Dear elder. You are my brother by the blood of Christ. You are my friend I have never met. You are the Lord’s annointed. So I will continue to listen to you on other subjects about salvation. This subject or statement you made that we need to develop a close relationship with our guardian angel requires review. I can sum up the response with the following bible verses. James 4:6-8 NLT [6] And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." [7] So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. [8] Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world. This is how we resist spiritualism. We are never called to speak to any angel whether fallen or holy. Truly, “our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.” The good angels are instruments. They are the translators. God gives the revelation first to his Son who speaks God talk. Jesus sends his angel who translates that heavenly language into man talk. In all my interviews with the public, I never address the translator. I acknowledge only the deaf man who only knows ASL. I look only at him. I look only at the Father and the Son. I don’t need to know the technical details of the call. Genesis 4:26 says in the last sentence what prayer is. “Then began men to call upon the name of Jehovah.” “And it shall come to pass that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” says the LORD according to Isaiah 65:24 ASV I acknowledge the angels bring our prayers to the heavenly altar and they record our actions and words. Maybe this is so technical that people may be too tempted to talk to angels. This is nothing new among Christians. Even the prophets spoke to angels but the responsibility of the gift of prophecy was not for everyone. Even apostle John was rebuked. We are to focus on the Father and the only begotten Son of God. People are so desperate that they pray to the Holy Spirit. We know better. We know who he is but we don’t pray to the spirit or thus the mechanism. Please, I pray you would reconsider this.
Thank you. Just a few moments later in the video I recalled my statement. We co-work with the angels, as Cornelius and Peter did in Acts chapter 10, which I long to do.
Daniel, I really appreciate that you allowed an open discussion from your audience. I learned alot from what they had to say. I really enjoyed their intelligence and the analogy they gave. THANKS AGAIN
Time Snap just before 19:32; Did not the angel say to John when he bowed down to the angel; do not worship me, for I am ... your fellow brethren and servant, worship God, etc..." Don't we have a relationship with our brethren? Does that mean we worship them?
After an earnest season of prayer, testimonies were borne in quick succession by nearly all present. It was a profitable meeting to us all. Although of different nationalities, our hearts were united on worshiping the one only true God. It is with an earnest longing that I look forward to the time when the events of the day of Pentecost shall be repeated with even greater power than on that occasion. John says, "I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory." Then, as at the Pentecostal season, the people will hear the truth spoken to them, every man in his own tongue. God can breathe new life into every soul that sincerely desires to serve him, and can touch the lips with a live coal from off the altar, and cause them to become eloquent with his praise. Thousands of voices will be imbued with the power to speak forth the wonderful truths of God's word. The stammering tongue will be unloosed, and the timid will be made strong to bear courageous testimony to the truth. May the Lord help his people to cleanse the soul temple from every defilement, and to maintain such a close connection with him that they may be partakers of the latter rain when it shall be poured out. RH July 20, 1886, par. 10
-I have no specific time of which to speak when the outpouring of the Holy Spirit will take place-when the mighty angel will come down from heaven, and unite with the third angel in closing up the work for this world; my message is that our only safety is in being ready for the heavenly refreshing, having our lamps trimmed and burning (The Review and Herald, March 29, 1892). 7BC 984.7
If we keep our minds stayed upon Christ, He will come unto us "as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth." Hosea 6:3. As the Sun of Righteousness, He will arise upon us "with healing in His wings." Malachi 4:2. We shall "grow as the lily." We shall "revive as the corn, and grow as the vine." Hosea 14:5, 7. By constantly relying upon Christ as our personal Saviour, we shall grow up into Him in all things who is our head. COL 66.1
Strength and grace have been provided through Christ to be brought by ministering angels to every believing soul. None are so sinful that they cannot find strength, purity, and righteousness in Jesus, who died for them. He is waiting to strip them of their garments stained and polluted with sin, and to put upon them the white robes of righteousness; He bids them live and not die. SC 52.3
We must not wait for the latter rain. It is coming upon all who will recognize and appropriate the dew and showers of grace that fall upon us. When we gather up the fragments of light, when we appreciate the sure mercies of God, who loves to have us trust Him, then every promise will be fulfilled. Isaiah 61:11 quoted. The whole earth is to be filled with the glory of God (Letter 151, 1897). 7BC 984.5

Under date of August 9, 1903, I further wrote regarding this sensational report: "How comes the word that I have declared that New York is to be swept away by a tidal wave? This I have never said. I have said, as I looked at the great buildings going up there, story after story, 'What terrible scenes will take place when the Lord shall arise to shake terribly the earth! Then the words of Revelation 18:1-3 will be fulfilled.' The whole of the eighteenth chapter of Revelation is a warning of what is coming on the earth. But I have no light in particular in regard to what is coming on New York, only that I know that one day the great buildings there will be thrown down by the turning and overturning of God's power. From the light given me, I know that destruction is in the world. One word from the Lord, one touch of his mighty power, and these massive structures will fall. Scenes will take place the fearfulness of which we can not imagine. RH July 5, 1906, par. 13 - RH July 5, 1906, par. 14
Revelation 18 points to the time when, as the result of rejecting the threefold warning of Revelation 14:6-12, the church will have fully reached the condition foretold by the second angel, and the people of God still in Babylon will be called upon to separate from her communion. This message is the last that will ever be given to the world; and it will accomplish its work. {GC 390}
26:40 Absolutely agree Sister. I suppose angels have some aversion for sinners because of the sin, and they are co-created though not fallen. They are not Jesus would could love us as our creator then as co-sufferer and victor over sin. So the only way to the angels is through Jesus.
