Who is running the world?

We all know that money doesn’t make the world go around. Love does. The two polar opposite ideologies are competing for total human supremacy. It’s the New World Order of a resurrected Cain and Nimrod, and the burgeoning Jesuit Vatican power versus the Old World Order established by the God of Noah and Abraham, Moses and David, Paul and John. But who is behind the NWO? BlackRock and Vanguard? And who is behind the OWO? God and nature? And how will the war finish? In favor of the NWO or the OWO? The following is my response to a friend who sent me a link to an article, “Who owns the world?”

In the last email to explain the power that the Bible says is over the centralization of such tremendous wealth today, and why, I quoted from Revelation 9, which was the 5th and 6th trumpets. So I would like to explain myself concerning all the scripture text that I used, and some of the prophetic symbology.

The way my study, and the Lord’s leading, has taught me to understand the trumpets is that they began when the Advent movement started. All the trumpets happen during the 7th seal. Really they constitute almost the whole of the 7th seal events, the last of which are coming to a close today.

  The 6th seal (not the 6th trumpet) is seen in Revelation 6:12-17, and the 7th seal is seen in Revelation 8, with an intermission between of Revelation 7 to introduce an important preparation for Christ’s return—a permanent seal that would necessitate a long process and several generations before being able to receive it. The sealing would require a time period during which the trumpet’s locusts would seek to wear out the faith of the saints of the Most High.

  The 6th seal was composed of the early Adventist signs, the first three of which occurred just prior to the Millerite movement, and the fourth during that movement. The 6th seal signs were the Lisbon earthquake in 1755, the Dark Day and the moon turned scarlet in 1780, and the falling of the stars in 1833. Then the 6th seal shows Jesus returning in power and glory. 

  But, Jesus didn’t come. He tarried because no one was able to endure His powerful glory. A time of sealing and marking must take place, which we call the Investigative Judgment. In order to know who was who in the book of life, an angelic investigation of books was needed for the dead saints, but more than that was necessary for the living saints. A test must be brought to truly reveal the hearts and consciences of the living saints before He could return with His eternal reward.

During this last time when Satan would be enraged because only a short time would be left for his frustrated total subjugation of humanity, and he would make his deceptions the greatest against mankind, a test for the 7th seal’s sealing or marking would cull out the professing 99 sheep who needed no repentance from the real born-again repentant sheep. And, of course for that, the Law, with its reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness, must be exalted to make sin appear exceedingly sinful. Simultaneously, Satan would be loosed to exalt his lawlessness to extinguish the conviction of exceeding sinfulness. Those who would be attracted to Christ’s divine influences for good or Satan’s demonic influences for evil would compose the sealed and marked.

  What we see in the 7th seal by its 7 trumpets is all about this most solemn testing time that would come to the world. Satan’s final push with all of his atheistic theories and poisonous psychologies would take the Protestant Americans far, far, very far away from their Reformation beginnings. Satan would remove Protestantism so far away that they would cease to remember anything about the Reformation or their duty and accountability to the God of the Reformation. They would even forget the covenant that the Protestant church made with their fathers’ God. Over and over again in The Great Controversy the Lord’s messenger addressed the United States and Americans as Protestant America. She would distinguish the modern secular, atheistic America with its humbler, holier past, as having descended from, and still connected to, the Reformation. Our country has done no differently than the ancient northern kingom of Israel. Even though they bore the original name of the nation that Jesus delivered from Egypt, the ten tribes of Israel had completely divorced themselves from their past as a holy nation and kingdom of priests under Moses and Joshua. The many denominations of the investigative judgment Protestant America have done identically to its ancient counterpart in sacred history.

  So the 7th seal’s first three trumpets show the denominations being sent a series of tests: the test of the Millerite message, the seventh day Sabbath test, and the test of the Law’s immutability requiring obedience to the whole Law. Because they would not repent of their failure of the first of these three tests, they were likely to fail the next, and then the next, until their candlestick would be taken away. But, before these tests would be sent the 7th seal first gives us a picture of the heavenly sanctuary to be cleansed. Jesus is the Angel with an abundance of incense like Aaron in Leviticus 16 preparing to go into the Most Holy Place with two heaping hands full of incense (verse 12).

