The Countdown is ticking, and we present a new study here that is complementary to Orion and reveals many dates of the end-time events. This is the long-awaited third part and centerpiece of the shadow series.
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. (Revelation 3:3)

A Prophecy About the Sabbath
As with the study of Orion, we begin this study by looking at statements of The Spirit of Prophecy that are widely known but not understood:
I saw that God had children who do not see and keep the Sabbath. They have not rejected the light upon it. And at the commencement of the time of trouble, we were filled with the Holy Ghost as we went forth and proclaimed the Sabbath more fully. This enraged the churches and nominal Adventists, [see also appendix.] as they could not refute the Sabbath truth. And at this time God’s chosen all saw clearly that we had the truth, and they came out and endured the persecution with us. I saw the sword, famine, pestilence, and great confusion in the land. The wicked thought that we had brought the judgments upon them, and they rose up and took counsel to rid the earth of us, thinking that then the evil would be stayed. {EW 33.2}
The Same Event in Another Vision
In Ellen G. White’s first vision, the commencement of the time of trouble was described like this: Soon we heard the voice of God like many waters, which gave us the day and hour of Jesus’ coming. The living saints, 144,000 in number, knew and understood the voice, while the wicked thought it was thunder and an earthquake. When God spoke the time, He poured upon us the Holy Ghost, and our faces began to light up and shine with the glory of God, as Moses’ did when he came down from Mount Sinai. {EW 14.1}
A Comparison Reveals…
When God spoke the time, He poured upon us the Holy Ghost [Ellen G. White’s first vision]
And at the commencement of the time of trouble, we were filled with the Holy Ghost as we went forth and proclaimed the Sabbath more fully. [Ellen G. White’s subsequent vision]
… that the time proclamation at the outpouring of the Holy Ghost (the Latter Rain) is based upon a more complete understanding of the SABBATH!!!
A Hint in the Bible
I stumbled over John 19:31 while searching the Scriptures for a hint as to what the expression of Ellen G. White about a deeper understanding of the Sabbath could mean…
The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. (John 19:31)
The High Sabbaths
Definition: A high Sabbath day is a day when a ceremonial Sabbath and a Seventh-day Sabbath fall upon the very same day!
In the crucifixion year of 31 AD, the ceremonial Sabbath of the first day of unleavened bread, Nissan 15, was ALSO a Seventh-day Sabbath.
And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the Lord: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread. In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein. (Leviticus 23:6-7)
Are the High Sabbaths a Prophecy?
Thinking back on the Shadows of the Sacrifices articles, we can see that the feast day ordinances in Leviticus 23 have the same structure as the ordinances given by God for the numbers of sacrifices for those days, which already revealed a time prophecy in Numbers 28… the duration of the time of the plagues.
First God gives the “key” with the daily sacrifices [Numbers 28:3-8] and then He gives the “prophecy” with the ordinances later in the chapter.
A Key to Time: The Seventh-day Sabbath
We find this very same structure in Leviticus 23.
God first gives the key to the time prophecy in Leviticus 23:3…
Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.
Then He gives the time prophecy itself, explaining the ceremonial Sabbaths in detail in the rest of the chapter.
Some More Hints…
Christ Himself was the originator of the Jewish system of worship, in which, by types and symbols, were shadowed forth spiritual and heavenly things. Many forgot the true significance of these offerings; and the great truth that through Christ alone there is forgiveness of sin, was lost to them. The multiplying of sacrificial offerings, the blood of bulls and goats, could not take away sin. . . . {AG 155.3}
Christians who profess to be Bible students can appreciate more fully than ancient Israel did the full signification of the ceremonial ordinances that they were required to observe. If they are indeed Christians, they are prepared to acknowledge the sacredness and importance of the shadowy types, as they see the accomplishment of the events which they represent. The death of Christ gives the Christian a correct knowledge of the system of ceremonies and explains prophecies which still remain obscure to the Jews. {RH May 6, 1875, par. 12}
That which was type and symbol to the Jews is reality to us. {COL 317.2}
The Lord Jesus was the foundation of the whole Jewish economy. Its imposing services were of divine appointment. They were designed to teach the people that at the time appointed One would come to whom those ceremonies pointed. {COL 34.4}
All the ceremonies of the Jewish law were prophetic, typical of mysteries in the plan of redemption. {6BC 1095.5}
Arguments drawn from the Old-Testament types also pointed to the autumn as the time when the event represented by the “cleansing of the sanctuary” must take place. This was made very clear as attention was given to the manner in which the types relating to the first advent of Christ had been fulfilled. {GC88 398.4}
These types were fulfilled, not only as to the event, but as to the time. {GC 399.3}
In like manner, the types which relate to the second advent must be fulfilled at the time pointed out in the symbolic service. {GC 399.4}
The rites and ceremonies of the law were given by Christ Himself, who, enshrouded in a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, was the leader of the hosts of Israel; and this law should be treated with great respect, for it is sacred. Even after it was no longer to be observed, Paul presented it before the Jews in its true position and value, showing its place in the plan of redemption and its relation to the work of Christ; and the great apostle pronounces this law glorious, worthy of its divine Originator. {6BC 1095.6}
Through the teachings of the sacrificial service, Christ was to be uplifted before all nations, and all who would look to Him should live. Christ was the foundation of the Jewish economy. The whole system of types and symbols was a compacted prophecy of the gospel, a presentation in which were bound up the promises of redemption. {AA 14.1}
We do not half understand the Lord’s plan in taking the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage, and leading them through the wilderness into Canaan. As we gather up the divine rays shining from the gospel, we shall have a clearer insight into the Jewish economy, and a deeper appreciation of its important truths. Our exploration of truth is yet incomplete. We have gathered up only a few rays of light. Those who are not daily students of the Word will not solve the problems of the Jewish economy. They will not understand the truths taught by the Temple service. The work of God is hindered by a worldly understanding of His great plan. The future life will unfold the meaning of the laws that Christ, enshrouded in the pillar of cloud, gave to His people. Letter 156, 1903, pp. 2, 3. (To P. T. Magan, July 27, 1903) {3MR 259.1}
Unlocking the Prophecy
How do we use the Seventh-day Sabbath as a key to unlock the prophecy of the ceremonial law?
