The Hidden History of Verse Forty - Number One

In Revelation chapter five, the Lion of the tribe of Judah represents Christ’s position as the one who prevailed to seal and unseal God’s Word according to His will. In 1989, one hundred and twenty-six years after the rebellion of 1863, the Lion of the tribe of Judah unsealed the last six verses of Daniel chapter eleven. Those verses begin with the deadly wound of the papacy in 1798, and introduce the testimony of how the papal wound is to be healed and beyond that to the final deadly wound of the papacy. The verses begin where they end; with the judgment of papal Rome.

Those six verses describe the healing of the papacy’s deadly wound, and also how the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and false prophet lead the world to Armageddon, which is identified in verse forty-five as “between the seas and the glorious holy mountain.”

Alpha and Omega represents Christ’s character of always illustrating the end with the beginning. The reform movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is the movement of the third angel, which is the ending movement that was prefigured by its beginning, which was the Millerite movement of the first and second angels. The Millerite movement began at the time of the end in 1798, which is where the last six verses of Daniel eleven begins, and the movement ended at the opening of judgment on October 22, 1844. The movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand ends at the Sunday law in the United States.

At the beginning of the movement at the time of the end in 1989, the Lion of the tribe of Judah unsealed the last six verses of Daniel eleven, and at the ending of the movement, just before the Sunday law, He unseals the hidden history of verse forty of Daniel eleven. Sister White’s commentary of what part of Daniel is unsealed addresses the unsealing in 1989, and also the unsealing that began in July of 2023.

The portion of the book of Daniel that related to the last days in 1989 was the last six verses of chapter eleven, and as the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand reaches the ending of their movement, the portion of the book of Daniel that is unsealed is the hidden history of verse forty, which represents the history of 1989 unto the Sunday law in the United States. The hidden history of verse forty is the history of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. Every prophet provides witness to that period.

In the passage, an increase of knowledge that “is to prepare a people to stand in the last days,” represents the unsealing of the last six verses in 1989, and again it represents the unsealing of the hidden history of verse forty. In both histories inspiration identifies that there is to be an increase of knowledge upon the papal power and the Sunday law. In both the beginning and ending of the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand the increase of knowledge produces a three-step testing process, as represented in Daniel chapter twelve.

As with all the sacred reform movements the three steps represented by Daniel as “purified, and made white, and tried” represent the waymark of the descent of a Divine symbol, followed by the testing of a failed prediction, followed by a third litmus test which manifests the character of the two classes that are developed based upon their acceptance of, or their rejection of, the unsealed increase of knowledge. With the beginning of the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, the three steps were September 11, 2001, followed by July 18, 2020, and then the Sunday law. At the ending of that very same movement the three steps are July 2023, the arrival of the Midnight Cry message and the Sunday law.

The message that prepares God’s people to stand that was unsealed in July 2023 contains several lines of prophetic truth, and included with those lines is Ezekiel’s dead dry bones in chapter thirty-seven. Ezekiel presents two messages. The first message brings the bones back together, but it was not until the second message that Israel stood upon its feet as a mighty army. The two witnesses of Revelation chapter eleven stood up when they were filled with the Holy Spirit.

Ezekiel teaches the same truth.

When Sister White says “by the increase of knowledge a people is to be prepared to stand in the latter days.” The increase of knowledge is identified as “oil” in the parable of the ten virgins, and the “oil” represents “the messages of God’s Spirit” and also “the Holy Spirit,” as well as “character.”

Between July 2023 and the soon-coming Sunday law there is an increase of knowledge that brings God’s people to life, and they stand up. They stand up representing that they have the “oil” of the message that was unsealed at that time. They stand up when they have the Holy Spirit within their vessels, and they stand up when they have a character prepared for the seal of God.

The first testing step that began in July 2023, was followed by a period that allows those candidates to accept or reject the oil. Those that accept are sealed and are then lifted up as an ensign at the soon-coming Sunday law. Those who reject the oil, receive strong delusion.

Those candidates were awakened out of spiritual sleep in July 2023, and they then were confronted with the final testing process before the close of their individual probation. The testing process was set within the context of a prophetic test associated with the formation of the image of the beast, during the time when those very candidates were to come back to life and form the image of Christ within. The prophetic structure where the test is to be accomplished is the history of 1989 unto the Sunday law. The inability of those candidates to wake up led the Lord to allow heresies to come in.

All the prophets address the last days, so in these last days, in July of 2023, the Lord attempted to “arouse” His people, but His efforts failed, and He allowed the first controversy over a symbol of Rome in Advent history to be repeated as a warning of the nearness of the end. He did this, even though “precious light” had “come, appropriate for this time.” The light that arrived in July 2023 is “Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us.” That light should have led “us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examinations of the positions which we hold.”

The hidden history of verse forty is represented in verses ten through fifteen of Daniel eleven, for Alpha and Omega illustrated the end of Daniel’s final prophecy, with its beginning. Leading up to the disappointment of July 18, 2020, Satan had introduced confusion over verses ten through fifteen, for he knew the beginning of the chapter was the key to represent the end of the chapter. Then the original controversy of verse fourteen was introduced.

It is obvious by the satanic attempts to confuse the meaning and purpose of those verses, that they are an important part of the testing process that is now sifting the candidates to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand. Sister White emphasizes that the history represented in Daniel eleven that has been fulfilled before the time of the end in 1798 is repeated in the final six verses.

