Number III - LAST WARNING

III Chapter

(The Third Notebook, October 2002)

LAST WARNING

FOREWORD

I am aware that every word in this notebook, third from the beginning, which I publish following the strict God’s commandment, in the minds of many will sound like a hard word, but I can not and must not keep silent about what I saw and heard; as Jeremiah the prophet said: »O Lord, You induced me, and I was persuaded; You are stronger than I, and have prevailed. I am in derision daily; everyone mocks me. For when I spoke, I cried out; I shouted, 'Violence and plunder!' Because the word of the Lord was made to me a reproach and a derision daily. Then I said, 'I will not make mention of Him, nor speak anymore in His name.' But His word was in my heart like a burning fire shut up in my bones; I was weary of holding it back, and I could not.«

In the evening of 21 October 2002 the Holy God’s Spirit came upon me and let me know that I must not hesitate to reveal to the public revelations that had been given to me, so as to make on time this last warning that the heaven is sending to you. 

On the 17th October this year (2002) the Lord has shown to me that to those in this area, who had had the priority to be first during this time to accept the light, only a month had been left to accept the warnings and appeals for the total and sincere repentance, and that there will be no other time of mercy for them. It was shown to me that during November God Himself shall rise, as He did in the old times, in order to defend honour of His holy name, and that the events, which will begin in the period, will clearly show and confirm that the right to govern the Christian Church of Adventists of the Seventh day had been taken away from the people, who despised and rejected all the warnings and appeals that the heaven had been sending to them, and that it was given to the ordinary people, through whose work the God is going to complete His work in this world.

A special warning has been sent just to those people, who stand contrary to this work for a long period already and with their inimical activities they blaspheme and dispraise the sanctity of the holy name of God, which they took for themselves. In the night visions, which content I reveal in this writing, the plans were shown to me that they made at their secret gatherings, while in front of the people they tried to make an impression of being religious by seemingly faithfully doing their duties. The Lord says: »Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and say 'Who sees us?', and, 'Who knows us?'« (Is. 29,15). The anger that lays on them is huge, as well as on all those who call themselves “His people”, but do not live following the truth that has been given to them. God is merciful, but just at the same time, and soon shall feel the strength of His judgements those who will not obey to this voice of warning. 

It is my duty to stress once more that after this warning there will not be another one and that many, who would not answer this appeal, will receive equal to their doings in the coming days. The time is very near when the following words will be fulfilled: »Then He called out in my hearing with a loud voice, saying, "Let those who have charge over the city draw near, each with a deadly weapon in his hand." And He called to the man clothed with linen, who had the writer's inkhorn at his side; and the Lord said to him, "Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and cry over all the abominations that are done within it." To the others He said in my hearing, "Go after him through the city and kill; do not let your eye spare, nor have any pity. Utterly slay old and young men, maidens and little children and women; but do not come near anyone on whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary." So they began with the elders who were before the temple.« (Ezekiel 9,1.3-6)

I call upon all those, to whom these words apply, to accept it without delay, till there is still time left for that, because the door of mercy is closing slowly.

»For more than a thousand years the Jewish nation had abused God's mercy and invited His judgments. They had rejected His warnings and slain His prophets. For these sins the people of Christ's day made themselves responsible by following the same course. In the rejection of their present mercies and warnings lay the guilt of that generation. The fetters which the nation had for centuries been forging, the people of Christ's day were fastening upon themselves. In every age there is given to men their day of light and privilege, a probationary time in which they may become reconciled to God. But there is a limit to this grace. Mercy may plead for years and be slighted and rejected; but there comes a time when mercy makes her last plea. The heart becomes so hardened that it ceases to respond to the Spirit of God. Then the sweet, winning voice entreats the sinner no longer, and reproofs and warnings cease.

The Jewish nation was a symbol of the people of all ages who scorn the pleadings of Infinite Love. The tears of Christ when He wept over Jerusalem were for the sins of all time. In the judgments pronounced upon Israel, those who reject the reproofs and warnings of God's Holy Spirit, may read their own condemnation.

