Righteousness by Faith

Still a Present Truth Message

Christ and His Right­eous­ness (Christ Our Righteousness).pdf

Sev­eral have writ­ten to me, inquir­ing if the mes­sage of jus­ti­fi­ca­tion by faith is the third angel’s mes­sage, and I have answered, “It is the third angel’s mes­sage in verity.”–1SM 372 (1890).  {LDE 199.4}
The Lord in His great mercy sent a most pre­cious mes­sage to His peo­ple through Elders [E.J.] Wag­goner and [A. T.] Jones. This mes­sage was to bring more promi­nently before the world the uplifted Sav­iour, the sac­ri­fice for the sins of the whole world. It pre­sented jus­ti­fi­ca­tion through faith in the Surety; it invited the peo­ple to receive the right­eous­ness of Christ, which is made man­i­fest in obe­di­ence to all the com­mand­ments of God.  {LDE 200.1}
Many had lost sight of Jesus. They needed to have their eyes directed to His divine per­son, His mer­its, and His change­less love for the human fam­ily. All power is given into His hands, that He may dis­pense rich gifts unto men, impart­ing the price­less gift of His own right­eous­ness to the help­less human agent. This is the mes­sage that God com­manded to be given to the world. It is the third angel’s mes­sage, which is to be pro­claimed with a loud voice, and attended with the out­pour­ing of His Spirit in a large measure.–TM 91, 92 (1895).  {LDE 200.2}
The mes­sage of Christ’s right­eous­ness is to sound from one end of the earth to the other to pre­pare the way of the Lord. This is the glory of God, which closes the work of the third angel.–6T 19 (1900).  {LDE 200.3}
The last mes­sage of mercy to be given to the world is a rev­e­la­tion of His char­ac­ter of love. The chil­dren of God are to man­i­fest His glory. In their own life and char­ac­ter they are to reveal what the grace of God has done for them.–COL 415, 416 (1900).  {LDE 200.4}
