Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—
As many as have spoken, have also foretold these days. You are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘And in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’ 26 To you first, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your iniquities.” Acts 3
Remember that Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, was raised from the dead according to my gospel—
'Remember that Christians are called out of the world, —called from sin to Christ, (Eph 2:5) from vanity to faith, from uncleanness to holiness; and this in accordance with God's divine purpose and grace; (Rom. 8:30).
Those who are called, are sanctified, —made partakers of the divine nature (2 Pet. 1:1-4); through Christ's resurrection, Rom 1:4'
They stumble, being disobedient to the word, —But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 1 Peter 2
For sure it's incredibly weird!
William Miller's ONLY message was that Jesus was going to return on a specific date - that's the ONLY thing an individual could objectively weigh out in their mind. That was it, there was NO other message. The message was false AND contradicted Scripture.
Ellen White rebuked Christians who rejected the message - claimed they didn't want Jesus to come because they cherished their sins!
