INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT SCENE 2

Dan. 7: 9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment [was] white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne [was like] the fiery flame, [and] his wheels [as] burning

fire. 7:10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood

before him: the JUDGMENT was SET, and the BOOKS were OPENED.

JUDGMENT

EVERYBODY’S NAME IS ENTERED HERE—WE’RE

BORN IN SIN AND SHAPEN IN INIQUITY

NAMES ENTERED HERE WHEN WE ACCEPT

CHRIST

DEEDS RECORDED HERE AFTER ACCEPTING

CHRIST

Sidebar—ALL names are entered into the Book of Iniquity simply as a result of having been being born in sin and shapen in iniquity; however, when we accept Christ as our personal Savior, then our names are entered into the Book of Life. However, our names remain in the Book of Iniquity and will either be blotted out of the Book of Iniquity or blotted out of the Book of Life, in the judgment. As for the Book of Remembrance, this is the book of our good deeds and these deeds matter to God only when we accept Him as our Savior, Redeemer, and Restorer. Mere philanthropists (Bill Gates, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey etc.) mean nothing to God unless these philanthropists have a vital connection with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

OUR PLEA IS, “MAY OUR NAMES REMAIN IN THE LAMB’S BOOK OF LIFE”!!

Ecclesiastes 12; 14 For GOD shall bring every work into JUDGMENT, with every secret thing, whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil.

THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION OF GOD’S PEOPLE’S WORDS, THOUGHTS & ACTIONS!Rev. 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, 14:7Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his JUDGMENT is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

JUDGMENT TAKES PLACE IN THE MOST HOLY PLACESidebar—these Scriptures take us back to 1844 when Christ went from the Holy Place in the Heavenly Sanctuary to the Most Holy Place in the Heavenly Sanctuary. In the typical service of the sanctuary, it was on the day of atonement, (10th day of 7th month), that the people of God had to have VICTORY OVER EVERY SIN! When the priest came out of the Most Holy Place, he bore the sins of Israel in his body; he then went through the Holy Place to the outer court where God allowed him to survey the camp for anyone whose sins were not confessed and placed on the veil. Those persons whose sins were not confessed were put out of the camp because God had to have a PURE PEOPLE! Then the priest put both hands on the scapegoat representing Satan and laid all the confessed sins of Israel on him; after which the goat was led by a fit man out into the wilderness, never to return. HALLELUIA!! (The Lord’s goat, representing Jesus, had already been slain.) Christ has been in the Most Holy Place for 170 yrs, this coming Oct 22, 2014; it doesn’t take Him that long to investigate and blot out our sins or our names; He’s waiting on His people to reflect His image FULLY and we can’t reflect His image fully until we, by God’s Grace, STOP SINNING!

Sidebar Cont’d—And so, we must put all of our confessed sins on the veil; our sins must go beforehand to judgment NOW, for if they don’t go beforehand to judgment,

they can not be put on the head of the scapegoat, they will remain on our own heads.

The Prophet Speaks—Those who would share the benefits of the Saviour's mediation should permit nothing to interfere with their duty to perfect holiness in the fear of God. The precious hours, instead of being given to pleasure, to display, or to gain seeking, should be devoted to an earnest, prayerful study of the word of truth. The subject of the sanctuary and the investigative judgment should be clearly understood by the people of God. All need a knowledge for themselves of the position and work of their great High Priest. Otherwise it will be impossible for them to exercise the faith which is

essential at this time or to occupy the position which God designs them to fill. Every individual has a soul to save or to lose. Each has a case pending at the bar of God. Each must meet the great Judge face to face. How important, then, that every mind contemplate often the solemn scene when the judgment shall sit and the books shall be opened, when, with Daniel, every individual must stand in his lot, at the end of the days. {GC 488.2}

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual

wickedness in high [places]. (We can not get angry with men who are teaching false doctrine because they are led by Satan; Jesus didn’t get angry.)

