Dear Reader,

 

I was given a most important and interesting vision early this a.m. concerning another end-time application of Revelation 12:6, as it applies to Ezekiel 20:34-38. Though I have been shown portions of this vision earlier, the part that I was shown this a.m. is the correlation between these the Bible verses (below) related to the woman (the bride—the 144,000) fleeing to the wilderness.

 

In Revelation 13, there is a 42 month period AFTER THE WOUND IS HEALED. The wound is not fully healed until the time that persecution begins and that IS NOT at the same time the Sunday Law first ensues. It is at the time it begins to be enforced.

 

During that time (after the law begins to be enforced) the woman, the bride, the church triumphant, is led into the wilderness for 42 months and that coincides with Ezekiel 20:34-38 and Revelation 12:6 and 14, as follows:

 

34 And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.

 

35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.

 

36 Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD.

 

37 And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant:

 

38 And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.

 

This will not occur immediately at the National Sunday Law. It will occur a certain number of days after the Sunday Law, at which time persecution will begin and that will signal that THE WOUND IS FULLY HEALED. We do not flee to the mountains and deserts immediately at the legislation of the Sunday Law, but move to smaller towns preparatory to fleeing to the mountains when the persecution begins, Testimonies, Vol. 5, 451, 464, 465[RB1] .

 

I was shown in no unmistakable manner that it is by and from the church triumphant (Ezekiel 20:34-38) that the bad are shaken from the Kingdom of heaven (Matt. 13:44 and on), and not from ANY church militant to leave it purged and purified as professing Seventh-day Adventists have thought for decades. The apostate SDA church militant will continue and tell its members to keep Sunday[RB2] . That church has caved in at every major testing time and will do so after the Sunday Law[RB1] .

 

As the woman (true church) was persecuted for centuries in the first debacle of Roman treachery, so she will be persecuted for 1260 literal days in the final persecution AFTER the wound is healed.

 

I was shown that in reapplying Revelation 12:6 and 14, no despite is made to the historic application. The beast that once perpetrated its persecution will do it all again in literal time and this is called the greatest time of trouble ever to visit planet earth.

 

Rev 12:6  And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days.

 

Rev 12:14  And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. (42 months, 3 1/2 years AFTER THE WOUND IS HEALED, Rev. 13.

 

Rev 13:3   And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

 

Rev 13:4  And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

 

Rev 13:5  And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.  

 

Rev 13:6  And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

 

Rev 13:7  And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.     

 

Rev 13:8  And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

 

Rev 13:9  If any man have an ear, let him hear.

 

Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus ChristI was shown that professing Seventh-day Adventists have misinterpreted Ellen White’s statements about prophetic time (day for a year time) being no more.  Some, such as Vance Ferrell, have taught that all prophecy is prophetic time or day for a year time, but that is not the case. There are some prophesies that are repeated in LITERAL time and some prophesies that have never before been fulfilled which are literal as regards time.

 

The time lines remaining in Scripture are not tests as SDA’s were tested in 1844. That is what Ellen White meant about not being TESTED concerning definite time. That is how she should be interpreted on the time issue, because there are definite times mentioned in Revelation. There is the ONE HOUR AND FIVE MONTHS, as well as 42 MONTHS AFTER THE WOUND IS HEALED. These are definite and literal time lines in Revelation which are yet to be fulfilled. Thus, Vance Ferrell, Michaels, and others who have denounced any further time-lines are not in line with Scripture. They defy the following verses of the Bible, and by so doing prove themselves false prophets, though Vance has done much to warn God’s people. He is wrong on the time issue and he is wrong concerning a correct response to unpardonable sin apostasy. He does not operate according to the PREFIGURE of A.D. 27-70, when all who were to be saved were gathered out of apostate “Jerusalem,” now paralleled by the apostate, New Movement SDA church militant.

 

Ellen White said that some prophesies will be repeated[RB3] .  Daniel 8 qualifies twice within the chapter that it applies to the time of the end. Daniel 11 does the same. See verses 35 and 40. The historic applications of Daniel 8, though valid, hardly apply to the time of the end. I think of the Alexandrian conquerings of Media and Persia for example. The current application of the He-goat to the western power of America today, with four Naval bases off the coast of Greece, is more apropos to an end-time fulfillment which is fulfilling right before our very eyes! Alexandra did touch the ground, but America can do it without touching the ground. I refer to Daniel 8:5.