In this generation there are many who are treading on the same ground as were the unbelieving Jews. They have witnessed the manifestation of the power of God; the Holy Spirit has spoken to their hearts; but they cling to their unbelief and resistance. God sends them warnings and reproof, but they are not willing to confess their errors, and they reject His message and His messenger. The very means He uses for their recovery becomes to them a stone of stumbling.

The prophets of God were hated by apostate Israel because through them their hidden sins were brought to light. Ahab regarded Elijah as his enemy because the prophet was faithful to rebuke the king's secret iniquities. So today the servant of Christ,the reprover of sin, meets with scorn and rebuffs. Bible truth, the religion of Christ, struggles against a strong current of moral impurity. Prejudice is even stronger in the hearts of men now than in Christ's day. Christ did not fulfill men's expectations; His life was a rebuke to their sins, and they rejected Him. So now the truth of God's word does not harmonize with men's practices and their natural inclination, and thousands reject its light. Men prompted by Satan cast doubt upon God's word, and choose to exercise their independent judgment. They choose darkness rather than light, but they do it at the peril of their souls. Those who caviled at the words of Christ, found ever-increased cause for cavil, until they turned from the Truth and the Life. So it is now. God does not propose to remove every objection which the carnal heart may bring against His truth. To those who refuse the precious rays of light which would illuminate the darkness, the mysteries of God's word remain such forever. From them the truth is hidden. They walk blindly, and know not the ruin before them.

Christ overlooked the world and all ages from the height of Olivet; and His words are applicable to every soul who slights the pleadings of divine mercy. Scorner of His love, He addresses you today. It is "thou, even thou," who shouldest know the things that belong to thy peace. Christ is shedding bitter tears for you, who have no tears to shed for yourself. Already that fatal hardness of heart which destroyed the Pharisees is manifest in you. And every evidence of the grace of God, every ray of divine light, is either melting and subduing the soul, or confirming it in hopeless impenitence.« (DA 584 – 588 )

THE STATE OF THE CHURCH

The word, that comes from the Lord: »Hear the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who enter in at these gates to worship the Lord! Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: "Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. "Do not trust in these lying words, saying, 'The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord are these. For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings... 

Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit. Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, and then come and stand before Me in this house which is called by My name, and say, 'We are delivered to do all these abominations'? Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of thieves in your eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it," says the Lord. And now, because you have done all these works," says the Lord, "and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear, and I called you, but you did not answer, therefore I will do to this house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to this place which I gave to you and your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.«  

In a night vision on the 27th June 2002 I saw the state of our people today. I found myself in one of the praying houses, which represented the type of Adventist Church of the Seventh day around the world. As unvisible watcher, I sat in one of the last rows of the seats in the hall of this local church and watched everything that happened in front of my eyes, while the words of a completely mundane song echoed through the half-empty hall; the song was part of the regular service. In  an inspiration it was shown to me that the participants were aware that either the song or the words, which should have been devoted to the Holy and Almighty God, were totally inappropriate, but yet there was nobody there to raise a voice and stop the performance of that shameful doing. Instead of that, they tried to harmonize their voices and to create a false impression of security and peace. 

The Lord showed to me with that symbolic picture the state of the predominant part of those who call themselves the God’s people. There are many among us who see that their religious life is, actually, only an empty and lifeless form, and that the earthly sweetness of sin governs their beings, but, nevertheless, they show no readiness to humble their hearts in a sincere confession and repentance. A man, who disguises into a false religiousness in this way, might cheat someone with that, but the One who sees everything says: “I know your works”.

