The sealing began on September 11, 2001 when the mighty angel of chapter eighteen of Revelation descended. His descent was typified by the descent of the angel of Revelation ten on August 11, 1840, and also by the descent of the Holy Spirit at Christ’s baptism. Christ’s baptism points forward to the latter rain descending when the great buildings of New York City were brought down. The power from above began, and also at that time the power from beneath (bottomless pit) would be manifested, for God’s Word never fails.

La scellature commença le 11 septembre 2001, lorsque l’ange puissant du chapitre dix-huit de l’Apocalypse descendit. Sa descente était préfigurée par la descente de l’ange d’Apocalypse dix, le 11 août 1840, et aussi par la descente du Saint-Esprit au baptême du Christ. Le baptême du Christ annonce d’avance la pluie de l’arrière-saison lorsqu’étaient abattus les grands édifices de la ville de New York. La puissance d’en haut commença, et aussi, en ce même temps, la puissance d’en bas (l’abîme) devait être manifestée, car la Parole de Dieu ne manque jamais.

When Christ was baptized, He immediately went into the wilderness and fasted for forty days, after which He was tempted by Satan with three temptations. Each of those three temptations represent primary characteristics of each of the three powers who lead the world to Armageddon. Those three temptations were pride, a characteristic of the dragon; appetite, a characteristic of the beast, and presumption, a characteristic of the false prophet. Pride and self-exaltation are represented by Lucifer in the classic description of Isaiah.

Quando Cristo foi batizado, foi imediatamente ao deserto e jejuou por quarenta dias, após o que foi tentado por Satanás com três tentações. Cada uma dessas três tentações representa características primárias de cada um dos três poderes que conduzem o mundo ao Armagedom. Essas três tentações foram o orgulho, característica do dragão; o apetite, característica da besta; e a presunção, característica do falso profeta. O orgulho e a exaltação própria são representados por Lúcifer na descrição clássica de Isaías.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms. Isaiah 14:12–16.

Ach, wie bist du vom Himmel gefallen, o Luzifer, Sohn der Morgenröte! Wie bist du zu Boden geschmettert, der du die Nationen schwächtest! Denn du sprachst in deinem Herzen: Ich will zum Himmel emporsteigen, ich will meinen Thron über die Sterne Gottes erhöhen; auch will ich mich setzen auf den Berg der Versammlung, an die äußersten Enden des Nordens; ich will emporsteigen über die Höhen der Wolken, ich will dem Höchsten gleich sein. Doch hinabgestürzt wirst du in den Scheol, an die äußersten Tiefen der Grube. Die dich sehen, werden dich scharf betrachten und über dich nachsinnen und sprechen: Ist das der Mann, der die Erde erbeben ließ, der Königreiche erschütterte? Jesaja 14:12–16.

Five times Lucifer proclaims in his heart “I will.” Satan, once named the “light bearer” (Lucifer), who now only bears darkness, is he “that did shake the nations.” Prophetically he is associated with the “nations,” for he is the leader of the evil confederacy of the nations, and the confederacy of merchants identified in Revelation chapters seventeen and eighteen.

Mu tano Lusifa akumweebela mu mutima gwe nti, “Ndikola.” Sitaani, eyali ayitibwa edda “omutisse ekitangaala” (Lusifa), naye kaakano ng’atissa kizikiza kyokka, ye “eyakankanyiza amawanga.” Mu ngeri ey’obunnabbi akwatagana n’“amawanga,” kubanga ye mukulembeze w’ekibiina eky’obubi eky’amawanga, era n’ekibiina ky’abasuubuzi ekimanyiddwa mu Kubikkulirwa essuula eya kkumi na musanvu n’eya kkumi na munaana.

“Kings and rulers and governors have placed upon themselves the brand of antichrist, and are represented as the dragon who goes to make war with the saints—with those who keep the commandments of God and who have the faith of Jesus.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.

“Roi ma ol tisa mo ol gavana i putim finis long ol yet mak bilong antikraist, na ol i stap olsem piksa bilong dragan we i go bilong pait wantaim ol saint—wantaim ol manmeri husat i save holimpas ol lo bilong God na husat i gat bilip bilong Jesus.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.

