And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:1–17.
আর স্বর্গে আর-একটি মহা-চিহ্ন দেখা গেল; আর দেখ, এক মহা রক্তবর্ণ অজগর, তার সাতটি মস্তক ও দশটি শিং, এবং তার মস্তকগুলির উপর সাতটি মুকুট। আর তার লেজ স্বর্গের নক্ষত্রগুলির এক-তৃতীয়াংশ টেনে নিয়ে গিয়ে পৃথিবীতে নিক্ষেপ করল; আর সেই অজগর সেই স্ত্রীর সম্মুখে দাঁড়াল, যিনি প্রসবের জন্য প্রস্তুত ছিলেন, যেন তার সন্তান জন্মগ্রহণ করামাত্র তাকে গ্রাস করতে পারে। আর তিনি এক পুত্রসন্তানের জন্ম দিলেন, যিনি লৌহদণ্ড দ্বারা সমস্ত জাতির উপর শাসন করবেন; আর তাঁর সন্তান ঈশ্বরের কাছে এবং তাঁর সিংহাসনের কাছে তুলে নেওয়া হল। আর সেই স্ত্রী প্রান্তরে পালিয়ে গেলেন, যেখানে ঈশ্বরের দ্বারা তাঁর জন্য একটি স্থান প্রস্তুত করা হয়েছে, যাতে সেখানে তাঁকে এক হাজার দুই শত ষাট দিন প্রতিপালন করা হয়। আর স্বর্গে যুদ্ধ হল: মীখায়েল ও তাঁর দূতগণ অজগরের বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ করলেন; এবং অজগরও যুদ্ধ করল, এবং তার দূতগণও; কিন্তু তারা পরাজিত হল, এবং স্বর্গে তাদের জন্য আর কোনো স্থান পাওয়া গেল না। আর সেই মহা অজগরকে নিক্ষেপ করা হল, সেই প্রাচীন সর্প, যাকে দিয়াবল ও শয়তান বলা হয়, যে সমগ্র জগতকে প্রতারিত করে; তাকে পৃথিবীতে নিক্ষেপ করা হল, এবং তার দূতগণও তার সঙ্গে নিক্ষিপ্ত হল। আর আমি স্বর্গে এক উচ্চস্বরে বলতে শুনলাম, এখন পরিত্রাণ, এবং শক্তি, এবং আমাদের ঈশ্বরের রাজ্য, এবং তাঁর খ্রিষ্টের কর্তৃত্ব এসে গেছে; কারণ আমাদের ভ্রাতৃগণের অভিযোগকারী, যে আমাদের ঈশ্বরের সম্মুখে দিনরাত তাদের বিরুদ্ধে অভিযোগ করত, তাকে নিক্ষেপ করা হয়েছে। আর তারা মেষশাবকের রক্তের দ্বারা এবং নিজেদের সাক্ষ্যের বাক্যের দ্বারা তাকে পরাজিত করেছে; এবং তারা মৃত্যু পর্যন্ত নিজেদের প্রাণকে ভালোবাসেনি। অতএব, হে স্বর্গসমূহ, এবং তোমরা যারা তন্মধ্যে বাস কর, আনন্দ কর। হায় পৃথিবী ও সমুদ্রের অধিবাসীগণ! কারণ দিয়াবল তোমাদের কাছে নেমে এসেছে, মহা ক্রোধসহ, কারণ সে জানে যে তার সময় অল্প। আর অজগর যখন দেখল যে তাকে পৃথিবীতে নিক্ষেপ করা হয়েছে, তখন সে সেই স্ত্রীকে তাড়না করল, যিনি সেই পুত্রসন্তানকে জন্ম দিয়েছিলেন। আর সেই স্ত্রীকে এক মহান ঈগলের দুই ডানা দেওয়া হল, যেন তিনি সর্পের সম্মুখ হতে প্রান্তরে, তাঁর নিজের স্থানে, উড়ে যেতে পারেন, যেখানে তাঁকে এক কাল, দুই কাল, ও অর্ধকাল প্রতিপালন করা হয়। আর সর্প তার মুখ থেকে সেই স্ত্রীর পেছনে নদীর মতো জল উগরে দিল, যেন সে তাকে সেই স্রোতে ভাসিয়ে নিয়ে যেতে পারে। কিন্তু পৃথিবী সেই স্ত্রীকে সাহায্য করল, এবং পৃথিবী তার মুখ খুলে সেই প্লাবন গ্রাস করল, যা অজগর তার মুখ থেকে উগরে দিয়েছিল। আর অজগর সেই স্ত্রীর প্রতি ক্রুদ্ধ হল, এবং তার অবশিষ্ট বংশধরদের বিরুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ করতে চলে গেল, যারা ঈশ্বরের আদেশসমূহ পালন করে এবং যীশু খ্রিষ্টের সাক্ষ্য ধারণ করে। প্রকাশিত বাক্য 12:1–17।
The first battle in the great controversy between Christ and Satan, began in the third heaven with Lucifer’s rebellion, and that first battle typifies the last battle in the first heaven. There is more warfare, for at the end of the thousand-year millennium, Satan is loosed for a little season, and mounts an attack against Jerusalem, but that battle has no possibility of victory. The battle in the third heaven at the beginning, which represents the battle in the first heaven at the end, was carried out while probation was open.
Le premier combat du grand conflit entre Christ et Satan commença dans le troisième ciel avec la rébellion de Lucifer, et ce premier combat préfigure le dernier combat dans le premier ciel. Il y a encore d’autres guerres, car à la fin du millénium de mille ans, Satan est relâché pour un peu de temps et lance une attaque contre Jérusalem, mais ce combat n’a aucune possibilité de victoire. Le combat dans le troisième ciel au commencement, qui représente le combat dans le premier ciel à la fin, se déroula tandis que le temps de grâce était encore ouvert.
The “woman” that is pregnant with child, represents God’s church throughout history, and in the history of Christ she was about to give birth to the man child Jesus. In the last days, she gives birth to twins. Just before the Sunday law she births the one hundred and forty-four thousand, of Revelation seven, and at the Sunday law she begins the travail of birthing the great multitude of Revelation seven. Her twins are not identical, but they are twins, and the first born is Elijah and the younger son is Moses.
