    Rebellion Will Be Put Down, March 7

    Sin and the First Rebel

    And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. Romans 16:20.FLB 72.1

    Ever since Adam yielded his mind to Satan's device, the conflict has raged between right and wrong, between God and Satan. Connected with the doing of right there is a power that Satan cannot overcome. Righteousness has a vitality that is divine. Truth will triumph at last over falsehood, and God will vanquish the enemy.26Manuscript 82, 1900.FLB 72.2

    Christ conquered Satan in our behalf.... He is mightier than Satan, and He will shortly bruise him under our feet.27Testimonies for the Church 3:526.FLB 72.3

    In mercy to the universe ... God will finally destroy the rejecters of His grace.28The Great Controversy, 543.FLB 72.4

    “Upon the wicked he shall rain quick burning coals, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.” Psalm 11:6 (margin).29The Great Controversy, 672.FLB 72.5

    While life is the inheritance of the righteous, death is the portion of the wicked. Moses declared to Israel, “I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil.” Deuteronomy 30:15. The death referred to in these scriptures is not that pronounced upon Adam, for all mankind suffer the penalty of his transgression. It is the “second death” that is placed in contrast with everlasting life.30The Great Controversy, 544.FLB 72.6

    In the cleansing flames the wicked are at last destroyed, root and branch—Satan the root, his followers the branches. The full penalty of the law has been visited; the demands of justice have been met; and heaven and earth, beholding, declare the righteousness of Jehovah.FLB 72.7

    Satan's work of ruin is forever ended. For six thousand years he has wrought his will, filling the earth with woe, and causing grief throughout the universe. The whole creation has groaned and travailed together in pain. Now God's creatures are forever delivered from his presence and temptations.31The Great Controversy, 673.FLB 72.8

    It should be the aim of your life to fit yourself for association with the redeemed, with holy angels, and with Jesus, the world's Redeemer.32The Signs of the Times, April 8, 1889.FLB 72.9
