PERSECUTION
- Severe
persecution, even unto death, is predicted fro some of God’s
commandment, [Sabbath] keeping people in the last days. 2Tim.
3:12; Rev. 16:4-6; Rev.
18:24; Rev. 20:4; Mt.
24:9; Rev. 13:15, 17.
- The
accumulated, pent-up hostilities of the ages will be unleashed upon
Sabbath-keepers. There will be a hatred kindled against Sabbath-keepers
which is Satanic. Many Seventh day Adventists will be persecuted to death
before the close of probation. None will die after probation closes. 9T
16; 5T 449-454.
- And
the DEVIL was FURIOUS with the CHURCH, and went to make war with the
REMAINDER of her CHILDREN which keep THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD, and have THE
SPIRIT OF PROPHECY.” Rev.
12:17; 19:10.
- “THE
WHOLE WORLD IS TO BE STIRRED WITH ENMITY AGAINST SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS,
because they will not yield to the papacy, by honoring Sunday, the
institution of this anti-Christian power. IT is the purpose of Satan to
cause them to be BLOTTED FROM THE EARTH, in order that his supremacy of
the world may not be disputed.” TM37.