If the Seventh-day Sabbaths are the keys, the ceremonial Sabbaths are the lock [prophecy]!
But not ALL Seventh-day Sabbaths fit into the lock!
The keys that correctly fit into the prophecy of the ceremonial Sabbaths are only those Seventh-day Sabbaths that fall upon ceremonial Sabbaths:
THE HIGH SABBATHS
Using the Key
Having deciphered Orion in January 2010 and having found the real Jewish calendar after that, I wondered if the history of the Adventist Church which was written into the Heavenly Sanctuary (Orion constellation) would be repeated in its reflection… the earthly sanctuary or in other words: THE CEREMONIAL SYSTEM OF THE FEAST DAYS.
To investigate whether or not this is true, I had to compile a list of all the High Sabbaths throughout Adventist history and later investigate to see if a message were indeed hidden there.
Using the real Jewish calendar as described in the Full Moon at Gethsemane articles, I started to calculate astronomically which ceremonial Sabbaths of the Jewish feast days would have fallen upon Seventh-day Sabbaths since 1841.
Working hard
I spent some weeks between August 2010 and September 2010 until I had the result in the form of a code list in front of my eyes.
The astronomical calculations are rather difficult to do, but they are explained in detail in the articles about Gethsemane.
Additionally, I discovered a very important criterion for the first crescent moon visibility as given by the New Moon Society of Israel. This discovery did not alter the eschatological part of the High Sabbath List (HSL)…
The Wadsworth Criteria
In the first version of the HSL, I did not include the Wadsworth criteria which tells us that the new crescent moon is only visible from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem if the elevation of the moon is above 8 degrees. In a former blog on Michael Rood’s website we could read:
According to the parameters established in 1996 by Biblical Astronomer Robert Scott Wadsworth, as published in Michael Rood’s first “Astronomically Corrected Biblical Hebrew Calendar” in 1997, and confirmed by the lunar observations in the land of Israel by the Israeli New Moon Society; it is possible for the renewed moon to be sighted in the land of Israel, under ideal atmospheric conditions, when the moon is at least 1% illuminated, 8 degrees above the horizon, at five minutes after sunset.
Because the North American continent is at least 7 hours later than Jerusalem in astronomical time, and as much as 14 hours later in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska, many times the new moon will be sighted after sundown in the Western hemisphere the evening before it can possibly be seen in Israel. Since Jerusalem is the city of the Great King who will rule over all the earth, it is the position of Michael Rood as well as scores of Messianic, Karaite, and even some Rabbinic Jews, that the Creator’s time clock is set and established from Jerusalem today – just as it was 2,000 years ago when the Messiah kept the Feasts and the weekly Sabbath according to the same reckoning established by the Almighty when we came out of Egypt.
The 8 Degrees
If you look at the photo you will immediately understand why the moon is only visible from the temple mount if it is at least 8 degrees elevated from the horizon. There is a mountain chain covering the horizon at exactly 8 degrees.
The Result
On September 17, 2010, I had the first HSL in front of me.
It was still not corrected by the Wadsworth criteria, but it already showed the most important aspects of the list. Not to confuse the reader, in this presentation I will only use the corrected version.
When you see the next slide, you will understand that it was not easy to decipher the list and that only the Holy Spirit can guide someone to that point…
The High Sabbath List
The Structure of the HSL
First, I would like to briefly explain the structure of the “High Sabbath List” (HSL)…
The first column is the year number to which the rest of the row relates.
The second column “Spring 1” shows the POSSIBLE fulfillment of a HIGH SABBATH of the spring feasts in the case that the barley was found during the first search.
The third column “Spring 2” shows the POSSIBLE fulfillment of a HIGH SABBATH of the spring feasts in the case that the barley was NOT found during the first search.
The fourth column “Autumn 1” shows the POSSIBLE fulfillment of a HIGH SABBATH of the fall feasts in the case that the barley was found during the first search.
