@@@^If we conclude that “The Shepherd’s Rod” is wrong by saying that the promised Elijah’s message of Malachi 4:5 is the “messenger of the covenant, “ and the “Gospel Workers” for applying the same title to both Christ and Moses, then we might as well infer that Christ likewise misapplied the same scripture, for “Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John...But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet. For this is he, of whom it is written, @9Behold, I send my messenger before thy face@7, which shall prepare thy way before thee. And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.” (Matt. 11:7, 9, 10, 14.)
Judges 3:9
@@@^Sr. Diamond writes from the Sunny Slope desert convalescent colony at Phoenix, where she has long been fighting to gain back her health, saying; “I have realized ever since 1929 when I joined the S.D.A. church that we needed a reformation.” Then she adds the following reassuring words; “I know the SRod message is Present Truth just as much as Peter knew Jesus was the Son of God...and I like the Present Truth literature so well that I have read it through twice and now am studying it so I will be prepared for the work when God calls.”
Judges 8:6
@@@^Also you may present the matter from still other angles. Jesus and the apostles were Jews and members of the organized church at that time, yet they had a treasurer of their own. Moreover the apostles received everything that was brought and laid at their feet–tithe, offering, and principal. Acts 4:34, 35. This gives us the finest apostolic precedent one might wish, for the apostles were also bearing a special message to the church, just as we are today, and not to the world.
Ruth 5:11
@@@^Matt. 15:33 reveals that while Jesus was on the cross darkness covered the land from the sixth hour (noon) to the ninth hour (3 P.M.), and that when He died the darkness disappeared. (Matt. 27:46-50.) Then Luke adds that the Saviour was buried by the twelfth hour (sunset), at which time the Sabbath drew on. (Lu. 23:52-54.) Here we see that the chronological record of the events proves that from the time He was crucified to the time He was buried the hours between three A.M. and twelve P.M.–were consumed about 9 hours.
Ruth 6:6
@@@^Consequently, Jesus was arrested on Wednesday night, after which He was tried twice before the priests, twice before the Sanhedrin, twice before Pilate and once before Herod (D.A. 760) seven trials in all which denotes completeness. @^@@9Graphic@7
Ruth 7:3
@@@^Matt. 28:1, 2 proves that the Lord arose on the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, for it is stated in these verses that, “In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the @9first day of the week@7, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. And, behold, there was a great @9earthquake@7: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.” As the women came to the sepulchre just before the rising of the sun (John 20:1), and as the “earthquake” occurred while they were on their way to the place, it shows that the angel descended from heaven and rolled away the stone just before they arrived. Mark also testifies that “Jesus was @9risen early@7 the @9first day of the week@7.” (Mark 16:9.)
Ruth 7:4
@@@^Hence from the time Jesus was taken before the priests to the time He arose, there were exactly three days and three nights, fulfilling the words: “For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale’s belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth” that is, in the hands of sinful clay. (Matt. 12:40.)
Ruth 7:8
@@@^The fact that the author says, “On the day the Passover was eaten He was to be sacrificed,” proves that she does not mean the second day from the feast which Jesus celebrated, but rather from the paschal feast on Friday night, which actually falls on the Sabbath, for the Passover on Friday, before He was crucified “the second day of the feast,” would not fall on Sunday but rather on the Sabbath, and as her position is that Christ arose on Sunday, on the day the sheaf was offered (D.A. 785), it is evident that the statement in “Patriarchs and Prophets” must be understood to refer to another than the second day from the first feast–the real Passover. In other words if she means that which seems to appear on the face of it, the second day of the feasts, according to what she has written elsewhere, would fall on the seventh day Sabbath instead of on the day the resurrection took place.
1 Samuel 3:5
@@@^I am writing just a few lines to let you know that along with my husband I am rejoicing in this wonderful message, which has made a decided change for good in our lives. It is wonderful what the Lord will do when we open our hearts and homes to him....I love to read the SRod books and tracts and can always find new treasures in them.... We want and intend always to be sincere and true and to preach the Word till Jesus comes. @3(Signed) Mrs. Wm. Edwards@4Hartford City, Ind.
1 Samuel 8:10
@@@^Answer: The question which here arises is how is it possible to reconcile “The Shepherd’s Rod” with the “Spirit of Prophecy,” when the one seems to say that Jesus @9will leave@7 the most holy place at Eze. 9, while the other says He @9will not leave@7 until every case is decided?
1 Samuel 8:11
@@@^Without attempting to explain the event described in E.W. 36, we shall inquire only into the matter of whether it is possible in view of the E.W. statement for Jesus to “leave” the most holy place to execute the work of Eze. 9 before the general close of human probation.
1 Samuel 8:12
@@@^To begin with there is nothing in the word “leave” that connotes finality and permanence of condition or action. To leave once does not preclude the possibility of having left on previous occasions and then returned. Hence, on the logic of language alone, the mere fact that Sr. White “saw that Jesus would not @9leave@7 the most holy until every case was decided,” does not argue that He could therefore never have@9 left@7 the most holy place before, and that He cannot leave it to execute Eze. 9 on the church.
1 Samuel 9:1
@@@^However, we need not base our position entirely on logic. The Scriptures abundantly evidence the fact that Jesus is to dwell in the @9midst@7 of His people at a time before every case is decided. We quote Zech. 2:10, 11–”Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I @9come@7, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord. And many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and shall be My people.”
1 Samuel 9:6
@@@^Some have an altogether too narrow view of the Godhead. They think that in order for Jesus to carry on the investigative judgment in the heavenly sanctuary, He must confine Himself there every moment, and that even in case of necessity He cannot leave the place of the most holy apartment to do anything else until His mediatorial work is finished.
2 Samuel 1:5
@@@^Some of our brethren wish to know the position we hold on the message in the “Rod.” The question is, Do we allow mistakes in it, or do we hold that the contents in the “Rod” are unquestionable? This we answer as follows: Analysis proves that truth has never come at any time by the power and wisdom of men, but by the Spirit of God through instruments of His own choice. Said Jesus, “When the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into ALL truth.” If we should believe the words of the Master, then we must conclude that the “Rod” contains either ALL truth or there is NO truth in it, save the quotations of truth. Therefore, if we admit one truth @9revealed@7 by the “Rod,” then we must accept it ALL. If God has been able to guide His servants in the past into ALL truth, He is able now. Therefore, we take the position that the message in the “Rod” is free from error in so far as the ideas put forth are concerned.
2 Samuel 4:1
@@@^“The church here has had several committee meetings of late because of my activities. Things are getting real serious. They say they see a split coming and it frightens them. 0, I do rejoice when I see things coming to a head. God is working and soon the crash will come. They are trying to get evidence against me, but no matter what they do to me, I want to be what Jesus wants me to be, and with His help I am going to be.” @3(Signed) Mrs. Anna Oswald @4Houston, Texas
2 Samuel 4:5
@@@^“Laws and rules are being made at the centers of the work @9that will soon be broken to atoms@7....If the cords are drawn much tighter, if the rules are made much finer, if men continue to bind their fellow laborers closer and closer to @9the commandments of men@7, many will be stirred by the Spirit of God to @9break every shackle@7, and assert their liberty in Christ Jesus...”–R. & H., July 23 1895.
2 Samuel 6:12
@@@^“I do hope that the good Lord will put it into the hearts of many of His dear people to study for themselves before it is too late. My heart is sad for the dear ones who will not investigate for themselves. Do pray for me that I may hold up Jesus in my life and be prepared to help others find the way, and that I may be ‘able to stand’ when He appears.” @3(Signed) Mrs. J. A. Dundore@4Hanover, Pa.
2 Samuel 8:2
@@@^Answer: Our relation to the church is the same as was that of John the Baptist, Jesus Christ, and the apostles, that is, we have a message to proclaim to the church and though the church, like the Sanhedrin, should order us out of the “temple,” we must refuse to leave it, for if we depart, how shall we proclaim the message to the people?
2 Samuel 10:10
@@@^Answer: According to SRod, Vol. 1, p. 44, Class number two; namely, the great multitude of Rev. 7:9, have their palms in their hands while they are on earth before being transported to the heaven of heavens. Hence their palms according to John’s vision are symbolic of victory gained. But in the statement from The Great Controversy, p. 646: “In every hand are placed the victor’s palm and the shining harp,” it will be noted that this gift to the saints is not made until they are in heaven–after they have all been transported from the earth. These palms are real but the others figurative. To prove that the great multitude have their palms in symbol only, and before Jesus finishes His work in the heavenly sanctuary, read Rev. 7:11. Here it states that the great multitude have their palms while the elders and four beasts are still before the throne of the investigative judgment in the heavenly sanctuary. (See SRod, Vol. 2, pp. 189-191.) Therefore, they have their palms while the investigative judgment is in session–before probation closes. Furthermore, in regard to the class and the event of G.C. 646, note that in every hand in which is placed the victor’s palm there is also placed a shining harp. Whereas the great multitude have only palms but no harps. Therefore, these are two separate incidents distinct one from the other.
