B e w a r e, that
The Bible and its interpretations in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY as Rules of Implementation of the Ten Commandments are not permanent

 

Moses :
“The secret things belong unto the Lord our God; but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” — Deuteronomy 29 : 29.

 

 

Introduction

We have first to understand that the law in general consists of the Basic Law or the Constitution on the one hand and its By-laws containing all the rules of implementation of the Basic Law on the other hand. The Basic Law or the Constitution contains only a limited number of subjects, to show the characters and will of the Law giver as the owner of the country. Whereas the By-laws contain all the rules of implementation of the Basic Law. Basically the basic Law or the Constitution is permanent, because the character and the will of the Law giver are permanent. But the By-laws containing the rules of implementation of the Basic Law or the Constitution are changeable, because the more the country is growing, the more problems arise, and those must be kept always under the rules of law. And this is the reason why new rules of law are to be created time and again, and the old ones must also be changed or to be succeeded by the new.  

In the kingdom of Heaven our heavenly Father is the Law Giver of the Ten Commandments as the Basic Law or the Constitution. It is the character and the will of God the Father Himself, which is popularly known here on earth among Christians as “the love.” So the Basic law or the Constitution of the Heavenly Kingdom of God should also be called the “Law of love”. Since God the Father is an everlasting God of all the universe, then the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments should have been permanent and everlasting as well.

But as the basic Law of the Ten Commandments needs to be implemented we need, therefore, the rules of implementation of the Basic Law.  And this is the By-Law which is known in the Bible, first by “the prophets” or the writings of the old Testament prophets; secondly by the “testimony” in Isaiah 8 : 20, before the name of Jesus is well-known, and thirdly by the testimony of Jesus in Rev. 12 : 17, and the last is called the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY in the Rev. 19 : 10.

Though the Basic law of the Ten Commandments is permanent and unchangeable for ever more, the Bible and all its interpretations in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY are changeable. Moses of old ever said :

“The secret things belong unto the Lord our God; but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” — Deuteronomy 29 : 29.

Except the secret things which are not found in the Bible, those things which are revealed both in the Bible and in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY in this time of the end belong to all of us , that we may do all the words of the Ten Commandments. This is the main statement coming from Moses himself, who was known ever since long ago as the historian of creation and the law. To this Mrs. White said :

“During the first twenty-five hundred years of human history, there was no written revelation. Those who had been taught of God communicated their knowledge to others, and it was handed down from father to son, through successive generations. The preparation of the written word began in the time of Moses. Inspired revelations were then embodied in an inspired book. This work continued during the long period of 1.600 years, — from Moses, the historian of creation and the Law, to John, the recorder of the most sublime truths of the gospel.” The Great Controversy, p. 7.

Moses is known as author of his five books written after 2.500 years of the creation of the earth. The writing of the whole Bible took 1600 years from Moses up to the writing of the book of Revelation by apostle John in the year 96.

As we are now living in the time of the end, wherein all the secret things of the Bible have been interpreted into the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY of the golden bowl of the prophecy of Zechariah chapter 4, by the end time prophets prophesied in Amos 3 : 6, 7, let us beware that

The Bible and its interpretations
in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY are not permanent

Let us now limit our investigation within only the period of the Laodicean Church, for this is the last Church of this time of the end, first founded in 1844 by Mrs. White upon the Law, the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy of the third angel of Revelation 14, and then followed by Bro. Houteff and his message the Shepherd’s Rod of the angel of Revelation 18 : 1 in 1929. The combination of both messages are now found in the SPIRIT OF PROPHECY publications of Revelation 19 : 10,  and also represented in the “Golden Bowl” of the pictorial prophecy of Zechariah chapter 4.

After the establishment of the Laodicean Church in 1844, then about 19 years later in 1863 the servant of the Lord Mrs. White accompanied by her followers,   they established the Organization of the angel of the Laodicean Church, which is the  General Conference of SDA. So it is how the angel of the Laodicean Church was born for the first time 19 years after the Laodicean Church was founded.

And then in an occasion which was in June 12, 1893 in Wellington, New Zealand, Mrs. White ever said :   

C a s e   1  :

“In all ages of the world there have been men who think they have a work to do for the Lord, and show no respect for those whom the Lord has been using. They do not make right the applications of Scripture they wrest the Scriptures to sustain their own ideas. Whatever may be the claims of those who draw away from the body to proclaim theories of their own inventions, they are in Satan’s service, to get up some new device to divert souls from the truth for this time. Beware of those who arise with a great burden to denounce the Church. ……………

Supposing this spurious message is the one everyone must hear for this time, “Come out of her, my people,” where shall we go to ? Where shall we find the purity, goodness, and holiness where we shall be secure ? Where is the fold where no wolves will enter ?

