AL:
First it appears that my SDA fellow persons never seem to address what you ask. I am learning certain things or symbols on this forum and found out that my so call reputation as a SDA is not quite nice but it is alright. It is like that when you speak for the truth of my faith and also the errors of those whose choose to hold on to things that the Bible does not claim. I will be glad to answer the question through the power of the Holy Spirit. I am not judging you or anyone as I am judged however. I have made errors and when I am shown that I have done wrong I come and apologize because I want you to understand it is not about a Denomination but about the love of my Savior who die for me. I want to be saved and I want you and all on these forums the same and I speak what the Bible says and when you do you will not be well like or have here bonus points like Yashua even from your own. Through the grace of Elohim I will provide you an answer and may Yahweh's blessings be upon His true word and not mine.
All of your questions are finalizes in both Daniel and Revelation because these books are the same. The Bible is a road map to the Heavenly Kingdom and man must follow the path to be saved and that is really simple. But here the problem we all want to go it our way and not the way the Bible provides or presents it. That is why there are so many Denominations and everyone claims my way is right. The Bible should never be interpreted but understood and as I stated to you in another forum is has to do with defining words correctly. Let me be clear all Scholars define certain words that suites what they believe and it just does not work like that.
When sin came into this earth Yahweh promised our first parents that His Son would come and destroy sin. Well like most of us they wanted it to happen right away and didn't because man had to prove himself worthy of being redeem. It was not successful because a flood was brought on the earth in its infancy. Then one man Nimrod, a tyrant, took over almost the entire people of the earth becoming the only world Emperor and built a structure that cause the Almighty Ones to come down and destroy it completely. Now most will get upset with me but this was not some temple and the Bible never said that it took off the top of it either. We read all about aliens coming here and Solomon already stated that there is nothing new under the face of the sun. Eccl 1:9, 10 History repeats itself and I said this before and these people were genius and still lived a long time. Yahweh had to stop them and this how the languages came about because sinful man was on his way up! Elohim place a barrier around Mars and Jupiter to get us here on earth! Yes we been to the moon and Mars but no where else and those ancient writings are us. It all will be revealed very soon watch and see!
Yahweh provided you the nations of man so that we would respect each others way of life but we don't. He selected first Noah's grandson Canaan who had a problem like his daddy disrespected his elder (his father why he was drunk and naked) and that is all. Canaan received the call first, than Israel, than the Gentiles in that order. Catholicism formed by Satan (please this is not against the people who are sincere Catholic and want to be saved they will), was a destructive force. People began to protest through reform but they kept many of the concepts of the Catholic Church. Protestants started one church after another because the original church would not reform when someone found more truth by Elohim who was leading them the leaders would dispute and kick them out and on and on it went.
In the early 1800 man was scared of Elohim because the churches was preaching all fire and brim storm messages instead of love and repentance from sin. They had overlooked what Yahweh in the Bible had presented also there now were many versions of the Bible and Bible colleges under these many denominations. Yahweh sent a message out to a man name Miller and a great awaking took place. But once again Satan interrupted the truth that others found that others did not want to hear and here we are today. SDA had a message by Yahweh and it was found on positive principles but they too like the Jews think as all churches do that you must come through them to be saved. WRONG it is only through the Holy Spirit and not the messenger!!!!
Who is Gog why it is the beast/man and who is Israel it is those who have the message of Elohim today and not just the Jews of yesterday. Now let me explain the 144,000 will comprise people and kindred of all nations which include the Jews. All those Scriptures you provided will climax at the end of time. Sadly the Papacy (Gentile/harlot, Jerusalem (Babylon), the rebuilt Temple (Mount Moriah and not Jerusalem, the original Temple was build outside of Jerusalem read history. The same mountain that Abraham was about to offer up Isaac. It is not the Dome of the Rock that a high place but located south east down much lower near water.), the beast/man (once a Catholic of great importance but turn away with fury), all of Satan angels, the false prophet (USA), Europe (the ten horns that are not kings until the endtime), and the people east of the River Euphrates will all be against Elohim and both the 144,000 and the great multitude this is the remnant and not the SDA Church! This remnant will come from all religions of the earth that will repent and along with the 144,000 keep the commandments of Yahweh and have the Testimony of Yashua the Messiah. They also will call Yahweh, Yashua and the Holy Spirit by Their right names.
Now all Scriptures point to the end time which first will be the Time of Trouble and then the beast/man, the false prophet, Europe and the kings of the east will all joined together and fight the Papacy, Christians, and Jews who rejected truth in the final battle of Armageddon and they will be destroyed by a nuclear weapon but the city finally wiped out by a mighty angel of Yahweh and this great city will be caste into the sea.
Now the saints or remnant will be protected during this awful time because seven last plagues will fall on both evil foes. Already the earth have been devastated by Yahweh with a comet, asteroid, meteor (that will break up and hit the rivers and springs) meteors hitting a third part of the sun, moon and stars during the Time of Trouble. The beast/man will now focus on them and this is known as "Jacob time of trouble," because it is what all the saints will go through together. Sometime during this period a certain group of righteous dead and those who crucified the Saviour will arise. The Father will announce at this time His Son arrival the wicked will not understand but the Saints will understand. The beast/man and his army will try to kill the saints and the last plague of hail will fall to prevent him and then Yashua arrives without a fight place both the beast/man and the false prophet in a lake of fire. The rest of the beast/man earthly army will be destroyed and their flesh eaten as indicated. Satan and his evil angels will be locked down in the place they dwell after been kicked out of Heaven (the earth was not even made then.).
The saints will go to Heaven for a coronation first then review why the wicked was lost by going over the books of Heaven. They will realize the justice of Elohim and then all will return to the earth. The New Jerusalem will come and fill the hole of the old wicked Jerusalem (Babylon) because Mount Olive will become a plain. Satan and his angels will be loose one last time all the wicked will arise by Elohim and they will join with Satan. They will try to take the city but as they attempt to do so just like a web cam all including Satan and his angels will see their entire life and how they rejected truth. They all including Satan will bow and confess but again become angry and try again but we be destroyed in the lake of fire like the beast/man and the false prophet and then the earth will be made new end of story!
Blessings,
