LIGHT IN DARKNESS

 

LIGHT IN DARKNESS

God's work has had the same effect on every era in the world, whether it is a religious reformation or a religious revival. There is a similar principle of God's dealings with humans. There are similarities with the present day religious movements of the latter days of God. There is a great lesson for this time from the identity of the congregation of days gone by. Furthermore, the Bible clearly reveals that God, through His Holy Spirit, leads His servants on this earth and carries out the movement of salvation. Man is a tool in the hands of God. These (human beings) have been appointed to reveal the secrets of His mercy and grace. Every man has to do his part, every man has received a part of the light. He has to adapt it according to the needs of his time and complete the work given by God to the best of his ability. Yet, even though he has received approval from heaven, he has not been given a full understanding of the greater plan of salvation nor the knowledge to fully understand the heavenly meaning of working for his time. Humans do not fully understand what God wants to accomplish by giving them work. They do not even know the essence of the gospel that is preached in his name. Can you find God? Can you see or find God in the real form? The Lord says - "My thought and your thought are not the same, nor is my way and your way." (Isaiah 55:8) “For there is a difference between my ways and yours, and the difference between my thoughts and yours is like heaven and earth. (Isa 55:8) For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one else like me." (Isa 46:6) I have declared the end from the beginning and from ancient times. , which has not happened yet. I say that my strategy will remain firm and I will fulfill my wish." (10 posts)
Even the prophets who were specifically enlightened by the Holy Spirit did not fully understand the meaning of the message they were given. its meaningIt will be opened from one age to another as God's people need to be taught from it.

While writing to Peter, he says of the light of salvation that came through the gospel - "About this salvation the prophets who spoke about the grace that was about to come to you, who were in them and who were before, From the very beginning he was testifying about the sufferings of Christ and about the glory that would follow, what time and what time he was pointing to. He revealed to them, not for his own service, but for your service. These things he said, the news of which is now You received it from those who preached the gospel sent from heaven by the Holy Spirit. Even angels long to observe these things.

The prophets were not given the ability to fully understand the words that were given. That is why they were investigating with great care to understand the light given by God. He investigated it and found it with great effort. They were trying to find out what the spirit of the beast was telling them and what kind of time it was. What a fine lesson this was for God's people for the Christian era. For whose benefit were these prophecies given to his slaves? If it was not given for them, then for whom was it given? Still he continued serving us. They searched deeply for the prophecy that was given to God's saints for the coming generation. Contrary to pious zeal, they paid little attention to this matter but it proved to be a blessing from heaven for the chosen people of the coming generation. For those who loved the world and were content with living a luxurious life and who used to say that who can understand the words of prophecy, this was a severe blow to them.

Although the minds of people with limited intelligence could not fully understand the meaning of the advice or working of the infinitely intelligent God, it was often because of their carelessness or mistake in doing some things that they were unable to understand the gospel of heaven. It seemed unclear. Always because of the wrong teaching in the minds of people or in the minds of God's servants,Due to tradition or being misled by people's ideas, they could not understand the revealed words of God or understood them only half. This was also the condition of Jesus' games when he lived in this world with his disciples. It was wrong that the Israelites would establish their kingdom in this world. Believing in this, when he talked about his suffering, death and resurrection, they were not able to understand.

"Christ also sent them to preach the same message: The time is fulfilled, the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe (Mark 1:15). This news is based on Daniel chapter 6. Angel 3 announced that 66 weeks have been extended for Christ the Prince. With great joy and great hope the disciples were looking forward to the establishment of the kingdom of Sami in Jerusalem to rule over all the land. The message that Christ had told them to preach They preached without understanding it. While the basis of their gospel preaching was in Daniel 6:25, they did not look at the second verse of the same chapter where it was written, After this the anointed man will be cut off. From their birth The notion that Christ's kingdom would be established with great pomp and show on this earth blinded their minds from understanding that particular prophetic sign and the words of Jesus.

He fulfilled his duty by extending the invitation of mercy among the Jewish people. Just when they were expecting Jesus to sit on the throne of David, they saw him being caught like a lamb, whipped and dragged to Mount Calvary and crucified. There was no limit to the disciples' despair when they saw Jesus sleeping in the tomb.

