Magician and Messiah Part 13

The Magician & The Messiah — Part 13 Rev. John Shane Vaughn — First Harvest Ministries International ________________ 1 The history of the church — so the bottom line is this: there are two churches in the world, the real and the false; it is that simple. 2 There hath always been the twin spirits ever since Cain and Abel, Ishmael and Isaac, Yeshua and Judas, on and on and on. 3 And now the Antichrist and the Messiah, the true church versus the false church — that hath never ever ever changed, and it is still true today. 4 So what we have been trying to do over the last twelve, thirteen weeks now, is find that true church — not just the one in our day, but to trace it all the way back as far as we can trace it. 5 We wanted to bring it all the way to Yeshua himself, and we did; and we traced the lineage of the true church, and that brought us all the way through France and Italy and all over the nations of the world. 6 We have traveled as we have searched for this; we are tracking the tribes; I should have named this part two of Tracking the Tribes, because we have basically been tracking the tribes. 7 By the way, if thou hast not watched my series — if thou wantest thy life to change forever, like forever — go watch Tracking the Tribes; that is one of our predominant series I have ever taught, and thou needest that in thy repertoire so that thou canst truly study the Bible. 8 I want to explain something to thee; there is a word called ontology, and thou canst not know the Bible — it is impossible to understand the Bible without ontology. 9 Now I am not getting into it tonight — I plan to do an entire class soon on ontology — but until then, know this: thou must get the foundation right or everything else falls apart. 10 And so part of that foundation is the true church of the living God — amen — and so we are going to show thee the journey we have been on and see if we cannot catch thee up to speed. 11 All right, so let us start from the beginning tonight; can everyone see my screen? Thou hast got it? Okay, thank thee. 12 All right, so we followed the true church all the way up to America, and we have gone through the hills and the valleys of the Swiss mountains; we have gone from John the Apostle in the Asian churches until we got to America. 13 The Sabbath day message arrived in America in 1664 with Stephen Mumford; now Stephen Mumford helped establish the very first Sabbath-keeping congregation in 1671. 14 Right after that, the Advent awakening began to happen; now, what is the Advent? It is another word for the coming of Messiah, the second physical coming of our Messiah and our King, our elder brother. 15 And so the Advent movement became very focused on end-time prophecy; that was their primordial mission — preaching the coming kingdom of God on planet earth and the millennial reign, and then timing out when that would happen. 16 Now the Advent Awakening brought into its congregation two people in 1844 — I am sorry, not James and Ellen White, that was later; the first brother and sister — her name was Oakley — and she came into the Advent movement and brought the Sabbath day message. 17 Now after that we begin to find people by the name of Gilbert Cranmer, James and Ellen White; now if thou dost not know who Ellen White is, she is — not the founder, I take that back — she was not the founder of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, but she was what they considered their prophet and a primordial voice of that movement. 18 And then as time goes along, the line continues through the 1800s; and so tonight we are going to pick up with a man by the name of Gilbert Cranmer — that is where we are picking up tonight. 19 Remember — James and Ellen White were Trinitarian; they believed in the Trinity formula of the Holy Catholic Church, so-called; and therefore, even though they had picked up on the Sabbath day message, even though they had picked up on the millennial reign message, they were still Trinitarian. 20 And there was a man that we are going to talk about tonight that thou needest to know all about so that thou canst understand the next move in restoring all truth. 21 We believe that just before the coming of Messiah — someone tell me what thou seest on thy screen; I am having to split my screen right now. 22 I see thy slides on one side and the picture on the other — larger — okay, okay, so — let me stop sharing that, I will start over; let us see if we can — I just want to share the picture; oh, I see, okay, there we go, all right, that will work. 23 Now we are going to pick up tonight with a man by the name of Gilbert Cranmer; I want to give thee a breakdown of this man and the Church of God Seventh Day. 24 Gilbert Cranmer was a man on a mission; let me erase that so it gets off the screen — and that — pastor, it is the same thing, it is split screen — okay, that is fine, but I am having to do that right now because I cannot see my notes and this if I am doing full screen unfortunately, but you all — all you see is slides, correct? Yeah — is that correct? Okay, all right. 25 Gilbert Cranmer — let us pick up with him tonight because this — yes, uh-huh — go ahead — all right — what is it now? Okay, is somebody talking to me? Okay — all right, I am not sure what is going on, I keep hearing a voice. 26 I do not know if thou art trying to speak to me or not; all right, so let us pick up with Gilbert Cranmer because the entire story picks up with him and it is a very important story. 27 Yahweh had led Gilbert Cranmer through many different camps or religions, if thou wilt; he started off as a young boy as a Methodist, and Gilbert Cranmer was born in 1814. 28 And whenever he grew up, he was seventeen years old when he joined the Methodist church, and immediately he was asked to preach; the call of God was predominant on his life and everyone knew it, everyone recognized it. 29 I have often found that men that are born with a mission, a unique mission — it is recognizable from birth, from their youth; Gilbert Cranmer was no different. 30 I was preaching all over America at that age — seventeen years old — and I actually started preaching at fourteen years old, but I was a full-time evangelist at seventeen years old. 31 And so most men that have a unique mission, they do pick up on it early in life, or at least it is recognizable; so it was with Gilbert Cranmer at seventeen years old. 32 They asked him to preach at the Methodist church, and that was going to be the trajectory of his entire life; but within two years after preaching in the Methodist church for the very first time, Gilbert Cranmer had to leave the Methodist church. 33 Would anybody like to tell me why he left? Doth anybody remember why he left? The Trinity — the Trinity doctrine. 34 He was studying his Bible and no one could prove the Trinity to this seventeen-year-old — or by this time nineteen-year-old — boy; and so he left the Methodist church over the Trinity. 35 Because just like thee and me that are part of this ministry, he came to know that the father alone is the creator Yahweh, and that the son is the son. 36 And so this was a truth, and this is important because this is going to direct Cranmer and guide him through all the different camps that he is going to walk through. 37 He is going to walk through the Millerite camp, the Seventh-day Adventist camp, but there is something inside of him — the anti-Trinity stand — that is going to protect him from all of those camps. 38 And that is why many of thee watching me tonight that follow different ministries say, well, they teach the Sabbath day — exactly; but they teach the coming kingdom — exactly; but what is their teaching on the Godhead? 39 And this is what protected Cranmer; if thou wantest to find out if thou art walking in the church of truth, it will always come back to their understanding of who Yeshua is — that is foundational, it is primordial. 