This Little Book treats upon the first principles of the faith, as revealed in this Visitation by that Spirit of truth, spoken of to be sent in this the day of Visitation to guide in the way of all truth and show things to come. This Spirit of truth is for the life of the body, soul and spirit; and a full and complete redemption and restoration of Israel, who have been scattered among both Jew and Gentile, but who must now be gathered according to the Scripture, which says, The Lord hath set his hand the second time to recover the remnant of his people Israel, and as Jesus said, Unto the Son of man shall they be gathered. Matt. 25-31, 32. As in the days of Noah and of Lot, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man. Luke 17, 26-28. And remember, there were two Ensigns spoken of: One unto which the Gentiles should seek (which was Jesus, a fountain filled with blood); but now another Ensign shall be lifted up, unto which the scattered tribes of Israel shall be gathered; and a fountain opened in the House of David. This is a cleansing fountain (Zech. 13-1) for the cleansing of the blood. Joel 3-21. In that day the House of David shall be as God. Zech. 12-8.
These mysteries of life and immortality were sealed since Cherubims were placed with flaming swords to keep the tree of life till Israel be gathered. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life; and these words spoken by him are Spirit and life. The Word has been sealed till this the time of the end and day of Visitation, when seven angels should sound in order. And when the Seventh Angel begins to sound, the mystery shall be finished, (Rev. 10-7,) and Israel gathered and redeemed. This Little Book is now open in the hand of the Angel Messenger - take it and eat it up. Rev. 10-9.
These brief statements found in this little booklet are but an invitation to send for literature, and prove all things, and hold to that which speaks according to law and testimony. In this Message you will find the keys that open up into the temple of wisdom.
BENJAMIN, A SERVANT OF GOD, WHO BEARS THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST, BY THE WILL OF GOD, ACCORDING TO THE PROMISE OF LIFE WHICH IS IN JESUS CHRIST, TO THE CHILDREN OF THE SAINTS SCATTERED ABROAD, GREETING.
BELOVEDS: We have a message for you, and we exhort -you by the mercies of God to earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered unto the Saints, which is the redemption of spirit, soul and body, which is the testimony of Jesus Christ. Therefore let us study to show ourselves approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth. Jude wrote to the saints concerning the common salvation, and he also exhorted them to earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered unto them. Paul often spoke of both the common faith and the great faith. The common faith is simply the salvation of the soul, by and through faith, common to both Jew and Gentile; while the great faith is the redemption of the body without death, promised to Israel, who are now to receive it; and their mortal bodies will be kept alive, (Rom. 8-23,) and their mortal bodies will put on immortality. The common faith is a way so plain, the wayfaring man, though a fool, may not err therein; but great is the mystery of the redemption of the body - God manifest in the flesh, which was sealed till the time of the end. Daniel 12. Broad is the way that leadeth to destruction - i.e., to the destruction of the body in the grave; but narrow is the way that leadeth to life, (i.e., the life of the body,) and a few there be that find it. The 144,000 will find it. Notwithstanding, many that went the broad way, having their bodies destroyed, will receive the resurrection of the soul. Remember, John saw them - a great company that no man could number, which come up in the first resurrection, washed in the blood of the Lamb.