Christ came at the right time as prophesied. The testimony given by the Scriptures regarding His ministry was fulfilled in every letter. He gave the message of salvation with great power. It was heard from his listeners that this news had come from heaven. God's Word and the Holy Spirit had given His Son the sanction of heavenly commission.Could not remember what the Lord had hinted about His suffering and death. If Jesus of Nazareth was the true Christ, would he have fallen into such despair and inner pain? This was the question that was echoing in their minds as Jesus lay on his couch between the Sabbath and the Resurrection. This time was very heartbreaking for him.

Although the night of despair surrounded them from all sides, they were not abandoned. The prophet says - "When I sit in darkness, the Lord is there as my light. He immediately brings me into the light and I can see Him. Yes, darkness shines. For you, night and day are alike. God has said that for him who walks straight and uprightly, light comes out in the night. I will lead the blind man on a path he does not know, I will lead him on a path he does not know. I will make the night a light for him, and will make the crooked paths straight (Micah 7:86, Ps.

Code 136:12, 112:4, Isa. 42:16) Every part of what the disciples had announced in the Lord's name was accurate, and the events they had discussed were coming to pass.

Their communication was that the time has come and the kingdom of God is at hand. When the sixty-nine weeks of Daniel 6 that marked the beginning of Christ's time passed, Christ was baptized in the River Jordan and anointed. Then he preached saying that the kingdom of God is near. That kingdom was established upon the death of Jesus. It was not the earthly kingdom that the mind was thinking about, nor was it about the future eternal kingdom that would be established, a great kingdom that would be greater than the kingdoms on earth. This kingdom will be given to the saints of God. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom and all those who rule will submit to him and obey him. As the Kingdom of God is treated in the Bible. It means the kingdom of both grace and glory. The vision of the kingdom of grace was presented by Paul to the Hebrew congregation. Pointing to Jesus as the merciful Mediator who knows all our weaknesses. Then the apostle says - "Therefore come to the throne of graceLet us keep track of things so that we may receive mercy and receive grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16) The throne of grace represents the kingdom of grace. Because the existence of the throne reveals the existence of the state. Jesus used the kingdom of heaven in many of his parables. It establishes the work of heavenly grace in the hearts of men.

Therefore the throne of glory represents the kingdom of glory. This is the state. “When the Son of man comes, and the holy angels with him, then will he sit on the throne of his glory. And before him will be present people of all races and from all nations (Matthew 25:31, 32) This kingdom is still in the future is going to happen. It will not be established until Jesus comes the second time. The kingdom of grace was established immediately after the fall of man.

Went. This measure was taken only for the salvation of sinful humans. It was established in accordance with God's promise and meaning. People can become his subjects through faith. This kingdom was not established before Jesus died. Even after entering the world for his work, he became tired of people's ingratitude and stubbornness. He could have brought them even after the sacrifice on Mount Calvary. He could have brought them even after the cup of suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane. The cup of suffering in Gethsemane had made him nervous. Even at that time, he could have wiped away the sweat of blood from his forehead and left the sinners in the pit of destruction. If He had done this then there would have been no other way for sinners to escape. While giving up his life on the cross, Jesus cried out - "It is finished." At that very moment, the plan of salvation was assured. The promise of salvation was given to a sinful couple in Edenbari, which was fulfilled. The kingdom of grace that God had previously promised was established. Seeing the death of Jesus, the disciples had lost all hope of establishing the kingdom, but this was the beginning of establishing the kingdom. However, this event It had brought them a great disappointment, yet it was also the final proof of the validity of their faith. This event had caused them to wail and despair, but it had opened the door of hope to Adam's descendants. In this, God's faithful devotees

Let us keep track of things so that we may receive mercy and receive grace to help us in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16) The throne of grace represents the kingdom of grace. Because the existence of the throne reveals the existence of the state. Jesus used the kingdom of heaven in many of his parables. It establishes the work of heavenly grace in the hearts of men.