40 If they ever tell thee that Yeshua is equal to the father — and that is what every one of them believe, everyone believeth that Yeshua is co-eternal, co-existent, and co-equal — when thou hearest that word, thou hast landed in a Roman Catholic church that called thee. 41 Thou art in a transgender church — it is born as a Catholic but dressed up like a Protestant; all right? So always remember that thou art going to a church, they call themselves Protestant, but they carry Catholicism, they carry Catholic faith in their creed, in their Nicene Creed. 42 And so this was Cranmer's primordial conviction — the one God and his son Yeshua the Messiah; so at nineteen years old, what doth he do? He packs up and leaveth the Catholic — that was his conviction to the core — not the Catholic, the Methodist church. 43 He could not sit there any longer and hear blasphemy against the father; now I want to make something clear to all of thee that some of thee have forgotten. 44 If thou art ever talking to someone about who Yeshua is and they say, that is blasphemy — thou needest to remind them that from the words of Yeshua himself, that is impossible. 45 Yeshua said thou canst blaspheme the son all thou wantest to; didst thou know he said that? Yeshua said thou canst blaspheme him all day long and it will be forgiven thee. 46 But he said if thou ever blasphemest the Holy Ghost, which is my father in heaven, that will never be forgiven in this age or the age to come. 47 So if someone telleth thee, blasphemy, simply because thou art making the father exalted — it is impossible; they do not know what they are talking about; thou canst not blaspheme Yeshua, it is impossible, thou canst not blaspheme the son — he said it out of his own mouth. 48 And so we need to understand that; and if thou needest scriptures for all of it, it is in one of my books I wrote — do not recall which one at this moment. 49 But so this was Cranmer's conviction that would lead him through his life; and the biggest challenge thou wilt ever find is finding a church that is not Trinitarian, because the vast majority, ninety-five, ninety-six percent, are Trinitarian. 50 And if thou happenest to find one that is not Trinitarian, then they are even worse — they are called Modalist or Oneness, which is the same thing but in a different way; to find who Yeshua is is one of the hardest things thou wilt ever find in a church. 51 And so this was Cranmer's mission — to follow after that truth; now Cranmer found a group of people to begin fellowshipping with. 52 And the name of that little group of people when he left the Methodist church — there was no other church he could go to in that day, they were all Trinitarian; we are talking about the 1800s here; there were no churches that were not Trinitarian in those days. 53 But he did find a group of people called the Christian Connection — that was the name of this scattered group of people. 54 Now, what Cranmer wrote about these people is so interesting to me; he said that they were loosely connected all over the nation, they were called the Christian Connection. 55 And I just thought it was interesting tonight that was their version of a Zoom meeting — the Christian Connection; thou knowest, they were just connected, and they connected loosely. 56 And so he joined a Zoom meeting of his day of people that believed just like him about who Yeshua was. 57 So when thou art looking for the Petalon, when thou gettest to America, even Mumford did not have this understanding; we find the first written understanding — this is important — of the Petalon, the truth-bearer, on this man by the name of Cranmer, Gilbert Cranmer. 58 And so he carried that truth all of his life; now he found this group called the Christian Connection. 59 And it is there that we find the first — I have studied all about the Christian Connection, I have spent all day studying their leaders — and it is the first written document since the Waldensians that knew the father and the son. 60 It is the first written document we have in America of the people that were Unitarian, that were biblical Unitarians, that understood the father and the son appropriately. 61 So remember when thou art doing thy studies, the Christian Connection is the first group that really had a true understanding, or a restored understanding, of the father and the son. 62 So it was there that Gilbert Cranmer received a license to preach from the Christian Connection, or from his little Zoom friends. 63 And for the next three years, Gilbert Cranmer walked the streets of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Southern Indiana, and Canada as an evangelist. 64 And what was Cranmer preaching? Against the Trinity; he was preaching Unitarian doctrine that thou and I hold dear in this little Israelite connection group that we have here — hallelujah. 65 Now, what I find interesting in that time period — the 1800s — no one, no one anywhere, had the true understanding of the lost tribes message, Israel, the lost tribe. 66 When I show thee the restoration of all things that we are living in today, it blows my mind that — and anyway, let me back up because I am going to get too excited here. 67 So around 1840, Cranmer moves to St. Joseph, Michigan, and it was there that he began working with the Christian Connection. 68 So he hath got the message of one God and his son; but guess what? He doth not have the Adventist message, which is what? The coming kingdom of God; nor doth he have the Sabbath message, but he hath got the Godhead message. 69 All right, and so now, as Cranmer is traveling around preaching, who doth he run into? He runs into the Advent message in 1840. 70 Now that is where he learned Bible prophecy and received a burning expectation of Yeshua's return, and that entered his heart; he became hungry not just for a proper Godhead, but for the kingdom of God that is coming to earth. 71 And then as time went on, in 1850 he picks up another morsel of truth; I call Cranmer Gretel — he remindeth me of Hansel and Gretel; there are breadcrumbs along the trail to bring him back home. 72 And I believe tonight thou art a spiritual Hansel and Gretel; thou got stuck at the wicked witch's house called Babylon, but along the journey there are some breadcrumbs that will bring thee back home. 73 Hallelujah — and I am thankful that all my life I found those breadcrumbs that are bringing us from Rome to home — hallelujah, blessed be the name of Yahweh, glory to God, hallelujah. 74 In 1850, he met a man — now he is already got the Godhead and he hath got the coming kingdom message, right? In 1850, he meeteth a sea captain. 75 I introduced thee to this sea captain last week — Joseph Bates; Joseph Bates was one of the three founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church; Joseph Bates had the Sabbath day message. 76 This is important that thou keep up with all that I am putting together here; Joseph Bates got the Sabbath message. 77 And here cometh Cranmer on a journey picking up bread morsels; he picked up the coming kingdom message before he met Joseph Bates — he picked that up from the Millerites. 78 But when he runs into Bates, Joseph Bates had written a book about the Sabbath day, and it was given to Cranmer. 79 And what doth Cranmer do? He readeth that message on the seventh day of the week, Saturday being the Sabbath, the fourth commandment that had never been changed. 80 That ancient truth had been preserved through Mumford in 1644 and then the Seventh-day Baptist Church; now all of that is entering into Cranmer's faith; he picks up that truth and carries that truth with him on his journey. 