The light that God has given and will continue to give on the food question is to be to His people today what the manna was to the children of Israel. The manna fell from heaven, and the people were told to gather it, and prepare it to be eaten. So in the different countries of the world, light will be given to the Lord’s people, and health foods suited to thee countries will be prepared." CDF 269

Manna – "He who gives skill and understanding to His people I one part of the world will give skill and understanding to His people in other parts of the world. It is His design that the food treasures of each country shall be so prepared that they can be used in the countries for which they are suited. As God gave manna from heaven to sustain the children of Israel, so He will not give His people in different places skill and wisdom to use the productions of these countries in preparing foods to take the place of meat." CDF 267-268

Mark of the Beast – "But Christians of past generations observed the Sunday, supposing that in so doing they were keeping the Bible Sabbath; and there are now true Christians I every church, not excepting the roman Catholic communion, who honestly believe that Sunday is the Sabbath of divine appointment. God accepts their sincerity of purpose and their integrity before Him. But when Sunday observance shall be enforced by law, and the world shall be enlightened concerning the obligation of the true Sabbath, then whoever shall transgress the command of god, to obey a precept which has no higher authority than that of Rome, will thereby honor popery above God. He is paying homage to Rome and to the power which enforces the institution ordained by Rome. He is worshipping the beast and his image. As men then reject the institution which god has declared to be the sign of His authority, and honor in its stead that which Rome has chosen as the token of her supremacy, they will thereby accept the sign of allegiance to Rome—"the mark of the beast." And it is not until the issue is thus plainly set before the people, and they are brought to choose between the commandments of god and the commandments of men, that those who continue in transgression will receive "the mark of the beast." GC 449

Genesis 4:15. We have little information as to precisely what the mark of Cain was but we do have hints as to the spiritual nature of the mark. It appears from the Spirit of Prophecy that the mark was a sign of Cain's character and that it was visible to the judgment of spiritual discernment. CO

"The blood of Christ and of the disciples, whom they had put to death, was upon them, and they were visited with terrible judgments. The curse of God followed them, and they were a byword and a derision to the heathen and to so-called Christians. They were degraded, shunned, and detested, as if the brand of Cain were upon them. Yet I saw that God had marvelously preserved this people and scattered them over the world that they might be looked upon as specially visited by the curse of God..." EW 213

Marriage – "In both the Old and the New Testament, the marriage relation is employed to represent the tender and sacred union that exists between Christ and His people.

Meekness- "That meekness which Jesus blessed, operates amid the scenes of domestic life; it makes the home happy, it provokes no quarrels, gives back no angry answers, but soothes the irritated temper, and diffuses a gentleness which is felt by all within its charmed circle. It calms the inflammable spirit of retaliation, and mirrors forth the character of Christ." MB 16-17

Meekness – "The meek are guided by the Lord, because they are teachable, willing to be instructed. They have a sincere desire to know and to do the will of God." PP 384

Millenium – A period of a thousand years that starts after the second coming of Jesus. During this period of time the righteous living and the righteous dead have been translated, and resurrected respectively, and taken to heaven with Jesus. During this period of time the wicked have all been slain and remain unburied for the thousand years. During this same period the saints are in heaven with Jesus participating in the judgment. When the thousand years are finished then Jesus, His city, and His Saints will return to earth. When He returns He will resurrect the wicked dead to face judgment. When the judgment is completed God will destroy the wicked, satan and his angels, and this earth. Then He will recreate the heavens and the earth and we will see the creation with our own eyes. CO

1. Satan bound for a thousand years. Satan bound by a chain in that he can not tempt or deceive anybody for there is no one alive on earth for a thousand years. After the thousand years the second resurrection will occur and then satan will have the unrepentant wicked to tempt. Revelation 20:1-3.
2. At the second coming the wicked, those not written in the book of life (Revelation 13:8; 17:8; 20:15) are slain by the brightness of the Lord Jesus. II Thessalonians 2:8
3. The righteous dead are resurrected and taken up into the air with Jesus. I Thessalonians 4:16-18
4. The righteous living will be translated without seeing death and they will be caught up in the air with the righteous dead. I Corinthans 15:51; I Thessalonians 4:15-17
5. The wicked dead remain in the grave until the thousand years are finished. Revelation 20:5; John 5:28-29. The second resurrection is the resurrection of the damned.
6. At the second coming the 7^th plague will destroy all the cities, the earth quake will cause the mountains to sink and the islands to sink. Revelation 16:17-21. Those who survive this will be destroyed with the sword of His mouth and the brightness of His coming. Revelation 19:21. The dead of the earth will be all over the earth and will not be buried. Jeremiah 25:30-33. The earth will be without form and void. Jeremiah 4:23-27

