Conclusion

Christ died in order to bring the church into existence (Eph. 5:25). It represents the strait and narrow way that leads to eternal life (Matt. 7:13-14; Acts 9:1-2). The wise man knew that a way could exist that had the potential to seem like the right way yet lead to destruction. He wrote, "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death" (Prov. 14:12). Jeremiah knew that man inherently does not have within him the ability to successfully direct his own way to God. He wrote, "O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps" (Jer. 10:23). We need now more than ever to redouble our resolve to "seek the old paths" contained in the Bible, for it is "the good way" (Jer. 6:16).

QUOTE

"Force is the last resort of every false religion. At first it tries attraction, as the king of Babylon tried the power of music and outward show. If these attractions, invented by men inspired by Satan, failed to make men worship the image, the hungry flames of the furnace were ready to consume them. So it will be now." Ellen Go White, Signs of the Times, May 6, 1897