The fifth column “Autumn 2” shows the POSSIBLE fulfillment of a HIGH SABBATH of the fall feasts in the case that the barley was NOT found during the first search.
The last column is a summary of the POSSIBLE fulfillments of HIGH SABBATHS irrespective of which column they appeared in.
The Code Has Two Main Columns!
How Were the Feasts Determined?
As we have seen in the other articles of the shadow series, the spring feasts began in the first Jewish month and the fall festivals in the seventh Jewish month.
The months were determined by the new crescent moon marking the beginning of each month.
The first set of columns show the spring festivals that fall upon a Seventh-day Sabbath (High Sabbath as in John 19:31) and depend on the first new moon after the vernal equinox and the barley harvest.
The second set of columns show the autumn festivals that are fulfilled on Seventh-day Sabbaths (High Sabbaths as in John 19:31) and depend on the seventh new moon after the vernal equinox and the barley harvest.
The Beginning of the Feasts Under the Moon 
Spring and Autumn 
The High Sabbath Codes
In the list you find codes like N1, N2, N3 and T1, T2.
Those codes are abbreviations for special groups of HIGH SABBATHS that CAN occur in the spring feasts (Nissan = N) or the autumn feasts (Tishri = T).
There are only three groups of ceremonial Sabbaths for the Spring feasts (N1 to N3) and only two groups of ceremonial Sabbaths for the Autumn feasts (T1 to T2).
The High Sabbath Groups
The N1 code is fulfilled if Passover and the ceremonial Sabbath of the 7th Day of Unleavened Bread fall upon Seventh-day Sabbaths. Those feast days are seven days apart.
The N2 code is fulfilled if the 1st Day of Unleavened Bread and the 7 Omer Sabbaths until Pentecost fall upon Seventh-day Sabbaths. Those feast days are seven days apart.
The N3 code is fulfilled if the Waving of the Sheaf of Firstfruits and the ceremonial Sabbath of Pentecost fall upon Seventh-day Sabbaths. Those feast days are seven days apart.
The T1 code is fulfilled if the Feast of Trumpets, the 1st Day of Tabernacles and the ceremonial Sabbath after Tabernacles (Shemini Atzeret) fall upon Seventh-day Sabbaths. Those feast days are seven days apart.
The T2 code is fulfilled if the ceremonial Sabbath of the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) falls upon a Seventh-day Sabbath.
How Can We Read the HSL?
Now that you understand the structure and the codes of the HSL, ask yourself how to READ the HSL…
What information is in there for us?
How would you decipher the long confusing list of codes?
There does not seem to be any order in it at first sight, but our God is a God of order! His Time Prophecy in the feast days also has order as you will see…
Deciphering the “Hieroglyphs”
When I saw the results of my biblical-astronomical calculations for the first time, I was reminded in prayer about how the Egyptian hieroglyphs were deciphered.
For many centuries, archeologists and linguists could not read the inscriptions of the pyramids because they could not tell if the hieroglyphs formed words, letters or syllables.
As you can read on Wikipedia, in 1822 James Francois Champollion used the “Rosetta Stone” to decipher the whole Egyptian alphabet.
The Rosetta Stone had been inscribed in 196 BC and was found in the sand in 1799 by a French soldier of Napoleon’s army.
It carries a three-language inscription that made it possible to COMPARE the un-deciphered hieroglyphs with the known Greek alphabet, and thus the hieroglyphs began to speak to us.
We are in need of such a “Rosetta Stone” to decipher the HSL. We do not know what the code sequences mean! We do not know the length of the words, syllables or what the letters even are.
Digging for the Rosetta Stone
Where should we dig for a hint if not in the inspired writings?
Our first clues to discover the HSL were found in quotes of the marvelous writings of Ellen G. White…
So why not search her writings for the Rosetta Stone?
Don’t assume it would be easy to find, but the Holy Spirit gave me the answer after just one prayer…
Digging for Treasures
But there must be earnest study and close investigation. Sharp, clear perceptions of truth will never be the reward of indolence. No earthy blessing can be obtained without earnest, patient, persevering effort. If men attain success in business, they must have a will to do and a faith to look for results. And we cannot expect to gain spiritual knowledge without earnest toil. Those who desire to find the treasures of truth must dig for them as the miner digs for the treasure hidden in the earth. No halfhearted, indifferent work will avail. It is essential for old and young, not only to read God’s word, but to study it with wholehearted earnestness, praying and searching for truth as for hidden treasure. Those who do this will be rewarded, for Christ will quicken the understanding.
Our salvation depends on a knowledge of the truth contained in the Scriptures. It is God’s will that we should possess this. Search, O search the precious Bible with hungry hearts. Explore God’s word as the miner explores the earth to find veins of gold. Never give up the search until you have ascertained your relation to God and His will in regard to you. Christ declared, “Whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask anything in My name, I will do it.” John 14:13, 14. {COL 111.2–3}
Finding the Rosetta Stone
Searching the Internet, I found a statement that is attributed to Ellen G. White, but controversial. Indeed, the BRI refuses to attribute it to her, and that denial called my special attention to it…
“I saw that Jones and Waggoner had their counterpart in Joshua and Caleb. As the children of Israel stoned the spies with literal stones, you have stoned these brethren with stones of sarcasm and ridicule. I saw that you willfully rejected what you knew to be truth, just because it was too humiliating to your dignity. I saw some of you in your tents mimicking and making all manner of fun of these two brethren. I also saw that if you had accepted their message, we would have been in the kingdom two years from that date, but now we have to go back into the wilderness and there stay forty years.” GCB May 9, 1892 (Melbourne, Australia).
