“Meaning Of Seven Years Of Plenty And 7 Years Of Famine Found Only One Way”

The symbol can represent only one thing, and that is the world’s history in two great divisions of time; namely B.C. and A.D. with the cross (Christ), the dividing line. “For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.” It is for this reason Jesus made the statement for we have no other thus far. The years of plenty is B.C. in which time God gave plenty to supply the world’s need for the years of famine (New Testament time, A.D.). As Joseph gathered the corn into storehouses by his servants,–the Egyptians, just so Christ gathered the Word of God (spiritual food) in the Bible (the storehouse) by His servants, the prophets. “God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds.” Heb. 1:1, 2. Had it not been for this purpose then we ask, what could it have been for? God who was responsible for the event did it not to bring hardships to His subjects, or to starve the world, as the famine was not in Egypt only, for we read, “And the famine was over all the face of the earth.” Gen. 41:56. Had this not been the symbol, why would God have brought the famine over all the earth? Some people may have difficulty in being convinced, and others can never be convinced, but the harmony of the lesson can hardly be questioned. {SR1: 17.4}

If the seven years of plenty and the seven years of famine are not a type of the world’s history; Joseph’s immense storehouses not a type of the Bible; the corn gathered in the seven years of plenty not a type of the Word in the Bible; the feeding of the world not a type of the New Testament time consuming the Scriptures gathered in the Old Testament time; then we ask, Where are the types for all these events? Has not God given the gospel in types as well as in prophecy? “Christ was the foundation of the Jewish economy. The whole system of types and symbols was compacted prophecy of the gospel, a presentation in which were bound up the promises of redemption.” Acts of the Apostles, page 14. If the seven years of plenty and the seven years of famine did not represent the world’s history, the coincidents as well shall endeavor to bring forth could hardly have been possible by an accident. Jesus said, “Gather up the crumbs that there be no waste.” It was His Word that multiplied the loaves and fishes; these crumbs represent the very words He spoke. {SR1: 18.1} Thanks my LORD JESUS & Thanks E.G.White the 3^rd massage of 3^rd Angel Revelation 14:9 & V.T.Houteff the 4^th massage of 4^th Angel Revelation 18:1 !