»Christ's act in cursing the tree which His own power had created stands as a warning to all churches and to all Christians. No one can live the law of God without ministering to others. But there are many who do not live out Christ's merciful, unselfish life. Some who think themselves excellent Christians do not understand what constitutes service for God. They plan and study to please themselves. They act only in reference to self. Time is of value to them only as they can gather for themselves. In all the affairs of life this is their object. Not for others but for themselves do they minister. God created them to live in a world where unselfish service must be performed. He designed them to help their fellow men in every possible way. But self is so large that they cannot see anything else. They are not in touch with humanity. Those who thus live for self are like the fig tree, which made every pretension but was fruitless. They observe the forms of worship, but without repentance or faith. In profession they honor the law of God, but obedience is lacking. They say, but do not. In the sentence pronounced on the fig tree Christ demonstrates how hateful in His eyes is this vain pretense. He declares that the open sinner is less guilty than is he who professes to serve God, but who bears no fruit to His glory.« (DA 584)

Big is the God's anger upon us today, and terrible the judgements, which soon will fall upon every one who misses to answer the last calls for mercy. The mighty light of the truth, which the Adventists of the Seventh day have received in order to forward it to all the inabitants of the earth, stands in those last days like a sword of judgement upon them, because the light is being trampled down and despised, while many a son and daughter of God die without a chance to get to know the One who gave His life for them.

»A refusal to heed the invitation of mercy that God was now offering would bring upon the impenitent nation the judgments that had befallen the northern kingdom of Israel over a century before. The message to them now was: "If ye will not hearken to Me, to walk in My law, which I have set before you, to hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I sent unto you, both rising up early, and sending them, but ye have not hearkened; then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth." Jeremiah 26:4-6.

Those who stood in the temple court listening to Jeremiah's discourse understood clearly this reference to Shiloh, and to the time in the days of Eli when the Philistines had overcome Israel and carried away the ark of the testament.

The sin of Eli had consisted in passing lightly over the iniquity of his sons in sacred office, and over the evils prevailing throughout the land. His neglect to correct these evils had brought upon Israel a fearful calamity. His sons had fallen in battle, Eli himself had lost his life, the ark of God had been taken from the land of Israel, thirty thousand of the people had been slain--and all because sin had been allowed to flourish unrebuked and unchecked. Israel had vainly thought that, notwithstanding their sinful practices, the presence of the ark would ensure them victory over the Philistines. In like manner, during the days of Jeremiah, the inhabitants of Judah were prone to believe that a strict observance of the divinely appointed services of the temple would preserve them from a just punishment for their wicked course.

What a lesson is this to men holding positions of responsibility today in the church of God! What a solemn warning to deal faithfully with wrongs that bring dishonour to the cause of truth! Let none who claim to be the depositaries of God's law flatter themselves that the regard they may outwardly show toward the commandments will preserve them from the exercise of divine justice. Let none refuse to be reproved for evil, nor charge the servants of God with being too zealous in endeavouring to cleanse the camp from evil-doing. A sin-hating God calls upon those who claim to keep His law to depart from all iniquity. A neglect to repent and to render willing obedience will bring upon men and women today as serious consequences as came upon ancient Israel. There is a limit beyond which the judgments of Jehovah can no longer be delayed. The desolation of Jerusalem in the days of Jeremiah is a solemn warning to modern Israel, that the counsels and admonitions given them through chosen instrumentalities cannot be disregarded with impunity.« (PK 416 – 417)

»UNLESS YOU, PEOPLE, SEE SIGNS AND WONDERS«

During the last few days (this part of the testimony was written on 22nd July), when the Holy Spirit gave me the review of the past events and of those, which will happen in the nearest future, and when it was pointed out to me to a great need to show to the God's people – first of all to those, who are from this area – to show them once more all the seriousness of that what will mark and seal in a special way the history of the Adventists of the Seventh day, who is the last people, raised by God.

As I already have predicted by the God's word and written down in the testimony, which I published in March this year under the title »An Appeal to the Church«, God Himself will soon approove of this work and show that everything that had been happening during the work of this reforming movement was a reflection of His, and only His will.

»In the words spoken to the woman at the well, good seed had been sown, and how quickly the harvest was received. The Samaritans came and heard Jesus, and believed on Him.