Die „Frau“, die schwanger ist, stellt Gottes Gemeinde im Verlauf der Geschichte dar, und in der Geschichte Christi stand sie im Begriff, das männliche Kind Jesus zu gebären. In den letzten Tagen bringt sie Zwillinge zur Welt. Unmittelbar vor dem Sonntagsgesetz gebiert sie die Hundertvierundvierzigtausend aus Offenbarung sieben, und beim Sonntagsgesetz beginnt sie die Geburtswehen, um die große Schar aus Offenbarung sieben hervorzubringen. Ihre Zwillinge sind nicht eineiig, aber sie sind Zwillinge, und der Erstgeborene ist Elia und der jüngere Sohn ist Mose.
In the beginning of spiritual Israel, the dragon of pagan Rome was waiting to devour the man child Jesus, and the dragon of modern Rome is now waiting to devour the man child of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. As pagan Rome persecuted the early Christian church, modern Rome will repeat the persecution during the Sunday law crisis. In the early Christian church, the woman fled into the wilderness for twelve hundred and sixty literal years, and the persecution of the Sunday law crisis is symbolized by the forty-two months of Revelation thirteen and verse five. In the wilderness God’s people have a place prepared for them where they are fed and nourished.
Mwanzoni mwa Israeli wa kiroho, yule joka wa Roma ya kipagani alikuwa akingojea kummeza Mtoto mwanamume, Yesu; na joka wa Roma ya kisasa sasa anangojea kummeza mtoto mwanamume wa wale mia moja arobaini na nne elfu. Kama vile Roma ya kipagani ilivyolitesa kanisa la Kikristo la awali, ndivyo Roma ya kisasa itakavyorudia mateso hayo wakati wa mgogoro wa sheria ya Jumapili. Katika kanisa la kwanza la Kikristo, yule mwanamke alikimbilia nyikani kwa miaka halisi elfu moja mia mbili sitini, na mateso ya mgogoro wa sheria ya Jumapili yanaonyeshwa kwa mfano wa ile miezi arobaini na miwili ya Ufunuo kumi na tatu, aya ya tano. Huko nyikani watu wa Mungu wana mahali palipoandaliwa kwa ajili yao, ambako wanalishwa na kutunzwa.
In Revelation chapter eight, and verse thirteen, the last three trumpets are identified as three woes. The woes in Revelation represent the trumpet judgments of Islam against the powers that pass Sunday laws. In the warfare that is illustrated in chapter twelve, the role of Islam is identified when it states, “Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” The persecution that Jezebel accomplishes through her apostate husband Ahab, is directed at the “earth” beast and the “sea” beast.
Dans Apocalypse, chapitre huit, verset treize, les trois dernières trompettes sont désignées comme trois malheurs. Les malheurs dans l’Apocalypse représentent les jugements des trompettes de l’islam contre les puissances qui imposent des lois dominicales. Dans le conflit illustré au chapitre douze, le rôle de l’islam est identifié lorsqu’il est déclaré : « Malheur aux habitants de la terre et de la mer ! car le diable est descendu vers vous, animé d’une grande colère, sachant qu’il n’a que peu de temps. » La persécution que Jézabel accomplit par l’entremise de son mari apostat, Achab, est dirigée contre la bête de la « terre » et la bête de la « mer ».
The movement of the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen, as with every reform movement, has four primary waymarks that lead to and include the judgment. For the movement of the first angel, those four waymarks were August 11, 1840, the first disappointment in the Spring of 1843, the arrival of the message of the Midnight Cry August 12 through 17 in 1844, and the opening of the judgment on October 22, 1844. Each of those four waymarks possessed the same overlying theme of “time.” August 11, 1840, was a fulfillment of the time prophecy of Revelation chapter nine, and verse fifteen. The first disappointment of 1843, represented a failed prediction of time. The Midnight Cry message was the correction of the previously failed prediction of time, and October 22, 1844, was the fulfillment of the predicted time of the message of the Midnight Cry.
Harakati ya malaika mwenye nguvu wa Ufunuo kumi na nane, kama ilivyo kwa kila harakati ya matengenezo, ina alama kuu nne za njia zinazoongoza hadi hukumu na kuijumuisha. Kwa harakati ya malaika wa kwanza, alama hizo nne za njia zilikuwa Agosti 11, 1840, kukatishwa tamaa kwa kwanza katika Majira ya Kuchipua ya 1843, kufika kwa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa manane tarehe 12 hadi 17 Agosti, 1844, na kufunguliwa kwa hukumu tarehe 22 Oktoba, 1844. Kila moja ya alama hizo nne za njia ilikuwa na mada ileile kuu ya “wakati.” Agosti 11, 1840, ulikuwa utimilifu wa unabii wa wakati wa Ufunuo sura ya tisa, aya ya kumi na tano. Kukatishwa tamaa kwa kwanza kwa mwaka 1843 kuliwakilisha utabiri wa wakati ulioshindwa. Ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa manane ulikuwa urekebisho wa utabiri wa wakati uliokuwa umeshindwa hapo awali, na Oktoba 22, 1844, ulikuwa utimilifu wa wakati uliotabiriwa wa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa manane.
The movement of the third angel has those same four waymarks, for they exist in every reform line, and as with all of those four waymarks of every reform line, each waymark possesses the same prophetic theme. Islam of the third woe, is the theme of the four waymarks in the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. On September 11, 2001 Islam of the third woe was released and then restrained. The failed prediction of July 18, 2020 identified an Islamic attack upon Nashville, Tennessee, and represented Islam of the third woe. The message that awakens the dead dry bones that are in the street of Revelation eleven, is the perfect and final fulfillment of the Midnight Cry message, and it represents a correction of the Nashville prediction (without the element of time). It will be fulfilled at the fourth waymark, which is the Sunday law, where Islam of the third woe will strike the United States because of its enforcement of the soon-coming Sunday law.
