Confusion of Many Voices, June 30
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my
people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of
her plagues.
Revelation 18:4
.
In the last work for the warning of the world, two distinct calls are made
to the churches. The second angel’s message is, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen,
that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath
of her fornication.” And in the loud cry of the third angel’s message a voice
is heard from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not
partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins
have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.”
As God called the children of Israel out of Egypt, that they might keep
His Sabbath, so He calls His people out of Babylon, that they may not
worship the beast or his image....
After the truth has been proclaimed as a witness to all nations, every
conceivable power of evil will be set in operation, and minds will be con-
fused by many voices crying, “Lo, here is Christ, Lo, He is there. This is the
truth, I have the message from God, He has sent me with great light.” Then
there will be a removing of the landmarks, and an attempt to tear down the
pillars of our faith. A more decided effort will be made to exalt the false
sabbath, and to cast contempt upon God Himself by supplanting the day
He has blessed and sanctified. This false sabbath is to be enforced by an
oppressive law.... But while Satan works with his lying wonders, the time
will be fulfilled foretold in the Revelation, and the mighty angel that shall
lighten the earth with his glory, will proclaim the fall of Babylon, and call
upon God’s people to forsake her.
When do her sins reach unto heaven? When the law of God is finally
made void by legislation. Then the extremity of God’s people is His oppor-
tunity to show who is the governor of heaven and earth. As a Satanic power
is stirring up the elements from beneath, God will send light and power to
His people, that the message of truth may be proclaimed to all the world.
