 God Puts His Seal Upon Them as Redeemed who Endure the Tribulation with Faith and Patience ㅡ

 “And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly.” (Luke 18:7, 8, NIV).

 Could men see with heavenly vision, they would behold companies of angels that excel in strength stationed about those who have kept the word of Christ’s patience. 

 With sympathizing tenderness, angels have witnessed their distress and have heard their prayers. 

 They are waiting the word of their Commander to snatch them from their peril. 

 But they must wait yet a little longer. The people of God must drink of the cup and be baptized with the baptism. 

 The very delay, so painful to them, is the best answer to their petitions. 

 As they endeavor to wait trustingly for the Lord to work they are led to exercise faith, hope, and patience, which have been too little exercised during their religious experience. 

 Yet for the elect’s sake the time of trouble will be shortened.

 The end will come more quickly than men expect. 

 The wheat will be gathered and bound in sheaves for the garner of God; the tares will be bound as fagots for the fires of destruction.

(The Great Controversy 630.2)
