Daniel chapter one, represents the first angel’s message, and chapter two represents the second angel’s message. In prophetic symbolism, the first message is to fear God, the second message is to give God glory and the third message identifies the hour of judgment. Before we get directly into the second chapter of Daniel, a little review is required. The second angel’s message primarily identifies the fall of Babylon.

دانایل بابِ اوّل، پہلا فرشتہ کا پیغام ظاہر کرتا ہے، اور بابِ دوم دوسرا فرشتہ کا پیغام ظاہر کرتا ہے۔ نبوتی علامت میں، پہلا پیغام خدا سے ڈرنے کا ہے، دوسرا پیغام خدا کو جلال دینے کا ہے، اور تیسرا پیغام عدالت کے وقت کی نشان دہی کرتا ہے۔ اس سے پہلے کہ ہم براہِ راست دانایل کے دوسرے باب میں داخل ہوں، تھوڑا سا اعادہ ضروری ہے۔ دوسرے فرشتہ کا پیغام بنیادی طور پر بابل کے سقوط کی نشان دہی کرتا ہے۔

And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Revelation 14:8.

Ac na dhiaidh sin lean aingeal eile, ag rá: Tá an Bhablóin tite, tite, an chathair mhór úd, mar thug sí d’ól do na náisiúin uile de fhíon fheirge a striapachais. Nochtadh 14:8.

The second angel defines the fall of Babylon as the fact that she made “all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.” Her fall is in response to her committing fornication with all nations. The fornication is brought about through her false doctrines, which are represented as “wine.” The Catholic church is made up of many false teachings, but the false doctrine that is directly associated with her fall, is the false doctrine that produces her “wrath”. That doctrine is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. The Catholic church’s wrath, is her persecution of those she identifies as heretics. Her wrath is accomplished by her fornication with the kings of the earth. Without her connection with, and control over, the kings of the earth, she would not have the ability to persecute those she defines as heretics. Her second fall, is therefore marking the point in the future when she can once again exercise her wrath as she did in the past, that is brought about by her fornication with the kings of the earth. The kings of the earth enter into the unlawful relationship by drinking her lies. The fall of Babylon is announced for the final time in Revelation chapter eighteen.

દ્વિતીય દૂત બેબિલોનના પતનને આ રીતે વ્યાખ્યાયિત કરે છે કે તેણે “પોતાના વ્યભિચારના ક્રોધની દ્રાક્ષારસ સર્વ જાતિઓને પીવડાવ્યો.” તેનું પતન એ કારણે આવે છે કે તેણે સર્વ જાતિઓ સાથે વ્યભિચાર કર્યો છે. આ વ્યભિચાર તેના ખોટા સિદ્ધાંતો દ્વારા થાય છે, જેને “દ્રાક્ષારસ” તરીકે દર્શાવવામાં આવ્યા છે. કેથોલિક ચર્ચ અનેક ખોટી શિક્ષાઓથી રચાયેલ છે, પરંતુ જે ખોટો સિદ્ધાંત તેના પતન સાથે સીધો સંકળાયેલો છે, તે એવો ખોટો સિદ્ધાંત છે જે તેના “ક્રોધ”ને ઉત્પન્ન કરે છે. તે સિદ્ધાંત ચર્ચ અને રાજ્યના સંયોજનનો છે, જેમાં આ સંબંધ ઉપર ચર્ચનું નિયંત્રણ હોય છે. કેથોલિક ચર્ચનો ક્રોધ એ છે કે જેને તે વિધર્મીઓ તરીકે ઓળખાવે છે તેમનો તે ત્રાસ આપે છે. તેનો આ ક્રોધ પૃથ્વીના રાજાઓ સાથે તેના વ્યભિચાર દ્વારા કાર્યાન્વિત થાય છે. પૃથ્વીના રાજાઓ સાથેના તેના સંબંધ અને તેમના ઉપરના તેના નિયંત્રણ વિના, જેને તે વિધર્મી ગણાવે છે તેમનો ત્રાસ આપવા તેની પાસે શક્તિ ન હોત. તેથી તેનું બીજું પતન ભવિષ્યના એ બિંદુને ચિહ્નિત કરે છે જ્યારે તે ફરી એકવાર, ભૂતકાળની જેમ, પોતાના ક્રોધનો અમલ કરી શકે; અને આ પૃથ્વીના રાજાઓ સાથેના તેના વ્યભિચાર દ્વારા જ શક્ય બને છે. પૃથ્વીના રાજાઓ તેના અસત્યને પીવાથી આ ગેરકાયદેસર સંબંધમાં પ્રવેશે છે. બેબિલોનના પતનની છેલ્લી જાહેરાત પ્રકાશન ગ્રંથના અઢારમા અધ્યાયમાં કરવામાં આવે છે.

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. Revelation 18:1–6.

