All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, see ye, when he lifteth up an ensign on the mountains; and when he bloweth a trumpet, hear ye. Isaiah 18:3.
让世上一切的居民，并地上所居住的人，都当观看：他在山上竖立大旗的时候，你们要看；他吹角的时候，你们要听。以赛亚书 18:3
The messenger represented as Elijah proclaiming the message represented by Moses is slain in the streets by a beast that ascends from the bottomless pit. After being trampled down for a period represented by the “curse” of Moses which is the “scattering” of Leviticus twenty-six the Holy Spirit enters into their dead bodies through God’s Word. They then stand up and thereafter ascend up into heaven. A message that is represented as in heaven is the everlasting gospel of the three angels.
Izingelosi emelwe njengo-Eliya imemezela umlayezo omelwe nguMose ibulawa ezitaladini yisilo esikhuphuka siphuma emgodini ongenasiphelo. Ngemva kokunyathelwa phansi isikhathi esimelwe “ngesiqalekiso” sikaMose, okuyi “ukuhlakazwa” kukaLevitikusi amashumi amabili nesithupha, uMoya oNgcwele ungena emizimbeni yabo efile ngeZwi likaNkulunkulu. Base besukuma, futhi emva kwalokho bakhuphukela ezulwini. Umlayezo omelwe njengosezulwini uyivangeli laphakade lezingelosi ezintathu.
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people. Revelation 14:6.
مەن يەنە بىر پەرىشتىنى كۆكتە ئوتتۇرىدا ئۇچۇپ كېتىۋاتقان ھالدا كۆردۈم؛ ئۇنىڭ يەر يۈزىدە تۇرۇۋاتقانلارغا، ھەربىر مىللەتكە، قەبىلىگە، تىلغا ۋە خەلقكە جاكارلاش ئۈچۈن ئەبەدىي ئىنجىلى بار ئىدى. ۋەھىي 14:6.
Before Elijah and Moses ascend into heaven they first would stand upon their feet.
Avant qu’Élie et Moïse ne montent au ciel, ils se tiendraient d’abord sur leurs pieds.
And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. Revelation 11:11, 12.
И по истечении трёх дней с половиною вошёл в них дух жизни от Бога, и они стали на ноги свои; и великий страх напал на тех, которые смотрели на них. И услышали они громкий голос с неба, говоривший им: взойдите сюда. И они взошли на небо на облаке; и враги их смотрели на них. Откровение 11:11, 12.
Every prophet agrees with the other prophets and they all come together in the book of Revelation. The book of Ezekiel teaches that when the Spirit enters into men they stand upon their feet.
प्रत्येक अगमवक्ता अन्य अगमवक्ताओं के साथ सहमत है, और वे सब प्रकाशितवाक्य की पुस्तक में एकत्र होते हैं। यहेजकेल की पुस्तक सिखाती है कि जब आत्मा मनुष्यों में प्रवेश करती है, तब वे अपने पैरों पर खड़े हो जाते हैं।
And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee. And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me. Ezekiel 2:1, 2.
Et il me dit : Fils d’homme, tiens-toi sur tes pieds, et je te parlerai. Et l’esprit entra en moi lorsqu’il me parla, et me mit sur mes pieds ; et j’entendis celui qui me parlait. Ézéchiel 2:1, 2.
Ezekiel represents God’s people in the “last days” who are dead, yet they hear God speak, and the reception of God’s Word brings the presence of the Holy Spirit and they then stand upon their feet. Those in Revelation who have been slain and left in the street to be trampled down for twelve hundred and sixty symbolic days also hear God’s Word, which conveys the Holy Spirit into their hearts and minds and they stand upon their feet. Ezekiel informs us what the Word of God is that they hear, which in turn brings the entire movement represented by Moses and Elijah that has been dead in the streets back to life, and causes them to stand.