81 Now, with all of this understanding, I want thee to look at the graphic one more time and watch this man following the breadcrumbs back home; let us look at the morsels that he picked up. 82 The first morsel was from the Millerites; and someone tell me what morsel that was — anybody? Yeshua, the coming kingdom of Yahweh and the millennial reign. 83 And then he picked that up — the Advent hope is what we call it; when thou seest the word Seventh-day Adventist, Advent meaneth the second coming of Messiah; Yeshua is returning; that message had died in America and even the world. 84 And then as he continueth to march along — is there anybody watching me tonight that can identify with this journey, the Cranmer journey? Anybody here tonight seeing thyself? Hallelujah, hallelujah, sure, hallelujah. 85 Oh, blessed be the name of Yahweh; and as Cranmer is walking through, he runs into Joseph Bates and picks up the seventh-day Sabbath message. 86 And right after that, he meeteth Ellen White and James White; and then as he picks up those truths, he gathereth them together. 87 And there we find something interesting that is about to happen with Gilbert Cranmer; even though he associated — he knew Ellen White, he went to their meetings, he loved their message of the seventh day, he contributed money. 88 There is a receipt that I found in his name from 1857 where he contributed money to the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and especially their printing department. 89 And there is where Cranmer ran into a problem, because he had come to their camp, Ellen White's camp, to pick up the Sabbath day, and he had gone to the Millerites to pick up the Advent hope. 90 But at his core, there was something gnawing at Cranmer; it is that same thing that drove him out of the Methodist camp at nineteen years old, because Ellen White was a Trinitarian. 91 The Millerites were Trinitarians — hallelujah — and even though they had picked up morsels of truth in the restoration movement, it was Cranmer that God chose at seventeen years old to place within his heart what would protect him from the Seventh-day Adventist movement and what would protect him from the Millerite movement. 92 It would protect him and keep him journeying along, keep him saying — wait a minute, even though I have picked up the Sabbath, and even though I have picked up the millennial reign, I cannot stop here. 93 Because even though I love you all, and even though I found some truth among you, I cannot mix that beautiful truth with a lie called Trinitarianism. 94 And that day Cranmer chose a road that is never easy; he chose the road of Elijah; he chose not to settle among the Adventists. 95 But Cranmer had to gather those truths together and carry them out again; he had to clean up the error of the truth he had found, strip away the Catholic traditions. 96 And this is why he was a voice of Elijah; he was a Petalonian carrier, he was a Zadokite priesthood, because he confronted Ellen White, he confronted all error of his day. 97 And that, my brothers and sisters, led up to the great meeting in December of 1857 when Ellen White came to confront Gilbert Cranmer. 98 And while they were there, there was a great, great, great blowup, if thou wilt; and it was upon that hour and that moment, even under the pressure of face to face with Ellen White. 99 That in 1858 — five years — now listen to this carefully — five years a non-Trinitarian sat in a Trinitarian church to pick up the next morsel of truth. 100 If thou ever wonderest why God allowed thee in some of those churches thou went through — I came through the Pentecostal church, there was some truth there I had to pick up, there were some things there that I had to pick up. 101 And the same with every one of thee; everywhere along thy journey, God hath had thee to pick up the things; and now is the time to take the things thou picked up, dry them or clean them off, line them up, and prepare a perfect message. 102 And that is exactly what happened with Cranmer; well, when Cranmer left the Seventh-day Adventist Church — alone, by the way — he knew of no one else in all of the world, according to his own testimony, that was anti-Trinity. 103 He just left a group of people that preached what he loved — Sabbath, coming kingdom — but they were not preaching one God and his son Yeshua the Messiah; so he had to walk away, like many of thee. 104 I have many of thee watching me now that walked away from Armstrongism; some of thee walked away from Jehovah's Witnesses, thou picked up wonderful things there, wonderful morsels of truth. 105 Some of thee walked away from the charismatic world, thou walked away from Baptist churches, Pentecostal churches, but thou picked up some good things. 106 But the Lord said, now we are not going to focus on the bad; thou take the good and thou keep walking, because I have more for thee. 107 And I thank God that there hath always been somebody willing — called the Christian Connection, called the little group of people — that was willing to stand alone — hallelujah. 108 Well, when Cranmer left that church, he had no idea that throughout the state of Michigan where he was, there were some other people that were leaving the Seventh-day Adventist Church over the same thing — the Trinity doctrine. 109 So Cranmer started meeting up with these people, walking; he literally walked to meet these people all over Michigan. 110 And he began organizing these little people into what he called — and this blew my mind when I read this — regions; that is the exact word that he used; I literally died when I read that. 111 He started organizing this little group into regions, and there in Michigan they had regions of just two or three here; he literally said there may be — he said there may be two or three within a hundred miles, but that would be that in that region. 112 And he would gather them together and put them in regions, and he preached tirelessly; according to Cranmer, he preached three hundred and sixty days out of the year; he traveled constantly. 113 And he did something that would make sure the movement would survive after him — he began to ordain ministers; and he said in his writing that he had more ordained ministers in his regions than he had members. 114 And I literally like to have died at that point because my mind is blown when I think — hallelujah — of how things change; they stay the same — hallelujah. 115 Now I want to introduce thee to one of his co-workers that he ordained, one of the first men that heard his message and began to follow this apostle; I believe Cranmer was an apostle. 116 And one of those brothers — they began to build the movement; his name was Arasus G. Branch, 1873; Arasus Branch was a key figure; they called him the right hand of Gilbert Cranmer. 117 He labored hand in hand with Cranmer until he died in 1873; after he died, his sons took his place after his death and continued the ministry decades after. 118 There was also a man by the name of John Keys who would later become a significant figure in the movement and leave detailed — so how do I know all of these things I am telling thee tonight? 119 Because of this man, John Keys, who wrote it all down; he wrote all these things that I am telling thee; he wrote them down. 120 And I pray that Yahweh would raise up someone in our movement that is writing our history, writing everything down — the struggles we have been through, the court battles — and I pray we have someone like that that the Lord would anoint to become our reporter, if thou wilt. 121 Because it is important, because this is what he did — he wrote down the movement and what happened, and that is how we know about the great movement today. 122 As the movement continued to build with Apostle Gilbert Cranmer, elder after elder — according to Keys, what he wrote down — was that Gilbert Cranmer ordained elders and sent them out to preach the kingdom message, the Bible alone. 