1-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

• Do we need to be established in the present truth?

• 2 Peter 1:12

• For this reason I will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, though you know and be established in the present truth.

1-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

We are to be established in the PRESENT TRUTH. We need to study God’s Word that we may learn WHAT IS PRESENT TURTH FOR OUR TIME. Present truth for any certain age is the truth that is especially adapted and applicable to that particular time.

2-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

• What happens if you reject present truth?

• 2 Peter 2:5

• And did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

2-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH When the Flood was about to come,

a special message of warning was sent to the world by the Lord through Noah. That message about the impending Flood, and the essential preparation needed in order to be saved when it came, was God’s present truth to those who lived just before the Flood.

2-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

The salvation of these people depended on their obedience to that present truth. ALL WHO REJECTED THAT MESSAGE OF PRESENT TRUTH WERE LOST.

3-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH Was there a present truth message in

Jesus day?

Matthew 3:1-3

In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,

and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!”

3-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: “The voice of one crying in the wilderness; ‘Prepare the way of the Lord, Make His paths straight.’”

3-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

When Christ was about to be manifested as the Messiah at His first advent, a special message of present truth adapted to that very hour was sent by the Lord through John the Baptist to prepare God’s people to receive the Messiah as their Saviour.

4-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

Is there a Present Truth for our day?

Matthew 24:37- 39

“But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

4-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

38 “For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,

39 “and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

4-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

We have now come to the time when that same blessed Christ is about to appear to all the world to complete His great work of redemption. As surely as God had a special message of present truth for Noah’s time, just before the flood, and for John’s time just before the appearance of Christ

to Israel as the Messiah, just so HE HAS A SPECIAL MESSAGE OF PRESENT TRUTH FOR OUR DAY.

This describes the coming of Jesus at the last day to reap the harvest of the gospel, and bring an end to the wickedness of this present evil world.

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH What is the messages brought by the

three angels?

Revelation 14: 6-12

Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth-- to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people--

Page 18: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

7 saying with a loud voice, “Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water.”

Page 19: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

8 And another angel followed, saying, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worship the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand,

Page 21: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

10 “he himself shall drink also of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

11 “And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

Page 23: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

Page 24: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH Just before Christ appears on the cloud,

God sends special messages to the entire world. These messages are:

1) Fear God because THE HOUR OF GOD’S JUDGEMENT HAS COME;

2) That BABYLON IS FALLEN;3) To COME OUT OF HER (Rev. 14:8; 18:2,4).

These messages WARN men against the MARK OF THE BEAST, and to lead them to KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD AND THE FAITH OF JESUS (Rev. 14:12).

Page 25: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

This prophecy of Rev. 14:6-12 cannot mean that visible angels will ever audibly preach the message to every nation: this message is the everlasting gospel (Rev. 14:5), and the preaching of the gospel has been committed to MEN, not to angels. This prophecy, therefore, means that God will raise up men who will preach this special message to every nation during the closing era of earth’s history just before the appearing of Christ as described in Rev. 14:14, which follows the proclamation of the message to all the world.

Page 26: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

6-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

This message of Rev. 14:6-12 exhorting everybody to obey God because THE JUDGEMTN HOUR HAS COME, telling of the fall of Babylon, warning against the MARK OF THE BEAST, and calling upon ALL TO KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD AND THE FAITH OF JESUS, MUST OF MUST OF NECESSITY CONSTITUTE GOD’S NECESSITY CONSTITUTE GOD’S PRESENT TRUTH PRESENT TRUTH FOR THESE LAST FOR THESE LAST DAYS IN WHICH WE ARE NOW LIVINGDAYS IN WHICH WE ARE NOW LIVING..

7-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

Is there something we should do today?

Acts 10:5-6

- Now send men to Joppa, and send for Simon whose surname is Peter:

“He is lodging with Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea. He will tell you what you must do.”

Page 28: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

7-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

This message of Rev. 14:6-12 tells us what we ought to do at this time. The message of these verses is just as important for our day as was the message of the impending flood in Noah’s time, and the message of the impending manifestation of the Messiah in the time of John the Baptist. Above everything else, it is most important that we now give heed to this special message of Revelation 14:6-12.

8-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

Can you know for certain what the truth is?

Luke 1:4

that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instructed.

Page 30: THE PRESENT TRUTH. The 21th study in the series. Studies written by William Carey. Presentation by Michael Salzman. All texts are from the New King James

8-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

When you accept this message of Rev. 14, you can be absolutely sure that you have the right message for this hour, because this is the very message that God has put in His prophets word for these last days IN WHICH WE ARE NOW LIVING. In our study of Daniel 8 and 9, we learned how the hour of God’s judgment is come.

8-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

Our next lesson will show that the wrath of God without the mixture of mercy, mentioned in Rev. 14:10, is the seven last plagues. Then we will follow on to learn the meaning of the warning against the MARK OF THE BEAST.

8-PT THE PRESENT TRUTH

Do you understand that there is a truth for today?

Do you want to be established in the present truth?