At Christ’s baptism the Holy Spirit descended, typifying post-September 11, 2001. After His baptism Satan tempted Christ with the offer to give Christ the power Satan uses to rule the kingdoms of the world, for at the fall of Adam, Satan had become the ruler of the kingdoms of the world.

Wakati wa ubatizo wa Kristo Roho Mtakatifu alishuka, akifananisha kipindi cha baada ya Septemba 11, 2001. Baada ya ubatizo Wake, Shetani alimjaribu Kristo kwa kumpa Kristo mamlaka ambayo Shetani hutumia kutawala falme za ulimwengu, kwa maana katika kuanguka kwa Adamu, Shetani alikuwa amekuwa mtawala wa falme za ulimwengu.

And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, showed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Luke 4:5–8.

Og djöfullinn fór með hann upp á hátt fjall og sýndi honum á einu augabragði öll ríki heimsins. Og djöfullinn sagði við hann: Allt þetta vald mun ég gefa þér, og dýrð þeirra; því að mér er það fengið, og hverjum sem ég vil gef ég það. Ef þú því fellur fram og tilbiður mig, skal allt vera þitt. En Jesús svaraði honum og sagði: Far þú burt frá mér, Satan; því að ritað er: Drottin Guð þinn skalt þú tilbiðja, og honum einum þjóna. Lúkas 4:5–8.

Two primary characteristics of papal Rome (the beast), is her fornication and the poisoned “food” and drink she distributes.

Zwei Hauptmerkmale des päpstlichen Rom (des Tieres) sind seine Hurerei und die vergiftete „Speise“ und der Trank, die es austeilt.

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. Revelation 2:14.

Néanmoins, j’ai quelque chose contre toi, c’est que tu laisses cette femme Jézabel, qui se dit prophétesse, enseigner et séduire mes serviteurs, pour les entraîner à se livrer à l’impudicité et à manger des viandes sacrifiées aux idoles. Apocalypse 2:14.

The “food” and drink she provides is her false doctrines.

La « nourriture » et la boisson qu’elle procure sont ses fausses doctrines.

“The great sin charged against Babylon is that she ‘made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.’ This cup of intoxication which she presents to the world represents the false doctrines that she has accepted as the result of her unlawful connection with the great ones of the earth.” The Great Controversy, 388.

“Babül’e yüklenen büyük günah, onun ‘bütün milletlere fuhşunun gazabının şarabından içirmiş’ olmasıdır.” Dünyaya sunduğu bu sarhoşluk kâsesi, yeryüzünün büyükleriyle kurduğu gayrimeşru ilişkinin sonucu olarak kabul etmiş olduğu sahte öğretileri temsil eder. The Great Controversy, 388.

The beast of Catholicism also deceives the world by her sorceries, which is once again something that is taken internally.

Das Tier des Katholizismus verführt die Welt auch durch seine Zaubereien, was wiederum etwas ist, das innerlich aufgenommen wird.

And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. Revelation 18:23.

Nta n’itara ry’itabaza rizongera kumurikira na gato muri wowe; kandi ijwi ry’umukwe n’irya muramukazi ntibizongera kumvikana na gato muri wowe; kuko abacuruzi bawe bari abakomeye bo mu isi; kuko amahanga yose yayobejwe n’ubupfumu bwawe. Ibyahishuwe 18:23.

The Greek word translated as “sorceries,” is pharmakeia, meaning medications. The golden cup in her hand, represents not only a cup to drink wine from, but also the cup where her magical medical potions are prepared and delivered. In the modern world today, those magical potions are delivered in needles, not so much in a cup. When Satan appears after the soon-coming Sunday law, he will perform miracles of healing. The miracles associated with the potions and false doctrines of the papacy, was represented by Satan telling Christ to perform a miracle in turning the stone into bread.

