How long can we keep saying that Christ's return is right upon us? Why are we still here? Is the Second Coming of Jesus contingent upon what we do? Or will God finish the gospel work without us? Will there come a time after which He will wait no longer? Comparing the Exodus and Advent movements, Morris Venden draws out the parallels between the experiences of the two groups of people. He shows the secrets of spiritual strength, of dependence on God. What mistakes did ancient Israel make after the Exodus? What lessons do God's ancient people have to teach us from their experience in the desolate wilderness of Sinai?
Morris L. Venden (1932, Portland, Oregon) was a Seventh-day Adventist preacher, teacher and author. He was also a member of the Voice of Prophecy team as an associate speaker. He married with Marilyn and had three children: Lee, Lynn and LuAnn. He died at the age of 80 in College Place, Washington.
The parallels are unparalleled in history and reading this book in conjunction with Genesis, Exodus, and Patriarchs and Prophets is truly mind boggling and simultaneously enlightening! (Read Revelation for the spoiler and to see how the OT covenant plays out.)
