The Book of Joel and The Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist Church - Number Thirty-Three

At the Sunday law the one hundred and forty-four thousand prophetically meet the eleventh-hour workers. The one hundred and forty-four thousand are already sealed, and are then calling for the great multitude to come out of Babylon and to stand with them for the seventh-day Sabbath. Judgment for God’s house ends at the Sunday law, and judgment then moves unto the Gentiles, the great multitude—God’s other flock. Revelation seven identifies both groups, and in the fifth seal the martyrs from the Dark Ages ask “how long” until God judges the papal power for their martyrdom? They are told to rest in their graves until a second group of martyrs of papal persecution is made up, and they are given white robes. The great multitude of Revelation chapter seven wear white robes, for they represent the second group of papal martyrs in the soon-coming Sunday law crisis. Revelation seven and the fifth seal address these two groups, as does the churches of Smyrna and Philadelphia. Smyrna represents the martyrs of the final papal blood bath, and Philadelphia the one hundred and forty-four thousand.

Peter is at the third hour at Caesarea Philippi, and after “six days,” not six hours, he would be at the edge of the Sunday law, which is the ninth hour.

At the Sunday law the one hundred and forty-four thousand prophetically meet the great multitude. Elijah represents the one hundred and forty-four thousand who do not taste of death, and Moses represents those who die in the Lord. They are standing with Christ at the Sunday law, which is where Christ anoints His kingdom of glory as He established His kingdom of grace at the cross. If you are still engaged in the logic we are setting forth in connection with the six-hour period from the third to ninth hour, then it is necessary to see something that is a very special illustration.

The third hour of Caesarea Philippi is the alpha of the ninth hour’s omega of Caesarea Maritima. I am identifying that not six hours, but six days later, Peter is at the Mount of Transfiguration, that also illustrates the history that culminates at the Sunday law, which is the ninth hour. The six-day period aligns with the six-hour period, but only as a fractal of Caesarea to Caesarea. What is very special is that this phenomenon of a fractal of the history being within the history of the six-hour period is exactly what happens when you consider the Pentecostal season. The six hours from the death of Christ unto Pentecost is a fractal of the period of the cross unto 34 AD, when the sacred week concluded and the gospel went to the Gentiles.

In the midst of the sacred week Christ was crucified. Three and a half years later Stephen was stoned and Cornelius called for Peter. Three and a half years after the cross, probation is fully finished for ancient Israel. Stephen then looked into heaven and saw Christ standing, which is the symbol of the close of probation in Daniel twelve verse one. The door closed for ancient Israel and opened for the Gentiles.

In the period from the death of Christ at the ninth hour to the death of Stephen and Peter’s calling at the ninth hour, Cornelius and Stephen are two witnesses that the twelve hundred and sixty prophetic days were fulfilled. From the ninth hour of death to the ninth hour of death, was 1,260 prophetic days. The ninth hour of death unto the ninth hour of Pentecost identifies a fractal of the 1,260 days, in the space of fifty-two days.

The fractal that was the Pentecostal season is at the beginning of those 1,260 days, and at the end of those days Peter is prophetically located at both the third and ninth hour in Caesarea. The two Caesarea’s represent the alpha and omega of a prophetic six-hour period. Within the prophetic six-hour period of the two Caesarea’s, Peter travels for six days and gets to the Mount of Transfiguration. The Mount represents the sealing that culminates at the Sunday law, which is where the church triumphant is lifted up above all the mountains. Those six days represent the six-hour period from Caesarea to Caesarea and are a fractal within the period, as was the Pentecostal season a fractal at the beginning of the very same sacred period.

The beginning fractal was a fulfillment of the Spring feasts associated with the Pentecostal season. The ending fractal of Caesarea Philippi to the Mount of Transfiguration is also prophetically tied together with the sacred week. At the Mount the Father spoke, as He had done at Christ’s baptism, and as He would just before the cross. The Father audibly spoke three times from the start of the sacred week unto the cross. Once at the baptism, then at the Mount of Transfiguration and then He spoke in the shadow of the approaching cross.