De Griechsche Woort, dat as „Toverschen“ överdragen is, is pharmakeia, wat Medikamente bedüüdt. De güllene Kelk in ehr Hand stellt nich bloots en Kelk vör, ut den Wien drunken warrt, sünnern ok den Kelk, worin ehr magische medizinische Tränke tobereidt un utreikt warrt. In de moderne Welt vun hüüt warrt disse magischen Tränke in Nadeln utreikt, nich so sehr in en Kelk. Wenn Satan na dat bald kummende Sünndag-Gesetz erscheint, warrt he Wunder vun Heilung doon. De Wunder, de mit de Tränke un de falschen Lehren vun dat Papsttum verbunnen sünd, wurren dör Satan dör dat vörstellt, dat he Christus seggen deit, he schull en Wunder doon un den Steen in Brot verwandeln.

The prophetic history before and after the Sunday law possesses the same characteristics. The image of the beast testing period for Adventism leading to the Sunday law in the United States typifies the image of the beast testing period for the entire world. This is why we are informed that, “the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.”

L’histoire prophétique avant et après la loi du dimanche possède les mêmes caractéristiques. La période d’épreuve de l’image de la bête pour l’adventisme, qui conduit à la loi du dimanche aux États-Unis, est le type de la période d’épreuve de l’image de la bête pour le monde entier. C’est pourquoi il nous est dit que « la même crise viendra sur notre peuple dans toutes les parties du monde ».

The miracles of satanic healings that are accomplished by Satan after the Sunday law, represent the “sorceries” of so-called medicine that are pawned off during the history beginning on September 11, 2001. Jesus stated that, “man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.” Rome’s “food” is traditions and customs which she places above the Word of God.

Les miracles des guérisons sataniques accomplis par Satan après la loi du dimanche représentent les « sorcelleries » de la prétendue médecine que l’on fait passer pour authentique au cours de l’histoire qui commence le 11 septembre 2001. Jésus a déclaré que « l’homme ne vivra pas de pain seulement, mais de toute parole de Dieu ». La « nourriture » de Rome, ce sont les traditions et les coutumes qu’elle place au-dessus de la Parole de Dieu.

“In the movements now in progress in the United States to secure for the institutions and usages of the church the support of the state, Protestants are following in the steps of papists. Nay, more, they are opening the door for the papacy to regain in Protestant America the supremacy which she has lost in the Old World. And that which gives greater significance to this movement is the fact that the principal object contemplated is the enforcement of Sunday observance—a custom which originated with Rome, and which she claims as the sign of her authority. It is the spirit of the papacy—the spirit of conformity to worldly customs, the veneration for human traditions above the commandments of God—that is permeating the Protestant churches and leading them on to do the same work of Sunday exaltation which the papacy has done before them.” The Great Controversy, 573.

«في الحركات الجارية الآن في الولايات المتحدة لتأمين دعم الدولة لمؤسسات الكنيسة وعاداتها، يسير البروتستانت على خطى أتباع البابوية. بل أكثر من ذلك، إنهم يفتحون الباب أمام البابوية لتستعيد في أمريكا البروتستانتية السيادة التي فقدتها في العالم القديم. والذي يضفي على هذه الحركة دلالة أعظم هو أن الغرض الرئيسي المقصود هو فرض مراعاة يوم الأحد—وهي عادة نشأت مع روما، وتدّعي هي أنها علامة سلطانها. إنها روح البابوية—روح التوافق مع العادات العالمية، وتوقير التقاليد البشرية فوق وصايا الله—هي التي تتخلل الكنائس البروتستانتية وتقودها إلى أن تقوم بالعمل نفسه في تعظيم الأحد الذي قامت به البابوية من قبلهم.» الصراع العظيم، 573.

Tradition and custom are the doctrinal “food” which the beast replaces for the Word of God, in order that it might lift up its pagan idolatry.

La tradition et la coutume sont la « nourriture » doctrinale par laquelle la bête remplace la Parole de Dieu, afin d’élever son idolâtrie païenne.

“How the Roman Church can clear herself from the charge of idolatry we cannot see. True, she professes to worship God through these images; so did the Israelites when they bowed before the golden calf. But the Lord’s wrath was kindled against them, and many were slain. God pronounced them impious idolaters, and the same record is made today in the books of heaven against those who adore images of saints and so-called holy men.