حرکتِ فرشتۂ سوم کے بھی وہی چار نشانِ راہ ہیں، کیونکہ وہ ہر اصلاحی خط میں پائے جاتے ہیں، اور جیسا کہ ہر اصلاحی خط کے ان چاروں نشانِ راہ کے ساتھ ہوتا ہے، ہر نشانِ راہ اسی ایک نبوی موضوع کا حامل ہوتا ہے۔ تیسرے افسوس کا اسلام، ایک لاکھ چوالیس ہزار کی تحریک میں ان چاروں نشانِ راہ کا موضوع ہے۔ 11 ستمبر 2001 کو تیسرے افسوس کا اسلام رہا کیا گیا اور پھر روکا گیا۔ 18 جولائی 2020 کی ناکام پیش گوئی نے نیشویل، ٹینیسی پر ایک اسلامی حملے کی نشان دہی کی، اور وہ تیسرے افسوس کے اسلام کی نمائندگی کرتی تھی۔ وہ پیغام جو مکاشفہ گیارہ کی سڑک میں پڑی ہوئی مردہ خشک ہڈیوں کو بیدار کرتا ہے، نصف شب کی پکار کے پیغام کی کامل اور آخری تکمیل ہے، اور یہ نیشویل کی پیش گوئی کی ایک اصلاح کی نمائندگی کرتا ہے (وقت کے عنصر کے بغیر)۔ یہ چوتھے نشانِ راہ پر، یعنی اتوار کے قانون کے وقت، پورا ہوگا، جہاں تیسرے افسوس کا اسلام ریاستہائے متحدہ پر اس کے عنقریب نافذ ہونے والے اتوار کے قانون کے نفاذ کے سبب ضرب لگائے گا۔
When this truth is recognized, in conjunction with the fact that the mighty movement of the third angel is a warning of impending judgment, the Islamic judgment represented by the third woe can be easily understood as the “woe” that is brought upon “earth” and “sea.”
Kana dhugaan kun yeroo beekametti, akkasumas sochiin humna-qabeessa ergamaa sadaffaa akeekkachiisa firdii dhihaataa taʼuu isaa wajjin walqabsiisuudhaan, firdiin Islaamaa kan wayyoo sadaffaatiin bakka buʼu “wayyoo” isa “lafa” fi “galaana” irratti fidamu taʼuu isaa salphaatti hubatamuu dandaʼa.
The judgment of the living began on September 11, 2001, and from that point, until the soon-coming Sunday law, the test of the formation of the image of the beast takes place in the United States. From the Sunday law until Michael stands up and human probation closes, the rest of the world will then be tested by the formation of the image of the beast. Whether Seventh-day Adventists in the United States are being tested, or the entire world after the Sunday law is being tested, the test is defined as the test where our eternal destiny will be decided. It is also the test we must pass, before probation closes at the Sunday law. The prophetic phenomenon of an image to the beast test first in the United States and then again in the world, is essential to understand correctly.
Le jugement des vivants a commencé le 11 septembre 2001, et à partir de ce moment-là, jusqu’à la loi dominicale qui doit bientôt venir, l’épreuve de la formation de l’image de la bête a lieu aux États-Unis. Depuis la loi dominicale jusqu’au moment où Michaël se lèvera et où la probation humaine prendra fin, le reste du monde sera alors mis à l’épreuve par la formation de l’image de la bête. Que les adventistes du septième jour aux États-Unis soient mis à l’épreuve, ou que le monde entier, après la loi dominicale, soit mis à l’épreuve, cette épreuve est définie comme celle où notre destinée éternelle sera décidée. C’est aussi l’épreuve que nous devons traverser avec succès avant que la probation ne prenne fin à la loi dominicale. Le phénomène prophétique d’une épreuve de l’image de la bête, d’abord aux États-Unis puis de nouveau dans le monde, est essentiel à comprendre correctement.
“As America, the land of religious liberty, shall unite with the Papacy in forcing the conscience and compelling men to honor the false sabbath, the people of every country on the globe will be led to follow her example.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18.
«Америка, кишваре ки озодии динӣ дар он ҷост, вақте ки бо Папагӣ муттаҳид шуда, виҷдонро маҷбур созад ва одамонро водор намояд, ки шанбеи козибро эҳтиром кунанд, мардуми ҳар як кишвари рӯи замин ба пайравӣ аз намунаи он раҳнамун хоҳанд шуд.» Testimonies, volume 6, 18.
When the symbols are understood, then the passage in Revelation thirteen, that addresses these two successive, but identical image of the beast tests, can be easily recognized. It is important for a variety of reasons. One reason is the corrupted communications that Lucifer employed in the first war in the third heaven illustrate how Satan’s corrupted communications will manifest again in the last war in the first heaven.
Mahangop no simbolo, saka an sipi sa Pahayag kapitulo trese, na nagtatao nin pagtalubo sa duwang magkasurunod, alagad magkaparehong pagsulay kan ladawan kan hayop, dai na mahirap makilala. Mahalaga ini sa sari-saring dahilan. An saro sa mga dahilan iyo ini: an mga ginabaan nang komunikasyon na ginamit ni Lucifer sa enot na gera sa ikatolong langit, nagpapakita kun pauno liwat mahahayag an ginabaan nang komunikasyon ni Satanas sa huring gera sa enot na langit.
The war of the first heaven that begins at the Sunday law, is accomplished during the testing period of the image of the beast for the entire world. Since September 11, 2001, the testing period of the image of the beast in the United States has been taking place. When we recognize these two testing periods as sequential, beginning with the United States and then the world, we can then factor in truths that are represented in the war of Revelation chapter twelve, back into the history of 2001, unto the Sunday law. As an example, the corrupted communications of Lucifer that is defined as hypnosis, will be employed in a modern application by the dragon power during the battle of the first heaven, of Revelation chapter twelve. The hypnosis that is employed by the dragon in that history is for the purpose of murdering those that Jezebel has identified as heretics.