Verifying the Rosetta Stone
To refute the opinion of the BRI, please read the following:
In the Union Conference Record in 1899, Steven N. Haskell, a longtime friend and supporter of Ellen G. White wrote in an article entitled “The Third Angel’s Message,” as follows: “Do you think we are in the last days? We are in the last days of the very last generation. We are ten years in the loud cry of the Third Angel’s Message. There is a testimony in the Bulletin, published in 1892, which says: ‘If the people of God had gone to work as they should have gone to work right after the Minneapolis meeting in 1888, the world could have been warned in two years, and the Lord would have come.’ God designed to close the work just in proportion as His people felt the importance and sacredness of the work and the zeal with which they took hold of it.”
Many scholars would be quick to point out that Haskell must have got it wrong because there was no General Conference Bulletin published in 1892. Although he did get his source wrong, it is hard to believe that someone as prominent in the Church as Haskell would have fabricated a lie and attributed to Ellen G. White something she never said or wrote. This one thing we do know from the quotes we have already looked at, Ellen G. White certainly believed that by 1896, God’s people could have been in the Promised Land if they had been faithful.
Finally, by 1901, Ellen G. White wrote the following: “We may have to remain here in this world because of insubordination many more years, as did the children of Israel; but for Christ’s sake, His people should not add sin to sin by charging God with the consequence of their own wrong course of action.--Letter 184, 1901.”
{Snippet of chapter 8 of “Prophetic Parallels” by Adrian Welsh on PropheticParallels}Applying the Rosetta Stone
We all know that 1888 was a very special year in Adventist history.
Ellen G. White said that in that year, the light of the fourth angel began to shine.
And if it had been accepted by the people, Jesus would have returned in 1890.
So, the years 1888, 1889 and 1890 form a very special triplet of years… those years that bear the CODE of the coming of Christ.
As she said, the feasts have to be fulfilled in type and TIME at the second coming.
And the only conclusion of our study so far can be that the same codes that we find in the years 1888, 1889, and 1890 have to repeat in the last three years of earth’s history!
Picking the Rosetta Stone
Let us first look at the code that we find at the important years 1888, 1889, 1890:
The summary code is:
N3N1
T1
N1T2
Searching for the Second Coming
When will we have a second chance to go to heaven?
If we search the whole HSL we do not find any repetition of the code of 1888, 1889, 1890 UNTIL…
Orion Confirmed Again!
The Heavenly Sanctuary (Orion) is reflected in the earthly sanctuary (feast days), which shows exactly the same sequence of three (and a half) years ending in autumn 2015. This is the time of the Loud Cry from spring 2013 to autumn 2015, as shown here.
The Date of the Second Coming
When I published the Orion study in January 2010, I already knew that I would eventually find the exact date of the Second Coming with the help of the Holy Spirit.
I do not emphasize the date and therefore I will give it to you right now. Time setting is not my business; there is other information in Orion and the HSL, that is of MUCH more importance for the Loud Cry than just the date of the Second Coming.
We found the time of the Loud Cry in the HSL. It will end in autumn 2015. By that time every case will be decided in the Judgment of the Living, and Jesus will leave the Most Holy Place and sit on the Cloud.
The Investigative Judgment that had started on the Day of Atonement in 1844 will be finished when the Judgment of the Living ends, also on a Day of Atonement.
And there are two possible dates for the Day of Atonement in 2015…
Jesus ends the Judgment on a HIGH SABBATH
For the end of the Judgment in 2015, we have only two possible dates:
Friday, September 25, 2015 or
Saturday, October 24, 2015 which is a HIGH SABBATH
It is most likely that the Great Judge Jesus will end the Judgment on the High Sabbath, October 24, 2015.
Since everything will be as it was in the days of Noah, the door of mercy will be imperceptibly closed 7 days before, on Sunday, October 18, 2015, and the world will not know it.
On the Day of Atonement, October 24, 2015, Jesus will leave the Most Holy Place, take off His priestly robes and put on His royal attire to sit on the cloud.
On Sunday, October 25, 2015, the plagues will start to fall, although the 372 days until the return of Jesus that we know from the study of the Shadows of the Sacrifices will have begun one week earlier on October 18.
Jesus Comes Back on the LAST GREAT DAY
Thus, mathematically, the year of the plagues will last exactly until the next 24th of October in 2016. Is this any special day?
The 144,000 will testify for the Father without an Intercessor for one year. This time is symbolized in the feasts by the Feast of Tabernacles.
