The “Time” of the Sealing, The Latter Rain and the Loud Cry

   

There are many who are wandering about the place of sealing, the latter rain, and the loud cry and other important end-time events. Some have called our office inquiring of the place of these important events. Just recently someone told me that “more and more people were suggesting that a careful study of prophetic events would show that the Loud cry began on Sept. 11, 2001.” This position is coming from various sources and from different people on different sides of the country and continent.  They asked me “is it true, had I heard anything about it, have I studied it?”

 

We had the opportunity to study it together and in upcoming weeks I will share with you some of the things we studied because it is very important to know the truth for ourselves. Some have simply accepted a series of end-time events because it has been handed down to them. There are very few who have truly studied these things out for themselves!

  Some have placed the sealing, the latter rain and the loud cry in the past, some in the present, and others in the future, how can we be certain which interpretation is right or can we trust them all?

 It is certain that the great majority of those in the Remnant church (both preachers of present truth and believers of present truth—we will prove this from inspired references shortly) are uncertain, tossed about with every wind of doctrine. We are warned about this time and sad condition of many in our church by the solemn Testimony of Jesus for these last days. Notice the following quotations:

Many Don’t REALLY KNOW

 “I have been shown that many who profess to have a knowledge of present truth know not what they believe. They do not understand the evidences of their faith. They have no just appreciation of the work for the present time. When the time of trial shall come, there are men now preaching to others who will find, upon examining the positions they hold, that there are many things for which they can give no satisfactory reason. Until thus tested they knew not their great ignorance. And there are many in the church who take it for granted that they understand what they believe; but, until controversy arises, they do not know their own weakness. When separated from those of like faith and compelled to stand singly and alone to explain their belief, they will be surprised to see how confused are their ideas of what they had accepted as truth. Certain it is that there has been among us a departure from the living God and a turning to men, putting human in place of divine wisdom.  {5T 707.2}

     “The days are fast approaching when there will be great perplexity and confusion. Satan, clothed in angel robes, will deceive, if possible, the very elect. There will be gods many and lords many. Every wind of doctrine will be blowing….”  {5T 80.1}

  “More thought should be given to the things of God, and less to temporal matters. The world-loving professor, if he will exercise his mind in that direction, may become as familiar with the word of God as he now is with worldly business. “Search the Scriptures,” said Christ; “for in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify of Me.” The Christian is required to be diligent in searching the Scriptures, to read over and over again the truths of God’s word. Willful ignorance on this subject endangers the Christian life and character. It blinds the understanding and corrupts the noblest powers. It is this that brings confusion into our lives. Our people need to understand the oracles of God; they need to have a systematic knowledge of the principles of revealed truth, which will fit them for what is coming upon the earth and prevent them from being carried about by every wind of doctrine.  {5T 273.2}

 Let’s Study : I Invite you to study with me

In the next few weeks we will post several articles that will help the sincere and earnest student of the Bible and its wonderful truths for these last days to be certain where these events (The Sealing, the Latter Rain, and the Loud Cry) are placed in God’s inspired prophetic calendar or chart of end-time events. So certain, that we will not “guess at anything”. GC 598.

Infact we are told in inspiration right on this point that:

 It is not enough to have good intentions; it is not enough to do what a man thinks is right or what the minister tells him is right. His soul’s salvation is at stake, and he should search the Scriptures for himself. However strong may be his convictions, however confident he may be that the minister knows what is truth, this is not his foundation. He has a chart pointing out every waymark on the heavenward journey, and he ought not to guess at anything.” {GC 598.1} 

 

So please pray, study, and visit this section again soon for these upcoming studies. And let a friend know who may be interested in or seeking the truth about these vital subjects!

Get ready, GET ready, GET READY!
