Christian Experience and Teachings of Ellen G. White
Comparing the Bible expression, “the testimony of Jesus,” with the
statement of
Revelation 12:17
concerning the “remnant ... which keep
the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ,”
we conclude that prior to Christ’s second coming His true church will
be keeping His commandments, and that they will have the Spirit of
prophecy.
The rapid fulfillment of the predictions of Holy Scripture regarding
the signs and events which were to mark the closing scenes of earth’s
history, is a sure evidence that we are now living in the last days.
Therefore a company of Christian people who keep the commandments
of God and who have the testimony of Jesus Christ—the Spirit of
prophecy—should today be in existence. Where may they be found?
