"..BINDING in BUNDLES ..to BURN!" ..LEFT OUT! ..of Early Writings!
Whoever edited Early Writings hated this line. They also hated the 3rd Message.
In our 3rd installment of “left out of Early Writings”, we find the line:
“They are binding in bundles ready to burn.”
…LEFT OUT! not once but TWICE!
Once out of the vision, and once out of the explanation of a “Train of cars was shown me!” Supplement, 1854 p 6-7.
Left OUT of the vision:
Left OUT of the explanation:
This vision relates to the parable of the Wheat and the Tares, found in two places in Matthew 13. But the editor of “Early Writings” didn’t want you to know about any BINDING in BUNDLES. The editor of Spiritual Gifts removed all references to the SEALING. [Various alterations to Spiritual Gifts, also, Volume 1, Chapter 30, as per below.]
The ADVENT PEOPLE in the vision are all but INVISIBLE. Ellen has to be told where to look, she can’t find them at all! She thought the WHOLE WORLD was ONBOARD, and that there were “NONE LEFT”!
“I asked the ANGEL if there were NONE LEFT!”
[“NONE LEFT” is noticeably NOT a picture of ten of thousands being baptized! It is noticeably NOT a picture of INNUMERABLE MULTITUDES, nor of a world being converted.]
Note this, that the FIRMLY-UNITED LITTLE COMPANY [BOUND by the THIRD-ANGEL! LEFT OUT!] is going in an OPPOSITE DIRECTION, travelling on a NARROW PATHWAY!
And of them, SAID THE ANGEL! “THE THIRD ANGEL is BINDING them (SEALING THEM!) in BUNDLES for the HEAVENLY GARNER!”
They are also in “BUNDLES” or “COMPANIES”.
So, who made these changes? Someday maybe, but what we want to do right now is to study these text comparisons. The very lines which were CUT OUT call for our most careful scrutiny.
What is this BINDING, and what are these BUNDLES?
BINDING in BUNDLES describes a PROCESS whereby MANY are made ONE, by some method of CONSTRAINING. This would necessitate a “BINDING AGENT”. You’ll notice also, there is also more than one bundle.
And read from the original, a “BUNDLE” is a “COMPANY”.
[Scroll up and read it again from the original.]
Also:
“He will BIND men in BUNDLES, and claim the world is on his side. A corrupt UNION will exist among the wicked of the earth” Letter 1, 1875.
“Can we mix, mingle, and bind up our best interest in these BUNDLES or SOCIETIES?” Letter 1, 1882.
INTERESTS, UNIONS, Leagues, Confederacies, Societies, Alliances, and Combines.
[Not “combines” as in farm equipment. It’s the 19th century word meaning an association, union, or corporation.]
We’ve all heard about a ONE WORLD RELIGION, but what we are reading here is BUNDLES, “INTERESTS” and SOCIETIES. The WHOLE WORLD in the TRAIN-of-CARS vision is not “UNIFORM” nor “MONOLITHIC”— it is AMALGAMATED. United in some sense, but also very diverse, since people have many different “interests” and “societies”.
They are BOUND by THEIR “INTERESTS!” [Also “societies” and various related concepts.]
The wicked appear to be quite diffused here by various OFFICES, even though they ARE ALL going to the SAME DESTINATION [DESTRUCTION!] …having been BOUND INTO BUNDLES by their SOCIETIES and INTERESTS. We might also infer by their “OBLIGATIONS,” which is synonymous in certain situations.
Go see where she used the word BUNDLES.
You’ll find a whole new field of study opening wide when you see what was left out of Early Writings.
What are YOUR DEDUCTIONS? Sent them in, we’ll talk about them.