I contend that all the history represented in verses one through thirty-nine are repeated in the last six verses of the chapter. I also contend that the history of the last days, which is the history of the conclusion of the judgment which began on October 22, 1844, is represented with two primary prophetic periods. The first period represents the judgment that is accomplished upon the house of God, that is then followed by a period when judgment is accomplished for those outside of the house of God. The first period began in 1989 and ends at the Sunday law in the United States, which in turn marks the beginning of the second period which concludes when Michael stands up and human probation closes. The hidden history of verse forty also begins in 1989, and ends in verse forty-one, which is the Sunday law in the United States.

That is the same history as verse ten through fifteen of the same chapter. That history parallels the history of the Millerites from the time of the end in 1798, until judgment began on October 22, 1844. Those two histories run parallel with the prophetic history that began at the birth of Christ and concluded at the cross.

The history beginning in 1989, includes the testing period that began on September 11, 2001, as typified by the period of testing that began on August 11, 1840 and the testing period that began at Christ’s baptism. The formation of the image of the beast has been typified by several lines of prophetic history. One of those representations of the same period of time is the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand that began on September 11, 2001 and is finished at the soon coming Sunday law. The hidden history of verse forty can also be overlaid with the line of October 22, 1844 until the rebellion of 1863.

October 22, 1844 marked the arrival of the third angel. As with the arrival of any prophetic angel, he had a message which was to be eaten, but it was not to be; and Philadelphian Millerism changed unto Laodicean Millerism, in advance of 1863, when they formally took the name Seventh-day Adventist and began to wander in the wilderness of rebellion to this very day. The history of 1844 unto 1863 represents those who reject the calling to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand. They are Daniel’s wicked in chapter twelve, Jeremiah’s assembly of mockers, John’s synagogue of Satan and Matthew’s foolish virgins.

The warning message represented by Christ as the “abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet” represents a warning to flee in advance of the destruction and scattering that is to follow. In the year 66 AD, the Roman general Cestius fulfilled that warning to the Christians of the era of pagan Rome. In the first century the apostle Paul recorded the same warning for the Christians that would suffer during the era of papal Rome. The warning for Sabbath-keepers to move out of the cities and live in the country came in 1888, the same year as the Blair Bill, the first attempt to establish Sunday as the National Day of Rest. The Blair Bill was the warning to flee in fulfillment of Christ’s reference of Daniel’s abomination of desolation.

As with Cestius in the year 66 AD, the Blair Bill was providentially withdrawn. 1888 typifies September 11, 2001, for Sister White marks the descent of the angel of Revelation eighteen in both histories. The warning to flee the cities in the last days became in force on September 11, 2001. Therefore, the Blair Bill of 1888, typified the Patriot Act of 2001. The angel who descended on September 11, 2001 proclaims the final warning message in the first three verses of Revelation eighteen, and the final warning message is also the third angel’s message, even though the message represented by the third angel in chapter fourteen is not the same expressions of truth as in chapter eighteen. Line upon line they are the same warning message.

The abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet was a sign given by Christ that identified when His people were to flee for their protection. It is a warning message, and therefore must be the final warning message, though it is expressed with different words than the message represented in chapter fourteen as well as chapter eighteen of Revelation. The history that begins in verse sixteen, of Jeremiah fifteen, is the same prophetic period of the warning testing message. It begins when Jeremiah eats God’s Word, and that occurs when the angel descends, as He did when the great buildings of New York City came down.

When Jeremiah proclaims, “Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart,” he represents Daniel’s first test upon diet in chapter one, and John in chapter ten of Revelation taking the book out of the angel’s hand and eating it. The eating of the message begins when an angel arrives, and when the angel arrives there is a testing prophecy that is unsealed. When the angel arrives the first testing period begins and it ends when the second testing period begins, and when Michael stands up, the second testing period ends.

When the angel arrives, the latter rain begins to fall.

The latter rain is received by those who walk in Jeremiah’s old paths.

The “trumpet” the “watchmen” sound is the Laodicean message, that Jones and Waggoner presented in 1888.

On September 11, 2001 the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand began. A warning message to Laodicea was proclaimed.

The warning to Laodicea is the sound of Jeremiah’s watchmen’s trumpet that the Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist church refuses to hear. It is the warning to flee the cities for country property in advance of the soon coming Sunday law.

What I just stated concerning these various prophetic lines, was an attempt to stimulate your discernment in an attempt to encourage you to truly test what I am about to write. Perhaps the most important characteristic of the image to and of the beast is that there are two formations of an image of and to the beast in the last days. The first, in the United States, and thereafter in the nations of the world.

There are certain prophetic characteristics associated with the image to and of the beast that are required to rightly apply if we are to navigate through the prophetic testing process of this image of Rome. A second important element of the testing period of the image of the beast (that can be shown on several witnesses), is that the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand occurs in the period of the image of the beast test in the United States, and that the period of the image of the beast test in the nations of the world is when God’s other children who are still in Babylon at the time of that Sunday law (represented by 321), are gathered into the fold.

The image of the beast represents two specific interconnected periods of testing time, and those two testing times also represent the final gathering of the one hundred and forty-four thousand of Revelation chapter seven, followed by the great multitude in the very same chapter.

At the Sunday law the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven of Revelation chapter thirteen. It then goes forth to deceive all the nations of the world saying to those nations that they should also make a worldwide image to the beast, as the United States just did. The period that begins at the Sunday law, represented by Constantine’s Sunday law of 321, ends when the final nation kneels to papal Rome, where the Sunday law of 538 is represented, for in chapter thirteen the United States has the power to bring the image to the beast to life and cause it to speak. The period begins with the Sunday law of 321 and ends with the Sunday law of 538.

In 2001 the government of the United States “spoke” the Patriot Act into law.