1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow HIS steps:

2:22 Who DID NO SIN, neither was guile found in his mouth: 2:23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered,

he threatened not; but committed [himself] to him that judgeth righteously:

Sidebar—This is all about CHARACTER BUILDING to see who, by the Grace of God, is worthy to go to His kingdom, to see who, by the Grace of God, is accounted to be a part of this team to FINISH THE WORK by getting rid of SIN and helping others toward this same goal, to see who, by the Grace of God, is reflecting the image of JESUS FULLY in order to VINDICATE THE CHARACTER OF GOD BEFORE THE UNIVERSE; to see who God can trust, because SIN CANNOT ARISE A SECOND TIME. Jesus has to be able to produce a people who can stand before God without a Mediator when Christ stands up to exit the Most Holy Place. Paul says “I DIE DAILY”. Check out this scenario—if while attending the funeral of someone you didn’t like, you decided to walk pass the man in the casket and slap him one last time, but when you did it, the man rose up out of the casket and slapped you back, THAT MAN WAS NOT DEAD. Dead folk do NOT RETALIATE!

FALL ON THE SWORD WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD, COMMIT SUICIDE, AND YOU’LL LIVE TO TELL/SHOUT ABOUT IT!!

Satan’s war is on the

REMNANT and he uses men to accomplish his purpose.

The enemy is preparing for his last campaign against the church. He has so concealed himself from view that many can hardly believe that he exists, much less can they be convinced of his amazing activity and power. . . . {Mar 64.2}

Rev. 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

DESMOND FORD SPEAKS 2008TAKEN FROM A VIDEO CLIP

Dr. Desmond Ford, in this clip, is flat-out denying the integrity of the Advent Movement, the Spirit of Prophecy, the 2300 days of Daniel 8: 14, the investigative judgment, and the Sanctuary. He is standing in the pulpit of the Campus Hill SDA church in California; he has a PHD yet he can NOT reconcile the aforementioned doctrines with the Word of God. That’s what this false system of education will do for an individual. (I think I remember Dr. Ford stating in this clip that he doesn’t believe in the first 5 chapters of the Bible, that’s Creation.—sounds to me like he’s on the road to perdition)

Remember now, Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places]. (We can not get angry with men who are teaching false doctrine because they are led by Satan; Jesus didn’t get angry.)

SAMUEL PIPIM

AUTHOR

In Samuel Pipim’s book “Here We Stand” can be found the following statements:Among the Adventist doctrines that Dr. Ford opposes are the sanctuary, 1844, the investigative Judgment, the remnant church, and the role of the Spirit of Prophecy. In 1979, he publicly announced that he had not believed some of these doctrines for the past 35 years because he could not reconcile the writing of Ellen White with the book of Hebrews. In 2002, Ford at last publicly admitted that he did not believe in “the creation of the world in six literal days” a few thousand years ago. (page 27)

After Dr. Ford was dismissed from denominational employment in 1980, a staggering 180 ministers left the ministry within the next decade. However, most of his followers and sympathizers remained in the church. HE URGED THEM TO DO THIS, SO THEY COULD USE THEIR INFLUENCE MORE EFFECTIVELY TO CHANGE THE CHURCH. MANY HAVE SINCE ENJOYED POSITIONS OF TRUST AND RESPONSIBILITY. (page 27)

AND THAT’S WHY WE’RE IN THE MESS WE’RE IN TODAY—CRIPPLED PREACHERS CRIPPLING MEMBERS WHO DON’T STUDY!

THE WHOLE PLAN OF REDEMPTION AND RESTORATION IS IN THE SANCTUARY!!THAT’S A GOOD REASON FOR SATAN TO TRY AND GET RID OF IT!!

THIS IS A 6,000 YR. PLAN & WE’RE AT THE END OF 6,000

Rev. 12: 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

Sidebar—Satan as a DRAGON is a PERSECUTOR; he was trying to kill Jesus as soon as HE was born and he used king Herod who ordered every male child under the age of two years old should be killed. The enemy of God and man has four personality types: As a dragon, he’s a persecutor, as a serpent, he’s a tempter, as the devil, he’s the deceiver, and as Satan, he’s the adversary.

