Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Readers, Hilmar, CA.
January 2, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine.
My dear Ross and Lillian:
Thanks for yours. Glad you are able to get in touch with others which helps. But the greater need is to let the water flow to others who need to hear, rather than drinking it in only. A river is a flowing thing in the low part of the land, and so our job is to let it out to others, if we expect the Spirit to dwell in and speak by us which gives us such more direct help than in hearing others--There is always the danger of our human selfish nature operating in keeping us from being channels and no amount of excuse can supply our lack of effort directed by the Spirit in seeking to bear His Witness to all men.
Eddie Jack was a [heroic --------] worth seeking to imitate in the interest he had from first to last and his desire at all times to be helpful. His letters were a joy to read and specially so when we know his suffering for 4 years, from T.B. and away from all natural human care by his own people - I could wish for more of the same marks in many others for their own sake.
Jesus said He was anointed to preach the Gospel to those who were the debris of the religious world. Poor, broken-hearted, prisoners, blind and bruised - He simply said He was seeking pearls in the rubbish can of the religious world and had no use for the righteous. So we may often pass by people who are the very sort today we might find ready to eat and drink of the living bread and water from heaven. As we go to have fellowship with those who have eaten and drunk. So aim at giving freely and fully to all men what has been given fully and freely to you. For the Spirit in us can be grieved and hindered by our own selfish desire for more privilege. You will always feel more refreshed in [pain?- going?] this [b -an?] having to much to help ourselves and enjoy with little care for those who have no hope and no help. Even to witness to those who resist the Spirit will be refreshing to us. Read Acts 7 and see what one plain, honest, simple man could say and be. Before the great resisters who are but the Seed of Cain in our day. So aim at serving God by letting the Spirit bear witness thru us to others. God will take care of both ---recepters and resisters.
My Love in Him.
Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter to: Mary Ball and Bros., Aberdeen, Wash.
January 2, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My Dear Mrs. Ball and Bros.:
Thanks for yours (4/12/34). I had heard of your husband's passing. I have a number of friends who have been very whole-hearted for the Man and Message of God from The Throne by the Spirit given freely to all who will hear and obey. They all left a good witness behind them. I can't see any difference whether people are here on the earth as His witnesses, or waiting to return with Him when he comes to reign. If the body is used up, it's merciful they should go, rather than suffer on.
I'm sure your husband had many longing desires for John to come from Heaven, and the Manchild be brought forth, but there are many who suffer in lesser forms who have the same desire, and my great joy is, that day will come, and we will all be more than satisfied in every sense of the word.
If your house took fire, would you not get out? So when the old body is consumed with disease it's but natural for the Spirit to get out. But it don't change the heart attitude to God and all who are of God. Your husband's dying wish was like what the Spirit in every man would desire once their eyes have been opened to see the awful sham and hypocrisy carried on by the Hireling and his victims. They love to have funeral, birth or marriage as part of their power and opportunity to deceive the people. This is true in all the religious of the world. Mr. Fixens advice was good, and it allowed them to carry thru their vain show, to please the eyes and ears of men, rather than God.
Read Luke 16 and see how clearly Jesus shows what takes place at death. It only opens our eyes to see the reality of Heaven and Hell, the one tormented in remembering his big time as a preacher, and the other finding the comfort of Abram's bosom. Can we doubt the Lord claiming His own, and the torment of disappointment and remorse. I have not one doubt about the result of men having ear and heart for God, finding God having ears and heart for all such.
I suffer because I know the time is not yet for Rev. 12 being fulfilled.
My Love and assurance that He will care for you,
Wm. Irvine

My Dear Hulls, Boys and Frank:
Thanks for you Birthday letters, which came on 3rd, and was very cheering. I enjoyed your contrast between your 3 boys, and those you visited. And one can see the fruit of the 2 trees in the Garden. All human nature and Devil influence, is to get and keep for our own selfish purposes. God has no pleasure in but giving. God so loved He gave His Son, is not an accident depending on our sins, but the natural expression of all that He is. Jesus so loved He gave himself a Sacrifice expressing the nature of God in all He was, said, did and suffered. The Spirit on the earth dwelling in peoples who bear the same lowly slave marks of Jesus's suffering and sacrificing, that God's name and nature may be manifested to selfish human beings, and witness against the angel who became Devil, in ceasing to serve God and man in this way, and so fell by his pride and iniquity, to being selfseeking and centered in all he says and does, and encourages in humans.
So the whole R.P.& E. world seeks knowledge and gifts of God, to create opportunity for selfishness in His name. Eve and Adam and the Serpent reveal this, for the Serpent appealed to Eves selfishness. She saw the Tree forbidden, was good for food, pleasant to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise in human eyes. So the R.P. & E. influence in the world, is of the same nature.
God has nothing to get, and everything to give, and His only pleasure is in finding such as will get into line with His purpose, not tanks, or Dams or Bogs, but Living channels, living by which He gives freely, and giving as freely as we receive. All human restraints or excuses, but hinder the flow.
The Devil and all thats human, are getters. All who are of God - givers. So this is the Kingdom of God, or the Nature of those who are truly living by what God gives. You can see that all the R.P. & E. influence in the world, is like a hindering and limiting of what God can be and desires to be, to all His creatures. Even those who hear the Message, often wreck on the idea on what they can get- rather than on what they can be as His channels of Life to the Dead smitten world. So the wide gate and broad way of being a getter in the things of God, is where many fail to benefit in the coming Kingdom. You can see all these limitations will be taken away.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
You can see in the Pentecostal movement, they all tell and testify to what God gives them rather than in being made channels of Water of Life. So one can soon see where they are, and the crowding together and big manifestation, is all proof they are of the same old serpent stock in the Garden. You can soon find out if people you meet can be channels, or are stopped from either hear or saying to others. So to hear and obey, is a perfect Test for all who are channels from God to man. W.I.

P. O. Box 696
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Don.
Thanks for yours. The M.O. came alright, and you need not be ashamed to let P.O. or any other know what you do.
I am no man’s hireling, but have lived by the Gospel as Jesus did and all the true Apostles, and never asked, or needed to ask any one for money, or a meal in 42 years. Miss Munsell gave you a very good opportunity to give her the Truth as to the hireling method, and that of living by the Gospel, and you had a glorious opportunity of reading them Matt. 25: and showing the Sheep care for the Man who is Least, and the Goats for their own hirelings. Don’t be too sensitive to criticism, and always keep in good humor rather than provoke, or resort to bitterness. To be wise as Serpents and harmless as doves is the wisdom of God to His Disciples.
It’s a great compliment to your masters to say they are real workers when the world is full of little else but bumming doling. Xmas was the hireling’s feast, but they would not have known the Man, Woman and Child Jesus in His day any more than they know the Man, Woman and Manchild in our day.
There is much talk about the New Star very bright shining over Bethlehem, which I see from my window. They claim the light from the star has taken 2,000 years to reach the Earth, and only now showing up in the Heavens. You can be sure that Isa. 64, 65 and 66 is more important than the star.
1943 has been a bad year of violence in Europe and other places, but drought, hurricane and floods have done more than the violence. All in the Plan and Purpose of God. Isa. 24 still holds, and is being fulfilled slowly but surely, and the Oven being heated for all who are proud and wicked doers. There are many signs of 1935 being worse than 1934, which is what all expect who believe the Message from the Throne.
Don’t fear to take the low place in all things. This is the mark of being conformed to the Image of His Son. All God accepts He sacrifices on the Altar of Service. Tho our old Adam nature will always cry out at our humiliation as it did on the Cross when Jesus cried, " My God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Much of our suffering comes from this source, and is always a temptation to us, to seek our own and save ourselves, feelings , honour etc. We have heard the Shepherd’s voice (The Spirit) and Message from the Throne, and can see it being fulfilled every day. So cheer up. Read Acts VII and see the conflict of all ages.
My love in Him.
Wm. Irvine
William Irvine's letter to Mrs. Beam
January 23, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Mrs. Beam:
Thanks for your sensible letter. Your position and Relationship I'm sure does not have one jot of condemnation in God's sight. Marriage is meant to protect us in our relationships, both as parents and children, and all my sympathies are with you in the position you are placed. So don't worry, for the old Babylonian reign will soon pass, and we will have a very different reign in righteousness. You have always noticed how tender Jesus was to those who were looked upon as law-breakers in the eyes of the Scribes and Pharisees, and never once did He suggest that their position or condition or relationship would hinder their getting the blessing of God.
The woman of John 4, is good, and the 8th chapter which tells of Mary who became the most wonderful disciple He had, and who washed His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and finally was the Mary who anointed His body against the day of His burial. Read up all these places, and see what a jewel she was.
Jesus said He was anointed to preach the Gospel to the poor and broken hearted prisoners, blind and bruised, who says now is the acceptable year of the Lord. These were the victims of the R.P.&E. world of that day, rejected and dishonored by the religious world, and it's the same today. The Spirit's Message is to the "outcasts" of the R.P.&E. world, in the streets and lanes of the cities, the highways and hedges.
Read Matthew 22, and see the marriage invitation of the King's Son. To hear the Spirit's Message, and obey it and give it to others, will give you Life, Light, Peace, Joy, Hope and Comfort, while the whole R.P.& E. world are finding their house falling on them.
Jesus said, "I came not to call the righteous (as they thought they were) but sinners to repentance." or turning to have confidence in God, and none in the R.P.& E. world's hypocrites. All their traditions were wrong, so today, they simply try to rob people of the of the love and great mercy of God, by their self-righteous interpretation of the Scriptures and the word of Jesus.
So let nothing worry you or hinder you from enjoying God's blessing for self and family and lover, which is the true foundation for marriage, rather than the priests words.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Smiths
January 30, 1935
My dear Smith Family:
Thanks for yours. Glad you are able to weather the storm of your wicked enemies. If you were to send your family to a cemetery to get educated, the world would look on you as a fool. But to send them to a dead man’s home in the things of God is considered wise by the world. Read Matt. 23 and see what Jesus said to the Synagogues of all times and their leaders and people. He called them whited sepulchres full of dead men’s bones. So you are not so crazy as you appear. The craziness is in those who are dead to God and don’t know it, but show it by their attitude to all who have ears to hear what the Spirit saith today as the Message from the Throne. Rev. 18 is very correct of God’s opinion of the whole R.P.& E. world. Read Acts 7 and see what they, the Scriptural Pharisee leaders, thought of Stephen who was the most Spirit-filled man in Jerusalem, and see what he said to them - as your fathers did, so do ye always resisting the Holy Spirit - and this is what we find in the whole Religious World. We have now their children to face as we witness in the Spirit.
The Serpent and all his seed have always stood in the way of every man who ever had the Spirit of God come to dwell in him, which is the true mark of Christians. People who think knowing the Scriptures is knowing God, is the mark of the unregenerate devil possessed of every age from Cain to your preacher, and they are always high in reputation in the world, but full of iniquity and hypocrisy. Some get angry at any man whose hope is in God and those who have ears and eyes to see, by God’s working in them.
I notice you have 105 degrees of frost recorded in Iroquis Falls in Ontario and very cold all over the States with floods in Mississippi and 170 dead in U.S.A. and Canada. England and Europe have had very bad storms. So I expect 1935 will be worse than 1934. There is some talk of war between Russia and Japan in the day’s papers. You can be quite sure that God, Jesus and the Spirit witness on the earth will all be fulfilled and no escape possible of those who will not accept His Message. Isa. 61 shows it is either accept and be accepted of God or get the vengeance of God because of their attitude to Him, and we see the work of Judgment going on every day and everywhere.
