The terrible event to be expected: Great Balls of Fire.
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. (Revelation 13:11-14)
Last Friday morning, just before I awoke, a very impressive scene was presented before me. I seemed to awake from sleep but was not in my home. From the windows I could behold a terrible conflagration. Great balls of fire were falling upon houses, and from these balls fiery arrows were flying in every direction. It was impossible to check the fires that were kindled, and many places were being destroyed. The terror of the people was indescribable. After a time I awoke and found myself at home.—Evangelism, 29 (1906). {LDE 24.3}
I saw an immense ball of fire fall among some beautiful mansions, causing their instant destruction. I heard someone say: “We knew that the judgments of God were coming upon the earth, but we did not know that they would come so soon.” Others, with agonized voices, said: “You knew! Why then did you not tell us? We did not know.”—Testimonies for the Church 9:28 (1909). {LDE 25.1}
God gives us clocks that tell time, but He leaves it to our intelligence to figure out how the prophecies and their fulfillments through world events align to the times on the clock. We are seeing more and more how the principle applies, which Jesus Himself explained:
And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. (John 14:29)
We should show belief when the true character of symbolic prophecies is revealed. Prophecies are given as warnings—warnings of the wrath of God, which will soon be poured out, unmixed with mercy. Many, however, don’t seem satisfied with the fulfillment of symbolic prophecies. For example, they are waiting for a literal mountain to indeed fall into the sea as the fulfillment of the second trumpet. That is why they think of an asteroid or comet. In so doing, however, they forget that in the third trumpet a whole star would have to fall to the ground, leaving no room for the remaining trumpets or plagues to be fulfilled, because a star would already involve the entire planet in its atom-melting process, which would be very difficult for mankind to survive.
The warning trumpets are not destruction in the sense of the plagues, but symbols of world-shaking events in politics and religion. They help you hypothesize what the plagues will bring upon mankind when the vial of God’s wrath has been filled and poured out. We will still be in a complementary trumpet cycle until August 20, 2018, during which there will be no events that completely destroy the world. Unfortunately, people do not pay attention to these divine warnings, which come like the still small voice that Elijah recognized God in.
And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord. And, behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the Lord was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah? (1 Kings 19:11-13)
The destruction of the plagues will begin at two different points in time, because the door of mercy for mankind will close a little later than the door of mercy for the apostate Seventh-day Adventist Church, which did not fulfill their God-given mission, and did not warn the world with the message of the fourth angel (which is the loud cry of the third angel). Their punishment must come sooner for that reason.
For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? (1 Peter 4:17)
The still small voice is the voice of the Holy Spirit speaking to us. The 372 portions of the Holy Spirit, which for a long time we thought was for the time of plagues, have already been used up. The mercy of God is shown by the fact that since November 22, 2016, we have been allowed to use the 636 rations which are still left from the delayed beginning of the judgment of the living (see Daniel’s Timelines). However, those will also be exhausted on August 20, 2018, and then the Holy Spirit will be completely withdrawn from the earth. That will be the beginning of the plagues for mankind.
The beginning of the punishment for God’s judgment church (Laodicea) must therefore be a short time before August 20, 2018. This punishment will be the falling fireballs that will destroy the Adventists’ “mansions,” including their General Conference building. Since the seventh and last trumpet is the time of plagues itself, and they will last exactly 280 days according to our latest understanding—the gestation period of a woman before the birth pangs of the coming Savior—the only other time for the judgement to begin at the house of God is the beginning of the sixth complementary trumpet. It is a throne line, which is very appropriate for the topic. It points to the date range of June 3-10, 2018.
Now something frightening appears. Let’s think back on Brother John’s Carmel Challenge of 2015. God showed him that the sixth trumpet would be the date of the fireballs upon His fallen church. That prompted him to write the following on April 20, 2015, a few months before July 8, 2015, the sixth trumpet of the original cycle...
The Challenge
This date for Elijah’s modern challenge was set by God (and definitely not by us, because we weren’t alive at the time of Elijah).
The sixth trumpet is the perfect moment for such a divine event, because in the text of the sixth trumpet, we find that it was set for an hour, day, month, and year.[1]
The sixth trumpet of the trumpet cycle of Orion will bring destruction and death to those who have crept into the church of God to destroy it from within. The modern prophets of Baal and Asherah will meet their end on that day (and in the period following it).
I, John Scotram, as representative of the High Sabbath Adventists, now lift up my eyes to God in the Orion Nebula and say with Elijah:
O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, let it be known on that day—Wednesday, July 8, 2015—that Thou art God in Israel, and that I am Thy servant, and that I have done all these things according to Thy word. Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that this people may know that Thou art the Lord God, and that Thou hast turned their heart back again.
Cleanse Thou, O Lord, Thy house from the stench of the Jesuits and the apostasy! Let Your consuming fire, according to Ezekiel 9, do its work so that Your church can again shine with the light You chose for her, that it may lighten the whole earth.