The Pharisees despised the simplicity of Jesus. They ignored His miracles, and demanded a sign that He was the Son of God. But the Samaritans asked no sign, and Jesus performed no miracles among them, save in revealing the secrets of her life to the woman at the well. Yet many received Him. In their new joy they said to the woman, "Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world."«

»The news of Christ's return to Cana soon spread throughout Galilee, bringing hope to the suffering and distressed. In Capernaum the tidings attracted the attention of a Jewish nobleman who was an officer in the king's service. A son of the officer was suffering from what seemed to be an incurable disease. Physicians had given him up to die; but when the father heard of Jesus, he determined to seek help from Him.

On reaching Cana he found a throng surrounding Jesus. With an anxious heart he pressed through to the Saviour's presence. His faith faltered when he saw only a plainly dressed man, dusty and worn with travel. He doubted that this Person could do what he had come to ask of Him; yet he secured an interview with Jesus, told his errand, and besought the Saviour to accompany him to his home. But already his sorrow was known to Jesus. Before the officer had left his home, the Saviour had beheld his affliction.

But He knew also that the father had, in his own mind, made conditions concerning his belief in Jesus. Unless his petition should be granted, he would not receive Him as the Messiah. While the officer waited in an agony of suspense, Jesus said, "Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe."( John 4, 48 )

Notwithstanding all the evidence that Jesus was the Christ, the petitioner had determined to make his belief in Him conditional on the granting of his own request. The Saviour contrasted this questioning unbelief with the simple faith of the Samaritans, who asked for no miracle or sign. His word, the ever-present evidence of His divinity, had a convincing power that reached their hearts. Christ was pained that His own people, to whom the Sacred Oracles had been committed, should fail to hear the voice of God speaking to them in His Son.« (DA. 192.193.196 -198)

It is stated in the Holy Scriptures that before and above everything there is - the Word. »In the biginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.« (John 1, 1.14.) Once, when He spoke to many of His vain and false followers, who gathered around Him, He spoke of Himself as of the bread of life, and at the end of the His preach He said: »It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are Spirit, and they are Life.« (John 6, 63)  Jesus confirmed this rule during all His service on this earth. »It was written« and »That is what the Lord says« He used to say. When Satan asked Christ at the end of the temptation in the desert to make a miracle or give a sign so as to confirm His messianic role, Jesus replied: »... Away with me, Satan! For it is written...« and »then the devil left him...« (Matthew 4, 10.11) The Word of God was the only law of His life and the strongest confirmation of His mission.

»And there was much murmuring among the people concerning Him. Some said, "He is good"; others said, "No, on the contrary, He deceives the people." However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews. Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught. I And the Jews marveled, saying, "How does this Man know letters, having never studied?" Jesus answered them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me. If anyone wants to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority. He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.« (John 7, 12 – 18)

»On the first day of His presence at the feast, the rulers had come to Him, demanding by what authority He taught. They wished to divert attention from Him to the question of His right to teach, and thus to their own importance and authority.

"My teaching is not Mine," said Jesus, "but His that sent Me. If any man willeth to do His will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it be of God, or whether I speak from Myself." John 7:16, 17, R. V. The question of these cavilers Jesus met, not by answering the cavil, but by opening up truth vital to the salvation of the soul. The perception and appreciation of truth, He said, depends less upon the mind than upon the heart. Truth must be received into the soul; it claims the homage of the will. If truth could be submitted to the reason alone, pride would be no hindrance in the way of its reception. But it is to be received through the work of grace in the heart; and its reception depends upon the renunciation of every sin that the Spirit of God reveals. Man's advantages for obtaining a knowledge of the truth, however great these may be, will prove of no benefit to him unless the heart is open to receive the truth, and there is a conscientious surrender of every habit and practice that is opposed to its principles. To those who thus yield themselves to God, having an honest desire to know and to do His will, the truth is revealed as the power of God for their salvation. These will be able to distinguish between him who speaks for God, and him who speaks merely from himself. The Pharisees had not put their will on the side of God's will. They were not seeking to know the truth, but to find some excuse for evading it; Christ showed that this was why they did not understand His teaching. 

