I met Br. Jeff Pippenger in Holland and Germany. He has a few interesting discoveries in the prophecies leading up to 1844. Mostly tho, you can just read Uriah Smith's book and get most of the same information.

When shown from Ellen White's second vision that right after the sealing was completed the 7 Last Plagues were poured out, he said i was misapplying that. Sorry to say, it seems that when an inspired writing cuts across his theories, he doesn't like it too much....

I don't see any "sermons online" at this site.

I know jeff pretty well, and he supports the biblical view that the 4 angels are going to hold the four winds of strife while probationary time is open for humanity. And that once the close of probation arrives, then and not before the seven plagues are poured out because the 4 angels do not hold the winds from this point on any longer. That´s number one.

And number two, it is also false what you say that Jeff is pretty much saying what Uriath Smith wrote in that book. I wonder why, if you don´t know, you speak as if you knew, and people may get a wrong idea about this good man. He is very logic, very inteligent, with a lot of common sense, and coutious about his conclusions. Jeff has been blessed by God with loads of new light, prophetic truths that concerns us in this present time. But at the same time he defends the forgotten prophetic truths in the Seventh-day adventism, the ones the pioneers held. And building upon that firm platform he advanced in new prophetic light. For example Daniel 11:40-45. The role of Islam in Bible prophecy with the Third woe, the seven churches, the seven thunders, the sealing time, revelation 17,18. Etc.... A lot of people are studying these truths, and are seeing a great blessing, this is the final message for adventism and the world.

ITS interessting concerning EGW saying about the latter rain starting to fall that no one will say "I belong to Paul", and "I belong to Kaifas" etc. The very people who endorse Pippenger clearly states we are depended on "his ideas" for salvation.
This doens't fit with the quote I read.
When people are united the sprinkling will start, when people manifest the love of Christ. Not unified by fear but by love.

I agree.. when clear statements from egw doesn't fit with the theory we are claimed to misread those quotes, but when they use unclear quotes to fit with the theory then they are reading them correctly. This isn't fair.

Sir, as i wrote in October 4, 2006 posting, i met the man in both Holland and Germany in summer 2006. I listened to several of his sermons. Basically he says the 7 trumpets are in the past. When i showed him the inspired word that the sealing of the 144,000 must be in the future, he got riled at me, and said i was taking it out of context. The problem is, IF the sealing of the 144,000 is future to where we are today, then the 5th trumpet CANNOT HAVE POSSIBLY SOUNDED YET.

My blood brother and i just spent over an hour studying Ezekiel 9 along with the Revelation 7, 8 and 9. It is clear that the trumpets happen AFTER the 144,000 are sealed in their foreheads.

Anonymous of October 3 wrote "The role of Islam in Bible prophecy with the Third woe". How can this be, when the first and second "woes" have not even occurred yet????

Stephen Dickie is promoting the idea that the Muslims were the first "woe" which cannot be right either. Why is it that us SDAs are trying to fit Islam into any of the "woes"?

Date: May 9, 2009

Because Islam is a hot topic. confuse

"And now, little children, abide in him, that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming." 1 John 2:28

In response to the webmaster and his following quote: "Stephen Dickie is promoting the idea that the Muslims were the first "woe" which cannot be right either. Why is it that us SDAs are trying to fit Islam into any of the "woes"?

What everyone has to understand is this: 1. The pioneer chart of 1843 which was a representation of ALL of the truth's that were taught by our pioneers, portrayed Islam as the first and second woe! If you are faithful to inspiration, check out this quote:

"I have seen that the 1843 chart was directed by the hand of the Lord, and that it should not be altered; that the figures were as He wanted them; that His hand was over and hid a mistake in some of the figures, so that none could see it, until His hand was removed." EW 74

We can see clearly, if we are willing, that the pioneers taught that the first and second woe were represented by Islam AND that sister White was shown that THAT chart was "directed by the hand of the Lord" and "that it should not be altered". Friends the only mistake was the inclusion of the year zero. That was soon adjusted, but a disappointment was intended to try the people.
I also can provide you with the pioneers arguments that Islam was represented by the first and second woe and WHY!

THIS is just one reason as to why we "are trying to fit Islam into" the woes. Blessings

Here's a high-res picture of the 1843 chart:
http://defendingthegospel.com/library/williammiller/charts/Millerite1843chart_1546x2003.jpg

Yes, i fully believe the chart was led of God. It led them to prepare to meet their Master in 1843.

William Miller wrote some rules of Biblical interpretation. While not inspired, i believe them to be very sound rules. Let's take a look at number 13:
http://www.earlysda.com/miller/william-miller-biography-2.html

"13. To know whether we have the true historical event for the fulfillment of a prophecy: If you find every word of the prophecy (after the figures are understood) is literally fulfilled, then you may know that your history is the true event; but if one word lacks a fulfillment, then you must look for another event, or wait its future development; for God takes care that history and prophecy shall agree, so that the true believing children of God may never be ashamed. Ps. 22:5; Isa. 45:17-19; 1 Pet. 2:6; Rev. 17:17; Acts 3:18."

