Devotional Meeting—September 17

EGW

“The Lord requires every man to be at his post of duty doing the work that requires to be done. The spirit that brought about the first great rebellion in heaven is at work today. Our watchmen must be wide awake to give the trumpet a certain sound.AUCR October 1, 1906, par. 1

“None are too high to fall. Sin originated with Satan, who was next to Christ. Lucifer became the destroyer of those whom heaven had committed to his guardianship. Satan has a church in our world today. In his church are all the disaffected ones and the disloyal. All who harbor pride, ambition, vain-glory, or selfishness, will be found wanting when weighed in the balance of the Lord. We cannot of ourselves perfect a true moral character, but we can accept the righteousness of Christ. ‘He that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as He walked.’”AUCR October 1, 1906, par. 2