I tell you, my brethren, the Lord has an organized body through whom He will work ………..” – Review and Herald, vol. 6, p. 515.

C a s e   2  :

Mrs. White said : “The Lord has declared that the history of the past shall be rehearsed as we enter upon the closing work. Every truth that He has given for these last days is to be proclaimed to the world. Every pillar that He has established is to be strengthened. We cannot now enter into any new organization; for this would mean apostasy from the truth.”Manuscript 129, 1905.

Up to the year 1905 the Lord God seemed to be still represented here on earth by His Organization of the angel of the Laodicean Church. But then for how long ….. ? The organized body of the General Conference of SDA mentioned above is not permanent up to the end of time.

C a s e   3  :

Due to the great failures of the Organization of the General Conference of SDA  in their Minneapolis Conference in 1888, the Lord God should have sent to them through Mrs. White in the “Review and Herald” of February 25, 1902 the Call for a Spiritual Revival and Reformation. A portion of the message is in the following words :

God brings against ministers and people the heavy charge of spiritual feebleness, saying, ‘I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of My mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked; I counsel thee to buy of Me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayest see.’

God calls for a spiritual revival and a spiritual reformation. Unless this takes place, those who are lukewarm will continue to grow more abhorrent to the Lord, until He will refuse to acknowledge them as His children.

A revival and a reformation must take place under the ministration of the Holy Spirit. Revival and reformation are two different things. Revival signifies a renewal of spiritual life, a quickening of the powers of mind and heart, a resurrection from spiritual death. Reformation signifies reorganization, a change in ideas and theories, habits and practices. Reformation will not bring forth the good fruit of righteousness unless it is connected with the revival of the Spirit. Revival and reformation are to do their appointed work, and in doing this work they must blend.“ – Review and Herald, February 25, 1902.

Due to the fact that the Organization of the angel of Laodicea had failed to observe the Call for a spiritual revival and reformation, even up to this very moment, it is no wonder that the Lord should have sent Bro. Houteff to offer right to the General Conference leadership in 1929 the message of the Shepherd’s Rod. And since the message was rejected and the servant of the Lord was opposed ever since for good, he was then going to Waco, Texas, to have  the Organization of the angel of Laodicean Church re-organized in 1935 according to the message in the Review and Herald of February 25, 1902. So every present truth believer should have understood that just in that same year in 1935, that the angel of the Laodicean Church should have been spewed out of Jesus’ mouth to meet the fulfillment of the prophecy in the Revelation 3 : 16 and the Testimony for the Church, vol. 6, p. 408. And in the same year the Organization of the General Conference of SDA was then succeeded by The General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA. The problem now is with the Organization of

The establishment of the General Association of
Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA in 1935 is not permanent

Bro. Houteff ever said in October 1935 :

We are happy to announce that the Headquarters office of the sealing message moved from Waco to Mount Carmel Center on September 29 to its new and p e r m a n e n t home location for the proclamation of the message of the “True Witness to the Laodiceans.” Testimonies for the Church, vol. 3, p. 253. Therefore, we request all the brethren in present truth to approach the throne of grace with thanksgiving and praises to our heavenly Father for His merciful kindness and many blessings.” – The Symbolic Code, vol. 1, No. 16, p. 1.

Some of the Brethren took for granted the above statement by Bro. Houteff as well as some of the Seventh-Day Adventists who took Mrs. White ‘s statements here below when she said :

“I tell you, my brethren, the Lord has an organized body through whom He will work ………..” – Review and Herald, vol. 6, p. 515.

“The Lord has declared that the history of the past shall be rehearsed as we enter upon the closing work. Every truth that He has given for these last days is to be proclaimed to the world. Every pillar that He has established is to be strengthened. We cannot now enter into any new organization; for this would mean apostasy from the truth.” – Manuscript 129, 1905.

The problems for us now are  : 

  1. For how long is the Lord to work through His organized body of the General Conference of SDA mentioned by Mrs. White above ? Is He going to work with them up to the end of time ? And
  2. For how long is the Waco, Texas, mentioned by Bro. Houteff above to be a permanent home location for the proclamation of the message of the True Witness to the Laodiceans ? Will it be up to the time of the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom in the Palestine in the future ?

