Publishers Preface
We need absolutely realize that God is in the business to save sinners, of whom we are the chief. That it matters not how deep in sin we may be, if we but depart from evil and choose to do good He will gladly grant us forgiveness. For in reality God is more willing to save us than we of ourselves. Let us ever remember that self is the only barrier between us and God, and that God will never force us to come to Him. Let us ask Him for power to use the grace He so freely provides. He would not have made us free moral agents if He did not expect us to use our wills. We should ask Him to help us to be willing to be made willing, and then join our wills to His, and so work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. We need the strength of God to resist all evil to overcome the world as Jesus overcame.

Yours in Christ Jesus,

THE LAYMANS MOVEMENT

Dear Brothers and Sisters; We should remember, moreover, that it is not possible that God should leave a one of us in darkness if we really want to know the Truth and if we are mindful of what God would have us to do. Inspiration declared: God will not let you be deceived if you really hunger and thirst after righteousness, if you really want to know the Truth, for He is anxious that you keep up with His progressively revealed Truth. There is therefore no danger for one to be deceived by coming in contact with error, but there is a great danger for staying in darkness by not coming in contact with fresh Truth. (1 TG 12:18) Consequently, the greatest danger of the people has not been their listening to error but their rejecting present Truth. (3 TR 10, 11) For each seal were to be saved by each new Truth which is the Spirit of Life. (1 SR 123)

Yours in Christ Jesus,

A.D. JEZREEL

MARVELS OF TYPOLOGY, ALLEGORIES AND PROVIDENCES THROUGH BIBLE NUMERICS

Lets begin with 2 SR 100 It is open disobedience to the plain thus saith the Lord that has brought about confusion and disgrace in the Christian world at the present time. True the reformers saw not all these errors, and were not responsible, for they had no light upon them. As God has given light upon His Word, by degrees, making it possible to grasp the truth, He expects us to receive it, and thus lead us to the victory. But one may say, if God could save others with less light, why should He give us more light? Of the many reasons we shall comment on only two. By increased light on the Word, God is able to save a multitude instead of a few. The second reason is, as the last part of the church will be translated instead of resurrected, we need sufficient light to prepare us to meet God and immortal beings. (2 SR 100)

1 SR p.e. 33-37 In the stream of this most instructive typology on the subject, we are now carried along to its climaxing feature JACOBS DREAM. On the first night of his flight from the murderous wrath of Esau, Jacob, using a stone for a pillow, lay down to rest: And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. Gen. 28:12. What does the dream mean? -- Being another facet of the same typology, it must necessarily be a prefigurement of a note-worthy event to overtake Gods people, the Jacobites. Since the ladder, with one end on the earth and the other in heaven, symbolizes Christ (Patriarchs And Prophets, p. 184), and since the angels walking up and down the ladder are His messengers (The Great Controversy, p. 512), the whole signifies that Christ

4.

- shall establish through Himself a sure and constant communication between heaven and earth. And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear saith the Lord, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth. Hos. 2:21 The next step in the typology takes into consideration THE MOTHERS OF JACOBS DESCENDANTS Along the chronological path of this numerous-phased typology, we now in thought follow Jacob on to Padan-Aram. There he took unto himself four wives -- Leah and Rachel, the daughters of Laban; then Zilpah and Bilhah, their respective maids. These four were the mothers of the twelve sons of Jacob, who in turn were the fathers of the twelve tribes of Israel. In this type-progression of spiritual Israel, only one of the four, Leah, was Jacobs legal wife. Only she, therefore, can typify the true and legal church -the one which was organized in Jerusalem by the twelve -tribe kingdom, and which finally evolved into the Christian Church.