We, the High Sabbath Adventists, summon you, Ted Wilson, apostate leadership of the Adventist Church, heads of the formerly Protestant churches, and the WHOLE OF CHRISTIANITY, to a decision point, to follow either He who created you, or the one who will destroy you. It is our desire that you may give God the honor and the authority that is anchored in His seventh-day Sabbath!
If we are wrong and God will not let fire come down from heaven, then July 8, 2015 will be the end of this movement and the websites of the two witnesses—the Clock of God and the Vessel of Time, which have tormented the inhabitants of the earth (especially Adventists).[2] Then you can continue—with no hope of Christ’s speedy return—to pursue your sins undisturbed, and believe that everything has been done at the cross and that everyone—from child killer to rapist, from pedophile to the patron of the animal brothels of Denmark[3]—is automatically saved as long as he merely calls on the name of Jesus without any change of behavior.
[Note: One way or another, the blame for these events will be put on us! Let no one come to the foolish idea of wanting to help out! It must be a visible judgment from God without any human intervention! We are not fanatics who threaten anyone with death. We ask God to intervene, because we ourselves are impotent. And if He is with us, He will fight for us while we hide![4]]
But if we are right and the last five years of preaching have not been in vain, then for many it will be too late to repent. Many will die, and the fire that starts in San Antonio, will spread over the entire globe. There is plenty to cleanse—not just the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. The Sunday laws will follow very quickly, and the survivors will recognize that we were right all along.
It will all happen with the speed of a divine windstorm, so that there will barely be enough time to breathe. The latter rain will be poured out so hard over the last faithful people of God that everyone who is missing from the 144,000 will be found and sealed in just three and a half months.
The outpouring of the Spirit in the days of the apostles was “the former rain,” and glorious was the result. But the latter rain will be more abundant. {LDE 185.5}[5]
The destruction did not come over the church at the time, but we did not have to give up. God granted a deferral, and the Seventh-day Adventist Church used a trick to avoid their destruction at that time. Today we know that God has long been following another plan. Nevertheless, that was one of the most critical points of our mission, because Brother John had clearly heard the voice of the Lord, which is what caused him to make the Challenge.
A divine mystery was revealed during the course of the second time proclamation, described in detail in the Sacrifice of Philadelphia series. We learned that the trumpet cycle was not only split in two, but also that the second pass runs in the opposite direction. The fact that it was indeed so, was only recently (as of this writing) confirmed by the exact date of the second complementary trumpet on March 6, 2017, which we predicted in advance.
That means time is running backwards! We discovered this phenomenon not only in the complementary trumpet cycle, but also in a backwards-running High Sabbath List, which suddenly presents in a compressed form, behaving like a chromosome just before cell division, i.e. before its multiplication. By virtue of the fact that the light from the beacon of time reached us on April 27, 2013, we were able to determine the point in the history of mankind, or in that of God’s last-day church, to which we would have to return. We are traveling back in time to the year of the 70th jubilee from when the jubilee was first instituted, which commenced on the Day of Atonement in 1890. God brings us back to the beginning of the fourth angel’s message, when the Seventh-day Adventist Church committed its fatal mistake in 1888, thus preventing Jesus from coming in 1890.
God held back the Sun of Righteousness on October 23, 2016, like how He did at the time of Joshua so that the battle could come to a victorious end. Jesus shouldn’t have come yet so that many could bear witness to the Father. On the sundial of Ahaz, however, the shadow did not just stop—it went backwards!
Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down. (Isaiah 38:8)
Nothing written in the Word of God is without meaning. God clearly shows that He is Time, and that He can do with it what He wants, even running it backwards when He assents to a selfless request.
So regardless of whether we view the complementary trumpet cycle as a stand-alone cycle or as the reversion of the original trumpet cycle, we always revisit every single trumpet of the original cycle during our journey into the past. In the Prophecies Fulfilled section of White Cloud Farm, our new study website, we are writing about the additional fulfillments of the trumpet texts, which had not yet been completely fulfilled in the first pass. We have already found astounding harmonies. Each individual prophecy of each text is now being complemented, hence the name of the new cycle.
That is how we come back to the sixth trumpet of the original cycle, when the request of the man whose “return” was prophesied in Malachi chapter 4 was heard by God at the exact time prophesied. On June 3, 2018, which corresponds to July 8, 2015, the Carmel Challenge of John Scotram and the High Sabbath Adventists will be visibly answered by God before the whole world, and fire will be upon the apostate Seventh-day Adventist Church from then up to and including June 10, 2018. Then it will be clear that they had the truth but did not live up to it. (Any other interpretation of their destruction is a lie from Satan!) May God then have mercy on those who see the judgments of God, which will befall all men shortly thereafter, and convert prior to August 20, 2018.
God has given much additional light that confirms that we are indeed already in the time of the plagues, although humanity is lured into a false sense of security, because they interpret biblical texts incorrectly and too literally. This fulfills prophecy:
