2 PENTECOSTAL REVIVALS 

NOT JUST ONE!

 

PREDICTED 60 AND 100 YEARS EARLIER BY ELLEN HARMON
 

AFTER THE NEW ESSENES,

THE PENTECOSTALS TWICE,

NOT JUST ONCE!

 "While I was praying at the family altar, the Holy Ghost fell upon me, and I seemed to be rising higher and higher, far above the dark world.”

The Essenes were a separatist group in 1st century Judaism that sold their “worldly goods” and lived holy lives in monasteries, such as the now well-known monastery at Qumran, by the Dead Sea.

  As Ellen Harmon goes on to describe what she saw, she describes a "path" identical to how the Essenes decribed their "WAY" (their doctrines, their teachings, their customs) -- Ellen saw her Adventist associates on this path or "WAY" on their way to a city at the end of this path, which Ellen thought was the New Jerusalem in Heaven, but that I am suggesting is Qumran pictured above, the "New Jerusalem of the Essenes.

      After and indeterminate period of time in Ellen's first vision, some of  her associates "stumbled", and fell off the path, but of those that remained, Ellen starts using Pentecostal expressions and descriptions instead of the Essene expressions she started out with.

      Now, in the 21st century, some Seventh-day Adventists are questioning the relevance of their early prophetess Ellen G. White.   Her books sit on thousands, perhaps millions of book-shelves all over the world gathering dust.
Only those parts of those books promoting Evangelical Christianity are being excerpted and sold paperback with brilliantly colored new covers.  Jesus has failed to return in the manner and at the time she expected him to do so.    And yet she talked to him and to her other angel repeatedly.  The one she called “my young man”.  Or “the angel”.

 

     Now Doctor Holt is discovering that once we notice the Essene language of Sister White’s earliest visions, the mist of misunderstanding clears, and we can see her prophecies clearly.    And the Essene theology she was called upon to present to the modern world.

     "If they kept their eyes fixed on Jesus, who was just before them, leading them to the city (to Qumran with its Essene doctrines, teachings, and customs) they were safe.  But soon some grew weary, and said the city was a great way off, and they expected to have entered it before.  

      Then Jesus would encourage them by raising His glorious right arm (raising one's arm or arms during a religious meeting is a Pentecostal custom, not an Adventist custom), and from His arm came a light which waved over the Advent band, and they shouted, 'Alleluja!'

     This one coded sentence in Ellen's description of her first vision in December 1844 forecast both the 'Health Reform' message among Adventists -- and the Pentecostal Revival in America!  The latter an event that did not occur until more than 50 years after Ellen had this vision!

The REVIVAL that started in an old mission building on AZUZA street in San Francisco has now been listed among the top 100 events of the 20th century on a web site quoting LIFE magazine.   It led to the formation of Pentecostal churches world-wide!

 

of the WELSH REVIVAL that preceded the now famous AZUZA STREET revival.

Another web site, this one British, reminds us that before there was anything like this happening in California, there was already such a REVIVAL in Wales.   The bearded newspaper reporter seen here on the left reported it, and it soon had world-wide attention.     Whole congregations were weeping, falling down in trances, and speaking in “other tongues”.
The people these things were happening to were in Churches, not in bars or pubs.  They were praying to Jesus, not the “Devil”.   And they were certainly not engaging in any “Satanic Rituals”.   And they were quoting heavily scriptural texts referring to similar events connected with the 12 apostles’ ministry right after Christ’s death and resurrection.

    After her one sentence description of the early 1900s Pentecostal Revival (destined to continue for the entire 20th century) Ellen Harmon returned immediately to her listeners, destined to be "Latter Day Essenes"

“Others rashly denied the [ ESSENE] LIGHT  behind them and said it was not [ JESUS as God, part of the ‘Trinity’] that had led them out [ away from Orthodox theology] so far.   The [ ESSENE] LIGHT  behind them went out , [ no more ‘Spirit of Prophecy’ ] leaving their feet in perfect DARKNESS, and they STUMBLED  [ into standard Christian belief in ‘Cheap Grace’] and lost sight of the MARK [of the Beast, Catholic Theology, that was now Adventist Theology ] and of the [ human Essene ] Jesus, and fell off the path down into the dark and wicked [ nominal Christian] world below.”

A short, but amazingly accurate picture of what happened in Adventist theology between 1888 and the 1950s, at which time Adventists had become orthodox Trinitarians to avoid the stigma of being called a "cult".

KEY CONCEPT: NONE OF THE ESSENES, EVEN THE GNOSTIC ESSENES WERE EVER "TRINITARIANS" IN THE SENSE DECIDED ON BY THE CHRISTIAN BISHOPS AT NICAEA -- ONE CAN ONLY SURMISE THAT JESUS CHRIST WAS DISAPPOINTED THAT THOSE PEOPLE HE TAUGHT THROUGH ELLEN'S VISIONS THAT HE WAS A (TOTALLY HUMAN) HIGH PRIEST -- BACK-SLID AFTER A MERE 44 YEARS! AND BY 100 YEARS LATER WERE WHAT ELLEN CALLED NOMINAL CHRISTIANS (OR EVEN MORE COLORFUL -- "DAUGHTERS OF THE WHORE OF BABYLON!")

HOWEVER, WE HAVE NOT YET REACHED THE END OF ELLEN HARMON's FIRST VISION -- SEVERAL THINGS HAPPEN, AND THEN SHE MENTIONS THE "HOLY GHOST" BY NAME -- USING "PESHER" TECHNIQUE, THIS MEANS A REAPPEARANCE OF THIS EARLIER REVIVAL!

EARLY WRITINGS page 15

     "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."

     These 2 sentences are what separates the two Pentecostal Revivals, and by understanding what they mean, I, Bob Holt, become the prophetic equivalent of the "living 144,000 saints" -- the one who "knew and understood the voice" (although I must admit that I didn't when God "spoke" on August 18, 1945.)  The "voice" was the sound of two atomic bombs being exploded at Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan.  "like many waters" has three meanings 1)" voice of Lord Shiva" (through whose hair traditionally in India flows the "many waters of the Ganges River") and 2) "the Pacific ocean" ("many waters" of our largest ocean separating us in the United States from these two explosions in Japan) and 3) "Hydrogen" bombs, and "Heavy Water" (these are two of a number of terms associated at that time with these atomic bombs).

    "When God (Lord Shiva -- the Indian God with the Ganges flowing through His hair) spoke the time (Aug. 6, 1945, 8:16 AM), He poured out upon us (American Pentecostals NOT SDAs), the Holy Ghost, and our faces began to light up and shine with the glory of God, (two meanings 1) In India, Shiva devotees mark their foreheads with the "third eye" mark, showing their ability to "see" spiritually, and "feel" rapture, and 2) in the USA, this represents the "Holiness Movement and Churches", as Moses' did when he came down from Mount Sinia." (The mention of Moses here adds another dimension to the meaning.  Moses when he came down from the mountain led ancient Israel to the promised land.  The explosion of the Atomic bombs allowed modern Israel to return to their "promised land" after May 14-15, 1948.)   (The new Pentecostal revival began with the return of Israel to the Holy Land, and lasted, symbolically at least, until 1988 and later (40+ years).