My love and best wishes for the whole family in 1935.
Yours in Him,
Wm. Irvine
William Irvine's Letter to Don Symington, Canada
February 5, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Don:
Thanks for 12 from you. Today's letter was in good healthy tone, and I am glad you have a master who can make you useful and efficient, which is not common today.
I am sure you enjoy seeing your work prosper in your hands, such as Abram, Isaac, and Jacob, though they were God's chosen and anointed in their days and whom we look on as samples in their faith, fellowship and obedience to God. There is always a tendency to think that human inefficiency is what it means to be least and little ones, when it should be the very opposite.
I was in a hurry crossing Glasgow's busiest street one day, and leaving a friend I was rushing across and ran into a man square on, and of course felt annoyed till I found he was nearly blind, and so the greater need for me not to run into him. And so we often run into people and forget or fail to see they are blind to all we call the light of Life.
So we need wisdom, grace, patience, and horse sense in dealing with all who never before probably had a word by the Spirit to awaken and cause them to stop, look, and listen. And when we find the light which is in them is darkness, so long as they are willing to hear the Spirit, give them what is the offer of Life. It takes grace to wait a wee while and see how things work out. We have little hope for the people who are satisfied with the religious world. Jesus said He was not sent to the righteous, but to sinners and the poor, heart-broken prisoners, blind and bruised--or those who were the victims of the religious scribe and phariseeism of that time. Luke 4 and Matt. 22 and Isaiah 55 are very simple and clear. But people have been drugged into believing that the so-called church can be some help to them, when it only tends to hinder them, even thinking their own human thots and make them religious imitators.
1935 has been very severe weather all over the world, very cold snowy heavy winds, sleet and hail. Since Jan. 1st we have had about 40 deaths by flood in a small country and population of 4 million. We have 16 in. rain which is the best since 1914. Past four years has been very dry. I expect no matter how it appears, 1935 will prove to have more of the vengeance of God in the spirit registers than 1934. For it's bound to go on to finish since we know it has begun.
My love to all there,
Wm. Irvine
William Irvine's Letter to Norm and Charlotte Morgan
March 12, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Charlotte,
Thanks for yours. To be purified, made white and tried that we may understand His purpose and plan and share in it for these days is a bigger job than at first appears. And who can choose the method which must be according to our needs and for our perfecting. And I'm sure everyone who enjoys this privilege whines more or less at what rebuke and chastening comes. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be zealous, therefore, and repent, or cease from all that needs rebuke and chastening.
Read the message to the Laodicean Church which is the last of the 7 - Rev. 3:12 to 21. Chastening and rebuke are always grievous, but the results are all glorious, when it ends in His purpose being accomplished, even at the wrecking of our human hopes.
Don't measure by your relationship to Norman, - but to Him who is the Eternal Bridegroom who alone supplies all the deepest needs of our existence. The child does not exist who welcomes the chastening rod, -- even from the truest parent or guide. But the crime wave is the comment on sparing the rod and spoiling the child. There can be none such in the Kingdom and fellowship of God. Whom the Lord loveth , he chasteneth and scourges, - every one whom He receives. So your needs are being well attended to in all that has and is happening, if you look at it from God's standpoint; and both have had a chance to correct and benefit in our relationship to the Trinity.
Flesh and blood is always a treacherous and traitorous material, when it comes to the claims of God. And you can be sure that those who have a place of honour in His family and Kingdom have all been through the fire of purifying, making white and trying them to see if they have benefitted and got victory over all that hinders us from letting God's will be done. Many say, "Thy will be done," but when tried, mourn, whine, and sulk, when offered what is eternal value and glorious, in contrast to all the world has to offer.
So cheer up, and look up more than look around at the chaos, confusion and darkness, which fills the earth today, as never before.
My Love to Mother, self, and all others who have ears to hear,
Wm. Irvine.
You forgot to put address on letter. I don't keep envelope addresses. W.I.
William Irvine's Letter to Vandeventers, Los Angeles, Calif.
March 20, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My Dear Vandeventers:-
Thanks for yours (2) Photos which are good. Don't measure by your avoirdupois, some of the short light men of all ages have left their mark on the world more than the heavy & tall. Dr. Isaac Watts a small man heard another express surprise at him being so small & yet eminent as a false prophet & replied
Were I as tall as reach the pole,
Or grasp the ocean in a Span,
Man must be measured by his Soul--
The mind's the Standard of the man.
Apostle Paul was a short man weak in appearance & tender eyes but when you read his epistles he was mighty by the Spirit in him and left a mark 2nd only to Jesus in that day & now to be least or little ones in these days bearing the witness of the Spirit is the greatest qualification a man can have and they will be remembered when all the proud and wicked doers on the earth are ashes under the soles of our feet.
Your very insignificance in men's eyes only helps to keep you in condition for God to honour your words. The greatest men of all history in men's eyes have been flooding the world since 1918 with peace and safety cackle, no more war & no more bands & cords to bind the Nations, but the Macon and Ackron were but signs in the sky of God writing doom for all the Nations as in Dan. V was written the doom of the Babylon long ago, and now the doom of the great Babylon of today.
Germany by her declaration of her 1/2 million Army is the answer to all the kings and rulers attempts since 1918 and the sign that they have only been a joke and a laugh to God and who are of God today on the earth. The ntions are troubled and trembling as they see what's coming and wailing for all who bear the marks of Mal. IV-1, who will be under our feet as ashes when the purpose of God has been fulfilled.
Live by God as written and revealed and rejoice that you have rock to walk on when others are sinking in the shifting sands of men's vapouring and imaginings.
My Love to both & the children & all who are His Spirit dwellings and witness today.
Wm. Irvine.
William Irvine's Letter to Ackersons, Modesto, Calif.
April 6, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Ackersons:
Thanks for yours (2) and M.O., they only give you receipt there. It comes very safely, they changed the method as many cases of forgery took place under the old way, through people getting others letters and forging the names.
Mal. 4: shows the two sides, the fire for the proud and wicked who will not hear or fear and obey and the sunlight of a new day for all who fear, hear and obey bearing the marks of Mal. 3:. Matt. 22 shows who there is hope for today, Matt. 23 whom the woes are for. Matt. 24 how and why, and the conflict between the meek who fear and hear and those who are the enemy and resist the Spirit in past 20 years. Matt. 25 shows the use made of the Message by those who hear - one to find room for the Spirit to come in and dwell and freedom to witness even in face of reproach and shame. The Servants shows two ways we can use the message and get reward either way, the message and man used by the little ones to separate sheep who hear the Shepherds Voice which is the Spirit witnessing by us, but the test for sheep and goats in their attitude to the man by whom the message is given.
You will always find more joy and clearer vision in giving than in getting or in speaking one with another when the Devil may have scored by the getting them into the selfish use of Man and Message. To err on God's side is always best and beware of giving Matt. 22 invite to Matt . 23 people who are the Scribe and Pharisee of today, Mal. 4 suits all kinds. BUT to give offer of mercy to those who He said and says, WOE to, is a grievous misuse of the Message, so keep clear, we don't expect people who are too proud to hear and obey to find woe turned to mercy - the line is very clearly drawn all through the Book from Cain and Abel to the last of the meek who have ears and heart to obey.
You will always be cheered and inriched by giving appropriately to the Spirits Message to suit the person we speak to. Matt 23 people can always be sure its they who bear these marks who have been and are getting Matt. 23 woes. When men can see by their attitude to the man and Message what flock they are found in, they have heard what God will honor, either one way or the other. Its hopeless to waste time on people who have given clear evidence of being goats and we can and should only emphasize the everlasting fire to all rather than to be personal.
My love in Him,
Wm. Irvine.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Percy Abbott, Eureka, Calif.
May 9, 1935
From: PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine.
My dear Percy:
Thanks for yours enclosed in George Linn's today. Your interpretation of Matt. V:7 conditions is right. The Fountains have perfect right to ask the Government for help, as others have done in many places. I have encouraged a few who were in isolated places; but to beg, borrow or steal is dangerous for all, as it's violating the clear commands. They have no need to fear about getting to Jerusalem when the time comes, and they bear the worthy marks of the Bride.
Encourage all to seek to get and keep on their own feet, for all else is dangerous, and seldom works out the Righteousness of heart which can be honoured of God. I warned some against this years ago, so the responsibility will be theirs for we are clearly into the day of rewards; so I am not surprised at the boy in hospital. To help anyone is good, but it's dangerous if people in His name begin to help themselves from others.
Read Rev. 22: and get good working understanding of it; the Throne, the River and the Tree of Life, which every one can have right to as they hear and obey His commands.
Verse 6 shows the fullness of "Blessing" past, present and future to all who have right.
Verse 7: "Behold I come quickly" -- in Tribulation period, in contrast to the 21 years past. Blessed is (He) that keeping the sayings of the Prophecy of this Book.
Verse 12: Behold I come quickly (Now) my reward is with me, to give to every man according to his works.
Verse 14, Blessed are (they) that keep His commands for today in the Book made prophecy, that they may have right to the Tree of Life; and may enter into the city by the Gates.
Verse 16 - 21, is the summing up of the whole facts and leaves no room for quibbling about the Message of the Spirit by the Bride, whom the Spirit witnesses by. They who have hearing ears may say Come, the Thirsty and whom-so-ever will, may take the Waters of Life freely. A Bigger and Better Field for service awaits all who can rightly say "Come".
Verse 20, He which testifieth these things saith "Behold I come quickly and surely; and the only answer "Even so come Lord Jesus", rather than cry for Peace and Safety as they were doing world wide and Sept. 1st. and now getting their answer today.
Best love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
P.S. Thanks for all the other letters from that quarter which you can help in the way they need in hearing the Message and keeping it. W.I.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Dunbars, Placentia, CA
May 30, 1935
PO Box 696
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Dunbars:
Thanks for yours. Glad you are all in good shape. I have all along, looked for those marks, and no hope can be held out for any who try bumming or wrangling in any shape or form. And even to give encouragement to hear by showing favor in any shape is fatal to them. To make a meal ticket of the Message defeats the very promises which are for the Blessed. Whatever hinders people from getting, having, and using the Spirit’s Message and Man can only end in defeating the very object aimed at. It’s Sheep who can claim the promises, which should cover all our needs. And we are not blind to seeing what marks the Foolish, as well as the Wise Virgins—the good and faithful servants, from the slothful and wicked. So you acted wisely, and wherever you see bumming or any such tendency, rebuke it sharply, rather than allow the foolish to feed on the Wise. For He reads the heart and gives according to what He finds there. So there can be no room for any deceit in the matter.
Another form of it is seen in people making excuses in place of using what they have. I notice in some, a tendency to be anxious to cultivate fellowships with others, and find excuse for visiting the Little Ones, under pretext of hearing more. And some letters bear the same marks. The Message is for all in the highways, etc. No matter what their condition, but the Wedding Garment will not cover triflers who go on playing the fool, when they have heard, and fail to consider Him coming to sup with them. Such a privilege should make people keen to cultivate conditions that make it comfortable for Him to dwell in. But we can’t refuse to give everyone a chance to hear; but to hear and abuse their privilege can only end in defeat.
The Kaiser’s clock was sold last week, which surely is humiliation, and probably the end of the Silver Jubilee of Daniel 4.
Broadcasting is now on here, and the Moscow airplane smash marks the great Eagle of Revelation 12; along with revolt in Euphrates and Iraq; along with *Lawrence’s death. The report of Supreme Court decision in USA is very serious matter for USA.