U mpremano pa yiinhla ndzi vone ntsumi yin’wana yi xika hi le tilweni, yi ri ni matimba lamakulu; kutani misava yi voningeriwa hi ku kwetsima ka yona. Kutani yi huwelela hi rito lerikulu, yi ku: Babilona lontsongo lerikulu riwile, riwile, naswona ri hundzuke vutshamo bya mademona, ni xisirhelelo xa moya wun’wana ni wun’wana lowu nyamaka, ni khotso ra tinyanyana hinkwato leti nga basangiki ni leti vengiwaka.

Nhlavutelo 18:1–6.

The probationary cup of the Catholic church ended in 1798, but she is to repeat the persecution she accomplished in the Dark Ages, during the soon-coming Sunday law crisis.

Katolik kilisesinin deneme kâsesi 1798 yılında doldu; ancak o, yakında gelecek Pazar günü yasası krizi sırasında, Karanlık Çağlar’da gerçekleştirdiği zulmü yeniden tekrarlayacaktır.

Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. Revelation 2:20–22.

Dutay nümä, säniň üstüňde birnäçe şikaýatym bar: çünki sen özüni pygamber aýal diýip atlandyrýan şol Izebeli goýberýärsiň; ol Meniň hyzmatkärlerime ahlaksyzlyk etmegi we butlara gurban edilen zatlardan iýmegi öwredýär hem olary azdyrýar. Men oňa öz ahlaksyzlygyndan toba etmegi üçin wagt berdim, emma ol toba etmedi. Ine, Men ony düşege ýatyraryn, onuň bilen zyna edýänleri-de, eger öz edýän işlerine toba etmese, uly muşakgata salararyn. Ylham 2:20–22.

She was given twelve hundred and sixty years to repent and she refused. The three and a half years of drought that led to Mount Carmel, was given to Jezebel to repent, but she also refused. At the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States, the first of the kings of the earth that commit fornication with her in the last days is the United States, the earth beast of Revelation thirteen. It then has filled the cup of its probationary time.

Iye angoapi afọ iri n’akụkụ narị abụọ na iri isii ka o chegharịa, ma o jụrụ. Afọ atọ na ọkara nke ụkọ mmiri ozuzo ahụ nke dugara n’Ugwu Kamel, e nyere Jezebel ka o chegharịa, ma ọ jụkwara.

“The greatest and most favored nation upon the earth is the United States. A gracious Providence has shielded this country, and poured upon her the choicest of Heaven’s blessings. Here the persecuted and oppressed have found refuge. Here the Christian faith in its purity has been taught. This people have been the recipients of great light and unrivaled mercies. But these gifts have been repaid by ingratitude and forgetfulness of God. The Infinite One keeps a reckoning with the nations, and their guilt is proportioned to the light rejected. A fearful record now stands in the register of Heaven against our land; but the crime which shall fill up the measure of her iniquity is that of making void the law of God.

“Lë jëfandikoo ak gëna ñu bëgg ci xeetu xeeti réew yi ci kow suuf si mooy États-Unis. Yàlla ju baax te di sàmm réew mii, te mu sotti ci kawam yépp yi gëna tànn ci barkey Asamaan.

“Between the laws of men and the precepts of Jehovah will come the last great conflict of the controversy between truth and error. Upon this battle we are now entering,—a battle not between rival churches contending for the supremacy, but between the religion of the Bible and the religion of fable and tradition. The agencies which will unite against truth and righteousness in this contest are now actively at work.” Spirit of Prophecy, volume 4, 398.

“Waray mga balaud han mga tawo ngan han mga tulumanon ni Jehova maaabot an ultimo nga daku nga panagsangka han kontrobersya butnga han kamatuoran ngan sayop. Hini nga girra nasulod na kita yana,—usa nga girra diri butnga han magkaribal nga mga iglesia nga nagpapakigbisog para han pagkalabaw, kundi butnga han relihiyon han Biblia ngan han relihiyon han sugilanon ngan tradisyon. An mga ahensya nga mag-uusa kontra han kamatuoran ngan pagkamatadong hini nga panagsangka nagbubuhat na yana hin aktibo.” Spirit of Prophecy, tomo 4, 398.

At the Sunday law, the mark of the beast is enforced, thus “making void the law of God.” Before the Sunday law, the image of the beast is formed within the United States. The Sunday law arrives at a point in time, but the formation of the image of the beast is a period of time. That period of time is the prophetic period represented by Daniel’s lifespan as represented by the seventy years of captivity in Daniel chapter one. Those seventy years began with Jehoiakim, symbolizing when the first message was empowered on September 11, 2001, and ended with the making void the law of God, as represented by the “decree” of Cyrus.

