What The context of Revelation 10?

Oh really Alchemy? Please enlightened me-- where in the Bible do you find this or comes even close to suggest this by which I perceive this belief as total non-sense.

But if you can prove it to me that this is actually Biblical -- then am all ears. It would take another discussion(let's don't hi-jack this one) or bump up an discussion that address this question directly.

"Someone posted that the equinox is on 20 March this year",
but you don't really know nor agree, do you?

Henry, I wasn't asking what would the date be today if it was way back in the time you were talking about.

I asked a simple question. Why do you refuse to answer it?

The equinox does not change based upon which arbitrary calendar you are using. It is at a fixed time.

Consider sunset. It's at a fixed time. Depending upon where you're at, it could be called 6:30 or it could be called 5:30, but the sun sets at a certain time no matter what arbitrary numerical clock time you give it.

What I'm asking you is, given our calendar we use today, when is the equinox.

You are using OUR calendar today to create your Trump time, so use OUR calendar today, to say when the equinox is.

Are you with me, does that make sense to you?
I hope so.

Now that we (might) have that out of the way, back in the Babylonian time you're referring to, did their new year start at the equinox or a week later. Forget trying to map their calendar to ours. I'm asking relative to the equinox, which happens regardless of which calendar you are using.

If do not follow this, do you understand why people consider you are little off the off-side? And I'm sure you will quote something about no one listening to the variously separated Word, but I'm just saying there's some serious logical issues here.



Yep.

Figured that was coming. Now you're off the hook for almost a year. Then, of course, you can say March 2018.

And away we go. Always a deadline continually being set that's just not quite attainable.

Daryl and Alchemy, not sure I'm defending His Child, but concerning the quotes you used, aren't a couple of them regarding the 2300 days, that there is no more time prophecy regarding that specifically?

[putting on false prophet hat]
Jude 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

So here we have prophecy!
This shows that Trump and Obama are going to marry by the Ides of March.
We take 1 and 7, add it together and we get 8.
We note there are 7 heads and then an 8th one.
The Ides of March is the 15th.
Now we take 15, subtract 8, and we get 7. So now we try to come up with something that happened on the 7th to start the countdown.
So now we search the news tomorrow, because something is going to happen.
Presto!

Chapters and verses please

I read the posts in the in this thread with interest. I did not reply to some of them because their tone in my opinion was not of a serious nature. If you asked me a question and I failed to answer it please ask it again.

If All prophetic time ended in Scripture after 1844, why is there so much prophetic time in Revelation after the Scripture arrived at 1844?

Revelation 10:5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
10:6 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:
10:7 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.

Time prophecies ended when the voice of the seventh trumpet begins.

"This time, which the Angel declares with a solemn oath, is not the end of this world’s history, neither of probationary time, but of prophetic time, which would precede the advent of our Lord. That is, the people will not have another message upon definite time. After this period of time, reaching from 1842 to 1844, there can be no definite tracing of the prophetic time. The longest reckoning reaches to the autumn of 1844. {1MR99}


The seventh angel begins to sound in 1844.
That's when the heavenly temple with the ark of the covenant became a reality in the minds of Bible students.


Quoting scripture speaking of the seventh trumpet EGW writes:

" “The temple of God was opened in Heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament.” [Revelation 11:19.] The ark of God's testament is in the holy of holies, the second apartment of the sanctuary. In the ministration of the earthly tabernacle, which served “unto the example and shadow of heavenly things,” this apartment was opened only upon the great day of atonement, for the cleansing of the sanctuary. Therefore the announcement that the temple of God was opened in Heaven, and the ark of his testament was seen, points to the opening of the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary, in 1844, as Christ entered there to perform the closing work of the atonement. {GC88 433}

What do you mean by saying scripture arrived at 1844?
The scriptures became readily available a couple centuries before 1844 --

It was during those years prior to 1844 that prophetic interest surged.
The world was being prepared for the three angels messages to be proclaimed. Those messages began to sound around 1844.

The three angel's messages are the last great message to be sounded with loud voice to the world just before Christ returns.

" If every soldier of Christ had done his duty, if every watchman on the walls of Zion had given the trumpet a certain sound, the world might ere this have heard the message of warning. But the work is years behind. While men have slept, Satan has stolen a march upon us.--Testimonies, vol. 9, p. 29.

"Had the purpose of God been carried out by His people in giving to the world the message of mercy, Christ would, ere this, have come to the earth, and the saints would have received their welcome into the city of God.--Testimonies, vol. 6, p. 450.

"Everything in the universe calls upon those who know the truth to consecrate themselves unreservedly to the proclamation of the truth as it has been made known to them in the third angel's message. Testimonies, vol. 9, pp. 25, 26

This is actually a mis-quote or incomplete quote, found in {7BC 979.10}. Quoting the full paragraph in {7BC 979.10} we find: The Sabbath question will be the issue in the great conflict in which all the world will act a part. [Revelation 13:4-10 quoted.] This entire chapter is a revelation of what will surely take place [Revelation 13:11, 15-17 quoted] (MS 88, 1897). {7BC 979.10}

The same manuscript, {MS 88 1897} is quoted in {19MR} but you would have to back up 2 more paragraphs.

See the following: The Sabbath question will be the issue in the great conflict in which all the world will act a part. [Revelation 13:4-8, quoted.] {19MR 182.4}

"If any man have ears to hear, let him hear." This warning is given to every son and daughter of Adam; and it is repeated over and over again. {19MR 182.5}

"He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints" [Revelation 13:10]. This entire chapter is a revelation of what will surely take place. [Revelation 13:11, 15-17, quoted.] {19MR 182.6}

But let's go to the source of these quotes:

The Sabbath question will be the issue in the great conflict in which all the world will act a part. “They worshiped the dragon which gave power to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemy; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” {Ms88-1897}

“If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.” This warning is given to every son and daughter of Adam; and it is repeated over and over again. {Ms88-1897}

“He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity; he killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the saints.” This entire chapter is a revelation of what will surely take place. “And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.... And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads; and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark or the number of the beast, or the number of his name.” {Ms88-1897}

The meaning seems clearer when you read the original source.