My love to all,
William Irvine.

Wm. Irvine’s Letter To: Bakers, Denver, Colorado
July 9, 1935
My dear Bakers (All):
Thanks for your letter. You have so much to thank God for, though you will only have a little foretaste of all it means; but you will find His Spirit give you peace, joy, comfort and hope which you never could have before, as you open your mouth wide to all you meet, and find the Spirit fill it with words and wisdom. If you had found satisfaction in the old Gospel of Alpha days, you would have been like the whole of Babylon described in Rev. 18, and its ministry as in Rev. 17. The Testimony bears all these marks, and was the 7 churches; my 21 years’ work in the various parts of the world, where my feet had trod as His Alpha Servant, and so became His Angel or sent one to them, to testify the Revelation Message, which is the program for the Judgment of all Nations and every man, separating into sheep and goats the whole world, by their attitude to the Man and Message of God by the Spirit on the earth, as God and Jesus are on the Throne.
Rev. 22 makes the whole matter very simple and clear and strong. The River flowing, as we hear and obey, so that the Living waters flow from our lips. The Tree of Life growing – now fruiting – while the leaves, or witness of the Living Branches, are for the healing of the smitten nations, or the hewing down of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil of the Garden. As one grows, the other is to fall away and perish from off the earth. Verses 3, 4, and 5 of Rev. 22 shows what will happen as the Tree of Life grows, and the old R.P. & E. corrupt tree perishes from off the earth.
Verse 6 – These sayings are faithful (or full of faith to all who hear and obey) and True, for the Spirit will seal them in all who hear and obey, and the Lord God of the Holy Prophets sent His angel to show unto His Servants who obey Him, the things which must shortly be done. Revelation and all the Truth for Judgment days was Sealed till the time of the End. “Behold, I come quickly,” refers to the days we are now in. Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings (by the Spirit) of the prophecy (or reading of the Spirit by the angel) of this Book.
Verses 8 and 9 shows us the meeting of John from Heaven, and His angel or Servant on the Earth (shortly). Verse 10, Seal not, open to all, the Sayings of the prophecy of this Book – Revelation; for the time is at hand. Verse 11 – the unjust, filthy, righteous, and holy, will all be tested by their attitude to the Message from the Throne by the sent angel. Verse 12 – rewards for every man, according to their hearing or refusing. Verse 13, I am Alpha, as I was to my disciples of old, who had ears for the Spirit’s Message then, and so again, and Omega the avenger and Judge of all who are the resisters of the Message, or the piercers, or those who bear the Matt. 23 marks today; the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
You can see how many hang on to what He was 1900 years ago, and reject His Message from the Throne. They profess to accept the first, and reject the last. Verse 14 – Blessed are they that keep His commandments of Revelation, in hearing and obeying and witnessing to these things, that they may have right, or be part of the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates (not over the wall) into the City.
Verse 15 – For without, or outside of those who hear and obey, are Dogs, and you will have plenty of proof. Sorcerers, who contradict all He says today, by quoting Scripture, as did the Scribes and Pharisees who crucified Jesus according to their reading of the Scriptures. Whoremongers who listen to and have fellowship with any of they who preach and get honor, place and power and reward. Murderers of the Cain sort who measure men by their sins and themselves by their righteousness.
John’s 1st Epistle shows them as they turn their back on their brother. Idolaters – those who look to leaders who have been produced by anything but being sent of God, all of whom loveth and maketh a lie, or who refuse, and contradict anything which is of God. Verse 16 – I, Jesus, have sent mine angel – or sent one – to Testify these things in the churches – not Babylon – but what was my work in Alpha 21 years up to 1914. The 7 churches of Asia was the work of Paul, and was made the basis for the churches of my labors.
Revelation is Prophecy which had no meaning till the time came. All they of Asia forsook Paul, and all the true apostles, and were dominated by the false. I am the Root and off-spring of all who are the David – or anointed seed – and the Bright and morning star, or the source of Light, leading into the New Day as in Mal. 4. Verse 17 – The Spirit and the Bride, or those who hear the Message of the angel sent one, are the Bride who say Come, and all who hear and are not the Bride say Come, and whosoever will may take of the Water of Life freely.
Verses 18 and 19. Jesus testifies to every man that heareth the words of the Prophecy by the Bride – or those who hear – if they add to or take from, it will be fatal to them, and evidence of not hearing and obeying Him. Verse 20 – He which testifieth these things, Saith (today) Behold I come quickly, (in the next 7 years), and all who hear and obey say, “Even so, Come Lord Jesus.” The Spirit says, “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all,” who hear and obey, but not one ray of hope or comfort for any others.

Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Maurice & Co:
Thanks for Mrs. Kelly's, Arcuri's, Westlund's, Hansen's, and 2 from Gordon, with photos from Kelly's and Gordon.
I think it better to give you one, than to write too many now, as I expect to hear the results in favor and deliverance, by Michael and his angels, of all who have benefited by the Man and Message, and so have oil in their vessels. The wise shall shine as the firmament, or be able to give to any hungry, thirsty person the waters of life, and they that turn many to righteousness, are to have oil in their vessels [and shine] as the stars forever and ever. So we can be sure that the wise will be able to give anyone in need all the help they want, without any help from me. The foolish will not be able to do this. So I will confine my attention more to hearing results from the wise in their witness, and the favors and deliverance they enjoy, as well as the reports of troubles, which are sure to come to all who are the sort who cast the Daniel seed into the fiery furnace, or Daniel into the Lion's den; for Daniel and his friends are but samples of the Least and Little Ones.
The Spirit and Bride say, Come; let him that heareth say, Come; he that is thirsty and whosoever will, let them take of the Water of Life freely. All who are the Wise can expect the waters to flow, which simply means that what I have been to you, you can be to all you meet. The Message is practically complete, and now it's to see the fruits of it in the wise and foolish virgins, the servants and the sheep and goats.
Jesus says, I testify to everyone that heareth the words of this prophesy. If they shall add to, they will share the plagues, or take from--their name shall be taken out of the Book of Life. These things reveal where we are at now, so we expect great flow of waters and greater blessing to all, and by all, assured that Michael and his angels are for, with, and by us in the battle. So more zeal, courage, and confidence is the lot of all who have oil in their vessels, and who have talents increased by all the use of privileges of other days. So I will be more keen to hear results, than to share in the labor of pouring out more.
Revelation 22-God and Jesus, the River, the Spirit Message to produce the tree now fruiting, and its leaves for the healing of the nations, is the wise virgins with oil in their vessels, now being revealed and the results seen in added opportunity and power to witness. So let all be alive to their greater privilege.
Best love to all,
Wm. Irvine

Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Morgans:
Thanks for yours and photo. You need not worry about any one or any thing. The great day of rewards has come, and you will see it very clearly and very shortly. Get all the help you can to understand Revelation 22 and notice the verse 13, Behold, or see by the Spirit, I come quickly, not as in the past 21 years, but in next 7 years which will end the whole programme - My reward is with me to give every man according to his works. Verse 14, Blessed are they that do His commandments, as we got to know the Message of Revelation read by the Sent One of Jesus, as in verse 16. "Commandments" there refers to the guidance of the Witness, Leader and Commander the Lord says He has made His Servant. All who obey MY guidance have a right to the Tree of Life and may enter in thru the Gates into the City, or New Jerusalem
Verse 15 shows what we have around us, and the religious are worse than the sinners. "Without" simply means what we find who are inside and with hearing ears and obedient hearts. The contrast is more manifest every day, the one to have mercy-protection, the other to be destroyed in one way or another of the four ways: war, famine, pestilence, and plagues, or the four forms of judgments, or reward of the wicked in Ps 91, which we can see working around us every day. We don't expect much from Verse 15 dogs, etc., but let them play up all they want to. The more they play, the surer and swifter their reward, and it's all depending on their attitude to the Man and Message from the Throne. Read Verses 16 to 21 and you see the whole facts. I, Jesus, have sent mine Angel to testify these things to those who profess to have life, but they can neither add to or take from my reading of Revelation, and happy are all They who can say, "Even so come Lord Jesus," as you have revealed from the Throne.
My love and sympathy

Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Hulls
September 7, 1935
My dear Hulls, Thompson and Co:
Thanks for yours. The world is trembling with fear of what’s coming on the earth today - in spite of their ignorance, simplicity, conceit and rebellion - as they see all their hopes in R.P.& E. beginning to totter and fall. You can see the most audacious are those under God’s delusion in believing the lie about the Rapture. Verse 11 of Rev. 22 - He that is unjust, filthy, Righteous or Holy. Verse 12 says - Behold, I come quickly - now in Harvest days - my reward as Alpha to my present day disciples, by the Man and Message He sent from the Throne, and as Omega in Wrath to all others - is with me to give every man according to his works, or the use he made of my Message, or the consequences of refusing, resisting or missing it in his simplicity. For apart from the Faithful and True witness of God and Jesus by the Spirit, there is no hope of regeneration, which is the sure mark He demands in all who are to escape.
People may fool and trifle with the Message, but there is only one, and to that Death and Hell. Blessed are they who do His Commands from the Throne, made easy and plain by the Witness, Leader and Commander, in contrast to all of Moses’ commandments and of the Alpha commands, which so many profess to follow while rejecting the living God and Jesus by the Spirit through His sent Servant. All who truly obey have a right to the Tree of Life, and their words and witness have healing for all who receive them, and may enter in through the Gates into the city FOR outside of this we have only Dogs, which covers all sorts - sorcerers who say anything in name of God. Whoremongers who listen to and pay anyone who brings them the lie. Murders who hate, and would do violence to all who bear His Message of Life. Idolators who listen to and worship God by their own hand-made Images; and all whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
Verses 14 and 15 give us the 2 possibilities for all on the Earth; no hole or corner work there. 16 to 20 puts the whole matter in clear definite order - their rewards clear to all who truly have received His Message, and warning to all who would trifle. So let all live by what they have got of the Message and use it in proof, in seeking to help others to taste of the Living Waters. No Bluff, Blah, or cackling is any use.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
Obedience is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of Rams. Though sacrifice always bulks larger in other’s eyes. The obedient, hearkening heart is being perfected by the Spirit working in. I have noticed these things for many years, and no one can doubt which is vest and safest for those who do it, and those who look on. Not what our Humanity can be, but what he can put in by His Spirit, and work by us on and in others. Beware of the Leaven of the Pharisee - or outward influence - in contrast to His Spirit truly working in us and by us. W.I.
If Fred, Mary and Frank were not there building a house, or shack, or anything else, the many around there might not benefit by what you can supply, and what many lack - Good common Horse Sense. If there should be some foolish virgins left around there, they maybe glad of the house Fred and Frank built, when they no longer need it. To be able and willing to have 20 come and share your hospitality in the Heavenly and Earthy fare, is no small privilege, which I hope they will value, and go and do likewise. W.I.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: John Byers
September 7, 1935
My dear John and Co:
Thanks for yours. You are but finding out what most people are. That what's human is but vanity apart from it being His Temple.
The value of Revelation Message from the Throne, is that men can choose whether to hear, obey and live, or go on their own ways with their own thoughts and perish.
There shall be no more curse. Rev. 22:3 simply means there shall be no more time or room on earth for the unregenerate who choose what they find suits them rather than what will accomplish His purpose in them in others. Vs. 6 says - These sayings are faithful or full of faith for those who hear and obey them, and true, or what God will honor or dishonor; the Lord God of the Holy Prophets sent His angel to show unto His servants what must shortly be done. Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this Book, for the time is at hand. How the harvest has come - whether men are unjust, filthy, Holy or Righteous - won't make any difference.
