14. What memorial did God establish of His creative power?
“Remember _the Sabbath day_, to keep it holy.... _For in six days the Lord
made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is_, and rested the
seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.”
Ex. 20:8-11.
15. What place has the Sabbath in the work of salvation?
“Moreover also I gave them My Sabbaths, to be _a sign_ between Me and
them, that they might know that I am the Lord that _sanctify_ them.” Eze.
20:12.
16. How many are concerned in the judgment?
“For we must _all_ appear before the judgment-seat of Christ; that _every
one_ may receive the things done in his body, _according to that he hath
done, whether it be good or bad_.” 2 Cor. 5:10.
17. What will be the standard in the judgment?
“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he
is guilty of all. For He that said, Do not commit adultery; said also, Do
not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art
become a transgressor of the law. So speak ye, and so do, as they that
shall be judged _by the law of liberty_.” James 2:10-12.
18. In view of the judgment, what exhortation is given?
“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: _Fear God, and keep His
commandments_: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring
every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or
whether it be evil.” Eccl. 12:13, 14.
NOTE.—A comparison of Rev. 14:7 with Eccl. 12:13, 14, suggests
that the way to give glory to God is to keep His commandments, and
that in giving the judgment-hour message, the duty of keeping the
commandments would be emphasized. This is plainly shown in the
description given of the people who are gathered out of every
nation, kindred, tongue, and people as the result of the preaching
of this message, in connection with the other messages which
immediately follow and accompany it. Of this people it is said,
“Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of
Jesus.” Rev. 14:12.

14:6, 7?
“And there followed another angel, saying, _Babylon is fallen, is fallen_,

2. What reason is assigned for the fall of Babylon?

excellency, shall be _as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah_.” Isa.
