Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 234 of 374 Pattern of Goodness, August 13 So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good?”— Matthew 19:17 The great controversy between the Prince of light and the prince of darkness has not abated one jot or tittle of its fierceness as time has gone on. The stern conflict between light and darkness, between error and truth, is deepening in its intensity. The synagogue of Satan is intensely active, and the deceiving power of the enemy is working in the most subtle way in this age. Every human mind that is not surrende...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 233 of 374 Patient Sufferer, August 12 Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.— Isaiah 53:4 Above the throne is revealed the cross; and like a panoramic view appear the scenes of Adam’s temptation and fall, and the successive steps in the great plan of redemption. The Saviour’s lowly birth; His early life of simplicity and obedience; His baptism in Jordan; the fast and temptation in the wilderness; His public ministry, unfolding to humans heaven’s most precious blessings; the days crowded with...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 232 of 374 Dearly Beloved, August 11 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love.— Colossians 1:13 I have been shown the great love and condescension of God in giving His Son to die that humanity might find pardon and live. I was shown Adam and Eve, who were privileged to behold the beauty and loveliness of the Garden of Eden and were permitted to eat of all the trees in the garden except one. But the serpent tempted Eve, and she tempted her husband, and they both ate ...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 231 of 374 Antitype of the Wave Sheaf, August 10 But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ’s at His coming.— 1 Corinthians 15:23 In the summer of 1844, midway between the time when it had been first thought that the 2300 days would end, and the autumn of the same year, to which it was afterward found that they extended, the message was proclaimed in the very words of Scripture: “Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!” That which led to this movement was the discovery that...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 230 of 374 Commander of Heaven, August 9 But made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.— Philippians 2:7 Christ was the only sinless one who ever dwelt on earth; yet for nearly thirty years He lived among the wicked inhabitants of Nazareth. This fact is a rebuke to those who think themselves dependent upon place, fortune, or prosperity, in order to live a blameless life. Temptation, poverty, adversity, is the very discipline needed to develop purity and firmness. Jesus...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 229 of 374 King in His Beauty, August 8 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him.— Revelation 1:7 Oh, how many who have not sought their souls’ salvation will soon make the bitter lamentation: “The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved”! We are living in the closing scenes of this earth’s history. Prophecy is fast fulfilling. The hours of probation are fast passing. We have no time—not a moment—to lose. Let us not be found...

Jesus, Name Above All Names — Day 228 of 374 Heir, August 7 “This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.”— Matthew 21:38 In the parable of the vineyard Jesus brought before the Jews their real condition.
