Now we understand that some may have difficulty in accepting the fact that the Great Company is a heavenly class (especially among our JW friends), it appears some do not fully comprehend the significance of the surrender of one’s restituional life rights. We believe the answer lies in a proper comprehension of the “one baptism” in which all the fully consecrated participate. What baptism is this? “Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ…

The Great Company, continued In the tabernacle picture, “the scapegoat was charged with the iniquities of the children of Israel, but was not put to death, and the blood was not taken into the Most Holy. This shows that the scapegoat was not a sacrifice for sins. Instead, the scapegoat was taken into the wilderness, and left there. The members of the Great Company have no part in the sin offering. Instead they are delivered over to Satan for the…

The Great Company “Our thought is that Elisha typifies two classes: first he typifies those associated with the Elijah class (the Great Company); and secondly after the taking of Elijah up in the whirlwind and re-crossing the Jordan (picturing the death of the Great Company) he becomes a type of those associated with the dispensing of restitution blessings (i.e. the Ancient Worthies). R5780:1, R4758:2; Q305:2; R3429:3, R3417:1; Q260:3 However here our central focus will be on the Great Company or…

Continued from previous post, “And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.” (Rev 8:1) Adequate consideration having been given to the last events of the Lord’s life at the First Advent, and to the experience of the apostles at that time—these being a basis for understanding the future period of silence referred to in the Apocalypse, the silence that will occur at this end of the age—attention will…

“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.” (Rev 8:1) “With the opening of the previous six seals, John witnessed startling events, but when the seventh seal is broken—the last and the most significant of a series because the others led up to it— What happens? Nothing! This example of the Apostle’s patient obedience, this demonstration of loyalty—that is, his waiting in the midst of profound silence for…

As was stated previously “Waters are to be separated from waters, people from people” It will not be merely the true Church which is divided, separated, (the “little flock” from the great company), but so too the professing or nominal church. The truths then being espoused by the Lord’s faithful and their stand in defiance of orthodoxy will make manifest just who the true followers of the Lord are and hence forth all the truly noble (honest minded) of the…

WHAT ELIJAH’S MANTLE MAY SIGNIFY “We answer; we believe that the peoples of earth, the public in general, are to be judged by the truth. The people are represented by waters. It would seem that in some way the people are to be judged and tested; and that a division of public sentiment is to be caused, in connection with the truth. Waters are to be separated from waters, people from people, and the truth being received by some and…

In our previous post we mention how Elijah would come prior to the great and dreadful day of the Lord (the Day of Vengeance) NOT the literal Elijah, but the antitypical Elijah, the real or greater Elijah the true Church in the flesh and that as such they would fail in their efforts at turning the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers and so as was prophesied by the Prophet…

It is expected that by this time (i.e. during the Hour of Trial) that the great signs and miraculous wonders first begun in the Church of England (the two horned beast which came up out of the earth, Rev 13:11, 13) would have spread throughout all of Christendom and that the False Prophet would be the chief or prominent figure in the propagation and operation of these deceiving wonders. Now understand this false prophet is known only as such by…

In order for us to get a good picture of the third group of individuals who will enter the great tribulation (viz., the Great Company or as some like to refer to them the Tribulation Saints) we will need to back track a bit and establish events leading up to this time. “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. And he will turn the hearts of the…