« De quelle manière l’Église romaine peut se disculper de l’accusation d’idolâtrie, nous ne pouvons le voir. Il est vrai qu’elle professe adorer Dieu au moyen de ces images ; ainsi faisaient les Israélites lorsqu’ils se prosternaient devant le veau d’or. Mais la colère du Seigneur s’enflamma contre eux, et beaucoup furent mis à mort. Dieu les déclara impies idolâtres, et le même témoignage est consigné aujourd’hui dans les livres du ciel contre ceux qui adorent les images des saints et des soi-disant hommes saints. »

“And this is the religion which Protestants are beginning to look upon with so much favor, and which will eventually be united with Protestantism. This union will not, however, be effected by a change in Catholicism; for Rome never changes. She claims infallibility. It is Protestantism that will change. The adoption of liberal ideas on its part will bring it where it can clasp the hand of Catholicism. ‘The Bible, the Bible, is the foundation of our faith,’ was the cry of Protestants in Luther’s time, while the Catholics cried, ‘The Fathers, custom, tradition.’ Now many Protestants find it difficult to prove their doctrines from the Bible, and yet they have not the moral courage to accept the truth which involves a cross; therefore they are fast coming to the ground of Catholics, and, using the best arguments they have to evade the truth, cite the testimony of the Fathers, and the customs and precepts of men. Yes, the Protestants of the nineteenth century are fast approaching the Catholics in their infidelity concerning the Scriptures. But there is just as wide a gulf today between Rome and the Protestantism of Luther, Cranmer, Ridley, Hooper, and the noble army of martyrs, as there was when these men made the protest which gave them the name of Protestants.

Christ was a protestant. He protested against the formal worship of the Jewish nation, who rejected the counsel of God against themselves. He told them that they taught for doctrines the commandments of men, and that they were pretenders and hypocrites. Like whited sepulchers they were beautiful without, but within full of impurity and corruption. The Reformers date back to Christ and the apostles. They came out and separated themselves from a religion of forms and ceremonies. Luther and his followers did not invent the reformed religion. They simply accepted it as presented by Christ and the apostles. The Bible is presented to us as a sufficient guide; but the pope and his workers remove it from the people as if it were a curse, because it exposes their pretensions and rebukes their idolatry.” Review and Herald, June 1, 1886.

「キリストはプロテスタントであられた。彼は、神の勧告を自ら退けたユダヤ民族の形式的な礼拝に抗議された。彼は彼らに、彼らは人間の戒めを教理として教え、見せかける者、偽善者であると告げられた。白く塗られた墓のように、外側は美しいが、内側は汚れと腐敗とに満ちていたのである。宗教改革者たちの起源はキリストと使徒たちにまでさかのぼる。彼らは、形式と儀式の宗教から出て、それと自らを分離した。ルターとその追随者たちが改革された宗教を案出したのではない。彼らはただ、キリストと使徒たちによって示されたそれを受け入れたにすぎない。聖書は、十分な導きとしてわれわれに提示されている。しかるに教皇とその働き手たちは、それが彼らの虚偽の見せかけを暴き、その偶像礼拝を戒めるがゆえに、まるで呪いであるかのように、それを民衆から取り去るのである。」Review and Herald, June 1, 1886.

Miracles of healing, that form the basis of spiritualism, are her stock and trade.

Mucizile de vindecare, care constituie temelia spiritualismului, sunt marfa ei de căpătâi.

“Many endeavor to account for spiritual manifestations by attributing them wholly to fraud and sleight of hand on the part of the medium. But while it is true that the results of trickery have often been palmed off as genuine manifestations, there have been, also, marked exhibitions of supernatural power. The mysterious rapping with which modern spiritualism began was not the result of human trickery or cunning, but was the direct work of evil angels, who thus introduced one of the most successful of soul-destroying delusions. Many will be ensnared through the belief that spiritualism is a merely human imposture; when brought face to face with manifestations which they cannot but regard as supernatural, they will be deceived, and will be led to accept them as the great power of God.