Likewise, the Angel in the 7th seal puts an abundance of incense in the censor and puts fire to it from the golden altar of incense that was before the throne of God, and a cloud of incense goes up before God. But prior to going in to cleanse the Most Holy sanctuary of the Most High, Jesus appears to break from the type in Leviticus 16:8, with which Adventists are all familiar. Rather, though in keeping with verse 6, Jesus first must cleanse Himself and His house (His priestly family and the Levites, which are His Seventh-day Adventist pastors and people), “And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.” Later, once the 144,000 remnant Adventists are sealed, Jesus will go in to atone for the great multitude which no man can number that are sprinkled around the world, and cleanse their sinful record from the sanctuary.

So to start the symbolic first trumpet Jesus throws the censor to earth. He casts it down onto the heavenly floor, and out of the sky on earth fall the ultra-purified coals from God’s altar of incense and its fire, along with His sweet incense and His Son’s own blood. Paul refers to the first symbolic trumpet’s Old Testament type in his letter to the Jewish Christians. “But into the second [veil] went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people.” (Heb. 9:7).

The first trumpet blows and (the symbolic third part of trees), that is, the worst of the pastors, the most rebellious mockers of William Miller’s message , were burned up, and all their flocks (the symbolic grain) were burned up too, as they followed their blind leaders over the cliff. But the rest of the leadership, the strong Adventists who remained faithful during the Great Disappointment, were anointed by the same incense and fire. They were chosen out of apostatized Protestantism. A new church was born that would replace the Protestants as stewards of divine light to the world.

Next the second trumpet blows and a burning mountain representing Mount Sinai is thrown into the sea, the whole picture representing the Sabbath commandment rejected and then the whole Law of God abrogated by the Protestant denominational leadership.

Having rejected the whole Law and its condemnation of sin, they rejected God the Lawmaker and Christ the Law enforcer. Therefore they would be beholden to reject the new testimony of Jesus given to the newly anointed church. And therefore their new lawless gospel would be transformed into a spiritualistic gospel, as Ellen White later wrote concerning the final crisis in our near future,

“As spiritualism more closely imitates the nominal Christianity of the day, it has greater power to deceive and ensnare. Satan himself is converted, after the modern order of things. He will appear in the character of an angel of light. Through the agency of spiritualism, miracles will be wrought, the sick will be healed, and many undeniable wonders will be performed. And as the spirits will profess faith in the Bible, and manifest respect for the institutions of the church, their work will be accepted as a manifestation of divine power.” Great Controversy, p. 588.

This angel of light’s spiritualistic, greater power to deceive and ensnare does not refer to the denominations’ insistence on the doctrine of the immortality of the soul, and the immediate reward to saints and sinners at death. The spiritualism she speaks of refers to the new “Do as thou wilt” rule of Satan, which abrogates the fear of God and His right to condemn sin, which was adopted by the free-loving, lawless daughters of the imperious Whore of Babylon the Great.

So, the third trumpet blew and a star called Wormwood poisoned all the springs of the abandoned Protestant hearts. When any mind imbibes the lie that there exists no greater authority to condemn sin, then satanic hosts gain immediate control. Wormwood often referred to the occult in the Old Testament scriptures. Such as,

“Lest there should be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turneth away this day from the LORD our God, to go and serve the gods [the devils] of these nations; lest there should be among you a root that beareth gall and wormwood; 

And it come to pass, when he heareth the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, though I walk in the imagination of mine heart, to add drunkenness to thirst: 

The LORD will not spare him, but then the anger of the LORD and His jealousy shall smoke against that man, and all the curses that are written in this book shall lie upon him, and the LORD shall blot out his name from under heaven….

For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them: 

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book: 

And the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as it is this day.” (Deut. 29:18-20,26-28).

“I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah. Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets; Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall: for from the prophets of Jerusalem is profaneness gone forth into all the land.” (Jer. 23:14,15).

“Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.” (Jer. 9:15).

“Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel. Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth.” (Amos 5:6 ,7).

“They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not…. For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter: their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.” (Deut. 32:17,32,33).