Notice the part i bolded especially.

Rev 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

Did the people of God in 1843 have any understanding at all of the "seal of God"? No. We know now that this refers to the sealing in the forehead of the 144,000 saints who will be alive when Jesus comes. These will be the ones who keep the Sabbath when all the world declares it void.

As of present, 2009, there is no one who has received either the seal of God, or the Mark of the Beast. That these two processes occur simultaneously is obvious, but if there is a question about this we could start a new thread on this topic.

Some other words that have not been fulfilled yet:
Rev 9:6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

Who sought death during the Mahometan invasions but could not find it?

Rev 9:10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.

Where on the chart is anything about the tails at all? Nothing.

Rev 9:15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.

Were 1/3 of all humans killed during the Mahometan wars? No.

Also on the 1843 chart, it shows Daniel 12:12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. But there is one little problem with that -- There is no zero year date to throw the prophecy off!!! Take 508 and add 1335 and you will come to a year when nothing happened. How can it be said at the last of the explanation of the greatest time prophecies in the Bible "blessed is he who waits" and comes to the year when nothing happened?????

So these are a few reasons why i know that none of the woes have even started yet. Besides, common sense would tell any honest seeker, that if something so bad God calls a "woe", is something that happened long ago that hardly two people can agree over, then God's "woes" are pretty puny, and not to be feared. No, no, God's woes will be awesome, and will captivate the attention of all the world like nothing else possibly could.

Let's be ready ourselves, and help others prepare for what is going to come on the world like an "overwhelming surprise".

I just went to Jeff Pippenger's website, and looked a few minutes at his February 2009 newsletter - what a mishmash! And as i remember from before, there are tons of quotes seeming to back up his statements, while all the while ignoring the obvious statements in inspired words that directly refute such ideas.

He writes: "The "golden oil" which is the "communications which" God "sends us" comes through the "golden pipes" which for the disciples during Pentecost was the law and the prophets, for the Millerites were the Old and New Testaments, and for the 144,000 are the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy. "

Well, THAT is certainly a new interpretation that i've never heard anyone say before.

"The first work of the latter rain message is to awaken the sleeping virgins of Adventism; "
This cannot be true. Please read chapter 32 "The Shaking" in the original Great Controversy book, and you will see that AFTER they are shaken, THEN the Latter Rain will be poured out.

Then he gives another original idea: "The progressive nature of the latter rain message is represented by the "Lion of the tribe of Judah" removing the seven seals from Gods word. "

He even quotes basically what i showed him in his room at the Holland camp-meeting in 2006: "The sealing time is very short, and will soon be over. Now is the time, while the four angels are holding the four winds, to make our calling and election sure. Early Writings, 58."

But while at the camp-meeting when i showed him this, and showed that at the minimum, the 5th, 6th, and 7th trumpets cannot have started yet, he got angry, and said i do not properly interpret this quote. But now i see he has a totally unique, unfounded, erroneous twist on this quote by writing:

"The sealing time begins when the four angels of Revelation seven restrain the four winds of strife, the sealing only lasts a short period of time before all of Gods people are sealed. In 2001, the United States and the United Nations together placed a restraint upon radical Islam, thus marking when the restraining of the four winds began; for the four winds are Islam, the "angry horse" of Bible prophecy."

What Garbage! How can anyone listen to this poor, deluded man? How much longer will God's remnant people be put to sleep with interpreters of the visions saying one day that nearly everything is in the past, and then the next day showing that it is talking about Islam or "progressive Latter Rain"?

I speak strongly, because i'm passionate about this subject. Really, how much longer will we Seventh-day Adventists not study our Bibles to see that the entire Bible especially has an immediate application for the 144,000???

I do not know much about Jeff Pippenger! However, I do believe that the time prophecies of Daniel chapter 12 are future as well as past. Marion Berry has done an excellent job of confirming this without any shadow of a doubt. To the law and the testimony... The NSL (National Sunday Law) begins the 1335 and the VOG (Voice of God) announces the blessing at the end of the 1335. Check it out for your self.

Date: Jun 20, 2009

I too believe the blessing at the end of the 1335 is in the future. I heard a couple of weeks ago from a friend in Switzerland that Marion Berry is teaching that some of these things have a future application, and now you have confirmed it for me. It is exciting to hear that there are others studying deeply into these things smile

Date: Jul 14, 2009

Guys, guys, guys. We misquote one and qoute another. has not the Spirit of prophecy shed enough light on revelation 10, that these events repeat at the end of time? 1840-1844 begin to repeat when the other angel comes down to empower the 3rd angel.