Satan’s Counterfeit Jesus

in Most Holy Place

The Prophet Speaks— Satan is marshalling his forces for the last great struggle, "to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." If we would be true to God, we cannot escape the conflict. But we are not left in doubt as to the issue. Beyond the smoke and heat of the battle, we behold "them that had gotten the victory" standing on Mount Zion with the Lamb. And still there come to us down through the ages, those words of our Saviour, "In the world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." {RH, July 18, 1882 par. 26}

It is often the case that trouble is greater in anticipation than in reality; but this is not true of the crisis before us. The most vivid presentation cannot reach the magnitude of the ordeal.--GC 621, 622 (1911). {LDE 254.3} When Jesus leaves the most holy His restraining Spirit is withdrawn from rulers and people. They are left to the control of evil angels. Then such laws will be made by the counsel and direction of Satan that, unless time should be very short, no flesh could be saved.--1T 204 (1859). {LDE 255.1}

The Prophet Cont’d—We are to be ready and waiting for the orders of God. Nations will be stirred to their very center. Support will be withdrawn from those who proclaim God's only standard of righteousness, the only sure test of character. And all who will not bow to the decree of the national councils and obey the national laws to exalt the sabbath instituted by the man of sin, to the disregard of God's holy day, will feel, not the oppressive power of popery alone, but of the Protestant world, the image of the beast. {2SM 380.1} Satan will work his miracles to deceive; he will set up his power as supreme. The church may appear as about to fall, but it does not fall. It remains, while the sinners in Zion will be sifted out--the chaff separated from the precious wheat. This is a terrible ordeal, but nevertheless it must take place. None but those who have been overcoming by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony will be found with the loyal and true, without spot or stain of sin, without guile in their mouths. We must be divested of our self-righteousness and arrayed in the righteousness of Christ. {2SM 380.2}

The Prophet Cont’d—God's purpose in giving the THIRD ANGEL'S MESSAGE to the world is to prepare a people to stand true to Him during the investigative judgment. This is the purpose for which we establish and maintain our publishing houses, our schools, our sanitariums, hygienic restaurants, treatment rooms, and food factories. This is our purpose in carrying forward every line of work in the cause. Ms 154, 1902, p. 4. ("Instruction to Men in Positions of Responsibility," October 24, 1902.) {1MR 228.2}

Sidebar—We don’t have any of the aforementioned institutions functioning as God intended TODAY! BUT their purpose was to prepare a people to stand during the INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT! However, Satan has been seeking gradually to rob this message of its power, that the people may not be prepared to stand in the day of the Lord. {RH, March 22, 1887 par. 8} The day of the Lord is during the INVESTIGATIVE JUDGMENT.

The Prophet Cont’d—The judgment is now passing in the sanctuary above. For many years this work has been in progress. Soon—none know how soon—it will pass to the cases of the living. {CCh 349.1}

Sidebar—Jesus, the SEED, has to produce a people on this Earth who will REFLECT His IMAGE FULLY before HE STANDS UP and comes out of the Most Holy Place. If Jesus can’t do that, Satan’s claim that the Law of God can NOT be kept even by the Power of the Indwelling Christ would prove to be true. Jesus is NOT a liar, HIS SEED, THE REMNANT will REFLECT HIS IMAGE FULLY; WE JUST HAVE TO DECIDE IF WE WANNA BE A PART OF THOSE TO FINISH THE WORK BY COOPERATING WITH JESUS IN THE PUTTING AWAY OF SIN IN OUR LIVES, BY RECEIVING THE SEAL OF GOD, BY ACCESSING THE POWER OF THE LATTER RAIN, BY GIVING THE LOUD CRY TO GOD’S PEOPLE, NOT OF THIS FOLD, AND THEN WE CAN GO HOME TO LIVE WITH JESUS ETERNALLY!!!!

To DECIDE means many things—it means HAVING A VITAL CONNECTION WITH JESUS—ACCEPTING HEALTH REFORM, DRESS REFORM, MUSIC REFORM, WORSHIP REFORM, ENTERTAINMENT REFORM—NO T V—NO COMPETITIVE SPORTS—EXAMINING OURSELVES—(CONFESSING and REPENTING)-—STUDYING THE WORD OF GOD & SPIRIT OF PROPHECY—DENYING SELF (eating to live; not living to eat)—PRAYING CONTINUALLY—(listening while God speaks; speaking while God listens)—CONFESSION and REPENTANCE—AFFLICTING OUR SOULS—etc.