.5

Rachel must necessarily represent a sister church -- the one organized in Samaria by the ten-tribe kingdom and dispersed with it among the Gentiles. Zilpah and Bilhah, being strangers and servants to Leah and Rachel, must necessarily represent subsequent churches of Gentile origin. From these four lines descended the antitypical children of Israel. And what is true in the physical genealogy must be true also in the spiritual genealogy. Hence, while the antitypical, like the typical, twelve tribes come through both Israelite and Gentile mothers, yet they are begotten by one and the same father -- an Israelite. Dispersed by God throughout the Gentile nations, both Judah (the twotribe kingdom) and Israel (the ten-tribe kingdom) were swallowed up by them. Then, too, the Christian Church, herself but an upshoot from the Jewish Church (Christs disciples and apostles, as well as the churchs early converts, were purely Jews, remember), dropped her Old Testament title Jewish as she took her New Testament title Christian. Then she gradually lost her Jewish foliage amid the foliage of the ingrafted Gentile branches.

6.

Now as we leave this phase of the typology, we enter that of JACOBS JOURNEY HOMEWARD. After twenty years of faithful service in Padan-Aram, in the sharp, overreaching employ of Laban, his uncle, Jacob at last turned his face and his steps homeward toward his fathers house in the land of promise. But trouble overtook him. While grappling with his fears as to the outcome of his imminent meeting with Esau, there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. Gen. 32:24 Here lay down the man Jacob and rose up the man Israel, exemplifying the agonizing experience through which his posterity must victoriously pass before they, too, receive a new name, pass from sons of Jacob to sons of God, become Israelites indeed. Having gained the victory over this test, the time of Jacobs trouble, they will reach home, the land of promise -- the happy end of their long and troubled journey. On this trying and testing time the Spirit of Prophecy comments: A decree went forth to slay the saints, which caused them to cry day and night for deliverance.

.7

- This was the time of Jacobs trouble -- Early Writings, pp. 36, 37. (See also Patriarchs and Prophets, pp. 202, 203.) Now, as Jacobs retirement from his servitude in Padan-Aram ends with his returning home, the typology continues with -ISRAELS GOING INTO EGYPT That the Bible reveals its tremendous truths in divers ways -- in numerics, in symbols and figures, in parables and allegories, in dreams and visions, in types and providences -- is even more fully recognized in the anomalous experience of ancient Israels going into Egypt. In it every informed Bible student discerns, not mere happenstance, but purposive design wrought by the omnipotent hand of Providence. Indeed, Joseph himself, the principal character in the great drama, so avouches it: God did send me before you, he declares, to preserve life. Gen. 45:5. (1 SR p.e. 33-37) Let us connect 1 SR 61 JACOBS DREAM. Jacob, at the advice of his parents, left home and went to Padan-Aram, and on his way, the very first night, God appeared unto him in a dream, And behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the

8.

- top of it reached to heaven: And behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. Gen. 28:12. The ladder represents Christ; God, the Father stood above it; Jacob at the foot of it. (Gen. 28:13). This dream gave Jacob great courage, and he made a vow to God. Jacob was now to become the father of Israel (12 tribes) through whom many nations shall be blessed; a type of Israel by the promise, the 12 tribes, the 144,000. The dream which he had in the night was only a vision and representation of some future event. The meaning of the dream can be only one thing. If the ladder represents Christ, the angels as messengers, God the Father at the head, and Jacob at the foot, it means a complete connection with heaven and the true Israel,--the latter rain, the loud cry of the third angels message. See Rev. 18:1 (1 SR 61) 1 SR 228, 229 It was Jacob, who, in the night, on the way to PadanAram had the dream of the great ladder which reached from earth to heaven, and the angels of God ascended and descended upon it. This vision was a representation of the Latter Rain, and the Loud Cry of the third angels message in the time of harvest. The ladder, representing Christ; the angels, the messengers; God the Father at one end, and Jacob at the other, meaning a complete connection with heaven and earth.

