Flee The Cities - Sunday Law News Report

Sunday Law News Report - Flee the Cities

http://AdventBible.com - Inside this edition of the Sunday Law News Report, we'll see why we should leave the cities and flee to the country. When is it time to leave the cities? This question is on the lips of many of God's people, and it is an important one to consider and pray about.

Is it time to leave for the countryside now? Or can we just wait and see what happens?
The Spirit of Prophecy counsels us:

"As God's commandment keeping people, we must leave the cities. As did Enoch, we must work in the cities but not dwell in them." Evangelism, pp. 78, 79. (1899) {CL 30.4}

Should we just wait until the Sunday law is enforced in America to leave the cities? No, we are told by inspiration that the cities should be reached from OUTSIDE them, not by God's people living IN them.

The followers of Christ inside Jerusalem looked for a sign to leave the city, but they could not leave due to the Roman army siege. Then one day, for no apparent reason, the Roman armies retreated, giving the Christians an opportunity to leave, which they did. But this withdrawal gave the Jews a false sense of security and an atmosphere of "peace and safety."

Sadly, the Jews suffered from a false sense of security. Today, we're doing exactly the same thing. We look around us and see apparent safety and prosperity, and figure everything is going to be alright.

"The time is not far distant, when, like the early disciples, we shall be forced to seek a refuge in desolate and solitary places. As the siege of Jerusalem by the Roman armies was the signal for flight to the Judean Christians, so the assumption of power on the
part of our nation in the decree enforcing the papal sabbath will be a warning to us. It will then be time to leave the large cities, preparatory to leaving the smaller ones for retired homes in secluded places among the mountains." 5T 464-465

http://AdventMessage.com - Today's Advent message features direct quotes from the Book Country Living, by E.G White.

During a vision of the night, I stood on an eminence, from which I could see houses shaken like a reed in the wind. Buildings, great and small, were falling to the ground.

Pleasure resorts, theaters, hotels, and the homes of the wealthy were shaken and shattered. Many lives were blotted out of existence, and the air was filled with the shrieks of the injured and the terrified.

The destroying angels of God were at work. One touch, and buildings so thoroughly constructed that men regarded them as secure against every danger, quickly became heaps of rubbish.

The time is near when the large cities will be visited by the judgments of God. In a little while, these cities will be terribly shaken. No matter how large or how strong their buildings, no matter how many safeguards against fire may have been provided, let God touch these buildings, and in a few minutes or a few hours they are in ruins.

I see the necessity of making haste to get all things ready for the crisis. "Out of the cities; out of the cities!''--this is the message the Lord has been giving me.

We must make wise plans to warn the cities, and at the same time live where we can shield our children and ourselves from the contaminating and demoralizing influences so prevalent in these places.