8. We know that the saints go to heaven because of the destruction of the earth. The earth is without form and void after the second coming of Jesus. Jeremiah 4:23-27; There is no light in the heavens Jeremiah 4:23; the dead are strewn over the face of the earth and are not gathered or buried Jeremiah 4:27; 25:33. The earth is described by Isaiah as turned upside down. Isaiah 24:1. This is in addition to the mighty earthquake described in Revelation 16:17-20 and Jeremiah 4:24,26,27. In addition the Bible describes the goal of God’s people to go to a heavenly land and a heavenly Jerusalem. Hebrews 11:8-10, 13-16; Galatians 4:24-26
9. While in heaven with Jesus in heaven they will function as priests with Jesus. Revelation 20:6. During this time they will be involved with the judgment of the wicked people and angels.

The saints will evaluate their cases so that the saints will have no questions as to why one person made it and another did not make it.
10. After the thousand years are completed the saints and the holy city come to earth. Revelation 21:2; 20:9
11. The wicked are resurrected and satan tempts them to attack the holy city. Revelation 20:5,7-9 The resurrection of the wicked is the event that breaks the chain that binds satan. He now how someone to tempt. This also shows that satan’s character has not changed even after a thousand years of meditation. Revelation 22:11

Positive Mind:

Mind of Christ- Phil 2:5- "So the soul dead in trespasses and sins received life through connection with Christ. By faith in Him as a personal Saviour the union is formed. The sinner unites his weakness to Christ's strength, his emptiness to Christ's fullness, his frailty to Christ's enduring might. Then he has the mind of Christ." DA 675

Mingled – to mix:

(Ereb-a mixture or a mongrel race-Strongs Concordance) The mixed multitude Exodus 12:38; Numbers 11:4; Nehemiah 13:3; the mingled peoples Jeremiah 25:20-24; 50:37; Ezekiel 30:5.

The holy people with the pagan. Ezra 9:2

Wine with gall/myrrh. Matthew 27:34; Mark 15:23

Hail mingled with fire and blood. Exodus 9:24; Revelation 8:7

Sea of glass mingled with fire. Revelation 15:2

See League, Mixed.

Ministry- true- "To reach the people, wherever they are, and whatever their position or condition, and to help them in every way possible, this is true ministry." MH 156

Ministry - "...Ministry does not consist alone in preaching. Those minister who relieve the sick and suffering, helping the needy, speaking words of comfort to the desponding and those of little faith. Nigh and afar off are souls weighed down by a sense of guilt. It is not hardship, toil, or poverty that degrades humanity. It is guilt, wrongdoing. This brings unrest and dissatisfaction. Christ would have His servants minister to sin-sick souls." DA 822

Miracles – "In feeding the five thousand, Jesus lifts the veil from the world of nature, and reveals the power that is constantly exercised for our good. In the production of earth’s harvests God is working a miracle every day. Through natural agencies the same work is accomplished that was wrought in the feeding of the multitude. Men prepare the soil and sow the seed, but it is the life from God that causes the seed to germinate. It is God’s rain and air and sunshine that cause it to put for, "first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear." Mark 4:28. It is God who is every day feeding millions from earth’s harvest fields. Men are called upon to co-operate with God in the care of the grain and the preparation of the loaf, and because of this they lose sight of the divine agency. They do not give God the glory due unto His holy name. The working of His power is ascribed to natural causes or to human instrumentality. Man is glorified in place of God, and His gracious gifts are perverted to selfish uses, and made a curse instead of a blessing. God is seeking to change all this. He desires that our dull senses shall be quickened to discern His merciful kindness and to glorify Him for the working of His power. He desires us to recognize Him in His gifts, that they may be, as he intended, a blessing to us. It was to accomplish this purpose that the miracles of Christ were performed." DA 367-368

Miracles – "The mighty miracles in Egypt (plagues) and at the Red Sea were designed to establish faith in Him as the invisible, all-powerful Helper of Israel, the only true God." PP 316

Miracles – " The angels of God are ever passing from earth to heaven, and from heaven to earth. The miracles of Christ for the afflicted and suffering were wrought by the power of God through the ministration of the angels…" DA 143

Miracles – "Every miracle that Christ performed was a sign of His divinity. He was doing the very work that had been foretold of the Messiah; but to the Pharisees these works of mercy were a positive offense. The Jewish leaders looked with heartless indifference on human suffering. In many cases their selfishness and oppression had caused the affliction that Christ relieved. Thus His miracles were to them a reproach.

