HaP 448.1), donde se reconoce la naturaleza pecaminosa del ser humano y la total dependencia de la justicia de Cristo:
1. “No pusieron su confianza en la carne, no pretendieron poseer una justicia propia, sino que confiaron completamente en la justicia de Cristo.” (
HaP 448.1)
2. “Hombres que han vivido lo más cerca de Dios, hombres que sacrificaron sus vidas antes de cometer a sabiendas un acto pecaminoso, hombres a quienes Dios honró con luz divina y poder, confesaron su naturaleza pecaminosa.” (
HaP 448.1)
3. “Angel, so the remnant church, with brokenness of heart and earnest faith, will plead for pardon and deliverance through Jesus their Advocate. They are fully conscious of the sinfulness of their lives, they see their weakness and unworthiness, and as they look upon themselves they are ready to despair. The tempter stands by to accuse them, as he stood by to resist Joshua. He points to their filthy garments, their defective characters. He presents their weakness and folly, their sins of ingratitude, their unlikeness to Christ, which has dishonored their Redeemer. He endeavors to affright the soul with the thought that their case is hopeless, that the stain of their defilement will never be washed away. He hopes to so destroy their faith that they will yield to his temptations, turn from their allegiance to God, and receive the mark of the beast.” (
5T 473.1)
4. “As the disciples waited for the fulfillment of the promise, they humbled their hearts in true repentance and confessed their unbelief. As they called to remembrance the words that Christ had spoken to them before His death they understood more fully their meaning. ... As they meditated upon His pure, holy life they felt that no toil would be too hard, no sacrifice too great, if only they could bear witness in their lives to the loveliness of Christ's character. ... But they were comforted by the thought that they were forgiven.” (
AA 36.1)
5. “Sincere repentance toward God because of the transgression of His law, and faith in Christ as the sinner's Redeemer and Advocate.” (
3T 481.1)
6. “He had not set aside the law given through Moses, nor infringed upon the authority of Rome. The accusers had been defeated. Now, their robe of pretended holiness torn from them, they stood, guilty and condemned, in the presence of Infinite Purity. They trembled lest the hidden iniquity of their lives should be laid open to the multitude; and one by one, with bowed heads and downcast eyes, they stole away, leaving their victim with the pitying Saviour.” (
DA 461.4)