Though the duration of this last section of probationary time (entitled Israel), is shorter than any of the periods before it, it is to be the most glorious time of Gods church. The prophet Isaiah, looking forward to this time, says, Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. Never before this time in view, has Gods church kept entirely free from the unconsecrated and unconverted (tares: uncircumcised and unclean) in the midst of her, but now the time has come where He must purify His church and keep her as such. Zephaniah, referring to this time, says, The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies. Zephaniah 3:13. (1 SR 228, 229) 1 SR 54 Symbol Of Struggle The children struggled before they were delivered. In this, too, must be a lesson. It is intended to point out the time when the application is made. It has been defined by the fathers age that the lesson is for a later period. The childrens struggle was before they were delivered; the lesson, then, is for Gods people just before they are delivered

10

THE TIME AND CHURCH The lesson can not be in two churches. Why? Because they are born from one mother. They must come under the same message. Why? Because they are begotten by the same father. If this is the generation that will witness the end, and the church that shall be delivered and be translated without tasting death, then this must be the time to which this lesson applies. Now the question is, In which church shall it find its fulfillment? It can only find its fulfillment in Gods true church. If the Protestant churches have fallen and are termed Babylon, then they have neither part nor lot in this lesson. If the Seventh-day Adventist church is the true Israel, and has a message which no other organization teaches; and if the message we bear is, the advent of Christ and the end of the world in this generation, then this is the church. (1 SR 54) As God is infallible, all His works spell perfection even to one jot or one title. (1 SR 232) With its interrelated subjects coming into clear, harmonious focus, shows that the entire formula of the plan of redemption is completely unfolded. Inspiration declared: 1 SR 231 Though we cannot comprehend such infinite wisdom, it gives us better understanding of Gods love

11

- for sinners, and our misconception of so -called human knowledge of things. To the eternal I AM, who inhabits eternity, before whom the darkness is light, and the remotest boundaries in space His footstool, who sees the end from the beginning, and to whom a thousand years are but as yesterday, all things are open and naked unto Him Said the Psalmist, Whither shall I go from Thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from Thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, Thou art there. If I make my bed in hell, behold, Thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; even there shall Thy hand lead me, and Thy right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: The darkness and the light are both a like to Thee....Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it. Psalm 139:7-12, 6. The wisdom and knowledge of the infinite is beyond comprehension by the finite. The wonders we behold, and the events which make the history of our world are but duplicates from the blueprints in heaven. (1 SR 231) 1934 Tract 3 pg. 65 There are two unseen powers that guide the destinies of men and the affairs of the

12

- world with a terrible exactness. Though the wicked feel a pressure which they cannot resist, or remove, they see it not and understand it not, because the Word alone giveth light and giveth power. Blessed is the man whose God is the Lord. Is the Word in dark parables to you? Your own answer will tell you of which class you are, and only your relation with God can help you. If you think Christ remained 40 days after the resurrection undesignedly; if you think the Holy Ghost fell on the 120 just because there happened to be that many; if you think that 12,000 out of each tribe were sealed by chance, then you might as well think the fact that 12 times 12,000 equals 144,000 is a mathematical accident. Your own conclusion to this vital question should show you the amount of light there is in you. (1934 Tract 3 pg. 65) 1934 Tract 3 pg. 67 The Scriptures often employ mathematical means in defining existence of time, and number of years from one Biblical event to another. The number of days from the wave-sheaf to the Pentecost was derived by multiplying 7 x 7, which equals 49. In like manner the number of years from one Jubilee to another was determined by multiplying the seven sabbatical years by seven, the sum of which is 49.

13

- Therefore, multiplication is a common Scriptural method of teaching truth. This subject to some may seem as strange as the thought of the earth revolving on its axis was to the inhabitants of another day. Nevertheless, incredible things often become plain facts. Hence, though we little know of the many Biblical numbers and their secret code of truth at the present time, they are not always to be dark elements to Gods people, for they must be there to discover and illuminate to our vision the sign posts on our way to the Holy City. Shall we not be thankful for every ray of light? Or shall we take a chance in the darkness? I will say in prayer: O send out Thy light and Thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto Thy holy hill, and to Thy tabernacles. (Ps. 43:3). (1934 Tract 3 pg. 67) 1 SR p.e. 56-60 MARVELS OF TYPOLOGY. The eye focused to the light of heaven sees that Jehovah God, the Super Artist, has employed in the Scriptures every method known to mankind by which to unfold the wondrous structure of Redemption.