در قانون یک‌شنبه، نشان وحش تحمیل می‌گردد، و بدین‌سان «شریعت خدا را باطل می‌سازد.» پیش از قانون یک‌شنبه، صورتِ وحش در درون ایالات متحده شکل می‌گیرد. قانون یک‌شنبه در مقطعی از زمان فرا می‌رسد، اما شکل‌گیریِ صورتِ وحش دوره‌ای از زمان است. آن دورهٔ زمانی، همان دورهٔ نبوی‌ای است که به‌وسیلهٔ عمر دانیال، آن‌گونه که در هفتاد سالِ اسارت در باب نخست دانیال نمایان شده است، نمود یافته است. آن هفتاد سال با یهویاقیم آغاز شد، که نمادِ زمانی است که نخستین پیام در ۱۱ سپتامبر ۲۰۰۱ اقتدار یافت، و با باطل ساختنِ شریعت خدا به پایان رسید، چنان‌که در «فرمان» کوروش بازنمایی شده است.

The history of Daniel’s prophetic life of seventy years is symbolic of several lines of prophecy. It represents the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. It represents a three-step testing process that is illustrated in the three angels of Revelation fourteen, and represents the structure of the Hebrew word “truth.” It represents the purification of the sons of Levi that is accomplished by the messenger of the covenant. It is represented by Christ twice cleansing the temple. It is represented by the progressive apostasy within Jerusalem in Ezekiel chapters eight and nine. It also represents the history where the image of the beast is formed in the United States.

Istoria vieții profetice a lui Daniel, de șaptezeci de ani, este simbolică pentru mai multe linii de profeție. Ea reprezintă timpul sigilării celor o sută patruzeci și patru de mii. Ea reprezintă un proces de încercare în trei pași, ilustrat în cei trei îngeri din Apocalipsa paisprezece, și reprezintă structura cuvântului ebraic „adevăr”. Ea reprezintă curățirea fiilor lui Levi, împlinită de solul legământului. Ea este reprezentată prin faptul că Hristos a curățit Templul de două ori. Ea este reprezentată prin apostazia progresivă din Ierusalim, din Ezechiel capitolele opt și nouă. De asemenea, ea reprezintă istoria în care chipul fiarei este format în Statele Unite.

The image of the beast is also represented by the fornication of Jezebel with Ahab, the fornication of Herod with Herodias, the golden calf of Aaron’s rebellion, the two counterfeit worship temples of Jeroboam located in Bethel and Dan, the prophets of Baal and the prophets of Ashtaroth in the story of Mount Carmel. The only definition of the image of the beast in the writings of Ellen White is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. That issue of a church ruling over the state is the essence of what the sacred document, which is the Constitution of the United States, was designed to guard against. When the principle of the separation of church and state is discarded by the earth beast at the soon-coming Sunday law, the completed union of church and state in the United States will be accomplished.

La imagen de la bestia también está representada por la fornicación de Jezabel con Acab, la fornicación de Herodes con Herodías, el becerro de oro de la rebelión de Aarón, los dos templos de adoración falsificada de Jeroboam ubicados en Betel y Dan, los profetas de Baal y los profetas de Astarot en la historia del monte Carmelo. La única definición de la imagen de la bestia en los escritos de Elena de White es la combinación de la iglesia y el Estado, con la iglesia en control de la relación. Ese asunto de una iglesia que gobierna sobre el Estado es la esencia misma de aquello contra lo cual el documento sagrado, que es la Constitución de los Estados Unidos, fue concebido para proteger. Cuando el principio de la separación entre la iglesia y el Estado sea desechado por la bestia de la tierra en la ley dominical que pronto ha de venir, se habrá consumado en los Estados Unidos la unión completa de la iglesia y el Estado.

From September 11, 2001 until the Sunday law in the United States there is a visual test, which is based upon students of prophecy recognizing the formation of the image of the beast. We are now at the very end of that process. In the process of forming the image of the beast there are several movements that contribute to the full development at the Sunday law, where the mark of the beast is enforced. There are political movements, religious movements, social movements and financial movements. Notice the events that are referenced in connection with the formation of the image of the beast in the following passage.

Kuukaat September 11, 2001 huma Sunday law it United States gi visual test, nga nakabase it pagkilala it mga studyante it prophecy sa pormasyon it image of the beast. Yanda, aada kita sa pinakahuling tumoy it ina nga proseso. Sa proseso it pagporma it image of the beast, may pilang mga pagkiyus nga nagaambag sa bug-os nga pag-uswag sa Sunday law, sa diin ginapatuman ro mark of the beast. May mga pamulitika nga pagkiyus, mga relihiyoso nga pagkiyus, mga panlipunan nga pagkiyus, ag mga pinansyal nga pagkiyus. Pansina ro mga hitabo nga ginatukoy kaangot sa pagporma it image of the beast sa masunod nga sipi.

“Already preparations are advancing, and movements are in progress, which will result in making an image to the beast. Events will be brought about in the earth’s history that will fulfill the predictions of prophecy for these last days” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 976.

