13. Where
Do The Seals And Trumpets Begin And End
This afternoon we shall see where each Seal and Trumpet begins and ends.
Let us first read the description of the first five seals:
14. The
Chronological Setting of
The Revelation Chapter By Chapter---The
Summary
Our past studies have shown that all the books of the Bible meet and
end in The Revelation (Acts of the Apostles, p. 585); that The Revelation
covers the entire history of mankind.
15. That
Which Is To Be During The Sixth Trumpet While Probation Still
Lasts
The subject of our study is found in Revelation, chapters 10 and 11.
We shall begin with---Rev. 10:1---
16. Satan's
Triple Defeat Brings The "Time Of Trouble Such
As Never Was"
We all somewhat agree, I know, that this woman of Revelation 12 is symbolical
of the Church; that the Dragon is symbolical of Satan; and that the child
represents Christ. But inasmuch as we may not agree as to whether the woman
is symbolical of the Old Testament church or of the New or of both, it
is essential that we study to see eye to eye.
17. A
World Government And The Only People Who Will Not Bow
Down to It
The world government which is to develop from the "League of Nations"
and the "United Nations," is not actually to be absolutely universal, and
there are still to be "two worlds," but rather than there being Capitalism
and Communism, they are to be those who worship the beast and his image,
and those who worship God and have their names written in the Book. The
latter are the only people who will not bow down to the future world government.
18.
THE
FINAL WORLD GOVERNMENT COMMUNISTIC OR CAPITALISTIC-WHICH?
If we have the dollar when we need it, also are certain from day to
day of our clothing, food, and a bed to sleep in, we should feel rich.
We should feel as if we had a million dollars in the bank. Yes, if we seek
first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and mind the Lord's business
being slothful in nothing and conscientious in everything then we shall
have all these added unto us (Matt. 6:31-33).
19. Baptism
And The Lord Our Righteousness-- The Gate To The Church
"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you
in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive
the gift of the Holy Ghost." Acts 2:38.
The ticket to baptism, we see, is repentance. Baptism is therefore the
gate to the Church. Then follows the gift of the Holy Ghost.
20. THE
LAODICEANS PERISH WITHOUT THE "MESSAGE TO THE LAODICEANS"
"In the time when His wrath shall go forth in judgments, these humble,
devoted followers of Christ will be distinguished from the rest of the
world by their soul anguish, which is expressed in lamentation and weeping,
reproofs and warnings. While others try to throw a cloak over the existing
evil, and excuse the great wickedness everywhere prevalent, those who have
a zeal for God's honor and a love for souls will not hold their peace to
obtain favor of any. . . ."-Testimonies, Vol. 5, p. 210.
21. Children
Born To A Lewd Mother Bring Peace
And Happiness In The Home
Our subject for today is found in Hosea, chapters one and two. The first
and most important thing to ascertain about these chapters is the time
in which their prophetic import unfolds. To find this out, we shall read:
Hos. 2:18--
22. THE
GREAT PARADOX OF THE AGES
"...Those who have rendered supreme homage to 'science falsely so called'
will not be the leaders then. Those who have trusted to intellect, genius,
or talent will not then stand at the head of rank and file. They did not
keep pace with the light. Those who have proved themselves unfaithful will
not then be entrusted with the flock..."---"Testimonies," Vol. 5, p. 80.
23. Keeping
The Commandments The Stony Heart And The Carnal Mind
Our text of Scripture is found in Revelation 22:14, 15.
Here we see that only those who do His commandments have the right to
enter the City. When the work of salvation is finished and the people gathered
home, they will be those who will still keep the commandments of God even
after sin is eradicated. Sin nevertheless cannot be eradicated while the
law is transgressed, for the transgression of it is sin. . . .
24. THE
PEOPLE THAT HARDLY STAND A CHANCE
The text of our subject for this afternoon is found in Proverbs 29:18.
At the outset of our study let us ascertain to what extent this scripture
has been fulfilled. In the days of Moses, you remember, the Egyptians had
no vision, but the Hebrews did have a vision and a prophet to interpret
the vision. With this gift among them when they came against the Red Sea
the Hebrews were preserved, but the Egyptians perished. "The wise man,'
you see was not guessing when he said "Where there is no vision, the people
perish."