14

- And now while leading His people to the Kingdom eternal, He employs for light on their way even typology -- the lives of men who have gone before and the experiences through which they have passed -- and decrees that their defeats and victories should be the saints stepping-stones over every pitfall. And to arouse the spirit of men to a realization of His wonder -working power and of their inability to foresee the future and thus to walk in the straight path, the Omniscient One flings the challenge: Produce your cause, saith the Lord; taring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob. Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. Isa. 41:21-23.

15

Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the Lord, the first, and with the last; I am He. Isa. 41:4. Explain the cause, the reason, the significance of former things, He demands. Tell us, what do they mean? What are they for? Can you predict the future by the past, be it good or be it bad? Exhibit Divine power if you can. Silence on the subject gives consent to the fact that only the Great I Am can thus forewarn the generations, the first to the last. And He makes it known that though the experiences through which our predecessors were permitted to pass were for our ensamples, yet even these we of ourselves cannot correctly interpret. But now at the appointed time, He Himself reveals their significance to the very people for whom they were originally and especially designed. Thus by the former things, the world of yesterday, the great and only such Typologist has projected the latter end of them, the world of today: At the outset of this typology, it is seen that the woman, Eve, who through her own seed(the living church) is to bruise the serpents head (Gen. 3:15), -

16

- typifies the church preceding the Hebrew dispensation; next, that Hagar typifies the church during the Hebrew dispensation; and finally, that Sarah typifies the Christian Church. Following these, the typology shows that Melchisedek, the priest of the Most High God, Who has neither beginning nor end of days, typifies Christ our High Priest and His eternal work, and that Aaron, a high priest in the Jewish dispensation, typifies Christ our High Priest and His temporary priestly work. While constructing the typology, Providence brought Hagar into the home of Abraham, and through Sarahs unbearable waiting for a son, brought Ishmael into being. Thus was forecast the moral character and behavior of an antitypical nation. For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the Mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. For this Agar is

17

- Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise. But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free. Gal. 4:22-31. Clear it is that Hagar and Ishmaels coming into the household of Abraham foreshadowed a flesh-born (not spirit-horn) people, the descendants of Jacob (ancient Israel), coming into the household of God, not through spiritual birth, but through natural cause.

18

It is also that Hagars rebellion against Sarah forespoke the rebellion of the rabbis against the Christian Church, and that Ishmaels persecution of Isaac pointed out the Jews persecution of the Christians. And last, Abrahams disinheriting Hagar and her son, sending them away once and forever, was a preview of Gods disinheriting and discharging from His household the carnal minded Jews who failed to become converted, reconciled, born again -- failed to bury the carnal body and to arise with a spiritual one according to the promise. Never, therefore, will the carnal Jew, any more than the carnal Gentile, ever with the saints inherit the Kingdom of God -- no, no more than Ishmael inherited Abrahams wealth -- or ever have any part in His glorious promises, except they be born again, born of the Spirit into the holy family of God (Rom. 11:23). Having glanced through these three church periods with their varied priesthoods, we now come to the second phase of the typology, and this we shall quickly and even more realistically see as we now review the typological drama of the ages with the aid of the accompanying chart, which graphically unveils the advancing truth and urges our compliance with it (1 SR p.e. 56-60)