 

Here are examples of literal time prophesies that are yet future in their fulfillment:

 

Rev 9:5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment [was] as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.

 

Rev 9:10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power [was] to hurt men five months.

 

Rev 17:12  And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

 

Rev 18:10  Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

 

Rev 18:17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

 

Rev 18:19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

 

Note that the following time from of 42 months is AFTER the wound is healed:

 

 Rev 13:1  And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. 

 

 Rev 13:2  And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

 

 Rev 13:3  And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. 

 

 Rev 13:4  And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 

 

 Rev 13:5  And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.

 

God bless,

 [RB1]

     "As the approach of the Roman armies was a sign to the disciples of the impending destruction of Jerusalem, so may this apostasy be a sign to us that the limit of God's forbearance is reached, that the measure of our nation's iniquity is full, and that the angel of mercy is about to take her flight, never to return. The people of God will then be plunged into those scenes of affliction and distress which prophets have described as the time of Jacob's trouble. The cries of the faithful, persecuted ones ascend to heaven. And as the blood of Abel cried from the ground, there are voices also crying to God from martyrs' graves, from the sepulchers of the sea, from mountain caverns, from convent vaults: "How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost Thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?" {5T 451.2}

 

It is no time now for God's people to be fixing their affections or laying up their treasure in the world. The time is not far distant, when, like the early disciples, we shall be forced to seek a refuge in desolate and solitary places. As the siege of Jerusalem by the Roman armies was the signal for flight to the Judean Christians, so the assumption of power on the part of our nation in the decree enforcing the papal sabbath will be a warning to us. It will then be time to leave the large cities, preparatory to leaving the smaller ones for retired homes in secluded places among the mountains. And now, instead of seeking expensive dwellings here, we should be preparing to move to a better country, even a heavenly. Instead of spending our means in self-gratification, we should be studying to economize. Every talent lent of God should be used to His glory in giving the warning to the world. God has a work for His colaborers to do in the cities. Our missions must be sustained; new missions must be opened. To carry forward this work successfully will require no small outlay. Houses of worship are needed, where the people may be invited to hear the truths for this time. For this very purpose, God has entrusted a capital to His stewards. Let not your property be tied up in worldly enterprises, so that this work shall be hindered. Get your means where you can handle it for the benefit of the cause of God. Send your treasures before you into heaven. {5T 464.3}

 

 [RB2]"The Lord has a controversy with his professed people in these last days. In this controversy men in responsible positions will take a course directly opposite to that pursued by Nehemiah. They will not only ignore and despise the Sabbath themselves, but they will try to keep it from others by burying it beneath the rubbish of custom and tradition. In churches and in large gatherings in the open air, ministers, will urge upon the people the necessity of keeping the first day of the week." E.G. White, Review and Herald, Vol. 1, p. 405, col. 3.

 

Decades ago when the Russian government decided that all school children should attend school on Sabbath, SDA leaders capitulated and told its members to comply with Caesar in lieu of God, instead of going underground as all true SDA’s did at that time. 

 

In the prefigure (GC p. 25) of the first fulfillment of Ezekiel 9, A.D. 27-70, a literal apostate sanctuary (Temple) was destroyed. Ellen White said that there will be another LITERAL FULFILLMENT of Ezekiel 9. Any LITERAL fulfillment would have to involve a literal apostate Sanctuary of professing “Jerusalem,” as was the case in A.D. 70, must be intact to be destroyed. The SDA church militant will keep going after the Sunday Law, to fulfill that requirement. Judgment LITERALLY begins at His LITERAL Sanctuary, Testimonies, Vol. 5, 211, those who have been privileged with great light. Judgment begins at the house of God.

 

 

 [RB3]We have no time to lose. Troublous times are before us. The world is stirred with the spirit of war. Soon the scenes of trouble spoken of in the prophecies will take place. The prophecy in the eleventh of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Much of the history that has taken place in fulfillment of this prophecy will be repeated. In the thirtieth verse a power is spoken of that "shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant." [Verses 31-36, quoted.] {13MR 394.1}

 

  The same spirit is seen today that is represented in Revelation 6:6-8. History is to be repeated. That which has been will be again.--Letter 65, 1898, pp. 6-9, 12. (To Brethren Griggs and Howe, August 23, 1898.) {9MR 7.4}