Please, Pastor may you help me the similarity of Matthew 28:19 - 20, and Acts 2:36 - 40 ? Is 'In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, ' and ' in the name of Jesus ' the same ?

The last great conflict is before us, but help is to come to all who love God and obey His law, and the earth, the whole earth, is to be lighted with the glory of God. "Another angel" is to come down from heaven. This angel represents the giving of the loud cry, which is to come from those who are preparing to cry mightily, with a strong voice, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird" (Revelation 18:1, 2). We have a testing message to give, and I am instructed to say to our people, "Unify, unify." But we are not to unify with those who are departing from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. With our hearts sweet and kind and true, we are to go forth to proclaim the message, giving no heed to those who lead away from the truth.-Manuscript 31, 1906 3SM 412.1 - 3SM 412.2
Reason this : KJV Isaiah 48:16 16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
The Lord God (the possessor of the Spirit mentioned), hath send me. This does not demand that the Spirit of God is a separate entity. I have spoken in regard to this section of the Bible here, if you are interested: ruclips.net/video/lC6yRZ50Cy0/видео.html You can scroll through to find a few verses before the one in question, to get the context.
ADDITIONAL LIGHT : I stated that I was a stock holder and I could not let the resolution pass, that there was to be special light for God's people as they neared the closing scenes of this earth's history. Another angel was to come from heaven with a message and the whole earth was to be lightened with his glory. It would be impossible for us to state just how this additional light would come. It might come in a very unexpected manner, in a way that would not agree with the ideas that many have conceived. 1888 239.1, The E.G.White 1888 Materials p.239
PSALM 83:18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JE•HO'•VAH, art the most high over all the earth. Dear Daniel, given the Bible verse above, please explain how Christ can also be given the name Jehovah when GOD'S WORD SAYS, "whose name (ALONE) is JEHOVAH,". Also, Daniel, can you give an example from the Bible that shows us that Jehovah gave His name to His Son Christ Jesus. Do we have a witness of three or more to this fact in God's word?And in what context did the Signs of The Times make this claim that Christ was given the name of Jehovah? I thank you for CARFULLY explaining these questions.
You have asked this of me many times. Please consider the possibility that these following verses could refer to such a truth: Phil. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Rev. 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
Yes, and I thank you for your continued help with this. I have asked these questions several times and still do not understand. But the spirit of God, (I believe,) seeks for me to understand these questions. And I thank you for your patience and Christ like spirit in helping me with understanding these questions. For example, isn't the name of Christ Jesus the name above all names that the Father has given? And when Ellen G. White uses the name Jehovah does she ever use that name in reference to Christ? I thank you again for helping me understand these things. AND AGAIN..., PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY PSALMS SAYS WHOSE NAME ALONE IS JEHOVAH. Alone, it does mean no one else shares that name correct? I thank you for your valuable time in helping me with this.
@@reginadiehl2793 Please use a digital program to search the word "alone" in that verse. That should explain the meaning quite quickly. It's similar to 1 Corinthians 8:6.
