Men nowadays argue that science has long ago proven that it
is impossible for humans and animals to produce offspring.
Such men assume too much, but it is to be expected for the time was not
right for this to be understood. But it now is. I don't know what the big
deal is here. Before the flood the technocrats had scientific abilities that
we cannot match today I believe. Anyone ever read the book the Secrets of the
Lost Races? It gives evidence that they had technology not unlike some we
have today. They have discovered batteries, surgical tools, iron or steel
that would not rust. A necklace was found from a fossil bed which had a small
amulet on it that looked like an airplane. They found that it would have been
aerodynamically sound. Ellen White spoke of things way before her time.
Things that would be upon those upon whom the ends of the world has come. She
tells us about the devils ingenious methods of amalgamation.
See here:
Selected Messages Book 2, page 288, paragraph 2
"....--Christ never planted the seeds of death in the system. Satan planted these
seeds when he tempted Adam to eat of the tree of knowledge which meant
disobedience to God. Not one noxious plant was placed in the Lord's great
garden, but after Adam and Eve sinned, poisonous herbs sprang up. In the
parable of the sower the question was asked the master, "Didst not thou sow
good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?" The master answered,
"An enemy hath done this" (Matt. 13:27, 28). All tares are sown by the evil
one. Every noxious herb is of his sowing, and by his ingenious methods of
amalgamation he has corrupted the earth with tares.
If there is no amalgamation who is responsible for the weeds? Well we can't
put the blame on our Creator. You know that is the devil's method. Foist all
of the blame on the Creator that is Satan plan. He leads poor ignorant souls
into this line of thinking and they lose trust in the only one who can keep
them from falling. Jesus tells us plainly, The master answered, "An enemy
hath done this"
She also talks of amalgamation in a spiritual sense. Notice,
Advent Review and Sabbath Herald, August 23, 1892, paragraph 3
Article Title: Friendship With the World is Enmity With Christ:
Those who profess to be followers of Christ, should be living agencies,
co-operating with heavenly intelligences; but by union with the world, the
character of God's people becomes tarnished, and through amalgamation with
the corrupt, the fine gold becomes dim. When worldly agencies are introduced
into the church, it is evident that Satan is carrying out his devices,
working through those who profess to be followers of Christ, making them
ready at any time to engage with him in disheartening and discouraging those
who are faithful, who would stand wholly on the Lord's side.
Whether spiritual or physical amalgamation the Lord wanted to end it at the
flood.
The Spirit of Prophecy Volume One, page 78, paragraph 2
Chapter Title: The Flood:
Every species of animals which God had created was preserved in the ark. The
confused species which God did not create, which were the result of
amalgamation, were destroyed by the flood.
God in His mercy had tried to prevent the perversions of the old world. But
alas today science has caught up with prophecy again.
Luk 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days
of the Son of man.
If any generation could understand and explain this amalgamation thing it
should be us.
The Spirit of Prophecy Volume One, page 69, paragraph 1
Chapter Title: The Flood:
But if there was one sin above another which called for the destruction of
the race by the flood, it was the base crime of amalgamation of man and beast
which defaced the image of God, and caused confusion everywhere. God purposed to destroy by a flood that powerful, long-lived race that had corrupted their ways before him. He would not suffer them to live out the days of their
natural life, which would be hundreds of years. It was only a few generations
back when Adam had access to that tree which was to prolong life. After his
disobedience he was not suffered to eat of the tree of life and perpetuate a
life of sin. In order for man to possess an endless life he must continue to
eat of the fruit of the tree of life. Deprived of that tree, his life would gradually wear out.
Since the flood, there has been amalgamation of man and beast, as may be seen
in the almost endless varieties of species of animals, and in certain races
of men.
As for races of men that are amalgamated. This is a mystery to most of us.
We are still in for some shocking aberrations for who will stay the hands of
an unregenerate race who insist on pushing the envelope of reason and moral
decency. Genetic engineering may produce yet some Frankensteins.
Even in our own institutions we have tried to amalgamate man and beast by
putting a baboon heart into a human being.
So you see we have to deal with:
1. Genetics Amalgamation
2. Organ Amalgamation
3. Spiritual Amalgamation
What ever the case there is a God in heaven who counts that hairs of our
heads and is not willing that any should perish.