The cross is the omega of the 1,260 days that began at His baptism. The baptism and the cross are specific waymarks of the sacred week of Daniel nine, thus identifying the Mount of Transfiguration as part of the sacred week. If the first and last fulfill waymarks of the prophecy of the sacred week, then the middle waymark must of prophetic necessity do the same.

The baptism is the first angel; the Mount of Transfiguration is the second and the cross is the third. At the Mount, God identified Moses and Elijah as waymarks of the remnant church. The application is tied together with the threefold symbol of Peter, James and John. There were three times that Jesus took Peter, James and John with Him. The first time it was the resurrection of Jairus’ daughter, the second was the Transfiguration and the third was Gethsemane. The first time Peter, James and John witnessed a resurrected twelve-year-old virgin.

The name Jairus means “the enlightener” and “to be luminous and glorious.” Of the three times when Peter, James and John were exclusively guests of Christ, this was the first time, and Jairus’ represents the first angel who lightens the earth with its glory. The twelve-year old virgin represents the virgins who are to be resurrected as the one hundred and forty-four thousand. Christ reached the home of the virgin daughter, after His interaction of a woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years.

A twelve-year old virgin is identified, and then in the next verse a woman who has a blood issue for twelve years is then identified. The woman had the issue of blood the entire life of the virgin. Jesus was about to pass by the woman with the issue of blood, in order to reach the virgin daughter. The woman represents the first angel’s message as represented by the message to Laodicea. Christ was about to resurrect and raise the virgin to life, and the sick woman, the Laodicean woman, still had a brief opportunity to touch Divinity. A child represents the last generation, and Jesus is passing by a sickly woman, Laodicea to raise up the virgin of the last days. When the virgin is resurrected, the woman has been either healed or passed by.

A characteristic of the first angel is fear, and there are two types of fear.

Then Peter, James and John go into the room where the resurrection, symbolized by Christ’s baptism, represented the empowerment of the first and third angels. The Mount of Transfiguration is the second time Peter, James and John are witnesses. The Mount of Transfiguration is the second angel, and when Christ took the same disciples to Gethsemane, it represented the third angel. At the second step, the Mount of Transfiguration there is a “doubling,” for the waymark of the Mount is the middle of the three times that the Father spoke. The first was at His baptism, which aligns with the resurrection of the twelve-year-old virgin, the second was the Mount, and the third was just before the cross. The three times the Father spoke and the three times the three disciples went by themselves with Jesus are tied together by the fact that the second waymark in either line is the Mount of Transfiguration.

Peter, James and John witness the first angel at the resurrection of the virgin, who had been asleep, as was Lazarus. When she awoke, she immediately rose and was given food. When Elijah and Moses are resurrected in Revelation eleven, they immediately rise, and then the Holy Spirit is poured out without measure, representing the virgin’s food. The Mount of Transfiguration was six days after Caesarea Philippi, except when Luke records the events.

Matthew and Mark both say decisively “after six days,” and Luke says “about” eight days. The Bible authors employed two reckonings of time; one called inclusive and the other exclusive. At first glance it might appear as contradictions, but the fact that Luke said “about” identifies that he was speaking in inclusive terms, and when Matthew and Mark say, “after six days,” they are identifying that they were counting whole days, and not the day that started the eight-day period, or the day that ended the eight-day period. The difference produces two numerical symbols of the same period; one is the number eight and the other is the six days.

What is established with the two testimonies of the six or eight day period from Caesarea Philippi and the Mount of Transfiguration is that in the period when Christ seals the one hundred and forty-four thousand, the number eight represents the eight souls on Noah’s Ark, and the six represents the sixth church of Philadelphia, who is destined to be the church that is the eighth, that is of the seven. They are transformed into the eighth at the glorification of Moses, Elijah and Christ. The glorification on the mountain is also typified by the glorification on the mountain in the history of Moses.

When Moses ascended the mountain he took seventy elders and Joshua with him.