19

God has a law of type that where there is type, there must also be antitype. (9 TR 72) Now, if never before we should see that where there is a type there is also an antitype, and that where there is no type, there is no Truth. (1 TG 47:15) The types are worked out to expose the error and reveal the truth. The honest ones will shun the devil by embracing the facts, and by walking in the light. (2 SR 255) Thus through types and symbols He makes wise the simple and confounds the prudent by showing that where there is no type there is no Truth. (2 SR 10) The chief purpose of teaching by symbols and types is that the truth may be revealed to Gods children and at the same time concealed from His enemies. (2 SR 10) It is not only wonderful to invent a lamp throwing out a light of such amazing candlepower, but it is also astonishing how our God can conceal His marvels from the eyes of wise and prudent men. Then in His own time He sets them upon high hills by which He is able to light the pathway of the searcher for truth, and by its glaring power blindfold the sight of the wicked. Therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall. (Hosea 4:14.) Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. (Psa. 97:11.) (2 SR 253) Since the most exalted and promising news of celestial glory was rejected, and the messenger unappreciated in both cases

20

- (Old and Modern worlds), it is positive that whatever truth is presented, regardless of its magnitude of glory, these scoffers of today will not believe, and will thus bring condemnation upon themselves. (2 SR 245) The SRod made it so plain, that Esau and Jacob must be found not in two churches, being of one mother. (1 SR 54) Inspiration declared: 1 SR p.e. 63 Esau and Jacob being twins and the last in this line of typology, they therefore foreshadow two classes of people living at the same time in the church period subsequent to the one which Isaac represents -- the last, the Laodicean. Esau, being the first-born, prefigures an Esauite ministry, who for as little as a mess of pottage forfeit their position to a Jacobite laity. (1 SR p.e. 63) The SRod declared clearly that Isaac represents the Laodicean church. And then declared: Further, from the time of Abrahams decision to follow the Lord, to the birth of Jacob, there were 85 years. And from the commencement of the Seventh-day Adventist Denomination, from its founders first trance-vision, which was regarding the 144,000, to the birth of The Shepherds Rod message, there were also 85 years. (1 SR p.e 70)

21

This reading plainly shows that Esau was born in 1929, and Jacob was born in 1930 being twins. And since Esau and Jacob of old were born when Isaac was 60 years old, and the SRod plainly declared: It has been defined by the fathers age [Isaac] that the lesson is for a later period (1 SR 54) we can easily comprehend that Esau and Jacob The childrens struggled before they were delivered (BORN) (1 SR 54) such struggle commence in 1871, on its primary phase. The SRod declared clearly, that as early as 1871 the cessation of timely Truth begun according to 1 Ans. 93. Therefore, at that time the voice of Inspiration declared: TM 46 There are two opposing influences continually exerted on the members of the church. One influence is working for the purification of the church, and the other for the corrupting of the people of God. (TM 46) Let us not however forget that the 144,000 are not Jacobs but rather Jacobites. (EW 37) The 144,000 were born from antitypical four mothers, whereas Esau and Jacob were born with one mother. Now, let us read

22

1 SR 62 Let Leah represent the true church of Christ (Seventh-day Adventists); Rachel, a sister church, but not the true (Protestant); Zilpah and Bilhah, the world (religious and irreligious). These are the mothers of the 144,000, and the way they (144,000) are gathered. But while the twelve tribes came from many mothers, they were begotten by the same father. So with the true--the 144,000. While they are gathered from all churches and the world, they must be brought into one church, at the same period of church history, by the same message (the third angels message). (1 SR 62) Isaac represents the Laodicean church. (1 SR 63) The two compound words lao and dekei, the one meaning people also speak the other meaning judgment the two in one meaning the people declaring judgment. (1 Ans. 11) And since the judgment are divided into two phases, first judgment for the dead and second judgment for the living the last (1 TG 38:24), therefore, the statement Isaac represents-the last, the Laodicean (1 SR p.e. 63), must definitely points out to the people who are declaring the Judgment for the Living. There is no other people under the sun who proclaimed such message except the DSDA organization. Absolutely therefore on its perfect and final phase, Isaac represents the DSDA organization-born after the Spirit.