He now gave a test by which the true teacher might be distinguished from the deceiver: "He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of Him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him." John 7:18, R. V. He that seeketh his own glory is speaking only from himself. The spirit of self-seeking betrays its origin. But Christ was seeking the glory of God. He spoke the words of God. This was the evidence of His authority as a teacher of the truth.« (DA 455. 456.)

Many have told me: “If really God have raised you, why does not He treat you like the apostles? Do you really believe that by spreading those writings you will cause the awakening? Any way, we have the Holy Bible and Ellen White and we need no more. »We are rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing«, they say, and the Lord answers to them: »You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.« »My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.« (Matthew 22,29; Hosea 4, 6) In every movement that have come from God the basis was His Word, and as such, it was only reconfirmed later »through the accomapnying signs« (Mark 16, 20). So will be today too. It is God's will that His people, who says they know everything, they are rich and they do not need anything, that they will be tested with the Word, but it is true that it will be confirmed with signs too. But not the biggest miracle would help those who can not recognise the word of the God's inspiration, as has said the Lord: »If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.« (Luke 16, 31)

The Spirit of prophecy says: »There is to be in the churches a wonderful manifestation of the power of God, but it will not move upon those who have not humbled themselves before the Lord, and opened the door of the heart by confession and repentance. In the manifestation of that power which lightens the earth with the glory of God, they will see only something which in their blindness they think dangerous, something which will arouse their fears, and they will brace themselves to resist it. Because the Lord does not work according to their ideas and expectations, they will oppose the work. "Why," they say, "should not we know the Spirit of God, when we have been in the work so many years?"« »For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.« (RH Extra 23. dec. 1890; Isaiah 55, 8.9.)

In one of my earlier testimoines I have said that the exit of the Israel people from Egypt is a symbol of the exit of the God’s people from the contemporary world order and that the spiritual Israel will be led on his way to the heavenly Canaan in the same way as the physical Israel was led by the Spirit of prophecy. This means that in this last part there will be no more “kingly power” or any other kind of human system of governing, but the God Himself will, like once before, lead His people by the revelations of His Spirit. When the Israel, in imitation of the earthly nations with which they often have tied with the ties of ungodliness, dared to ask for the form of ruling that was in general use at the time, the Lord clearly expressed His disapproval: »I gave you a king in My anger, and took him away in My wrath.« ( Hosea 13, 11). As I have already published, the General Conference of the Adventists of the Seventh day, which up till recently had a legitimate right to govern the Church, had been self-willed and made discrepancies from the clearly expressed God's commandments, so that it was »spit out« as it was forseen in the message of Laodicea. Since these days up till His second arrival the right to govern will belong only to our Lord, Jesus Christ, who will express His will through the consecrated human tools, whose service and authority will be confirmed in front of all the people. The revelations of the God's power and glory, which had been shown at that time, are also a pre-picture of this what will happen today.

The work of the reform, which had happened during the time of the Apostolic church, represents another type of the event, which soon will be happening among the Adventist people, and this is what will make this last movement a unique event in the history of the church and humankind. What is important to know and what I must stress is that the beginning of manifesting the God's will in signs and miracles, by which this work will be undoubtedly confirmed, at the same time it will be the beginning of pouring of His judgements and punishments on those, who openly opposed and refused, although they had all necessary testimonies that it was of the divine origin.

»Then came upon me the God's word saying: son of a man, thus the Lord of the Lord says about the land of Israel: the end, the end comes to the four sides of the country. Here comes your end, and I shall let my anger upon you, and I shall judge you by your ways and I shall turn against you all your adders. And my eye shall not have pity on you, nor I shall have mercy on you, but i shall turn your ways against you and your adders will be in the midst of you, and you shall realise that I am the God.