Behold, I come quickly - which means in the tribulation days now on in place of the 21 years now past. My reward is with me to give to every man according to his works, whether these be the result of hearing and obeying His Message from the Throne or in going on in his own thoughts and ways.
Vs. 14, Blessed are they who keep His Commandments as made known by His servant sent to read and make prophecy the words of His Book. Not Moses' Commandments or the Gospel Commandments but what came from the Throne today, that they may have a right to the Tree of Life and may enter the gates into the city.
Vs. 15, For without, or outside of this, God only sees dogs, sorcerers, murderers, whoremongers and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. Vs. 5-21 is the sum total of the whole, and happy are all those who can say, Come Lord Jesus, surely and quickly without any excuse or quibble, so it's your battle or choice as for every other.
My love in Him to all there,
Wm. Irvine
P.S. The Great day has come and who shall be able to stand, if His Spirit is not in them, and the test is their reception and obedience to His Message, which is the test for professors of having life.
If they add to or take from His Message they will find their part taken out of the Book of Life. Flesh and blood or humanity without being born into His Family can never inherit the Kingdom. Good, bad, or indifferent. W. I.
Wm Irvine's Letter to Adams
Box 696 P. O.
Jerusalem, Palestine
September 9, 1935
My Dear Adams,
Thanks for yrs. Today. If we were to find the leaf which contains Rev. XXII, and had no other to guide us – it would be very full for all that’s going on today in Heaven and on the Earth God and Jesus on the Throne – The River of water of Life flowing, or the Spirits witness to and by those whom He considers worthy of such a privilege.
The Tree of life in the midst of the Street Showing it on the Earth and on either side of the River. The promises which follow are certainly ahead, and beyond anything the world has ever seen or heard before.
These sayings are faithful to all who receive them and True witnessed by the Spirit which is the only Test of Truth in any age. The Lord God of the Holy Prophets hath sent His Angel messenger to testify these things or show His Servants what must shortly be Done. Blessed is He that keepeth the sayings of the Prophecy of this Book.
Behold Ye who have ears and eyes. I come quickly.
V.5. 1 John on the Earth as a man saw and heard these things – why should not we see and hear them – if in the Spirit as did John flesh and blood with the Angel and what fools we would be to expect people to know them without the Same Spirit.
V.10. Seal not these sayings when the time is at hand.
V.6. Shows the Prophet Sent to those who are His Servants on the Earth.
V. 11. Unjust, Filthy, Righteous or Holy – will all be on the same plane, and measured and rewarded by their works for or against.
V. 14. Blessed are they that do His Commands from the Throne and known by His Commander – they have a right to the Tree of Life, and entrance into the City FOR outside of such are the 6 fold marked enemies of God and friends of the Wicked One.
I Jesus on the Throne have sent mine Angel to testify these things in the Churches or those gathered by the Angel before He got this Command.
I am the root of David the anointed and all who are His seed on the Earth today.
The Bright and morning star which shows its for the New Israel in the New Day of Malachi 4.
Those who have received the Angel witness and what the Spirit saith unto the Churches are the Bride by whom the Spirit says come as well as those who heareth but are not the Bride and its for all who are thirsty.
V. 18 & 19 Defies all who would tamper with the message and the plagues on the Earth by the 2 witnesses are for such as add to. And God will take the names out of the Book of Life of all who take from the Angels reading Matt 25. He and His cant be separated.
My love to all there,
Wm. Irvine

CA
September 11, 1935
PO Box 696
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Mrs. Hill
Thanks for yours. Your last question is easily answered by the fact that people who kept the Sabbath Day best, and were careful tithers, and also keepers of the law, were those who were the means of putting HIM to DEATH, and so today, are all who put emphasis on keeping the Sabbath, which was but a typical matter. The true keeping of the Sabbath is to cease from our own thoughts and ways and let God work in you and by you, by His Spirit, as in Isaiah 55, where you have a perfect guide for the people on the Earth, if people feel their need of such.
Revelation is the program for judging of all the nations and every man on the face of the whole earth. Half has been fulfilled in the past 21 years. Now comes the Tribulation years with world war, famine, pestilence, and plagues The Two Witnesses of Revelation 11 will appear when the war begins in earnest. If these days were not shortened, there would be no flesh saved, but for the Elect's sake, on the earth, they will be shortened to seven years.
Revelation 17, The Whore and her daughters covers the whole religious world of false prophets, or they who read and try to read the Book, pretty much as the Scribes and Pharisees, then and now, do.
Revelation 18, The Spirit (by all whom He dwells in) cries, "Come out of her my people." If you can hear this, then you may begin to get understanding.
Revelation 1:3 shows who are "Blessed," or given the Spirit to read Revelation, which was a closed book until 1914, when the war began. Blessed is he that readeth, and they who hear the words of this prophecy, for the time is at hand.
Revelation 22:6-7 shows Jesus sent His Angel, or Servant, to show to His servants things which must shortly be done. So you see one at the beginning and end, and all through, but the world of false prophets, by the Devil's deceivings, has greater power to blind and keep in darkness, those who are content with their own thoughts and ways.
Matthew 22, 23, 24 & 25 are all good reading for today. The goats don't need God and Jesus' sent Servant, they have their own made, chosen, and paid preacher, and so Goats. There are many in and around Los Angeles whom you can trust to read Revelation to you as the Spirit has given unto me, and by me, to them. Mr. Emil Ritzman, 2205 La Paloma,St., Alhambra, is not far from you. I have known him for years.

Thanks for yours. Sorry to hear of Lillian's condition and hope it's but a test which John's coming will reveal the healing power by. I would have given the Dr.'s a chance long ago, for they can do best when early help is asked for. I will be glad to hear of developments.
We are certainly near the great day of Revelation 12. They have been working for 9 days on the peace plans, but darker every day. You can see the League peace pact security ripening every day, for dominion is to be given to the Leopard. Every move only makes clearer the program concentrated in Revelation.
I have enjoyed Revelation 22:1-5. The River flowing and the Tree of Life growing on the Earth, and all the purposes, plans and promises given.
Verse 6, "These sayings are faithful and true, and the Lord, God of the Holy Prophets, sent His Angel to shew to all who are His servants what, or the things, which must shortly be done." This reveals the Prophet sent, when the things were coming to be fulfilled, and not the Angel, which John saw and heard. "Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of the book."
Verse 9 shows the 2 Witnesses. John and the Prophet on the Earth, who made the book prophecy by his reading and witness.
Verse 10, seal not the sayings, but make them known to all, unjust, filthy, righteous or holy for they will be judged by their works for or against the revelation He is giving, and that, for the future as well as the past. The same message will be the only hope till the work is finished. "Quickly" refers to this period we are now into.
Verses 14-15 shows who are in and who are outside in their 6-fold wickedness.
6:1-21 gives the authority, I, Jesus, sent mine Angel to gather out the Woman Body from the churches. So the Spirit and Bride say "Come," and all who have ears, and no man can question the servants of witness and fail to get judgment.
My love in Him,
Wm. Irvine
Let not fear or doubt weaken you in the great battle. Favor and deliverance are ours, no matter how dark it may appear.
Wm. Irvine’s Letter To: Dunbars
September 14, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Dunbars:
How different people are today, when war seems imminent in spite of their prayers and plans to evade His righteous judgment on all nations creating for us, who have wakened, arisen, trimmed our lamps and prepared to go forth as His witnesses to God and Jesus on the Throne, from whence has gone forth the River in its flow and the Tree of Life growing with added fruit and leaves for all who feel their need of healing.
You can contrast what we were in our early reading of Revelation 1, 2 & 3 in contrast to the clear witness we can bear in our reading of Revelation 22. Slowly, step by step, line upon line, we have been able to read, and others to hear, the fullness of His Message which makes Revelation 22:6 easy to read: The Lord, God of the holy prophets, sent His Angel to show to His servants the things which will (must) shortly come to pass. This is the Elijah marks.
I, Jesus have sent mine Angel to testify these things to the churches. I am the Root of the Anointed Seed, and the Offspring, in all who will share in the anointing, and the Bright and Morning Star, or light for the dawning of a new day. This has produced the Bride, now as the mouthpiece of the Spirit, and so she says "Come" and all who hear may say "come," even if not the Bride, and whosoever will, may take of the Water of Life freely, as world-wide and free as was the Alpha Gospel. A new gospel for a new day, and the Bride, the mother of all who will live by it, and so she will shine as the firmament and as the stars forever and ever.
It’s the Adam and Eve of a new creation of the Meek, who shall inherit. Adam created from the dust of the earth under their feet; Eve taken from his side. The words are all eloquent for today. The Manchild brought forth as a sample of the fullness of our inheritance as the high-called in Christ Jesus, *[have] been the same. Behold, I come quickly, my reward is with me to give to every man according to his works, for or against what comes from the Throne. Not by their unjust works, filthy, righteous or holy, but measured by their attitude, words and actions to what He has revealed and our oppy [opportunity] will increase as troubles increase, as troubles increase.
My love to all,
William Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Lees
September 20, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Lees:
What a silly old couple you are to think there are no other "Lees" in the world. I am sorry you have given yourselves two months' torment. I referred to Lees in Mary Hull's district, who have proved very foolish in their human relationships. I think you have put up a great fight for a crust, and come through wonderfully. And it's not mine, even, to judge between the Foolish and Wise, but to encourage all and let Him make clear, by His rewards, who are, and what is what.
The River is flowing and the Tree of Life is growing, and all that's there written in Revelation 22:1-5 is true and faithful. And the Lord, God of the Holy Prophets sent His Angel to show to all who are His servants, and show it by hearing and bearing the Message, the things which must shortly be done. (not in Tribulation Days.) "Behold, I come quickly" to fulfill all these things we have been witnessing to. "Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy Of this book."
Verse 11 shows 4 sorts: Unjust, filthy, righteous, and holy. But these are only world marks. The rewards of verse 12 is for those who are against Him. Verse 14, Blessed are they that do his commandments, in these things and days, that they may have right to claim the Tree of Life and my enter in through the Gates into the City; for outside of them there are only the whole religious zoo crowds with the 6 marks by which we know the proud and the wicked.
Verse 16, "I, Jesus. have sent mine angel to testify these things in the 7 churches of Alpha days, when the time is at hand to gather the Woman-Bride, who is the mouthpiece of the Spirit, who are to say, "Come" as well as all who heareth may say, "Come," and whosoever will, as in Alpha days.
Verse 18 shows it's for the days when the two witnesses may put on the plagues written in this book of Revelation. "if any man add to the words of this prophecy, God will add the plagues." So it's for today.
So our Message not only gives us life, but we have the Message of Life to offer to all who are thirsty, and there will be many such, as soon as we see war break out between the pro-League and the anti-League world.
Revelation 19 is a record of the union of the League and the Religious Western World; but verses 9 and 11 are for us.
My love in Him,
Wm. Irvine
I hope you may have some comfort ere this reaches you.
William Irvine's Letter to Hulls, Colfax, Calif.
September 21, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear Hulls, Frank and Co:
Thanks for yours 27/8/35. Today the world is waiting on the Rainy Season to finish in Ethiopia, for War to be let loose on the Earth. In Noah's time they were asking when the Rain was to come - which came and took them all away, with the very words of defiance in their mouths. They did not believe they were under Judgment - then or now - and the drought may begin when the rain stops in Ethiopia. So we also wait for John's coming which will end the rain on the earth for 3 1/2 years, which will be worse than the war.