Let us read further in the booklet of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA the first page as here below :

P r e f a c e

Provisional in set-up as well as in name, the Davidian Seventh day Adventist Association exists solely to accomplish a divinely appointed work within the Seventh day Adventist denomination, wherein it therefore strictly confines its activities. As its work there within draws to a close, and the “servant of our God” ( Rev. 7 : 3 ) are sealed, its name will be changed ( Isa. 56 : 5 ; 62 : 2; 65 : 15 ) and its purpose and its work will become all embracing to the gospel ( Matt. 17 : 11; Acts 3 : 21; Isa 61 : 4 – 7 ). Then its Constitution and By-Laws as herein codified will become fully operative.” — The Leviticus of Davidian SDA, p. 2.

From the above statement by Bro. Houteff we know that the establishment of the Waco, Texas, Head Quarters of Davidian SDA in 1935 is provisional, and not permanent. The application of the Constitution and the By-laws of Davidian SDA during the lifetime of the servant of the Lord were not as yet fully operative. Let alone when after he died in 1955. And this is the reason why through prophet Zechariah, the Lord said : “Awake, O sword against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts : smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered : and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.” Zechariah 13 :  7.

That is, with the absent of Bro. Houteff from 1955 up to the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom in the future, the Lord God would have taken the rein in His own hand. And instead of employing ordained ministers of the Mount Carmel Centers in Texas to accomplish a divinely appointed work within the SDA denomination wherein it therefore strictly confines its activities, the Lord would have employed t e a c h e r s  o f  the Shepherd’s Rod of His own appointments, whose ordination are without the laying on of hands. That is, they are not of the Organizational appointments. Read the Acts of the Apostles, p. 110.

Basically the General Association of Davidian SDA is only a re-organized body of the General Conference of SDA according to the Call for a spiritual revival and reformation by Mrs. White in the Review and Herald of February 25, 1902. Its establishment, therefore, was carried out by Bro. Houteff himself, by applying the Constitution and the By-laws of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA, which was codified earlier by himself. We have to understand, therefore, that as well as all the message of the ROD contains the r u l e s of implementation of the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments, then the Constitution and the By-laws of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA as parts of the message of the Shepherd’s Rod, should have been also parts of the rules of implementation of the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments.

We have to understand, therefore, that by failing to apply the Constitution and its By-laws of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA properly after the death of the servant of the Lord, Bro. Houteff in 1955, sin should have again dominated the Waco, Texas, Head Quarters of the Mount Carmel Center of Davidian SDA even up to this very moment. And as long as they persistently continue to defend the present Head Quarters of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA which they had re-established unconstitutionally in 1991, their sins would have prevented them from taking part in the establishment of Davidic Kingdom in the future in the Palestine. 

C o n c l u s i o n

By persisting to defend the presence of the Waco, Texas Head Quarters of Davidian SDA, up to the end of the sealing time of the 144.000 elected saints of God in the future, the present leadership of the General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA and all their followers in the world, would have wittingly annulled the prophetic words of Zechariah 13 : 6, 7 that should have met their fulfillment in this time of the end. They would have persistently said that the prophecy has already met its fulfillment with the Lord Jesus in the Palestine. And then finished. They would never admit that as well as all the prophecies mentioned in Matthew 11 : 13 are to be interpreted in the time of the end by the end time prophets mentioned in  Amos 3 : 7, and then to meet their fulfillment in this time of the end prior to the close of probation in the future. 

If they are truly honest, why do they believe that Elijah the prophet of Old has met his prophetic fulfillment in the person of Bro. Victor T. Houteff in this time of the end ?  Why do they not stop with only John the Baptist in the Palestine, who is the first to meet the fulfillment of the prophecy of Elijah the prophet ? Let us, therefore, understand that as well as Elijah the prophet has a double application : first with John the Baptist in the Palestine and secondly in this time of the end with Bro. Victor T. Houteff ; then is the prophecy of Zechariah 13 : 6, 7 has its double application, first with the Lord Jesus Himself in the past in the Palestine, and secondly is with Bro. Victor. Houteff in this time of the end.

For the close let us ponder for a moment a warning from the Lord Jesus through His divinely appointed servant, Mrs. Ellen G. White when she said :

“We are living in the last days, when error of a most deceptive character is accepted and believed, while truth is discarded. The Lord will hold both ministers and people responsible for the light shining upon them. He calls upon us to work diligently in gathering up the jewels of truth, and placing them in the framework of the gospel.” — Gospel Workers, p. 289.

And lastly to every one of us, we have been warned :

‘IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE NOW FOR TRANGRESSION OF LAW. THE LIGHT SHINES CLEARLY, AND NONE NEED BE IGNORANT, FOR THE GREAT G O D HIMSELF IS MAN’S INSTRUCTOR.”  – Testimony for the Church, p. 162.