Dear Daniel, I thank you for your suggestion concerning the word alone. And I will do a further study about that word. However, there were two other questions I had asked in that same comment that remain unanswered. My hope is that you can help me with the answer to these questions because through these years you often mention in your sermons that you welcome questions even if you don't have the answer to them. Again, I thank you for your valuable time.
I have been listening your various lessons, you just explain to people, who God is, and who His Son is, and who His Holy Spirit is, and how His angels minister to His people. Question to you : What does an assertion, " Three Persons in The Godhead " mean ?
Hello. Here is what the Spirit of Prophecy says... "The Comforter that Christ promised to send after He ascended to heaven, is the Spirit in all the fulness of the Godhead, making manifest the power of divine grace to all who receive and believe in Christ as a personal Saviour. There are three living persons of the heavenly trio; in the name of these three great powers-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit-those who receive Christ by living faith are baptized, and these powers will co-operate with the obedient subjects of heaven in their efforts to live the new life in Christ." Ms21-1906 (November 1905) par. 11
The Holy Spirit is Christ Himself. "Cumbered with humanity, Christ could not be in every place personally; therefore it was altogether for their advantage that He should leave them, go to His Father, and send the Holy Spirit to be His successor on earth. The Holy Spirit is Himself, divested of the personality of humanity, and independent thereof. He would represent Himself as present in all places by His Holy Spirit, as the Omnipresent. “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall [although unseen by you] teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. ... Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” [John 14:26; 16:7.] Lt119-1895
RE: The Holy Spirit... The Holy Spirit is Himself, divested of the personality of humanity, and independent thereof. Christ would represent Himself as present in all places by His Holy Spirit,-as the Omnipresent. “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall [although unseen by you] teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. . . . Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.” PrT May 30, 1895, par. 7
While we bind ourselves to the development of the truth in the past angels' messages, we are announcing the message of the third angel and of the other angel that follows the third, the second time proclaiming the fall of Babylon. We are to give the message, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.... Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Revelation 18:1, 4). This message is to come to the churches. We are to consider the best plans for accomplishing this. The message must be so presented as to command the attention of reasoning minds. 10MR 315.1 - 10MR 315.2,E.G.White, MANUSCRIPT Releases, Vol.10, p.315, par.2
It is true that in the time of the end, when God's work in the earth is closing, the earnest efforts put forth by consecrated believers under the guidance of the Holy Spirit are to be accompanied by special tokens of divine favor. Under the figure of the early and the latter rain, that falls in Eastern lands at seedtime and harvest, the Hebrew prophets foretold the bestowal of spiritual grace in extraordinary measure upon God's church. The outpouring of the Spirit in the days of the apostles was the beginning of the early, or former, rain, and glorious was the result. To the end of time the presence of the Spirit is to abide with the true church. But near the close of earth's harvest, a special bestowal of spiritual grace is promised to prepare the church for the coming of the Son of man. This outpouring of the Spirit is likened to the falling of the latter rain; and it is for this added power that Christians are to send their petitions to the Lord of the harvest "in the time of the latter rain." In response, "the Lord shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain." "He will cause to come down ... the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain," Zechariah 10:1; Joel 2:23. AA 54.2 - AA 55.1
1Corinthians 8:5,6. Christ was God essentially, and in the highest sense. He was with God from all eternity, God over all, blessed forevermore.-The Review and Herald, April 5, 1906, p. 8 7ABC 441.6
Wondrous combination of man and God! ... He humbled Himself to man's nature. He did this that the Scripture might be fulfilled; and the plan was entered into by the Son of God, knowing all the steps in His humiliation, that He must descend to make an expiation for the sins of a condemned, groaning world. What humility was this! It amazed angels. The tongue can never describe it; the imagination cannot take it in. The eternal Word consented to be made flesh! God became man! It was a wonderful humility. But He stepped still lower; the Man must humble Himself as a man to bear insult, reproach, shameful accusations, and abuse. There seemed to be no safe place for Him in His own territory. He had to flee from place to place for His life. He was betrayed by one of His disciples; He was denied by one of His most zealous followers. He was mocked. He was crowned with a crown of thorns. He was scourged. He was forced to bear the burden of the cross. TMK 68.2 - TMK 68.3. Question to you : God is One . Is this God became man! God the Father ?
