104the TRUTH, the whole TRUTH, and nothing but the TRUTHand consider more reliable than the Inspired Word. They claim that everythought and feeling is an impression of the Spirit; and when they arereasoned with out of the Scriptures, they declare that they have somethingmore reliable. But while they think that they are led by the Spirit of God,they are in reality following an imagination wrought upon by Satan.Ernie’s dreams do not have some truth; they have all truth. The dreams do notlead away from the original faith but bring us back to it. The dreams do notbelittle the law of God, but emphasize it. The dreams do pay heed to God’s willas revealed in the testimonies of His Spirit, not just in the Bible but also in theSpirit of Prophecy (Ellen White’s writings.) Ernie is not controlled by impulseand impressions. The dreams are not more reliable than what God has alreadyrevealed, but are just as reliable because they are from the same Author.Too quick to trust angels?Wohlberg says: (see Appendix H)“On page 2, the dream begins. At the bottom of page 2, after seeingthree angels, and hearing one of them quote Philippians 2:5-11, Erniewrote:I now know I am safe because of what the angel just quotedand that these are angels of God and not of Satan. These threeangels meet the criteria of testing the spirits. I hold out myright hand and we quickly ascend. We are traveling extremelyfast. Their wings have the appearance of pure light.To me, Ernie is too quick to trust these ‘angels.’ Cannot Satan quoteScripture too? Yes. We know this from Matthew 4:6 where, whiletempting Jesus, Satan also says, ‘It is written’ Thus, when Ernie said, ‘Inow know I am safe because of what the angel just quoted’ he is not onsolid ground. Just because an "angel" quotes Scripture before us, this isnot really proof that he is of God, and that we are ‘safe.’ ”FactSatan’s purpose is to deceive. That is why, in Matthew 4:6, he only uses part ofPsalm 91:11. When the heavenly angels quoted from Philippians 2:5-11, theystated all the verses with nothing omitted or changed.God says:Sermons and Talks, Vol. 2, p. 218The second temptation was on the point of presumption. . . . Satan nowsupposes that he has met Jesus on His own ground. The wily foe himselfpresents words that proceeded from the mouth of God. He makes itevident that he is acquainted with the Scriptures. But when he quoted thepromise “He shall give his angels charge over thee,” he omitted the words“to keep thee in all thy ways,” that is, in all the ways of God’s choosing.Pastor Wohlberg’s statement is a vain attempt to discredit the message, bycomparing a truthful statement by one of God’s angels with a deceptivestatement by the devil. If Satan had told the entire truth then we could comparethem. The whole truth and nothing but the truth is not a means of deception, butevidence as to its divine origin.