“Wengi hujitahidi kueleza udhihirisho wa kiroho kwa kuuhusisha kabisa na udanganyifu na hila za mkono kwa upande wa mediumu. Lakini ingawa ni kweli kwamba matokeo ya ujanja mara nyingi yamewasilishwa kana kwamba ni udhihirisho wa kweli, kumekuwapo pia maonyesho dhahiri ya nguvu zisizo za kawaida. Mlio wa ajabu wa kugonga ambao ndio ulioanzisha uwasiliani-roho wa kisasa haukuwa matokeo ya hila au werevu wa kibinadamu, bali ulikuwa kazi ya moja kwa moja ya malaika waovu, ambao kwa njia hiyo waliingiza mojawapo ya upotovu wenye mafanikio makubwa zaidi wa kuangamiza roho. Wengi watanasa kwa sababu ya kuamini kwamba uwasiliani-roho ni udanganyifu wa kibinadamu tu; watakapokabiliwa uso kwa uso na udhihirisho ambao hawawezi ila kuuhesabu kuwa ni wa nguvu zisizo za kawaida, watadanganywa, na wataongozwa kuukubali kuwa ndiyo nguvu kuu ya Mungu.”

“These persons overlook the testimony of the Scriptures concerning the wonders wrought by Satan and his agents. It was by satanic aid that Pharaoh’s magicians were enabled to counterfeit the work of God. Paul testifies that before the second advent of Christ there will be similar manifestations of satanic power. The coming of the Lord is to be preceded by ‘the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness.’ 2 Thessalonians 2:9,10. And the apostle John, describing the miracle-working power that will be manifested in the last days, declares: ‘He doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, and deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do.’ Revelation 13:13, 14. No mere impostures are here foretold. Men are deceived by the miracles which Satan’s agents have power to do, not which they pretend to do.” The Great Controversy, 553.

The false doctrines built upon customs and traditions, the spiritualistic manifestations of miracles, the counterfeit medical-industrial industry and the combination of churchcraft with statecraft are all the attributes of the beast of Catholicism. Pride is a characteristic of the dragon power. Presumption is the characteristic of the false prophet of apostate Protestantism.

Les fausses doctrines édifiées sur les coutumes et les traditions, les manifestations spiritualistes de miracles, l’industrie médico-industrielle contrefaite, ainsi que l’alliance de l’art ecclésiastique avec l’art politique, sont autant d’attributs de la bête du catholicisme. L’orgueil est une caractéristique de la puissance du dragon. La présomption est la caractéristique du faux prophète du protestantisme apostat.

And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. Luke 4:1–4.

Y Yesu, llenu del Espíritu Santo, volvió del Jordán, y fue lleváu pol Espíritu al desiertu, siendo tentáu del diábolu mientres cuarenta díes. Y nun comió nada n’aquellos díes; y, cuando fueron acabaos, depués tuvo fame. Entós el diábolu-y dixo: Si yes el Fíu de Dios, manda a esta piedra que se torne pan. Y Jesús respondió-y, diciendo: Escrito ta: Non solo de pan vivirá l’home, sinón de tola pallabra de Dios. Lucas 4:1–4.

Presumption is a noun that refers to the act or instance of assuming something to be true without sufficient evidence or proof. It involves making a judgment or drawing a conclusion based on incomplete or insufficient information. Presumption can also imply a certain level of confidence in one’s assumption, even when it may not be entirely justified.

“Ff” is ambiguous as a target language. Please specify the language you want the text translated into.

Apostate Protestantism has accepted Sunday as God’s day of worship without any evidence to support that flawed idea from God’s Word, and they do so while knowingly professing that they are Protestants, whose motto is “God’s word alone,” or as Martin Luther proclaimed, “Sola Scriptura!” They choose to accept it based upon the traditions and customs of the Roman church, or perhaps as simply an accepted inheritance from their forefathers. At the loud cry of the third angel the truth that there is absolutely no justification for worshipping the sun that can be provided from the Bible will be clearly revealed, and then those who continue in their flawed presumption will receive the mark of the beast.

