    SHORT EXPLANATIONS. The Seven Stars. (Rev.)—The seven mys¬ teries of God : 1. Making man ; 2. Creating woman; 3. Promise of re¬ demption ,* 4. The angel appearing to Mary; 5. Christ’s birth; 6. Christ’s death ; 7- The revealing God’s will to a woman. Ark—The first ark preserved in water; the second in blood, which is Christ’s in full redemption, when the world is deluged in the blood of fire, famine, pestilence, and the sword. Woe—The 1st, when the world was drowned; 2nd, at the scattering the Jews; 3rd and last, to fall upon the Devil. Man is not to be destroyed—It was never the intention of his Maker, it is the powers of darkness. The “ man of sin” God will destroy. “Repented God”—Not that he had made man; but, that he had .made him so subject to Satan. Abram's faith, a strong type of the last day— Our faith is what w e judge God; this is the substance-meaning of faith, that God is faithful to fulfil. Devil—“ The man of sin,” (i.e.) very man and very devil. Christ—Very God and very man. Skin of the Devil left behind---(i.e.) the marks or traces of his former ravages on the earth, such as grave stones, Arc. “ It is finished”---The removing the curse man gained in Paradise, by placing the fault upon his Maker, or the power that men and devils had over the body of Christ. Time, times, and half a time (Dan.)—-1000, 2000,500 years---just 3500 years-—the centre of the age purposed for the world before the second resurrection. Seven Gifts—Giftof prophecy, of visions, spiritual sight, wisdom, faith, hope, charity. {(Lo I come to do thy will, 0! God”— What was the will of God when he had created man and woman ? Two Witnesses—Christ in the flesh, and Christ in the spirit, sent in 1792, [the same as] the two candlesticks, one sent to the Jews, the other to the Gentiles. First woman called mother, bearing Christ in the flesh ; the second called bride by her, the union is effected and the heirs brought in-Kev. xi. 4. First sacrifice the body of Christ ; se¬ cond, the soul, or spirit slain by un¬ belief, “ there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin,” The Elect oke, the Holy Ghost-—The Elect all who sign to bis authority, and for his universal kingdom. Which is to Elect him as God’s Elect—chosen one. This is Election- -established at the foundation of the world. Reprobationr—The Devil the reprobate one. His adherents in the end the reprobates (i.e.) at the final day of judgment, in the close of the 7009, when, God grant, he stands alone, and all mankind he saved The fulness of Gentiles is the redemption of man--For then we come to the fulness of Christ's merit, fulness of happiness, when the deliverer comes out of Zion to turn away ungodliness from Jacob. “Moon under feet(i.e.) treading down th e Tight that shines in darkness. The mighty Counsellor---Comes to clear up God’s wisdom in creating woman for man’s good. The judges and jury are men, the culprit Satan. On the day of Pentecost the shadow of the spirit was seen in persons of all religions being baptized, hut the sub¬ stance remains for all flesh— -neither then did women prophesy. (See Acts) tc Though red as scarlet”—In the blood of the crucifixion, shall he as white as wool in the sanctification of redemp¬ tion. The end of this world is the end of Satan’s reign in it The field is the world!! The pearl of great Price is to discover— l i.e purchase of Christ's death. And a:; the flood of water washed away the race of mankind—-so shall his blood wash away the root ofalt evil --which is in the Devil. No man can prove the Bible true. He who betieveth shall be sailed; but he who believe th not shall be damned- —\\'inch is the belief in the full redemption, or to commit ilie sin against tin Holy Ghost iu denying hib pewer.