Therefore the throne of glory represents the kingdom of glory. This is the state. “When the Son of man comes, and the holy angels with him, then will he sit on the throne of his glory. And before him will be present people of all races and from all nations (Matthew 25:31, 32) This kingdom is still in the future is going to happen.

There was a need for completeness. This was not just for himself, he had to take this full faith to the entire world. As soon as they took the first step towards this knowledge, Jesus also showed them the authority of Moses and all the prophets. In this way Jesus presented to His disciples the important and precious verses of the Old Testament. The disciples started seeing Kya Hi's glowing face in their minds. Family) Now more than ever they began to know about Jesus, about whom Moses had already written in the books of the Law and Prophets. Now uncertainty, pain and despair are gone. And instead hope and living faith arose. What a surprise to know that now they gathered every day in the Jerusalem temple to glorify God. Those people who only knew of Jesus' blasphemous death had sad and bewildered faces. But now they watched the victorious resurrection of Jesus with great joy. How hard they prepared for the task now before them! He had to go through a difficult test which he had to experience. He was able to see that when man's vision failed, God triumphantly fulfilled it through love. What happened after this that would shake their faith or spoil the fragrance of their love? In the midst of great sadness he found strong hope. A hope which was like an anchor for the soul, which was found to be both strong and stable. (Hebrews 6:18, 16) They were witnesses of God's wisdom and power and when they received this blessing they said - "Neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor the present, nor the future, nor power, nor height, The depth, nor anything else in creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-36) “The Word of God is abiding forever. (1 Peter 1:25) Who is there to judge? Christ is he who died, and also rose from the dead, and is at the right hand of God, and makes intercession for us. (Romans 8:34)And when they heard his words, their hearts were filled with enthusiasm. They saw the wounded head, hands, and feet of Jesus. Before ascending to heaven, He led the disciples to the village of Bethany and blessed them with both His hands raised up and said - "Go into all the world and preach the gospel, and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the world" (Mark Matthew 16:16 Matthew 28:20) When the promised Helper came down on the Day of Pentecost and they were empowered from heaven, the hearts of the believers were excited by knowing the presence of the Lord, and they also set out on the path of sacrifice and martyrdom like the Lord. They were not afraid to walk. They devoted themselves to the ministry of preaching the gospel of grace, desiring to wear the crown of righteousness at His coming. But in the beginning when they became disciples, they had a desire to inherit the kingdom of the world. Our Asking And he gives more abundantly than they think, so he gave them the joy of suffering with him, of telling about his joy of bringing many people into the kingdom of God - all this inexpressible joy and eternal happiness of glory, about which Paul He says - Our short-term sorrow which is momentary but cannot be compared with that eternal happiness, is nothing in front of Him. The death of Christ which destroyed their hope. was that which made it

The disciples who preached the gospel of the first coming of Jesus Christ and received recognition, the same second part of recognition was given to those disciples who preached the gospel of the second coming. "Just as the time has come when the disciples went out preaching, the kingdom of God has come near." Similarly, Miller and his companions spoke about the last and longest prophecy and said that the time of God has come near. He will judge his people. and to give them eternal life. The basis for the disciples' preaching was the chronological 70-week period of Daniel chapter 6. The message presented by Miller and his colleagues was based on the prophecy of Daniel 8:14 about the end of the 2300 days. which was in the same meaning i.e. 70

part of the week. The basis of every propaganda was the fulfillment of that long prophecy.

Different parts of the body Like the oxen, William Miller and his associates did not fully understand the message that they preached. The misconceptions that were prevalent in the congregation earlier prevented them from understanding its true meaning and thus deviated from the main direction of the prophecy. For this reason, he preached the word given by God but due to mistake in its interpretation, he had to feel sad.

Daniel 8:14 states that the holy place will not be purified until 2300 days have passed. On this basis, Miller reflects the belief of the common people that the earth is the sacred tent and says that when the Lord comes to this earth, he will purify it by raining fire and brimstone, that is, the Lord is coming. Therefore when He said that the end of 2300 days definitely meant the second coming of Jesus to this earth. His mistake made it difficult for the common people to believe who the holy place actually represented.