धर्मत्यागी प्रोटेस्टेंटवाद ने रविवार को परमेश्वर की आराधना का दिन इस रूप में स्वीकार कर लिया है कि उस त्रुटिपूर्ण धारणा के समर्थन में परमेश्वर के वचन से कोई भी प्रमाण नहीं है; और वे ऐसा करते हुए जान-बूझकर यह घोषित करते हैं कि वे प्रोटेस्टेंट हैं, जिनका ध्येय-वाक्य है, “केवल परमेश्वर का वचन,” अथवा जैसा मार्टिन लूथर ने घोषित किया, “Sola Scriptura!” वे इसे रोमी कलीसिया की परंपराओं और रीति-रिवाजों के आधार पर स्वीकार करना चुनते हैं, या संभवतः केवल अपने पूर्वजों से प्राप्त एक स्वीकृत विरासत के रूप में। तीसरे स्वर्गदूत के ऊँचे शब्दघोष के समय यह सत्य कि बाइबल से सूर्य-पूजा के लिए तनिक भी औचित्य प्रस्तुत नहीं किया जा सकता, स्पष्ट रूप से प्रकट कर दिया जाएगा, और तब जो लोग अपनी त्रुटिपूर्ण धृष्ट धारणा में बने रहेंगे, वे पशु की छाप ग्रहण करेंगे।

“If the light of truth has been presented to you, revealing the Sabbath of the fourth commandment, and showing that there is no foundation in the Word of God for Sunday observance, and yet you still cling to the false sabbath, refusing to keep holy the Sabbath which God calls ‘my holy day,’ you receive the mark of the beast. When does this take place?—When you obey the decree that commands you to cease from labor on Sunday and worship God, while you know that there is not a word in the Bible showing Sunday to be other than a common working-day, you consent to receive the mark of the beast, and refuse the seal of God. If we receive this mark in our foreheads or in our hands, the judgments pronounced against the disobedient must fall upon us. But the seal of the living God is placed upon those who conscientiously keep the Sabbath of the Lord.” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.

«Si la lumière de la vérité vous a été présentée, vous révélant le sabbat du quatrième commandement et montrant qu’il n’existe aucun fondement, dans la Parole de Dieu, pour l’observance du dimanche, et que pourtant vous vous attachiez encore au faux sabbat, refusant de sanctifier le sabbat que Dieu appelle “mon saint jour”, vous recevez la marque de la bête. Quand cela a-t-il lieu ? — Lorsque vous obéissez au décret qui vous ordonne de cesser le travail le dimanche et d’adorer Dieu, alors que vous savez qu’il n’y a pas un mot dans la Bible qui montre que le dimanche soit autre chose qu’un jour ouvrable ordinaire, vous consentez à recevoir la marque de la bête et refusez le sceau de Dieu. Si nous recevons cette marque sur nos fronts ou dans nos mains, les jugements prononcés contre les désobéissants doivent tomber sur nous. Mais le sceau du Dieu vivant est placé sur ceux qui observent consciencieusement le sabbat du Seigneur. » Review and Herald, 27 avril 1911.

The commonly understood weakness of the Republican party is their willingness to assume their political opponents are fair and honest, when the fruits of the Democratic party clearly reveal that they are the children of the father of lies. Repeatedly and consistently the Republicans take their political opponents at their word, when they have been shown over and over that their opponents never keep their word. They project honest motivations upon those who repeatedly have manifested no rational justification to support the Republicans flawed projections of expected honesty and integrity. It is true also that many Republicans refuse to uphold principle for personal financial gain, or because of secret immoral circumstances that allow them to be easily manipulated, but the primary prophetic attribute of the Republican party is presumption.

