Genesis 19:1
@@@^We read the following in Volume 2, page 606: “I am authorized from God to tell you that not another ray of light through the Testimonies will shine upon your pathway, until you make a practical use of the light already given.” But now we must have corn or else we shall die. As a people we have much boasted that we have all the truth, but such a statement can not be found between the pages of the Spirit of Prophecy. “Not another ray of light will shine upon your pathway until you make a practical use of the light already given.” These words suggest that there is more light to shine, and light is truth. Again, quoting from Testimonies to Ministers, page 107: “No one should claim that he has all the light there is for God’s people. The Lord will not tolerate this. He has said, ‘I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it.’ Even if all our leading men should refuse light and truth, that door will still remain open. The Lord @9will raise@7 up men who will give the people the message for this time.”
Genesis 118:2
@@@^The second portion of food, or truth which we were to get was represented by barley. John Knox was the next man who made the second step by teaching the doctrine represented by the barley which was the truth of the “Holy Spirit.” Barley is not so commonly or widely used as wheat. In fact, few people would use it, and at that, very seldom. Many people do not know what barley is; so with the doctrine of the “Holy Spirit”. While the doctrine of the Holy Spirit is believed by some Christians, it is not believed by others. Some do not understand what the truth of the Spirit is, even as some do not know what barley is; so the symbol representing the second doctrine is perfect, even as the first. Gideon’s experience with the Midianite’s dream of the barley cake overturning the tent proves the same. Read Judges 7:13, 14.
Genesis 119:1
@@@^Lentils are used to represent the fourth portion of truth. Alexander Campbell is credited with making the fourth step upward by teaching the doctrine of baptism by immersion, symbolized by the lentils. The variety (lentils) representing the fourth doctrine (baptism by immersion) is not known or used even as much as barley: so with the truth of immersion. Baptism by immersion in the old-fashioned way is not generally practiced, even as lentils are not generally used. Again God has used the right kind of symbol to represent this portion of truth.
Genesis 121:1
@@@^In like manner, the truth represented by the barley (Spirit) was turned down by those who had accepted the doctrine symbolized by the wheat (faith). Knox believed in all the truth he had and also all the truth Luther taught. Thus the wheat and the barley were in one vessel and carried to the second step.
Genesis 122:2
@@@^Quoting Ezek. 4:8, we read: “And, behold, I will lay @9bands@7 upon thee, and thou shalt @9not@7 turn thee from one side to another, till thou hast @9ended@7 the days of thy siege.” The prophet was to lie on his @9left@7 side 390 days. During this time he was to @9eat@7 the varieties of food. But why on the left side? Why not on the right? Because the symbol would not have been perfect had he lain on his right side while eating. The stomach of a man is shaped something like a crescent, with a narrow neck to the right as an outlet. If a man lies on his left side, the outlet is upward, against gravity, and consequently would be difficult to empty itself, which would cause the food to remain within it. @9Had it not been for the bands@7 the Lord put around Ezekiel, he would have turned to his right side, thus spoiling the symbol. The meaning is that even though the great enemy tried to @9force out@7 every truth by @9prejudice@7 and @9insinuations@7, and casting out of the church those who were teaching these new truths as it has been in each instance in the past, yet God saw to it that every truth would remain until He has put them in @9one vessel@7, and so it is.
Genesis 124:2
@@@^The question may be asked, How have we polluted God’s truth? Only one of the many references will be quoted here. Volume 1, pages 471, 472: “A great mistake has been made by some who profess present truth, by introducing merchandise in the course of a series of meetings,… Ministers have stood in the desk and preached a most solemn discourse, and then by introducing merchandise, and acting the part of a salesman, @9even@7 in the house of God.… The burden of selling our publications should not rest upon ministers who labor in word and doctrine.” Volume 8, page 250: “I saw our Instructor [Christ] pointing to the garments of so-called righteousness. Stripping them off, He laid bare the defilement beneath. Then He said to me: ‘Can you not see how they have pretentiously covered up their defilement and rottenness of character? “How is the faithful city become an harlot?” @9My Father’s House@7 is made a house of @9merchandise@7, a place whence the divine presence and glory have departed! For this cause there is weakness, and strength is lacking’.” Thus we have the proof that every truth thus far has been polluted, including the Sabbath.
Genesis 131:2
@@@^“The Lord @9often@7 works where @9we least@7 expect Him; He surprises us by revealing His power through instruments of @9His own@7 choice, while He passes by the men to whom @9we@7 have looked as those through whom light should come. God desires us to @9receive@7 the truth upon @9its own @7merits,—because it is @9truth@7.… But @9beware@7 of rejecting that which is @9truth@7. The great danger with our people has been that of @9depending upon men@7, and making flesh their arm. Those who @9have not @7been in the habit of searching the Bible @9for themselves@7, or weighing evidence, have confidence @9in the leading men@7, and @9accept@7 the decision @9they@7 make; and thus @9many will reject the very messages God sends@7 to His people, if these leading brethren do not accept them.
Genesis 160:2
@@@^“Isaiah the Gospel Prophet”, page 73 (Lessons for Today) commenting on “Verses 1-6,” says, “These verses should bring serious thoughts to every soul. There is no more dreadful picture in all the Bible than this section presents. The figure of God’s striding forth to tread the wine press of His wrath is an awful one. Yet it is true. Esau had all the opportunity that any one could have to know right from wrong. He willfully chose wrong, and became a persecutor of the true people of God. We conceive that there are none upon whom God’s wrath will be visited more completely than upon those who have @9known@7 the truth, are closely related to it, as it were, and yet turn from it to become persecutors of those who do @9right@7. Even as it is a blessed thing to accept the truth, so it is a fearful thing to reject it. And rejection need not include all truth. To reject a part may be just as fatal as to reject the whole. So all should beware.” Read Volume 5, page 492; volume 8, pages 248-250; Volume 1, page 190; Volume 1, pages 471-472; Volume 5, pages 207-216; Testimonies to Ministers, page 380; Volume 2, page 708; Testimonies to Ministers, pages 206, 407, 408.