»Again the God's word came upon me, saying: son of a man, what is that talk in your place about the country of Israel that you say: the days are passing by and there is nothing of a phantom? Therefore you tell them thus speaks the Lord of the Lord: I shall cancel that talk and I shall not tell it in Israel; therefore you tell them: the days are close and the word of every phantom. For there will neither be in the home of Israel a useless phantom nor whichcraft that flatters. For I, the God, shall speak, and what I say will be; there will be no delay, but during your time, the home rebellious, I shall say the word and I shall do it, says the Lord of the Lord.

»He (Jesus Christ) told to His listeners that every sin and blasphemy can be forgiven if they were done in ignorance. In their big blindness, people can utter words that represent an insult or shame for the Son of Man, but still not to step over the limits of mercy. But when the God's Spirit and His power lie on His messengers, they are in a holy place. Those who ignore the testimony of the God's Spirit, ascribing it to the spirit of devil, put themselves in a position where God can not reach to their souls any more, since He has not provided any such a mediator, who might correct the misbelieves, which such people might have...

Speaking against Christ, ascribing His work to Satan's power and calling the emanation of God's Spirit – fanatism – it is not only blasphemy, but a spirit which makes people to put themselves by such statements into a position of stubborn opposition, so that they do not see the spiritual light any more...

They think that they govern themselves by the common sense, but they really follow another leader. They put themselves under control of a power that they are even not aware of. In that way they resist the Spirit Almighty, who alone could lead them, enlighten and save. They carry on on the path of sin, for which there is no forgiveness neither in this nor in the future life; and not only because they used up the God's mercy with the degree of their misdeed, but also because their pride and stubbornness made them condemn the voice of the God's Spirit and get into a position where He can not convince them about their delusion. They are not ready to subdue their stubborn will to the Holy Spirit.

In our days people bring themselves into a position, which makes them incapable of fulfilling the conditions of repentment and conversion, therefore they can not find mercy and forgiveness. The blasphemy on the Holy Spirit does not lay in a sudden and unexpectable word or gesture, but in constant and decisive opposition to the truth and given evidence. (MS 30, 1890).

I appeal to every reader of these lines, but first of all to those, to whom are directed the words of this warning, to accept it and hold in their hearts in order to feel good. I pray that we, who call ourselves the God's people, open the doors of our hearts to our Saviour, who had been crucified for our sins, and not to be His only by our name, but by the cognition too; because the »Eternal life is to know Him« (John, 17, 3). Let us get to know Him, for it is a cry of His Paternal heart.

»O JERUSALEM, JERUSALEM...«

Chronics about the events, which have marked in a special way the history of the God's chosen people, undoubtedly shows that during all the times only a small number of those really belonged to Him and lived in a unity with Him. The prophet Isaiah said: »Unless the Lord of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been like Gomorrah.« (Isaiah 1, 9) Such a state of people had its cause in frequent rebellion of those, who should have stood in the first line like the God’s representatives, and show an example of real religiousness. To the contrary, they badly influenced with their lack of faith and backsliding the people, who imitated them and often had been worse than the non-religious and idolatric people who surrounded them. It was said about Manasseh who:  »...seduced Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to do more evel than the nations whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.« (2. Chronicles 33, 9)

So it was sometimes ago, but so it is today too. In the message to the Laodicean church the Lord clearly says that among us there is terrible rebellion and that we are the worse people in the world because we did not let the great light to revive our hearts, and that because of that we are the worst people in the world in His eyes. The message is as follows: »I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot.« When a man does not allow the truth, which he accepted with his mind, or even with his experience, to exert its consacreted influence into him with its divine action, he undoubtedly must fall under the even stronger domination of the demonic powers. This instruction is clearly written in the Holy Bible. »When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, 'I will return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.« (Matthew 12, 43 – 45)

In the history of the Old Testament, as well as in the New, there are numerous examples of the people who, although lighted with great light and honoured with high positions and privileges, refused to subdue to the God's commandments and in that way they became the tools of Satan to stop the activity of those, who devoted themselves with all their heart and soul to the prosperity of the God's work.