23

Remember, Leah is the legal wife of Jacob. Now, let us read... 1 SR p.e. 34, 35 THE MOTHERS OF JACOBS DESCENDANTS Along the chronological path of this numerous-phased typology, we now in thought follow Jacob on to Padan-Aram. There he took unto himself four wives -- Leah and Rachel, the daughters of Laban; then Zilpah and Bilhah, their respective maids. These four were the mothers of the twelve sons of Jacob, who in turn were the fathers of the twelve tribes of Israel. In this type-progression of spiritual Israel, only one of the four, Leah, was Jacobs legal wife. Only she, therefore, can typify the true and legal church -the one which was organized in Jerusalem by the twelve -tribe kingdom, and which finally evolved into the Christian Church. Rachel must necessarily represent a sister church -- the one organized in Samaria by the ten-tribe kingdom and dispersed with it among the Gentiles.

24

Zilpah and Bilhah, being strangers and servants to Leah and Rachel, must necessarily represent subsequent churches of Gentile origin. From these four lines descended the antitypical children of Israel. And what is true in the physical genealogy must be true also in the spiritual genealogy. Hence, while the antitypical, like the typical, twelve tribes come through both Israelite and Gentile mothers, yet they are begotten by one and the same father -- an Israelite. (1 SR p.e. 34, 35) Remember, Rachel is the sister of Leah. Such representation cannot be perfectly fits in the days of V.T. Houteff. For if the SDA church is represented by Leah, then the DSDA cannot be represented by Rachel, for they were not sisters, but rather the DSDA recognized SDA church as their mother. Obviously, therefore the direct fulfillment of such allegorical prophecies must be applied in the judgment of the living-in our time. All of these counterparts, then, are but another Scriptural intimation, and confirmation, of the age-old truth that history repeats itself, and on a much broader scale than in the original. (14 TR 6) For example, the SDA church in 1845 they were represented by Jacob -

25

- (1 SR 75), but at the same time they were also represented by Isaac. (1 SR p.e. 63) Therefore, the antitypical fulfillment cannot be limited into one angle, that is why Inspiration definitely declared that it is on a much broader scale than in original. Since our main objective is to find out the perfect fulfillment of such allegorical prophecies which definitely point out to the living saints [144,000], such Fulfilled prophecies are seen therefore to be employed by the Scriptures only as groundwork for that part of prophecy which is yet to be fulfilled. (5 TR 34) Jacob was born in 1930 according to 1 SR p.e. 70. In 1990 antitypical Jacob join (unite or became a bonafide member) the mainstream Davidian (whose headquarters is in Waco), perfectly shows that it is the time by which Jacob was married to Leah. For marriage ceremony is to join together.

Antitypical Jacob was born

1990 A.D.
Antitypical Jacob both physically and spiritually was married to LEAH

27

Now, let us turn to another angle of allegory. Let us read 1 SR p.e. 36, 37 Now, as Jacobs retirement from his servitude in Padan-Aram ends with his returning home, the typology continues with -ISRAELS GOING INTO EGYPT That the Bible reveals its tremendous truths in divers ways -- in numerics, in symbols and figures, in parables and allegories, in dreams and visions, in types and providences -- is even more fully recognized in the anomalous experience of ancient Israels going into Egypt. In it every informed Bible student discerns, not mere happenstance, but purposive design wrought by the omnipotent hand of Providence. Indeed, Joseph himself, the principal character in the great drama, so avouches it: God did send me before you, he declares, to preserve life. Gen. 45:5. (1 SR p.e. 36, 37) Let us not however forget that Jacob of old entered into Egypt at the age of 130. (1 SR 112) And heres the diagram

28

The birth of Jacob

Jacobs entry into Egypt 1702 B.C.

1832 B.C.

From 1930 to 2012 there would be 82 years. In 2012 A.D. antitypical Jacob was 46 years old. Therefore, 82 + 46 = 128. Therefore, from 2012 A.D. there would be 2 years remaining to complete the 130 years when Jacob entered Egypt.