Once the churches rejected condemnation and conviction of sin for the smoother lawless gospel, Satan entered their minds and hearts. They were now worshiping and serving him in the name of worshiping and serving Jesus. The third trumpet signaled their transfer from Christ’s church into Satan’s. They forced Christ’s hand to give them over to the devil and his hosts. This is what we saw in Early Writings. “I turned to look at the company who were still bowed before the throne; they did not know that Jesus had left it. Satan appeared to be by the throne, trying to carry on the work of God. I saw them look up to the throne, and pray, ‘Father, give us Thy Spirit.’ Satan would then breathe upon them an unholy influence; in it there was light and much power, but no sweet love, joy, and peace. Satan’s object was to keep them deceived and to draw back and deceive God’s children.” Early Writings , p. 56.

Now that they were disqualified, their light went out. The fourth trumpet blew and the worst part of the Sun, Moon, and stars were darkened. The denominations were set aside and no longer the recipient of heaven’s dew of grace. And the time had arrived for the investigative judgment and for heaven’s final work to end the long controversy of sin and Satan. So, John is shown an angel flying in the sky crying, Woe, Woe, Woe to the inhabiters of the earth for the next three trumpets that are about to sound!

By this time the sabbatarian Adventists, in barns and livingrooms, were making serious study together to know what 1844 was about, since the Spirit of the Son had certainly been very close to them during the Millerite experience. The 1848-1850 Sabbath Conferences was the name given to those study groups. In the middle of that study a great event took place revealing the real character of the fallen denominations—the 1849 California Gold Rush. During that mad rush for riches, the debauchery, hustling, murders, and greed showed the real character brewing in our righteous nation. It was time for the ominous fifth trumpet to sound.

For the next five prophetic months—or the next 150 literal years—the fifth trumpet bottomless pit would open and remain so until 1999 and beyond in the sixth trumpet, while the hosts of darkness and their earthly workers of iniquity would corrupt Protestant America, and eventually the world it was shepherding. They would be corrupted by being separated from their Reformation God and His justification gifts of freedom and joy and peace. That separation would create a horrific emotional torment, the chastisement of our peace that Jesus took upon Himself in Gethsemane until Golgotha. Increasingly the divide between them and their God would become a vast chasm during the fifth trumpet, until the great gulf would be fixed during the sixth. The unstoppable locust army would sweep over the Protestant minds, conquering and enslaving and poisoning them. Their spiritual torment and anxiety would drive them to deaden it all by the consumption of every kind of substance. To escape their torments they would also resort to human theories and religious doctrines, secular entertainment and pastimes. Their prosperity would only enhance their galling yoke of mental pain and death.

Adding to their torments is the redirection of political and economic power into the hands of the devouring locusts. “He [the vile king of the north, which is the same beast locusts that ascend out of the bottomless pit and go into perdition (see Revelation 11:3 and 17:8,11)] shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.” (Dan. 11:43). There will be a total economic, Constitution, and spiritual besiegement. Everything spiritual and temporal, religious or secular, God will do to His beloved Protestant church what He had done many times to His beloved children of Israel. He will give back to Satan and his favorite earthly organization all the power that His children took from him. This transfer of power signifies the great finale of the setting up of the abomination of desolation, the transformation of apostate Protestantism into a likeness of the Dark Ages corruption and ignorance, its spiritual enslavement and demonic willingness to persecute all who are faithful to the truth of God.

Later the sixth trumpet locusts would finish off the Protestants by the transformation of the locusts to increased devouring torment acheiving a most horrific separation from God that would be final and permanent. Finally cut off from the life of God, faith atrophied and consciences killed, now Satan could delude them to serve his wicked ends and worship him as god. Fully inebriated with lawless grace from below, and cut off from their Creator, now Satan would have complete control of their lives. The destruction of faith, or the terrible battle to keep it, is what the fifth and sixth trumpets are all about.

The 144,000 at that time will be in total, helpless dismay and struggling for victory over their sinful natures. It will be the scene of agonizing cries and strong faith for the ability to get another view of Jesus for strength to overcome the beast and his image. Then, as seen in Revelation 11, just before the sixth trumpet closes, the 144,000 family of the great High Priest Jesus are finally cleansed, sealed, and ready to give the fourth angel’s message.