27th September is the Jewish New Year. 7th Oct, is Atonement day. 11th November is Armistice Day and the King of Italy's birthday. 13th November is Noah's flood day - the 17th of the 2nd month; and Armistice day may be the day when Revelation 9: - loosing of the 4 angels, bound and prepared in the Great River Euphrates, or when the East will declare against the League Mandates and take Jerusalem - which brings the League Army in the air, which are being got ready to protect the Mediterranean today no doubt, for if Sanctions close the Suez Canal, Mussolini will close the Mediterranean.
Revelation 13: is the record of the union of the Religious Dragon with the League of Nations.
Verse 1: I stood on the Sand, or Shore, not in the Sea, which is typical of the whole world population, and saw a Beast rise up out of the Sea, - same Beast or Dragon which stands before the Woman of Revelation 12: names of Blasphemy, all in the name of God.
Verse 2. A Leopard - League-spotted Beast- his feet as the feet of a bear, which indicates Russia-white or red- will be in it, the mouth of a lion- to back the Mandates and the Balfour Declaration.
Verse 3: shows the Jews get recognition as a world power in the healing of the head wounded to death. All the world will wonder at the great union power and authority of the Beast, and worship the Dragon which gave seat, power and great authority.
Verse 4. They worship the Beast, and say - who is able to make War with the Beast - proof they will gain mastery for 3 1/2 years, during the 2 Witnesses witness.
Verse 5. - shows they will have a Man mouthpiece, and speak against God, as revealed in the 2 witnesses - His Tabernacle - and the Meek who dwell in Heaven, and who are to come.
Verse 7. It was given him to have power over kindred, tongues, Nations and all whose names are not in the Book of the Lamb slain, shall worship him.
Verse 9. If any man have an ear, let him hear the end of the whole matter. He that leadeth into captivity, shall go into captivity, and he that killeth with the Sword, must be killed with the Sword. Here is the patience and faith of the Saints. The West will conquer the East, and oppress and deceive the world, but their end will be to destroy each other, or be destroyed by drought, pestilence and plagues.
Verse 11 to end - is the Jews coming into power in Palestine. You may say - Revelation 11, 12 and 13 are all parallel, and coming on at same time. The great powers to be destroyed, and the Saints with ears to hear, set up the Kingdom on the Earth. So you see the proud and wicked gathered in bulk to be destroyed, while the Saints are being gathered around the 2 witnesses and woman. Revelation 14:shows the 144,000 ripe and ready to be scattered to the ends of the Earth with the New Everlasting Gospel, to preach when the 2 witnesses are ripe and ready to go home, and when the Jews are doing in Palestine, what's written in Revelation 13: 11 to end.
The Anti-Christ and his power in contrast to the Anointed Seed and their Gospel to the ends of the Earth- Life by the 2 Witnesses, Death by the whole Ant-Christ seed, all finished in 7 years. The 3 became 144,000 and are scattered to all Nations offering Salvation, while the first 7 verses of Revelation 14 - the last half - shows the Harvest ripe, and the Sword let loose on the Great world Beast to the last man.
My love in Him.
Wm. Irvine.

My dear Walter, Ellen & Co.
Thanks for yours (2) and Diva's. I would enjoy meeting the 6 on the way to school and bombard them with some ripe peaches, so they could show the marks when they got home. It's quite a job keeping them all healthy, hearty and jolly in these days, and I enjoy the sure and certain hope in His care and provision for all who are in the secret place and under His wings.
It was good to hear about some gathering in Irvine Park for a little Tête-à-tête, and I'm quite sure the Godhead had more interest in these few than He has in the Geneva Conferences, etc., to evade the very war which is but a step towards our deliverance from the present evil conditions on the face of the whole earth. If He sits on the Throne laughing at Geneva, etc, I believe He smiles to see a few Little Ones to talk together of the Man and Message by which He offers salvation and protection to all who have ears and heart for what comes from His heart and mind in fulfilling His purpose from the foundation of the world. For there is nothing happening but what is the consummation of His plan.
Revelation 22 becomes easy to read now that we have as the Prophet, the Angel sent to shew His servants things which must shortly be done. The River flows, the Tree of Life grows, and the City is being built, the wall raised, and the Gates formed and opened in all who truly hear and obey.
Verses 6 & 7 are very reassuring to all who keep the sayings of the prophecy of this book--Man and Message Work. The book is dead to all who have no reader or who hear not what the Spirit saith. The day will come when they will believe He sent His Angel, just as they believe today on all the past prophets and servants sent.
Verses 3-5 are wonderful promises for all who hear and keep his commandments in bearing His witness to the world. Verse 11 shows it don't matter whether people are unjust, filthy, righteous Or holy. Their reward depends on their attitude to His Man and Message of Revelation. They will either be for or against him and their reward according to. Verse 14, Blessed are they who do it. Verse 15, For without, outside of they who do it, there are nothing but the whole Babylonian numbers, six-fold, in making a lie as the others are the true witnesses despised and rejected of the numbers, but beloved and valued as the seed of the coming Kingdom and have ears and heart for what comes from His heart and mind in fulfilling His purpose from the foundation of the world. For there is nothing happening but what is the consummation of His plan.
My love to all,

My Dear Bakers (All):
Thanks for your letters. You have much to thank God for, though you will only have a little foretaste of all it means, but you will find His Spirit gives you peace, joy, comfort, and hope which you never could have had before, as you open your mouth wide to all you meet and find the Spirit fill it with words and wisdom. If you had found satisfaction in the old Gospel of Alpha days you would have been like the whole of Babylon described in Rev. 18:, and it’s ministry as in Rev. 17:. The Testimony bears all these marks, and was the 7 churches. My 21 years work in the various parts of the world where my feet had trod as His Servant, and so became His angel or sent one to them, to testify the Revelation Message, which is program for the Judgment of all nations and every man, separating into sheep & goats the whole world by their attitude to the Man and Message of God, by the Spirit on the earth as God and Jesus are on the Throne.
Rev. 22: Makes the whole matter very simple and clear and strong. The River flowing as we hear and obey, so that the living waters flow from our lips. The Tree of life growing and fruiting while the Leaves or witness of the living Branches are for the healing of the smitten nations, or the hewing down of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil of the Garden, as one grows the other is to fall away and perish from off the earth. Verses 3, 4 and 5 of Rev. 22 shows what will happen as the Tree of life grows and the old R.P.&E. ( Religious, Political & Educated) corrupt tree perishes from off the earth.
Vs. 6: These sayings are faithful (or full of faith to all who hear & obey) and True, for the Spirit will seal them in all who hear & obey, and the Lord God of the Holy Prophets sent His angel to show unto His Servants, who obey Him, the things which must shortly be done. Revelation and all the truth for Judgment days was Sealed till the time of the end. Behold, I come quickly, refers to the days we are now in. Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings ( by the Spirit) of the prophecy (or reading by the Spirit by the angel) of this Book.
Vs. 8 and 9: Shows us the meeting of John from Heaven and His angel or Servant on the earth (Shortly)
Vs. 10: Seal not, open to all, the Sayings of the prophecy of this Book, Revelation, FOR the time is at hand. Vs. 11: The unjust, filthy, righteous and holy will all be tested by their attitude to the Message from the Throne by the sent angel. Vs. 12: Rewards for every man according to their hearing or refusing.
Vs. 13: I am Alpha, as I was to my disciple of old, who had ears for the Spirit’s Message then, and so again, and Judge and avenger of all who are the resisters of the Message, or the piercers, or those who bear the Matt. 23 marks today—the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last. You can see how many hang onto what he was 1900 years ago, and reject His Message from the Throne. They profess to accept the 1st and reject the last.
Vs. 14: Blessed are they that keep His commandments of Rev. in hearing and obeying and witnessing to these things that they may have right, or be part of the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates (not over the wall) into the city.
Vs. 15: For without, or outside of those who hear and obey, are Dogs, and you will have plenty of proof. Sorcerers, who contradict all he says today, by quoting Scripture, as did the Scribes and Pharisees who crucified Jesus according to their reading of the Scriptures. Whoremongers, who listen to and have fellowship with any of they that preach and get honor, place and power and reward. Murderers, of the Cain sort who measure men by their sins and themselves by their righteousness.
John’s 1st Epistle shows them as they who turn their back on their brother. Idolaters, those who look to leaders who have been produced by anything but being sent of God, all of whom loveth and maketh a lie, or who refused and contradict anything is of God.
Vs. 16: I, Jesus have sent mine angel, or Sent-One, to testify these things in the churches, not Babylon, but what was my work in Alpha 21 years up to 1914. The 7 churches of Asia, was the work of Paul and was made the basis for the churches of my labors.
Revelation is prophecy which had no meaning till the time came. All they of Asia forsook Paul and all true Apostles, and were dominated by the False. I am the Root and the off-spring of all who are the David or anointed seed, and the Bright and morning star, or the source of light leading into the new day, as in Malachi 4.
Vs, 17: The Spirit and the Bride, or those who hear the Message of the angel sent-one are the Bride who say come, and all who hear but are not the Bride say Come. And who-so-ever will may take of the water of life freely.
Vs 18-19: Jesus testifies to every man that heareth the words of the prophecy by the Bride or those who hear, – if they add to or take from, it will be fatal to them, and evidence of not hearing and obeying Him. Vs. 20: He which Testifieth these things Saith (today), Behold I come quickly, (in these next 7 years) and all who hear and obey say " Even so, Come Lord Jesus." The Spirit says, "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all," who hear and obey, but not one ray of hope or comfort for any others.
My love and best wishes for all who bear your name.

William Irvine's Letter to Finchers, Grandview, Wash.
October 12, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My Dear Finchers:-
Thanks for yours. Glad you have heard some witness to the Man and Message of God for today. Most people are quite satisfied with their own thots and ways. Isaiah 55: is a guide to what my reading of Revelation is for those who are hungry and thirsty for the Living Waters or Message of God by the Spirit for these days. If they are still satisfied with what the Religious, Political or Educational world can give them, there is no hope.
To hear the Message of God, as given in Revelation, and read to those who will hear and obey, will bring blessing. No person can be any help to you unless they have His Blessing. And the world is full of false prophets, not only the Spiritulist, but all others who cackle and talk from the Bible, without having the Message of the Spirit today. Read Revelation 22: - see what it means to add to or take from the reading of Revelation by His Servant.
Don't trouble about questions. Read Revelation 3:20 and what He has to say. Let Him come in to Sup with you, or share what you have, that can be useful to Him in bearing the witness of God to the world, so that you may share what He has to offer.
You can read Revelation XI: and see what the 2 witnesses will be to the whole world - either in offering Life and Light by the Spirit, or Death by famine, pestilence and plagues for 3 1/2 years. And we expect John from Heaven any time now to be my Companion. It will be all very new and strange to you, but if you have ears for what the Spirit has to offer, you will soon find the whole Truth simple and plain.
Hear all you can, Read all you can, and witness to all you can and find the Spirit of God give you words of Wisdom. It's for such as are outside the Religious , Political and Educational world, in the streets and lanes of the cities, or the highways and hedges, or the victims of the present wicked age. I expect the Bairds may be able to help you into the way of life.
My Love in Him to all.
Wm. Irvine.