That which led the Jews to reject the Saviour’s work was the highest evidence of His divine character. The greatest significance of His miracles is seen in the fact that they were for the blessing of humanity. The highest evidence that He came from God is that His life revealed the character of God. He did the works and spoke the words of God. Such a life is the greatest of all miracles.

When the message of truth is presented in our day, there are many who, like the Jews, cry, Show us a sign. Work us a miracle. Christ wrought no miracle at the demand of the Pharisees. He wrought no miracle in the wilderness in answer to Satan’s insinuations. He does not impart to us power to vindicate ourselves or to satisfy the demands of unbelief and pride. But the gospel is not without a sign of its divine origin. Is it not a miracle that we can break from the bondage of Satan? Enmity against Satan is not natural to the human heart; it is implanted by the grace of God. When one who has been controlled by a stubborn, wayward will is set free, and yields himself wholeheartedly to the drawing of God’s heavenly agencies, a miracle is wrought; so also when a man who has been under strong delusion comes to understand moral truth. Every time a souls is converted, and learns to love God and keep His commandments, the promise of God is fulfilled, "A new heart also will I give you and a new spirit will I put within you." Ezekiel 36:26. The change in human hearts, the transformation of human characters, is a miracle that reveals an ever-living Saviour, working to rescue souls. A consistent life in Christ is a great miracle. In the preaching of the word of God, the sign that should be manifest now and always is the presence of the Holy Spirit, to make the word a regenerating power to those that hear. This is God’s witness before the world to the divine mission of His Son." DA 406-407

Miracle of miracles - "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." II Corinthians 5:17. Through the power of Christ, men and women have broken the chains of sinful habit. They have renounced selfishness. The profane have become reverent, the drunken sober, the profligate pure. Souls that have borne the likeness of Satan have become transformed into the image of God. This change is in itself the miracle of miracles. A change wrought by the Word, it is one of the deepest mysteries of the Word. We cannot understand it; we can only believe, as declared by the Scriptures, it is "Christ in you, the hope of glory." AA 476

Miracles – greater than – "Satan demanded of Christ a miracle as a sign of His divinity. But that which is greater than all miracles, a firm reliance upon a "Thus saith the Lord," was a sign that could not be controverted." DA 120

Missionary - "This woman (Samaritan women of John 4) represents the working of a practical faith in Christ. Every true disciple is born into the kingdom of God as a missionary. He who drinks of the living water becomes a fountain of life. The receiver becomes a giver. The grace of Christ in the soul is life a spring in the desert, welling up to refresh all, and making those who are ready to perish eager to drink of the water of life." DA 195

Mixed - mingling of substances.

Mixture of peoples - God is concerned about mixing Christians and Pagans for the mixture always leads to rebellion against God. Ezra 9:2; Exodus 12:38; Nehemiah 13:3; Hosea 7:1-10

Iron does not mix with miry clay - State not to mix with church. (4 BC 1168; Daniel 2:41-43

Error can be truth not mixed with faith. Hebrews 4:2

See Mingled.

Mortality states that without outside assistance life will end. Man is mortal. Job 4:17; Romans 6:12; 8:11; I Corinthians 15:53; II Corinthians 4:11; 5:4. Mortals seek immortality. Romans 2:7. Immortality only comes as a gift from God. Romans 6:23 and I Corinthians 15:42-57. God’s original intent was to maintain Adam and Eve by allowing them access to the Tree of Life on condition of obedience to His commandment about the Tree of knowledge of good and evil. Genesis 2:9,15-16 When they sinned this access was closed off. Genesis 3:22-24. God plans on restoring access to the Tree of Life when He brings His people to the New Jerusalem. Revelation 21:23-22:7. When God’s people are brought to heaven they will have received immortality as a gift and maintain it by access to the Tree of Life. I Corinthians 15:42-57; Romans 6:23; Revelation 22:1-7. CO

Moses - that prophet – "The rabbis continued their questioning: "Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?" The words "that prophet" had reference to Moses. The Jews had been inclined to the belief that Moses would be raised from the dead, and taken to heaven. They did not know that he had already been raised. When the Baptist began his ministry, many thought that he might be the prophet Moses risen from the dead, for he seemed to have a thorough knowledge of the prophecies and of the history of Israel."
