examine ourselves in the light We have learned who we are…God’s purposed called election! We have learned what we are…God’s people which signify accord by truth! We have learned when we are…God’s people in the last days! We have learned why we are…God’s people who unveil unchangeable truth! We have learned where we are…or have we? The power of truth lies in its revelation, in its inspiration. America and the rest of the world is experiencing what we know to be the final shaking. Many people will pull away from this movement having all manner of reasons, some are personal (hurt feelings) and others are doctrinal (willing ignorance of truth). Everyone has to make their choice. It is their right to do so. These are not the issues to be addressed in the last days. God’s word says leave these to their idols. There are greater matters to be considered. The Lord has been, and is still, leading this present reformatory movement. One of the keys to understanding Revelation is to realize that it is structured as a series of visions based around the number seven. It must also be understood that as with many Old Testament prophecies, the book of Revelation is not strictly chronological in its fulfilment. Sometimes we read something which is actually the final picture, and then we read how this situation came about. At other times, we find a series of visions give us as it were 'snapshots' of different aspects of the same process. The seven final visions are introduced by the category "And I saw...". Each show different aspects of the process of setting up the Kingdom. The seventh thousand year is climactic! The ”sevens” are: the churches, the letters, the Spirits, the lampstands, the stars, the seals, the horns, the eyes, the angels, the trumpets, the thunders, the heads, the crowns, the plagues, the vials, the hills, the kings. Of these only the thunders utterances are not yet known…not yet. We know the nature of the symbol of thunder…a voice from heaven. The seven thunders are seven waymarks deemed to be a delineation of events which would transpire under the first and second angels’ messages before midnight. There is no prophetic timeline given, but the light of truth is unfolding in regard to and in parallel with what the world is proposing to establish in the last days. We need more oil and a deeper awakening. We must leave off subjects kindled with a strange fire. The terrors of our day are being spoken by the world. Are we hearing what is being said? In the unfolding of new light not all things are, at first, clearly seen. Also, we know that the light which shines in the fresh unfolding of truth glorifies the old and that any who rejects or neglects the new does not really possess the old. We have the solution to this dilemma…a more thoughtful reading of the bible and the Spirit of Prophecy. Let’s read… Revelation 10: 1. And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: 2.  And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, 3.  And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4.  And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 5.  And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6.  And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: 7.  But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. 8.  And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth. 9.  And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. 10.  And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter. 11.  And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. There is a deep connection between these passages in Revelation and Daniel chapter 12 which cannot be overlooked. Daniel is sealed until the time of the end. It is the little book open in the hand of the mighty angel in Revelation 10. Daniel is unsealed in the Revelation…time prophecy no longer. But, just as Daniel was sealed, so too are those things which the seven thunders uttered. It then follows that just as the book of Daniel was unsealed prophetically in history, so too are the seven thunders to be unsealed in our history eventfully in a way providenced by God. The Lord is leading us. The time for our understanding in now. SOP - The mighty angel who instructed John was no less a personage than Jesus Christ. Setting His right foot on the sea, and His left upon the dry land, right foot on sea, left foot on dry land shows the part which He is acting in the closing scenes of the great controversy with Satan. This position denotes His supreme power and authority over the whole earth. The controversy has waxed stronger and more determined from age to age, and will continue to do so, to the concluding scenes when the masterly working of the powers of darkness shall reach their height. Satan, united with evil men, will deceive the whole world and the churches who receive not the love of the truth. But the mighty angel demands attention. He cries with a loud voice. He is to show the power and authority of His voice to those who have united with Satan to oppose the truth. After these seven thunders uttered their voices, the injunction comes to John as to Daniel in regard to the little book: “Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered” (Revelation 10:4). These relate to future events which will be disclosed in their order. Daniel shall stand in his lot at the end of the days. John sees the little book unsealed. Then Daniel's prophecies have their proper place in the first, second, and third angels’ messages to be given to the world. The unsealing of the little book was the message in relation to time. 1MR 99.1 (see CTr 344.2 - 344.6) We are now about to see those concluding scenes being spoken of. That is, we are on the verge of the Sunday law crisis that reveals those who are on the side of God and those who are on the side of Satan. It is Christ who is acting His part in the closing scenes. How does He do this? This is symbolically represented by His standing with His right foot on the sea and His left upon dry land. He is ready to give a loud cry. He stands ready to show His power and authority to those opposed to the true Sabbath. The disclosing of the thunders is referring to our time. The seven thunders tell of and show a relationship to the events that are future. It is the order of events that transpire under the first and second angels’ messages that will be disclosed, giving light upon future events - the events that we are now a part of. This is then how Daniel’s prophecies will have their proper place in the giving of all three angel’s messages to the world.The special light given to John which was expressed in the seven thunders was a delineation of events which would transpire under the first and second angels’ messages. It was not best for the people to know these things, for their faith must necessarily be tested. In the order of God most wonderful and advanced truths would be proclaimed. The first and second angels’ messages were to be proclaimed, but no further light was to be revealed before these messages had done their specific work. This is represented by the Angel standing with one foot on the sea, proclaiming with a most solemn oath that time should be no longer. (19MR 320.3) Where are we? We are in the time and events of the revealing of the secrecies of the thunders!

the Greek Empire after Alexander the Great This vision is layered with prophetic truth. Spiritual discernment uses the natural characteristics of a creature in prophecy, each detail can reveal spiritual and historical insight. Daniel 7:6 Let’s reason the natural characteristics of the leopard and how they prophetically portray the nature of the Greek empire, especially under Alexander the Great, and they reveal deeper end-time patterns. Natural traits show the leopard is known for stealth, speed, and lethal precision. It strikes suddenly, often from an unexpected direction, and are highly adaptable to different environments. Prophetic fulfillment corresponds to Alexander the Great’s lightning-fast military conquests. Within a short time, he overthrew the mighty Persian Empire and extended his dominion from Greece to India. Spiritual insight shows this swift expansion mirrors how certain end-time deceptions and spiritual movements will emerge suddenly and spread rapidly, seducing many before they realize what is happening. Matthew 24:24 The leopard reflects the power of ideas to conquer minds with speed and subtlety - just as Hellenistic culture permeated nations long after the military campaigns ended. Wings represent swiftness and heavenly elevation, but in this case, they are not eagle’s wings like Babylon but those of a common bird, indicating less earthly ambition. Prophetically, the four wings intensify the theme of rapid conquest. Alexander moved with extraordinary velocity. The deeper meaning suggests that the kingdom’s momentum was unnaturally fast, driven by divine permission as “dominion was given to it”. This shows how God sovereignly allows the rise of empires - even when they embody worldly wisdom and ambition - as part of His unfolding plan. A beast with multiple heads can see in many directions, implying divided authority, multiplicity of thought, division of power. Prophecy was confirmed after Alexander’s death. His empire was divided among his four generals: Cassander, Lysimachus, Seleucus, and Ptolemy. The four heads represent these divisions. End-time parallel shows how earthly power, when rooted in human glory, cannot sustain unity. Likewise, end-time kingdoms and false religious systems will fragment, though they may appear united at first. Revelation 17:12–13 Can the leopard change its spots? An unchanging nature, concerning sin or character. The prophetic insight here worthy of study. The Greek empire spread was not just territory, but a worldview – Hellenism - centered on human reason, aesthetics, philosophy, and pleasure. These “spots” were not easily removed and remain embedded in modern culture, education, and even theology today. The spiritual warning in the vision: end-time believers must discern how the "spots" of Hellenistic thinking - self-glory, intellectual pride, moral compromise - have infiltrated the church. The leopard’s enduring pattern warns us that cultural corruption is persistent and must be overcome by transformation, not adaptation. Romans 12:2 Here’s the heaviness of the vision…dominion was given to it. The leopard did not seize dominion solely by human might - God gave it. This shows divine sovereignty behind human history. As with all kingdoms, God useseven fallen powers to fulfill His purposes. The Greek empire spread the Greek language, which later enabled the rapid spread of the gospel, the New Testament was written in Greek. So, the leopard, though representing a carnal kingdom, indirectly prepared the way for the Messiah’s message to reach the world. The leopard not only portrays the Greek empire but serves as a type of deceptive, seductive world systems in the last days. Systems that conquer not by brute force but by intellectual seduction, culture, and false unity. Just as Greece conquered with culture more than swords, so too will the final antichrist systems seduce rather than destroy, unless resisted by truth. Listen to the repetition of lies coming from American so-called leadership. Look how the executive orders conflict with constitutional declarations. “The beast I saw was like a leopard...” This shows that the final kingdom will bear the characteristics of Greece - stealth, speed, cultural domination, and subtle corruption. It will look beautiful and wise, but it will devour the souls of men. The remnant must discern the leopard spirit at work in education, media, religion, and even false spiritual movements.