«Akkam qophoynni qophettanau geeshshiya, qassi dooyettay kaallidi de7iya; hegeetu gaason do7aa aykkookko medhinethaa misile medhiisaanau gakkana. Ha wurssetha gallassatuy yootettida qaalaa timirttaa polettanau, sa7aa taarikiyan hanana hanoteti medhettana» The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 976.

The formation of the image of the beast involves an advancing preparation that includes “events” and “movements,” both in the plural. The history represented by Daniel’s seventy years of captivity began with Jehoiakim, and ended with the decree of Cyrus. Jesus illustrates the end of a thing with the beginning of a thing, and there is a “decree” that represents the beginning of the period that Daniel’s seventy prophetic years typifies. That “decree” was the USA Patriot Act, which was publicly premised upon the attack of Islam of the third woe. But unlike the dictatorial executive orders of Abraham Lincoln in the Civil War, or Franklin Roosevelt in World War Two, the Patriot Act is still in force, and will most likely be reinforced and strengthened as hostilities with global Islam increase. The executive orders of both the Civil and Second World War ended with the end of hostilities, but there will be no end of hostilities with global Islam, but rather, escalating terror attacks around the world.

Формирането на образа на звяра включва напредваща подготовка, която включва „събития“ и „движения“, и двете в множествено число. Историята, представена чрез седемдесетте години на плен според Даниил, започна с Йоаким и завърши с указа на Кир. Исус илюстрира края на едно нещо чрез началото на друго нещо, и има един „указ“, който представлява началото на периода, който Данииловите седемдесет пророчески години предобразяват. Този „указ“ беше Законът USA Patriot Act, който беше публично обоснован с нападението на исляма от третото горко. Но за разлика от диктаторските изпълнителни заповеди на Ейбрахам Линкълн по време на Гражданската война или на Франклин Рузвелт по време на Втората световна война, Patriot Act все още е в сила и най-вероятно ще бъде затвърден и засилен с нарастването на враждебните действия от страна на глобалния ислям. Изпълнителните заповеди както от Гражданската война, така и от Втората световна война приключиха с края на военните действия, но няма да има край на военните действия с глобалния ислям, а по-скоро ескалиращи терористични нападения по целия свят.

There are two primary legal philosophies within Western culture. English Law and Roman Law. The premise of English Law is that a person is innocent until proven guilty, and the premise of Roman Law is that a person is guilty until proven innocent. The USA Patriot Act is a classic example of Roman Law, and stands in direct opposition to English Law. This is one of those “events” that would be brought about in the formation of the image of the beast. If the United States is going to become the image of Catholicism, Catholic religious and political philosophy would need to be established in the United States in advance of the enforcement of the mark of the beast.

“This subject is urging itself upon my mind. Consider it; for it is a matter of vast importance. With which of these two classes shall we identify our interest? We are now making our choice, and we shall soon discern between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not. Read the fourth chapter of Malachi, and think about it seriously. The day of God is right upon us. The world has converted the church. Both are in harmony, and are acting upon a short-sighted policy. Protestants will work upon the rulers of the land to make laws to restore the lost ascendency of the man of sin, who sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. The Roman Catholic principles will be taken under the care and protection of the State. This national apostasy will speedily be followed by national ruin. The protest of Bible truth will be no longer tolerated by those who have made not the law of God their rule of life. Then will the voice be heard from the graves of martyrs, represented by the souls which John saw slain for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ which they held; then the prayer will ascend from every true child of God, ‘It is time, Lord, for thee to work: for they have made void thy law.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, January 1, 1900.

“Na tema ta urgí insistí riba mi mente. Konsider’é; pasobra ta un asunto di inmenso importansia. Ku kua di e dos klase aki nos lo identifiká nos interés? Awor nos ta hasi nos eskohensa, i pronto nos lo distinguí entre esun ku ta sirbi Dios i esun ku no ta sirbi’E. Lesa e kuater kapítulu di Malaquías, i pensa riba dje seriamente. E dia di Dios ta mes riba nos. E mundu a konvertí e iglesia. Tur dos ta na armonía, i ta aktua segun un polítika di vista kòrtiku. Protestantenan lo influensiá e gobernantenan di e tera pa hasi leynan pa restaurá e predominio perdi di e homber di peká, ku ta sintá den e tempel di Dios, mustrando su mes ku el ta Dios. E prinsipionan Católiko-Romano lo wordu tuma bou kuido i protekshon di e Estado. E apostasía nasional aki lo ser sigui rápidamente pa ruina nasional. E protesta di berdat bíbliko no lo wordu tolerá mas dor di esnan ku no a hasi di e lei di Dios nan regla di bida. E ora ei lo tende e bos for di e grafnan di e mártirnan, representá pa e almanan ku Juan a mira matá pa motibu di e palabra di Dios i e testimonio di Hesukristo ku nan tabatin; e ora ei e orashon lo subi for di kada yu berdadero di Dios, ‘Ta tempu, Señor, pa Bo aktua: pasobra nan a anulá Bo lei.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, 1 di yanüari, 1900.