De oorlog van de eerste hemel, die bij de zondagswet begint, wordt voltrokken gedurende de beproevingsperiode van het beeld van het beest voor de gehele wereld. Sinds 11 september 2001 is de beproevingsperiode van het beeld van het beest in de Verenigde Staten gaande. Wanneer wij deze twee beproevingsperioden als opeenvolgend erkennen, beginnend met de Verenigde Staten en vervolgens de wereld, kunnen wij vervolgens waarheden die in de oorlog van Openbaring hoofdstuk twaalf worden voorgesteld, terugplaatsen in de geschiedenis van 2001, tot aan de zondagswet. Als voorbeeld: de verdorven communicatie van Lucifer, die wordt omschreven als hypnose, zal in een moderne toepassing door de macht van de draak worden aangewend gedurende de strijd van de eerste hemel van Openbaring hoofdstuk twaalf. De hypnose die door de draak in die geschiedenis wordt aangewend, is met het doel hen te vermoorden die door Izebel als ketters zijn aangemerkt.
In the history of 2001, to the Sunday law, two witnesses were murdered in the street of Sodom and Egypt. In the first fulfillment of Revelation eleven, the nation represented by Sodom and Egypt, was France. France is a prophetic nation that consists of two powers, as did the Medo-Persian Empire, as did ancient Israel in its divided kingdoms, and as did the two tribes of Judah represented by Judah and Benjamin. All two-horned nations symbolically represent the two-horned nation of the United States.
Dans l’histoire de 2001, jusqu’à la loi du dimanche, les deux témoins furent mis à mort dans la rue de Sodome et d’Égypte. Dans le premier accomplissement d’Apocalypse 11, la nation représentée par Sodome et l’Égypte était la France. La France est une nation prophétique composée de deux puissances, comme l’était l’Empire médo-perse, comme l’était l’ancien Israël dans ses royaumes divisés, et comme l’étaient les deux tribus de Juda représentées par Juda et Benjamin. Toutes les nations à deux cornes représentent symboliquement la nation à deux cornes des États-Unis.
The city of Sodom, and nation of Egypt, represents the two horns of Republicanism (Egypt) and Protestantism (Sodom). Two horns were slain in 2020, the horn of Republicanism and the horn of Protestantism. The hypnotism employed by the globalist dragon powers, through the medium of the worldwide web was then employed, in the same fashion that it will be employed in the upcoming war of the first heaven. By controlling the message that the worldwide web produced, the election of 2020, was scientifically manipulated to produce an outcome that agreed with the philosophy of globalism. This is simply an example of the necessity of understanding that the image of the beast test is accomplished first in the United States, and then in the world.
مَدینَةُ سَدُومَ، وَأُمَّةُ مِصرَ، تُمَثِّلانِ القَرنَینِ: الجُمهورِيَّةَ (مِصرَ) وَالبُروتِستانتِيَّةَ (سَدُومَ). وَقَد قُتِلَ قَرنَانِ فِي عَامِ 2020، قَرنُ الجُمهورِيَّةِ وَقَرنُ البُروتِستانتِيَّةِ. ثُمَّ استُخدِمَ التَّنويمُ المِغناطِيسِيُّ الَّذِي وَظَّفَتهُ قُوَى التِّنِّينِ العالَمِيَّةُ، مِن خِلالِ وَسيطِ الشَّبَكَةِ العَنكَبُوتِيَّةِ العالَمِيَّةِ، عَلَى النَّحوِ نَفسِهِ الَّذِي سَيُستَخدَمُ بِهِ فِي الحَربِ المُقبِلَةِ لِلسَّماءِ الأُولَى. وَمِن خِلالِ السَّيطَرَةِ عَلَى الرِّسالَةِ الَّتِي أَنتَجَتها الشَّبَكَةُ العَنكَبُوتِيَّةُ العالَمِيَّةُ، جَرَى التَّلاعُبُ بِانتِخاباتِ 2020 عَلَى نَحوٍ عِلمِيٍّ لِإِنتاجِ نَتِيجَةٍ تَتَّفِقُ مَعَ فَلسَفَةِ العَولَمَةِ. وَهٰذا لَيسَ إِلَّا مِثالًا عَلَى ضَرورَةِ فَهمِ أَنَّ اختِبارَ صُورَةِ الوَحشِ يَتِمُّ أَوَّلًا فِي الوِلاياتِ المُتَّحِدَةِ، ثُمَّ فِي العالَمِ.
“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.
“Le Seigneur m’a clairement montré que l’image de la bête sera formée avant la fin du temps de grâce ; car elle doit être la grande épreuve pour le peuple de Dieu, par laquelle sa destinée éternelle sera décidée. Votre position est un tel tissu d’incohérences que bien peu s’y laisseront tromper. »
“In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].
“Na Ufunuo 13 somo hili limewasilishwa kwa uwazi; [Ufunuo 13:11–17, imenukuliwa].”
“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.
«Ceci est l’épreuve que le peuple de Dieu doit traverser avant d’être scellé. Tous ceux qui auront prouvé leur fidélité à Dieu en observant sa loi et en refusant d’accepter un faux sabbat se rangeront sous la bannière du Seigneur Dieu Jéhovah et recevront le sceau du Dieu vivant. Ceux qui abandonnent la vérité d’origine céleste et acceptent le sabbat du dimanche recevront la marque de la bête.» Manuscript Releases, volume 15, p. 15.
Probation closes for Seventh-day Adventists, at the enforcement of the Sunday law. Those countries that follow the example of the United States, will close their probation as did the United States.
La probation prend fin pour les adventistes du septième jour, lors de l’application de la loi du dimanche. Les pays qui suivront l’exemple des États-Unis mettront fin à leur probation, comme l’ont fait les États-Unis.
“Foreign nations will follow the example of the United States. Though she leads out, yet the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.” Testimonies, volume 6, 395.
« À l’exemple des États-Unis, les nations étrangères suivront la même voie. Bien que ceux-ci prennent l’initiative, la même crise surviendra néanmoins pour notre peuple dans toutes les parties du monde. » Testimonies, vol. 6, p. 395.
The final movements are rapid ones.
Les derniers mouvements sont rapides.
“The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.” Testimonies, volume 9, 11.
“Les puissances du mal unissent leurs forces et se regroupent. Elles se fortifient en vue de la dernière grande crise. De grands changements vont bientôt se produire dans notre monde, et les derniers événements seront rapides.” Testimonies, volume 9, 11.
To understand the test of the image of the beast, requires a certain amount of technical prophetic application. To start with, the mark of the beast and the image of the beast are two different symbols.