“And when they [the early protesters and later Reformers and Counter-Reformation Puritans] shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.  [This prophecy refers to the post-Puritan Seventh-day Adventists as heaven’s channels of light and it sheds light on the Revelation chapter 9 people of God during the 7^th seal’s fifth and sixth trumpets when the angel Wormwood opened the bottomless pit and Satan and his demon and human hosts desolate Protestantism until just before the Latter Rain revivals. Although the war was in full force against Christ’s priestly family, while Ellen White lived and wrote Satan’s hosts must remain at bay. But after her death we fall into Baal and Ashtoreth worship. The descendants of the victorious church of the wilderness are finally overcome by their previously defeated foe.]

“And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. 

And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. [This symbolism is modeled after Jeremiah 16:4;25:33 and verse 11 after Ezekiel 37:1-10.]

And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 

And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 

And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 

And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 

The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.” (Rev. 11:7-14).

“Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings” (Rev. 10:11) was the call that woke up the 144,000 from their spiritual sleep. The Adventist remnant are humbled and their uncircumcised hearts have accepted the punishment for their iniquities. Their agonizing is finished.

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD's hand double for all her sins.” (Isa 40:1,2).

Their strong faith, agonizing cries, and diligent effort won the battle in the darkness. They have obtained the victory over the beast and his image, over their own defects and deficiencies, and are sealed in perfect obedience to the Law of God. Now they can preach the gospel to the whole world for a witness to every nation. Although dangers surround them yet they remain unafraid because they are approved of God.

“Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. 

They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. 

The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of His inheritance: the LORD of hosts is His name.” (Jer 51:17-19).

Another email to my Lutheran friend, Alec

"Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon His name." Malachi 3:16.

Hi Alec. I also see the two extremes of authoritarianism and the emotion/passion orientation. Could it be described as we see it in the Bible—legalism and lawlessness? Like acid and base on the pH scale, both destroy. And that is why Satan constantly pushed and pushes humanity to join either of the two camps, and to hate the opposite group. Today the totalitarian religion-political world plays the part of the ancient Baal worship. And of course, the diametrically opposed ideal, freedom from religion and government/law-enforcement, plays the part of ancient Ashtoreth worship. The one is abusive, and the other is enabling. The one is Law without grace; condemnation and nothing else. And the other is grace without Law; grace and nothing but super-sweet grace. No “doctrine, …reproof, …correction, …instruction in righteousness”.

 

Satan loves to separate the Law and the gospel because he knows that together they are the power of God unto salvation. Fear of God for His powerful word that is pointed and sharper than a two-edged sword, is a beautiful thing. The child knows true love when his beloved parent chastens him in love. It means involvement. We don’t need to be afraid of the fear of God. It’s the gift that keeps on giving. The Law and gospel go together like the truth and grace were together in Jesus. “Like as a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.”

 

Together Law + grace = love and peace, which equals Christianity. Split up they equal the gall of bitterness and the bond of iniquity, which equal anti-Christianity.

An email to my brother Protestant

"Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon His name." Malachi 3:16.

Alec, I really appreciate your allegiance to the Bible. It truly is a great relief to read your biblical thoughts. In this explanation of prophecy, I wonder if you attach the late destabilization of world societies as a fulfillment of biblical prophecy.

I am with you that this vaccine and its accompanying pandemic are fraught with ulterior motives and agendas, as was 9/11. And I believe you are with me that we are living in the last days.

Bible prophecy, as predictions, are not what you described as the least of the gifts, and I'm sure you didn't mean that they are. Actually, they truly are a light that shineth in a dark place, and darkness is covering the earth, gross darkness the people. I find that only the Bible's prophecies gives us the true explanation of what is happening today. Deception and delusion are the key.

From what I gather, you are a Lutheran Protestant. If I am correct, I am glad to make your acquaintance. I am a Seventh-day Adventist Protestant. We are brethren, brother Protestants! As Protestants we both see the papacy in the same light. And we both know that the papacy is the anti-christ. The prophecies of Daniel and Revelation both pointed to the Roman Catholic church as the greatest danger to the kingdom of God, stamping upon the stars (the people of God), standing up against the Prince of the host (Christ), and throwing down the heavenly sanctuary.

And Revelation showed that same evil power to receive a wound by a sword--the word of God that liveth and abideth forever. It was your forefather, Martin Luther, and the other Reformers from all quarters who laid that sword so strongly against the neck of the seven headed beast. It was a deadly wound that they courageously inflicted.