The day after the Feast of Tabernacles, the ceremonial Sabbath of the prayer for the latter rain (Shemini Atzeret), is also called the Last Great Day, because with it the entire annual feast period ends.
And thus, it also symbolizes the end of the last journey of God’s people.
In 2016, it falls on the 24th of October, exactly 365 days after Jesus will have sat on the cloud!
On that Last Great Day of October 24, 2016, the people of God will finally be freed by their Lord when He returns.
And… the Jewish day starts the evening before. It so happens that October 23 is also the very date when Hiram Edson found the truth about the Heavenly Sanctuary some 172 years before the Second Coming.
The Heavenly Jubilee of one the thousand years begins in 2016 on the Last Great Day, after the close of the sabbatical year.
There’s more in the HIGH SABBATHS
As with Orion, God’s purpose in giving us a time prophecy is not just to know the time or to satisfy our curiosity.
The time prophecy is given BEFORE the Loud Cry and is part of the light of the Fourth Angel that will lighten the whole earth with his GLORY:
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. (Revelation 18:1)
The Loud Cry of the Third Angel will get its strength from this time prophecy of the Fourth Angel:
I saw angels hurrying to and fro in heaven, descending to the earth, and again ascending to heaven, preparing for the fulfillment of some important event. Then I saw another mighty angel commissioned to descend to the earth, to unite his voice with the third angel, and give power and force to his message. Great power and glory were imparted to the angel, and as he descended, the earth was lightened with his glory. {EW 277.1}
The Light of the Fourth Angel
The light which attended this angel penetrated everywhere, as he cried mightily, with a strong voice, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.” The message of the fall of Babylon, as given by the second angel, is repeated, with the additional mention of the corruptions which have been entering the churches since 1844. The work of this angel comes in at the right time to join in the last great work of the third angel’s message as it swells to a loud cry. And the people of God are thus prepared to stand in the hour of temptation, which they are soon to meet. I saw a great light resting upon them, and they united to fearlessly proclaim the third angel’s message. {EW 277.1}
Joining Like the Midnight Cry
Angels were sent to aid the mighty angel from heaven, and I heard voices which seemed to sound everywhere, “Come out of her, My people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.” This message seemed to be an addition to the third message, joining it as the midnight cry joined the second angel’s message in 1844. The glory of God rested upon the patient, waiting saints, and they fearlessly gave the last solemn warning, proclaiming the fall of Babylon and calling upon God’s people to come out of her that they might escape her fearful doom. {EW 277.2}
Calling a People Out!
To call out a people from Babylon one needs to know two things:
1. What are the characteristics of Babylon?
But even more importantly, we need to know…
2. Where shall we go after having left?
Who has the truth? What are the real pillars of faith? Who has the candlestick of Revelation 2:5?
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
The Pillars of Adventist Faith
The characteristics of Babylon, the real pillars of Adventist faith and the additional mention of the corruptions which have been entering the churches since 1844 [especially the Adventist Church itself] have already been the main theme of Orion!
And this theme is repeated in the HSL in a surprising manner.
Digging deeper with the Rosetta Stone of Ellen G. White, we find other triplets of years that start with the same code sequence…
The Triplets of the HSL
We can find 6 other triplets that have the same beginning (N3N1, T1) as the Rosetta Stone triplet:
The Start-Triplet of the HSL
And there is ONE special triplet that ENDS with the same two code lines as the Rosetta Stone triplet (T1, N1T2):
This is the Start-Triplet of the First Angel’s Message, which was given by William Miller in 1841 as Ellen G. White told us:
We understand the present feebleness and smallness of the work. We have had an experience. In doing the work God has given us, we may go trustingly forward, assured that He will be our efficiency. He will be with us in 1906, as He was with us in 1841, 1842, 1843, and 1844. Oh, what wonderful evidences we had then of the presence of God with us. In the earlier stages of our work, we had many difficulties to meet, and we gained many victories. {LLM 156.4}
The Decoded HSL
8 year-triplets form 7 time-ranges of 24 years in average.
The beginning triplet is slightly different than the others and coincides with the Rosetta stone in the last two codes.
The other triplets coincide with the Rosetta Stone triplet in the first two codes.
The ninth triplet directly follows the 8th and marks the end of the Judgment as the repetition of the Rosetta Stone triplet in 2013, 2014 and 2015.
The Seven Thunders
As predicted by Ellen G. White, the Seven Thunders are those events that unfolded since 1841:
The special light given to John which was expressed in the seven thunders was a delineation of events which would transpire under the first and second angels’ messages. It was not best for the people to know these things, for their faith must necessarily be tested. In the order of God most wonderful and advanced truths would be proclaimed. The first and second angels’ messages were to be proclaimed, but no further light was to be revealed before these messages had done their specific work. This is represented by the angel standing with one foot on the sea, proclaiming with a most solemn oath that time should be no longer. {7BC 971.6}
She spoke about the seven time periods mentioned but not written by John because they would have to be deciphered right before the end of time… right before the oath of Jesus in Revelation 10 that “there would be time no more” would cease… in 2012 (see The Power of the Father).
