Matthew Chapter 24
VERSE 31 continued, “And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
“And he [the Son of man] shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet.” Since a...
Matthew Chapter 24
VERSE 31 “And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
The Sinaitic MS omits the word "sound", which we believe to be in harmony with the general teachings of...
"We are being more and more impressed with the closing features of the Elijah and the Elisha type. More and more we are impressed that Elijah’s smiting of the river Jordan, the waters thereof being thus divided, pictures a mighty work yet to be accomplished, and apparently in the very near...
WHAT ELIJAH’S MANTLE MAY SIGNIFY
"We answer; we believe that the peoples of earth, the public in general, are to be judged by the truth. The people are represented by waters. It would seem that in some way the people are to be judged and tested; and that a division of public sentiment is to be...
It is expected that by this time (i.e. during the Hour of Trial) that the great signs and miraculous wonders first begun in the Church of England (the two horned beast which came up out of the earth, Rev 13:11, 13) would have spread throughout all of Christendom and that the False Prophet would...
In our previous post we mention how Elijah would come prior to the great and dreadful day of the Lord (the Day of Vengeance) NOT the literal Elijah, but the antitypical Elijah, the real or greater Elijah the true Church in the flesh and that as such they would fail in their efforts at turning...
The "*sons of the prophets" (theologians) will disbelieve that the Elijah, the true Church has been taken; but upon the class who shall see (the Elisha class who believe it to be so), a double portion of the Elijah spirit comes. No wonder if this class becomes awake to the grandeur and...
Before translating Elijah, the Lord arranged that he should prepare and instruct his successor, and sent him to Elisha as such. (1 Kings 19:16). So, if we have found Elijah to represent the over-comers, the "Bride" or "Body of Christ", we might reasonably infer that Elisha is the representative...
Here we present a side by side comparison of the life of Elijah with the history of the true church to help us more readily see the similarities between the two.
These are striking coincidences, and we believe are not accidental, but with Jesus, we believe that to those (of the Israelite's)...
The history of Elijah the prophet, called in the New Testament Elias, is one full of interest to us, not only because it is a history of a courageous and faithful servant of God, but because we believe that he was also a TYPE, and that, through the medium of his life, God has given us...
In order for us to get a good picture of the third group of individuals who will enter the great tribulation (viz., the Great Company or as some like to refer to them the Tribulation Saints) we will need to back track a bit and establish events leading up to this time.
“Behold, I will send you...
In Part 5 of this study we mentioned three groups of individuals who would enter the great tribulation (specifically the final phase, Armageddon) two of whom would pass through it completely and one who would only go through its opening stages.
1) The Great Company
2) The nation of Israel...
Jacob’s Trouble continued
It is conceivable that many of the great literal occurrences of the Old Testament will have a brief, concentrated, literal, limited application in Israel in Jacob’s Trouble to show it is the God of nature and the God of Israel who is manifesting power.
Remember God’s...
Jacob’s Trouble continued
Once again we note Ezek 38:19, 20 as it describes one of the ways in which God will be revealed during this trouble.
“For in my jealousy and in the fire of my wrath have I spoken, Surely in that day there shall be a great shaking in the land of Israel; So that the...
Jacob’s Trouble continued
Ezekiel expresses it eloquently: "And it shall come to pass at the same time, when Gog shall come against the land of Israel, saith the Lord God, that my fury shall come up in my face. For in my jealousy, and in the fire of my wrath, have I spoken, surely, in that day...
The Transfiguration Scene (Matt 17:1-13, Parallel Account, Luke 9:28-36)
Little did the disciples imagine that our Lord's statement: “Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” (Matt 16:28), would be...
Now our friend Hammer Stone goes on to quote Hebrews Chapter 1 viz.
“For to which of the angels did He ever say, "Thou art My Son, today I have begotten thee?"…"But to which of the angels has He ever said, 'Sit at My right hand, until I make Thine enemies a footstool for Thy feet?' Are they...
Unfortunately many being blinded by prejudice are unable to see past the colored lenses of the creeds they wear; they approach the scriptures carrying way too much “baggage” most of which was derived in the dark ages through the doctrines and precepts of men. This baggage clouds their judgment...
“For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with THE VOICE of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.” (1 Thess 4:16)
Here the Apostle Paul connects this utterance with Christ’s own words concerning that event, “the dead shall hear THE...
“At that time Michael shall stand up, the great prince who stands watch over the sons of YOUR people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that time. And at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone who is found written in the book.”...