"Time shall be no longer" - no more time prophecies after 1844. placing the 1335 to end at a time after 1844 is misapplication of Scripture. The longest time prophecy, ends in 1844.

How does rain fall? It begins in sprinkles first, the a heavy downpour. the latter rain begins to sprinke first, then a heavy downpour.

Listen to Jeff Pipenger in context. you may not agree with every detail, as me, but the general direction seems to be truth: probationary time is about to close.

When does the sealing (for SDA) end??? Any help??

Date: Jul 14, 2009

According to all the inspired words i can find pertaining to the subject, there is no more "day for a year" prophetic principle after 1844. That has nothing at all to do with the fact that there is still time after 1844.

It is also clear that there was no "blessing" for those who came to 1843. Nothing at all happened then, which is of course when the 1335 days supposedly ended. In reading the Spirit of Prophecy, we see that these things are future. The 7 Trumpets also are ALL clearly future, as no one, let alone 144,000, have been sealed yet with the seal of the living God as of July 2009.

The sealing of the 144,000 cannot happen until right around the time of the Mark of the Beast. Thus you get two groups developed. I'm pretty sure that none of us SDAs believe that anyone has the Mark of the Beast yet, which is another strong sign that no one has the Seal of the Living God in their foreheads yet either. Please read Ezekiel 9. It shows that while the sealing is going on, the unfaithful leaders and their families are being slaughtered. The slaughtering has not occurred yet, which is another strong indication that the Sealing has not occurred yet.

The Latter Rain will not be poured out until the Shaking is over. Please read the 1858 Great Controversy book - chapters 30 - 37 to get a clear picture of the timings of the end time events.

Date: Jul 15, 2009

What is the seal of God according to Spirit of Prophecy? Please quote directly.
Which one happens before the other? Sunday Law or slaughter of unfaithful SDA?
Which one happens before the other? Seal of God or slaughter of unfaithful SDA?

Many of us are confused on this point. Help me out.

Broadside #2:
"In these things I saw great danger; for if the mind is filled with other things, present truth is shut out, and there is no place in our foreheads for the seal of the living God. This seal is the Sabbath."

I am not sure about #2 or #3, but think that the slaughter is after both events. Please tell me what you have found in your studies.

Spirit of Prophecy on Rev
Rev 14-17 (ch. 14:9-12). Tested by the Image.--The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. . . . [Revelation 13:11-17 quoted.] . . . {7BC 976.2}
This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast (Letter 11, 1890). {7BC 976.3}

To the best of my current understanding:
IF the test has to come before God's people are sealed, so that they choose either the Mark of the Beast or the Seal of God, THEN it is LOGICAL to say that the two classes of God's people (faithful and unfaithful) be alive before the slaughter of the unfaithful (unless the slaughter is spisritual).

The seal is the Sabbath, and more accurately (emphasis mine):

What the Seal of God Is

Just as soon as the people of God are sealed in their foreheads--it is not any seal or mark that can be seen, but a settling into the truth, both intellectually and spiritually, so they cannot be moved--just as soon as God's people are sealed and prepared for the shaking, it will come. Indeed, it has begun already.--4BC 1161 (1902). {LDE 219.4}

I mean: The slaughter of unfaithful SDAs happens after both the faithful and unfaithful have faced the mark and have chosen either the Mark of the Beast or the Seal of God, unless that slaughter is spiritual.

Happy Sabbath to you all

That is good LS. I believe that is the correct sequence.

The slaughter is literal according to 18OM, but as it is not in Ellen White's published writings, it should not be taken as her established position: "Study the ninth chapter of Ezekiel. These words will be literally fulfilled; yet the time is passing, and the people are asleep."

Notice the following statement from the Pen of Inspiration regarding the seal. It is clear that the seal is received at the sunday law test. Though it must be made clear that a great preparation must be made in order to be fit to receive the seal. The seal, however, is not received until that final test comes. Furthermore, it states that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes.

The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. . . . [Rev. 13:11-17 quoted.] . . .

"This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed."

Thank you Anonymous. This is a quote i've read and heard many times, but forgot to apply it to this situation. That is why we need each other :)

This is just too abundantly clear that the seal of the 144,000, God's people, is IN THE FUTURE. And if it is in the future, then where does that place the 7 Trumpets?

Agreed: The rules for using this forum should be followed by all

But I think the best way to look at things is to consider that there are only two voices. One leads towards purification, the other leads towards damnation.

What do you think? In my humble opinion, the truth is what is to be spoken out (unhidden) regardless of who is saying it. Let the people judge what is truth or what is error through their own study of the Bible and not depending on the identity of the speaker

What do others think about it?

By the way: So far, I see Jeff Pippenger to be correct in his conclusions. I am still studying out other aspects of the message
