SECTION B: THE HARVEST

Hymn No. 21:

God began with only One Man

.

Origin: Zambia Division

Rod Quotation: TN8: 71.1-2

Tune: SDAH 359

♦-1-♦
God began with only one man,
He has hundreds at this time,
Soon He’ll have twenty-four thousand,
Spirit filled servants sublime.
Won’t you quickly come and join them:
The vanguard – first of first fruits?
Who from Israel are to gather,
The second of first fruit saints.

♦-2-♦
After the day of Reckoning,
The Eleventh hour church,
Will be free from foolish virgins,
And the wise will onward march.
How graceful is this map of truth,
Unfolded by Christ Jesus,
We will have one chosen shepherd,
Who will be king over us.

♦-3-♦
Judas, Achan and Abiram,
Will be trampled underfoot,
Since the Rod they have retarded,
In them, it cannot take root.
Loud and clear the Lord is calling,
Get ready, now pray and watch,
Christ is coming soon to reckon,
First with the Davidian church.

♦-4-♦
Though the work be slow at present,
‘Twill gain speed, the Lord declares,
The treading of lesser cattle,
Will get rid of all the tares.
Soon the vanguard workers of God,
In hundred and fifty days,
Will preach quickly to our brethren,
Thousands will amend their ways.

TN8: 71.1-2; Series page: 171:
As they “sent a message after Him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us,” the only conclusion admissible is that shortly before His return, Christ shall inform His “citizens” that He is taking “the reins in His own hands” to set up His kingdom, and that they, upon hearing the announcement, shall refuse to submit themselves to the one through whom He is to rule… Observe that in the message which they “sent after Him,” his servants did not say, “We will not have You to reign over us,” but rather, “we will not have this man to reign over us.” What they objected to was Christ’s reigning over them through someone else. Clearly, then, before He is coronated, and prior to His return to reckon with His servants, He appoints a “man” to reign over them in His stead. Whereupon they say to Him, by their attitude and stand toward His message, “We will not have this man to reign over us,” although “this man,” as we now see, is the antitypical David (the “simple means”), the visible king.
