PAROUSIA VS. EPIPHANIA, APOKALUPSIS. Because not heedless, careless, indifferent servants of the King, but faithful and earnest ones, the Watchers have scrutinized every little particular which fell from the lips of him who spoke as never man spoke; and all the messages which he has sent them...

HOW ARE WE TO WATCH? Our watching consists not in looking up into the sky, – “stargazing;” for those who study the Lord’s Word to any purpose soon learn that “the day of the Lord so cometh as [like] a thief in the night,” and that its dawning cannot be discerned with the natural eye. If the...

THE PAROUSIA OF OUR LORD JESUS AND HIS SUBSEQUENT APOKALUPSIS AND EPIPHANIA– AT HIS SECOND ADVENT. – We live at a time when many in the profess church say that the Lord’s second advent is near even at the door, and who claim to be awake and watching, but alas how few of these are truly awake...

If the real object of our Lord’s return could be clearly understood by all of his true people, unquestionably every sincere Christian would be longing and waiting for that event, as the glorious realization of their best hopes and desires, the one without which all others would be valueless...

THE SUPPOSITION THAT HARVEST ENDED IN 1914 A MISTAKE The Pastor next proceeds to show another mistake, that he desired to correct, and it will be seen that if his conclusions are correct, and had been heeded, very much of the confusion and erroneous teaching that has existed since in the Church...

“As for the Harvest being a period of 40 years or if not, how long it might be, this is a matter entirely proper for us to investigate and to discuss. The question is, Is there anything in the Bible that will enable us to determine exactly how long this work of harvesting at the end of the...

As you recall in our first post entitled. “The Voices of the Three Sighs”, Part 1 we mentioned that at the time this article was published in 1900 it was the consciences of the Pastor and those associated with him that the Harvest of the Gospel age, which was believed at the time to be the same...

THE VOICE OF THE THIRD SIGN. (5) Another sign was to be given, the Lord clearly intimating that it would be necessary, and that all of his true people would not hear or heed the "voice" of the first two testimonies. To natural Israel the third sign was the taking of the water from the river...

THE VOICE OF THE SECOND SIGN. (4) The second sign to be given to the Israelites was that of the leprous hand. Hidden in the bosom, when revealed it was leprous; but when hidden again, and revealed a second time, it was whole. Again, we say that the natural Israelite discerned nothing but the...

THE VOICE OF THE FIRST SIGN. (2) At Moses' second presentation to Israel, he did not address them personally and directly, as at the first, God having said to him, "Aaron shall be thy prophet or mouthpiece, and thou shalt be a god unto Aaron." This item of the type would seem to imply just...

“When preparing the lessons relating to Moses and his two presentations of himself to the Israelites, as their deliverer from Egyptian bondage (as shown in our previous two blog post, viz., "Certainly, I will be with thee"), we noted the fact that "these things were written aforetime for our...

“It was at this time (during his time in the wilderness), when Moses was eighty years old, that the Lord sent him to deliver Israel. Perhaps it was not accidental that Moses’ career was thus divided into two equal periods – 40 years of Egyptian training, and rejected; then 40 years‘ absence...

Exod 3:1-12 Moses, at forty years of age, having been schooled in all the learning of the Egyptians, and recognized as mighty in word and in deed… determined to cast in his lot henceforth with the people of God. He renounced his relationship to the king’s family, “refusing to be any longer...

As seen by our previous post, Christ’s death became the offset and cancellation of the legal sentence against man, but it did not and was not intended to remove his degradation. Man’s sentence, recorded in the race, mentally, morally and physically, is still in evidence all about us, and will...

If Christ’s death did not affect the cancellation of man’s sins, wherein lies the fault? Does it imply that the sacrifice was not sufficient to cancel the sins, or does it imply that God has not been just toward the sinners, but has accepted a payment from Jesus and is also requiring a payment...

Would it be correct for us to say that our Lord Jesus by his death canceled the sins of the entire human family, so that there is now no condemnation to any? Answer. – No; this would not be a correct statement. The Scriptural declaration is, “There is now no condemnation to them that are IN...

“And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you today, you will be with Me in Paradise.” As stated in our last post only if the correct punctuation is applied by placing the coma in the correct position, that is after the word “today” can the harmony of the scriptures be maintained. Let us...
