The church appeals to the strong arm of civil power, and, in this work, papists and Protestants will unite. As the movement for Sunday enforcement becomes more bold and decided, the law will be invoked against commandment keepers. God's people will be threatened with fines and imprisonment, and some will be offered positions of influence, and other rewards and advantages, as inducements to renounce their faith. But their steadfast answer is: "Show us from The Word Of God our error" The same plea that was made by Martin Luther under similar circumstances. Those who are arraigned before the courts make a strong vindication of the truth, and some who hear them are led to take their stand to keep all the commandments of God. Thus light will be brought before thousands who otherwise would know nothing of these truths. (GC 607.1) It's true in our own strength we cannot vindicate God but through the power of God when we are faithful, that's a vindic ation of the Truth Jesus Christ.