(ch. 14:9-12; Habakkuk 2:14; see EGW on Acts 2:1-4). The Angel of Revelation 18- The prophecies in the eighteenth of Revelation will soon be fulfilled. During the proclamation of the third angel's message, "another angel" is to "come down from heaven, having great power," and the earth is to be "lightened with his glory." The Spirit of the Lord will so graciously bless consecrated human instrumentalities that men, women, and children will open their lips in praise and thanksgiving, filling the earth with the knowledge of God, and with His unsurpassed glory, as the waters cover the sea. 7BC 983.9
KJV Matthew 3:16-17 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
But while God's Word speaks of the humanity of Christ when upon this earth, it also speaks decidedly regarding his preexistence. The Word existed as a divine being, even as the eternal Son of God, in union and oneness with his Father. From everlasting he was the Mediator of the covenant, the one in whom all nations of the earth, both Jews and Gentiles, if they accepted him, were to be blessed. "The Word was with God, and the Word was God." Before men or angels were created, the Word was with God, and was God.-The Review and Herald, April 5, 1906. 7ABC 441.2. Question to you : Was ' the Word was God ' God the Father ?
Read this quotation : These brethren knew nothing of the mission of the Holy Spirit. When asked by Paul if they had received the Holy Ghost, they answered, "We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost." "Unto what then were ye baptized?" Paul inquired, and they said, "Unto John's baptism." Then the apostle set before them the great truths that are the foundation of the Christian's hope. He told them of Christ's life on this earth and of His cruel death of shame. He told them how the Lord of life had broken the barriers of the tomb and risen triumphant over death. He repeated the Saviour's commission to His disciples: "All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Matthew 28:18, 19. He told them also of Christ's promise to send the Comforter, through whose power mighty signs and wonders would be wrought, and he described how gloriously this promise had been fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost. With deep interest and grateful, wondering joy the brethren listened to Paul's words. By faith they grasped the wonderful truth of Christ's atoning sacrifice and received Him as their Redeemer. They were then baptized in the name of Jesus, and as Paul "laid his hands upon them," they received also the baptism of the Holy Spirit, by which they were enabled to speak the languages of other nations and to prophesy. Thus they were qualified to labor as missionaries in Ephesus and its vicinity and also to go forth to proclaim the gospel in Asia Minor. AA 282.2 - AA 283.1,E.G.White,The acts of the Apostles p.282 - 283
I have read that many times, thank you. It uses both ideas, not just one. If you go through the study on baptism that I sent to you, there I explain why I understand that to be possible.
Was the human nature of the Son of Mary changed into the divine nature of the Son of God? No; the two natures were mysteriously blended in one person-the man Christ Jesus. In Him dwelt all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. When Christ was crucified, it was His human nature that died. Deity did not sink and die; that would have been impossible. Christ, the sinless One, will save every son and daughter of Adam who accepts the salvation proffered them, consenting to become the children of God. The Saviour has purchased the fallen race with His own blood. This is a great mystery, a mystery that will not be fully, completely understood in all its greatness until the translation of the redeemed shall take place. Then the power and greatness and efficacy of the gift of God to man will be understood. But the enemy is determined that this gift shall be so mystified that it will become as nothingness (S.D.A. Bible Commentary 5:1113). LHU 76.2 - LHU 76.3
KJV Revelation 1:5-8 5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth.

Amen. 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Question to you : Is Jesus the Almighty ?
No, He is not. Neither does that verse describe Him to be. Look at the context of the entire chapter, and with God‘s grace you will see that His Father is the Almighty. Rev. 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, (now imagine Christ pointing to His Father) saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

III. Three Persons in the Godhead : There are three living persons of the heavenly trio; in the name of these three great powers-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit-those who receive Christ by living faith are baptized, and these powers will co-operate with the obedient subjects of heaven in their efforts to live the new life in Christ.-Evangelism, 615.

This subject or statement you made that we need to develop a close relationship with our guardian angel requires review.
I can sum up the response with the following bible verses.
James 4:6-8 NLT
[6] And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." [7] So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. [8] Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.
This is how we resist spiritualism. We are never called to speak to any angel whether fallen or holy. Truly, “our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.” The good angels are instruments. They are the translators. God gives the revelation first to his Son who speaks God talk. Jesus sends his angel who translates that heavenly language into man talk. In all my interviews with the public, I never address the translator. I acknowledge only the deaf man who only knows ASL. I look only at him.
