Ellen G. White
COME OUT OF BABYLON

«“Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”
— Revelation 18:4, KJV»

Notice the language carefully: “My people.”

God has people who are still inside systems of error and false worship. His call is not merely to condemn them, but to call them out.

Why?

Because God says, “that ye be not partakers of her sins.”

Remaining in error when God has revealed the truth makes us participants in that error. Therefore, the final gospel appeal is a call to separation from sin, false worship, and every teaching that contradicts the Word of God.

The issue is not denomination, personality, tradition, or popularity.

The issue is: What does God say?

Revelation gives us both sides:

Revelation 18:4 — COME OUT.
Come out of Babylon and do not partake of her sins.

Revelation 22:14 — OBEY.
Blessed are those who do His commandments.

And Revelation 14:12 shows the people who stand faithful at the end:

“The commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.”

This is not salvation by works.

This is faith that produces obedience.

Christ is not calling us merely to change our religious label. He is calling us to follow Him completely.

Come out of sin.
Come out of false worship.
Come out of human tradition that contradicts Scripture.
Come fully to Christ.
And by His grace, walk in obedience to His commandments.
