Testimonies for the Church Volume 1 - A New You Ministry

When Jesus leaves the most holy, His restraining Spirit is withdrawn from rulers andpeople. They are left to the control of evil angels. Then such laws will be made by thecounsel and direction of Satan, that unless time should be very short, no flesh could besaved.*****Chap. 38 - Errors in DietDear Brother and Sister A: The Lord has seen fit in His goodness to give me avision at this place; and among the different things shown were some relating to you.I saw that all was not right with you. The enemy has been seeking your destruction,and endeavoring to influence others through you. I saw that you both take an exaltedposition that God has never assigned you, and that you both consider yourselves farin advance of the people of God. I saw you looking to Battle Creek with jealousyand suspicion. You would place your hands in there, and mold their acts and doingsto what you consider would be right. You are noticing little things that you do notunderstand, that you have not the least to do with, and that in no way concern you.God has committed His work at B.C. to chosen servants. He has laid the burden of thework upon them. Angels of God are commissioned to have oversight of the work; andif it does not move right, those who are at the head of the work will be corrected, andthings will move in God’s order without interference of this or that individual.I saw that God wants you to turn your attention to yourselves. Try your motives.You are deceived in regard to yourselves. You have an appearance of humility, andthis has influence with others, and leads them to think that you are far advanced in theChristian life; but when your peculiar notions are touched, self rises at once, and youmanifest a willful, stubborn spirit. This is a sure evidence that you do not possess truehumility.204
