Here's an urgent, vital question: Do you know what the Straight Testimony is, and why it's so important? We MUST know the answer to this question! Our destiny depends upon it!
We must understand just how we are to reflect the image of Jesus, and how to die to self. We must get ready, get ready, get ready!
In a view given June 27, 1850, my accompanying angel said, "Time is almost finished. Do you reflect the lovely image of Jesus as you should?" Then I was pointed to the earth and saw that there would have to be a getting ready among those who have of late embraced the third angel's message. Said the angel, "Get ready, get ready, get ready. Ye will have to die a greater death to the world than ye have ever yet died." I saw that there was a great work to do for them and but little time in which to do it. {EW 64.1}

God calls upon His Last Day Church to overcome on EVERY point, be the price what it may.

Can you hear the Spirit of God whispering to you? We must tune our hearts to hear the slightest whisper from the Holy Spirit.
Keep the conscience tender, that you may hear the faintest whisper of the voice that spake as never man spake. {ML 322.5}
The Holy Spirit will work upon minds if we will hearken to its faintest whispers. It is the voice of your Advocate in the heavenly courts. {17MR 193.3}
As we listen to His voice, and respond to His entreaties, we will find it is our joy and delight to please Him in every area of our lives.
So, here's the basic stragety for being ready for Christ's soon return:
Learn what the Straight Testimony is, and listen to it.
Seek the Lord for a willing heart so that you will receive it, and not rise up against it.
Commit to an ongoing exposure to the Straight Testimony, not just on this site, but through the inspired Testimonies of the Spirit of Prophecy.
Plead with the Lord for POWER to obey the Straight Testimony!
Overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and the faith of Jesus, through His abiding power.
Share your own testimony of faith and victory, which will inspire others.
Rejoice in the Lord as you allow Him to perfect your character, reflecting Him fully!
Remember, your eternal destiny hangs upon your willingness to receive and respond to the Straight Testimony!
May God bless you abundantly as you seek Him with all your heart!
A living testimony that will awaken the paralyzed conscience is to be borne. {RH, December 1, 1896 par. 8}
When I see the work that lies before us, and when I see how poorly we comprehend what God requires of us, I am in an agony of distress. Here is the Word of God. Will you take it? Or will you be rejected by the Lord because, though professing much, your spirit and words and actions are void of the warmth of His Spirit? A lifeless profession is nauseating to God. Christ can not present before the Father those who are lukewarm. He declares: "So then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of My mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked"--Are you going to live so that, when Christ comes, you will be among the number of whom He says, "And knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked"? May God awaken us, and break our hearts of stone, is my prayer. We need to feel His converting power. His praise should fill our hearts and lips. The fragrance of Christ's life is to be brought into our life. Then we can represent the great I AM. The Lord wants to work with us. He wants us to know just where we are standing. {GCB, April 6, 1903 par. 27}
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