حزقيال يمثّل شعب الله في «الأيّام الأخيرة» الذين هم أموات، ومع ذلك يسمعون الله يتكلّم؛ فتلقّيهم لكلمة الله يجلب حضور الروح القدس، ثم يقفون على أقدامهم. وأولئك المذكورون في سفر الرؤيا الذين قُتلوا وتُركوا في الشارع ليُداسوا مدّة ألف ومئتين وستّين يومًا رمزيًّا يسمعون هم أيضًا كلمة الله، التي تنقل الروح القدس إلى قلوبهم وأذهانهم، فيقفون على أقدامهم. ويُعلمنا حزقيال ما هي كلمة الله التي يسمعونها، والتي تعيد بدورها إلى الحياة الحركةَ كلّها التي يمثّلها موسى وإيليا، والتي كانت ميتة في الشوارع، وتتسبّب في أن تقف.
The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest. Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord. So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone. And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them. Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army. Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts. Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord. Ezekiel 37:1–14.
Harriaren eskua nire gainera etorri zen, eta Jaunaren espirituan atera ninduen, eta hezurrez betea zegoen haranaren erdian ezarri ninduen; eta haien inguruan ibilarazi ninduen: eta hara, oso asko ziren haran zabalean; eta, begira, guztiz ihartuak zeuden. Eta esan zidan: Gizonaren semea, bizi al daitezke hezur hauek? Eta nik erantzun nuen: Jauna Jainkoa, hik badakik. Berriz esan zidan: Profetiza ezak hezur hauen gainera, eta esaidak haiei: Hezur ihartuok, entzun ezazue Jaunaren hitza. Hau dio Jauna Jainkoak hezur hauei: Hara, arnasa sartuko dut zuengan, eta biziko zarete; eta nerbioak ezarriko dizkizuet, eta haragia igoko dut zuen gainera, eta larruaz estaliko zaituztet, eta arnasa jarriko dut zuengan, eta biziko zarete; eta jakingo duzue ni naizela Jauna. Hala, agindu zitzaidan bezala profetizatu nuen: eta profetizatzen nuela, zarata bat izan zen, eta hara, astinaldi bat, eta hezurrak elkartu ziren, hezur bakoitza bere hezurrarekin. Eta begiratu nuenean, hara, nerbioak eta haragia igo ziren haien gainera, eta larruak estali zituen gainetik: baina ez zen arnasarik haietan. Orduan esan zidan: Profetiza ezak haizeari, profetiza ezak, gizonaren semea, eta esaiozu haizeari: Hau dio Jauna Jainkoak; Zatoz lau haizeetatik, arnasa, eta arnas ezak hil hauen gainera, bizi daitezen. Hala, agindu zidan bezala profetizatu nuen, eta arnasa sartu zen haietan, eta bizi izan ziren, eta beren oinen gainean zutitu ziren, armada guztiz handi bat. Orduan esan zidan: Gizonaren semea, hezur hauek Israelgo etxe osoa dira: hara, haiek diote: Gure hezurrak ihartu dira, eta gure itxaropena galdu da: geure aldetik moztuak izan gara. Horregatik, profetiza ezak, eta esaiezu: Hau dio Jauna Jainkoak; Hara, ene herria, zuen hilobiak irekiko ditut, eta zuen hilobietatik ateraraziko zaituztet, eta Israelgo lurrera ekarriko zaituztet. Eta jakingo duzue ni naizela Jauna, zuen hilobiak ireki ditudanean, ene herria, eta zuen hilobietatik atera zaituztedanean, eta nire espiritua zuengan ezarriko dudanean, eta biziko zaretenean, eta zuen lurrean ezarriko zaituztedanean: orduan jakingo duzue nik, Jaunak, hitz egin dudala, eta bete dudala, dio Jaunak. Ezekiel 37:1–14.
Daniel and John represent God’s one hundred and forty-four thousand in the “last days” who have been symbolically killed and resurrected. John in the boiling oil, Daniel in the lion’s den. The movement that was an offspring of its Laodicean mother is symbolically slain and thereafter resurrected, thus becoming the eighth that is of the seven. It is the resurrection of the sixth church, which was Philadelphia that becomes the eighth, though it is not a church but a movement. At the end of a period where they remain unburied, that they might be trampled down by those that are celebrating their deaths, they stand upon their feet as a mighty army. They stand up because they hear a message from God’s Word. Any corpse that has been in the street for over three years has rotted away to the point that all that would remain would be bones.