Pour comprendre l’épreuve de l’image de la bête, il faut un certain degré d’application technique de la prophétie. Pour commencer, la marque de la bête et l’image de la bête sont deux symboles différents.
“The ‘image to the beast’ represents that form of apostate Protestantism which will be developed when the Protestant churches shall seek the aid of the civil power for the enforcement of their dogmas. The ‘mark of the beast’ still remains to be defined.” The Great Controversy, 445.
« L’“image de la bête” représente cette forme de protestantisme apostat qui se développera lorsque les Églises protestantes chercheront l’appui du pouvoir civil pour faire appliquer leurs dogmes. La “marque de la bête” reste encore à définir. » The Great Controversy, 445.
The mark of the beast is Sunday observance, and the image of the beast is a church that employs the civil power to enforce her religious doctrines.
A maama a akekaboa no ne Kwasiada som, na aboa no mfonini no ne asafo a ɔde aban tumi di dwuma de hyɛ ne nyamesom nkyerɛkyerɛ mu den.
“The enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy—of the beast. Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose to observe the false instead of the true Sabbath are thereby paying homage to that power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcing a religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form an image to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping in the United States would be an enforcement of the worship of the beast and his image.” The Great Controversy, 448, 449.
“Utekelezaji wa utunzaji wa Jumapili kwa upande wa makanisa ya Kiprotestanti ni utekelezaji wa ibada ya upapa—ya yule mnyama. Wale ambao, kwa kuelewa madai ya amri ya nne, huchagua kuishika sabato ya uongo badala ya Sabato ya kweli, kwa tendo hilo wanatoa heshima kwa mamlaka ile ambayo kwa hiyo peke yake jambo hilo huamriwa. Lakini katika tendo lenyewe la kulazimisha wajibu wa kidini kwa mamlaka ya kiraia, makanisa hayo yangeunda yenyewe mfano wa yule mnyama; kwa hiyo utekelezaji wa utunzaji wa Jumapili katika Marekani ungekuwa utekelezaji wa ibada ya yule mnyama na sanamu yake.” The Great Controversy, 448, 449.
The image of the beast represents the combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship. Jezebel ruled over Ahab, as Herodias ruled over Herod. The mark of the beast is Sunday keeping. The image of the beast develops over a period of time. The mark of the beast represents a point in time. The image of the beast progressively develops, but only reaches its full maturity, when it has the power to force the state to pass its religious dogmas. The test is associated with the “formation” of the image.
L’image de la bête représente la combinaison de l’Église et de l’État, l’Église exerçant le contrôle de cette relation. Jézabel dominait sur Achab, comme Hérodiade dominait sur Hérode. La marque de la bête est l’observance du dimanche. L’image de la bête se développe sur une période de temps. La marque de la bête représente un moment précis dans le temps. L’image de la bête se développe progressivement, mais n’atteint sa pleine maturité que lorsqu’elle possède le pouvoir de contraindre l’État à faire adopter ses dogmes religieux. L’épreuve est associée à la « formation » de l’image.
“But what is the ‘image to the beast’? and how is it to be formed? The image is made by the two-horned beast, and is an image to the beast. It is also called an image of the beast. Then to learn what the image is like and how it is to be formed we must study the characteristics of the beast itself—the papacy.
«Mais qu’est-ce que l’“image de la bête” ? et comment doit-elle être formée ? L’image est faite par la bête à deux cornes, et elle est une image de la bête. Elle est aussi appelée une image de la bête. Ainsi, pour apprendre à quoi ressemble l’image et comment elle doit être formée, nous devons étudier les caractéristiques de la bête elle-même — la papauté. »
“When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a church that controlled the power of the state and employed it to further her own ends, especially for the punishment of ‘heresy.’ In order for the United States to form an image of the beast, the religious power must so control the civil government that the authority of the state will also be employed by the church to accomplish her own ends.” The Great Controversy, 443.
“Wakati kanisa la kwanza lilipoharibika kwa kuiacha hali ya unyofu wa injili na kukubali ibada na desturi za kipagani, lilimpoteza Roho na nguvu za Mungu; na ili kutawala dhamiri za watu, likatafuta msaada wa mamlaka ya kidunia. Matokeo yake yakawa upapa, kanisa lililotawala mamlaka ya serikali na kuitumia kuendeleza makusudi yake yenyewe, hasa kwa ajili ya kuadhibu ‘uzushi.’ Ili Marekani iunde sanamu ya mnyama, ni lazima mamlaka ya kidini itawale serikali ya kiraia kwa namna ambayo mamlaka ya serikali nayo yatatumiwa na kanisa kutimiza makusudi yake yenyewe.” The Great Controversy, 443.
The distinction between the image of the beast and the mark of the beast is fairly traditional Adventist understanding. Where Adventism generally loses its way on this subject is in Revelation thirteen. They somehow mix the activity of the United States after the Sunday law, when it forces the world to set up an image to the beast, with the setting up of the image of the beast in the United States. They are two different prophetic periods.
La distinction entre l’image de la bête et la marque de la bête relève d’une compréhension adventiste assez traditionnelle. Là où l’adventisme s’égare généralement sur ce sujet, c’est dans Apocalypse treize. D’une manière ou d’une autre, il confond l’activité des États-Unis après la loi du dimanche, lorsqu’ils contraignent le monde à ériger une image à la bête, avec l’érection de l’image de la bête aux États-Unis. Il s’agit de deux périodes prophétiques différentes.
Christ came to confirm the covenant with many for one week, and in the middle of the week He was crucified. Thus, that week typifies the two periods of time when an image of the beast is formed. Christ’s week was divided into two identical periods, representing the image of Christ. The two testing periods of times in the last days, represents the image of the antichrist.
Christ est venu confirmer l’alliance avec plusieurs pendant une semaine, et au milieu de la semaine Il fut crucifié. Ainsi, cette semaine est le type des deux périodes de temps au cours desquelles une image de la bête est formée. La semaine du Christ fut divisée en deux périodes identiques, représentant l’image du Christ. Les deux périodes de mise à l’épreuve dans les derniers jours représentent l’image de l’antichrist.