I look only at the Father and the Son. I don’t need to know the technical details of the call. Genesis 4:26 says in the last sentence what prayer is. “Then began men to call upon the name of Jehovah.”
“And it shall come to pass that, before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” says the LORD according to Isaiah 65:24 ASV
I acknowledge the angels bring our prayers to the heavenly altar and they record our actions and words. Maybe this is so technical that people may be too tempted to talk to angels. This is nothing new among Christians. Even the prophets spoke to angels but the responsibility of the gift of prophecy was not for everyone. Even apostle John was rebuked. We are to focus on the Father and the only begotten Son of God. People are so desperate that they pray to the Holy Spirit. We know better. We know who he is but we don’t pray to the spirit or thus the mechanism.
Please, I pray you would reconsider this.

Scenes will take place the fearfulness of which we can not imagine. RH July 5, 1906, par. 13 - RH July 5, 1906, par. 14
Revelation 18 points to the time when, as the result of rejecting the threefold warning of Revelation 14:6-12, the church will have fully reached the condition foretold by the second angel, and the people of God still in Babylon will be called upon to separate from her communion. This message is the last that will ever be given to the world; and it will accomplish its work. {GC 390}
26:40 Absolutely agree Sister. I suppose angels have some aversion for sinners because of the sin, and they are co-created though not fallen. They are not Jesus would could love us as our creator then as co-sufferer and victor over sin. So the only way to the angels is through Jesus.
Please, Pastor may you help me the similarity of Matthew 28:19 - 20, and Acts 2:36 - 40 ? Is 'In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, ' and ' in the name of Jesus ' the same ?
Thank you for asking. Please go through this presentation to find what I believe is an answer that allows for Matthew, Mark, Luke (who also wrote the book of Acts), Paul, EGW, and the pioneers: www.revelationwithdaniel.com/baptizing-into-the-family/

The last great conflict is before us, but help is to come to all who love God and obey His law, and the earth, the whole earth, is to be lighted with the glory of God. "Another angel" is to come down from heaven. This angel represents the giving of the loud cry, which is to come from those who are preparing to cry mightily, with a strong voice, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird" (Revelation 18:1, 2).
We have a testing message to give, and I am instructed to say to our people, "Unify, unify." But we are not to unify with those who are departing from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils. With our hearts sweet and kind and true, we are to go forth to proclaim the message, giving no heed to those who lead away from the truth.-Manuscript 31, 1906 3SM 412.1 - 3SM 412.2
Reason this : KJV Isaiah 48:16
16 Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me.
The Lord God (the possessor of the Spirit mentioned), hath send me. This does not demand that the Spirit of God is a separate entity.
I have spoken in regard to this section of the Bible here, if you are interested: ruclips.net/video/lC6yRZ50Cy0/видео.html
You can scroll through to find a few verses before the one in question, to get the context.
ADDITIONAL LIGHT : I stated that I was a stock holder and I could not let the resolution pass, that there was to be special light for God's people as they neared the closing scenes of this earth's history. Another angel was to come from heaven with a message and the whole earth was to be lightened with his glory. It would be impossible for us to state just how this additional light would come. It might come in a very unexpected manner, in a way that would not agree with the ideas that many have conceived. 1888 239.1, The E.G.White 1888 Materials p.239
PSALM 83:18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JE•HO'•VAH, art the most high over all the earth.
Dear Daniel, given the Bible verse above, please explain how Christ can also be given the name Jehovah when GOD'S WORD SAYS, "whose name (ALONE) is JEHOVAH,".
Also, Daniel, can you give an example from the Bible that shows us that Jehovah gave His name to His Son Christ Jesus. Do we have a witness of three or more to this fact in God's word?And in what context did the Signs of The Times make this claim that Christ was given the name of Jehovah?
I thank you for CARFULLY explaining these questions.
You have asked this of me many times. Please consider the possibility that these following verses could refer to such a truth:
Phil. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Rev. 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
Yes, and I thank you for your continued help with this. I have asked these questions several times and still do not understand. But the spirit of God, (I believe,) seeks for me to understand these questions. And I thank you for your patience and Christ like spirit in helping me with understanding these questions. For example, isn't the name of Christ Jesus the name above all names that the Father has given? And when Ellen G. White uses the name Jehovah does she ever use that name in reference to Christ? I thank you again for helping me understand these things.
