WILL LIFE ‘RETURN TO NORMAL,’ IF AND WHEN THE COVID PANDEMIC ENDS?

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

WILL LIFE ‘RETURN TO NORMAL,’ IF AND WHEN THE COVID PANDEMIC ENDS?

The end-time, line of prophecy, combined Elijah-and-John- the-Baptist messages and work, in their respective dispensations, generations, times and places, one following and building up on the former, are the cumulative, prophesied magnified content and burden of the worldwide closing messages and work of the Third angel of Revelation 14 for these last days.

Their messages and combination work of revival and reformation, either as a last attempt to “snatch” Israel (of the ten northern tribes) from the brink of their terminal-stage apostasy, or to warn the Jewish nation, the chosen people, whose religious leaders were called a “generation of vipers” (deadly venomous snakes). John the Baptist “warned to flee the wrath to come,” by bringing forth fruit meet (worthy) of repentance.” This was the necessary preparation for the promised-by-way-of-prophecy Messiah to come.

They had to be “purged” by the “fiery baptism of the Holy Spirit or else be reserved to be “burned as chaff with unquenchable fire” in the cleansing fires of the last days as the final reward of unjust and wicked. (Note: both messenger-prophets accomplished their work but those warned, rejected them and their messages, in fact and truth, they rejected God, the Giver of the messages. The few of accepted it, carried forward the lighted candlestick of truth, its flame “a light to the feet and a lamp to the path ahead in march of time).

These two messenger-prophets’ messages-work were so pivotal in the preservation and progress of the plan of redemption in the Old and New Testament dispensations that the they were designated by God himself as “messengers” first, then, prophets, in that order—describing the solemnity, gravity, and time-sensitive nature of their messages and the specific work it entailed in order to accomplish a specified divine purpose.

The Bible repeatedly emphasizes the necessity of establishing the truth “in the mouth of two or three [credible, harmonious] witnesses,” at the very least. These two, in this context, are Elijah followed by John the Baptist. (Note: the New and Old Testaments are also symbolized in apocalyptic prophecy as “two prophets” and “two witnesses” (Rev. 11:1-13 that belong to a distinct and separate line of prophecy within the 2300-days of Dan. 8’:14) and are never to be misapplied to either Moses and Elijah, as the hyperliteralistic Rapture, Premillenial, Zion-centric interpretation teaches, nor to Moses and Elijah (who appeared with Christ at the mount of transfiguration, to reveal to Peter, James, and John, three witnesses and thus to the world through their testimony, a miniature representation of the future kingdom of glory made up of both resurrects and translated saints).

Therefore, following the “two or three witnesses” rule in the continuum of the specific and special messenger-prophet line, who, in these last days, is the third and last of them—-to help prepare a people and warn the world of the events on earth and in heaven, leading up to the close of earth’s probation just prior to Christ glorious second advent?

It is absolutely essential to know who, based on the same Bible and its prophecies, as well as church and denominational history of the advent movement, because it is from this third and last messenger-prophet that we are basing our information and enlightenment as to what to expect and prepare for, post Covid pandemic or simply moving forward from hereon.

To be continued. Bless all, NMF
