NAME in forehead ? Rev. 22:4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

No more curse ? Rev. 22:3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

GHansen: My comment was related to your post on February 9. * EGW taught, as I could cite, that the Bible in the traditional Protestant sense was the ultimate authority for doctrine and belief as it contained the autoreactive teachings of Christ. You seem to present EGW as being the authority that determines what the Bible teaches. That position elevates her over the Bible. * In the early days of the SDA denomination (therefore our traditional belief) SDA leaders held to the idea that the Bible had authority over the writing s of EGW. In 1919, a division arose in which some leaders seem to have taken the position that the writings of EGW had authority over the Bible. But, that position was not taken by all.

Inherit all things ? Rev. 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Probably few Seventh-day Adventists are aware of the events that resulted in the founding of the denominations that were known as the United Sabbath-day Adventists and the Seventh-day Christian Conference. This story is now told in the book, Seventh-day Rebels.

While debatable, there is evidence in the book of Hebrews that the temple may have fallen, and that there was an expectation for Jesus’ coming to be related to the fall of Jerusalem. That Hebrews was written to explain that great disappointment, that Jesus was doing a special ministry for us in heaven that he could not do if he had returned to the earth. If this is one of the issues in Hebrews, while it could have been written by Paul when realizing sometime before he died that the second coming would not be connected to the fall of the temple, Paul died a few years before the attack and fall of the temple. The Pauline authorship would be like a Millerite who died in 1841 to have written a message on the event of October 23, 1844. Possible that he had the revelation, but not likely. Until we can ask Jesus about the author, my suggestion is that there was a man named Hiram Ben Ed, a student of Paul, who was expecting Jesus to come around the fall of Jerusalem, but as this did not happen, and the church wondering what went wrong, was Jesus really who they believed he was, that while walking through a grain field received the message of the book of Hebrews.