AND AGAIN..., PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY PSALMS SAYS WHOSE NAME ALONE IS JEHOVAH. Alone, it does mean no one else shares that name correct?
I thank you for your valuable time in helping me with this.
@@reginadiehl2793 Please use a digital program to search the word "alone" in that verse. That should explain the meaning quite quickly. It's similar to 1 Corinthians 8:6.
Dear Daniel, I thank you for your suggestion concerning the word alone. And I will do a further study about that word. However, there were two other questions I had asked in that same comment that remain unanswered. My hope is that you can help me with the answer to these questions because through these years you often mention in your sermons that you welcome questions even if you don't have the answer to them.
Again, I thank you for your valuable time.
I have been listening your various lessons, you just explain to people, who God is, and who His Son is, and who His Holy Spirit is, and how His angels minister to His people. Question to you : What does an assertion, " Three Persons in The Godhead " mean ?
You’ve asked a question that I cannot answer because there is no phrase in inspiration with the wording that you’ve quoted.
Of, not in. 👍🏼
Hello. Here is what the Spirit of Prophecy says...
"The Comforter that Christ promised to send after He ascended to heaven, is the Spirit in all the fulness of the Godhead, making manifest the power of divine grace to all who receive and believe in Christ as a personal Saviour. There are three living persons of the heavenly trio; in the name of these three great powers-the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit-those who receive Christ by living faith are baptized, and these powers will co-operate with the obedient subjects of heaven in their efforts to live the new life in Christ." Ms21-1906 (November 1905) par. 11
The Holy Spirit is Christ Himself.
"Cumbered with humanity, Christ could not be in every place personally; therefore it was altogether for their advantage that He should leave them, go to His Father, and send the Holy Spirit to be His successor on earth. The Holy Spirit is Himself, divested of the personality of humanity, and independent thereof. He would represent Himself as present in all places by His Holy Spirit, as the Omnipresent. “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall [although unseen by you] teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. ... Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.” [John 14:26; 16:7.] Lt119-1895
RE: The Holy Spirit...
The Holy Spirit is Himself, divested of the personality of humanity, and independent thereof. Christ would represent Himself as present in all places by His Holy Spirit,-as the Omnipresent. “But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall [although unseen by you] teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. . . . Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.” PrT May 30, 1895, par. 7
While we bind ourselves to the development of the truth in the past angels' messages, we are announcing the message of the third angel and of the other angel that follows the third, the second time proclaiming the fall of Babylon.
We are to give the message, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.... Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues" (Revelation 18:1, 4). This message is to come to the churches. We are to consider the best plans for accomplishing this. The message must be so presented as to command the attention of reasoning minds. 10MR 315.1 - 10MR 315.2,E.G.White, MANUSCRIPT Releases, Vol.10, p.315, par.2
It is true that in the time of the end, when God's work in the earth is closing, the earnest efforts put forth by consecrated believers under the guidance of the Holy Spirit are to be accompanied by special tokens of divine favor. Under the figure of the early and the latter rain, that falls in Eastern lands at seedtime and harvest, the Hebrew prophets foretold the bestowal of spiritual grace in extraordinary measure upon God's church. The outpouring of the Spirit in the days of the apostles was the beginning of the early, or former, rain, and glorious was the result. To the end of time the presence of the Spirit is to abide with the true church.
But near the close of earth's harvest, a special bestowal of spiritual grace is promised to prepare the church for the coming of the Son of man. This outpouring of the Spirit is likened to the falling of the latter rain; and it is for this added power that Christians are to send their petitions to the Lord of the harvest "in the time of the latter rain." In response, "the Lord shall make bright clouds, and give them showers of rain." "He will cause to come down ... the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain," Zechariah 10:1; Joel 2:23. AA 54.2 - AA 55.1
1Corinthians 8:5,6. Christ was God essentially, and in the highest sense. He was with God from all eternity, God over all, blessed forevermore.-The Review and Herald, April 5, 1906, p. 8 7ABC 441.6
Wondrous combination of man and God! ... He humbled Himself to man's nature. He did this that the Scripture might be fulfilled; and the plan was entered into by the Son of God, knowing all the steps in His humiliation, that He must descend to make an expiation for the sins of a condemned, groaning world. What humility was this! It amazed angels. The tongue can never describe it; the imagination cannot take it in. The eternal Word consented to be made flesh! God became man! It was a wonderful humility.