1930 A.D.
Antitypical Jacob was born

2014 A.D.
Antitypical Jacob would be in antitypical Egypt

29

Now, lets turn to another angle of such allegorical prophecy 2 SR 163 We quote from the writings of the Spirit of Prophecy: This was the time of Jacobs trouble. Then all the saints cried out with anguish of spirit, and were delivered by the voice of God. The one hundred and fortyfour thousand triumphed. Their faces were lighted up with the glory of God. Life Sketches, page 117. Note that the 144,000 in number, were present in the time of Jacobs trouble. According to the following quotation, that time of trouble commences immediately after the close of probation: When Christ shall cease His work as mediator in mans behalf, then this time of trouble will begin. Patriarchs and Prophets, page 201. That time of trouble is before any of the sleeping saints are resurrected, therefore the 144,000 are not resurrected, but are living saints who have never tasted death and are to be translated at the second coming of Christ. (2 SR 163) 2 TG 10:30 7. That subsequently, the time of Jacobs trouble (Jer. 30:7) for the 144,000, the sons of Jacob, logically develops on their way home (Gen. 32:1, 24) to the land of their fathers (Ezek. 36:28; 37:21, 25). (2 TG 10:30)

Now, lets turn to another angle of such allegorical prophecy. Let us read 1 SR p.e. 35, 36 Now as we leave this phase of the typology, we enter that of

JACOBS JOURNEY HOMEWARD.

After twenty years of faithful service in Padan-Aram, in the sharp, overreaching employ of Laban, his uncle, Jacob at last turned his face and his steps homeward toward his fathers house in the land of promise. But trouble overtook him. While grappling with his fears as to the outcome of his imminent meeting with Esau there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. Gen. 32:24 Here lay down the man Jacob and rose up the man Israel, exemplifying the agonizing experience through which his posterity must victoriously pass before they, too, receive a new name, pass from sons of Jacob to sons of God, become Israelites indeed. Having gained the victory over this test, the time of Jacobs trouble, they will reach home, the land of promise -- the happy end of their long and troubled journey. (1 SR p.e. 35, 36)

32

2 TG 35:25 To start with in Padan-Aram, Jacob had nothing but faith and zeal. He was only a good workman, that is all. These qualities Laban immediately recognized in Jacob, and as a result Laban not only offered to give Jacob his daughter Rachel for a wife, but even devised a scheme by which to force him to take both daughters -- Rachel and Leah -- the only girls in the family! Moreover, although Jacob dearly paid for them with fourteen solid years of hard faithful labor, he in the next six years became rich! Then on returning home, he whole heartedly, honestly, and with free conscience said to Laban: This twenty years have I been with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten. Gen. 31:38. (2 TG 35:25) 2 TG 35:23, 24 When we moved our office from California to Texas, where we had neither friend nor believer in the message, the church elders were glad, and thought our work would then die out for sure. It nevertheless grew more than before, although this took place in the midst of the depression, in 1935, while hundreds and thousands of businesses were going bankrupt, and while well-to-do men were becoming poor. Yet we who started out with nothing, grew and

33

- prospered. We, moreover, never took collections in any of our meetings anywhere and never made any calls for money. This holds good still. Then, too, our free literature that goes out week by week amounts to hundreds and thousands of dollars week after week, and year after year, besides the cost of building the Institution. And today after going through the nightmare of supposing I might live a life of poverty, as I explained before, my credit is unlimited, and the checks I write amount to thousands of dollars week after week, and year after year, although I am not bonded, own no property, and have no personal bank account! Furthermore, I pay my secretaries as much as I pay myself and some of my workmen I pay twice as much. Yes, there are as great miracles today as there ever were. Jacob, too, had no righteousness of his own but he had a great zeal and respect for the righteousness of the Lord. Esau, though, who had no regard for the righteousness of the Lord sold his birthright only for a mess of pottage. What a bargain was Jacobs! As a result, though, Jacob became a fugitive. The first night away from home, however, God met him, and having given him a vision, Jacob put his whole trust in God and pledged to be faithful in all his duties. (2 TG 35:23, 24)