Daniel na John wanaiwakilisha watu wa Mungu laki moja na arobaini na nne elfu katika “siku za mwisho” ambao kwa ishara wameuawa na kufufuliwa. John katika mafuta yanayochemka, Daniel katika tundu la simba. Vuguvugu lililokuwa uzao wa mama yake wa Laodikia kwa ishara linauawa, na baada ya hayo linafufuliwa, na hivyo linakuwa wa nane aliye wa wale saba. Huo ndio ufufuo wa kanisa la sita, ambalo lilikuwa Filadelfia, linalokuwa wa nane, ijapokuwa si kanisa bali ni vuguvugu. Mwishoni mwa kipindi ambacho wanabaki bila kuzikwa, ili wakanyagwe na wale wanaosherehekea vifo vyao, wanasimama juu ya miguu yao wakiwa jeshi kuu. Wanasimama kwa sababu wanasikia ujumbe kutoka kwa Neno la Mungu. Maiti yoyote ambayo imekuwa barabarani kwa zaidi ya miaka mitatu imeoza kiasi kwamba kitu pekee ambacho kingalibaki kingekuwa mifupa.
“The dry bones need to be breathed upon by the Holy Spirit of God, that they may come into action, as by a resurrection from the dead.” Bible Training School, December 1, 1903.
« Ossements secs no nilo asengeli kopemama na Molimo Mosantu wa Nzambe, mpo ete bakoka kokota na mosala, lokola na lisekwa oyo euti na bakufi. » Bible Training School, 1 décembre 1903.
We are required to participate in the work of resurrecting ourselves. We do this by reading, hearing and keeping the things which are written.
Tunahitajika kushiriki katika kazi ya kujifufua sisi wenyewe. Tunafanya hivyo kwa kusoma, kusikia, na kuyashika mambo yaliyoandikwa.
“A revival of true godliness among us is the greatest and most urgent of all our needs. To seek this should be our first work.” Selected Messages, book 1, 121.
« Une renaissance de la vraie piété parmi nous est le plus grand et le plus pressant de tous nos besoins. La rechercher devrait être notre première tâche. » Messages choisis, livre 1, 121.
The prophetic “Word” that produces this resurrection from a Laodicean experience unto the experience of Philadelphia comes from a message found in the books of Daniel and Revelation.
Sõna “prohvetlik”, mis toob esile selle ülestõusmise Laodikea kogemusest Filadelfia kogemusse, lähtub sõnumist, mis leidub Taanieli ja Ilmutusraamatu raamatutes.
“When the books of Daniel and Revelation are better understood, believers will have an entirely different religious experience.” Testimonies to Ministers, 112–114.
« Lorsque les livres de Daniel et de l’Apocalypse seront mieux compris, les croyants vivront une expérience religieuse entièrement différente. » Testimonies to Ministers, 112–114.
The experience of the legal religion of Laodicea is changed by a life-giving message. The message of the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the message of His creative power, which most certainly is the power of God unto salvation for everyone that believes.
Uzoefu wa dini ya kisharia ya Laodikia hubadilishwa na ujumbe utoao uzima. Ujumbe wa Ufunuo wa Yesu Kristo ni ujumbe wa nguvu Zake za uumbaji, ambazo kwa hakika kabisa ndizo nguvu za Mungu ziletazo wokovu kwa kila aaminiye.
“What power must we have from God that icy hearts, having only a legal religion, should see the better things provided for them—Christ and His righteousness! A life-giving message was needed to give life to the dry bones.” Manuscript Releases, volume 12, 205.
«Ինչպիսի՜ զորություն պետք է ունենանք Աստծուց, որպեսզի սառը սրտերը, ունենալով միայն օրինական կրոն, տեսնեն իրենց համար նախատեսված առավել բարիքները՝ Քրիստոսը և Նրա արդարությունը։ Կյանք պարգևող լուր էր անհրաժեշտ՝ չոր ոսկորներին կյանք տալու համար»։ Manuscript Releases, volume 12, 205.
The legal religion is a backslidden religion as represented by Adventism’s departure from the foundations in 1863 and onward.
La religion légaliste est une religion rétrograde, telle que la représente l’abandon par l’adventisme de ses fondements à partir de 1863 et par la suite.
