How people will there be a pure church when Jesus comes?

-

the sinners in Zion will be sifted out Selected Messages 2:380 (1886). 

Misrepresentation, will grow into open rebellion 5BC 1106

Many who are now only half converted on the question of meat eating will go from God's people to walk no more with them. {CD 382.1}

a large class who have professed faith in the third angel's message, but have not been sanctified through obedience to the truth, abandon their position and join the ranks of the opposition. The Great Controversy, 608.

 This will have its effect upon the heart of the receiver, and will lead him to exalt the standard and pour forth the straight truth. Some will not bear this straight testimony. They will rise up against it, and this will cause a shaking among God's people.--1T 181 (1857).

Prosperity multiplies a mass of professors. Adversity purges them out of the church.—Testimonies for the Church 4:89 (1876). 

When the shaking comes, by the introduction of false theories, these surface readers, anchored nowhere, are like shifting sand. They slide into any position to suit the tenor of their feelings of bitterness.--TM 112 (1897).

Not having received the love of the truth, they will be taken in the delusions of the enemy; they will give heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils and will depart from the faith.--6T 401 (1900).

The enemy will bring in false theories, such as the doctrine that there is no sanctuary. This is one of the points on which there will be a departing from the faith.--Ev 224 (1905).

One thing is certain: Those Seventh-day Adventists who take their stand under Satan's banner will first give up their faith in the warnings and reproofs contained in the Testimonies of God's Spirit.--3SM 84 (1903).

using the Scriptures to justify a wrong course of action under the perverse working of Lucifer, will confirm men in misunderstanding, and the truth that they need to keep them from wrong practices will leak out of the soul like water from a leaky vessel.--13MR 379, 381 (1904).

Cooking on Sabbath for Seventh-day Adventists - Bible, EGW/SOP, Church Documents Bible Manna in Exodus  “Tomorrow is the rest of the holy Sabbath unto the Lord: bake that which ye will bake today, and seethe that ye will seethe ; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.”  16:27 (NIV)  Nevertheless, some of the people went out on the seventh day to gather it, but they found none.   28  Then the  Lord  said to Moses, “ How long will you [ c ]  refuse to keep my commands  and my instructions?   29  Bear in mind that the  Lord  has given you the Sabbath; that is why on the sixth day he gives you bread for two days. SOP / EGW Those who neglect to prepare for the Sabbath on the sixth day, and who cook food upon the Sabbath, violate the fourth commandment, and are transgressors of God's law .

Sabbath Cooking Excuses Investigated Copyright 2016 Winelfred G. Pasamba Foreword "God means that testing truth shall be brought to the front, and become a subject of examination and discussion, even if it is through the contempt placed upon it. The minds of the people must be agitated. Every controversy, every reproach, every slander, will be God's means of provoking inquiry, and awakening minds that otherwise would slumber."—Testimonies for the Church 5:453. ChS 159.2 This is a very difficult, very shaking, very testing, very new and controversial (for many who are not oriented) topic and I request the readers not go to Chapter 3 & 4 unless they have read Chapter 1 & 2.  If you go directly to Chapter 3, you probably will be highly uncomfortable if you have no testimony of avoiding cooking on the Sabbath. Readers need utter humility and gratitude-to-God, for this material not to offend them.  Love for God must be more than love for food, love for comfo...
