The Lord Is Soon Coming . [Special Testimonies, Series A 3:12, 13 (1895).]The end of all things is at hand. The Lord is soon coming. Already His judgments are abroad in our land. We are not only to talk of Christ’s coming, but in every action we are to reveal the fact that He is soon to be manifested in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Have we the wedding garment on? Have we personal piety? Have we cooperated with divine agencies in a wholehearted, unreserved manner, in weaving into our life’s practices the divine principles of God’s holy law? It is one thing to talk the law, and it is another thing entirely to practice it. It is the doers of the law that shall be justified before God; for those who do the law represent the character of God, and lie not against the truth. {TM 187.1}

Alle tings ende er nær. Herren kommer snart. Hans domme er ude i vort land. Vi skal ikke kun tale om Kristi komme, men i enhver handling skal vi vise den kendsgerning at han snart vil vise sig i himlens skyer med kraft og megen herlighed. Har vi bryllups klædningen på? Har vi personlig medlidenhed? Har vi samarbejdet med de guddommelige repræsentanter, på en helhjertet, uforbeholden måde, ved at indflette Guds hellige lovs grundsætningers fremgangsmåder i vore liv? Det er een ting at tale om loven, og det er en helt anden ting at udøve den. Det er lovens gørere der vil blive forsvaret for Gud; for dem som udfører loven fremstiller Guds karakter, og lyver ikke mod sandheden.