P.S. If you don't teach your child to obey you, it will teach you to obey it, and it spoils the young life very much. So at any cost, seek to teach the child who is to be obeyed in all things. That's what Parent means, to guide the young, innocent, ignorant child into the ways that God has for all humans. Wm. Irvine.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Sandy Hinds, Australia
October 20, 1935
PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
My Dear Sandy & Co.,
Thanks for yours. I wrote you 2 weeks ago, so hope you will have that ere this. I'm glad to hear your record for the past 20 years enjoyed the thought that you were counted worthy to escape from the snare into which the Testimony fell in, showing who had & who had not the Spirit of Him whom they so loudly pretended to serve.
I had not the slightest idea that we were giving the world the last of the Alpha Gospel in the most Scribe & Pharisee wicked age in history. The surest marks we were bearing His Testimony to the world was in our witness to the Scribe & Pharisee Religious, Political & Educated world. If we failed it was in bearing the same witness to the sinner world He bore. These 2 facts stand out clear today after all I have learned of my ignorance during our 21 years of Alpha Service which was very wonderful as we look back, & sure proof of His Seal on our various & many conflicts with Babylon of that day, ripening for judgments & the laying of the foundation for the new everlasting gospel which was hid from our eyes. For all truth for these past 21 years has sealed or unsealed by the Spirit till the time came for its fulfillment.
After spending a year in car all over the states, I spent a year alone in San Diego in a shack & there I got to see & taste much of the tenderness & love of God & Jesus which I could see was lacking in our interpretation of Jesus as the way, truth & life, - largely the influence of Scribe & Phariseeism & the most difficult thing or influence to get rid of. Then I went amongst Testimony friends & workers - to find the Devil & Satan had swamped them, & it was rather a painful experience but the only way I could have been convinced of their condition. And every bit of evidence that I have these past 21 years is but added proof of the terrible condition of every seed who would open their mouth against the man whom they owed everything under God the Trinity to.
The Man who measures himself in the name of God by his righteousness & any other by their sins is a Devil possessed man of the Cain seed & no exceptions. The man who in name or presence can say God be merciful to me a sinner, is of the Abel seed. The one wicked, the other righteous or in whom the spirit of Christ & the spirit can work, which is the true meaning of righteous. The 99 just persons who need no repentance are the wicked seed in every age. The lost sheep is the only likely sort to let God in any sense reach his heart & change his life & conform it to the image of His Son.
The Prodigal & the older brother are type of the Cain & Abel seed & reveals how hopeless a man becomes in his turning from all he knows to be wrong, to doing & being all he knows to be right. This is the Devil's work, & fruit of the tree of knowledge of good & evil always the serpent seed gospel and the gospel of the whole religious world. The voice of the Lord God in the Garden cursed all they thought was the gospel by the serpent. The same voice of the Lord God which is the only gospel which can bring life preaches repentance. But it means turn from all that's of devil as in Adam & Eve deception to all that comes from thr God of Heaven revealed in Jesus & by the spirit.
These are the fundamental facts which explains much in our Alpha experience & shows how big was the effort put forth in our 21 years in a devil possessed world which we little suspected to be so terribly poisoned & leavened. I often wondered at Jesus saying He was anointed to preach the Gospel to the outcast of the Scribe & Pharisee world & sent His Disciples to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And we had to learn by experience there was no hope for those who would be accepted in any religious circle in any age having true heart & ears for God. So the voice of the Lord God alone is saving gospel.
Many a time I pondered why the seeming most righteous & zealous in the Testimony lacked the one thing I most valued in all the hearing of the spirit speak by their lips either in testimony or preaching. And the more loyal they were to the many words & forms & many converts, the more evidence of the lack of the spirit of Christ & God. Baptizing, breaking of bread, & fellowship in the church meetings was often a nightmare to me. But now I can see His Hand guiding me all through these many years to seeing as He sees & finding only a few who found their way into the straight gate & narrow which ends in life, as all else can only end in death.
I could offer no hope to any man who has been satisfied to remain in the Testimony, for the separating of the devil's tares & the wheat of God was by what took place in 1914. I could not imagine God in many who forsook Paul in the churches which he had been the instrument in producing. It was the churches the true apostles produced who were the means of killing of the true apostles as the false came into power in the many churches.
In writing to Willie Gill & Eddie in 1914 I said that no matter what anyone thought & said or did I could not refuse the evidence in my own heart & mind that It had more evidence of God in me, for me, & by me than all of them put together, & as sure as the Kaiser would come out of it crownless I would come out with mine. And surely I have had abundance of proof these words were God given under very trying conditions. But all fitting His servant into the great events which were to mark the time of the end which began in 1914 when Revelation began to be the programme for His activities on the earth in judging the nations & every man, which is done from the Throne of God & the Lamb. The Spirit witnessing to these things on the earth & giving anointing to His servant to read Revelation to those who have ears to hear - Rev. 1:3. Blessed is he that readeth & they that hear the words of this prophesy & keep those things which are written, for the time is at hand. Which shows the spirit would be given to a reader & they who hear to understand what's written but sealed till the time of the end.
Rev. 22: 6 & 7 is worth reading for it shows the Lord God of the Holy Prophets sending His angel to show unto those who are His Servants the things which must shortly be done. Verse 7- Behold (see ye who have the spirit) I come quickly - no tarrying now the Message has been made clear & plain to all who would receive it. Blessed is he or everyone one that keepeth the sayings by the angel or servant's mouth of the prophecy of this Book. John was to write these things. My job is to read & make it plain to all who hear what the spirit saith unto the churches.
Rev.22:16 - I Jesus have sent mine angel to the churches (7). My Alpha work to testify these things. I am the root & offspring of David & the bright & morning star leading in to the light of a new day. As in Malachi 4. So all who are of the same root as David the anointed & the same offspring will receive the angel message to those who were the fruit of my work by the spirit & also follow the morning star.
Verse 18-19 shows that no man can trifle with the message of the angel & escape death & the consequences of their foolish pride & vanity in trying to read them in their own way. Happy all they who can say: even so, come Lord Jesus as you have revealed in Rev. by the written record read & testified to all who have ears.
Rev. 1-7 shows the message is for the coming in judgment to make the piercing seed of all such kindred wail. Jesus reveals himself to John as Alpha the same saviour to all who are hearers of the spirit's message: but as Omega the avenger of all the blood shed by the Cain seed, and that today on those who dwell on the earth. Many people like to think about Jesus of the 1st coming but reject Him as Omega the end when He will fulfill in judgments all the many terrible things the spirit witnessed to for the end.
Chapter 2, the 7 churches name was the cream of Paul's work around Ephesus. But I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify these things in the churches when the time is a hand. You have often tried to follow Paul's journeyings, but my journeyings will have proved to be as His ambassador in our day. I was the Alpha Angel to them all,- England, Ireland, Scotland, S. Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Eastern States, Western States, Canada, W.& E. New Foundland; and my work made them the 7 candle sticks. Notice the 7 messages fit in well with their conditions. But their attitude to the message today settles who have & who have not the spirit. Notice the double promise to the overcomer & to those who hear - you notice the word repent in all the messages, & it means Cease from the old & hear & obey the New - or perish in your own thoughts & ways. Laodicean message is very clear in showing they are satisfied with what they have & refuse the message by the angel concerning Jesus being Alpha & Omega.
Chapter 4 shows Heaven opened & shows what's going on in opening of the sealed book. The end of each of these chapters shows all Heaven & the angels pledging loyalty to Jesus in carrying through His programme & in all nature saying Blessing & Honour etc. to Him on the Throne & to the Lamb.
Chapter 6 gives us the various forms judgments take. Verse 16 & 17 show the final results.
Chapter 7 the gathering from N.S. E. & W. of those who will come to Jerusalem & be instructed in the New Gospel by the 2 witnesses of Rev. 11, & scattered with the everlasting gospel in Rev. 14 to gather by their gospel the great multitude whom no man can No. While all others will be cleared off the earth for His coming with the meek to reign for 1000 years.
Chapter 8 when the 7th seal was opened silence in Heaven for 1/2 /hour which we have kept in 2 minutes each year now finished. 7 angels prepared to sound & 4 sounded during the war of 1914 to 1918. Verse 7 the beginning of war describing the battlefields. All green grass burnt up & 1/3 part of the trees. Vs. 8 the naval operations on Atlantic 1/3 part of the sea in Northern Hemisphere - government figures was of 47,000,000 tons. Of this 15 million,780,000 tons were destroyed. Vs. 9 Living creatures in the sea submarines 1/3 part out of 608, 202 were destroyed during the war. Vs. 10, 3 angels sounded rivers & fountains, pulpit & press dried up so far as any gospel went, & the new light from Heaven supposedly of hating our enemies. Vs. 13 end of war - an angel crying Woe, Woe, Woe , or the consequences of the war. 1st of which is Bolshevism as in Chap. IX: 1-11.
Chapt. 9 to Vs.13 the coming of the war between East & West over the Versailles Treaty Mandate, Balfour Declaration. 1/3 part of men of the east to be killed by planes & fire, smoke & brimstone.
Chapt. 10, the little book of Rev. now opened & easy to read & John to come to be co-witness with the angel servant & prophet.
Chapt. 11 the 2 witnesses period for 3 1/2 years ending in their being killed & caught up to Heaven & sit right & left, as James & John's mother asked of Jesus.
Chapter 12 the bringing forth of the manchild as co-witness when John & by His coming Daniel 8 shows the war between East & West as in Rev. 9: 12-21
.
Rev.13 shows the League of Nations coming to Jerusalem as headquarters in & during the coming war when there will be plenty of trouble in Europe over the Versailles Treaty which is the 2nd woe or consequences of the war. 13 covers 2 periods of 3 1/2 years which is the tribulation leading up to His coming after the Great quake is fulfilled & hail of Rev. 16.
Chapt. 14 the scattering of the 144,000 after the death of the 2 witnesses. These are they who were not defiled by the whore or false prophets. The whore & her daughters & gives us some idea of what virgins wise & foolish means in Matt. 25.
Chapter 15 is the experience of all who have ears to hear & enjoy seeing His great & marvellous judgments wrought on the earth before their eyes.
Chapt. 16 gives us the 7 plagues which the 2 witnesses put on & off as often as they will on different types of enemies.
17 the consequences to the ministry of religious, political and educated Babylon which is Jerusalem.
18 the destruction of the whole religious, political & educated world headed in Jerusalem.
19 Jesus & the Bride at His coming. Note verse 9 - with Matt. 22 supper message. Verse 12-21 His coming to destroy finally His enemies. The consequences of the whole world in being either the Blessed or the cursed.
Chapt. 20 the first resurrection of those who are to reign with Him. Verse 8 to 15 is the final resurrection in judgment & rapture of the saints on the earth & destruction of the enemies left.
Chapt. 21 the coming of the meek from Heaven to inherit the earth & Him in their midst.
22 the sum of the whole matter. God & Jesus on the Throne, the spirit in those by whom the living waters flow, and the tree of life growing to be the witnesses or leaves of the tree for the healing of the nations, who are they who can truly say, Even so come Lord Jesus - so you have declared.
It's quite impossible for you to grasp by letter. But as you hear what others may be able to say & not only receive it but open your mouth & let it flow, so shall you get understanding. The whole is as new to me as it's odd to you, but I have been getting it line upon line for 21 years, but especially since coming here. You will find the whole book like a new book to you if you give the spirit a chance & obey. Need to keep clear of your own old thoughts and ways.