123 And this, brothers and sisters, was what brought truth out of the Seventh-day Adventist Church — was this great apostle by the name of Gilbert Cranmer; he founded a work, a movement of truth that brought us into the next era of Yahweh's work. 124 Well, interestingly enough, there was something happening across the country that those folks in Michigan knew nothing about, and it was in the great state of Iowa. 125 Now this is important, because in those days there was no internet, there were no telephones to know what was going on in the work of God across the world. 126 But in a town called Marion, Iowa, another group of Sabbath-keeping Seventh-day Adventists had come to the exact same truth that Cranmer had. 127 The Iowa brethren had been part of the Millerite movement; they kept the Sabbath, they expected the second coming, but they had rejected Ellen White's Trinitarianism. 128 And these people had something that Cranmer did not have yet — the feast days of the Old Testament; and they believed that the crucifixion happened on Wednesday rather than Friday; Cranmer did not have that, Cranmer did not know that. 129 But in Iowa — not only did they — now watch this, the Iowa brethren — not only had the one God and his son, seventh day, coming kingdom, but something is being added to them, another bread morsel to bring them home. 130 And this is the feast days; and then the crucifixion being on Wednesday rather than Friday; if thou art — if thou dost not know this ministry, if this is thy first time — everything I am telling thee right now, we believe. 131 Hallelujah — all of these things that we are finding, hallelujah, hath been restored in this hour to this end-time work of God — hallelujah. 132 Now — hallelujah — in 1860, I will pull that back up for thee so thou canst keep up with me here. 133 Now remember, this is happening simultaneously with Michigan; Iowa and Michigan are having the exact same move of the spirit, the exact same one. 134 All right, now in 1860, the Iowa Sabbath-keepers formally organized; and in 1863, the same year is when the Seventh-day Adventist Church was officially founded in Battle Creek, Michigan. 135 So I want thee to look closely and tell me if anybody is picking up on the spirit what I am putting down right now; doth anybody see what I started this lesson with tonight? 136 There is always — doth anybody see it? Two lines — there is always the true move of God and the former move of God; there is always the twin spirits. 137 So in 1863, the Seventh-day Adventist Church forms in Battle Creek, Michigan with Ellen White and James White and the sea captain Joseph Bates — they are the three founders there; and so that is in 1863. 138 But notice what happeneth on August the tenth, 1863 — at the exact same year, exact same moment, is when the Iowa brethren issue a brand new publication. 139 And the name of that publication is the Hope of Israel — hallelujah, hallelujah, amen, hallelujah, amen. 140 And brothers and sisters, the history I am teaching thee right now — I was not aware of — as Yahweh is my living witness — when he spoke those exact words to me. 141 I do not know if y'all know this or not — every Saturday, tomorrow at one o'clock, our message is broadcast all over the world on that satellite, and it is called the Hope of Israel, and it is an over-the-air broadcast. 142 And the Lord spoke to me what to name that supernaturally; I was teaching a lesson, and if I am not mistaken — if somebody will go back and watch that book of Acts teaching I did — I believe it is in that lesson on the second act of the book of Acts. 143 I believe towards the end of that lesson I turned to somebody and I said, and the Lord just said, let us name it the Hope of Israel; I do not know if anybody remembereth that moment. 144 But I do — hallelujah — I remember it; hallelujah, I remember that moment when God gave me this name for a telecast. 145 And what was the name of their newspaper to get the message out? The Hope — that just, I am sorry, that just sort of blows my little mind — the Hope of Israel. 146 It is no coincidence — none, brother; look at that, I want thee to look at that side by side; one was a newspaper, this one is a newscaster, and both called the Hope of Israel. 147 It is coming full circle — it just truly blows the mind; let us talk about the Hope of Israel newspaper just a moment. 148 The paper was established in Hartford, Michigan; Enus Easton was the editor and Gilbert Cranmer was the corresponding editor. 149 And let us read their founding statement — it is on thy screen; this is the first time thou art going to hear the commandments mentioned in written form in a newspaper in America. 150 That the Bible and the Bible alone containeth the whole moral law and all necessary precepts to govern God's people in every age, without the addition of any human creed — talking about the Catholic Church — or articles of faith. 151 That sin is the transgression of the law, and that the law by which sin is known is the law of the ten commandments. 152 And that, brothers and sisters, that is the witness of what Yahweh was doing in that hour; that was the birth certificate of what would become the Church of God Seventh Day. 153 The Hope of Israel became the connection among the scattered Sabbath-keepers across the world; through its pages, believers from Missouri to Nebraska to the eastern seaboard learned that they were not alone. 154 That there were others who kept the Sabbath, rejected the Trinity, were now keeping the feast; and then that leads us up to the next chapter in this amazing story. 155 Apostle — yes — today with the internet, we can find anybody at any time at their fingertips; I was just thinking how the way news traveled back in those days was so slow, it could take days and weeks for that paper to reach across the country. 156 How hungry had they had to have been? Yes — it is amazing; thou makest this unbelievably interesting — I pray so. 157 I want thee to see thy family, where thou camest from. 158 Now this brings us up to what is known as the Stanberry years; I am going to introduce thee to a few more men now that are thy spiritual antecedents. 159 The Hope of Israel newspaper moved its publication from Michigan to Iowa, and then they moved it to the small town of Stanberry, Missouri in the 1880s. 160 So that meaneth America is about a hundred years old at this point; the General Conference of the Church of God was formally organized in 1884. 161 Now this is not the Church of God all — this is the Church of God Seventh Day, that is their moniker; it was incorporated in 1899. 162 And then the Hope of Israel changed its name several times to eventually become what it still is today; didst thou hear that? It is still printed today — it is known as the Bible Advocate; thou canst subscribe to it today. 163 And that goeth all the way back, and they have still got — last week I showed thee the ancient articles from the 1800s; thou canst still read them, it is still in existence today. 164 Now, the thing about Stanberry that I would like for thee to notice — Stanberry should not be the headquarters of anything; Stanberry was a small farming community in the rolling hills of northwest Missouri, far from any city, train station, airport, or conference hall. 165 But for the scattered Sabbath-keepers of the Church of God, Stanberry became their Jerusalem, their headquarters, the place where — listen to this carefully — where all their printing work was done. 166 Their main focus was printing; where their ministers received all their credentials came from Stanberry, and where the people gathered for their annual conferences to discuss their matters of faith and to practice their faith. 167 Now the church in Stanberry remained very, very small; it was a very, very small place; as a matter of fact, Herbert Armstrong wrote about this church years later and he said, the only church that I had ever heard of which kept the commandments of God and the testimony of Messiah at the same time bore the name — was the little Church of God with a printing press in Stanberry, Missouri. 