Continued from previous post Before we begin once again addressing Sister Ann’s statements we should like for the sake of those unfamiliar with this prophecy to fill in the blanks so to speak returning to the verses we skipped in our last post Verses 20-24. Verse 20 “There shall arise in his...

Continued from previous post Sister Ann states: The eleventh chapter is complicated as it becomes a back and forth confrontation between the two countries now designated as king of the North or king of the South. The last King of the North, Antiochus the 4th, did "not stand, for schemes" were...

As was stated in our previous post this was a discussion we had on Chapter 11 of Daniel with a member of another forum some time back. Hence forth we shall refer to this forum member as Sister Ann. Understand it is not our intention here to find fault, but rather to seek for truth, all of us...

THE HIGHWAY OF HOLINESS While the special hope of the Gospel age is so surpassingly glorious, and the way to it, is correspondingly difficult --narrow, hedged in by hardships and dangers at every step--so that few find it, and even fewer still run so as to obtain the great prize at its end, the...

"THE NARROW WAY TO LIFE" continued In the beginning of the Millennial age, those who now walk the narrow way will have gained the great prize for which they ran, immortality; and being thus clothed with the divine nature and power, they will be prepared for the great work of restoring and...

"THE NARROW WAY TO LIFE" continued From 1 Tim. 6:14-16 we learn that the immortal or divine nature was originally the possession of divinity only. We read: "He [Jesus] in his time [the Millennial age] will show who is the blessed and only potentate--the King of kings and Lord of lords, who only...

"THE NARROW WAY TO LIFE" Our Master tells us that it is because of the narrowness (the difficulty) of the narrow way that the many prefer to remain on the broad (way or) road to destruction. "Strait [difficult] is the gate and narrow is the way that leads unto life, and few there are that find...

The reason we bring this subject up is because many are still confused as what the Apostle referred to when he spoke of those who are of “the way”. “Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked letters from him to the...

Revelation Chapter 8 The First Trumpet VERSE 7 (NAU) “The first sounded, and there came hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.” The one symbol...

Revelation Chapter 8 One Third of the Trees Burned Up So how do we apply what we have learned to the symbols of the first trumpet? We find that one of the results of the truth being cast into the earth, or being misused to gain power over others resulted in the burning up of a third of the...

Revelation Chapter 8 The First Trumpet As we had briefly outlined in our previous posts the early church had the beginnings of the wrong attitude which eventually led to the oppressive false church state system, composed of the beast and the image. So for that reason we think that the very...

Revelation Chapter 8 The First Trumpet One Third Taken Away = .666 etc. Another reason for the conclusion that this trumpet is showing us something bad, was an interesting observation that was made in regard to the adjective “one third”, that this and the next three trumpets have as a part of...

Revelation Chapter 8 The First Trumpet Having taken a brief look at the first interpretive viewpoint we would now like to examine the second interpretive viewpoint, which interprets the trumpets as showing how the false church was corrupting the truth. VERSE 7 (NAU) “The first sounded, and...

Revelation Chapter 8 The First Trumpet “In most churches (who follow the futurist viewpoint) they view the trumpets as something that is still future. The reason for this is because they are looking at the symbols in too literal a manner thus they can’t imagine how they could have been...

Habakkuk Chapter 1 continued VERSE 12 “Are you not from everlasting, O Lord my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O Lord, You have appointed them for judgment; O Rock, You have marked them for correction.” Verse 12, a paragraph break, starts to express thoughts of the Great Company, a...

The Great Time of Trouble Habakkuk Chapter 1 continued VERSE 9 “They all come for violence (destruction, anarchy); their faces are set like the east wind. They gather captives like sand.” The New Living Translation states it thusly: “On they come, all bent on violence. Their hordes advance...
