Matthew Chapter 24
VERSE 35 and 36 “Heaven and earth [the present ecclesiastical and social order] will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away. But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only.”
Compare this with the words of Mark (13:32, 33)...
JESUS ALONE THE RANSOMER
It would not be correct to say that the scapegoat class atones for sin and thus make it possible for a certain part of humanity to be brought forth from the tomb. The tomb represents the penalty upon Adam for his transgression, and this penalty has been inherited by all...
Account Paid in Full
In our previous post we alluded to the fact that the Great Company will play a pivotal role in God’s plan, that it is his purpose to use them to compensate for the willful sins of humanity, sins committed against evident light.
“Divine Justice must be fully satisfied...
The Great Company, continued
Now we understand that some may have difficulty in accepting the fact that the Great Company is a heavenly class (especially among our JW friends), it appears some do not fully comprehend the significance of the surrender of one’s restituional life rights.
We...
The Great Company, continued
In the tabernacle picture, “the scapegoat was charged with the iniquities of the children of Israel, but was not put to death, and the blood was not taken into the Most Holy. This shows that the scapegoat was not a sacrifice for sins. Instead, the scapegoat was...
The Great Company
“Our thought is that Elisha typifies two classes: first he typifies those associated with the Elijah class (the Great Company); and secondly after the taking of Elijah up in the whirlwind and re-crossing the Jordan (picturing the death of the Great Company) he becomes a type...
Matthew Chapter 24
Verse 33, 34 “So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, this generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.” (KJV)
If we were to apply the “generation” being spoken of here as to either...
Matthew Chapter 24
The margin of the NKJV interprets Matt 24:33 as:
So you also, when you see all these things, know that He is near—at the doors!
The following are several translations who interpret it so:
“In the same way, when you see all these things, you can know his return is very...
Matthew Chapter 24
Verse 34 continued “Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.”
In order to rightly understand who or what generation is being referred to here, several questions need to be addressed.
1) In Verse 33 it says “when...
Left Behind
“Just as in the type it was a prerequisite that Elisha see Elijah being taken, so in the antitype the Great Company will recognize the true Church having departed. The Elisha class will be given rejoicing experiences later, but first there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth (Matt...
Matthew Chapter 24
We continue from our previous post.
Verse 34 “Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.”
What “generation” is being referred to here?
The generation that sees “all these things” (Verse 33)
In Scripture a...
Matthew Chapter 24
As taken from the Book of Matthew (Brother Frank Shallieu)
Verse 32 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.”
The “fig tree” represents the Jewish nation, as shown by several...
Matthew Chapter 24
Proximity of the Kingdom of God
VERSE 32-34 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it (the Kingdom of God--Luke 17:21) is...
“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.” (Rev 8:1)
Adequate consideration having been given to the last events of the Lord’s life at the First Advent, and to the experience of the apostles at that time—these being a basis for...
“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.” (Rev 8:1)
“With the opening of the previous six seals, John witnessed startling events, but when the seventh seal is broken—the last and the most significant of a series because the others...
As was stated previously “Waters are to be separated from waters, people from people” It will not be merely the true Church which is divided, separated, (the “little flock” from the great company), but so too the professing or nominal church. The truths then being espoused by the Lord’s faithful...
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.”
Luke 21 shows clearly that the Church will be complete just prior to the great Time of Trouble...
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...
