Book of Truth: Commentary, Part 1


  
                

The Book of Truth, Volume 1 Page 1, paragraph 1: 
This begins quoting the book of Revelations chapter 7, verse 2 thus:
    [" After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth holding back the four winds of the earth so that no wind could blow on land or sea or against any tree.  Then I saw another angel come up from the East, holding the Seal of the Living God.  He cried out in a loud voice to the four angels who were given power to damage the land and the sea, 'Do not damage the land or the sea or the trees until we put the seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God.'"]

This quotation does not come from the Douay-Rheims Bible. So let us see how it reads using the Douay-Rheims Bible:  
Book of Revelations Chapter 7, verses 2-3:
[" 2And I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the sign of the living God; and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, 3Saying: Hurt not the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees, till we sign the servants of our God in their foreheads." ] (underline, red and bold enhancement by us)

Instead of just verse 2, the quotation runs through verse 3.  

Clearly written in the Bible, the seal of the living God is to be placed by the angel of God on the foreheads of the servants of God.

However, the author of the Book of Truth just made a drawing of something and colored it with a blood-like hue and printed it on cardboard, then called the cardboard the seal of the living God, then distributes the cardboard to be taped on the doors of houses as a seal of protection.  

Obviously, good people want to be numbered among the servants of God who would receive the seal of the living God but it is necessary to remember and reflect that in the Bible, only the angel of God is given the task of putting the sign of the living God on the foreheads of the servants of God. No human being could put that seal on his own forehead. Only God elects who will receive the seal through the angel.  

At the risk of being redundant, let us ask if a door is the same as the forehead.  And then also let us ask if the angel in the Revelations will be putting a cardboard drawing of a blood-colored seal on the forehead of the servants of God.
