Top Highlights

“No doubt you have wondered about that phrase ‘bottomless pit.’ In Greek it is the word ‘abusos,’ from which we get the English word ‘abyss.’ It means a dark, empty, wilderness-like, chaotic condition. It doesn’t mean ‘a hole in the ground, a pit without a bottom to it.’ If you took that literally, you’d have a hole going clear through the earth, wouldn’t you? You be able to see the Chinese looking in the other side! No, there is no bottomless hole in the ground. The word abyss is the same word that is used in the first chapter of Genesis, in the Greek version of the Scriptures where it says, ‘the earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep.’ The same word was used to describe this world before it was created—before God made order out of chaos.” (Page 177)

“Let the Bible interpret itself by comparing Scripture with Scripture. Line up all of the passages you can find that talk about that prophecy or text and you will discover that they will all point in the same direction, to the one truth of God’s word.” (Pages 6–7)

“Do what the Bible says. Don’t ask me what to do when you know what the Bible says. That’s putting me ahead of the Word of God. Don’t ask any man what to do when the Bible tells you plainly what God’s will is for you.’” (Page 20)

“The Book of Revelation refers or alludes to the Old Testament over 600 times. That means that you must have some understanding of the Old Testament before you can understand the deeper mysteries of Revelation.” (Page 4)

“Turn to Ezekiel 22:26 and we read, ‘Her priests do violence to my law and profane my holy things, they do not distinguish between the holy and the common; they teach that there is no difference between the unclean and the clean, and they shut their eyes to the keeping of my Sabbaths, so that I am profaned among them.’ And in verse 31 we read how God feels about these preachers: ‘So I will pour out my wrath on them and consume them with my fiery anger …’ You see, God is going to destroy those preachers that fail to distinguish between the clean and the unclean, those who fail to tell the people what is right and what is wrong.” (Page 123)
