■ THE INJUNCTIONS TO GOD'S PEOPLE.
[Part One]
"But thou, O Daniel, and SEAL THE BOOK, even TO THE TIME OF THE END: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." [Daniel 12:4)
“SEAL UP THOSE THINGS which the seven THUNDERS UTTERED.” [Revelation 10:4.]
NOTE: First injunction [rule] given to Daniel probably around 538 BC, was to SEAL THE BOOK till the TIME OF THE END, which starts in 1798-1844.
Second injunction given was probably around AD 96, which prophetically commences in 1844.
Ellen G White commented of these injunction:
● The seven thunders related to this time.
"After these seven thunders uttered their voices, THE INJUNCTION COMES TO JOHN, AS TO DANIEL, in regard to the little book: [Rev.10:4]
THESE RELATED TO FUTURE EVENTS WHICH WILL BE DISCLOSED IN THEIR ORDER...... John heard THE MYSTERIES which the thunders uttered, but he was commanded not to write them. THE SPECIAL LIGHT given to John which was expressed in the seven thunders was A DELINEATION OF EVENTS WHICH WOULD TRANSPIRE UNDER THE FIRST AND SECOND ANGELS MESSAGES. It was not best for the people to know these things, for THEIR FAITH MUST NECESSARILY BE TESTED. In the order of God, most wonderful and advanced truths would be proclaimed. The FIRST AND SECOND ANGELS MESSAGES WERE TO BE PROCLAIMED, BUT NO FURTHER LIGHT WAS TO BE REVEALED BEFORE THESE MESSAGES HAD DONE THEIR SPECIFIC WORK.
This is represented by the Angel standing with one foot on the sea, proclaiming with a most solemn oath that TIME SHOULD BE NO LONGER.—Manuscript 59, 1900 (August 16) (Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, Ellen White Comments 7:971)
Question: Why Injunctions?
First injunction to Daniel - Comes as a result of Daniels eagerness to know of the Future, especially the TIME & EVENT.
