Jesus said ". . . the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world." Matthew 13:39, 40. Yet do we hear about this harvest? The prophetic book Revelation tells us, "And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap: for the time is come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped." Revelation 14:15, 16.Along with all this said, we should understand the judgment is good news; it's the everlasting gospel. This same chapter in Revelation says, "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and tribe, and language, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment has come: . . ." Revelation 14:6, 7. For those who will believe and trust God, the judgment is good news. "The 144,000" is about the judgment, the good news for the last days, the good news of the seal of God, the sealing of the 144,000. (Revelation 7:2) All will receive either the seal of God or be marked by the beast. There is no reason to receive the mark, but we must know what it is. The good news of the judgment is that God has made it possible for all to be sealed, not marked. But we need to study; we have to know what we must do to be approved of God.How about the rapture? When will it come; is it really as secretive as most think? What about the 490 year prophecy of Daniel 9:24 and the 2300 year prophecy of Daniel 8:14? Who is the Little Horn that rules for many years? "The 144,000" exposes the Man of Sin (2 Thessalonians 2:3), the Little Horn (Daniel 7:24; 8:9), the beast out of the sea (Revelation 13:1). It's all very easy to understand, if we take the time to study, and turn our lives over to God, wanting nothing else but to know and do His will. However, in order to truly comprehend, we must be born again. (John 3:5)

This is a book for Seventh-day Adventists, using terms and theology all SDA's should be familiar with. Within this book the author deals with who Israel is today. Is it a nation in the Middle East or should we look somewhere else? Has Israel done the work God has given her in order for her to complete the New Covenant Promise of Jeremiah 31:31-34? How long does it take for God to complete sanctification is His people? What does the latter rain do. Is there anything we can do to get the last day showers to fall? Who are the 144,000 in comparison to the great multitude? Why is the sealing on hold? How can the open door be closed to the most holy place and the door into the holy place be re-opened? When and how are sins blotted out? What does it mean to blot them out? What is the difference between the Book of Life and "the books?" How can the sanctuary motif help to better understand salvation? What is the difference between justification by faith and righteousness by faith? Is there a difference, and if so, what is it? All these questions and more have answers in "The Israel of Promise, the New Covenant Promise Complete.".

The mark of Cain didn't end with Cain. It's still with us today. The kings of the north and south in Daniel 10 & 11 must be properly identified. Why is explained in this book. Who or what is the "glorious holy mountain" and how does the king of the north get in? What good teachings must be restored and which must be swept away. Learn about Wm. Miller's dream.

When will God's people be sealed and how? The letter to the Hebrews mentions the New Covenant Promise twice. What is it, and when will it happen? Paul in Hebrews deals with the overall picture of salvation through faith; Hebrews was written to present the complete plan of Salvation, from justification, to sanctification, through the most holy place experience and on to the reception of the promise. This book, "They Received Not the Promise," clarifies the final scenes of the purging of sin from the life of the believer. It's about the cleansing of the sanctuary, the blotting out of sins, the finishing of the mystery of God, and the latter rain. It's the complete fulfillment of the New Covenant promise of God in Jeremiah 31:31-34. The letter to the Hebrews was written to inform us of God's promise, which up to the time of Paul, God's faithful believers had "received not the promise." In Hebrews it was necessary for Paul to go through the sanctuary service showing that Christ is fully God and man, Our High Priest who died for us; He is now working for the saving of our souls and the "perfecting of the saints."