Jamii inayoeleweka kwa kawaida ya chama cha Republican ni utayari wao wa kudhani kwamba wapinzani wao wa kisiasa ni wa haki na waaminifu, ilhali matunda ya chama cha Democratic yanafunua wazi kwamba wao ni watoto wa baba wa uongo. Mara kwa mara na kwa uthabiti, Warepublican huwachukulia wapinzani wao wa kisiasa kwa neno lao, wakati wameonyeshwa tena na tena kwamba wapinzani wao hawashiki kamwe neno lao. Wanawahusisha nia za uaminifu wale ambao mara kwa mara wameonyesha kutokuwapo kwa msingi wowote wa kiakili wa kuunga mkono makadirio potovu ya Warepublican kuhusu uaminifu na unyofu unaotarajiwa. Ni kweli pia kwamba Warepublican wengi hukataa kusimamia kanuni kwa ajili ya faida ya kibinafsi ya kifedha, au kwa sababu ya hali za siri za uasherati zinazowaruhusu kudhibitiwa kwa urahisi, lakini sifa kuu ya kinabii ya chama cha Republican ni kudhania bila msingi.

It is the attribute of presumption which is prophetically marked in apostate Protestants, that allows them to pretend they have taken the higher moral and political ground, when in reality they have abdicated their civil responsibilities under the empty expectation that their political opponents will keep their word. The very common definition of insanity is to try and do the same thing over and over, while expecting a different outcome, yet the Republicans argue that it is the Democrats that have been infected with insanity as manifested in their hatred of Trump.

C’est l’attribut de la présomption, prophétiquement marqué chez les protestants apostats, qui leur permet de prétendre avoir pris la position morale et politique la plus élevée, alors qu’en réalité ils ont abdiqué leurs responsabilités civiques dans la vaine attente que leurs adversaires politiques tiendront parole. La définition, fort commune, de la folie consiste précisément à refaire sans cesse la même chose tout en s’attendant à un résultat différent ; pourtant, les Républicains soutiennent que ce sont les Démocrates qui ont été frappés de folie, telle qu’elle se manifeste dans leur haine de Trump.

Yet the insanity of the Republicans is repeatedly illustrated as they agree to compromises, under the premise of compromise being the work of the legislative process, while their political compromises, which they claim are based upon the principle of “the legislative process,” is made with a class who never compromise. Democrats only give ground in the political process when they are fully restrained by the numbers against them. They have never provided evidence of truly working for a middle ground with the political process. The insanity of Republicans is their repeated optimistic expectations of others that are fully unwarranted.

Et pourtant, la folie des Républicains se manifeste de façon répétée lorsqu’ils consentent à des compromis, sous le prétexte que le compromis relèverait du travail du processus législatif, alors même que leurs compromis politiques, qu’ils prétendent fonder sur le principe du « processus législatif », sont conclus avec une catégorie de personnes qui, elles, ne transigent jamais. Les Démocrates ne cèdent du terrain dans le processus politique que lorsqu’ils y sont pleinement contraints par le rapport du nombre qui leur est défavorable. Ils n’ont jamais apporté la preuve qu’ils œuvrent véritablement, dans le cadre du processus politique, à la recherche d’un terrain d’entente. La folie des Républicains réside dans leurs attentes optimistes, constamment renouvelées à l’égard d’autrui, alors qu’elles sont entièrement sans fondement.

By far and away the majority of those who are supportive of Donald Trump will testify to the fact that the worst attribute of Trump is his willingness to accept men as supporters of his agenda, when the available evidence identifies that it was totally presumption on Trump’s part to make that choice. Presumption is the prophetic attribute of apostate Protestantism. Satan tempted Christ by quoting the Bible, but in so doing, Satan twisted the passage into an unwarranted and unscriptural test.

A grande maggioranza di coloro che sostengono Donald Trump attesterà senza esitazione che la peggiore caratteristica di Trump è la sua disponibilità ad accettare uomini come sostenitori della sua agenda, quando le prove disponibili indicano che fu del tutto presuntuoso, da parte di Trump, fare tale scelta. La presunzione è l’attributo profetico del protestantesimo apostata. Satana tentò Cristo citando la Bibbia, ma così facendo distortò il passo trasformandolo in una prova ingiustificata e antiscritturale.

And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee: And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Luke 4:9–12.