The story of the Izrael's king Saul, who in his rebellion went so far that he did not even hide his criminal intention to try to kill a man who was »close to God's heart« - that is only one of many such stories. The same was going on during the time of the public service of Jesus. »The Pharisees built the tombs of the prophets, and adorned their sepulchers, and said one to another, If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have united with them in shedding the blood of God's servants. At the same time they were planning to take the life of His Son. This should be a lesson to us. It should open our eyes to the power of Satan to deceive the mind that turns from the light of truth. Many follow in the track of the Pharisees. They revere those who have died for their faith. They wonder at the blindness of the Jews in rejecting Christ. Had we lived in His day, they declare, we would gladly have received His teaching; we would never have been partakers in the guilt of those who rejected the Saviour. But when obedience to God requires self-denial and humiliation, these very persons stifle their convictions, and refuse obedience. Thus they manifest the same spirit as did the Pharisees whom Christ condemned.

Little did the Jews realize the terrible responsibility involved in rejecting Christ. From the time when the first innocent blood was shed, when righteous Abel fell by the hand of Cain, the same history had been repeated, with increasing guilt. In every age prophets had lifted up their voices against the sins of kings, rulers, and people, speaking the words which God gave them, and obeying His will at the peril of their lives. From generation to generation there had been heaping up a terrible punishment for the rejecters of light and truth. This the enemies of Christ were now drawing down upon their own heads. The sin of the priests and rulers was greater than that of any preceding generation. By their rejection of the Saviour, they were making themselves responsible for the blood of all the righteous men slain from Abel to Christ. They were about to fill to overflowing their cup of iniquity. And soon it was to be poured upon their heads in retributive justice. Of this, Jesus warned them: "That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation."

With hand uplifted to heaven, and a divine light enshrouding His person, Christ spoke as a judge to those before Him. His voice, that had so often been heard in gentleness and entreaty, was now heard in rebuke and condemnation. The listeners shuddered. Never was the impression made by His words and His look to be effaced. 

Christ's indignation was directed against the hypocrisy, the gross sins, by which men were destroying their own souls, deceiving the people and dishonoring God. In the specious deceptive reasoning of the priests and rulers He discerned the working of satanic agencies.« (DA 619-620)

During my work on the awakening and reformation of the Adventist people up till today, God has revealed to me the intentions of  the individual members of the leadership of the local Union, as well as the plans of a group of people from the General Conference of the Christian Adventist Church. Not long after the rejection of testimonies, which I published in August 2001 and gave to the leaders of the South-East Europian Union, in a night vision a meeting of several of those leaders was shown to me. After several futile attempts, mainly by psychological methods, to stop this work, at the meeting a decision had been taken to use the same methods that in the previous times killed the many.

In the vision, that I saw in the night between 25th and 26th February 2002, the two of the men from the meeting were shown to me. While I watched them coming out of the room, where the meeting had been held, the Holy Spirit had come upon me and in an inspiration showed to me the decision that had been taken at the occasion. Several months prior to that, the Lord had shown to me that such time will soon come and, according to that, He drew me into such conditions, where He protected me from the reach of all those, who tried by all means to find out the exact place of my abode. In many occasions it was shown to me that God took care and protected me, so that I could have with dignity and peacfully done the service He had called me to do.

Because of the needs of my work, I have noted down my e-mail address and the number of my mobile-phone in my writings, so that they were the only connection between me and the others, with whom I had relations according to my task. That was the way they tried to reach me. In the night vision, which I had received on 8th March 2002, two men were shown to me, seated with earphones on their heads in front of a big screen with instruments and followed with their eyes the arrow of an instrument, which spies and finds locations. Anxiety and a wish to find out the data as soon as possilbe was seen in their behaviour.

In the next night announcement, which I received on 5th June 2002, an attempt of a mean and criminal intention was shown to me. It was going to happen very soon after God Himself would put a seal on His work, as He had been doing in the old times. In the symbolic picture I found myself on a trail of an old lorry and I threw out the rubbish, which was there, with decisive movements of a broom in my hands. After a while the lorry-driver appeared – a middle-aged man – who commanded to me with anger and great authority to stop the work, which I resolutly refused to obey. Outraged, he left the scene, but soon he came back with a big dagger in his hand. When he raised his hand in order to hit the knife, I realised that I was in a completely helpless position. In the moment the lethal weapon flew towards me – the vision ceased.