“I lay down my pen and lift up my soul in prayer, that the Lord would breathe upon his backslidden people, which are as dry bones, that they may live.” General Conference Bulletin, February 4, 1893.
« Je pose ma plume et j’élève mon âme dans la prière, afin que le Seigneur souffle sur son peuple rétrograde, qui est comme des ossements desséchés, afin qu’ils vivent. » General Conference Bulletin, 4 février 1893.
Jesus is “the faithful witness” in the Revelation.
Yesu ni “ushahidi mwaminifu” katika Ufunuo.
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God. Revelation 3:14.
Na mjumbe wa kanisa la Walaodikia andika; Haya ndiyo asemayo Amina, shahidi aliye mwaminifu na wa kweli, mwanzo wa uumbaji wa Mungu. Ufunuo 3:14.
Sister White informs us that it is Jesus who is the “faithful witness” that presents a “straight testimony” to the Laodiceans who are dead in trespasses and sin, and that just as with the message to the valley of dead dry bones, the message causes a shaking.
Sœur White nous apprend que c’est Jésus qui est le « témoin fidèle », lequel adresse un « témoignage direct » aux Laodicéens morts par leurs offenses et leurs péchés, et que, de même que pour le message adressé à la vallée des ossements desséchés, ce message provoque un secouement.
“I asked the meaning of the shaking I had seen and was shown that it would be caused by the straight testimony called forth by the counsel of the True Witness to the Laodiceans. This will have its effect upon the heart of the receiver, and will lead him to exalt the standard and pour forth the straight truth. Some will not bear this straight testimony. They will rise up against it, and this is what will cause a shaking among God’s people.
« J’ai demandé la signification du criblage que j’avais vu, et il m’a été montré qu’il serait provoqué par le témoignage direct suscité par le conseil du Témoin fidèle adressé aux Laodicéens. Celui-ci exercera son effet sur le cœur de celui qui le reçoit, et le conduira à élever l’étendard et à faire entendre la vérité sans détour. Quelques-uns ne supporteront pas ce témoignage direct. Ils se soulèveront contre lui, et c’est ce qui provoquera un criblage parmi le peuple de Dieu. »
“I saw that the testimony of the True Witness has not been half heeded. The solemn testimony upon which the destiny of the church hangs has been lightly esteemed, if not entirely disregarded. This testimony must work deep repentance; all who truly receive it will obey it and be purified.
« Je vis que le témoignage du Témoin fidèle n’a pas été pris en considération pour moitié. Le témoignage solennel dont dépend la destinée de l’Église a été tenu en légère estime, sinon entièrement négligé. Ce témoignage doit produire une repentance profonde ; tous ceux qui le reçoivent véritablement lui obéiront et seront purifiés. »
“Said the angel, ‘List ye!’ Soon I heard a voice like many musical instruments all sounding in perfect strains, sweet and harmonious. It surpassed any music I had ever heard, seeming to be full of mercy, compassion, and elevating, holy joy. It thrilled through my whole being. Said the angel, ‘Look ye!’ My attention was then turned to the company I had seen, who were mightily shaken. I was shown those whom I had before seen weeping and praying in agony of spirit. The company of guardian angels around them had been doubled, and they were clothed with an armor from their head to their feet. They moved in exact order, like a company of soldiers. Their countenances expressed the severe conflict which they had endured, the agonizing struggle they had passed through. Yet their features, marked with severe internal anguish, now shone with the light and glory of heaven. They had obtained the victory, and it called forth from them the deepest gratitude and holy, sacred joy.