77 times The Lost Verse, the Last Judgment, and the Power of Prophetic Precision Today we are resuming our verse-by-verse breakdown of the 2300-day prophecy. But before we dive back into the text, I want to briefly interject with something that sparked deeper reflection. Recently, a friend sent me a video and asked,  “Is this  true?”  She knew I loved to study the Word and considered me a trustworthy Bible student. In the video, a pastor said,   “Today we are going to unpack…Matthew 18 verses 10 through 14…(but) as we go through this text, you will not  see verse 11…I teach out of the ESV because verse 11 was redacted from the scriptures because it was not part of the original manuscripts of the Bible.”   That caught my attention. As I researched his claim, I discovered that the ESV (English Standard Version) does indeed draw from Greek manuscripts that omit certain verses—one of which is Matthew 18:11.   “For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.”   That’s no minor omission - it states Christ’s mission with unmistakable clarity and power. Yet out of 18 Bible versions I compared,  4 of them omit this crucial verse , including the ESV and the NIV. This single verse encapsulates the very heart of Christ’s mission. Its removal isn’t just a scholarly concern—it carries spiritual consequences. When you  remove the purpose , you  distort the plan — and when you distort the plan, you risk  severing the prophetic thread that ties Scripture together.   And that led me to dig deeper. Just a few verses later, in the King James version:   “Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.”(Matthew 18:21, 22, KJV)   Most interpret this as a call to unlimited forgiveness, but  Jesus was also invoking a prophetic principle —specifically, the  490-year prophecy of Daniel 9 , a probationary period for national Israel. However, in the  ESV and several modern translations , this number is changed to  “seventy-seven times” —a subtle but significant shift that  obscures the direct prophetic connection .   Instead of pointing back to the  490-year timeframe  that highlights God's long-suffering mercy and covenant dealings with Israel, this change reduces the verse to merely symbolic forgiveness.   Yet Jesus’ words were carefully chosen. His reference wasn’t arbitrary—it was rooted in  prophetic history . And that’s why understanding the original phrasing matters so deeply. When translations alter key terms, they can unintentionally  blur the connections  between prophecy, grace, and the divine timeline.   “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy , God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” (Revelation 22:18-20)   That’s why it’s vital to study with tools that preserve the prophetic structure of Scripture. The  King James Bible , in harmony with a  Strong’s Concordance , gives readers direct access to the original Hebrew and Greek meanings—ensuring that vital truths, like the “seventy times seven,” are not lost in translation.   “I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.”(Matthew 18:22)   But the phrase  “seven times”  reaches even deeper: the  curses and blessings of Leviticus 26 . God warns four times that if Israel walked contrary to God,   “I will punish you seven times more for your sins.”(Leviticus 26:18, 21, 24, 28)   Here,  “seven times”  is more than just numerical, nor just about punishment, but a  measured, complete period of redemptive discipline —a shaking, sifting, and ultimately sealing process. God was not aiming to destroy His people, but to  purify and prepare them for restoration.   The same principle was at work during the rebuilding of the literal temple in  457 B.C. , which marked the beginning of the 490-year prophecy. Christ was preparing not just a physical temple, but a  spiritual temple —His  church —to be fully established by  34 A.D. Jesus hinted at this dual meaning in  John 2:19 : “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”   While His listeners thought He meant the physical temple, He was speaking  both literally and prophetically . Literally, He would rest in the tomb for  three days . But prophetically, using the  day-for-a-year  principle (Numbers 14:34; Ezekiel 4:6), those three days symbolized  three years, days symbolizing the remaining three years of Christ’s ministry to the Jewish nation, culminating in 34 A.D. when the gospel commission shifted to the Gentiles.   On a personal level, this shows that the “ seven times ” was never punishment for punishment’s sake, but a  refining fire . A period of testing, shaking, and restoration—first for Israel, and now for us.   “As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.”(Revelation 3:19)   When seen through the lens of history, prophecy, and personal sanctification, the “seven times” becomes a powerful framework for understanding God's justice, mercy, and His call to obedience. The number seven in Scripture consistently represents  completion, perfection, and divine fulfillment . Thus, in Matthew 18:22, when Jesus said, “until seventy times seven,” He was alluding not just to unlimited forgiveness, but also to the cleansing and probationary work of God—both personally and corporately—in preparing a pure people for His kingdom . Individually, this speaks to the present reality of the investigative judgment, where each believer is being examined in the heavenly sanctuary. Our faith, motives, and lives are being brought into review—not to condemn, but to cleanse, refine, and seal us for the soon return of Christ.