In the first period of twelve hundred and sixty days, Christ bore His own testimony, and then He died on the cross. There was then an identical twelve hundred and sixty days where the disciples testified, until Michael stood up at the stoning of Stephen. The cross typifies the Sunday law. The two periods of testing in connection with the formation of the image of the beast, identify the first period in connection with the one hundred and forty-four thousand, who are typified by Christ, and that period ends at the Sunday law, which is typified by the cross. The last identical period of testing that was represented by the work of the disciples in the time of Christ, focuses upon the great multitude, and it ends when Michael stands up, not at the stoning of Stephen, but at the close of human probation in Daniel 12:1.
Na primeira fase de mil duzentos e sessenta dias, Cristo deu o Seu próprio testemunho, e então morreu na cruz. Houve depois outros mil duzentos e sessenta dias idênticos, durante os quais os discípulos deram testemunho, até que Miguel Se levantou no apedrejamento de Estêvão. A cruz tipifica a lei dominical. Os dois períodos de prova em conexão com a formação da imagem da besta identificam o primeiro período em conexão com os cento e quarenta e quatro mil, os quais são tipificados por Cristo, e esse período termina na lei dominical, que é tipificada pela cruz. O último período idêntico de prova, representado pela obra dos discípulos no tempo de Cristo, focaliza a grande multidão e termina quando Miguel Se levanta, não no apedrejamento de Estêvão, mas no encerramento da graça para a humanidade em Daniel 12:1.
Some fail to see the actual sequence of events in Revelation thirteen, verse eleven and onward, due to what often appears to be a purposeful unwillingness to acknowledge that when the United States speaks as a dragon, it represents the complete formation of the image of the beast in the United States. In order for the United States to pass a Sunday law, the image of the beast in the United States must be formed before the Sunday law. Read the few previous passages just cited from The Great Controversy again, if you do not understand the point.
Baadhi hushindwa kuona mfululizo halisi wa matukio katika Ufunuo kumi na tatu, aya ya kumi na moja na kuendelea, kwa sababu ya kile ambacho mara nyingi huonekana kuwa ni kutotaka kwa makusudi kukubali kwamba wakati Marekani inanena kama joka, hilo linawakilisha kukamilika kwa kuundwa kwa sanamu ya mnyama katika Marekani. Ili Marekani ipitishe sheria ya Jumapili, ni lazima sanamu ya mnyama katika Marekani iwe imeundwa kabla ya sheria ya Jumapili. Soma tena vifungu vichache vilivyotangulia vilivyonukuliwa hivi punde kutoka katika Pambano Kuu, ikiwa huelewi hoja hiyo.
When the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven of chapter thirteen, it represents the action of the legislative and judicial authorities passing a Sunday law at the direction of the apostate churches in the United States. The Sunday law decree goes out of the mouth of the United States.
Lorsque les États-Unis parlent comme un dragon, au verset onze du chapitre treize, cela représente l’action des autorités législatives et judiciaires adoptant une loi du dimanche sous la direction des Églises apostates aux États-Unis. Le décret imposant la loi du dimanche sort de la bouche des États-Unis.
“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.” Spalding and Magan, 1.
«Я увидела, что у зверя с двумя рогами были уста дракона, и что сила его была в его голове, и что указ выйдет из его уст». Spalding and Magan, 1.
It has always amazed me that Adventism has a hard time recognizing that when the two horned earth beast speaks as a dragon, it is not simply marking the Sunday law in the United States, but is also marking that the image of the papal sea beast has been fully developed. In order for the United States to pass the Sunday law, the combination of church and state has to have first been fully developed. The apostate churches of the United States do not simply come together on a Monday, then go to Congress on Tuesday, and tell Congress they want Sunday legislation passed by Wednesday. The combining process that takes place between church and state, is represented as the “formation” of the image of the beast like the “formation” of the golden image in Daniel chapter 3, it will take some time to construct. The image of the beast is the system the papacy used to murder the millions of martyrs in the Dark Ages, and it takes social, political, religious and economic developments to create the social environment, and legal precedence necessary, for the Sunday law to be enforced. Those developments represent the test of the image of the beast, by “which our eternal destiny will be decided,” and it represents the test we must pass “before we are sealed.”
Es hat mich immer wieder in Erstaunen versetzt, dass der Adventismus nur schwer erkennt, dass dann, wenn das zweihörnige Tier aus der Erde wie ein Drache redet, damit nicht einfach nur das Sonntagsgesetz in den Vereinigten Staaten gekennzeichnet wird, sondern zugleich auch, dass das Bild des päpstlichen Meerestieres vollständig ausgebildet worden ist. Damit die Vereinigten Staaten das Sonntagsgesetz erlassen können, muss die Verbindung von Kirche und Staat zuvor vollständig entwickelt worden sein. Die abgefallenen Kirchen der Vereinigten Staaten kommen nicht einfach an einem Montag zusammen, gehen dann am Dienstag zum Kongress und sagen dem Kongress, sie wollten, dass bis Mittwoch eine Sonntagsgesetzgebung verabschiedet werde. Der Vereinigungsprozess, der zwischen Kirche und Staat stattfindet, wird als die „Bildung“ des Bildes des Tieres dargestellt, gleichwie die „Errichtung“ des goldenen Bildes in Daniel Kapitel 3; seine Ausgestaltung wird einige Zeit in Anspruch nehmen. Das Bild des Tieres ist das System, dessen sich das Papsttum bediente, um in den finsteren Jahrhunderten die Millionen von Märtyrern zu ermorden, und es bedarf sozialer, politischer, religiöser und wirtschaftlicher Entwicklungen, um das gesellschaftliche Umfeld und die rechtlichen Voraussetzungen zu schaffen, die notwendig sind, damit das Sonntagsgesetz durchgesetzt werden kann. Diese Entwicklungen stellen die Prüfung des Bildes des Tieres dar, durch „welche unser ewiges Geschick entschieden wird“, und sie stellen die Prüfung dar, die wir bestehen müssen, „ehe wir versiegelt werden.“
“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. . .. This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.
