Chap. 244 Preparing to Meet Jesus

"And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may
have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. 1 John 2:28.
Only by knowing God here can we prepare to meet Him at His coming.... In
His lessons and His mighty works Christ is a perfect revelation of God. This Christ
declares through the inspired evangelist. “No man hath seen God at any time,” He
says; “the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared
him” (John 1:18). “No man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any
man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.”
These words show the importance of studying Christ’s character. Only by knowing
Christ can we know God.
As our representative, Christ stands on the highest possible ground. When He
came to the world as God’s messenger, He held the salvation of God in His hand.
All mankind was delivered to Him, for in Him was the fullness of the Godhead....
So fully did Christ reveal the Father that the messengers sent by the Pharisees to
take Him were charmed by His presence.... As they beheld the soft light of the
glory of God that enshrouded His person, as they heard the gracious words that fell
from His lips, they loved Him. And when ... they were asked by the Pharisees,
“Why have ye not brought him?” they answered, “Never man spake like this man”
(John 7:45, 46).
As we behold Christ we shall be changed into His image and made fit to meet
Him at His coming. Now is the time to prepare for the coming of our Lord.
Readiness to meet Him cannot be attained in a moment’s time. Preparatory to
that solemn scene there must be vigilant waiting combined with earnest work. The
union of these two makes us complete in Christ. The active and devotional must
be combined as were the human and divine in Christ. So God’s children glorify
Him. Amid the busy scenes of life their voices will be heard speaking words of
encouragement, hope, and faith. The will and the affections will be consecrated to
Christ. Thus they prepare to meet their Lord; and when He comes, they will say,
with joy: “This is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us.”
p. 250

Chap. 243-The Investigative Judgment

"Some men’s sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men
they follow after. 1 Timothy 5:24.
The work of the investigative judgment and the blotting out of sins is to be
accomplished before the second advent of the Lord. Since the dead are to be judged
out of the things written in the books, it is impossible that the sins of men should
be blotted out until after the judgment at which their cases are to be investigated....
When the investigative judgment closes, Christ will come, and His reward will be
with Him to give to every man as his work shall be.
All are to be judged according to the things written in the books, and to be
rewarded as their works have been. This judgment does not take place at death.
In the typical service the high priest, having made the atonement for Israel, came
forth and blessed the congregation. So Christ, at the close of His work as mediator,
will appear, “without sin unto salvation,” to bless His waiting people with eternal
life. As the priest, in removing the sins from the sanctuary, confessed them upon the
head of the scapegoat, so Christ will place all these sins upon Satan, the originator
and instigator of sin. The scapegoat, bearing the sins of Israel, was sent away “unto
a land not inhabited;” so Satan, bearing the guilt of all the sins which he has caused
God’s people to commit, will be for a thousand years confined to the earth, which
will then be desolate, without inhabitant, and he will at last suffer the full penalty of
sin in the fires that shall destroy all the wicked.
A few, yes, only a few, of the vast number who people the earth will be saved
unto life eternal, while the masses who have not perfected their souls in obeying the
truth will be appointed to the second death.
While the sins of penitent believers are being removed from the sanctuary, there
is to be a special work of purification, of putting away of sin, among God’s people
upon earth."

Chap. 247 In Heavenly Places

Chap. 241 - No Place for Discouragement
Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of
the inheritance of the saints in light: who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son. Colossians
1:12, 13.
How full is this language! If you attempted to measure it, you would find that
in these words are measureless depths of meaning. We are now being fitted up to
dwell in the mansions which Christ has gone to prepare for those who love Him.
“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness.” If this is true, what
excuse then have we for talking discouragement and unbelief and doubt—drawing
darkness around us as a mantle? ...
If I should look at the dark clouds—the troubles and perplexities that come to
me in my work—I should have time to do nothing else. But I know that there is
light and glory beyond the clouds. By faith I reach through the darkness to the
glory. At times I am called to pass through financial perplexities. But I do not
worry about money. God takes care of my affairs. I do all that I can, and when the
Lord sees that it is best for me to have money, He sends it to me.
The more you talk faith, the more faith you will have. The more you dwell
upon discouragement, talking to others about your trials and enlarging upon them,
to enlist the sympathy which you crave, the more discouragements and trials you
will have. Why mourn over that which you cannot avoid? ...
We are preparing for promotion from the school in this world, in which we
are forming characters for the future, immortal life, to the higher grade, the school
of heaven. But man is not to depend upon his own finite strength to wrestle with
difficulty. In faith he is to look to God, believing that all the resources of heaven
are at his command to help him overcome. Thousands upon thousands and ten
thousand times ten thousand of heavenly angels are ministering unto those who
shall be heirs of salvation.
God is inviting us to close the windows of the soul earthward and open them
heavenward, that He may flood our hearts with the glory which is shining across
the threshold of heaven.