But, that prophecy said that the deadly wound would heal. Revelation 13 and 17 point at the real power behind the raging natural disasters and diseases, failing economies, this rising of a spiritualistic new world aggressor empire, and the demise of the old world order of families and faith in Jehovah that was set up by Noah.

Brother, take care and please keep up the good work of encouraging others to trust in the words of Holy Writ.

David

Rivers from the sky

“Then they that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon His name.” Malachi 3:16.

When last week I heard the possibility of atmospheric rivers deluging northern California, I believed it because I had been looking into weather modification and found it to be very feasible. So, after hearing about the flooding that came to northern California this past weekend, I did a little surfing and found a video on the history of weather modification. 

Weather modification has been around for a long time. Other videos showed the hard evidence of modifying the atmosphere and nature. 1946 was the first successful atmospheric seeding in a laboratory. 1967 was a big year when major government/military entities were using weather modification for their purposes. 

But as I watched the video at the URL below, I was surprised on minute 15:21 that Jim Lee spoke of the very rivers that just pummeled California this past weekend. And the news that day had used the same terminology: “Oceanic Atmospheric Rivers”. Jim said, “If you can steer a river in the sky, you can bring all the water that you want.” See the video for yourself.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZH_Skm-OkZs

Folks, my brothers and sisters, in 2017 when I first saw the videos that showed the total destruction of northern California houses and cars in neighborhoods hit by the so-called wildfires, yet the trees and shrubs surrounding them were left untouched by fire(?), I had to get on Facebook and write, “We are under attack!” (See my post on June 21, 2019. TruthInvestigate (biking4theblind.blogspot.com))

And now what we just saw a few days ago in the same burned out area to finalize the beta test for evicting Americans of northern California confirms that Satan, through his earthly religious organization which is the Jesuit Order/Illuminati, have the power over humanity to destroy the nation that keeps the world free from religious despotism and ignorance of God. This organization is what Paul called “the son of perdition” and “him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish: because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” (2Thess. 2:9,10).

Brothers and sisters, we need to wake up to the reality that we are under attack by the son of perdition, who John also saw in vision. “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.” (Rev. 17:8). 

We are under an attack by the adversary, the religio-polical beast from the Dark Ages, which was fatally wounded by the Protestant Reformation (see Revelation 13:3). But now Satan has returned with vengeance to assail and to destroy his assailant and destroyer and primary nemesis, Protestantism and the Bible and the God of Abraham. And he has empowered his earthly organization with technology for that very purpose. Protestant America must go, which the son of perdition has been deceiving and corrupting since Jesus raised it up 250 years ago. Our world of freedom must go away. It must fall before the juggernaut from the bottomless pit, no differently than the empire of pagan Rome had to fall away before Satan could raise up his original son of perdition, a fallen and corrupted apostolic church, the Roman papacy, the Holy Roman Empire. Heaven's Omniscience and Providence has foretold it and fore-ordained it.

“And now ye know what withholdeth [holds back] that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity [that quiet, little, sacrilegious horn power of Daniel 7 and 8] doth already work: only he who now letteth [withholds him, holds him back, will continue to do so], until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming.” (2Thess. 2:6-8).

The past 45 years have been the finale of Satan’s deception “power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness”, since John Paul the Great ascended to the throne of the Vatican, but a finale which actually began 2,000 years ago. “The great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world…. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” (Rev. 12:9,12). Nevertheless, the grande finale of deluding humanity has been in earnest for the past 20 years.

The oceanographic atmospheric rivers are being unleashed to weaken this world's complacent nations to resist the devil’s new resurrection from his interment. The Wicked one is punishing humanity by his “black pope”, but simultaneously leading it to look for comfort and encouragement from the same hellish power that is making appeals through a different puppet than the Jesuit black pope. That power is the “white” pope, the one who sits on Peter’s chair, and who used to be a servant of the black pope, but is now its counterpart. Satan has finally obtained what he has been aiming for since the Protestant Reformation, that is, his favorite earthly organization to be under one head—the black pope who appears white.

And when the whole world is submitted to the corrupting power of the black pope, who represents Baal, and his destructive power;  and when the hearts of humanity are surrendered to the warm appeals of the white pope, who represents Ashtoreth, worshiping him, then Satan will have a world that he can personally come to, which will be 100% submissive to him and worship him. He has force-manipulated the nations to break completely from the old world order that Jesus gave to holy Noah and his holy descendants, Jehovah’s people. That ransacked people of the Lord have lost their guardianship of the world and the charge that Jesus’ bequeathed to them. His church is desolated because “because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.” (2Thess. 2:10).

