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...

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)...
