What is the seal 3rd Attempt suppressed details by presupposition

Prayer Thought: TM:105.1-106.1

Under the following heading “What Kind of Seal Is It?” we find the following corroborating references:

“It is positive that the sealing of the 144,000 is Ezekiel 9,—the separation (sifting in the church—the godly from the ungodly).”—1SR:26.

   “Note that AT the command of the Lord, the angels in charge are to slay the sinners in Jerusalem (in the church), not in the world. Only the abomination-hating ones, those who receive the mark for sighing and crying against the wrongs are to be left.”—1TG52:16.1

   “Besides this vivid illustration, Inspiration, through the prophet Daniel reveals that the Sanctuary is to be cleansed not only from sinners, but from doctrinal error, too…”—2TG42:32.2

A direct phrase “the Sealing” search in the SRod yields 276 occurrences in 239 records.

None of which will contradict the plain simple statement from the Word of God in Ezek. 9:1-7 especially vs. 3 and 4 (GC:598.3). By the way the rule if you don’t already subscribe to it is: 2SR:15.1; 3Tr:100.3; 1An:23.1; 3SC1:11.1.

1SR:22: Here in this reference we know that the phrase in this context is being used as representing the final probationary preparation time (which began in 1930) before the Judgment of the Living commences. The preparation (“the sealing”) time will expire before THE TEST (3SC7:4.12; 5SC6-12:8.18; 13SC3,4:9.4-10.1; 1Ans:68.5) is administered to all equally. If one were to conclude that this is the time of the fulfillment of Ezek. 9:4 all would have to perish because no one knew beforehand what it means to sigh and cry. Let us through God’s Holy Spirit begin to renounce the traditional presupposition and harmony will be the result of this study.

1SR:26: This reference quoted above proves that the prophet makes no awkward distinction between sealing/marking and separation. It is synonymous lending credibility to the way the Bible reads based on this new hitherto overlooked understanding.

1SR:28: No distinction between the slaughter and sealing. It also objectively identifies “TIME” apart.

1SR:29.2, 30.3: No distinction between the slaughter and sealing.

1SR:32.2: The 2^nd period [“TIME”] of the work of the third angel’s message has two parts within it. One is reformation and the second is the sealing of the 144,000.

1SR:34.1: This and other similar references of this nature should not be misconstrued for the very rational reasons already established from the previous inspired interpretations.

1SR:35.9: This is referring to the preparation during “the sealing time” to qualify for the seal based on the context.

1SR:46.3: This reference is the same as 1SR:30-28; 26; and the disputed 1Tr:38.2.

1SR:51.1: This reference is pointing the general close of probation and not the one that occurs for the SDA Church. This is the same as 1SR:34.1

1SR:80.3: This reference calls the moment of the sealing/marking of the 144,000 on their foreheads TIME. This is also in harmony with the close proximity of the sealing and slaughter as described in 1SR:46.3; 30-28; 26; which is the same as 1Tr:38.2. This “AT the time [moment] of the sealing” is not to be misconstrued, to equivocate with the truth of the period to prepare which falls under reformation time (which began in 1930) God provides for all to prepare before the qualifying time for the event comes to a close.

1SR:102.2: This reference makes no distinction between receiving the sealing/mark and the event of the slaughter. Therefore, this is the same as 1SR:80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26; and 1Tr:38.2. Does anyone notice that the list is getting longer? I did not plant the evidence herein contained. Only Satan now will assist all willing Davidians that want to defend a cherished opinion to strong-arm another reference to contradict these early plain and simple clear passages. The ultimate goal is to contradict the Bible which constitutes a violation and will disqualify the wrester from their right to receive the pure mark of truth.

1SR:145.3: This reference makes no distinction between the “TIME” of the sealing (receiving the mark) and the slaughter. Same as 102.2; 80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26 and 1Tr:38.2.

1SR:218.3: This reference in context with the above revealed truth is referring to AFTER the time of the purification during the Loud Cry period.

1SR:220.1: This LAST reference in 1SR joins FINALLY the sealing/slaughter event to the harvest a.k.a. “the silence in Heaven for the space of half an hour” (2SC5,6:10.2). Which is the same as the growing LIST.

2SR:162.2: Same as 1SR:220.1; 145.3; 102.2; 80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26 and 1Tr:38.2.

2SR:164.2: Same as 2SR:162.2; 1SR:220.1; 145.3; 102.2; 80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26 and 1Tr:38.2.

2SR:165.3: This reference refers “the sealing” to receiving knowledge through a message about and BEFORE the future event. Thus, we can see by these plain and simple statements clearly the message of the sealing is not the same as the time for the sealing nor the event of the marking of the foreheads by the sealing angel.