“Bwana amenionyesha wazi kwamba sanamu ya mnyama itafanyizwa kabla ya muda wa rehema kufungwa; kwa maana hiyo ndiyo itakuwa jaribu kuu kwa watu wa Mungu, ambalo kwa hilo hatima yao ya milele itaamuliwa.... Hili ndilo jaribu ambalo watu wa Mungu hawana budi kulipitia kabla hawajatiwa muhuri.” Manuscript Releases, juzuu ya 15, 15.
The Sunday law is the crisis at midnight, that finds its final perfect fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins. In that midnight crisis, it will be manifested whether we are wise Philadelphian or foolish Laodicean virgins. The foolish receive the mark of the beast and the wise receive the seal of God. Anyone who has ever joined the Seventh-day Adventist church, agreed to the list of doctrinal truths in advance of becoming a member, and therefore every Seventh-day Adventist has been presented with the light of the truth of the Sabbath.
Sharcii Axadda waa qalalaasaha saqda dhexe, kaas oo hela dhammaystirkiisa ugu dambeeya ee kaamilka ah ee masaalka tobanka bikradood. Qalalaasahaas saqda dhexe ah waxaa lagu muujin doonaa in aynu nahay bikrado xigmad leh oo Filadelfiyaan ah mise bikrado nacas ah oo La’odikiyaan ah. Kuwa nacaska ah waxay helaan calaamadda bahalka, kuwa xigmadda lehna waxay helaan shaabadda Ilaah. Qof kasta oo weligiis ku biiray kaniisadda Toddobaadka-maalin Adventist, oo horay ugu raacay liiska runaha caqiidada ka hor inta aanu xubin noqon, sidaas darteedna Adventist kasta oo Toddobaadka-maalin ah waxaa la hor dhigay iftiinka runta Sabtida.
“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.
“यदि सत्यको ज्योति तिमीहरूलाई प्रस्तुत गरिएको छ, जसले चौथो आज्ञाको विश्रामदिन प्रकट गर्दछ, र देखाउँछ कि आइतबारको पालना गर्नका लागि परमेश्वरको वचनमा कुनै आधार छैन, तापनि तिमीहरू अझै पनि झूटा विश्रामदिनलाई नै समातिरहन्छौ, परमेश्वरले ‘मेरो पवित्र दिन’ भन्नुभएको विश्रामदिनलाई पवित्र मान्न इन्कार गर्दै, तब तिमीहरूले पशुको छाप ग्रहण गर्दछौ। यो कहिले हुन्छ?—जब तिमीहरू त्यो आदेशको आज्ञापालन गर्दछौ जसले तिमीहरूलाई आइतबार श्रमबाट विराम लिन र परमेश्वरको आराधना गर्न आदेश दिन्छ, जबकि तिमीहरूलाई थाहा छ कि आइतबार सामान्य कामकाजी दिन बाहेक अरू केही हो भनी देखाउने एउटा पनि शब्द बाइबलमा छैन, तब तिमीहरू पशुको छाप ग्रहण गर्न सहमत हुन्छौ, र परमेश्वरको छापलाई अस्वीकार गर्दछौ। यदि हामीले यो छाप हाम्रो निधारमा वा हाम्रो हातमा ग्रहण गर्यौं भने, आज्ञा नमान्नेहरूका विरुद्ध उच्चारित गरिएका न्यायहरू हामीमाथि अवश्य आउनुपर्छ। तर जीवित परमेश्वरको छाप तिनीहरूमाथि राखिन्छ जो प्रभुको विश्रामदिनलाई विवेकपूर्वक पालन गर्छन्।” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.
The formation of the image of the beast in the United States began prophetically on September 11, 2001. There are several prophetic witnesses to uphold this fact. From that point until the soon-coming Sunday law, Seventh-day Adventists are determining their eternal destiny, based upon whether they pass the image of the beast test or fail the image of the beast test. I would argue that very few Seventh-day Adventists even know that the image of the beast is a test. Few, if any, know how it can be a test, and more importantly, they do not know what is required to pass the test. We are judged, not alone by the light we possess, but also by the light we could have possessed, if we would have applied ourselves to understanding the increase of knowledge. Laodicean blindness is therefore the greatest blindness in six thousand years of sin.
Die Bildung des Bildes des Tieres in den Vereinigten Staaten begann prophetisch am 11. September 2001. Es gibt mehrere prophetische Zeugen, die diese Tatsache bekräftigen. Von jenem Zeitpunkt an bis zum bald kommenden Sonntagsgesetz bestimmen die Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten ihr ewiges Geschick danach, ob sie die Prüfung des Bildes des Tieres bestehen oder die Prüfung des Bildes des Tieres nicht bestehen. Ich würde geltend machen, dass nur sehr wenige Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten überhaupt wissen, dass das Bild des Tieres eine Prüfung ist. Nur wenige, wenn überhaupt welche, wissen, wie es eine Prüfung sein kann, und was noch wichtiger ist: Sie wissen nicht, was erforderlich ist, um diese Prüfung zu bestehen. Wir werden gerichtet, nicht allein nach dem Licht, das wir besitzen, sondern auch nach dem Licht, das wir hätten besitzen können, wenn wir uns dem Verständnis der Vermehrung der Erkenntnis gewidmet hätten. Die Blindheit von Laodizea ist daher die größte Blindheit in sechstausend Jahren der Sünde.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6.
Abantu bange bayabhujiswa ngokuswela ulwazi; ngenxa yokuba ulalile ulwazi, nami ngiyakukulahla, ukuze ungabi ngumpristi kimi; lokhu njengoba ukhohliwe umthetho kaNkulunkulu wakho, nami ngiyakhohlwa abantwana bakho. Hosea 4:6.
The test of the formation of the image of the beast ends at the soon-coming Sunday law, and if we have not passed that test, we will receive the mark of the beast with all the other foolish Laodicean virgins, who refused to obtain the oil. I am not here defending why I understand the image of the beast test began on September 11, 2001, and ends at the Sunday law. I am simply identifying the prophetic logic necessary to understand the role of the United States, as identified in Revelation thirteen, after it passes the Sunday law. In verse eleven, it speaks as a dragon, and from that point on it is important to follow the word “he.” The image of the beast that the United States is then forcing the world to set up, is not the image of the beast in the United States, for that is already in the past.