The first angel’s message was the resurrection of Jairus’ daughter, aligning with Christ’s baptism. Then six days later, came the Mount of Transfiguration which is the second angel, that led to the cross, which is the third angel. As the second angel, the Mount has a double witness, in that the speaking of the Father at the Mount, connects with a second line of the three. The three times Peter, James and John were exclusive guests of Christ, and the three times the Father spoke, both identify the second manifestation of the Father’s voice, and the second time Jesus took Peter, James and John was the Mount of Transfiguration. The second waymark of the Mount has a double witness of the Father’s voice and the three disciples, for the second message always identifies a “doubling.”

The six-hour-period between the evening and morning sacrifices, which is represented by Matthew and Marks’ six days from Caesarea Philippi and the Mount, are represented by Moses’ six days, until he is called into the cloud on the seventh day.

The line begins with the tarrying time of the second angel, as Moses instructs the seventy elders to “tarry” until he returns. The first six-days in the line are isolated, but still form part of the overall 46 days. The six days are a period that leads to the third test, represented by forty days. The 46 days symbolize the temple, the sixth days are the six hours from Christ’s death to Pentecost, the six hours from His crucifixion to His death, the six hours of Caesarea to Caesarea and the six hours of Peter in the upper room to the temple. Moses is receiving the Law of the covenant, and getting the instructions upon how to raise the temple. Though the Bible says no man has seen God, the elders “saw the God of Israel.” The glorification of God on the mount with Moses and the elders typified the glorification on the Mount of Transfiguration. Both contain the six-day period. Moses’ line includes the tarrying time of the second angel and the full forty-six days representing the temple. The forty days he received the law, represents the sealing.

Peter was at Caesarea Philippi at the third hour, on his way to Caesarea Maritima at the ninth hour and in six to eight days he is at the Mount, tarrying with Moses’ seventy elders when He sees a vision of the glorified Lord, just as Daniel did in chapter ten. Daniel saw the Lord face to face, as did Gideon and the seventy elders. The Mount of Transfiguration is where the Laodicean movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand are transformed into the Philadelphian movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. They become the eighth church that is the sixth church, thus we see six days and eight days.

The six hours from the crucifixion to His death, the six hours of Pentecost, the six hours of Caesarea to Caesarea, the six days to the Mount of Transfiguration and the six days of Moses that led to the forty days are the same line. Between Caesarea Philippi, which is Panium and the Sunday law, the one hundred and forty-four thousand are sealed. That sealing causes a division.

Moses separated from the elders when he said, “Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you.” Moses separated from seventy at the tarrying time, and seventy weeks represents probationary time for the former covenant people. When the seventieth week ended, and that seventieth week was the sacred week that Christ confirmed the covenant with many, Christ then fully separated from the former covenant people. The period when the former covenant people could resolve their issue of blood, which for them was believing they were saved by the blood of Abraham, was over and the virgin of twelve years was resurrected to serve. Once the tarrying time began, Moses received the law of the covenant, and the instructions of raising the temple.

When Peter, James and John were at the Mount, the sealing of God’s people, and their subsequent raising up as an ensign represents those covenant people as the temple of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The eleventh-hour workers are then joined to that temple.

Peter, James and John, as well as Moses represent the “outcasts of Israel,” who are cast out by their brethren which hated them.

The word “joy” occurs numerous times and ways in the Scriptures, as does the word “ashamed.” In the context of Peter’s message from the book of Joel, the shame versus joy is a parallel, such as the wise and the foolish or the wheat and the tares. Shame and joy represent, in the context of Joel, those who have the oil, or the latter rain message, versus those who don’t. It is only when you see this detail that you can get to the deeper meaning of, “Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake.” Those brethren are those who in Spalding and Magan, page one and two, are the “nominal Adventists, like Judas,” that will “betray us to the Catholics,” “for they hated us on account of the Sabbath, for they could not refute it.” Your brethren that hate you, cast you out over the message of the Sabbath of the land, Moses seven times, which cannot be refuted. The point here is that you get cast out over a doctrinal argument, a debate, as Isaiah calls it, and the doctrinal debate is the message of the latter rain.

