his messengers, rising up betimes, and sending
    because he had compassion on his people, and on
    his dwelling place But they mocked the
    messengers of God, and despised his words, and
    misused his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord
    arose against his people, till there was no
    remedy.

13
PHARISEE OXYMORON
  • OXFORD DICTIONARY
  • A figure of speech in which apparently
    contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
  • Oxford example (Faith unfaithful kept him
    falsely true).
  • MATTHEW 2329, 30
  • Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
    Because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and
    garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, And say,
    If we would have been in the days of our fathers,
    we would not have partakers with them in the
    blood of the prophets.

14
GODS PROFESSED PEOPLE REJECTS THE PROPHETS
TESTIMONY
  • ISAIAH 308-11
  • Now go, write it before them in a table, and
    note it in a book, that it may be for the time to
    come for ever and ever That this s a rebellious
    people, lying children, children that will not
    hear the law of the LORD Which say to the seers,
    See not and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto
    us right things, speak unto us smooth things,
    prophesy deceits
  • LUKE 626
  • Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of
    you! For so did their fathers to the false
    prophets.

ELLEN G. WHITE, SELECTED MESSAGES, VOL. 1,
pp.40, 48
  • Chapter 3 - Attitudes Toward the Testimonies
  • I saw the state of some who stood on present
    truth, but disregarded the visions--the way God
    had chosen to teach in some cases, those who
    erred from Bible truth. I saw that in striking
    against the visions they did not strike against
    the worm--the feeble instrument that God spake
    through--but against the Holy Ghost. I saw it was
    a small thing to speak against the instrument,
    but it was dangerous to slight the words of God.

18
  • .I saw if they were in error and God chose to
    show them their errors through visions, and they
    disregarded the teachings of God through visions,
    they would be left to take their own way, and run
    in the way of error, and think they were right,
    until they would find it out too late. Then in
    the time of trouble I heard them cry to God in
    agony, "Why didst Thou not show us our wrong,
    that we might have got right and been ready for
    this time?" Then an angel pointed to them and
    said, "My Father taught, but you would not be
    taught. He spoke through visions, but you
    disregarded His voice, and He gave you up to your
    own ways, to be filled with your own doings.

19
SEARCHING THE TESTIMONIES FOR AN EXCUSE
  • Some who are not willing to receive the light,
    but who prefer to walk in ways of their own
    choosing, will search the testimonies to find
    something in them to encourage the spirit of
    unbelief and disobedience. Thus a spirit of
    disunion will be brought in for the spirit which
    leads them to criticize the testimonies will also
    lead them to watch their brethren to find in them
    something to condemn.

20
THE LAST DECEPTION OF SATAN
  • Satan is . . . constantly pressing in the
    spurious--to lead away from the truth. The very
    last deception of Satan will be to make of none
    effect the testimony of the Spirit of God. "Where
    there is no vision, the people perish" (Proverbs
    2918). Satan will work ingeniously, in different
    ways and through different agencies, to unsettle
    the confidence of God's remnant people in the
    true testimony.-- Letter 12, 1890.
  • There will be a hatred kindled against the
    testimonies which is satanic. The workings of
    Satan will be to unsettle the faith of the
    churches in them, for this reason Satan cannot
    have so clear a track to bring in his deceptions
    and bind up souls in his delusions if the
    warnings and reproofs and counsels of the Spirit
    of God are heeded.