And one day soon, when the world's full desolation is complete, in body and soul, then Satan will appear in person—in the person of Jesus. He has already fooled the world with his “Company of Jesus”, which are “that wicked one” who would come copying the working of Satan—the newly resurrected Vatican. It is the unconscionable, evil, demon-possessed Jesuit Vatican, and now he can personally impersonate Christ’s second advent. And the whole world will fall down and worship him.

Then the plagues will fall because, with exception of a small remnant who understand the deception though the power of the Holy Spirit of God, and love Jesus with all their soul and might, the whole world will be completely caught up in New Age spiritualism. The final despotic regime will not look like the Dark Ages juggernaut, but will fill hearts with white magic, and white witchcraft, and white occult practices. The old world order that righteous Noah and his God established will be vanquished and driven from the conceptions and adorations of mankind, and in the stead of the old world order the new world will worship the holy Creator’s wicked adversary of souls.

But, that spiritually battered and discouraged small remnant who still know their God will be fully humbled and converted. Their great heavenly Intercessor will justify them and seal them in His justification. He will restore them to His original mandate given to the Adventist pioneers.

“The Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.” (Rev. 11:11-13).

God wins the war when His people wake up to the signs of the times, which will drive them to acknowledge their irresponsibility to His commandments and to deep repentance, then on to a vital connection with Him through His only begotten Son who loved them and gave Himself for them. God will save His people. They will stand with Him in mount Zion having His Father’s name written in their foreheads (their heart, mind, will). Like His apostolic forerunners, God will once again have a group “raised...up together, and made… [to sit] together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” (Eph. 2:6).

“According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love: having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, wherein He hath made us accepted in the Beloved.” (Eph. 1:4-6). “That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.” (Eph. 2:7).

Adventists leaving the church

Here is the crux of a testimony of a woman who left the Advent movement:

Kamy assumes the role of spiritual leader in the home

After my father tragically died at a young and unexpected age, I took up the anvil of the family altar and became an avid student of Ellen White and firmly took my stand with the belief that the Seventh-day Adventist Church was God’s remnant church, that Ellen White was indeed a true prophet and must be heeded as much as any Biblical prophet. I became more conservative even than my father and for a few years believed that participating in certain activities like playing chess, checkers and cards was something to be shunned as Ellen White had clearly written  “heaven forbids” it.  I took off my own wedding ring that I had worn in my more youthful and less conservative years and did my best to be as proper and unworldly as I possibly could. 

In my earnestness I even tried to (with the best of intentions) steer my mom and sisters and their families back on to the “right and proper” path of salvation to their utter disdain and annoyance. They were actually a lot more patient with me than I probably deserved. They knew that I was sincere and truly cared about them or they would have had me tarred and feathered for sure! Again, I say this humorously.

But even in the midst of my soldiering on in the battle of defending my faith I would often stumble upon things that I simply could not understand or see how it fit in with what the Bible seemed to be saying and at those critical junctures I would often throw my hands up resignedly, saying, “well, I don’t understand it, but she is the prophet so who am I to question.”

Wow, it is a painful realization for me now to think that I could have ever turned over my own God given reason to another person when I had the Bible right there in front of me telling me, “this is the way, walk in it.” 

 Kamy’s faith is shaken

It was not until I went through a painful economic collapse, bankruptcy, bitter disappointment and a failed marriage that my faith was shaken to the degree that it caused me to question everything I ever believed and what it was that I was really holding on to. My crutches were completely knocked out from under me and I was truly at the lowest point in my existence, face down and brought to my knees. When the dust finally settled and I looked up Jesus was still standing there. I could hear him saying to my heart, “though others have rejected, denounced, condemned and judged you, I love you. I do not condemn you. I will never leave you or forsake you. I am all you have and I am all you need, go and sin no more, but if you do, confess your sins and I will always be faithful and just to forgive you and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness for I ever live to intercede for you.”

I started realizing that although I had been sincere and zealous I had actually been faithful to a cause instead of to Christ. I had made an idol of my way of looking at God and religion and would have made an excellent Pharisee but a very lousy Christian. I determined that I was going to open up my heart and mind in a way that I had never opened it before to Jesus Christ. 