168 He said it was a little church with scattered members — I just find that interesting; a little church, headquarters church, with scattered members. 169 Little people — absolutely — and listen to what he saith here. 170 Of which few of them live in Stanberry — he said that there was probably a thousand members scattered across the nation, and he said none of their congregations had more than a hundred members. 171 He said it was not a megachurch, there was no empire — it was just a remnant; a few believers scattered across farms and towns, bound together by a shared conviction that the seventh day was the Sabbath, that Messiah was coming again, that God and his son were not equal. 172 And yet from this small, insignificant movement would emerge streams that would circle the entire globe — amen, hallelujah. 173 Oh, it is amazing — this story is really mind-blowing; I want to introduce thee now to the next apostle, or the next Petalon wearer, of this great movement. 174 After Cranmer, God always, always, always hath a man; always — he always hath a man; and that man's name was Duggar — Andrew N. Duggar. 175 Now this is where something interesting happeneth — Yahweh is trying to drop a nugget of truth into Andrew Duggar's heart. 176 Because up to this point, thou dost not hear anything about Israel or Jerusalem; thou dost not remember? Remember, saints — there is no Jerusalem in 1930 when Andrew Duggar became the president of the Church of God Seventh Day. 177 There is no Jerusalem; we are still under the Ottoman Empire, right? And it was called Roman Palestine, whatever they called it, but it was not Jerusalem. 178 And so there is no talk — no one in 1930 had any dream that Jerusalem would ever be a thing again; I mean, that was not even in the cards, that was not even in the cards. 179 In 1930, Jerusalem was not a nation or a state — it was lost forever. 180 And in the midst of that — oh wait, I have got to tell thee this story; Andrew Duggar had been part of the Millerite movement, an Adventist. 181 And while he was a member of the Millerite church, they commissioned Andrew Duggar to study and defend and refute the Sabbath day, because some people were starting to keep the Sabbath; they were trying to refute it. 182 So they get Andrew Duggar, a brilliant mind; but the problem is, the more Duggar studied to refute the Sabbath, the more convinced he became of the Sabbath. 183 Whenever Andrew Duggar began to come up, he had six hundred and forty acres of land; he was homesteaded in Bassett, Nebraska, raising cattle and hay out in the great plains, and he had enough money saved to buy another six hundred and forty acres. 184 And so that twelve hundred acres almost of land that he had — his future was prosperous as a Nebraska farmer; and then one day something happened to Andrew Duggar. 185 He had a vision in 1930 — I am sorry, no, no, no, no, no, no, no — this was in 1910, long before 1930. 186 He had a vision and he saw a bright light in the sky shining all around him, and it turned into the direction of Jerusalem; at that moment he understood that this was a call from Yahweh to follow his father's footsteps in the ministry. 187 So he sold everything he had — the cattle, the horses, six hundred and forty acres of land — and he went and enrolled in the University of Chicago where he studied theology and public speaking. 188 He mastered Greek, Hebrew, and German; he became the most educated Church of God minister in his generation. 189 Now, he soon married a woman named Effie Carpenter; and when they were married, they spent fifty years together. 190 Soon after his graduation, the executive committee of the Church of God Seventh Day invited Duggar to move in the middle of nowhere to Stanberry, Missouri, what they called Jerusalem; he was to take up his father's position as the editor of the Hope of Israel. 191 It was in 1914 — World War I erupted; Anthony Duggar arrived in Stanberry and began a ministry that would shape the Church of God Seventh Day for the next sixty years. 192 For eighteen years he was the editor of the Hope of Israel, the president of the General Conference, and then he had a world-famous debate about the Sabbath day called the Porter-Duggar debate. 193 It was a debate between Duggar and C. Curtis Porter of the Church of Christ; and that book from that debate was published — it is two hundred and thirty pages long — and it became a standard text in Sabbatarian apologetics. 194 In 1919, Duggar wrote a book called The Bible Home Instructor; I just found that book and ordered it from my library — it is in route. 195 In 1919, Duggar wrote the Bible Home Instructor, which is a comprehensive study that laid out the Church of God Seventh Day's distinctive doctrines. 196 Now what thou art going to find — if thou art lucky enough to get thy hands on that book — thou art going to think thou art reading FHMI Apostolic Assembly literature; truly from 1919. 197 And that book, by the way, is still in print today — very expensive, I must warn thee; but it is still in print; now, I believe someone made a copy of it because it is no longer copyrighted, and that is available on Amazon for fourteen dollars, but it is not the original book. 198 I have ordered the original; now what I want to show thee is what Andrew Duggar established in 1924. 199 In 1924, let us see if I can pull it up — there we go, there we are — he established the Arian theology of Yeshua and his son, the Arian Christology. 200 In 1924, Duggar established the Christology of the Church of God Seventh Day, promoting an Arian or biblical Unitarian position that distinguished the son from the father and rejected the Trinitarian formulation. 201 And so that happened in 1924; so if anybody ever telleth thee, Pastor Vaughn is teaching some new stuff — I wished I was that smart, I wished I was teaching new stuff, but I am not. 202 Okay, I started — when I started, I thought it was new, but I have come to find out I was not all that after all — hallelujah, praise the Lord, glory to God. 203 I am just a sounding board — sounds to me like hallelujah, amen. 204 Now, after he published that, Andrew Duggar started thinking — just like I — I did not know about, by the way, I did not know about any of these people before this series started. 205 But something triggered Andrew Duggar and said, thou knowest what? I want thee to trace back the Church of God Seventh Day all the way back; I want thee to trace it back. 206 I want thee to prove this is not a new invention from the nineteenth century, but I want thee to prove that it is something far older than that — an unbroken chain stretching all the way back to the apostles. 207 He wanted to trace that chain; he wanted to document it; he wanted the world to know that the Sabbath truth had never died out. 208 And in 1935, he partnered with a man by the name of — let me see if I can find him up here, well, I do not have him up here — the name is Dodd, Clarence O. Dodd. 209 They joined up together and wrote a book — thou art not going to believe this, thou art not even going to believe me when I tell thee. 210 They wrote a book in 1935 called The History of the True Church; and ladies and gentlemen, if I am not sitting here — I am not sitting here — if they do not go back to John the Apostle as the high priest. 211 When I tell thee what I am telling thee right now — I am telling thee they traced everything that we have traced; they did it in 1935; we are not that special, it hath already been done — 1935. 212 Oh — that is special under the sun; amen — there is nothing new under the sun. 213 Praise Yahweh — Yahweh is my witness, I did not know any of that; I had never even heard these names before this series started. 