Chia Seed — The Ancient Food of the Future
By: William Anderson

Diet is the Most Important Medicine

In the last twenty five years, there has been a resurrection in the definition of medicine, a resurrection that amplifies the significance of our eating habits and our lifestyle. Medicine is not only defined as a treatment for illness and disease, it is now understood to be for the prevention of illness and disease. That would mean, for example, laughter is a medicine because research found it to boost the immune system. Exercise is good medicine for its cardiovascular stimulation, muscle toning and flexibility and expelling toxins and for giving you a feeling of well-being, all immune boosters. To express a positive attitude towards life is not only good medicine for you, it is good medicine for those in contact with you. But, the most important medicine, especially for the prevention of illness and disease, is our diet. It only needs our cooperation in supplying proper hydration and the needed nutrients to effectively maintain a state of well-being.

Two Thirds of All Deaths in the United States are Diet Related

Research has revealed that more than two thirds of all deaths in the United States are diet related. More than 50% of all deaths are caused from coronary occlusion, blockage of the blood flow to the heart and/or the brain. These are all preventable deaths according to the Journal of American Medical Association which published in 1961 that, “All coronary occlusion can be eliminated by 97% through a vegetarian diet.” Fourteen hundred American’s are dying of cancer every day. In the prestigious Advances in Cancer Research, they concluded, “At present, we have overwhelming evidence… (that) none of the risk factors for cancer is… more significant than diet and nutrition.”

A Super Food

Because the question of what might be the optimum diet can, at times, be emotionally charged for many people, having had a significant emotional commitment in believing they know what’s best, I would like to suspend the issues of diet and introduce you to a “super” food that all would agree on. It is known as the Chia Seed. Once valued so much that it was used as currency, this unique little seed has exceptional nutritive and structural benefits.

Chia is familiar to most of us as a seed used for the novelty of the Chia Pet™, clay animals with sprouted Chia seeds covering their bodies. Little is known, however, of the seeds tremendous nutritional value and medicinal properties. For centuries, this tiny little seed was used as a staple food by the Indians of the southwest and Mexico. Known as the running food, its use as a high-energy endurance food has been recorded as far back as the ancient Aztecs. It was said the Aztec warriors subsisted on the Chia seed during the conquests. The Indians of the southwest would eat as little as a teaspoon full when going on a 24hr. forced march. Indians running from the Colorado River to the California coast to trade turquoise for seashells would only bring the Chia seed for their nourishment.

Nutritional Benefits

If you try mixing a spoonful of Chia in a glass of water and leaving it for approximately 30 minutes or so, when you return, the glass will appear to contain not seeds or water, but an almost solid gelatin. This gel-forming reaction is due to the soluble fiber in the Chia. Researchers believe this same gel-forming phenomenon takes place in the stomach when food containing these gummy fibers, known as mucilages, are eaten. The gel that is formed in the stomach creates a physical barrier between carbohydrates and the digestive enzymes that break them down, thus slowing the conversion of carbohydrates into sugar.

In addition to the obvious benefits for diabetics, this slowing in the conversion of carbohydrates into sugar offers the ability for creating endurance. Carbohydrates are the fuel for energy in our bodies. Prolonging their conversion into sugar stabilizes metabolic changes, diminishing the surges of highs and lows creating a longer duration in their fueling effects.

One of the exceptional qualities of the Chia seed is its hydrophilic properties, having the ability to absorb more than 12 times its weight in water. Its ability to hold on to water offers the ability to prolong hydration. Fluids and electrolytes provide the environment that supports the life of all the body’s cells. Their concentration and composition are regulated to remain as constant as possible. With Chia seeds, you retain moisture; regulate more efficiently the body’s absorption of nutrients and body fluids. Because there is a greater efficiency in the utilization of body fluids, the electrolyte balance is maintained.

Example: Fluid and electrolyte imbalances occur when large amounts of fluids are lost resulting from vomiting, diarrhea, high fever, or more commonly from sweating. The loss of extracellular fluid occurs in these conditions. Intercellular fluid then shifts out of cells to compensate, causing abnormal distribution of electrolytes across cell membranes resulting in cellular malfunction. So, retaining and efficiently utilizing body fluids maintains the integrity of extracellular fluids, protecting intercellular fluid balance. The results of which ensure normal electrolyte dispersion across cell membranes (electrolyte balance), maintaining fluid balances, resulting in normal cellular function.

Hydrophilic Colloids for All Living Cells

Chia seeds are the definitive hydrophilic colloid for the 21-century diet. Hydrophilic colloids, (a watery, gelatinous, glue-like substance) form the underlying elements of all living cells. They possess the property of readily taking up and giving off the substances essential to cell life. The precipitation of the hydrophilic colloids causes cell death.

