LEARNING ABOUT THE FUTURE
One of the most earth-shattering of our discoveries was a mystery that
we unlocked that bears cataclysmic significance to everyone. It
concerns the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Since the Seventh-day
Adventist Church, as we mentioned, is being constantly attacked by
these strange people, they go into history in order to pick at every
fault that it had. Most of these are, naturally, deceptions: much of
their complaints against it we show that Rome did much worse against
the same complaints they make. In response to this, they get calm and
do everything but tell us that Rome is exempt from their quarrels.
But something really strange happened before the beginning of the
Seventh-day Adventist movement that the strange people took every
advantage of. Before Seventh-day Adventists was a movement called the
Millerite Movement. A farmer by the name of William Miller, began to
read and investigate the prophecies dealing with the last days in the
bible. He stumbled upon some very specific last day prophecies in the
book of Daniel, and from them came to the conclusion that Jesus was
coming back to the earth around the year 1844. Several others from
different persuasions and different parts of the world came to similar
conclusions, for example the Jew, Joseph Wolfe, then Edward Irving and
the Jesuit, Manuel De La Cunza. Members from different mainline
denominations were very impressed, and, upon accepting William
Miller's ideas, they came to be called, "the Millerites."
William Miller startled congregations with his findings which grew
into a notable movement. After time, the churches rejected what
William Miller had to say and persecuted all those who accepted
William Miller's teachings. That's when the Millerite Movement was
formed. The popular churches claimed that no man knows the day nor
the hour of Christ's return. They covered their ears, and anyone
within the mainline Christian denominations who believed that Christ
was coming back to the earth were defrocked from membership. For a
time only the Millerites were teaching that Christ was coming back.
The others disbelieved, some later claiming they did believe He was
coming back to the earth, but not at the time specified.
It soon became evident that Christ did not return when the Millerites
said that He would. This was a constant point of ridicule today that
the strange people brought against the Seventh-day Adventist Church
where the implications became very serious. The major pioneering
leader of the Adventist movement was a lady by the name of Ellen G.
White. She is believed by Adventists to have the prophetic gift and
to have visions. This lady gave support to the movement, and,
although she never claimed to have had a vision revealing that Jesus
was coming back to the earth in 1844, SHE DID HAVE ONE WHICH CLAIMED
THAT ALL WHO REFUSED TO BELIEVE THE TEACHINGS OF WILLIAM MILLER, WERE
LOST.
It is on this point where we were sorely attacked. How can God give
anyone a vision claiming that all who disbelieve the prophecies of a
man that turned out to be incorrect are lost? It wound up that it was
on this point that we were surprisingly vindicated. We actually
proved to people observing on the internet that the vision was
correct! Our enemies could not contest it. It was not the Millerites
who made the worst blunder of that time. It was all the other
churches. We proved how that's the way heaven sees it, and how the
blunder they made back then was so bad, that the repercussions remain
to this day.
If you want to learn the future you would need to use the scriptures.
If you do that, you are going to have to also ultimately reference the
mysterious last book of the bible, the book of Revelation, sometime.
This book interconnects with the book of Daniel and many others
especially from the Old Testament. All the churches told the
Millerites that they were in error, and that Christ was not coming
back at least when they specified. The Millerites noticed that their
beliefs were widely opposed. They therefore wanted all others to get
into the study of the prophecies in order to show them their error
FROM THE PROPHECIES. The other churches, feeling it was impossible to
show the Millerites that they were wrong using the prophecies, refused
to do this. Instead they just replied that no man knows the day nor
the hour of Christ's return (Matthew 24:36). But then they did
something worse: they began to teach that the book of Revelation is
an incomprehensible mystery. They discouraged any study of the
prophesies. This was a gross blunder that cost them everything!
This teaching is easily refuted in the first chapter of the book of
Revelation, which says:
Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to
show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he
sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus
Christ, and of all things that he saw.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this
prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the
time is at hand.
This proves there is a message there that people can AND MUST
understand, and this rebuts what all the other churches proclaimed
back in the 1830s and 1840s. It shows what Jesus was saying: the
bible has a singular story and all are responsible to find out what it
says. No matter how complex the message or how much conflicting
argument there is about it, Jesus shows that we must still find out
exactly what the messages say and mean. Although it takes time and
patience, He give us no excuse.
But then something really ominous is found at the other pole of the
book of Revelation. Right at the end of it are these warning words:
Rev. 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the
prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God
shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this
prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and
out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this
book.
At the time, the other churches were saying that the book of
Revelation is an incomprehensible mystery. They were saying that no
true message within it can be found. They discouraged their members
from studying it or giving it any attention. They therefore blocked
people from understanding the messages within it: they wound up
taking away from its message. This discovery was made by Brother Ted
McMillan in about 1998. No other even Adventist discovered this
before. There is a slightly more targeted explanation of this on the
website.