214 When Yahweh showed me John the Apostle wore the Petalon, that is how this series started; I did not have any idea what I was going to teach; I did not know where it went after that, I just knew where it started. 215 And these men — that is exactly what it is; this is the work of the Holy Ghost, this is not a man's work; this is Yahweh, determined to bring his people into all truth. 216 Now, by the way, thou canst get that book — The History of the True Church by Clarence O. Dodd and Andrew Duggar — and thou art going to find the Waldensians, thou art going to find the Austinites, thou art going to find them all. 217 And I when I — I just, it is all in there — hallelujah, oh man, man, man, man, man, hallelujah; praise be the name of the Lord. 218 Now, Duggar — I am going to tell thee something else that I found interesting about Duggar; let us see if we cannot pull old Duggar back up because this is interesting. 219 Duggar had a vision and he said — listen to what Duggar said — oh Lord have mercy. 220 Duggar said in his writing that the Lord spoke to him and said for him to move to Jerusalem; he moved to Jerusalem because he said that one day the headquarters of the Church of God would move back to Jerusalem. 221 This is before Jerusalem was ever rediscovered in 1948 — amen; Andrew Duggar moves to Jerusalem. 222 Now here is the problem, saints — there is no revelation yet of the lost tribes message; there is no one anywhere, thou wilt not find it anywhere, where anybody understood the lost tribe message yet. 223 And yet God is sending him back to Jerusalem to plan his — he moved there; he died in Jerusalem because Yahweh was already trying to teach him how this thing ends up. 224 And so when Duggar moved to Jerusalem, he believed that that headquarters in Missouri would move to Jerusalem; that did not happen in his lifetime, but it will happen — hallelujah. 225 The world headquarters of the Assembly of Yahweh will move back to Jerusalem — amen. 226 And so all of this showeth us that Duggar was an apostle; he had a few other things that he taught that I teach — I did not know he taught them, but he taught the same thing. 227 Let us look at a few of those things that Duggar taught, because nobody was teaching them besides him in his day; by the way, this is what they wrote about in the book called The History of the True Church. 228 Duggar and Dodd, they traced it all the way back to Yeshua and the apostles — an unbroken chain, an unbroken chain. 229 Wow — just like thou hast, apostle, for us the same — amen, amen; it is really amazing, is it not? My Lord, my Lord, my Lord, my Lord. 230 Now, this is some of Duggar's beliefs; on the left — Duggar did not believe, and this caused a great division by the way — he did not believe that pastors should be elected. 231 He believed, like me, that they should be ordained supernaturally by Yahweh and by the drawing of the lot rather than election; and I have always said electing a pastor is so ungodly and so unbiblical. 232 And so that was some of his beliefs; and so as I look at these things, it truly doth blow my mind; I must hurry, my time is running out. 233 Andrew Duggar died in Jerusalem in 1975; and by the way, I was born in 73; Duggar left the scene two years after I came into this world — hallelujah. 234 Andrew Duggar died in Jerusalem 1975 at the age of eighty-nine years old; and then his son-in-law took over the work there in Jerusalem. 235 Now, as always with the work of God — as always — many people wondered why I did not get upset when we had a split long ago; why doth it not bother me? 236 Because I have studied church history; I know it hath to come; anytime a great move of God cometh, there hath to be a split — it is just — it is why it did not bother me, it is why it doth not bother me. 237 People think I am hard-hearted — no, no, no, no, no; baby, when thou knowest history and thou knowest it repeats itself, thou just ridest the wave while it repeats itself. 238 And indeed, among this great move of God, there was a split in 1933; they did not remain united; three elders turned against the Apostle Andrew Duggar — wow, wow. 239 It never changeth — unbelievable — it never ever ever changeth. 240 They were upset that Duggar had all the control, and they wanted more control, and the church split in 1933. 241 They turned against Duggar and they took over headquarters that Duggar had built there in Missouri; they took it over, his telegram channel and so forth and so on, they took it over, and literally kicked him out of his own ministry that he had built by the supernatural provision and power of God. 242 They had doctrinal differences, and one of them — thou art not going to believe what it was — it is the same one in every division: Passover. 243 The Stanberry elders, led by Bert Mars, they wanted to eat pork, smoke tobacco, and do Passover whenever they wanted to; but Duggar, being an apostle like Polycarp, wanted to do it on the fourteenth day of the first month. 244 So what happened? Amen — so what happened after the split? What happened was Duggar, and those that considered him an apostle — sorry, they went with Duggar to Salem, West Virginia and established a second headquarters. 245 Now thou hast got two headquarters; thou hast got the elders that are leading their Zoom meeting and thou hast got the apostle that is leading his. 246 And this great split always occureth because Duggar wanted elders — seventy ministers and a council of twelve elders; and doth anybody remember me mentioning twelve elders years ago? 247 Council of twelve elders — yes, sir — look, look at thy screen; Duggar wanted to reorganize and have twelve elders as a council. 248 Seventy — how many, how many, how many — doth anybody remember how many elders I told thee I was going to appoint before I died? Seventy — seventy elders. 249 Doth anybody remember that? Yes, sir, seventy elders — I have always said before I died I will appoint seventy elders; and that is exactly what Duggar — Yahweh told him to do. 250 By the way, I had never heard this man's name before yesterday; and so now thou hast got two headquarters — one over in Missouri, and now thou hast got one over in Salem, West Virginia, with the Apostle Duggar. 251 Now, there are two men that we are going to talk about tonight that came up under Apostle Duggar; Clarence O. Dodd — remember that name, thou art going to need to remember it next week — and Herbert W. Armstrong. 252 Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah — Herbert Armstrong recognized a true apostle and stayed with Duggar; and here we come, brothers and sisters, to the great part of this story. 253 Later about from 19 — some — now watch this; I have always told thee that the split we had — all right, let me try to break this down; I have never told this story before, I am going to tell it now because now is the time. 254 There are only two or three people here that know this story; Vicky Baker knoweth it, Ricky Homrich knoweth it, my wife knoweth it — I think that is the only people here that know this story. 255 In the year 2014 — 2014 — I got a phone call from a pastor in Alabama; and that pastor found out we were Sabbath-keepers, spirit-filled, and they wanted to come meet me because they were also in Mobile, Alabama, spirit-filled Sabbath-keepers. 256 So one Friday night they came — we had church on Friday nights back then — and they fellowshipped with us and we fell in love with them; they fell in love with us; and eventually they started coming at least one Friday night a month. 257 We are in fellowship; the only problem is they only had a handful of people and we only had a handful of people, and there was no other church to fellowship with that we knew of as far as that believed like us. 258 And they came over and heard me preach, and they knew what I believed about God and his son because we had talked about it in private conversations many times, and yet we were in fellowship — there was no problem whatsoever. 