The establishment of Davidian SDA
Headquarters in Waco, Texas in 1991 is illegal
( Part 2 )

 

Long before Bro. Houteff died in 1955 he had warned us of an antitypical Sanhedrin to emerge in this time of the end when he said :

“Everything that can be done against God’s message of today will be done with even a greater vengeance than was manifest against Heaven’s message in the days of Christ’s first advent, for the Devil knows that if he loses now, he loses forever — that he is to have no other chance. Unparalleled, therefore, is the urgency that every eleventh-hour church member now quickly and solidly brace himself against the Enemy’s effort to deliver a knockout blow. We must be alert, too, to realize that the blow is to come from surprisingly unsuspected foes — from professed friends of the gospel, who are no less pious than were the priests in Christ’s day.The White House Recruiter, p. 33.

This statement by the servant of the Lord in fact has met its fulfillment after his death in 1955. And every one of us knows for sure that the failures of Mrs. Houteff as vice-President and her fellow workers up to the dissolution of Mt. Carmel Center in 1962, is indeed the result of the knockout blows delivered at them by the Enemy. Even the sale of all the assets of Mt. Carmel center to the Presbyterian Church, who had later dominated the location for nearly 30 years up to 1991, is indeed to show us that the reorganized body of the General Conference of SDA ever since 1935 in Waco, Texas should have come to its end for good.

But later with the emergence of a new Davidian SDA Headquarters ever since 1991 in Waco, Texas just at the original site of the first Headquarters of Davidian SDA of the servant of the Lord, after so many years of its dissolution, the true intelligent Davidian SDA would have questioned to himself : Is that a new establishment of Davidian SDA Head Quarters, or a mere continuation of the Original Headquarters of Davidian SDA of Brother Houteff ?

Since the establishment of the Headquarters in 1991 is based on the rules of implementation in the Leviticus of Davidian SDA, they should have understood that they could not make themselves to succeed Houteff and his work. Because there is no single statement from the prophecy to direct us to that end. Houteff had died in 1955, to be succeeded by his vice President Mrs. Houteff. Mrs. Houteff later dissolved the Organization, and sold the whole assets to the Presbyterian Church in 1962. And after about 30 years later most of the assets were successfully bought back, and then re-established as a successor of the Organization of God based upon the Constitution and the By-law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA.   

How could they promote themselves as the successor, to have a Vice President in their midst and not a President ? Whom are they to succeed ? Are they to succeed Mrs. Houteff after her apostate and falling away from the truth, or are they to succeed the Presbyterian Church ? How could they be to succeed the Davidian SDA HQ, whereas the Head Quarters with all the assets have been dissolved and sold to the Presbyterian Church for about 30 years long ?  Whereas they are just the new comers to emerge in 1991, to buy back most of the assets and then to establish themselves, instead of as a new establishment, they just promoted themselves as the successor of Bro. Houteff and his organization for the rest of the sealing time in this time of the end ?   

Vice President is to succeed the President when he is temporary absent for any reason. When the President died, he could be temporary succeeded by his Vice President until the next President to be chosen. But when the President died, and the Vice President also failed to carry out his/or her work, then there must need of a process of reorganization. But how could it be when not only the President died, and the Vice President failed to carry out her work, but even the whole Organization was dissolved and sold to the public. Can it be that such an Organization which is already gone for good from the face of the earth, suddenly emerged at its original location of old with a new management with only a Vice President on the top of leadership ?  Which President is he to represent or to succeed ?  Is this not the acts of adding to and subtracting from the message of the Rod as those prohibited by the servant of the Lord stated in the Symbolic Code, Vol. 1, No. 4, p. 1  or in the book of Revelation 22 : 18, 19 ?

The servant of the Lord had ever warned us before : “We must be alert, too, to realize that the blow is to come from surprisingly unsuspected foes — from professed friends of the gospel, who are no less pious than were the priests in Christ’s day.“ — The White House Recruiter, p. 33.

The priests in Christ’s day have been well known of their narrow minded fundamentalism. Whereas our professed friends of the gospel today are no less pious than were the priests of the Sanhedrin of the past. Are we still doubting if the present leadership of the Head Quarters in  Waco, Texas is the antitypical Sanhedrin of today ?  Or else who are they ?  Do you think you have been assured membership in the company of the 144.000 elects of God, so that no more need to care of those professed friends of the gospel ? Don’t you know that they have successfully knocked out all those who have been up to now affiliated with them ?

The death of Bro. Houteff, as President and the servant of the Lord was ever prophesied long beforehand by prophet Zechariah. We read it in Zechariah 13 : 7 here below :

“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, after the death of Bro. Houteff, as the shepherd, the Lord God Himself would have turned His hand upon the little ones. This means that the Lord God would have taken the rein in His own hand, and no more through His Organization in Waco,Texas. Since there are two peoples here to identify : first the greater ones of those Mount Carmel Centers on the one side, and then “the little ones” of those smaller Associations of Davidian SDA, who have ever survived the death of Bro. Houteff and his General Association of DSDA in 1955 , then we may be sure that the Lord God would have nothing more to do with those greater ones of the Mount Carmel Centers of Davidian SDA in USA, who are : (1). the General Association of Davidian SDA in Elk, Texas, USA., (2) the General Association of Davidian SDA in Salem, South Carolina, USA, (3). The General Association of Davidian SDA in Mountain Dale, New York, and (4)  the General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, now in USA. 