The types are worked out to expose the error and reveal the Truth. So that the honest ones will shun the devil by embracing the facts, and by walking in the light. (2 SR 255) The Srod made it so plain that, where there is no type, there is no Truth. (2 SR 10) Then obvious it is, since there is no typical record that after Jacob stayed on Haran (Waco) for 20 years, he went back again, such movement cannot be of God. The SRod declared clearly that these are the only positive proofs and clear explanations of divine providences, that there is no type for that which is false. (2 SR 255)

35

Inspiration declared clearly, that fulfilled prophecies are employed by God to serve as a groundwork to that prophecy yet to be fulfilled. (5 TR 34) The SRod clearly implied that the final movement would be identical with that of 1930. (1 SC 7:8) Heres the diagram

The prophesied re-organization

Now, lets turn to another angle of such allegorical prophecy. Let us read 1 SR p.e. 58 But now, at the appointed time, He Himself reveals their significance to the very people for whom they were originally and especially designed. Thus by the former things, the world of yesterday, the great and only such Typologist has projected the latter end of them, the world of today:

37

At the outset of this typology, it is seen that the woman, Eve, who through her own seed (the living church) is to bruise the serpents head (Gen. 3:15), typifies the church preceding the Hebrew dispensation; next, that Hagar typifies the church during the Hebrew dispensation, and finally, that Sarah typifies the Christian Church. (1 SR p.e. 58)

The church that preceded the Hebrew dispensation. (1 SR p.e. 58)

1934 Tract 3 pg. 70, 71 Let it be remembered that our subject is to prove by numbers that Christ is the Savior of the world in all ages. Therefore, our aim is not to find the number of saints that are to be saved, but the number of years He will be a Savior. Again, we must call the readers attention to the fact that the parabolical

38

- calls, or messages of Matthew Twenty, embrace only the part of our worlds history; that is, since the Bible began to be written; namely, from the Exodus to probations close. But we must necessarily take into consideration the period before the Bible was written. Therefore, we must have a multiplicand of universal value to show that Christ is the Savior of the entire world -- both of those whom the Bible has reached and of those whom it has not, before the flood and after. (1934 Tract 3 pg. 70,71) Thus 120 x 5= 600 [the Bible times]. The Bible being 66 books, therefore 600 x 66 = 39,600. Gods Word being intended for the entire Universe, then let us divide it by 10, thus 39,600 10 = 3,960.

Heres our diagram:

Ishmael was Born after the flesh. Therefore, they represented those leadership that who took over the Movement of God after Gods heavenly called founder died, (See 1 Ans. 65) Inspiration declared: 1 SR p.e. 63 Ishmael, too, being Abrahams first-born son, but not through legal marriage or promise, he circumstantially represents a class of carnal ministry who are led to that office, not through spiritual birthright and a call from the Lord of the vineyard, but only through favorable opportunity. (1 SR p.e. 63) The only favorable opportunity by which this self-appointed leaders came on the scene is after Gods heavenly called founder died. Therefore in 1915 antitypical Ishmael was Born. Heres a diagram

In Volume 3, page 369, we read, Isaac was a figure of the Son of God, who was offered a sacrifice for the sins of the world. ( 1 SR 15) In 1 SR p.e. 63, declared that Isaac represents the LAODICEAN CHURCH. Isaac, Jonah, and Elisha are types of Christ, representing the different phases and imports of the work of Christ. (1 SR 16) And since Isaac represents Christs submission, death and sacrifice (1 SR 16) must definitely points out to Christs work in the Most Holy Place for the blotting out of sins of all the righteous. Heres our diagram:
