The Necessity of Studying Context and Association

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER SEVEN – Part 5

The Necessity of Studying Context and Association

      Whom shall He teach knowledge? And whom will He make to understand the message? Those just weaned from the milk? Those just drawn from the breasts? For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little. Isaiah 28: 9, 10, 13, N.K.J.V.

 

Samuel Johnson said:  “Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.” – Bosswell’s Life of Johnson.

Like most aged 67 and over—take it or leave it—we’re already descending the twilight side of the hill we were ascending its sunny side….like only yesterday.

Everyday our youthful energy has been dissipating—normal to mortals. But one thing I am grateful to God for is the desire to understand the present, testing truths of the Bible for these last days remains undiminished, particularly the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation, testing them with the rules principle given above by the gospel prophet, and sharing them with as many who are interested.

Are We Preparing for the Latter Rain?– Part IX

THE LATTER RAIN EMPOWERS THE FINAL LOUD CRY

Since my earliest quest back in the early 1990s for a better comprehension of the subjects classed as “present, sealing truth,” the subjects of the Holy Spirit, the Latter Rain, and the Loud Cry, etc., fascinated me.  Adopting William Miller’s method (GC 319-20), I turned to my Strong’s Comprehensive Concordance and prayerfully studied (and continue) all the direct as well as collateral passages in the Bible referring to each.

In His time, God led me to the works of men possessing deep love and understanding for the same subjects, based on the Bible and the writings of Ellen G. White. Two of my favorite resources are The Coming of the Comforter (1949 ed.) by LeRoy E. Froom, and Gordon Collier’s lectures , titled