But the problem now is how is the Lord to carry out His purpose to consolidate all the associations of Davidian SDA in the whole world of Laodicea today ? To this end the Lord God Himself through His servant Zechariah the prophet said : “I will turn mine hand upon the little ones !”

Mrs. White had ever before told us in the following  words :

“It is a fatal mistake to suppose that the work of soul saving depends alone upon the ministry (organization) ………. God will send forth into His vineyard many who have not been dedicated to the ministry by the laying on of hands.” The Acts of the Apostles, p. 110. (In brackets added).

These last appointees of God would never be found working with any Head Quarters of Davidian SDA mentioned above, because their dedication to the ministry was not by the laying on of hand before their congregation in the Church. And that is the reason why they are always rejected by the majority of our people. However through their services may we understand that the Lord is now taking the rein in His own hands.

Regarding those whom the Lord appoints to accomplish His sealing message from now on to the future

The servant of the Lord Bro. Houteff said :

“……… we must, therefore, as t e a c h e r s  of The Shepherd’s Rod ( the official publications of Davidian SDA Association ) t e a c h  o n l y in the light of the Rod those passages which in one way or another need to be interpreted. Thus only will all Present Truth believers ever become of the same mind, seeing eye to eye and speaking the same things ( 1 Cor. 1 : 10; 1 Pet. 3 : 8; Isa. 52 : 8 ).”Fundamental Beliefs  of Davidian SDA, p. 27.

From all the functional jobs for the new Testament Churches mentioned by  apostle Paul in Ephesian 4 : 11, which consist of : apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers,  the job of “t e a c h e r s” as the lowest ranking one seemed to be more favorable to the Lord Jesus to represent Him in this time of the end, than of all other jobs mentioned above.  

We all know how difficult it is to cope with present truth believers, who are now scattered in many places of the Davidian in the whole world today. Whereas after the death of Bro. Houteff in 1955 the Davidian SDA  have been divided into at least four Headquarters of General Associations of Davidian SDA in USA., and their Associations of Davidian SDA scattered in many places in the world. And even in the Philippine there is a self-proclaimed prophet of the antitypical Elijah the Tishbite and his followers in several parts of the Davidian in the world, who also profess themselves to be Rod believers of this time of the end.

But praise to the Lord, that long before he died in 1955 Bro. Houteff had already warned us through the booklet : Fundamental Beliefs of Davidian SDA, p. 27 that o n l y  t e a c h e r s  of the Shepherd’s Rod with their precious light appropriate for this time, they would have gained the hearts of all Present Truth believers ever to become of the same mind, seeing eye to eye, and speaking the same things. This is the only main condition required by the Law of God, before the sealing of the 144.000 elected saints of God in the future could be accomplished.  

Since the teachers could no more  be found affiliated with any Headquarter of Davidian SDA Organization in USA, at this time, we may be sure that those Organizations could no more be right and true in the sight of God. The Waco, Texas Headquarter of Davidian SDA as the re-organized body of the General Conference of SDA, in 1935, is known to represent God only during the lifetime of His divinely appointed servant Bro. Victor T. Houteff.  So we may be sure that ever since the re-establishment of the Waco, Texas Headquarters of Davidian SDA in 1991, even ever since the dissolution of all the assets of Mount Carmel Center in 1962 the Lord God is no more represented here on earth by any Organization.  So we may be sure that

The Re-establishment
of Mount Carmel Center of Davidian SDA
in 1991 is illegal

Legal or not legal of the re-establishment of the Mt. Carmel Center depends upon how the Constitution and the By-law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA have been implemented at the re-establishment of the Mount Carmel Center in 1991.  

We have to know that the Constitution and the By-law were codified by the servant of the Lord, Bro. Victor T. Houteff. Up to the time he died in 1955 there was none any change could ever be found made by him to the Constitution and Its By-law. So as well as the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments, as the image of the character of God Jehovah is holy, then the Constitution and the By Law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA, as rules of implementation of the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments, should have been holy also. Yes, it is, they are holy as well as unchangeable. Now let us see how the Constitution and the by-law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA should have been implemented according to the prophecy. Let us read here below from the book of Zechariah :

“Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, ‘T h i s  i s  t h e  w o r d   o f  t h e  L o r d  unto Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.”

“Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, the hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you.” — Zechariah 4 : 6, 8, 9.

Every Present Truth believer should have understood that Zerubbabel should have represented the last prophet of God for this time of the end. And he is Bro. Victor T. Houteff. So, if Mrs. White had ever laid the foundation of the Laodicean Church of SDA with the Basic Law of the Ten Commandments and its rules of implementation in the Spirit of Prophecy of the third angel message, then Bro. Houteff represented by Zerubbabel would have laid the foundation of the Laodicean Church of Davidian SDA with The Law of the Ten Commandments and its rules of implementation in The SPIRIT OF PROPHECY of Rev. 19 : 10.