It is not that God supports errors. Another similar situation
happened in the days of Jesus. The very Disciples of Christ were
teaching that Jesus was going to establish a kingdom of glory in their
day. They both believed and taught that at that time Christ was going
to free the Jews from the Romans. Even John the Baptist believed
this. When John the Baptist was in jail, he sent a message to Jesus
asking Him, "Art thou he that should come, or do we look for
another?" (Matt. 11:3). Viewing Jesus in His humble attire and with
no sign of any kingly mission, John the Baptist wound up having
doubts. Jesus' reply contained no sign of a correction to John the
Baptist for his misconception of Christ's mission. He replied:
4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and show John again those
things which ye do hear and see:
5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are
cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have
the gospel preached to them.
6 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
The reply was basically: TRUST ME! Our conclusion was that God was
tolerant with people who may have had misconceptions if that
misconception caused them to deeply repent of their sins, thinking
that the return of Christ was imminent. In both cases, of the
Disciples of Christ and the Millerites, the issue was over the Coming
of Christ and the end of the world. In both cases that belief in the
imminent coming caused them to repent of their sins and to seek to
save the lost to the greatest extent!
THE SECRET RAPTURE THEORY...
First generated by the Jesuit Francisco Ribera, (1537-1591) then
accepted by John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) and then popularized through
Cyrus Scoffield, (1843-1921) who put his notes in the Scoffield
Reference Bible:
Darbyism taught Pre-tribulationism, or that Christ will come before
the expected Great Tribulation to secretly rapture His people from the
earth. They therefore taught that it is not necessary to study or
understand the last 18 chapters of the book of Revelation because the
"Church" will not be here during its fulfillment. When the "Church"
disappears, then the tribulation of seven years begins.
It just so happened that while we were struggling with those strange
people on the internet, they were telling us that we had to give up
our distinctive beliefs about doctrine and prophecy in order to accept
the "pure" and "simple" gospel, and unite with all the other churches:
unite with the Evangelical Movement, unite with the Ecumenical
Movement. They worked to discourage us from studying the Revelation.
They told us it was not needed since we already have Christ and it
doesn't save us. They told us it was "speculative" and that the death
of Christ removes the need for any special messages that divides the
Christian community. They told us we had an interest in these
prophecies because we just want to think ourselves as special and
superior to OUR FELLOW Christian brothers and sisters in Christ. They
presented some kind of a jealousy gospel. After they were shown the
warnings to anyone who dares to discourage its study, although they
could not argue off the terrible implications, they still maintained
that no one should even study it because it would dissuade everyone
from joining with all the other churches. They were telling us we
cannot unite with them while considering prophecy to be important. Of
course, true Adventists do not care to unite with the other churches
neither politically nor administratively. They were always taught
that all such movements were dangerous and would lead to the
establishment of the kingdom of the Antichrist in the last days. But
now the Adventist Church is changing due to illegitimate revolution.
More and more the leaders of the Adventist Church are pushing to
change ever-standing position documented in the old books of the
Adventist Church.
Question: Why then did the bible tell us there are grave consequences
to ignoring the message found in the scriptures that point to the
events of the last days?
Answer: It warns of the worst time of terror and bloodshed just ahead
of us, showing people how to find a way of escape. It reveals details
about the Second Coming of the Lord that most of the world and church
do not understand that will also cost them dearly.
Numerous times in the history of the earth terrible crises and
disasters took place. The carnage during these incidents were so bad
that Atheists even looked down, shook their heads and proclaimed there
was no God. "How can a loving God allow such tragedies?"
The worst time of terror is now about to take place involving the
worst carnage ever in the history of the earth. This time the Lord
wants to make it plain to the world that He has already provided a
means where they can at least be informed about these events. The
days of saying, "I am a citizen of the United States of America.
Those things will never touch me!" will soon no longer be true. It
will take place mostly through betrayal from people whom the world
will regard as good, good Christians and friends who want a New World
Order. The Lord will not intervene to stop it. It WILL come! The
governments of the world will force a terrible ultimatum and dilemma
upon their citizens to do certain things that will arouse the fierce
anger of the Lord: mostly the persecution and killing off of His own
people. Soon all who capitulate to the demands of the governments of
the world will pay dearly in eternity. Staged acts of terror will
especially hit highly populated areas and kill off most of the
inhabitants of the world. This will be done as one of the mandates of
the New World Order: the world is too overcrowded. As these and many
other acts of terror escalate, evidence will be staged to implicate
innocent people as being the cause. Many true biblical Christians
will be put to death because they will be framed. We are already
conditioned to accept this by being trained not to check anything out
because it is all too confusing. We are being conditioned to merely
believe in every case that the official story of events is the only
one we must accept. The world's leaders will literally destroy the
world through staging bio-terror, massive food poisoning and other
methods of depopulation and stage evidence to point elsewhere as the
cause. They will also make a tragic difference by freely misusing
nuclear weapons against the global population. They can't do it now
because certain people will stop them. They don't have free access to
do anything they want, or even misuse nuclear weapons because of these
people. The people who mostly would stop them are dying out through
diverse means, and especially THROUGH WAR!