ALL OF WHICH TAKES PLACE ON THE DAY OF ATONEMENT!!!! THE DAY IN WHICH WE NOW LIVE

NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW

The Prophet Speaks—Now, when the great work of judging the living is about to begin, shall we allow unsanctified ambition to take possession of the heart and lead us to neglect the education required to meet the needs in this day of peril? {6T 130.1} In every case the great decision is to be made whether we shall receive the mark of the beast or his image, or the seal of the living God. And now, when we are on the borders of the eternal world, what can be of so much value to us as to be found loyal and true to the God of heaven?

Sidebar—KNOW THIS! It is at the PASSING of the NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW that judgment will pass from the DEAD to the LIVING! There will be no more getting ready time for Seventh-day Adventists; that time is NOW!

THE PROPHET SPEAKS CONT’D—The Sabbath will be the great test of loyalty; for it is the point of truth especially controverted. When the FINAL TEST shall be brought to bear upon men, then the line of distinction will be drawn between those who serve God and those who serve him not. While the observance of the false sabbath in compliance with the law of the State, contrary to the fourth commandment, will be an avowal of allegiance to a power that is in opposition to God, the keeping of the true Sabbath, in obedience to God's law, is an evidence of loyalty to the Creator. While ONE CLASS, by accepting the sign of submission to earthly powers, receive the MARK OF THE BEAST, THE OTHER, choosing the token of allegiance to divine authority, receive the SEAL OF GOD. [SEE APPENDIX, NOTE 13.] {GC88 605.2} F

Sidebar—It is the spurious sabbath issue, the Sunday Law, that is going to determine who will receive the Seal of God or who will receive the Mark of the Beast. It is the LIVING who will take the TEST of the Sabbath question at the PASSING of the NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW. And when the LIVING SDAs who have NOT PREPARED THEMSELVES DURING THIS PROBATIONARY PERIOD BY ESTABLISHING A VITAL CONNECTION WITH CHRIST, cave in and give up their FAITH in TRUE SABBATH OBSERVANCE, RIGHT THEN, THEY WILL BE WEIGHED IN THE BALANCES AND FOUND WANTING—THIS IS THE JUDGMENT PASSING FROM THE DEAD TO THE LIVING.

FINAL TEST

The Prophet Cont’d— Never did this message apply with greater force than it applies today. More and more the world is setting at nought the claims of God. Men have become bold in transgression. The wickedness of the inhabitants of the world has almost filled up the measure of their iniquity. This earth has almost reached the place where God will permit the destroyer to work his will upon it. The substitution of the laws of men for the law of God, the exaltation, by merely human authority, of Sunday in place of the Bible Sabbath, is the last act in the drama. When this substitution becomes universal, God will reveal Himself. He will arise in His majesty to shake terribly the earth. He will come out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the world for their iniquity, and the earth shall disclose her blood and shall no more cover her slain. {7T 141.1}

Matt. 24:8 All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.

THE NATIONAL SUNDAY LAW PASSES BETWEEN VERSES 8 and 9

Matt. 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

The Prophet Cont’d—The great conflict that Satan created in the heavenly courts is soon, very soon, to be forever decided. Soon all the inhabitants of the earth will have taken sides, either for or against the government of heaven. Now, as never before, Satan is exercising his deceiving power to mislead and to destroy every unguarded soul. We are called upon to arouse the people to prepare for the great issues before them. We must give warning to those who are standing on the very brink of ruin. God's people are to put forth every power in combating Satan's falsehoods and pulling down his strongholds. To every human being in the wide world who will give heed, we are to make plain the principles at stake in the great controversy--principles upon which hangs the eternal destiny of the soul.

The tares and the wheat are to grow together until the harvest; and the harvest is the end of probationary time. {COL 71.3}

So now, a sudden and unlooked-for calamity, something that brings the soul face to face with death, will show whether there is any real faith in the promises of God. It will show whether the soul is sustained by grace. The great final test {NSL} comes at the close of human probation, when it will be too late for the soul's need to be supplied. {COL 412.1}