The previous passage marks the time when “Roman Catholic principles will be taken under the care and protection of the State,” as occurring at the Sunday law. The Sunday law is the end of the symbolic period that began on September 11, 2001. The Patriot Act at the beginning, typifies the Sunday law at the end. Two of the events that are brought about in order to form the image of the beast was the arrival of the third Woe, and the subsequent Patriot Act.

Ayat nauna in tanda dayon han panahón nga an “mga prinsipyo han Romano Katoliko kakarawaton ha ilarom han pag-ataman ngan panalipod han Estado,” nga nahitatabo ha balaod han Domingo. An balaod han Domingo amo an katapusan han simboliko nga panahón nga nagtitikang han Septyembre 11, 2001. An Patriot Act ha tinikangan nagtitipo han balaod han Domingo ha katapusan. Duha han mga hitabo nga iginpapahinabo basi maporma an larawan han mananap amo an pag-abot han ikatulo nga Kairo, ngan an sinundan nga Patriot Act.

The formation of the image of the beast is the test where our eternal destiny will be decided, and it comes in advance of the Sunday law. At the Sunday law our probation as Seventh-day Adventists closes, and it is there that the visible seal is impressed and the ensign uplifted. The formation of the image of the beast occurs before the Sunday law, before the visible sealing, and before the close of probation.

Ang pagkaporma sa larawan ng halimaw amo ang pagsulay nga sa diin pagahukman ang aton walay katapusan nga kapalaran, kag ini nagaabot antes sang balaod bahin sa Dominggo. Sa balaod bahin sa Dominggo nagasira ang aton panahon sang pagtilaw bilang mga Seventh-day Adventist, kag didto ginatatak ang makita nga tatak kag ginapataas ang bandila. Ang pagkaporma sa larawan sang halimaw nagakahitabo antes sang balaod bahin sa Dominggo, antes sang makita nga pagtak-op, kag antes sang pagsira sang panahon sang pagtilaw.

“The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. Your position is such a jumble of inconsistencies that but few will be deceived.

“Өкүмчи маңа наһайити ениқ көрситип бәрдики, вәһшийниң сүрити синақ муддити ахирлашқучә шәкилләндүрүлиду; чүнки у Худаниң хәлқигә беғишланған улуқ синақ болуп, уларниң әбәдий тәқдири шу арқилиқ бәлгиләнәду. Сизниң мәйданиңиз шунчә бир-биригә уйғун кәлмәйдиған нәрсиләрниң арилашмисики, аздин-аз киши алдиниду.

“In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].

«Nukuat 13-pe ko qaritana owaq wayllin qillqasqa kachkan; [Nukuat 13:11–17, nisqa].»

“This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

“Akaa ne nsɔhwɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn man no fa mu ansa na wɔasɔw wɔn ano. Wɔn a wɔde mmara a ɔde mae no so a wɔhwɛɛ so, na wɔampene sɛ wobegyina sabat a ɛnyɛ nokware so, no, wobegyina Awurade Onyankopɔn Yehowa frankaa no ase, na wobegye Onyankopɔn teasefo no nsɔw ano. Na wɔn a wɔbɛpa ɔsoro fi mu nokware no akyi na wɔagye Kwasida sabat no atom no, wobegye aboa no agyirae no” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

The period of time for the formation of the image of the beast was represented by Daniel’s seventy years of captivity. Daniel first passed the test of fearing God, by choosing to eat only God’s food. Daniel’s first test was a dietary test. Daniel’s second test was a visual test that occurred at the end of a testing period of ten days of eating God’s diet, as opposed to eating the diet of Babylon. The success of that diet was manifested in Daniel’s physical appearance. The second test is a visual test. The first test is a dietary test. Daniel manifested his faith, and passed the first test, but in the second test, Daniel could not see in advance if he was going to appear “fatter and fairer” than those who ate Babylon’s diet. There are always people who look tremendous, but eat garbage, and there are conscientious health reformers that look like walking death.

Muda wa kuumbwa kwa sanamu ya mnyama uliwakilishwa na miaka sabini ya utumwa ya Danieli. Danieli kwanza alipita jaribio la kumcha Mungu, kwa kuchagua kula chakula cha Mungu pekee. Jaribio la kwanza la Danieli lilikuwa jaribio la lishe. Jaribio la pili la Danieli lilikuwa jaribio la kuona lililotokea mwishoni mwa kipindi cha majaribu cha siku kumi cha kula lishe ya Mungu, kinyume na kula lishe ya Babeli. Mafanikio ya lishe hiyo yalidhihirishwa katika mwonekano wa kimwili wa Danieli. Jaribio la pili ni jaribio la kuona. Jaribio la kwanza ni jaribio la lishe. Danieli alidhihirisha imani yake, na akapita jaribio la kwanza, lakini katika jaribio la pili, Danieli hakuweza kuona mapema kama angeonekana “mnene zaidi na mzuri zaidi” kuliko wale waliokula lishe ya Babeli. Siku zote wapo watu wanaoonekana wa kuvutia sana, lakini hula takataka, na wapo warekebishaji wa afya waaminifu wanaoonekana kama mauti inayotembea.