And since the house of the Laodicean Church of Davidian SDA is yet to be finished in the future, when the Davidic kingdom should have been established in the Palestine sometime in the year 2027, the hands of Zerubbabel should have finished it also then. Here it is to be carefully understood, that the hands of Zerubbabel at this second period would have unavoidably represented THE CONSTITUTION AND THE BY LAWS of the Leviticus of the Davidian SDA Association. The Constitution and its By-Law, according to the prophecy of Zechariah chapter. 4, were actually made for the future application to establish the Kingdom in the Palestine.

Bro. Houteff has first applied the Constitution and its By-law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA Association, to establish his HQ of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, in 1935, as the re-organized body of the General Conference of SDA, to meet one of the requirements of the Call for a spiritual revival and reformation by Mrs. White in the Review and Herald February 25, 1902.

Since the future kingdom is holy as well as the Constitution and its By-law are themselves holy and unchangeable, then when Bro. Houteff died in 1955 and his leadership at the Head Quarters was then ceded to the Vice President Mrs. Houteff, then unity and holiness at the Mount Carmel Center ever since began to wane. Then the following words began to be fulfilled when Bro. Houteff ever warned : 

“Everything that can be done against God’s message of today will be done with even a greater vengeance than was manifest against Heaven’s message in the days of Christ’s first advent, for the Devil knows that if he loses now, he loses forever — that he is to have no other chance.The White House Recruiter, p. 33.

We all know for sure that as the consequence of the above warning, the Mount Carmel Center of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, was then liquidated and all the assets were then sold to the Presbyterian Church in 1962. 

About 30 years later, however, in 1991, the Head Quarters of Davidian SDA was then re-established on its original location in Waco, Texas, after most of the land having been bought back from the same Presbyterian Church.

Since the present leadership in Waco, Texas, have re-established the HQ of Davidian SDA based upon the same Constitution and the By-law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA, with only the “Vice President “post was filled in, whereas the post of “President” stayed on vacant even up to now. Is this not a fact to show that the spiritual condition during the leadership of Mrs. Houteff as vice President is not as yet changed even up to this very moment ?  Is this not a fact to show that the leadership in Waco, Texas, has failed to apply the whole rules of implementation of the Constitution and its By-law in establishing their present HQ of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA. ?  Why did they not fill in both posts of “President” and “Vice President” at the same time according to the Constitution ? This is also the fact to show us the fulfillment of Bro. Houteff warning, when he said :  

“We must be alert, too, to realize that the blow is to come from surprisingly unsuspected foes — from professed friends of the gospel, who are no less pious than were the priests in Christ’s day. It is, moreover, but to be expected that the Adversary will employ every agency possible to prevent the Lord from disclosing to view His now obscure 144.000 first fruit servants, who are to go gather in the second fruits (Revelation 7 : 9). The Enemy will try everything conceivable to confuse, becloud, and cover up the Truth, especially on the subject of the 144.000.” The White House Recruiter, p. 33.

Read carefully the above statement by Bro. Houteff in his booklet THE WHITE HOUSE RECRUTER, p. 33. The statement consists of 2 passages. The first passage related to Mrs. Houteff and her failures up to the liquidation of the Mount Carmel Center in 1962. But the second passage is relating to the present leadership of the General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA. ever since the re-establishment of the Head Quarters in 1991.

Since they are no less pious than were the priests in Christ’s days in the Palestine, they should have been unavoidably the antitypical Sanhedrin of today. As well as the priests in Christ’s days in the Palestine were known of their narrow-minded fundamentalism, the same things would be identified with the present leadership in the Head Quarters of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA. Is this not the sin prohibited in the Revelation 22 : 18, and 19, which is the act of doing things by adding to or subtracting from the message?

Concluded

It should be concluded now that the main objective of why Bro. Houteff should have codified the Constitution and the By-Law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA is :    

  1. That the establishment of the General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas, USA., as the re-organized body of the General Conference of SDA of the angel of the Laodicean Church could be accomplished accordingly as those stipulated in the Constitution and its By-Law of the Leviticus of Davidian SDA.
  2. That at the end in the near future the same Constitution and its By-Law could also be applied to the finishing of the house of the Laodicean Church of Davidian SDA, which is the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom in the Palestine.

Due to the sacredness of the Constitution and its By-Law which is unchangeable, that only Houteff personally had ever been fully entrusted by the Lord to be “President” of the Association. As soon as he died in 1955, therefore, at the same time the Lord withdrew His leading hands, and then according to prophet Zechariah in his prophetic words the Lord God Himself ever said in the following words :

          “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, as soon as after Bro. Houteff as “President” of the General Association of Davidian SDA in Waco, Texas,  died in 1955, the Lord would no more recognize any Organization of Mount Carmel Center to represent Him here on the earth up to the time when the building of the house of the Laodicean Church of Davidian SDA is finished in the Palestine.
