The Testimony of Jesus

94/100

Believe the Lord and His Prophets

One who has had a living experience in connection with the work of the Spirit of prophecy in this church, finds no occasion to doubt its divine origin. The history of this movement reveals many instances where the Lord has used this gift for the preservation of His work. Many times in great crises God has sent through His servant a message which saved this church from grave errors and even from disruption. TOJ 147.2

We cannot see how anyone can prayerfully read the messages which have come through the years, and doubt their genuineness. They speak to one’s heart. They carry with them the proof of their own inspiration. TOJ 147.3

Mrs. White’s published writings are read today more faithfully and by a larger circle than during her lifetime. These writings, as we have said, do not exalt the author, but point to the Lord Jesus Christ as the Saviour from sin, to the Word of God as the infallible rule of faith and conduct, and to the Holy Spirit as the interpreter of that Word. TOJ 147.4

May we faithfully follow in the path which she so clearly pointed out, the path that leads to Him who said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” TOJ 148.1