I do not think that now I have all the answers or understand all the truth there is to understand about God. But now it is a lot easier, just using the Bible and letting the Holy Spirit speak to me through it which has led me on a different path than following in the footprints of Ellen White and all the teachings of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

There is one thing I know for sure and that is that the love of Christ constrains me and there is nothing that can separate me from His love and mercy and forgiveness. I know that I cannot afford to stand for even one second without Jesus as my intercessor and that I have absolutely no righteousness of my own but that I am covered fully and completely by the grace and righteousness of Christ and always will be, that my salvation is found in Him and Him alone; not in a church, a denomination, a doctrine or a cause, just Jesus Christ. And I am so thankful to finally know that.

I was sad to read this account. I don't know Kamy or her family or Brian. But, I have seen the issues in Adventism that are raised by people leaving the church. I also left for 13 years and spend my years out in the world. During those years, no religion was my path, and raising a family where love could be experienced. I had tasted of real Christian love, but the person who introduced that to me moved on and I was once again left with church life empty of anything worth going there. A country club I didn't want. I wanted love, and playing church didn't satisfy. The person who showed me real, loving fellowship loved Jesus, he loved his Bible, he loved the Spirit of Prophecy, he loved the hymns, he loved the Steps to Christ that he carried around in his pocket, he loved the people in our church and they loved him. I had grown up in that church from age 9 when my father joined the church, and all I ever knew of Adventism was people coming to church, sitting in church, listening to leaders teach them, and then leaving church at noon. But, this young man, an adult to my teen mind, was different. From him I learned about October 22,1844 and church history. From him I learned of the health message that we had had for the previous century. From him I learned the Bible. It was an amazing year and a half! Oh how I loved it! The standard was high; self-discipline was expected; but love made it all possible! Self-denial and love are infinitely better than indifference without love. I love to confess something similar to what Ellen White wrote, "Of all the great [SDA youth groups] since the days of [my time with Richard], none have been [so full of love, and] more free from human imperfection and the wiles of Satan than was that of the [the Fairfax, VA SDA church in 1974-75]. Even now, after the lapse of many years, all who shared in that [youth group] and who have stood firm upon the platform of truth still feel the holy influence of that blessed work and bear witness that it was of God." Great Controversy, p. 401.

When Jesus brought me back to Him, He led me straight back to the where I left Him, into the Adventist church. He gave me a ravenous need to relearn what I had received in my youth, and to understand Bible prophecy. After a few years of a sharp learning curve, He gave me a unique way of seeing the book of Revelation. So, after ten years of struggling to put my learning on paper, organizing my new understanding of the whole Bible in the context of the Revelation message, I published a book that no one bought, except two people. One gave me an A+ and the other gave me an F-.

But, that's OK. All of that behind me now, with confidence I can tell people that, regarding the relevance of Adventism, it is in Revelation and current events. Everything Jesus gave His precious Advent Movement in the Bible and through His last days Moses/Paul, Ellen White, is coming true right before our ever wondering eyes. How can any Adventist call Mrs. White a cult leader/con artist/plagiarist etc.? All they have to do is open their eyes and ears. And how dare Adventists say, "I don't believe in conspiracy theories"! Isn't Satan's great controversy against God the Father and His church a great conspiracy? Often I am astonished at the ignorance of the truth God gave us in the third angel's message, which is all that Ellen White promulgated.

Regarding the prevailing unbelief toward perfection and sanctification for preparation to meet Jesus at His powerful and destructive second coming, as Ellen White faithfully and so energetically laid plainly before us, who can say that her sensible super-high standards did not come from a heavenly fountain of pure wisdom? Anyone who has tried to disregard any of the plethora of her counsels has found only trouble and misery. Let’s get honest and admit that truth is truth, and we can do nothing against it, but for it. Either we prove it correct by honoring it and receiving the great rewards, or we prove it true by dishonoring it and paying the consequences. Her message was the Law of God, just like the messages of every previous prophet of the Lord. Her instructions in righteousness, like Moses and all the prophets like him, are from heaven. Nothing earthly can compare with the volume and the purity of the words from Jesus that flowed through all His messengers since the beginning. And Ellen White was one of His messengers, the final and greatest messenger. She was our John the Baptist who was more than a prophet.

