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

Who Are The 144,000?

The subject is, “Who are the 144,000?” First mention of this number in the Bible is in Rev. 7:4: “And I heard the number of them which were Sealed: And there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel(Spiritual Israel SDA, following the 4 Angels' Message).” Rev. 7:2. “And I saw another angel ascending from the East, having the Seal of the Living GOD: And He cried with a loud voice to the Four angels(I & II William Miller; III E.G.White & IV V.T.Houteff) to whom it was given to hurt the Earth and the Sea.” Note that this Angel is Ascending and not Descending. In contrast to this, Rev. 18:1 says, “And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power, and the earth was lightened with his glory(IV V.T.Houteff).” This Mighty Angel is not ascending, but descending. nor coming, but “Come Down.” If the Angel made the trip from Heaven to Earth in less than 15 minutes(10 years 6 months for human travel to Heaven, for GOD in 15 minutes can send His Angels down to Earth to deliver answers of Prayer) in answer to prayer (Dan. 9:4-23), while it takes light millions of years to travel part of the distance, we can easily understand why the expression “but come” is used, meaning suddenly appearing without warning. This Angel is the Loud Cry Angel, an Addition to the Third Angel and the Message of the Fall of Babylon as given by the Second Angel is Repeated(William Miller), as foretold in the 18th chapter of Revelation. The people of GOD are thus prepared to stand in the hour of temptation, which they are soon to meet. {SR1: 20.1}

Early Writings, page 277: “Then I saw another Mighty Angel(V.T.Houteff) Commissioned to Descend to the Earth, to unite his(V.T.Houteff) voice with the Third Angel(E.G.White), and give Power and Force to his(V.T.Houteff) Message. Great Power and Glory were imparted to the Angel, and as he descended, the Earth was Lightened with his(V.T.Houteff) Glory. The Light which attended this Angel(V.T.Houteff) penetrated everywhere, as he(V.T.Houteff) Cried Mightily, with a Strong Voice, ‘Babylon(outside the Sabbath) 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(William Miller 1844), is repeated, with the additional mention of the corruptions which have been entering the churches since 1844. The work of this Angel(V.T.Houteff), comes in at the Right Time to Join in the Last Great Work of the Third Angel’s(E.G.White) 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 4th Angel’s(V.T.Houteff) Message…This message seemed to be an addition to the Third Message(E.G.White), joining it as the Midnight Cry joined the Second Angel’s(William Miller) Message in 1844.” {SR1: 21.1} Thanks my LORD JESUS & Thanks E.G.White the 3^rd massage of 3^rd Angel Rev.14:9 & V.T.Houteff the 4^th massage of 4^th Angel Rev.18:1 !
