Daniel and
Revelation
Book of Daniel and Revelation is the apple of the eye of Adventism, you should ask the question, Is the interpretation of these books is certain? Christianity itself on this issue is divided. There are several directions interpretation, for some it is a history and the other is the future. Adventists they have accepted a form of history. They explain that in Revelation seven churches, seven seals, seven trumpets should be divided into seven periods of Christianity and so the church of the Ephesians is the first Christians and the last is the church Laodicean or the Adventists since 1844, and another interpretation for example. Pastor Hydzik of the Pentecostal Church said that the first period Christianity ended in AD 70 destruction of Jerusalem and the last period began in 1906 -that is, a Pentecostal Movement.

W.Branham
has another interpretation because he has set a breakthrough not 538
as did it Adventists only 606 years, so who is right? I think that no
one! For where in the Bible it says that you must seven churches
divided into periods of Christianity, this method is without any
basis. How would you wrote your date of birth is also would fit, but
if we so slow to do?
There
is no doubt that the seven partitions we have a description of seven
different features of the church, as loyalty, perseverance,
compromise with evil, apostasy, faith and indifference. These
qualities can be found in every age and every church today, as if to
gather the seven churches Adventists from each country. It would turn
out that each of them has different characteristics, because
otherwise it looks Christianity in China or the Arab world where
someone decides baptizing themselves to death or prison. and unlike
in America where sin is not sometimes considered a sin, and counted
the money.
God
wanted to show the values that are appropriate and which are not.
There is nothing in the Bible that refers to 7 periods in the history
of Christianity and that Thyatira is the Catholic Church from 538 to
1517 and Philadelphia is Miller's movement from 1798 - 1844. This is
a translation of the Bible does not give. Does anyone know another
version of Advent for the 7 seals or trumpets out of seven historical
periods? Certainly not in the official teaching of the church. The
Word of God says:
(20):
Above all, you do well if you recognize this: No prophecy of
scripture ever comes about by the prophet's own imagination, /New
English Transl./
(20): knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, [New King James, 2p 1]
(20): knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, [New King James, 2p 1]
Peter
wrote that given to the Christians who interpret the prophecies
themselves as they wanted. Adventist translation from someone who at
the time of Miller himself invented it and he had no confirmation
from God that this is the correct interpretation, in many places
belies the fact that they Biblical text. Seven Trumpets divided into
seven periods of Christianity while the text itself says that it is a
description of the plagues.
Rev.9:18
(18):
By these three [plagues] a third of mankind was killed -- by the fire
and the smoke and the brimstone which came out of their mouths. [New
King James, Ap 9]
Rev.9:20
(20):
But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did
not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship
demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can
neither see nor hear nor walk. [New King James, Ap 9]
Do
these texts speak of the seven periods of Christianity or the
plagues? I understand that we can be traced to different meanings for
symbols because we do not have a clear answer which one is correct,
but take the description of the plagues which it says that it is a
plague and make this first period apostolic, is already twisting the
Bible, It's just you have to have imagination. Let's look at the
description of the first trumpet:
Rev.8,7
(7):
The first angel sounded: And hail and fire followed, mingled with
blood, and they were thrown to the earth. And a third of the trees
were burned up, and all green grass was burned up. [New King James,
Ap 8]
Could
anyone have known that this is the Ottoman Impire times? It was
suggested that if the number seven, it must be seven periods, but
Rev.16 chapter also talks about the number seven as plagues and
Adventism says in Revelation. 16 is 7 about plagues not about seven
periods.
Rev.15,6
also says about the seven angels and those not associated with the
seven periods of the history of Christianity, someone translated
himself as he wanted. how he liked it interceded periods and as he
did not fit gave 7 without periods. It was the early days of
Adventism and no one of the descendants dare not undermine the theory
Daddy.
The
book of Revelation gives double the descriptions of the same, and so
144 thousand.It is Rev.7 and 14 return of Christ in Rev.6 and 19
Plagues in Rev.8-9 and 16 vision of heaven in Rev.5 and 21-22. Double
names in Hebrew were important assurance of events in the Old
Testament there is a double description of the creation of the world,
as well as double the same words for example. "In the image and
likeness" to emphasize the importance of events.
Jehovah's
Witnesses interpret the numbers 144 thousand. and they argue that
this refers to the elect. Evangelicals say that these are literal
1,260 days and 1,260 days Jesus when he comes back it will be riding
on a white horse from Egypt to Jerusalem and will have robes in the
blood of their enemies. So one explain all the symbols and are such
that no one would be able to even guess while others take everything
literally. Both sides are extreme
2Jana.1,9
(9):
Everyone who goes on ahead and does not remain in the teaching of
Christ does not have God. The one who remains in this teaching has
both the Father and the Son.
Both
parties do not know how to translate the symbols, this helplessness
and delusion leads to mistranslation. Adventism is proud of knowing
the truth, but in reality, the truth does not know. Knowledge is one
of the gifts of the Spirit such as healing or prophecy and can be
obtained through the endowment and not of himself or theological
school.
I
am talking here not about historical knowledge but proper discernment
and understanding of truth, Jesus said the Holy Spirit will guide you
into all truth. He is the Spirit of Truth. Without endowment from God
you err in theories that someone invented. The man himself has two
tendencies: to fantasy and belief in what you hear. This applies also
church leaders. Clement of Rome about 90, he wrote a letter to the
Corinthians in it about a bird that lived in Arabia called Phoenix
and is reborn from the ashes.
Everyone
knows that a fragment of Greek mythology, but Clement believed it and
gives it to the public. In the Epistle of Barnabas written about 120,
the author gives the rabbit is a symbol of gay because his rectum
expands. It is obvious nonsense but the author wrote this to one of
the churches. We all have a tendency to create his own theories. You
have to stick to the Word as it is written, and do not adapt them to
their views.
So
it is written in the Bible, but it must be explained otherwise it is
just a symbolic description of that God created man, say others, if
something does not fit me it is a symbol. Note that when the
prophecies of Daniel and Revelation is the explanation of symbols and
its head is Babylon and 10 horns are ten kings, and coat it just
works Rev.7 If there is anything difficult is seeking the Lord and
not scheming leave until God will give you the answer but the worst
thing you can do is suggest the translation of others.
What the
Lord wants from us? that you may live without sin rather than perfect
knowledge of theology. Be holy and God will give you knowledge. Jesus
said:
"Seek
first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things shall be
added unto you" Mat.6,33
Adventists said, "Seek ye first the theological and what is truth and justice and the kingdom shall be added unto" And so do Adventists seek what is true, not a life without sin, and they think how they know about the seven churches and about the seven seals this holiness will give them added.

