The third angel, flying in the midst of heaven and heralding the commandments of God and the testimony of Jesus, represents our work. The message loses none of its force in the angel’s onward flight, for John sees it increasing in strength and power until the whole earth is lightened with its glory. The course of God’s commandment-keeping people is onward, ever onward. The message of truth that we bear must go to nations, tongues, and peoples. Soon it will go with a loud voice, and the earth will be lightened with its glory. Are we preparing for this great outpouring of the Spirit of God? {5T 383.2}

[Den tredje engel, der flyver midt oppe under himmelen og forkynder Guds bud og Jesu vidnesbyrd, er en fremstilling af vort arbejde. Budskabet mister intet af sin kraft under engelens flugt fremad; for Johannes ser, at det tiltager i styrke og magt, indtil hele jorden oplyses af dets herlighed. Guds lovlydige folks vej fører fremad, stadig fremad. Det sandhedsbudskab, vi forkynder, må gå til folkeslag og stammer og tungemål og folk. Snart vil det lyde med høj røst og jorden vil blive oplyst af dets herlighed. Forbereder vi os til denne store udgydelse af Guds Ånd? Vejl f menigh bd. 2 side 142]