The foods we eat, in the raw state, consist largely of hydrophilic colloids. When cooked on the other hand, precipitates its colloidal integrity. This change in the colloidal state alters the hydration capacity of our foods to interfere with their ability to absorb digestive juices. If we were to eat a raw diet, we wouldn’t need to introduce the addition of any hydrophilic colloid to our diet. Uncooked foods contain sufficient hydrophilic colloid to keep gastric mucosa in the proper condition. But, even with raw foods, they must first be partially broken down by the digestive juices, beginning in the mouth and continuing through the upper tract, to allow the gelatinous reaction to take place. Because of this upper tract digestive process, those who suffer from slow digestion, gas formation, relaxed cardia and heartburn in which the burning is due to organic acids instead of an excess of the normal hydrochloric acid, which frequently accompanies chronic inflammation disease affecting such organs as the heart, lungs, gall bladder and appendix, are usually restricted from eating raw foods. A hydrophilic colloid incorporated with these foods may be used either in connection with the patient’s regular food or with whatever diet the physician feels is best suited for his patient. The patient with gastric atony or nervous indigestion who complains of heartburn and/or vomiting four to five hours after eating is often helped. There is a lessening of emptying time of the stomach and an improvement in gastric tone.

Chia Improves Digestion

Chia seed may be used in conjunction with almost any diet your doctor or nutritionist feels is necessary for your condition. The Chia’s hydrophilic colloidal properties aid the digestion of any foods contributing to the patients suffering as a result of a sour stomach. Even if you have sensitivity to certain foods, they may be tolerated with slight discomfort or none at all if a hydrophilic colloid is made a part of your diet. The positive effects on the digestion in the upper portion of the gastrointestinal tract often leads to puree their foods may find benefits from hydrophilic colloids which may lead to eliminating the necessity for pureeing. Even raw vegetables, green salads and fruits, which are largely restricted, may often be given to these patients with little or no discomfort after a short time.

There are several hydrophilic foods available that offer these natural benefits. Cactus juice, beet juice, agar, the edible seaweeds, and many proprietary preparations, which include the silica gels, mucilaginous substance of vegetables origin, are among colloids that prove effective. Each one of the above mentioned substances have one or more drawbacks. They are either too expensive, they may produce toxic side effects, are bad tasting, not readily available, have insufficient hydration capability or are indigestible.

Chia seed, a muscle and tissue builder and an energizer of endurance with extensive hydration properties, possesses none of the above disadvantages, and because if its physiochemical properties, supports effective treatment in immediate problems of digestion. Exactly why this should be true may be puzzling at first. However, if we consider the effect of unusual irritation upon the nerves of the gastrointestinal canal, it is reasonable they think that a less violent and more balanced digestion might quiet the activity of the otherwise hyperactive gut. Inasmuch as the same foods, which formerly produced irritation, may frequently be continued without harm when hydrophilic colloids are used. The relief to nerve irritation seems to offer a logical explanation.

The change, in the lower gastrointestinal tract, is due to the effect of the hydrophilic colloid and to a more complete digestion-taking place along the entire tract due to physiochemical alterations. Both factors are important, as there is undoubtedly a better assimilation of food that supports enhanced nutritional absorption while significantly extending necessary hydration as well as encouraging proper elimination.

Excellent Protein Source

As a source of protein, the Chia, after ingestion, is digested and absorbed very easily. This results in rapid transport to the tissue and utilization by the cells. This efficient assimilation makes the Chia very effective when rapid development of tissue takes place, primarily during growth periods of children and adolescents. Also, for the growth and regeneration of tissue during pregnancy and lactation, and this would also include regeneration of muscle tissue for conditioning, athletes, weight lifters, etc.

Essential Omega 3 Oil

Another unique quality of the Chia seed is its high oil content and the richest vegetables source for the essential omega-3 fatty acid. It has approximately three to ten times the oil concentrations of most grains and one and a half to two times the protein concentrations of other grains. These oils, unsaturated fatty acids, are the essential oils your body needs to help emulsify and absorb the fat soluble vitamins, A, D, E, & K. Chia seeds are rich in the unsaturated fatty acid, linoleic, which the body can not manufacture. When there are rich amounts of linoleic acid sufficiently supplied to the body through diet, linoleic and arachidonic acids can be synthesized from linoleic acid. Unsaturated fatty acids are important for respiration of vital organs and make it easier for oxygen to be transported by the blood stream to all cells, tissues, and organs. They also help maintain resilience and lubrication of all cells and combine with protein and cholesterol to form living membranes that hold the body cells together.

Unsaturated fatty acids are essential for normal glandular activity, especially of the adrenal glands and the thyroid gland. They nourish the skin cells and are essential for healthy mucus membranes and nerves. The unsaturated fatty acids function in the body by cooperating with vitamin D in making calcium available to the tissues, assisting in the assimilation of phosphorus, and stimulating the conversion of carotene into vitamin A. Fatty acids are related to normal functioning of the reproductive system. Chia seeds contain beneficial long-chain triglycerides (LCT) in the right proportion to reduce cholesterol on arterial walls.