With
regard to food sacrificed to idols, we know that "we all have
knowledge." Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. (2): If
someone thinks he knows something, he does not yet know to the degree
that he needs to know.
"But the knowledge rises with pride, but love builds up." /BT Polish Edition/
He wrote about those who did confusion in congregations suggesting that they know best what is true and what is not, build relationships with God and no knowledge of God.
1
Kor. 4:19-20
(1):
One should think about us this way as servants of Christ and stewards
of the mysteries of God. [New English Translation, 1kor 4]
The
Kingdom is based is the power of God and his guiding us and not on
the words of knowledge, this knowledge has made them arrogant, and
this is the inverse of humility that says "wise is the only
God," "He /God/ knows everything, not me," "shall
be under his wisdom "pride says," I know best what is true,
"pride does not see his wandering, this pride has led to a
rebellion in heaven, Lucifer came to the conclusion that it is
perfect and there are no smarter than him.
What implanted Adam and Eve? His
own pride, "you'll be wise like God, you'll be great, you do not
need humility" Satan pricked up Eve to gain knowledge. and you
will never see God's character.

Moj. 3:5-6
(5):
for God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will open and you
will be like divine beings who know good and evil."(6): When the
woman saw that the tree produced fruit that was good for food, was
attractive to the eye, and was desirable for making one wise, she
took some of its fruit and ate it.
By providing
people with the knowledge of theological, historical Can you take
them to pride, you have to lead people to Christ, know their sins in
order to be able to surrender to Christ, and He changed their evil
nature that their reborn, not theological knowledge, or practitioner
and not a preacher theory . To be purified you have to acknowledge
your sinfulness and not just to know that you are a sinner. Most
Adventists thinks he knows how salvation on the cross and know that
Jesus died for them that are saved, they are saved! because knowledge
of salvation does not give salvation, salvation gives Christ and you
need to take the victim to participate in it by faith and not
knowledge. Knowledge is the staircase that have lead us to believe.
Most Christians stopped on the stairs.
