<font size="3">Through this outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon these
Chinese children much light was thrown upon the writing of the Word
of God.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="center"><font size="3"><b>Prophecy
Fulfilled</b></font></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">Such an outpouring of the Spirit, attended with such
supernatural manifestations, is in itself a testimony that the Bible
was written by God. He alone knows the future. <b>Fulfilled prophecy</b>
was, in the mind of Christ and the apostles, sufficient proof of the
hand of God in the writing of the Scriptures.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;"><font size="3">In
what we have recorded about this outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon
these children, ten prophecies of the Scriptures were fulfilled: (1)
such a baptism was prophesied for believers of the present age; (2)
it was to be accompanied by speaking in unknown languages and by (3)
prophesying as the Spirit gave utterance. (4) In fulfillment of
prophecy these children were shown “the things of Christ.” (5)
The reality of “things to come” was also shown them. (6) True to
prophecy, they were “born again” of the Holy Spirit, receiving
the witness in their hearts crying, “Abba Father.” (7) The
visions seen by these children fulfilled the written Word that in the
last days “young men shall see visions.” (8) Demons were cast
out, and (9) the sick were miraculously healed, just as the Bible
said they might be, by the power of the Holy Spirit. (10) A
miraculous change took place so that things once loved were hated and
things once hated were loved.</font></p>

Ignorant Confound the Wise</b></font></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">It is to be recalled that, according to the Bible, the
revelations of God and the writings of the Scriptures are independent
of natural ability or of acquired education. An un-educated Amos, or
Peter, or John, inspired by God, wrote more profoundly than the
wisest of this world.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">In what the Lord has done and revealed to these despised
and outcast beggar boys and girls, can we not see a proof of the Word
of God? While “not many wise after the flesh, not many mighty”
follow the old-fashioned, narrow way of simple faith in God, He still
can and does choose these “that are despised,” even these simple
Chinese children of the streets and gutters, to “bring to naught
the things that are” supposed to be so learned and wise, in this
age of godless reason and worldly knowledge.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">While the wise of this learned (?), proud and
stiff-necked generation that resists the simple Word go on groping
around in the darkness of their own self-sufficient delusions, it
must be true in this day, as in the past, that in the midst of so
much confusing of man's wisdom, Jesus can still say, <b>“I thank
You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You did hide these
things from the wise and understanding, and did reveal them unto
babes” (Matthew 11:25).</b></font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">As a whole, the educated and the rulers of the days of
Christ did not understand His miraculous works and life, or <b>“they
would not have crucified the Lord of Glory” (1 Corinthians 2:8).
</b>The rulers and the educated of the days of the apostles did not
understand the miraculous working of Almighty God through simple men
endued with the the power of the Holy Spirit, or they would not have
killed the Spirit-filled saints of the early Church. The profound
revelations to these Chinese children “not having learned” in the
schools of worldly letters, is a corroboration of the written word of
God that it came, as it claims to have come, through open-hearted men
independent of natural ability or acquired education.</font></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">Some clear light was thrown on the way Bible writers
might have had an eye-witness knowledge of events already past. One
of our naturally most ignorant and untalented boys was, on more than
one occasion when “in the Spirit,” an eye witness of the
principal historical events of the Old and New Testaments. He saw the
plagues of Egypt: the frogs in the King's palace, the flies in
Pharaoh's food, the locusts, the eldest son dead with the whole
family in consternation. He also saw Elijah and Elisha cross the
Jordan, the chariots of fire, and Elijah's ascension. Daniel was seen
in the lion's den with his angel guard, and other Old Testament
events were likewise seen.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">This boy was also given visions of the miracles of
Christ. He saw the temptations of the Lord. The devil in the form of
a handsome young man led the Lord to a high mountain and in vision
showed Him the Kingdoms of the world. Angels followed Jesus wherever
He went. There were visions of Christ walking on the water, healing
the sick, and opening the eyes of the blind. This boy and others saw
the passion of the Lord Jesus, His resurrection, and His ascension.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">At first I wondered at these visions of past events. I
then remembered that with God there is no “past,” “present,”
and “future.” He is the Great <b>I AM.</b> All things are alike
present with Him. Since the Holy Spirit is His Spirit, by visions and
His revelations of the Spirit, “past,” “present,” and
“future” may, in God's economy, be made “present” to any
individual to whom the Lord chooses to make such revelations.</font></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">These revelations of the past to Adullam corroborate the
inspiration of the Bible. It was easy for God to take Moses and
others by visions through events already past or through future
events as an eye witness sees present events and for them to be able
to record the past, the present, and the future in the one and only
book that records the end from the beginning and the beginning from
the end. </font>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">The Holy Spirit showed us by <b>illustration</b> how
some parts of the Bible became divine records of supernatural
revelations. When the children were “in the Spirit,” describing
scenes they were seeing in vision, the Spirit caused one boy, who was
also in a trance lost “in the Spirit,” to sit down and go through
the motions of writing item by item what the others were seeing and
describing. Thus anyone should be able to see how easy it was for God
to write a Bible. One could record what another saw and described.</font></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">If God can now take an ignorant, illiterate beggar boy
from a dirty Chinese street, or a half wild little tribes boy from a
remote mountain solitude, can fill him with the Holy Spirit, and have
him “in the Spirit” escorted by angels see as an eye witness the
things beyond the veil - things of the present, things of the past,
things to come - has it not always been just as easy for God by
visions to reveal everything that is written in the Bible to any
vessel of His choosing and have a Barak sit by his side to write just
what was seen and revealed, recording word for word any and every
prophecy just as it came from the Lord God?</font></p>

<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">If our boys can be caught into the presence of the Lord
and come back saying, “The Lord said,” could not prophets of old
even record their own prophecy or visions and say with absolute
truth, “Thus says the Lord?”</font></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">How God, with whom past, present, and future is all the
same, can reveal past, present,and future events as <b>present</b>
events, I do not know. The Bible says he can. The Bible says He did.
Adullam knows He still does.</font></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">If men ever spoke in prophecy as they were moved by the
Holy Spirit, if men were ever “in the Spirit on the Lord's Day”
and caught up to heaven; if men were ever given visions “in the
year King Uzziah died;” they can still be moved upon by the Holy
Spirit and prophesy. They can still be caught away “in the Spirit”
and see the unseen worlds beyond the veil. They can still see visions
any number of years after King Uzziah died.</font></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">

<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<font size="3">Since God does now in this day reveal Himself through
prophecy, vision, and revelations - as He is revealing Himself all
around the world - he has, therefore, revealed Himself just as the
Bible says He did in days of old to the prophets and saints.</font></p>

immediately someone gave me a copy of “Visions Beyond the Veil”.
