Those who accept it find themselves called to “fear God and give him glory [reflect His character].” They show the world God’s character of love, not only by their words, but also by their lives of dynamic witness. They offer a thrilling revelation of what God can do through human beings filled with the Spirit of Christ.

When were these three angels’ messages to be proclaimed throughout the world? When the hour of God’s “judgment has come.” Guide 13 explains that Jesus began the work of His pre-advent judgment in 1844. In that very year, 1844, Jesus inspired people all over the world to begin preaching the message of Revelation 14.

This message calls for us to “worship him who made the heavens, [and] the earth” (Revelation 14:7). God asks us to “remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy” because “in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth” (Exodus 20:8-11). In 1844 when Darwin was propounding the theory of evolution, God was calling people back to worship Him as the Creator. At the very time evolution began to threaten the authority of God’s Word, those preaching the three angels’ messages discovered the seventh-day Sabbath of God’s Word and began to keep it in honor of the Creator of heaven and earth.