259 Now listen to me carefully — I need everybody to listen; they knew exactly what I believed, it was no secret what I believed; they did not quite believe like I did — they were Oneness and I was not. 260 And so, but thou knowest, we enjoyed the fellowship and we believed so much alike that we sort of put that on the back shelf. 261 A few months later we started talking and we said, man, we need to — why do we not put together a fellowship and find other people like us? And we started discussing a name for that fellowship. 262 And of course the name I wanted to use was the name God had given me that I told all of thee about; that is the name I wanted to use, and it was the Apostolic Church of God. 263 Now at that time I did not know the sacred names, so it was Church of God to me; I was stuck on that Apostolic Church of God; and they said, well, there is a church over in California somewhere that goes by that name, Apostolic Church of God. 264 They said, we prefer the name Covenant Apostolics; and I said, okay, that sounds good, let us roll with it. 265 So we formed, and immediately I began introducing them to some of my friends — such as Brother Chuck Overby over in Meridian, Mississippi, that was my friend, and he joined the fellowship because of me introducing them. 266 Brother Chris Reid came to the Sabbath under my ministry and I introduced them to Brother Chris Reid; Brother Clifton up in Tennessee, I introduced him to them and he joined the fellowship. 267 Brother Sullivan in Tennessee, I introduced him to them; Brother Jay Gillis, I introduced him to them — so I brought all of these churches together into this organization. 268 And we had churches popping up everywhere, and I was a founder of that work — me and these two other pastors — and they knew what I believed about one God and his son Yeshua from the very beginning. 269 So anyway, the movement began to grow, and as it grew, I had a lot of influence over it; I spoke at all of the conventions and the meetings. 270 Until one day it was decided that they could not go along with what I believed about God and his son, even though they could go along with it while I was building the organization — thou understandest? 271 The brothers said I was just scaffolding, I just helped build it; but they knew the whole time what I believed. 272 So when the time came to vote in a presiding bishop, which was the other brother, then there was a video made that said, if thou believest that God and Yeshua — and if thou dost — then thou art not welcome here. 273 So I sent in my resignation letter that day; just like Cranmer did, and said, okay, I will catch y'all later, because I will follow truth every day of the week. 274 And so, long story short, when I read this story about Duggar, I said, my God, I have been there, I have been right there; thou had two competing headquarters — now thou have Waveland and Mobile, Alabama — same thing. 275 But what I wanted to point out about that story was — years later in 1949, the split reunited because they had come to see Duggar's side of the doctrine, and they all reunited. 276 And I will show thee about that reuniting that happened between those two organizations or movements; bear with me one second — hallelujah. 277 The great split — and then there was, after the great split, there was a great reuniting; here we go. 278 The reunion and the remnant — 1949; Stanberry and Salem both reunite and become the Church of God Seventh Day, and they moved their headquarters to Denver, Colorado, where it remains to this very day. 279 But there was a reason that Yahweh allowed the split, and I want to show that reason to thee; because during that split there was freedom for men to begin finding more truth than Stanberry had or the Apostle Duggar had. 280 Had it not been for the split, there would have been no freedom for other men to come forth; and it was during that time that Dodd and Herbert Armstrong began discovering things in the Bible that neither Elder Duggar nor the Stanberry leadership would have ever let them bring forth. 281 Because the split was sent by God; and let me show thee, for those that do not know the rest of the story of that I just told thee. 282 Let me tell thee what split our fellowship even more than God and his son — it was the Zadokite calendar; I was the first pastor — Elder Homrich is standing there saying amen. 283 I was the first pastor in America to publicly promote the Zadokite calendar in 2014; the one — thou knowest — anyone that had a voice, influence, or church — I was the first one that went on YouTube. 284 Go search, go look — thou art going to find not only was I the first in America for January the sixth and so many other things, but the Zadokite calendar. 285 Now, Jerry Morris was before me, but Jerry was not an influential voice, he did not have a platform at that time; but I was the first one that had a platform and an organization of churches that brought the Zadokite calendar. 286 And they hated that — they hated that; there was a major battle over that calendar; I was kicked out of my organization that I helped found over the calendar and the Godhead. 287 And so that is why thou hast to understand — had it not been for the split, I would not have been allowed to move forward into all the things we have learned since then. 288 And that is what happened in that split — it opened up the door of revelation until they could all come back together. 289 Now, I have this belief that there will be a coming back together in the future of the brethren that keep the Sabbath and the holy days under pure doctrine. 290 Now I want to just show thee what happeneth to men like Gilbert Cranmer; he never became famous; he died with no popularity in 1903 at the age of eighty-nine years old. 291 Now I have only got ten minutes left tonight; if my wife is watching, I could take something to drink — my voice is drying out on me. 292 But I want to bring thee to a very important part of tonight's story and then I am going to let thee go; we have got ten minutes left, hang tight with me, let us scroll down. 293 And what we are going to find is at this moment in the history of the church, two streams are beginning to come forth; the Sabbath truth that Cranmer had championed was flowing into new channels. 294 And the name of Yahweh had been buried for centuries — no one had mentioned that name in America, no one; all they had used were titles and substitutions. 295 But because of Gilbert Cranmer, that apostle, he created two men that came under Duggar that are about to bring the name of God back to the world. 296 The man's name is Clarence O. Dodd; and there is another man — thank thee, my love — that is about to bring back more truth, by the name of Herbert W. Armstrong. 297 And I want to tell thee that story now, how it came to pass, just so thou understandest the Oregon connection. 298 Over in Oregon in the Willamette Valley was a group of Sabbath-keepers; they were members — now watch this — they were members of the Stanberry, Missouri conference. 299 They were just a little group, there was just a handful of them in that valley in Oregon — scattered members, just like y'all are; every one of thee is a scattered member of our little headquarters church. 300 Well, these scattered members lived in the valley of Oregon, the Willamette Valley; they were farmers; and into that valley moved Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong, the father and the mother of Herbert Armstrong. 301 When they got there, there was a lady — and thou needest to remember this lady's name — that lived in that valley; she was a Sabbath-keeper, just like Oakley was just a few generations earlier. 