The exercise of Daniel’s self-discipline and faith in the first test is what carried him through the second test, though the outcome of the second testing period was clouded in “darkness”. The Millerites who ate the little book on August 11, 1840, thereafter glorified God in the proclamation of the Midnight Cry message as the message swept over the land as a tidal wave. The second test is a visual test, which is preceded by a literal and spiritual dietary test and then followed by a prophetic litmus test. The second test requires a visual demonstration of the faith that was professed in the first test.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report. Hebrews 11:1, 2.

Daniel chapter two is a visual test, that is only successfully accomplished if the diet that was selected in the first test is actively applied to the testing process.

Даниялдың екінші тарауы — көзге көрсетілетін сынақ; ол бірінші сынақта таңдалған рухани қорек сынақ үдерісінде іс жүзінде қолданылған жағдайда ғана сәтті орындалады.

For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2:3, 4.

Aine son nera bardo wontonnũhũ yĩkĩrĩte, no mũthia-inĩ gĩgĩcookia kwaria, na gĩtiagũka; o na kĩngũgũrũka, gĩtindĩrĩre; nĩgũkorwo gĩgũũka kũna, gĩtigũgũrũka. Ta rora, ngoro yake ĩrĩa ĩyumĩte ndĩrĩa yagirĩire thĩinĩ wake; no mũrũme mũthingu nĩegũikara muoyo nĩ ũhoro wa wĩtĩkio wake. Habakkuk 2:3, 4.

The outcome of the second test is left in darkness in order to demonstrate if the professed faith of the first test was a genuine faith.

Nusëkët ne osäkasëna nushëngö ngotët ngoläm, tërë osetoda nunëk ne kosëstäna bëngö ne osäkasëna nogöta noaräkä tïngöta aingä.

“The special light given to John which was expressed in the seven thunders was a delineation of events which would transpire under the first and second angels’ messages. It was not best for the people to know these things, for their faith must necessarily be tested. In the order of God most wonderful and advanced truths would be proclaimed. The first and second angels’ messages were to be proclaimed, but no further light was to be revealed before these messages had done their specific work.” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 971.

It is divinely fitting that Daniel chapter two, is based upon an image, for it represents the test of the image of the beast. Those students of prophecy that recognized September 11, 2001 as a fulfillment of prophecy, symbolically ate the hidden book. They were then led back to the old paths of Adventism as they appear on the pioneer 1843 and 1850 Charts. The old paths identified the movement of the first angel, which they then were led to understand represented the movement of the third angel. All the precious revelations that they were led to understand came about by the understanding of the prophetic methodology that they received. That methodology was typified by the methodology of William Miller, that was confirmed when the first message of his history was empowered on August 11, 1840.

ពិតជាសមនឹងព្រះហឫទ័យជាអធិរូប ដែលជំពូកទីពីរនៃសៀវភៅដានីយ៉ែល ត្រូវបានស្ថាបនាលើរូបសំណាកមួយ ពីព្រោះវាតំណាងឲ្យការសាកល្បងនៃរូបសំណាករបស់សត្វសាហាវ។ សិស្សានុសិស្សនៃពាក្យទំនាយទាំងឡាយ ដែលបានទទួលស្គាល់ថ្ងៃទី 11 ខែកញ្ញា ឆ្នាំ 2001 ថាជាការបំពេញនៃពាក្យទំនាយ បានបរិភោគសៀវភៅលាក់កំបាំងនោះជានិមិត្តរូប។ បន្ទាប់មក ពួកគេត្រូវបានដឹកនាំឲ្យត្រឡប់ទៅកាន់ផ្លូវបុរាណនៃអាដវេនទីស៊ំ ដូចដែលផ្លូវទាំងនោះបានបង្ហាញនៅលើផែនទីឆ្នាំ 1843 និង 1850 របស់អ្នកត្រួសត្រាយ។ ផ្លូវបុរាណទាំងនោះបានកំណត់អត្តសញ្ញាណចលនារបស់ទេវតាទីមួយ ដែលបន្ទាប់មកពួកគេត្រូវបានដឹកនាំឲ្យយល់ថា តំណាងឲ្យចលនារបស់ទេវតាទីបី។ សេចក្តីបើកសម្ដែងដ៏មានតម្លៃទាំងអស់ ដែលពួកគេត្រូវបានដឹកនាំឲ្យយល់ បានកើតមានឡើងដោយសារការយល់ដឹងអំពីវិធីសាស្ត្រព្យាករណ៍ ដែលពួកគេបានទទួល។ វិធីសាស្ត្រនោះ ត្រូវបានបង្ហាញជានិមិត្តរូបដោយវិធីសាស្ត្ររបស់ William Miller ដែលត្រូវបានបញ្ជាក់ នៅពេលសារទីមួយនៃប្រវត្តិសាស្ត្ររបស់គាត់ ត្រូវបានប្រទានអំណាចនៅថ្ងៃទី 11 ខែសីហា ឆ្នាំ 1840។