2SR:169.2: This reference places the slaughter before the sealing of the 144,000. This only proves that it belongs with the compiling list of 2SR:162.2; 1SR:220.1; 145.3; 102.2; 80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26 and 1Tr:38.2.

2SR:171.2: This reference confirms the sealing/slaughter truth. Add it to the list of 2SR:169.2; 162.2; 1SR:220.1; 145.3; 102.2; 80.3; 46.3; 30-28; 26; and 1Tr:38.2.

2SR:185: This reference validates the distinction that doctrinally exists between the “time” [moment] the mark will be received and the “time” period allotted to prepare by obedience of the knowledge in the message. This is in harmony with 1SR:35.9; 32.2; 28; 22.

2SR:217.2: The phrase is being used to admit knowledge of the message before the event is predicted. It also reveals the “time” of reformation. Same as 2SR:185; 1SR:35.9; 32.2; 28; and 22.

2SR:256.3: …unequivocally the “time” of the preparation. [2SR:217.2; 185; 1SR:35.9; 32.2; 28; and 22]

1Tr:19, 20: This tract is dedicated to Ezekiel chapter 9. It continues with the trend already established in 1 and 2 SR. I’m going to rest my case here. All of the above references were chosen from among the first 31 records.

Now I’ll close with an example of the movement and destination of the Lord which is used to prove Doctrine:

   “Were probation to close at the time of the first report  (Ezek. 9:11), the Lord must, according to the foregoing statement, be in heaven, then descend  to earth to receive His saints, instead of being already on earth, then mounting up in His throne, as He actually does, without His saints (Ezek. 10:19).

   “Again: the prophet's being left behind when the Lord went up, figuratively shows that at this particular descent and ascent, the saints are not to be taken to heaven, but only to be set free from sin and sinners—fitted for the final work.

   “At the angel's second report, however, Jesus being in heaven, ‘moved out of the most holy place’ (Early Writings, p. 280) to descend to earth.”—1Tr:22.1-3

Likewise, the harmonious truth of Ezek. 9:3-5 (WLF:18.3) as revealed by the Prophet of God’s movement with His angels, their destination, and what Jesus is wearing at the time He instructs the man with the writer’s inkhorn and the others who follow him matters significantly.

These 4^(2x*⁾ out of 39 occurrences in 34 records that were not used do not assist directly with the exercise we have been conducting namely distinguishing between these three distinct truths:

        1.      "the Sealing" message [of reformation]

        2.      "the Sealing" time [period in which to qualify], and

        3.      "the Sealing" angel [the event]

2SR:212, *166.2*; 1SR:108.2, *14*.

Those with asterisks to the honest truth seeker prove what I’m seeking to bring to your conscious attention. Yet they were excluded because they do not contain immediate qualifiers within the text close beside the phrase in question. The heading for each reference makes a distinction but we were seeking to observe it from the qualifiers in the passage. 35 occurrences of 34 records from two books and 1 pamphlet were used to prove that “the silence in Heaven for the space of half an hour” (2SC5,6:10.2) is the fulfillment of Ezek. 9 (seven days) which includes the sealing/marking and the slaughter during the event when Michael is standing delivering his people while wearing garments of vengeance.

Based on the overwhelming evidence committed to your personal, prayerful, reverent investigation the following events delineated herein will occur in strict chronological order.

        1.      The message arrives and makes an announcement in 1930 about the iJOL.

        2.      The period of time to qualify for the event of receiving the future seal/mark commences.

        3.      At the unknown close of the qualifying time God will present a TEST for all Laodiceans.

        4.      Then those who refuse to commit this last momentous abomination prophesied in Isa. 8:9-15 of confederating with the civil power against their own brethren will continue sighing and crying. And when the time of the event (announced in the Cry “Behold the Bridegroom cometh”) arrives those who have not confederated against their brethren, who are found sighing and crying, and shall have cried day and night for deliverance from the death decree will then receive the seal/mark of the sealing angel just BEFORE the slaughter commences during “the silence in Heaven for the space of half an hour” (2SC5,6:10.2).

Now, In order for this to be false there needs to be something else so clear and compelling as night and day. Here is an example of two contradicting passages on the same truth in which both cannot be accepted as true in the final analysis. Let us compare 2SR:146.3 (1932) with 2TG7:14.1 (1947) which interprets Dan. 12:2.

Here is the meaning of the word “event” portrayed in the “golden bowl,” 1SR:17.2, 4; 1SR:156.3
