Thanks for watching part 1! In part 2, we will discover and dive more into the concept of the “remnant.” Disclaimer: this video was made for the purpose of those who may be familiar with the Seventh-day Adventist church, or they are Seventh-day Adventist type believers. (So it may feel as if we just jumped in. But there was a purpose behind this.) There are also certain groups who claim that “the remnant” people must leave the SDA church, and “Come out of her.” But is this actually true? This was more centered for those who already know prophecy, it’s symbols, & some history; but if you’d like to know more, please reach out to me and I will most gladly give you more information. Or you can just leave a comment.
Clarifying note: During the 1,260 period when “the woman” was in the “wilderness” —wilderness here meaning obscurity, secret, and hidden away—was different then when the sda church was in the spiritual wilderness wandering toward the land of Canaan. They may sound similar, but they both have a different context.
And no, this does not mean that if you are outside of the sda church, you cannot be saved. God sees every individual heart. There are many in ignorance, and when the Loud Cry happens, God’s people will come out of Babylon. —see John 10:16
Note: The 1,260 year period mentioned was the reign of the Papal power from 538 ad to 1798 ad.
However, in 1798, the papacy was “wounded” and removed from power by the French led by General Berthier. Then, set up later again, in 1929, when the Lateran Treaty was signed.
During this dark and long great tribulation period, the Christian church (woman in the wilderness) suffered extreme persecution. Millions were martyred.
“For professing faith contrary to the teachings of the Church of Rome, history records the martyrdom of more then (100 Million) one hundred million people. A million Waldenses and Albigenses [Swiss and French Protestants] perished during a crusade proclaimed by Pope Innocent III in 1208. Beginning from the establishment of the Jesuits in 1540 to 1580, nine hundred thousand were destroyed. One hundred and fifty thousand perished by the Inquisition in thirty years. Within the space of thirty-eight years after the edict of Charles V against the Protestants, fifty thousand persons were hanged, beheaded, or burned alive for heresy. Eighteen thousand more perished during the administration of the Duke of Alva in five and a half years.”–Brief Bible Readings, p. 16.
There is much more I could have touched on during this presentation, of course, but it would have taken many hours. God willing, I may do some of these presentations in the future. May the eternal Spirit guide you into all truth!
(I’m currently in the process of making part 2) A sneak peek into part 2:
(Remember, that just because the sda church is Israel and the remnant church of prophecy, does not mean that everyone in the sda church will make it to heaven; nor does it make us all of a sudden safe from falling because we are part of the sda church. Instead, we have an ever GREATER duty and responsibility then if we were outside of it.) “God has a church upon the earth who are His chosen people, who keep His commandments. He is leading, not stray offshoots, not one here and one there, but a people. The truth is a sanctifying power; but THE CHURCH MILITANT (sda church body as a whole) IS NOT THE CHURCH TRIUMPHANT (those who actually overcome and are perfect in God’s sight, who will make it to heaven.) There are tares among the wheat. “Wilt thou then that we … gather them up?” was the question of the servant; but the master answered, “Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.” The gospel net draws not only good fish, but bad ones as well, and the Lord only knows who are His.” CCh 240.1
