THE GREAT WHITE BEAR
Or What Shall Come to Pass in the
Latter Days

Tot been able to boast of since the
lays of Moses.
But before they receive this great
power and before they are delivered,
The nations that invade Palestine viii
slay part of the people before their
Messiah intercedes for them as it is
written.
In the 14th chapter of Zechariah,
at the first verse, it goes
into detail little more and tells US
that their spoil shall be divided in the
midst of many.
"For / will gather all nations
against Jerusalem to battle, and the
city shall be taken, and the houses
rified, and the women ravished and
half of the city shall go into captiv-
ity, and the residue of the people
shall not be cut off from the city.
Then shall the Lord go forth and
fight against those nations as he
fought in the day of battle" (Then
a wonderful thing takes place.. "And
his feet shall stand at that day upon
the Mount of Olives, which is before
Jerusalem on the east, and the Mount
of Olives shall cleave in the midst
thereof toward the east, and toward
the west, and there shall be a very
great valley, and half of the noun
tain shall remove toward the north
and half of it toward the south.
"And yet shall flee to the valley Of
the mountains; for the valley of the
mountains shall reach unto Azal; yeI
shall fee, like as We fled before the
earthquake in the days of Uzziah
king of Judah: and the Lord my God
shall come, and all the saints with
thee.
"And it shall come to pass in that
day that the light shall not be clear
nor dark But it shall be one day
which shall be known unto the Lord,
not day nor night, but it shall come
to pass that at evening time it shall
be light.
"And it shall be at that day that
living waters shall go out from Jeru-
salem; half of them toward the form
er sea, and half of them toward the
hinder sea, in summer and in winter
shall it be-"
When the temple which is describ-
ed in Ezekiel 90 to 44th chapters, Is
built in Jerusalem there will be an
altar in the center where all nations
must come once a year to have sac
rifices offered upon the altar.
These sacrifices will point back
ward to the sacrifice of the Lamb of
God, just as the sacrifices under the
Mosaic law pointed forward to his
sacrifice for the sins of the people.
From the altar on both sides living
waters will flow, half of them on one
side of the temple and half of them
on the other side, making two streams
coming from either side of the tenn
pie and then uniting and flowing into
the dead sea, healing the waters SO
that fish will live in it. Read Ezekiel
47:1 to II verses.
In Zechariah we are told that al
that day the Lord shall be king over
all the earth; in that day there shall
be one Lord and his name one.
Going back to Ezekiel, in the seth
chapter and 9Th verse, we read that
they shall be seven years burning the
implements of war, as it says:
"And they that dwell in the cities
of Israel shall go forth, and shall sci
on fire and burn the weapons, both
| A. .L:o1l, - Al h,,olrlaro tho b0xrys
and the arrows, and the handstave:
and the spears, and they shall burr
them with fire seven years"
- Then in the 18th and 18th verses
"And it shall come to pass in thai
day that / will give Cog place there
of graves in Israel, the valley of the
, passengers on the east of the sea
and it shall stop the noses of tbs
passengers: and there shall they bus!
! Cog and all his multitude: and the!
, shall call it the valley of Hamougog
!. "And seven months shall the hous'
of Israel be burying of them, tina
they may cleanse the land"
And the rest of this chapter is yer.
: interesting if one wishes to read il
f as it gives a great many details o
$ how the great army will be dispose
n of and will prove beyond a doubt +
+ the Jews who rejected their Messial
n and said we will not have this ma
z to rule over us, and gave him over Z
+ the Roman soldiers to be crucifieC
@ that their fathers were mistaken
9 that he is really the king that Go
r has chosen for them. 1t will be
o great revelation to them, as thei
r eyes at the present time are blinde
d to Gods plan of salvation, and nc
v only the Jewish people, but the ns
d lions in general. According to tn
r Prophet jeremiah, 10Th chapter an
4 18th verse, these are the words:
@ 80 Lord, my strength, and m
h fortress, and my refuge in the day c
: affection, the nations shall com
: unto thee from the ends of the eartl
o and shall say, surely our father
have inherited lies, and things wher'
in there is no profit"
