False Science—Satan’s Modern Robe of Light

move and have our being. Every breath, every throb of the heart, is a
continual evidence of the power of an ever-present God.
Men of the greatest intellect cannot understand the mysteries of
Jehovah as revealed in nature. Divine inspiration asks many questions
which the most profound scholar cannot answer. These questions were
not asked that we might answer them, but to call our attention to the
deep mysteries of God and to teach us that our wisdom is limited; that
in the surroundings of our daily life there are many things beyond the
comprehension of finite minds; that the judgment and purposes of God
are past finding out. His wisdom is unsearchable

The education begun here will not be completed in this life; it
will be going forward throughout eternity, ever progressing, never
completed. Day by day the wonderful works of God, the evidences
of His miraculous power in creating and sustaining the universe, will
open before the mind in new beauty. In the light that shines from
the throne, mysteries will disappear, and the soul will be filled with
astonishment at the simplicity of the things that were never before
comprehended

Warning Against Sensational Religion
At this time we need in the cause of God spiritually minded men,
men who are firm in principle and who have a clear understanding of
the truth.
I have been instructed that it is not new and fanciful doctrines
which the people need. They do not need human suppositions. They
need the testimony of men who know and practice the truth, men who
understand and obey the charge given to Timothy: “Preach the word;
be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all
long-suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will
not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to
themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their
ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in
all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full
proof of thy ministry.”
2 Timothy 4:2-5