302 This woman's name was Emma Runcorn — R-U-N-C-O-R-N — Emma Runcorn; and her husband's name was Aura or O.J. Runcorn; they had been Sabbath-keepers for many years. 303 O.J. served as the president of the Oregon Conference of the Church; now let me break that down for thee — what is an Oregon conference? 304 Just like thee folks in Tennessee, thou art the Tennessee conference or region; so in the Oregon Valley, Runcorn was basically the elder of that conference. 305 All right, there were not a bunch of them; as a matter of fact, when y'all get together tomorrow in Tennessee, I want thee to look around — that is what it looked like in the days of the Oregon Valley. 306 They had an elder, just a handful of them; oh hallelujah — the more things change; when thou gatherest together in region one tomorrow, look around — thou art the Runcorns, thou art the Oregon Valley people. 307 Just a handful of thee — that is all God hath ever needed, that is all God ever needed; because what thou art about to find out about this little region in Oregon — thou art going to find out they changed the world. 308 And thou art going to find out that if it were not for them, little people in that Oregon Valley, none of thee would be sitting here today, because I would not be teaching thee this truth. 309 Hallelujah — well, I am teaching thee the truth tonight because of one woman by the name of Emma Runcorn. 310 Emma Runcorn was an avid student of the Bible; she lived next door in Salem, Oregon to the parents of Herbert Armstrong; their name was Horace and Eva Armstrong; they moved into that valley next door. 311 I want thee to hear what I just told thee — if thou dost not believe our steps are ordered of the Lord, if thou dost not believe even where thou livest is ordered of the Lord, even the house thou art in is ordered of the Lord — God moved the Armstrongs next door to Sister Runcorn. 312 Oh yes — and let me tell thee what happened; in the fall of 1926, Herbert Armstrong's business had collapsed; he and his wife Loma Armstrong went down to Salem, Oregon to visit his parents — thou knowest, the ones that live next door to Sister Runcorn. 313 While they were there, Loma Armstrong became acquainted with their neighbor, the elderly neighbor, Lady Emma Runcorn. 314 And what happened next changed the lives of millions of people, including thine, from around the world. 315 Because remember what book it was in a prison cell that brought me the truth? I will never forget it — The Mystery of the Ages, right here; this book changed my life. 316 And this book would never have been written without Sister Runcorn in that Oregon Valley. 317 Now I do not want thee really reading the book because there are some things that are wrong in it; but the rest of it is good; the only thing that is wrong in it is the Godhead — Herbert Armstrong did not quite have the Godhead figured out. 318 But anyway, he knew there was no Trinity, he was not Trinitarian, he was Binitarian, which is wrong; but anyway, so that is the reason I do not really promote the book, but it changed my life. 319 However, that book alone hath created more Sabbath-keepers than anybody else's ministry in the whole world in history. 320 Was a morsel of bread — that is exactly what it was, it was a morsel of bread for me to come home to, Elder. 321 And so that day — let me show thee what happened that day; this picture changed the lives of millions of people. 322 There is Sister Runcorn with Loma Armstrong in 1926, and they sit down together; and that day, Miss Runcorn said, Loma, can I give thee a Bible study? 323 And she asked her to turn to a certain passage and read it; she never preached to Loma Armstrong; she said, now read this verse, gave her another one, gave her a third one — for about an hour, all she did was have Loma read Bible verses about the Sabbath day. 324 That was it; and when she was finished, Loma Armstrong — not Herbert, Loma — was fully convinced that Saturday, the seventh day, was the Sabbath of Yahweh. 325 The meeting on thy screen between two little women just studying the Bible changed the world; literally changed lives around to this very day. 326 Sarah Vaughn is here; Sarah Shepherd Smith, Sister Shepherd is here; a life that was my very own; Elder Deb Tuttle — all, I could go on — many of your lives transformed by them two women having a Bible study on the Sabbath day. 327 Well, Herbert Armstrong hated the message his wife had found; he fought her so hard, he fought her; and he went to studying the word to prove her completely wrong. 328 And then by the spring of 1927, Herbert Armstrong surrendered and he said, I was completely converted. 329 And right after he was converted, he was baptized in the Church of God Seventh Day under Elder Duggar; and there he became a member of the Church of God Seventh Day. 330 And then in 1926 the Armstrongs started attending the small Church of God Seventh Day congregation in Jefferson, Oregon; and in that little church in Jefferson, Oregon is where this great man of God got his start in his walk with God. 331 And then after that he was asked to preach his first sermon, and I will show thee where that was — Armstrong's first sermon, the summer of 1928. 332 They asked him to preach and he preached on the Sabbath covenant in a meeting room above the old Beaver store in Jefferson, Oregon. 333 Armstrong said being a preacher was the last thing he ever wanted to be — but Yahweh had other plans. 334 And then, brothers and sisters, shortly thereafter, after the call to preach, he was ordained into the ministry there in that Jefferson church under these wonderful ministers in Jefferson, Oregon. 335 He said, it seemed like I was entirely weighted down with the heaviest load I had ever stood under, as one of the ministers asked God in prayer to ordain me into the ministry of Yeshua Messiah and his gospel. 336 And that day changed many, many, many lives; now, in 1930, many members of the Church of God in Oregon gathered in Jefferson. 337 And after he was ordained, something is about to happen that even Herbert Armstrong rejects the next move of God. 338 What thou art about to find is God had to find two men, not one, two men, for the next move; because the truth that is about to come forth after the ordination of Herbert Armstrong would require two streams, two men. 339 Because both men would reject what the other man had; I am so glad Yahweh found men that he could use. 340 And brothers and sisters, when Herbert Armstrong entered the scene, he started a radio program there in Oregon on WKOE called the Radio Church of God. 341 I am going to pick up next week right there a little bit when I show thee what God did, and then I am going to bring it on all the way through. 342 But before I do, before I even go there — the next move of God was about to happen simultaneously with Herbert Armstrong with another man, William Dodd. 343 And what is the next move of God? Let me show thee on thy screen; it is a move that Armstrong rejected. 344 And I believe if he would not have rejected it, his church would still be alive today; that great work that he did for Yahweh would not have died if he would not have rejected this next move. 345 Ladies and gentlemen, the next move of God after the 1930s would happen because of one question that would not go away. 346 Within the scattered fellowship of the Church of God Seventh Day, there were men and women who sensed that the restoration was not yet complete. 347 The Sabbath had been recovered; the second coming was being preached; but a question kept surfacing — a question as old as Moses standing before the burning bush. 348 What is his name? 349 May Yahweh bless thee; Shabbat shalom; thank thee for joining me tonight; shalom, shalom, shalom. 350 What a teaching — thank thee, hallelujah, hallelujah, shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom, that is.
