and he addresses each of those and he tries to demonstrate from this that this chapter titled the time in trouble is the the main point of reference for understanding the great time of trouble he does acknowledge there's a little time of trouble but he he builds his foundation for understanding the time of trouble upon the great controversy and I don't have a problem with that what I would where I would say his weakness was is that we are told that we're to bring line upon line precept upon precept and when it comes to prophecy we have been clearly told that prophecies are lines sister white says the same line of prophecy in the book of Daniel is taken up in the book of Revelation sister white says if I can remember this I don't have this quote right in front of me if she says that when the pioneers of the Millerite time period were presenting prophecy she says and here's the quote prophecy was set prophecy was set before the people and prophecy was seen to be a figurative delineation of events leading down to the close of this our history and that's not how she said she's historical events were set before the people and prophecy was seen to be a figurative delineation of events leading down to the close of this earth history the word delineation means to set forth on a line and what she was saying is in the Millerite movement William Miller and his associates would take a line that pointed down to the close of this earth's history and when they were speaking to people they would set historical events on this timeline leading down to the close of this earth's history and demonstrate the fulfillment of prophecy Napoleon having the Pope tape taken captive they'd put on that line leading down to the close of this earth's history they'd put a mark and say 1798 the 1260 years finished the papacy receives its deadly wound they'd put a line and mark at 1833 falling of the stars historical events they put a line 8070 destruction of Jerusalem a fulfillment of prophecy a historical event what I want you to see here is that prophecy is represented as taking place on a timeline and when it comes to these end time events were to bring the different portions of Scripture and spirit of prophecy together that give us information about prophecy were to bring these different lines together and correctly align them so when this brother Anderson deals with the personation of Christ in the time of trouble he looks at the great controversies chapter on the time of trouble and build tries to build his defense for his conclusion out of that one chapter where I don't have a problem using that chapter but we have a responsibility if we're going to look at that correctly to bring all the information about the time of trouble that the