Anxoixoton, deydi: “Tıńlańlar!” Azdan soń men kóplegen saz áspaplarınıń bári kemel úndestikte, jaǵımlı hám garmonik únde birge shalyńǵanday bir daýıstı estidim. Ol men búginge shekem estigen hár qanday muzykadan asyp tústi; ol meyirimge, raqım-shapaǵatqa hám joqarı kóteriwshi, qásiyetli quwanıshqa tolıday sezildi. Ol meniń bútin bolmysymnan ótkeni syaqlı boldı. Anxoixoton, deydi: “Qarańlar!” Sodan keyin meniń nazarım men búrin kórgen, kúshli túrde silkingen topqa audarıldı. Maǵan aldın kóz jas tógip, jan azabymen dǵa etip turǵandardı kórsetti. Olarǵa aynalasa qorǵawshy perishteler tóbegi eki esse kóbeygen edi, al ózleri basınan ayaǵına deyin saýtpen quralǵan edi. Olar askerler tobınday naqty tártippən qozǵaldy. Olarǵıń júz-álsheleri ózleri basıp ótken qattı kúresti, tósken jan türshirlik azaptı bildiredi. Biraq ishki auyr qayıǵymen tańbalanǵan júz-syńpatları endi aspannıń nury hám salatanatymen jarqyrady. Olar jeńiske jetken edi, al bul olardan eń tereń alǵys pen qásiyetli, muqaddes quwanıshtı shıǵardy.
“The numbers of this company had lessened. Some had been shaken out and left by the way. The careless and indifferent, who did not join with those who prized victory and salvation enough to perseveringly plead and agonize for it, did not obtain it, and they were left behind in darkness, and their places were immediately filled by others taking hold of the truth and coming into the ranks. Evil angels still pressed around them, but could have no power over them.
Cette troupe avait vu son nombre diminuer. Quelques-uns avaient été secoués et laissés en chemin. Les insouciants et les indifférents, qui ne se joignaient pas à ceux qui estimaient la victoire et le salut assez précieux pour les rechercher avec persévérance dans les supplications et l’angoisse, ne les obtinrent pas; ils furent laissés en arrière dans les ténèbres, et leurs places furent aussitôt remplies par d’autres, qui s’emparaient de la vérité et venaient prendre rang. Les mauvais anges continuaient à se presser autour d’eux, mais ils ne pouvaient exercer sur eux aucun pouvoir.
“I heard those clothed with the armor speak forth the truth with great power. It had effect. Many had been bound; some wives by their husbands, and some children by their parents. The honest who had been prevented from hearing the truth now eagerly laid hold upon it. All fear of their relatives was gone, and the truth alone was exalted to them. They had been hungering and thirsting for truth; it was dearer and more precious than life. I asked what had made this great change. An angel answered, ‘It is the latter rain, the refreshing from the presence of the Lord, the loud cry of the third angel.’” Early Writings, 270, 271.
« J’entendis ceux qui étaient revêtus de l’armure proclamer la vérité avec une grande puissance. Cela produisit son effet. Beaucoup avaient été liés ; certaines épouses par leurs maris, et certains enfants par leurs parents. Les personnes sincères, que l’on avait empêchées d’entendre la vérité, s’en saisirent alors avec empressement. Toute crainte de leurs proches avait disparu, et la vérité seule était exaltée à leurs yeux. Elles avaient eu faim et soif de la vérité ; elle leur était plus chère et plus précieuse que la vie. Je demandai ce qui avait produit ce grand changement. Un ange répondit : “C’est la pluie de l’arrière-saison, le rafraîchissement venant de la présence du Seigneur, le grand cri du troisième ange.” » Early Writings, 270, 271.
The straight testimony to Laodicea that raises up an army after a severe shaking is the message to the valley of dead dry bones, and those bones represent the message of Moses and the messenger Elijah that were slain in the street on July 18, 2020 by a beast from the bottomless pit.
Le témoignage direct adressé à Laodicée, qui suscite une armée après un violent secouement, est le message à la vallée des ossements desséchés, et ces ossements représentent le message de Moïse et du messager Élie, qui furent mis à mort dans la rue le 18 juillet 2020 par une bête montant de l’abîme.
“A straight testimony must be borne to our churches and institutions, to arouse the sleeping ones.’
« Il faut rendre à nos Églises et à nos institutions un témoignage direct, afin de réveiller ceux qui dorment. »
“When the word of the Lord is believed and obeyed, steady advancement will be made. Let us now see our great need. The Lord cannot use us until he breathes life into the dry bones. I heard the words spoken: ‘Without the deep moving of the Spirit of God upon the heart, without its life-giving influence, truth becomes a dead letter.’” Review and Herald, November 18, 1902.