The Seven Times of Purification
Seven times have passed since 1841 during which the members of SDA Church have been purified and sifted. But the shaking took place in 2010, 2011 and 2012 as a result of the Orion message.
The HSL was given only to those who accepted the Orion message which was the pre-requisite for further studies.
Psalm 12:6 says:
The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
In like manner the Church of God was purified seven times before a remnant of the remnant was ready to testify for the Father in the last day events, being faithful to all the ordinances and Commandments of God and giving the Loud Cry.
The Great Periods of Time
If we compare the triplets, we see that some correspond 100% with others in their codes.
They seem to mark even greater periods of time within the investigative judgment than just the seven periods of 24 years in average. They are:
1861,1862,1863 corresponds with 2010,2011,2012 and marks a period of 151 years
1915,1916,1917 corresponds with 1986,1987,1988 and marks a period of 73 years
We will have to investigate what each triplet means and also what these great periods of time could mean.
The Start Triplet
The start triplet of the HSL and the first of the seven thunders was the Midnight Cry of William Miller that joined the second angel Samuel Snow in 1843.
It is the real beginning of our Adventist history and was only mentioned indirectly in Orion. The starting year of the Orion clock is 1844 because it only shows the Judgment time.
William Miller correctly deciphered the 2300 evenings and mornings and the seventy weeks prophecy which was confirmed once again by John Scotram in the Gethsemane study.
Remember that the start triplet is different than all other triplets and must be something very special. We will come back to this later.
The year 1844 directly follows this very important triplet, and it is an Orion year!
The Founding Years
The second triplet of the HSL shows the founding years of SDA Church when the pioneers gave the Church its organizational structure:
On the official General Conference site you can read in the book Organized for Mission about those years in Chapter II. Church Organization in 1861/1863.
The official foundation took place in those years and the Church received its official name “Seventh-day Adventist Church” in those years.
As we come further in the understanding of the HSL structure, we will see what the corresponding triplet 2010,2011,2012 means.
The Refused Light of the Fourth Angel
The terrible disaster of the 1888 General Conference Session was explained in the Orion articles and there is a download link to a whole book that clearly shows what happened during those years when the Church went the wrong way: A Warning and its Reception.
Today’s Church is denying that it refused the light of the Fourth Angel, but the truth speaks differently. Justification by Faith is only part of the light of the Fourth Angel, but there is much more. That is why Ellen G. White said that in 1888 we only saw the BEGINNING of the light of the Fourth Angel.
When we come to the triplet of 1935, we will learn about the second part of the light of the Fourth Angel.
Jesuits infiltrate the SDA Church
What started in 1888 and was mentioned in many quotes of Ellen G. White as a terrible disaster for the Church, was kept in check by she herself until her death in 1915.
In the years 1915, 1916 and 1917, Church appointed new leaders that were no longer controlled by the messenger of God.
Compromise crept in, and the Church elected their own leaders for whose doctrines they had itching ears.
Some sources tell us that it was in these years that Jesuits started to infiltrate the SDA Church.
The corresponding triplet of 1986 will tell us how this story ends!
One year before the beginning of this 1915 triplet, we already saw in Orion how some Jesuit Church leaders reacted in Europe at the beginning of WWI in 1914.
M.L. Andreasen and the Last Generation
But there have also been great men in the Church like M.L. Andreasen who discovered the second part of the Light of the Fourth Angel in 1935/36 and published his book “The Sanctuary Service” in 1937.
Chapter 21 of this outstanding book reveals the Last Generation Theology which is the second part of the light of the Fourth Angel. Read the chapter here to understand what the duty for each one of the 144,000 is in these very last days!
This is not the last time that Andreasen is mentioned in the HSL by God. He gave great positive impulses to the direction of the church ship but was suppressed by the Jesuit leadership of the Church like all who advocate the truth.
The year 1936 in the middle of the triplet is an Orion year and marks a time of great testing for the Church, especially in Europe. Note how Orion and HSL correspond!
M.L. Andreasen and QOD
M.L. Andreasen was THE man fighting QOD (Questions of Doctrine) as introduced after the text book changes began in 1949 as marked in Orion, and later published in 1957.
This heroic fight against a corrupt and degenerated leadership of SDA Church ended in the years 1959, 1960 and 1961 when Andreasen lost “temporarily” his credentials as a retired minister and died from a broken heart.
His credentials were restored posthumously in 1962, but knowing that the dead know not anything, this does not diminish the guilt of Adventist Church for not having heard the warnings of this outstanding leader.
Please read M.L. Andreasen’s biography on SDA-NET.
The Orion years 1949/1950 and the HSL triplet 1959, 1960, 1961 exactly mark the infamous decade of the 1950s mentioned frequently in Adventist history as the terrible years of change through QOD.
The Jesuit Takeover
What had started in 1915, 1916, 1917 after the death of Ellen G. White concluded in 1986, 1987 and 1988 by the total takeover of the Jesuits and the marriage of SDA Church with the papacy in the ecumenical movement.
The SDA Church laid in one bed with the whore of Babylon and started to fornicate publicly.