In the year 1840 another remarkable fulfillment of prophecy excited widespread interest. two years before, Josiah Litch, one of the leading ministers preaching the second advent, published an exposition of Revelation 9, predicting the fall of the Ottoman Empire. According to his calculations, this power was to be overthrown . . . on the 11th of August, 1840, when the Ottoman power in Constantinople may be expected to be broken. And this, I believe, will be found to be the case.’

«Τῷ ἔτει 1840, ἄλλη ἀξιοσημείωτος ἐκπλήρωσις προφητείας ἐκίνησε εὐρείαν προσοχήν. Δύο ἔτη ἐνωρίτερον, ὁ Josiah Litch, εἷς ἐκ τῶν ἐπιφανεστέρων λειτουργῶν κηρυσσόντων τὴν δευτέραν παρουσίαν, ἐδημοσίευσε ἑρμηνείαν τῆς Revelation 9, προλέγων τὴν πτῶσιν τῆς Ottoman Empire. Κατὰ τοὺς ὑπολογισμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ἡ δύναμις αὕτη ἔμελλε νὰ καταβληθῇ... τῇ 11ῃ τοῦ Αὐγούστου, 1840, ὅτε ἡ ὀθωμανικὴ ἐξουσία ἐν Constantinople δύναται νὰ ἀναμένεται ὅτι θὰ συντριβῇ. Καὶ τοῦτο, πιστεύω, θὰ ἀποδειχθῇ ὅτι οὕτως ἔχει.»

“At the very time specified, Turkey, through her ambassadors, accepted the protection of the allied powers of Europe, and thus placed herself under the control of Christian nations. The event exactly fulfilled the prediction. When it became known, multitudes were convinced of the correctness of the principles of prophetic interpretation adopted by Miller and his associates, and a wonderful impetus was given to the advent movement. Men of learning and position united with Miller, both in preaching and in publishing his views, and from 1840 to 1844 the work rapidly extended.” The Great Controversy, 334, 335.

When men accepted September 11, 2001, as a fulfillment of prophecy, they were also “convinced of the correctness of the principles of prophetic interpretation adopted by” Future for America. The angel had descended with the hidden book and commanded those that would eat, to eat. The prophetic logic contained within the little book of the Millerite history, and the hidden book of our current history, is required to safely navigate the test of the formation of the image of the beast. But after eating, or assimilation of the prophetic methodology, the student must thereafter manifest a visual confirmation of what he had previously eaten. That act of faith must be manifested by a test which is navigated with an outcome that is “dark”.

اَکَر دمی‌ن 11 سِپتِمبر 2001 کو پیشین‌گویی کی تکمیل مان لیوا، تا انہیَں Future for America کی اختیار کی گئل پیغمبری تعبیر کے اصولن کی درستی پَر بھی “یقین آوا”۔ فرشتہ پوشیدہ کتاب لے کر اُترا اَور جِنہاں کھانا تھا، اُنہاں کھانَک حکم دیوا۔ میلرائٹ تاریخ کی چھوٹی کتاب اَور ہامری موجودہ تاریخ کی پوشیدہ کتاب کے اندر موجود پیغمبری منطق، حیوان کی صورت کی تشکیل کے امتحان سے بحفاظت گزرنے لئی لازم اے۔ لیکِن کھانَک، یا پیغمبری منہج کے جذب کرنَک بعد، طالبِ علم پَر لازم اے کہ وُہ بعد ازاں اُس چیز کی بصری تصدیق ظاہر کرے جیکے وُہ پہلے کھا چُکا تھا۔ اِس ایمان کے عمل کا ظہور ایک ایسے امتحان کے ذریعے ہونا لازم اے جِسے ایک ایسے انجام کے ساتھ عبور کیا جائے جو “تاریک” ہو۔

The prophetic rules of William Miller in the history of the first angel, combined with the prophetic keys that were established in the history of the third angel, allows students of prophecy to recognize that each of the three angels of Revelation fourteen brought with them a message in a little book that was to be eaten. The methodology they chose to eat allows those students to then see that when the angel of Revelation eighteen descended on September 11, 2001, he had a book that must be eaten in his hand, though it is not directly addressed in chapter eighteen.