In another vision, that followed the previous one, like an invisible watcher I was present to the investigation, led by several people. One of the men present there said that the man, who was hired for that doing, never missed his target before and that I stayed unharmed only by a miracle. After that I was present at a conversation of two policemen with a wittness of the event, who said, among others, those words: »But faith, faith saved him«. 

With this picture, which is symbolic in a greater part, God showed that He was going to let such an event happen in a certain moment in order to let the light of the truth reach to many and the meanness of those, who do evil from a shaddow, would get discovered. The old lorry, on which I stood, represents the Church as it looks like now, and the immense quantity of rubbish, which covered the trail – the sins and rebellion which governs there. The driver, from whose lorry I had been cleaning the rubbish, represents a big part of the backslidden leadreship, who will command to carry the crime in the moment when it would be clear that God called ordinary people for the reform, which was shown in a simbol as an action of cleaning the garbage.

The contents of those revelations I reveal for the benefit of everybody, who really wants to serve God without seeking the leadership of those, who do not serve Him with all their heart and soul. The Lord says: »Cursed is the man who thrusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the Lord«, because »there is a way which seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death«. (Jeremiah 17,5; Proverbs 14,12)

»AND IN THE DAYS OF THESE KINGS THE GOD OF HEAVEN WILL

SET UP A KINGDOM...«

On the 1 October 2002 it was shown to me that, in spite of the attept of the powers of darkness to stop the progress of the God's cause, it will continue to spread around with a great speed right to the day when Christ will appear in His heavenly glory.

In a night vision, which represented the review of the whole work, I was in a car, which had been driven by a man, whose profession was a stone-cutter. During the drive I saw in front of us only one other car, which seemed to have driven to the same place. When I drove my attention to that vehicle, I became aware that we must pass by it if we wanted to complete our task. But, in spite of my strong wish to pass by the car as soon as possible, we had no success with that. 

In a moment he speeded up and the distance between us got bigger. Exactly in the moment when the situation looked hopeless, the »Stone-cutter« powerfully speeded up, and with a decisive, confident move, with a great speed, that escalated every moment, passed by the vehicle, which was in front of us. When I turned around, I saw that the other car swayed from the road and finished its voyage for ever. In the meantime, the speed with which we moved straight towards our aim was so big, that we started taking off of the road and moving towards the sky, that was lit with great light.

In the morning, when I prayed for the explanation of this dream, it was put to my knowledge that the car I had been driven in represented the God's »remnant« of the latter time. The other car represented the Church of all Adventists of the Seventh Day, who will, together with a great number of the leading brothers, refuse all the calls, that God sends them today, and so sway from the only real way for the heavenly Canaan. The »Stone-cutter«, who sat at the driving wheel of the car in which I was driven, was an image of the One, who carved on the stone tablets His holy commandments three thousand and five hundred years ago.

With this vision the Lord has shown to me once again that His work in this world will soon be finished, and that everyone, who hesitates to use this short time of mercy that is left to us – will be lost forever. So, »today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts...«   

   

»God has always given men warning of coming judgments. Those who had faith in His message for their time, and who acted out their faith, in obedience to His commandments, escaped the judgments that fell upon the disobedient and unbelieving.

The word came to Noah, "Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before Me." Noah obeyed and was saved. The message came to Lot, "Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city." Gen. 7:1; 19:14. Lot placed himself under the guardianship of the heavenly messengers, and was saved. So Christ's disciples were given warning of the destruction of Jerusalem. Those who watched for the sign of the coming ruin, and fled from the city, escaped the destruction. So now we are given warning of Christ's second coming and of the destruction to fall upon the world. Those who heed the warning will be saved.«  (9T 97; DA 634.)
