The Mission of Bashan Hill
"Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old." "Feed thy people with thy rod:" The verb "feed" is to be understood as spiritual food, and that food (truth) is found in the "Rod," therefore we again have the command to give out the book ("Feed thy [God's] people)." Carmel, Bashan, and Gilead are used as symbols of good spiritual pasture. These places are where Israel had their victories. - Shepherd's Rod Vol. 1

"Hence to bind up the testimony among His disciples is to confirm "the Spirit of Prophecy" among them and them only. And to seal the law among them is to have the law authorized and fortified by Truth, to have them see the necessity of keeping it…." Timely Greetings, Vol. 2, No. 41 21-22
" God has a church upon the earth, who are His chosen people, who keep His commandments. . " - Maranatha 121.1
“Accordingly, this reformatory association, intestine to the Seventh-day Adventist organization, embraces an all-inclusive Scriptural fundamentalism. And it is necessarily endowed with Constitution and By-laws embodying the governmental principles and system of the fourfold succession of the Exodus movement, the Davidian monarchy, the Judges, and the Apostles, as illuminated by The Spirit of Prophecy in the following passages revealing that God is the center of authority and that men of His appointment are the administrators of His law:” The Leviticus p. 14: 2
"Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the midst of Carmel: It is, therefore, useless to agitate revivals and reformations while one knows not what and how actually to revive or to reform. It is commendable to hold up the standard but it certainly is not in God's order for one to 'work up' something and to call it revival and reformation.
"In conclusion, let us summarize the two main points which our study of the afternoon has definitely made clear to us: (1) That a work and movement similar to those of Zechariah's day is successfully to bring revival and reformation among God's people of today, that those who expect the promised blessings must whole-heartedly enter into it. (2) That without the living Spirit of Prophecy in our midst, there can be no success in any revival and reformation, and that the sooner we know it the quicker we shall achieve our goal."