نبوت کے طالبِ علموں کے لیے، پہلے فرشتے کی تاریخ میں ولیم ملر کے نبوی قواعد، تیسرے فرشتے کی تاریخ میں قائم ہونے والی نبوی کنجیوں کے ساتھ مل کر، اس امر کو پہچاننا ممکن بناتے ہیں کہ مکاشفہ چودہ کے تینوں فرشتوں میں سے ہر ایک اپنے ساتھ ایک چھوٹی کتاب میں ایک پیغام لایا تھا جسے کھایا جانا تھا۔ اسے کھانے کے لیے اُنہوں نے جو طریقۂ کار اختیار کیا، وہ اُن طالبِ علموں کو پھر یہ دیکھنے کے قابل بناتا ہے کہ جب مکاشفہ اٹھارہ کا فرشتہ 11 ستمبر 2001 کو نازل ہوا، تو اُس کے ہاتھ میں بھی ایک کتاب تھی جسے کھایا جانا لازم تھا، اگرچہ باب اٹھارہ میں اس کا براہِ راست ذکر نہیں کیا گیا۔

The angel had a hidden book in his hand. That prophetic logic is what Daniel represents when he chose to reject Babylonian food. That prophetic logic is what is necessary in order to see the formation of the image of the beast, for though we have been informed that there are “movements” and “events” that will be brought about in forming the image of the beast, we have also been informed that the movement for Sunday legislation is going on in “darkness.” We must have spiritual “night vision goggles” to be able to see their movements in the dark, for it is the formation of the image, but it is formed in “darkness”. It will only be recognized by the prophetic rules that the student of prophecy accepted when he recognized September 11, 2001, as a fulfillment of the arrival of the third Woe.

“God has revealed what is to take place in the last days, that His people may be prepared to stand against the tempest of opposition and wrath. Those who have been warned of the events before them are not to sit in calm expectation of the coming storm, comforting themselves that the Lord will shelter His faithful ones in the day of trouble. We are to be as men waiting for their Lord, not in idle expectancy, but in earnest work, with unwavering faith. It is no time now to allow our minds to be engrossed with things of minor importance. While men are sleeping, Satan is actively arranging matters so that the Lord’s people may not have mercy or justice. The Sunday movement is now making its way in darkness. The leaders are concealing the true issue, and many who unite in the movement do not themselves see whither the undercurrent is tending. Its professions are mild and apparently Christian, but when it shall speak it will reveal the spirit of the dragon. It is our duty to do all in our power to avert the threatened danger. We should endeavor to disarm prejudice by placing ourselves in a proper light before the people. We should bring before them the real question at issue, thus interposing the most effectual protest against measures to restrict liberty of conscience. We should search the Scriptures and be able to give the reason for our faith. Says the prophet: ‘The wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.’” Testimonies, volume 5, 452.

«Иман ахыркы күннәрдә нәрсә булачагын Үз халкы, каршылык һәм ачу давылына каршы торырга әзер булсын өчен, ачып бирде. Алда торган вакыйгалар турында кисәтелгәннәр киләчәк давылны тыныч кына көтеп утырмаска, Ходай афәт көнендә Үзенең тугрыларын сыендырыр дип үз-үзләрен юатмаска тиеш. Без үз Хуҗабызны көтүче кешеләр кебек булырга тиеш: бушка өметләнеп түгел, ә какшамас иман белән, ихлас хезмәттә. Хәзер акылыбызны әһәмияте аз булган нәрсәләр белән мәшгуль итәргә вакыт түгел. Кешеләр йоклаганда, Шайтан Ходай халкына шәфкать тә, гаделлек тә күрсәтелмәсен өчен, эшләрне актив рәвештә җайлый. Якшәмбе хәрәкәте хәзер караңгылыкта үзенә юл яра. Җитәкчеләр чын мәсьәләне яшерәләр, һәм бу хәрәкәткә кушылган күпләр үзләре дә эчке агымның кая таба барганын күрмиләр. Аның игъланнары йомшак һәм тышкы яктан мәсихче кебек күренә, әмма ул сөйләгәндә аждаһа рухын ачып күрсәтәчәк. Безнең бурыч — янаган хәвефне булдырмый калу өчен, көчебездән килгәннең барысын да эшләү. Без халык алдында үзебезне тиешле рәвештә күрсәтеп, тискәре карашны коралсызландырырга тырышырга тиеш. Без аларның алдына бәхәснең чын мәсьәләсен куярга тиеш, шулай итеп вөҗдан иреген чикләүче чараларга каршы иң нәтиҗәле протестны белдереп. Без Язмаларны тикшерергә һәм иманыбызның сәбәбен аңлатып бирә белергә тиеш. Пәйгамбәр болай ди: “Явызлар явызлык кылырлар, һәм явызларның һичбере аңламас; ә зирәкләр аңларлар”. Testimonies, volume 5, 452.»

Daniel represents the “wise” who can see the movement for Sunday legislation, even though it is going on in “darkness.” He can do so, for he passed the dietary test, before the visual test. The visual test of the formation of the image of the beast takes place in “darkness.”