Read Isaiah 55 which is for this day & age, Man & Message. Daniel in Babylon the then set thing being but a typical record of what is true today on the earth for the latter days. You notice in Daniel 12 it was for the time of the end. Daniel & the 3 Hebrew Youths out of 70 of the least & little ones on the earth His witnesses to Rev.
Dan. 2 the image of the 5 forces of political government we have on the earth. Gold autocracy; silver democracy; Brass republicanism; Iron Bolshi-dictators; Clay & Iron socialism & bolshi mixed to be destroyed by the stone cut out without hands or the man-child of Rev. 12, the co-witness of John the setter up of the New Kingdom which shall never be destroyed.
Chapter 3 the prosperity in these 1914 &after days when the world was made like a fiery furnace for all who had any ears or mouth for God, & which brought sure judgment to all who were foolish enough to make us suffer as seen in many who have paid the price for their folly.
Chapter 4 the downfall of the German Nation & Kaiser.
5 the downfall of the great British Empire & England and in particular in the coming 3 1/2 years by war, famine, pestilence & plagues. No rain from Heaven will break England sooner than me.
Daniel 6 the experience of the anointed of God finding a den of lions through being His witness, leader & commander, but the lions will find the enemies sweeter eating than Daniel. The 2 witnesses of Rev. 11 rising & standing on their feet and ascending to up to Heaven, while earthquake destroying 7000 men of the place where they gathered to see if they would rise.
Dan. 7 the great powers which have come up since the war, - England & Empire the lion; Russia the Bolshi Bear; Leopard the League of Nations & spotted beast of 58 nations - 4th beast is U.S.A. who will finish up what England & League fail to do.
Dan 8 the conflict between East & West now coming on.
Dan. 9 the cleansing of the 144,000 ending in the death & rising & ascending of the 2 witnesses who were God's Messiah to the 144,000, verse 27.
Dan. 10 the conflict in the anointed being made able to read the signs of the times
Dan. 11 the great conflict amongst the nations from 1914 till the work is ended 7 years hence. Dan. 11:45
is the sign of the Kaiser's silver jubilee of humiliation & coming to his end with none to help him, while King George has gone up to the very top of the tree. The Kaiser built his palace on the mount of Olives, where Jesus ascended from, & expected to rule the world from. There 25 years it was wrecked by earth-quake & stands derelict since 1927. The clock was offered for sale to any bidder on May 20th, 1935 while the silver jubilee was on, & no one bid for it or spoke for it.
Dan. 12 AND AT THAT TIME shall Michael stand up which is sign for tribulation to begin the time of trouble such as never was, etc., when he will show favour to all who are the Daniel anointed seed on the earth & deliverance to all whose names are in the Book of Rememberance as in Malachi 3.
It's a real joy to write you these things, though I know you can't grasp it very clear. It has cost me 43 years suffering more or less to be where , who & what I am, but only that I might be able to offer all on the earth a chance to share His victory won only by His grace & mercy.
Rev. is like the sum of all the prophets ever had revealed for their comfort in the days of suffering, but kept sealed till the time when it was fulfilled. The war of 1914 was the beginning of things done & the 7 angels sowed all the Epochs till it's finished, & we wait confidently for the 6th angel sounding about armistice 11th Nov. What we see in Italy & Abyssinia is but the prelude to the great storm.
So let nothing worry you or upset you, but get a good grip of what has been revealed & let it out to all. Don't mind how they receive it, that's their business., ours to offer the call & hand of friendship as in Rev. I, knowing what events every proud and wicked heart on the earth. Malachi 4 is very clear & comprehensive.
I was very pleased to hear all your experiences & send my love & best wishes to all. I have not heard from Eddie & co. for quite a year. They tried to draw me into their schism but I knew they were only covering up their own folly like many others in Testimony.
My Love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
P.S. Jesus was born of a virgin & labelled a bastard by Jews, Greeks & Romans to reveal the secrets of men's hearts, made himself of no reputation, & etc., became a stumbling stone & rock of offence. But produced a good seed & explains why pentecost was possible to them, while the R.P. & E. rejected him in toto. Such had been the marks on all His anointed human seed & in proportion of their anointed have been made sinners in men's eyes to reveal the wicked. You can see in Judea how difficult it was to reveal him & find him out of his own accord. The tree of life in the garden is kept by cherubims with a flaming sword of scandal which turns every way.
When you grasp these facts you will find it easy & joyous to read and understand why the prophets true suffered at the hands of the false prophets. It's the essence of wisdom of God in separating between the Cain & Abel of all ages & always painful to the man of His Choice & anointing. The devil the deceiver, & Satan the accuser are cherubims with the flaming sword & are the prince of the power of the air.
Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Hansens
October 25, 1935
My dear Hansens:
Thanks for 3 from you 2 which I prize very highly. I don't trouble about the foolishness of any. That's their business, not mine. We are here above all things to learn to forgive as God forgives; and from the cradle to the grave, we and all man on the earth, are exercised daily and hourly; as well drive a hungry, famishing person from the table or fire, as to refuse to forgive. And you have found the only solution to all human problems, in having found out the need, and in being willing to forgive.
The Devil's only cure for human ills and troubles, is to accuse, condemn, scandalize, hate, hurt, and kill. The commandments and example as Jesus gives, is like the fire screen, which keeps the children from falling in the fire, which burns and causes suffering and scars. I still groan when I remember many of my follies. But He heals, where others would hurt and accuse.
All our sins and follies is but proof of what He says we are in Adam, or by our human nature, while all that Jesus has revealed, is what He purposes to make us when finished, if we will let Him work in us to will and do of His own good pleasure. So cheer up and let the world know we Overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of our Testimony, and loving not our lives to the death. Rev. 12.
So let nothing shut your mouths. We are not troubled about the Devil-possessed who are always like a roaring lion around us, seeking whom he may devour. You can see the war started, which will rid the earth of all who are the oppressing, killing seed on the earth. Here is the patience and faith of the saints.
So if your hearts are sweetened by your experience, not of the fire - but of the Healing of His Grace, Love, Mercy, and forgiveness, it only proves that all things work for our good who are called according to His purpose, that of being made after the Image of His Son.
My love to both and all others,
Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Berglinds
November 22, 1935
My dear Berglinds:
Thanks for yours. Glad to hear June is feeling better, and no matter what people are, say or do, our job as His Sons and Servants by whom the Spirit witnesses to the simple or ignorant, the scorners and fools who hate knowledge, who are outside the R. P. & E. camp, we are showing that we have the same wisdom Solomon had when he prophesied in Prov. 1 for these days. Notice vs. 20-23, how it describes our witness and the results to follow in vs. 24-32, while vs. 33 shows the nature of - Hearkeneth in Peace and Safety - while Omega wrath is poured out on all who refuses to hear and obey the Spirit.
People forget that in hearing the Message from the Throne by the Spirit, it’s God speaking to them and holding out a friendly hand, and in refusing what the Spirit of God prompts us to do, they are refusing the Godhead though it’s done through our lips and persons. The Devil always uses the high-ups and cultured man to deceive.
Noah, in his farmer- carpenter manner of life and way of speech, was not known as a Prophet till the flood came and took them all away. Abram was the Prophet who dared not go down to Sodom. But the Dead Sea is a monument to remind the world that Abram was the Prophet. There was plenty of Religious leaders in Sodom, for they had plenty of Bread and Pleasure in the 5 cities of the plain. But no use for the Bread and Water by the Prophet, or Lot or the 2 angels He sent to warn them, and sent low, brutish men to dishonor the Servants.
You notice Jerusalem, the great city where also our Lord was crucified, is Spiritually called Sodom and Egypt, as in Rev. 11:, reminds us that Jerusalem today and when they kill the 2 witnesses, is just like Sodom and Egypt when Moses and Abram were the Prophets - where the 2 witnesses will witness to them. Jesus said, as it was in Noah and Abram’s day, so shall it be in the days of the Son of Man bearing witness to Omega Wrath coming on the earth. The Jews today are making money out of the potash in the Dead Sea, the ashes of the destroyed people now being used for manure.
So when men won’t hear the Message of the Angel of Rev. 22, they are only doing what was done in all other ages and which Solomon in Prov. 1 says would be. So our joy does not depend on them, but in being able to hear and bear witness to any we can reach. It proves we are wise virgins with Oil in our vessels and good and faithful Servants as in Matt. 25. Read Ps. 45 to 72 which are specially for these days and you will get much fresh comfort and assurance.
My love to all there,
Wm. Irvine
William Irvine's Letter to Dunbars, Placentia, Calif.

PO Box 696, Jerusalem, Palestine
Dear Dunbars & Co.
Thanks for yours. It was good to see all your faces in photo and to hear of the 5000 simple scorners and fools which cover them all to whom the Wisdom of God has been to them in your call and out-stretched hand, just when we were reading Proverbs 1, by the Spirit & Song of Songs - our song of the Bride today, suggested in the Italy -Ethiopian wars.
The wind, electric fires and frost in California has been all in line with Helena, one of W. Edwards resting places ere coming to California, and the whole East shaken - as well as California, home of the Woman Body. While the 11-11-11 proved to be the beginning of East and West trouble. Egypt, Syria and Palestine have all had anti-mandate activities. Riots in Egypt, bandits in Palestine and conspiracy in Syria, all pointing one way, and revealing His wrath in all and many varied forms, which but adds to our joy and confidence in Him. You can see what we got out of Italy - Ethiopia war in Prov.1 and Song of Songs, with Psalm 45 to 73, all full of comfort to the Blood Royal, and death, misery and despair to His and our enemies. So the enemies of the Bride are also those of the Bridegroom hastening His coming.
I had letters today from San Diego to Vancouver, and all the way across Canada, England, Ireland and Scotland and all in good heart, while reporting troubles of every sort to those who refuse and despise His Wisdom by the voice and hand of His witnesses. Tourist trade here and in the whole Near East is dead, while the war hatred and spirit is ripe, and it covers the whole Earth in one form or another, sanctions has spread increased hatred everywhere. Japan and China have their own end of it also
You will find Psalms 45 to 50 very direct, and also the last Psalm of David's prayer - Psalm 65 to 72. Psalm 71, is too like my wail, for anyone to rob me of its comfort as the Son of David for today, or of His root and offspring. But who can doubt all the tender mercies of David which made him suffer and write those Psalms for our comfort and encouragement . And so our enemies can only have their reward, for what they have been to all who ever were His Anointed.
Its tragic and comical to hear all the various readings of the Scripture for today, when they are so simple to all who have ear and heart for Man and Message of Revelation, which is like a key to opening the Treasure House of God- or His promises which cover all our needs and those of all who will ever give ear to the Message from the Throne by the Man, the Woman, or the two witnesses and the 144,000, by whom the news is offered to the ends of the Earth.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine

Box 696 P. O.
Jerusalem, Palestine
December 5, 1935
My Dear Dunbars,
Thanks for 3 from you. As the clouds darken, the morning light or morning star shines brighter & brighter to the full sunshine of a new and better day for all who are the meek of the earth. How R.P. & E. people hate to hear of all the great & marvellous work in wrath, showing how rebellious they areas He cuts the ground from under their feet FOREVER, while the ROCK on which we stand firmer and more sure footing.
Roosey’s assurance of prosperity was well answered in wind, fire, frost & quakes in U.S.A., not to speak of the hurricanes in the S. which made him glad to get back to shore from his fishing bluff trip. But the 24 billion will stand as a Tombstone to his memory as surely as the Dead Sea reminds us of Abram the prophet who Sodom & G would not hear; his Thanksgiving verses he mentioned the one Higher as if he were afraid to mention God or the almighty as is usual in Government notices.