Let no one disregard her anymore. From her own pen: “I saw that the testimony of the True Witness has not been half heeded. The solemn testimony upon which the destiny of the church hangs has been lightly esteemed, if not entirely disregarded. This testimony must work deep repentance; all who truly receive it will obey it and be purified.” Early Writings, p. 270. Every SDA needs to read that short three page chapter. It’s entitled, The Shaking. Pertinant! Pointed! Please people, read and heed!

But, there is another very relevant aspect to Adventism, and it particularly relates to Kamy’s experience and to every Adventist’s experience, as it did to mine. That aspect is heard from the wonderfully analytical apostle Paul:

“But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 

But before faith came, we were kept under ['the curse of" (vs. 13)] the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.” (Gal. 3:22-24).

These words speak directly to Adventists more than to anyone else in Christianity. How so? you ask. Let’s place this above text in our present day and you see if it is the greatest truth ever told!

“But the [Spirit of prophecy counsels have] concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. 

But before faith came, we were kept under the [condemnations of the Spirit of prophecy counsels], shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. 

Wherefore the [Spirit of prophecy counsels were] our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be [justified, sanctified, sealed] by faith.”

Now, we need to ask the question, How many Adventists have allowed the counsels of the last days prophet to bring them to Christ for a genuine justification and the new birth? Have not those condemnatory counsels caused most Adventists to 1) check off each and every requirement as having already achieved them or having bent all their willpower to achieve obedience to the requirement one at a time, or 2) be driven to total rebellion against the offense that those counsels waylaid against their fallen nature. Either way, the offense rarely broke their stubborn pride, and brought them to repentance. And that was their primary purpose! Therefore, faith never came to those two majorities, and neither did justification and peace with God. But faith and grace should have been the fruit. What went wrong? Could the formula that Paul said blessed the apostolic church have failed in the Adventist church?

We were kept under the Law, as every prophet of the Lord has done to God’s people throughout the ages. “But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.” (1Cor. 10:5). “The word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.” (Heb. 4:2).

“While it is said, To day if ye will hear His voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. 

For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. 

But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? 

And to whom sware He that they should not enter into His rest, but to them that believed not? 

So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Heb. 3:15-19).

However, “not all” rebelled. Not everyone who wandered in the wilderness continuously refused to hear the laws from Moses. And, likewise, not all biding the time for Jesus to return continuously refused to hear the counsels from Ellen White. But most did refuse the humbling of their uncircumcised heart. Most of the children of Israel and of Adventism would not be convicted of sin and be brought to repentance. This explains the dry experience of most Adventists since 1844. But, the scary thing about this comparison with ancient Israel that even Ellen White made in her masterpiece of truth, The Great Controversy, pages 457 and 458, is that if we have been repeating the history of the Israelites in Moses time, then at the end of their privilege of presenting Jesus to the world we, as a denomination, are due to repeat Israel's horrendous history in the days of their Messiah, Jesus the only Begotten of the Father. So, what would be the modern counterpart to the Jews 2,000 years ago? Our generation! Yes, every Adventist must be cognizant of this. We, in our current worldliness and pompous Phariseeism are on the verge of selling our Lord for the price of a slave, and of persecuting the recipients of Jesus' Latter Rain when He will walk among us like He did the apostolic church. The Lord of hosts will count us among His hosts of heaven and earth.

“The power of the Holy Ghost must be upon us and the Captain of the Lord’s host will stand at the head of the angels of heaven to direct the battle. Solemn events before us are yet to transpire.

Trumpet after trumpet is to be sounded; vial after vial poured out one after another upon the inhabitants of the earth. Scenes of stupendous interest are right upon us and these things will be sure indications of the presence of Him who has directed in every aggressive movement, who has accompanied the march of His cause through all the ages, and who has graciously pledged Himself to be with His people in all their conflicts to the end of the world.” Selected Messages, bk. 3, p. 426.

But who will take part in that powerful event? Or who will fight against it like the scribes and Pharisees worked feverishly to undermine Jesus when the Captain of our salvation will once again be in our midst during the Loud Cry of the Latter Rain? Everything depends on the right action of standing before the searching Spirit of prophecy that always calls sin by its right name. Just like the scriptures, No loopholes!