But He stepped still lower; the Man must humble Himself as a man to bear insult, reproach, shameful accusations, and abuse. There seemed to be no safe place for Him in His own territory. He had to flee from place to place for His life. He was betrayed by one of His disciples; He was denied by one of His most zealous followers. He was mocked. He was crowned with a crown of thorns. He was scourged. He was forced to bear the burden of the cross. TMK 68.2 - TMK 68.3. Question to you : God is One . Is this God became man! God the Father ?

(ch. 14:9-12; Habakkuk 2:14; see EGW on Acts 2:1-4). The Angel of Revelation 18- The prophecies in the eighteenth of Revelation will soon be fulfilled. During the proclamation of the third angel's message, "another angel" is to "come down from heaven, having great power," and the earth is to be "lightened with his glory." The Spirit of the Lord will so graciously bless consecrated human instrumentalities that men, women, and children will open their lips in praise and thanksgiving, filling the earth with the knowledge of God, and with His unsurpassed glory, as the waters cover the sea. 7BC 983.9
KJV Matthew 3:16-17
16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Please consider this message, starting at about 41:15: ruclips.net/video/JMRoZ9WL-Ug/видео.html
But while God's Word speaks of the humanity of Christ when upon this earth, it also speaks decidedly regarding his preexistence. The Word existed as a divine being, even as the eternal Son of God, in union and oneness with his Father. From everlasting he was the Mediator of the covenant, the one in whom all nations of the earth, both Jews and Gentiles, if they accepted him, were to be blessed. "The Word was with God, and the Word was God." Before men or angels were created, the Word was with God, and was God.-The Review and Herald, April 5, 1906. 7ABC 441.2. Question to you : Was ' the Word was God ' God the Father ?
Yes... the Word was the material/substance of the Father.
Someone once said that the Bible is a Book of opposites...
True Church, false church
Read this quotation : These brethren knew nothing of the mission of the Holy Spirit. When asked by Paul if they had received the Holy Ghost, they answered, "We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost." "Unto what then were ye baptized?" Paul inquired, and they said, "Unto John's baptism."
Then the apostle set before them the great truths that are the foundation of the Christian's hope. He told them of Christ's life on this earth and of His cruel death of shame. He told them how the Lord of life had broken the barriers of the tomb and risen triumphant over death. He repeated the Saviour's commission to His disciples: "All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Matthew 28:18, 19. He told them also of Christ's promise to send the Comforter, through whose power mighty signs and wonders would be wrought, and he described how gloriously this promise had been fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost.
With deep interest and grateful, wondering joy the brethren listened to Paul's words. By faith they grasped the wonderful truth of Christ's atoning sacrifice and received Him as their Redeemer. They were then baptized in the name of Jesus, and as Paul "laid his hands upon them," they received also the baptism of the Holy Spirit, by which they were enabled to speak the languages of other nations and to prophesy. Thus they were qualified to labor as missionaries in Ephesus and its vicinity and also to go forth to proclaim the gospel in Asia Minor. AA 282.2 - AA 283.1,E.G.White,The acts of the Apostles p.282 - 283
I have read that many times, thank you. It uses both ideas, not just one. If you go through the study on baptism that I sent to you, there I explain why I understand that to be possible.
Was the human nature of the Son of Mary changed into the divine nature of the Son of God? No; the two natures were mysteriously blended in one person-the man Christ Jesus. In Him dwelt all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. When Christ was crucified, it was His human nature that died. Deity did not sink and die; that would have been impossible. Christ, the sinless One, will save every son and daughter of Adam who accepts the salvation proffered them, consenting to become the children of God. The Saviour has purchased the fallen race with His own blood.
This is a great mystery, a mystery that will not be fully, completely understood in all its greatness until the translation of the redeemed shall take place. Then the power and greatness and efficacy of the gift of God to man will be understood. But the enemy is determined that this gift shall be so mystified that it will become as nothingness (S.D.A. Bible Commentary 5:1113). LHU 76.2 - LHU 76.3
KJV Revelation 1:5-8
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Question to you : Is Jesus the Almighty ?
No, He is not. Neither does that verse describe Him to be. Look at the context of the entire chapter, and with God‘s grace you will see that His Father is the Almighty.

The book Evangelism is book written by Elder Leroy Froom using Ellen G White comments out of place. So I do not follow the book Evangelism.
