The W. W. Prescott Armadale Sermons - Fred Bischoff

Said my guide, "There is much light yet to shine forth from the law of
God and the gospel of righteousness. This message, understood in its true
character, and proclaimed in the Spirit, will lighten the earth with its glory.
The great decisive question is to be brought before all nations, tongues, and
peoples. The closing work of the third angel’s message will be attended with
a power that will send the rays of the Sun of Righteousness into all the
highways and byways of life, and decisions will be made for God as supreme
Governor; His law will be looked upon as the rule of His government."

presentation of justification by faith, but just as soon as Christ is discovered
in his true position in relation to the law, the misconception that has existed

these subjects in perfect agreement. The law is the gospel of Christ veiled;
the gospel of Jesus is nothing more or less than the law defined, showing its
far-reaching principles. "Search the Scriptures," is the injunction of our Lord.
Search to find out what is truth. God has given us a test whereby to prove
doctrine: "To the law and to the testimony; if they speak not according to this
word, it is because there is no light in them." Search the Scriptures diligently,
earnestly, unweariedly, to find out what God has revealed concerning
yourself, your duties, your work, your responsibilities, your future, that you
may make no mistake in seeking for eternal life. You may, in
searching the Scriptures, know the mind and the will of God; and