Both Orion and HSL mark the year 1986 as the beginning of the end of SDA Church and the Bible tells us in Revelation 2:23 that “the children of those who fornicated with Jezabel will be killed with death; and all the churches shall know that Jesus is He who searcheth the reins and hearts: and He will give unto every one of you according to his works.”
The children will have been punished at the end of the next generation triplet… 2010, 2011, 2012! And Orion once more corresponds with the HSL.
The 4th Angel Comes Down from Heaven
Orion was given in 2010 and so was the HSL for those who had already accepted the Orion. Those blessed by the Holy Spirit entered the “Restaurant,” a private study forum where we retreated since August 2011 to have a quiet place to study.
In October 2011, the third and last part of the light of the Fourth Angel was given to John Scotram and his study group in the forum. This event was marked by a dream of John on the 22nd of October 2011, the exact anniversary of the beginning of the Investigative Judgment.
This light was published under the title Our High Calling. It is a supplement to the Justification by Faith of Waggoner and Jones and the Last Generation Theology of M.L. Andreasen.
The triplet 2010, 2011, 2012 marks the end of the SDA Church as the corresponding triplet to 1861, 1862 and 1863 when the Seventh-day Adventist name, given by God, was introduced.
The church of Christ will go through till the end (as Ellen G. White said) but the apostate SDA Organization will find its end in spring 2013.
The Crown of the Woman
In the last triplet of earth’s history, the true remnant church, the “Movement of the High Sabbath Adventists” will give the Loud Cry and finish the Great Commission of Jesus. Many will be taught to give their testimony for the Father by giving their lives as martyrs.
Between the 18th of October 2015 and the 24th of October 2016 (372 days), the 144,000 will stand without an Intercessor before God and the universe showing that Jesus will find faith when He returns while the plagues fall onto the earth.
On sunset of the 23rd of October 2016, the small black cloud that has been visible for 7 long days will become the Great White Cloud of the Second Coming and those who are sleeping in Jesus will awake like those who died under the Third Angel’s Message will have 7 days earlier.
This time, we, the High Sabbath Adventists, will not allow ourselves to miss our second chance to go to heaven. Many of us have made our vows to testify for the Father in the “Restaurant,” which was closed to those who did not accept the Orion message in time.
The Genetic Structure of the HSL 
Some may have already recognized the similarity between the HSL and the structure of genes, which are the base of every life form on earth (and perhaps the whole universe).
The double helix of the DNA is formed by two strands like a rope ladder. The year column and code column resemble those strands.
The rungs of the rope ladder of the DNA are formed by base PAIRS and only corresponding pairs can form a rung. This is reflected in the HSL by the spring and autumn pairs, and if you compare the code rungs you will see that not every possible combination occurs. Only certain combinations occur, just like in nature.
The genetic code is made up of “words”. It always takes three base pairs to form a word, which is called a “codon”. Now we get to the point: Our year triplets are those codons that are the words of the HSL in which the information is stored. The number three in the DNA and in the HSL suggests that all three Persons of the Godhead are involved in the plan of salvation for the living creatures of the universe.
Every gene in the DNA that codes a special characteristic of the being begins with a start codon (triplet) that is different from all others. So, it is in the HSL!
Gene segments are separated from each other by stop codons, thus forming code ranges. The majority of stop codons are equal in their first two base pairs, and so it is in the HSL.
We discovered several stop codons in the HSL--the year triplets after the starting triplet. Some of them form logical units marking beginning and end of the gene segment exactly as in nature.
In genetic laboratories, if you want to make 100% sure that a sequence should end, and there is no chance that by a reading error the reading of the sequence would go on, they add at the end of a gene a double stop codon. That means that one stop codon follows the other. This is how the HSL ends! After a double stop it is sure that THE END HAS BEEN REACHED. The time has ceased, the plan of salvation will have been completed.
If you want to dig deeper into this, you can do so on TeachingHearts and in the article series The Gene of Life.
The Character of the 144,000
Jesus said: “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live” (John 11:25)
It makes sense that our God, who IS THE LIFE, expresses Himself in form of the basic structure He created for the life of all planets… the DNA.
Finally, we have discovered what the feast days, depending on the sun (vernal equinox) and the moon (beginning of the months), really mean. Unlocking the structure of the feast days with the HIGH SABBATHS (when ceremonial Sabbaths fall upon Seventh-day Sabbaths) revealed the “genetic” structure of one of those who will be able to stand without intercession in the great time of trouble.
First of all, they will have accepted the first and second angel’s message (1841, 1842, 1843).
They will have understood that the Church that had great light was the Seventh-day Adventist Church founded in 1861, 1862, 1863.
They are those who will have received, accepted and understood the threefold light of the Fourth Angel given in 1888, 1889, 1890 (first part = Justification by Faith) and 1935, 1936, 1937 (second part = the Last Generation Theology) and will very soon (2010, 2011, 2012) understand what the consequences for the universe and God will be if they fail to accomplish their mission (third part).
They will NOT have followed QOD (1959, 1960, 1961) and will not have adopted the Jesuit teachings about the unfallen nature of Christ, and they will have sighed and cried for all the abominations committed by the SDA Church for joining the ecumenical movement (1986, 1987, 1988).