Et il le conduisit à Jérusalem, le plaça sur le faîte du temple, et lui dit : Si tu es le Fils de Dieu, jette-toi d’ici en bas ; car il est écrit : Il donnera pour toi des ordres à ses anges, afin qu’ils te gardent ; et : Ils te porteront sur leurs mains, de peur que ton pied ne heurte contre une pierre. Et Jésus lui répondit : Il est dit : Tu ne tenteras point le Seigneur, ton Dieu. Luc 4:9–12.

At the soon-coming Sunday law it will be the Protestants of the United States who will take the biblical mandate to cease from labor on the Sabbath day, and twist the commandment to worship God on the seventh-day Sabbath into a fabricated command that it is actually paganism’s day of the sun that men are required to worship upon. They will twist a biblical passage into an unwarranted and unscriptural test.

Lors de la loi dominicale imminente, ce seront les protestants des États-Unis qui prendront le mandat biblique de cesser le travail le jour du sabbat, et détourneront le commandement d’adorer Dieu le sabbat du septième jour pour en faire un commandement fabriqué, selon lequel c’est en réalité le jour du soleil du paganisme sur lequel les hommes seraient tenus d’adorer. Ils dénatureront un passage biblique pour en faire une épreuve injustifiée et contraire aux Écritures.

“I saw that the two-horned beast had a dragon’s mouth, and that his power was in his head, and that the decree would go out of his mouth. Then I saw the Mother of Harlots; that the mother was not the daughters, but separate and distinct from them. She has had her day, and it is past, and her daughters, the Protestant sects, were the next to come on the stage and act out the same mind that the mother had when she persecuted the saints. I saw that as the mother has been declining in power, the daughters had been growing, and soon they will exercise the power once exercised by the mother.

“Mi vide, ke la dupotenca besto havis buŝon de drako, kaj ke lia potenco estis en lia kapo, kaj ke la dekreto eliros el lia buŝo. Tiam mi vidis la Patrinon de Malĉastulinoj; ke la patrino ne estis la filinoj, sed aparta kaj distingebla de ili. Ŝi havis sian tagon, kaj ĝi jam pasis, kaj ŝiaj filinoj, la protestantaj sektoj, estis la sekvantaj veni sur la scenejon kaj elmontri la saman spiriton, kiun la patrino havis, kiam ŝi persekutis la sanktulojn. Mi vidis, ke dum la patrino malkreskadis en potenco, la filinoj kreskadis, kaj baldaŭ ili ekzercos la potencon, kiun iam ekzercis la patrino.”

“I saw the nominal church and nominal Adventists, like Judas, would betray us to the Catholics to obtain their influence to come against the truth. The saints then will be an obscure people, little known to the Catholics; but the churches and nominal Adventists who know of our faith and customs (for they hated us on account of the Sabbath, for they could not refute it) will betray the saints and report them to the Catholics as those who disregard the institutions of the people; that is, that they keep the Sabbath and disregard Sunday.

“Mi vidis, ke la laŭnoma eklezio kaj la laŭnomaj Adventistoj, kiel Judas, perfidus nin al la katolikoj por akiri ilian influon, por veni kontraŭ la vero. Tiam la sanktuloj estos malklara popolo, malmulte konata al la katolikoj; sed la eklezioj kaj la laŭnomaj Adventistoj, kiuj scias pri nia kredo kaj kutimoj (ĉar ili malamis nin pro la Sabato, ĉar ili ne povis ĝin refuti), perfidos la sanktulojn kaj raportos ilin al la katolikoj kiel tiujn, kiuj malatentas la instituciojn de la popolo; tio estas, ke ili observas la Sabaton kaj malatentas dimanĉon.”

“Then the Catholics bid the Protestants to go forward, and issue a decree that all who will not observe the first day of the week, instead of the seventh day, shall be slain. And the Catholics, whose numbers are large, will stand by the Protestants. The Catholics will give their power to the image of the beast. And the Protestants will work as their mother worked before them to destroy the saints. But before their decree bring or bear fruit, the saints will be delivered by the Voice of God.” Spalding and Magan, 1, 2.