The ritual ministry conducted in the holy place reflected Jesus' sacrifice and priestly function. There, the purification of all the years' work was done once a year by the high priest in the most holy place. This was the final act of atonement, and the removal of the sins of the Israelites. This represented the work of our High Priest in heaven. And our sins written in the book of heaven had to be erased. This work is called investigative justice. Immediately afterward it shows the coming of Jesus with great power and glory from the clouds of heaven. Before his arrival everyone should decide whether they will go to heaven or hell. Jesus says "I have to reward every man according to his work." (Revelation 22:12) Jesus will depart from heaven immediately after this is done. This work of judgment is foretold by the angel in Revelation 14:7 "Fear God and give Him glory, for the hour of His judgment has come."

Those who propagated this dialogue spoke the right words at the right time.How told? This is based on Daniel chapter 6 as the early disciples declared that the time is fulfilled and the kingdom of Ever is at hand. There is also a prophecy of Jesus' death here which cannot be understood. Therefore, Miller and his colleagues could not understand the second dialogue in Daniel 8:14 and Revelation 14:7, which also had to be given before the coming of Jesus. Just as the disciples misunderstood that the kingdom would be established after 70 weeks, so too have Adventists misunderstood what will happen at the end of the 2300 days. In both cases their intellect was blinded from grasping the truth by falling into or believing in the popular error. Both people gave the communication what God wanted, and both were disappointed because of their misunderstanding of the communication.

God fulfilled His beneficial intention by giving the warning of justice that was to be given. The great day was near and according to God's providence people were brought to trial for a certain time. This revealed what was in their hearts. This dialogue was to test and purify the church. They were tested to see whether their hearts were in this world or in Jesus and His Kingdom of Heaven? They had yet to prove that they loved the Savior. Were they ready to give up their worldly attachments and welcome the arrival of the Lord? This dialogue was capable of identifying his true spiritual condition. This communication was mercifully sent to him so that he might seek the Lord with a repentant and humble heart.

Giving this communication meant that they could recognize their true spiritual condition. This communication was given to them by grace so that they might be inspired to seek the Lord with a repentant and humble heart.

The disappointment he faced was also a result of his misunderstanding of communication. He had told it to others. But in the end it became a cause of good for them. It could cause a testing of hearts for those who were receiving the warning. When due to not being able to face the severe disappointment, they quickly give up their identity and do not even believe in the word of God. whether in prayer or pleadingThey would become absorbed and avoid those mistakes where they could not understand. Be able to understand the specialty of this type of prediction.

There were many people who accepted it out of fear and how many people accepted it hastily. And how many people believed half-heartedly and were influenced by superstition. Many people were looking forward to the second coming of the Lord i.e. His coming to Bodals. When they were asked to endure the mockers and slanderers of the world, then to face the delay and disappointment of coming, they abandoned their faith.

They could not immediately understand the work that was going on for them according to God's plan. Despite the clear help or witness of His Word, they left the truth aside and went away. This criterion shows the conviction of those who truly believed the truth and believed that it was taught in accordance with the Spirit and Word of God. The Bible which teaches from its own translation. If they forget this and teach it based on their own identity, then they may be in danger and may deviate from the truth. If believers feel nervous and sad because of their mistakes, then there is a need to correct the mistake. Thus they have to concentrate more to study the predictions. They need to examine the foundation of their belief very carefully. During this time, all those doctrines widely held among Christendom that are not taught on the basis of Biblical truth had to be abandoned.

This was the condition of these believers and disciples of Jesus in the beginning. The disciples were going through a time of darkness when Jesus was crucified. They could not understand what would happen. But later they understood when Jesus rose again. Due to a mistake in their understanding, they were disappointed when they saw Jesus' final death on the cross, but when he rose from the dead, they realized that the meaning of his love for them was gradually being fulfilled. On the basis of blessed knowledge one can learn that He is a very merciful and compassionate Lord. All His ways are full of mercy and truth for those who keep His covenant and testimony. सकल ती
