No Failure of God’s Promises—The angels of God in their messages to men represent time as very short. Thus it has always been presented to me. It is true that time has continued longer than we expected in the early days of this message. Our Saviour did not appear as soon as we hoped. But has the Word of the Lord failed? Never! It should be remembered that the promises and the threatenings of God are alike conditional. {Ev 695.1}

(695) Guds løfter svigter ikke. - Guds engle fortæller mennesker i deres budskaber at tiden er meget kort. Sådan er det altid blevet overbragt mig. Det er sandt at der gået mere tid end forventet, i dette budskabs første dage. Vor frelser viser sig ikke så hurtigt for os, som vi havde håbet. Men har Herrens ord svigtet? Aldrig! Det burde ihukommes at Guds løfter og trusler har samme betingelser.