The Chia seed is also a rich source of calcium as it contains the important mineral boron, which acts as a catalyst for the absorption and utilization of the calcium by the body.

Dieters Dream Food

Chia, as an ingredient, is a dieter’s dream food. There are limitless ways to incorporate the Chia seed into your diet. Chia can be prepared with pure water before using in recipes. The seed will absorb 9 times its weight in water in less than 10 minutes and is very simple to prepare.

Food Extender/Calorie Displacer: The optimum ratio of water to seed, for most recipes, is 9-parts water to 1 part seed. One pound of seed will make 10 pounds of Chia gel. This is the most unique structural quality of the Chia seed. The seed’s hydrophilic (water absorbing) saturated cells hold the water, so when it is mixed with foods, it displaces calories and fat without diluting flavor. In fact, I have found that because Chia gel displaces rather than dilutes, it creates more surface area and can actually enhance the flavor rather than dilute it. Chia gel also works as a fat replacer for many recipes.

Making Chia Gel (9 to 1 ratio): Put water in a sealable plastic container and slowly pour seed into water while briskly mixing with a wire whisk. This process will avoid any clumping of the seed. Wait a couple of minutes, whisk again and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes. Whisk again before using or storing in refrigerator (Gel will keep up to 2 weeks). You can add this mix to jams, jellies, hot or cold cereals, yogurts, mustard, catsup, tartar sauce, BBQ sauce, etc... Add the gel, between 50% to 75% by volume, to any of the non-bake mentioned foods, mix well and taste. You will notice a very smooth texture with the integrity of the flavor intact. In addition to adding up to 50% to 75% more volume to the foods used, you have displaced calories and fat by incorporating an ingredient that is 90% water. Use as a fat replacer, for energy and endurance, or for added great taste, buy substituting the oil in your breads with Chia gel. Top your favorite bread dough before baking with Chia gel (for toping on baked goods, breads, cookies, piecrust, etc., reduce the water ratio to 8 parts water to 1 part Chia seed) for added shelf life.

There are additional benefits from the Chia seed aside from the nutritive enhancements when used as an ingredient. It was also used by the Indians and missionaries as a poultice for gunshot wounds and other serious injuries. They would pack the wounds with Chia seeds to avoid infections and promote healing. There is a wealth of benefits beyond the information outlined in this article and treasure-trove of benefits yet to be discovered. Chia seed, having a qualitatively unique situational richness along with a profound nutritive profile is one of man’s most useful and beneficial foods and is destined to be the Ancient Food of the Future.

God Never Intended Us to Suffer!

I attended a so called ‘School of the Prophets’ in the late 1970’s, and praise God, I listened and heard a professor say that of all groups in society, Black men are found to have diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, heart disease, apoplexy, and other diet related health problems, more than any other segment of the population. Intemperance in diet caused all the suffering and woe we humans experience. Christians and worldlings alike, suffer similarly when they follow the same patterns in eating, drinking, and also the same course of treatment after a sickness is diagnosed. There are examples in my own personal family and life, of this very issue. ******* In Gods word, the lesson of how He fed the children of Israel, and also his feeding of Elijah in the wilderness, are two distinct messages for all people living in these last days. Our creator taught by example, and He would know best of all, that the human body, our machinery, would operate at its maximum capacity, on two meals per day. Gods Testimony, noted in Revelations 19:10, also gives instruction for heavy laborers and the vast majority, stating that the two meal plan, per day, is optimum. ******* Diabetes adversely affects all organs and systems of the body. The pancrease has to work any time food is taken. Blood sugar, glucose, must be lowered, insulin is secreted to accomplish this, and this high energy consumption process, lessens the vital force, and can cause the pancrease to fail. Eating between meals, many times per day, is of satan, and will cause needless suffering. Do not drink the wine of Babylon, which comes in many forms. Remnant, have faith in God and Obey His instruction, in all its forms. http://amazon.com/dp/B008KGJ1RO

Revelation 14

"The message of this chapter constitutes a threefold warning which is to prepare the inhabitants of the earth for the Lord’s second coming. The announcement, “The hour of His judgment is come,” points to the closing work of Christ’s ministration for the salvation of men. It hearlds a truth which must be proclaimed until the Saviour’s intercession shall cease and He shall return to the earth to take His people to Himself. The work of judgment which began in 1844 must continue until the cases of all are decided, both of the living and the dead; hence it will extend to the close of human probation. That men may be prepared to stand in the judgment, the message commands them to “fear God, and give glory to Him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.” The results of an acceptance of these messages is given in the word: “Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.” In order to be prepared for the judgment, it is necessary that men should keep the law of God. That law will be the standard of character in the judgment."
