By Their Fruits, January 8
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matthew 7:20.
When those who are in God’s service resort to accusation, they
are adopting Satan’s principles to cast out Satan. It never will work.
Satan will work. He is working upon human minds by his crooked
principles. These will be adopted and acted upon by those who claim
to be loyal and true to God’s government. How shall we know that
they are untrue, disloyal? “By their fruits ye shall know them.”
The Lord saw the use that Satan was making of his power, and
He set before him truth in contrast with falsehood. Time and again
during the controversy Satan was ready to be convinced, ready to
admit that he was wrong. But those he had deceived were ready to
accuse him of leaving them. What could he do—submit to God, or
continue in a course of deception? He chose to deny truth, to take
refuge in misstatements and fraud. The Lord allowed Satan to go on
and demonstrate his principles.
God did establish Himself, and He carried the worlds unfallen
and the heavenly universe with Him, but at a terrible cost. His only
begotten Son was given up as Satan’s victim. The Lord Jesus Christ
revealed a character entirely opposite to that of Satan. As the high
priest laid off his gorgeous, pontifical robes, and officiated in the
white linen dress of a common priest, so Christ emptied Himself and
took the form of a servant and offered sacrifice, Himself the priest,
Himself the victim.
By causing the death of the Sovereign of heaven, Satan defeated
his own purposes. The death of the Son of God made the death of
Satan unavoidable. Satan was allowed to go on until his admin-
istration was laid open before the worlds unfallen and before the
heavenly universe. By shedding the blood of the Son of God, he
uprooted himself [from sympathy], and was seen by all to be a liar,
a thief, and a murderer.
God sees that the same course of action is being pursued the
world over. Men and women come to the place where the road di-
verges: it is either right or wrong. Thousands upon thousands clothe
themselves in what they suppose to be an impenetrable disguise, and
choose the wrong.... God does not force anyone. He leaves all free
to choose. But He says, “By their fruits ye shall know them.” The
Lord will not write as wise those who cannot distinguish between a
tree that bears thorn berries and a tree that bears olives.—Manuscript
57, 1896 (Manuscript Releases 18:361-363)