La prueba de la formación de la imagen de la bestia termina con la ley dominical que pronto ha de venir, y si no hemos pasado esa prueba, recibiremos la marca de la bestia juntamente con todas las demás vírgenes insensatas laodicenses, que rehusaron obtener el aceite. No estoy aquí defendiendo por qué entiendo que la prueba de la imagen de la bestia comenzó el 11 de septiembre de 2001 y termina con la ley dominical. Simplemente estoy identificando la lógica profética necesaria para comprender el papel de los Estados Unidos, tal como se los identifica en Apocalipsis trece, después de que promulguen la ley dominical. En el versículo once, habla como dragón, y a partir de ese punto es importante seguir la palabra «él». La imagen de la bestia que entonces los Estados Unidos están obligando al mundo a levantar, no es la imagen de la bestia en los Estados Unidos, pues esa ya pertenece al pasado.
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And 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 in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 13:11–17.
Ke ile ka bona sebata se sengwe se tlhatloga mo lefatsheng; mme se ne se na le dinaka tse pedi jaaka kwanyana, mme sa bua jaaka kgogela. Mme se dirisa thata yotlhe ya sebata sa ntlha mo pele ga sone, mme se dira gore lefatshe le ba ba nnang mo go lone ba obamele sebata sa ntlha, se ntho ya sone e e neng e bolaya e neng ya fodisiwa.

Tshenolo 13:11–17.
In those seven verses, the word “he” occurs eight times. Every time the word “he” is employed it refers back to the original “he,” “that spake as a dragon,” at the Sunday law in the United States. The image of the beast test that Adventists in the United States either passed or failed, when the United States spake as a dragon, is then repeated for Adventists in the other nations of the world, and also for God’s other children that are still in Babylon. We will continue our consideration of the United States in Revelation thirteen in the next article, but let me remind you of why we are considering this truth at this time.
في تلك الآيات السبع، تَرِدُ كلمة «هو» ثماني مرات. وفي كل مرة تُستعمل فيها كلمة «هو» فإنها تعود إلى «هو» الأصلي، أي الذي «كان يتكلّم كتنين»، عند سنِّ قانون الأحد في الولايات المتحدة. ثم إن امتحان صورة الوحش الذي اجتازه الأدڤنتست في الولايات المتحدة أو رسبوا فيه، حين تكلّمت الولايات المتحدة كتنين، يتكرّر بعد ذلك للأدڤنتست في سائر أمم العالم، وكذلك لأولاد الله الآخرين الذين لا يزالون في بابل. وسنواصل في المقالة التالية تأمّلنا في الولايات المتحدة في رؤيا الأصحاح الثالث عشر، ولكن دعوني أذكّركم بسبب تناولنا هذه الحقيقة في هذا الوقت.
The war that began with Lucifer in the third heaven typifies the war that begins in the first heaven at the Sunday law. The corrupted communications of the dragon are represented in both battles. The modern manifestation of Satan’s corrupted communications represents the hypnotic trance that planet earth succumbs to in the history after the soon coming Sunday law. That delusion is accomplished through the worldwide web’s control of what is called “the information super highway.” Those various avenues of the “information super highway” are social, economic, religious, so-called science, entertainment and more importantly the avenue of the news media.
Lo lutto chebbe principio con Lucifero nel terzo cielo prefigura lo lutto che principia nel primo cielo alla legge domenicale. Le comunicazioni corrotte del dragone sono rappresentate in ambedue le battaglie. La moderna manifestazione delle comunicazioni corrotte di Satana rappresenta la trance ipnotica alla quale il pianeta terra soccombe nella storia successiva alla legge domenicale di prossima venuta. Tale illusione si compie mediante il controllo, da parte della rete mondiale, di ciò che è chiamato “l’autostrada dell’informazione”. Le varie vie di quella “autostrada dell’informazione” sono sociali, economiche, religiose, della cosiddetta scienza, dell’intrattenimento e, più importantemente, la via dei mezzi d’informazione.
Once the truth is recognized that the “information super highway,” is the modern manifestation of the Satanic hypnotic communications, and also the subtle hypnosis that was employed by Satan in the battle of the angels in the third heaven, we can establish the “information super highway” is an element of the “last” image of the beast test for the world, that takes place after the Sunday law. It will then be easy to recognize that the “first” image of the beast test for the United States must possess the same corrupted Satanic communications as the last. The witness of Satan’s work of corrupting “the information super highway” from the Sunday law through to the close of probation provides the evidence of how the murder of the two horns of Republicanism and the remnant of true Protestantism on the earth beast was accomplished in 2020. It was accomplished by the “information super highway,” that John calls a “street” in Revelation eleven.
Kung ang katotohanan ay makilala na ang “information super highway” ay ang makabagong pagpapakita ng satanikong hipnotikong mga komunikasyon, at gayundin ng banayad na hipnosis na ginamit ni Satanas sa pakikipagdigma ng mga anghel sa ikatlong langit, maitatatag natin na ang “information super highway” ay isang sangkap ng “huling” pagsubok ng larawan ng halimaw para sa sanlibutan, na nagaganap pagkatapos ng batas ng Linggo. Kung magkagayon ay magiging madali nang makilala na ang “una”ng pagsubok ng larawan ng halimaw para sa Estados Unidos ay kinakailangang taglayin ang gayunding tiwaling satanikong mga komunikasyon gaya ng nasa huli. Ang patotoo ng gawain ni Satanas sa pagtiwali sa “information super highway” mula sa batas ng Linggo hanggang sa pagsasara ng panahon ng biyaya ay nagbibigay ng katibayan kung paano naisakatuparan noong 2020 ang pagpaslang sa dalawang sungay ng Republikanismo at sa nalabing bahagi ng tunay na Protestantismo sa halimaw na mula sa lupa. Ito ay naisakatuparan sa pamamagitan ng “information super highway,” na tinatawag ni Juan na isang “kalye” sa Apocalipsis onse.
The unsealing of these prophetic facts is a portion of what is required to be understood by those who intend to pass the test of the image of the beast, which was clearly seen by the prophetess, to be formed before probation closes and before the one hundred and forty-four thousand are sealed.