They will have accepted the Orion Message and the HSL and they will therefore have received the Latter Rain to give the Loud Cry with these marvelous messages of hope for the martyrs.
The Sunday Law
Revelation 13:14 says that the people will make an image to the beast! “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.”
The day when fire comes from heaven will mark the beginning of that process: “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men” (Revelation 13:13)
After this cataclysm made by men, the paradigm of all human beings on earth will change and the Great Conflict will have entered into the last rapid moments that have been mentioned by Ellen G. White.
May God be with you! Keep your hearts clean and repent of all sins before that day. Heeding all warnings that have been given to the Adventists you will have a good chance to survive the event and reach eternal life.
The judgments will start at the Adventist Church. God has withdrawn from His sanctuary. Read and understand Ezekiel Chapter 9!
Go out of the towns. Thousands will be destroyed. Do not stay at coastal areas… go to the mountains into higher ground! Tsunamis will destroy mainly coastal areas. Avoid the nearness to volcanoes!
After all this… the Sunday Law will have begun because almost everybody will believe that the judgments of God have begun. But indeed, Satan will have been the originator of the death of many believing and unbelieving human beings.
KEEP THE SABBATH OF THE 7th DAY WHATEVER IT COSTS (AND EVEN IF IT COSTS YOUR LIFE!)
The Authority of the Father
We published this study on April 1, 2012, because it was the antitypical day when Jesus revealed His real position as King of His people at his glorious entry in Jerusalem. And it was again a first day of the week.
He separated Himself as the true Passover lamb, invoking the wrath of the Church leaders against him. He knew that they would kill Him soon afterwards.
Also, we know that the SDA Church leaders and many more will be enraged when they read this irrefutable confirmation of the Orion study through the HSL:
And at the commencement of the time of trouble, we were filled with the Holy Ghost as we went forth and proclaimed the Sabbath more fully. This enraged the churches and nominal Adventists, as they could not refute the Sabbath truth. And at this time God’s chosen all saw clearly that we had the truth, and they came out and endured the persecution with us. I saw the sword, famine, pestilence, and great confusion in the land. The wicked thought that we had brought the judgments upon them, and they rose up and took counsel to rid the earth of us, thinking that then the evil would be stayed. {EW 33.2}
The HSL reveals the end of the SDA Organization as God’s Church for 2012/2013. This part of SDA Church that had been unfaithful will separate itself from the true ones. The leaders that the SDA Church now has, like Ted Wilson and the 25 “men in black,” will lead their flock to perdition and receive the plagues with them.
The true remnant church of God is not an organization, but they are Adventists from the heart and have the correct mindset based on the pillars of faith shown by Orion and HSL.
Do not any longer follow the wolves in sheep’s clothing like Dwight Nelson who advocates Islam in the Adventist Church. And to you wolves… GO WHERE YOUR BOSS IS! YOUR TIME IS OVER! WE DO NOT NEED YOUR SERVICES ANY LONGER!
The Will Ross Statement
The Wind Storm
A statement by E.G. White about the year 1908:
Bro. Will Ross, now deceased, was a personal friend of mine for about 45 years. In our church fellowship we very often spent Sabbath afternoons discussing his experience in the message, and his conversations with Mrs. Ellen G. White.
About 1908, while living in Loma Linda near Sister White, he frequently accompanied her in her walks, and would discuss the message and future events. On one of these occasions, while waiting at the railroad depot, in company with Sister McInterfer and Elder D. E. Robinson, her granddaughter’s husband, Sister White related to the three of them about the storm of persecution that was to come upon Seventh-day Adventists. Brother Will related it to me as follows:
“Sister White told us as we three stood there on the depot platform, that a terrible storm of persecution was coming like a windstorm that blew down every standing object. There was not a Seventh-day Adventist to be seen. They, like the disciples, forsook Christ and fled. All who had sought positions were never seen again. …
“After the storm there was a calm, then the Adventists arose like a great flock of sheep, but there were no shepherds. They all waited in earnest prayer for help and wisdom, and the Lord answered by helping them to choose leaders from among them who had never sought positions before. They prayed earnestly for the Holy Spirit which was poured out upon them making them fully ready for service. They then went forth ‘fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners,’ to give this message to the world. “I was astonished, and asked if that applied to Loma Linda, as we were looking in that direction. Sister White replied to my question by stating that it applied to the entire denominational world. It so stunned me that I did not ask any more questions.” --- Will Ross, Boulder, Colorado.
May God give you all wisdom to see very soon where the real leaders of the people of God are hidden. Those are “fair as the moon and clear as the sun”, those both luminaries that have been created by God to control the times and the seasons (Genesis 1:14), the feasts and the HIGH SABBATH LIST of our Adventist history that shows the genetic code of each and every one who will belong to the 144,000. May God give you the Latter Rain that you may be able to “proclaim the Sabbath more fully” when the time of trouble will have begun. Remember then the High Sabbath List that was created by God 3500 years ago to give hope to the hopeless.
