What Is The Meaning Of One Accord? - 08/20/15 11:37 AM

There is such an incredible amount of argument on this site, at times even devolving into mean spirited, ad hominem, attacks far from the gentle Spirit of Christ. This is even more prevalent on other SDA sympathetic sites. Some of it is good and fruitful discussion; however, a huge amount of it is no different in spirit than "how many angels can dance on the head of a pin?".

With so many pseudo Penticostal movements burning their way through various, mostly, protestant denominations, I wonder what the genuine article looks like? What does it mean to be of one accord?

Below, is a repost from the Global Warming Farce thread. I felt it deserving of a separate discussion. The context is the rapidly increasing number of "natural" and man-made, disasters:


Our Father is opening doors for us on a scale never seen before! And we squander our precious energy bickering over how squeaky the hinges are.
WE MUST ALL BE WITH ONE ACCORD IN ONE PLACE!

Open your eyes! The Second Beast is stretching his Dragon lips to speak!

Your hair is wet. Your hands, your arms, your face, water runs down your cheeks like tears for the lost. Can you not feel it? The first drops of Rain have begun to fall...

On the Day of Penticost, the Apostles were given power to witness. Small wonder Satan works with all his might to separate believers from one and other!


A Time to Witness—"The Lord has enlightened us in regard to what is coming upon the earth that we may enlighten others, and we shall not be held guiltless if we are content to sit at ease, with folded hands, and quibble over matters of minor importance...." – {3SM 388.6}


The Latter Rain and the Loud Cry

"The angel who unites with the third angel is to lighten the whole earth with his glory. The first angel’s message was carried to every mission station in the world, and in some countries there was the greatest religious interest witnessed since the Reformation. But these are to be exceeded by the last warning of the third angel. – {HF 371.4}
The work will be similar to that of the Day of Pentecost. The “former rain” was given at the opening of the gospel to cause the upspringing of the precious seed; so the “latter rain” will be given at its close for the ripening of the harvest. Hosea 6:3; Joel 2:23. The great work of the gospel is not to close with less manifestation of the power of God than marked its opening. The prophecies which were fulfilled in the outpouring of the former rain at the opening of the gospel are again to be fulfilled in the latter rain at its close. Here are “the times of refreshing” to which the apostle Peter looked forward." Acts 3:19, 20. – {HF 372.1}