“Rabbiin dubbii amantamee yoo amaneffamee fi ajajame, adeemsi dhaabbataa ni taʼa. Amma immoo fedhii keenya guddaa haa ilaallu. Gooftaan hamma inni lafee goggogaa keessa hafuura hin baafnetti nu fayyadamuu hin dandaʼu. Jechoota dubbifaman nan dhagaʼe: ‘Sochii gadi fagoo Hafuura Waaqayyoo garaa irratti godhu malee, dhiibbaa isaa jireenya kennuun ala, dhugaan qubee duʼaa taʼa.’” Review and Herald, November 18, 1902.
We have shown that the four waymarks that represent the history of the seven thunders are represented in every reform line. In connection with that is the fact that in each reform line each of the four waymarks represent the same prophetic theme. With Moses the theme at each of the four waymarks typifying the seven thunders was the covenant with a chosen people. With David it was the ark of God. With Christ it was death and resurrection. With the Millerites it was the day for a year principle.
Chúng tôi đã chỉ ra rằng bốn mốc đường tiêu biểu cho lịch sử của bảy tiếng sấm được thể hiện trong mỗi đường cải cách. Liên hệ với điều đó là sự kiện rằng, trong mỗi đường cải cách, mỗi một trong bốn mốc đường đều tiêu biểu cho cùng một chủ đề tiên tri. Đối với Môi-se, chủ đề tại mỗi một trong bốn mốc đường, là những điều làm hình bóng cho bảy tiếng sấm, là giao ước với một dân được chọn. Đối với Đa-vít, đó là hòm giao ước của Đức Chúa Trời. Đối với Đấng Christ, đó là sự chết và sự phục sinh. Đối với những người Millerite, đó là nguyên tắc một ngày bằng một năm.
With Future for America, it is Islam. Islam on September 11, 2001. It was again Islam on July 18, 2020 with the failed prediction, the first disappointment and the beginning of a tarrying time. The third waymark that produces a mighty army that stands up is the message of the four winds, which represents Islam, the “angry horse” of Bible prophecy.
Avec Future for America, c’est l’islam. L’islam au 11 septembre 2001. Ce fut de nouveau l’islam le 18 juillet 2020, avec la prédiction manquée, la première déception et le commencement d’un temps d’attente. Le troisième jalon, qui fait surgir une armée puissante se levant debout, est le message des quatre vents, lequel représente l’islam, le « cheval en colère » de la prophétie biblique.
“Angels are holding the four winds, represented as an angry horse seeking to break loose and rush over the face of the whole earth, bearing destruction and death in its path.
« Les anges retiennent les quatre vents, représentés comme un cheval furieux cherchant à se déchaîner et à se ruer sur toute la face de la terre, semant sur son passage la destruction et la mort. »
“Shall we sleep on the very verge of the eternal world? Shall we be dull and cold and dead? Oh, that we might have in our churches the Spirit and breath of God breathed into His people, that they might stand upon their feet and live. We need to see that the way is narrow, and the gate strait. But as we pass through the strait gate, its wideness is without limit.” Manuscript Releases, volume 20, 216, 217.
«Միթե՞ պիտի ննջենք հենց իսկ հավիտենական աշխարհի շեմին։ Միթե՞ պիտի լինենք բութ, սառն ու մեռյալ։ Ո՜հ, երանի թե մեր եկեղեցիներում Աստծո Հոգին և շունչը փչվեր Նրա ժողովրդի մեջ, որպեսզի նրանք կանգնեին իրենց ոտքերի վրա և ապրեին։ Մենք պետք է տեսնենք, որ ճանապարհը նեղ է, և դուռը՝ սեղմ։ Բայց երբ անցնում ենք սեղմ դռնով, նրա լայնությունը սահման չունի»։ Manuscript Releases, volume 20, 216, 217.
Immediately after Elijah and Moses stand up, they are lifted up to heaven as an ensign.
Apenas após Elias e Moisés se levantarem, eles são elevados ao céu como estandarte.
And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. Revelation 11:12.
Na wakauda sa domo levu mai lomalagi sa kaya vei rau, Dou lako mai ki cake. A rau lako cake ki lomalagi ena dua na o; a raica na kedrau meca. Vakatakila 11:12.
We will address the ensign represented by Moses and Elijah in the next article.
Nous traiterons dans le prochain article de l’étendard représenté par Moïse et Élie.