How many presidents and rulers of the earth the Carpenter has seen come and go, & only when we contrast them & their methods with Him who rules the universe, can we see how abominable their methods (all) are, & it also helps us to see how pleasant it is for the trinity to have even one or a few with heart as His, in beholding the works of the proud & wicked doers on the earth. But we know He is sealing the 144,000 who will be glad to come and hear the 2 witnesses & the woman & take the new everlasting Gospel to the ends of the earth & gather a great crowd to welcome Him when He comes & not one of the R.P. & E. left even to frown on Him or His.
From the cradle to the grave we offend or are offended by others everyday – either to fall a victim to the Devil by his many serpent seed on the earth or our own selfish nature, & become the despisers & accuser – angry with our brothers & a fallen countenance, or to learn to forgive, & so have hope of forgiveness. We often wonder why people have no ears or eyes for God by any of His methds of teaching them, but see in this what makes Cain & Esaw seed who cut themselves off from any hope because of their pride & wickedness. Matt. 18 becomes more wonderful as we read it in this light.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine.
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Kerrs
December 8, 1935
My dear Kerrs (3):
Thanks for yours. It's a long journey to look back on since we were giving the world Alpha offer and warning and now to see where we are and the more definite message for these days in fulfilling what Alpha was, but the warning of Rev. 22:6-7, and 16 is all too clear to anyone who truly has heart enough to hear what the Spirit witnesses to the world.
Though the Least and Little Ones are few and feeble, we can see the Terrible results to the whole Daniel 2 Image and Babylon of Rev. 17 and 18, while the 2 witnesses and woman will become the center for the 144,000, who will be the New Spiritual Israel, the seed of Abram in that they have ears and heart to obey and by them the great multitude will be gathered from the ends of the earth to welcome His coming. The proud and wicked must perish. The Meek of the earth will be redeemed and gathered. So our efforts are not so pointless, as many are apt to think. People are very ready to look back or up, but fall over those in whom the Spirit of God dwells, who is and always has been the test.
The living God, speaking in and by the Least and little ones is more value than in Noah or Abraham, for they will offer Salvation and deliverance to the whole world as well as the destruction of the proud and wicked doers who will not hear God's Spirit speaking in any age. The Flood was proof that Noah was a prophet. The dead Sea, 125 x 25 miles of the saltiest water on the Earth in the Lowest Basin on the Earth, 1300 feet deep and 1300 feet below Sea Level, and now the Jews taking the potash left, and by the burning of the 5 cities of the plains, proving Abraham was the Prophet of his day, and his words were God's warning to men about to perish as a sample of conditions now at hand. Plenty of Bread, Idleness, and Religion in those cities, very much what we see in the world today, and yet to be destroyed as surely as Sodom. Plain simple scriptural facts for all who will hear what the Spirit saith to those who profess to have ears - though many may not have.
My love in Him,
Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Adams
December 8, 1935
My dear Adams:
Thanks for yours. Glad you are keeping better and improving. These conditions may be helpful for us to draw out the idle words from many who have heard and not heeded. The surer our hope as we see the world dead, deaf, and blind, and most so amongst those who pretend the most and have had the greatest privilege. I have enjoyed much the purifying, making white and trying all who hear, or profess to hear by the various forms of Testing for all to see whether Matt. 18 conditions are really found in them. This chapter has very simple and subtle truth in it - cutting off of hand, foot, and plucking out of right eye seems to fit into the conditions of purifying, making white, and trying, that they may understand the heart and mind of God, so difficult in our days. But if people are worthy of such marks, you will see how tenderly He will feel and think about those who have suffered that others may benefit.
The virgins, good and faithful, and wicked servants, will all be finding out where they are, and why. The virgins, whether they have oil or no oil. The Servants adding to or losing out. We can't see at once what’s taking place, but it will become more manifest as the days pass.
I hope you can see how Psalms, Proverbs, Eccles., and Song of Songs are all the words for the music in the hearts of all who have the Spirit when the works are being done in finishing up the long suffering and period preparatory to His coming into His own - as purposed from the foundation of the world - when all who have ever been hungry enough to welcome and value His gifts of Sonship and service and paying the price In their short probation period on the Earth, which explains the WHY of the Saints - How long O Lord - In Heaven, which will be keener than even our impatience on the Earth, to end the seed whose chief marks is to accuse, scandalize, despise, and persecute. To think of a world, 1000 years of Eternity, where there will be no such marks, but where the fruit of the Spirit will mark all, from the Least to the greatest. Most people's idea of Heaven is what they will get, whereas our joy will be in giving to others what God has been and will be Forever, and finding no Joy but in giving, rather than in getting.
All His giving of Love, Grace, Mercy, and Peace is but to make us of the same nature He has revealed in Jesus and given us to taste by the Spirit - in spite of our human selfish nature. I wish all there a true Xmas in sharing and sharing with others His anointing and it’s fruits.
My love to all,
Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: John Byers
December 12, 1935
Jerusalem, Palestine
My dear John and family:
Thanks for yours. The Law in the Kingdom of God, or in those who are being made partakers of His nature, is grace, spontaneous and voluntary on His part and on our part. The human or carnal, is self-centered and self-seeking, and entirely at variance with Divine. The human can always rob us and God of what is eternal, by it's aggressive, selfish claims which are but Vanity, and crowd out the things and claims of God.
It's the legitimate human claims, which are most deadly in hindering. Rev. 3:20 is probably the simplest way of putting His claims today. "Behold, I stand at the door and knock" - the Godward. "If any man hear my voice and open the door, I will come in to sup with him; and he with me." A very gracious, courteous way of becoming our guest, and sharing and using what is ours. And in exchange, offering us all that is His. But it is always a free voluntary matter, and no compulsion or obligation on either side. If it was human, it would be compulsory.
In Noah's day and Sodom's, it was all perfectly legitimate eating and drinking; marrying and giving in marriage; planting, building, buying, selling. But absolutely no time to hear the Voice of God through Noah or Abraham, and so the waters of death and fire consumed them to show how little value they were to God in the eternal purpose, and so today.
Even the depression has only added to their cares and worries, and is more of a test for their relationship to God's claim. We often think of God in Heaven, but fail to see that God is on the Earth as much as in Heaven, though only known to those who have ears to hear and heart to obey. The Devil and Satan by his serpent witness, changes what God has revealed into what suits themselves. They change God into a convenience in place of letting God change them into a convenience for Him.
When we read the Laodicean Chapter conditions, it's pitiful to contemplate. And how gracious are His words, "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten…" Be zealous therefore and turn from the conditions we see others perishing in and by, so that we may have a true living fellowship with Him in us, and we in Him. And it's always wise to err on His side, rather than as most do on our own.
My love and best wishes,
William Irvine
P.S. Season's Greetings, and don't allow pain or worry to rob you of His fellowship and grace. Wm. Irvine
Wm. Irvine's Letter To: Bakers
September 7, 1935
My dear Bakers (All):
Thanks for your letter. You have so much to thank God for, though you will only have a little foretaste of all it means; but you will find His Spirit give you peace, joy, comfort and hope which you never could have before, as you open your mouth wide to all you meet, and find the Spirit fill it with words and wisdom. If you had found satisfaction in the old Gospel of Alpha days, you would have been like the whole of Babylon described in Rev. 18, and its ministry as in Rev. 17. The Testimony bears all these marks, and was the 7 churches; my 21 years’ work in the various parts of the world, where my feet had trod as His Alpha Servant, and so became His Angel or sent one to them, to testify the Revelation Message, which is the program for the Judgment of all Nations and every man, separating into sheep and goats the whole world, by their attitude to the Man and Message of God by the Spirit on the earth, as God and Jesus are on the Throne.
Rev. 22 makes the whole matter very simple and clear and strong. The River flowing, as we hear and obey, so that the Living waters flow from our lips. The Tree of Life growing – now fruiting – while the leaves, or witness of the Living Branches, are for the healing of the smitten nations, or the hewing down of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil of the Garden. As one grows, the other is to fall away and perish from off the earth. Verses 3, 4, and 5 of Rev. 22 shows what will happen as the Tree of Life grows, and the old R.P. & E. corrupt tree perishes from off the earth.
Verse 6 – These sayings are faithful (or full of faith to all who hear and obey) and True, for the Spirit will seal them in all who hear and obey, and the Lord God of the Holy Prophets sent His angel to show unto His Servants who obey Him, the things which must shortly be done. Revelation and all the Truth for Judgment days was Sealed till the time of the End. “Behold, I come quickly,” refers to the days we are now in. Blessed is he that keepeth the sayings (by the Spirit) of the prophecy (or reading of the Spirit by the angel) of this Book.
Verses 8 and 9 shows us the meeting of John from Heaven, and His angel or Servant on the Earth (shortly). Verse 10, Seal not, open to all, the Sayings of the prophecy of this Book – Revelation; for the time is at hand. Verse 11 – the unjust, filthy, righteous, and holy, will all be tested by their attitude to the Message from the Throne by the sent angel. Verse 12 – rewards for every man, according to their hearing or refusing. Verse 13, I am Alpha, as I was to my disciples of old, who had ears for the Spirit’s Message then, and so again, and Omega the avenger and Judge of all who are the resisters of the Message, or the piercers, or those who bear the Matt. 23 marks today; the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
You can see how many hang on to what He was 1900 years ago, and reject His Message from the Throne. They profess to accept the first, and reject the last. Verse 14 – Blessed are they that keep His commandments of Revelation, in hearing and obeying and witnessing to these things, that they may have right, or be part of the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates (not over the wall) into the City.
Verse 15 – For without, or outside of those who hear and obey, are Dogs, and you will have plenty of proof. Sorcerers, who contradict all He says today, by quoting Scripture, as did the Scribes and Pharisees who crucified Jesus according to their reading of the Scriptures. Whoremongers who listen to and have fellowship with any of they who preach and get honor, place and power and reward. Murderers of the Cain sort who measure men by their sins and themselves by their righteousness.
John’s 1st Epistle shows them as they turn their back on their brother. Idolaters – those who look to leaders who have been produced by anything but being sent of God, all of whom loveth and maketh a lie, or who refuse, and contradict anything which is of God. Verse 16 – I, Jesus, have sent mine angel – or sent one – to Testify these things in the churches – not Babylon – but what was my work in Alpha 21 years up to 1914. The 7 churches of Asia was the work of Paul, and was made the basis for the churches of my labors.
Revelation is Prophecy which had no meaning till the time came. All they of Asia forsook Paul, and all the true apostles, and were dominated by the false. I am the Root and off-spring of all who are the David – or anointed seed – and the Bright and morning star, or the source of Light, leading into the New Day as in Mal. 4. Verse 17 – The Spirit and the Bride, or those who hear the Message of the Angel Sent One, are the Bride who say Come, and all who hear and are not the Bride say Come, and whosoever will may take of the Water of Life freely.
Verses 18 and 19. Jesus testifies to every man that heareth the words of the Prophecy by the Bride – or those who hear – if they add to or take from, it will be fatal to them, and evidence of not hearing and obeying Him. Verse 20 – He which testifieth these things, Saith (today) Behold I come quickly, (in the next 7 years), and all who hear and obey say, “Even so, Come Lord Jesus.” The Spirit says, “The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all,” who hear and obey, but not one ray of hope or comfort for any others.
My Love and Best Wishes for all who bear your name,
Wm. Irvine