Joel calls that message “new wine,” and if you have that message, you have joy. If you do not have it, you awaken as the drunkards of Joel do to find that the new wine is cut off from your mouth. At that point you are prophetically “ashamed.” The class that has the oil, has joy and the class that has no oil is ashamed. The oil is also new wine, and it is associated with joy. This is why Isaiah says, “Hear the word of the Lord.” One class chooses to hear, and the other hearkens not to the sound of the trumpet. Isaiah specifically identifies the class who hear, when he states, “ye that tremble at his word.” The Lord gathers those who have been cast out over the message that arrived at 9/11, and at the Sunday law, He gathers Isaiah’s eunuchs, who are represented as dry trees. If they will take hold of the covenant, they will no longer be separated from God’s holy mountain.

A eunuch or a dry tree represent death. A eunuch cannot reproduce and a dry tree has no life. The promise is that if those Gentiles, or eleventh-hour workers will accept the covenant represented by Sabbath, they will have sons and daughters. First He gathers the outcasts of Israel, then lifts those outcasts up as an ensign and then gathers His other flock. The first and second gatherings represent the period from 9/11 unto the Sunday law when the Holy Spirit is sprinkling, and also the period from the Sunday law until Michael stands up and the latter rain is poured out without measure. In both periods the latter rain is a message, which if you have, brings joy, and if you don’t have, brings shame.

The book of Matthew is divided into three lines, that represent the three angels of Revelation fourteen. Each of the three lines also contain fractals of the three angels. The second line from chapter eleven unto chapter twenty-two is the center, for it is the second angel, which is positioned between the first and third angels. The book of Matthew is itself a center line, when we consider chapters eleven through twenty-two in the context of Genesis and Revelation’s covenant chapters.

The center of the twelve covenant chapters is Matthew’s, and the center line of Matthew’s three lines is found in the same twelve chapters. The center of those twelve chapters is the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. That center point is represented by three verses, which align with the three center verses of Genesis and Revelation’s twelve covenant chapters.

Peter is a the center point of the center point of the center point, and he represents the first and last Christian bride. That is the signature of Alpha and Omega. Palmoni also placed His signature upon Peter’s name change, when He designed the enigma of Peter’s name in English. Jesus spoke to Peter in Hebrew, and the conversation was recorded in Greek and thereafter put into English. In English, Palmoni named Peter by using the 16th letter of the English alphabet, followed by the 5th letter, that is followed by the 20th, that is followed by the 5th that is followed by the 18th, fully knowing that when He, as Palmoni created the name that would go from Hebrew, to Greek to English. He also designed that the English name would allow an enigma of multiplying those five letters in order to reach the number one hundred and forty-four thousand. Palmoni, who is also the first and the last, designed that the first of those five and last of the five English letters that make up the name Peter are the 16th and 18th letters, for the name Peter was to occur in Matthew 16:18.

With all of that about Peter, we still need to address the “golden ratio.” The golden ratio is represented by Matthew 16:18, for the ratio is 1.618. The golden ratio is associated with nature’s fractals, and when Palmoni locates Peter in Matthew 16:18, Palmoni is identifying that the prophetic key that is placed upon the shoulder of Eliakim in Isaiah 22:22, and the prophetic keys that are given to Peter and the church in the passage, includes prophetic fractals.

Caesarea Philippi at the third hour unto Caesarea Maritima at the ninth hour represents a fractal of the third hour when Christ was crucified until the ninth hour of Cornelius sending for Peter. The Pentecostal season from the third hour of the crucifixion until Peter in the temple at Pentecost at the ninth hour, is a fractal of the 1,260 days from the cross to Cornelius. The three times the Father spoke is a fractal of the three angels, as is the three times Jesus took only Peter, James and John. The prophetic information that is encoded into the verses where Peter illustrates the one hundred and forty-four thousand is as profound as any truth has ever been, and yet we have not yet placed Peter at Panium in Daniel eleven.

We will continue this study in the next article.
