“So in searching the field and digging for the precious jewels of truth, hidden treasures are discerned. Unexpectedly we find precious ore that is to be gathered and treasured. And the search is to be continued. Hitherto very much of the treasure found has lain near the surface, and was easily obtained. When the search is properly conducted every effort is made to keep a pure understanding and heart. When the mind is kept open and is constantly searching the field of revelation, we shall find rich deposits of truth.
“Así, al escudriñar el campo y cavar en busca de las preciosas joyas de la verdad, se disciernen tesoros escondidos. Inesperadamente hallamos precioso mineral que ha de recogerse y atesorarse. Y la búsqueda ha de continuarse. Hasta aquí, gran parte del tesoro hallado ha yacido cerca de la superficie y se ha obtenido fácilmente. Cuando la búsqueda se lleva a cabo debidamente, se hace todo esfuerzo por conservar puros el entendimiento y el corazón. Cuando la mente se mantiene abierta y está constantemente escudriñando el campo de la revelación, hallaremos ricos depósitos de verdad.
“Old truths will be revealed in new aspects, and truths will appear which have been overlooked in the search. Mighty truths have been buried beneath the sophistry of error, but they will be found by the diligent searcher. As he finds and opens the treasure house of the precious jewels of truth, it is no robbery; for all who appreciate these jewels may possess them, and then they too have a treasure house to open to others. He who imparts does not deprive himself of the treasure; for as he examines it that he may present it in such a way as to attract others, he finds new treasures. . . .

“Those who stand before the people as teachers of truth are to grapple with great themes. They are not to occupy precious time in talking of trivial subjects. Let them study the Word, and preach the Word. Let the Word be in their hands as a sharp, two-edged sword. Let it testify to past truths and show what is to be in the future.
«Қауымның алдында ақиқаттың ұстаздары ретінде тұратындар ұлы тақырыптармен айналысуға тиіс. Олар болмашы нәрселер туралы сөйлесіп, қымбат уақытты алмауға тиіс. Олар Сөзді зерттеп, Сөзді уағыздасын.

“Increased light will shine upon all the grand truths of prophecy, and they will be seen in freshness and brilliancy, because the bright beams of the Sun of Righteousness will illuminate the whole.” Manuscript Releases, volume 1, 37–40.
« Lumine grandissant éclairera toutes les grandes vérités de la prophétie, et elles seront vues avec fraîcheur et éclat, parce que les rayons resplendissants du Soleil de justice illumineront le tout. » Manuscript Releases, volume 1, 37–40.
I believe that I have now placed enough prophetic representations in place with the previous articles to have a good point of reference as we begin to proceed through the book of Revelation. If you are reading these articles online, I would hope you understand that the articles are in sequence by date. I understand that there are those following the articles that are familiar with most of what I am sharing, and I offer to them my apologies for all the redundancy. I have been trying to give enough biblical support for the truths we are handling, that someone new to the principles that Future for America employs will understand and stay engaged, though they might lack some of the familiarity with these concepts that many of us already know.
Mi kreda ce nun, per la antaŭaj artikoloj, mi jam starigis sufiĉe da profetaj prezentoj por havigi bonan referencpunkton dum ni komencas antaŭeniri tra la libro de Apokalipso. Se vi legas ĉi tiujn artikolojn rete, mi esperas, ke vi komprenas, ke la artikoloj estas sinsekvaj laŭ dato. Mi komprenas, ke inter tiuj, kiuj sekvas la artikolojn, estas personoj konantaj la plej grandan parton de tio, kion mi kundividas, kaj al ili mi prezentas mian pardonpeton pro la tuta ripetado. Mi klopodis doni sufiĉan biblian subtenon por la veroj, kiujn ni traktas, por ke iu nova pri la principoj, kiujn Future for America utiligas, komprenu kaj restu engaĝita, kvankam al li eble mankas iom el tiu konateco kun ĉi tiuj konceptoj, kiun multaj el ni jam havas.
There are some very powerful truths, which until recently I had never recognized that have been opened in the book of Revelation. I could simply set the truths out there in the public domain without trying first to build a premise of prophetic support before I share them, but the truths are so new and so serious that I have not been willing to share without some foundation upon which to place the truths, which I believe are represented as the unsealing of Revelation that happens just before probation closes.
Il y a dans le livre de l’Apocalypse certaines vérités d’une très grande puissance que, jusqu’à récemment, je n’avais jamais reconnues, et qui ont été ouvertes. Je pourrais simplement exposer ces vérités dans le domaine public sans chercher d’abord à établir une prémisse d’appui prophétique avant de les présenter ; mais ces vérités sont si nouvelles et si graves que je n’ai pas été disposé à les communiquer sans quelque fondement sur lequel les appuyer, et je crois qu’elles sont représentées comme le descellement de l’Apocalypse qui a lieu juste avant la clôture du temps de grâce.
And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. Revelation 22:10, 11.
Et il me dit : Ne scelle point les paroles de la prophétie de ce livre ; car le temps est proche. Que celui qui est injuste soit encore injuste ; que celui qui est souillé se souille encore ; et que celui qui est juste pratique encore la justice ; et que celui qui est saint se sanctifie encore. Apocalypse 22:10, 11.
Jesus set forth a principle about teaching the truth, that I believe applies here. The principle is set within the identification of the work of the Holy Spirit.
Jésus a énoncé un principe concernant l’enseignement de la vérité, qui, à mon sens, s’applique ici. Ce principe s’inscrit dans l’identification de l’œuvre du Saint-Esprit.
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. John 16:8–16.
Naye atakapokuja, atauhakikisha ulimwengu kuhusu dhambi, na kuhusu haki, na kuhusu hukumu: kuhusu dhambi, kwa sababu hawanisadiki mimi; kuhusu haki, kwa sababu naenda kwa Baba yangu, nanyi hamnioni tena; kuhusu hukumu, kwa sababu mkuu wa ulimwengu huu amehukumiwa. Bado ninayo mengi ya kuwaambia, lakini hamwezi kuyastahimili sasa. Lakini atakapokuja yeye, Roho wa kweli, atawaongoza awatie kwenye kweli yote; kwa maana hatanena kwa shauri lake mwenyewe; bali yote atakayoyasikia, hayo atayanena; naye atawaonyesha mambo yajayo. Yeye atanitukuza mimi; kwa kuwa atapokea yaliyo yangu, na atawaonyesha ninyi. Yohana 16:8–16.
When Christ stated, “I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now,” it upholds my conviction that there is now much to share, but there should first be a logical premise to build those truths upon. That being said, the previous verses identify the three angels’ messages as represented by the Holy Spirit reproving “the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.” Those three messages are the final warning message, so this passage identifying the work of the Holy Spirit is an important testimony, for it emphasizes that the message is progressively understood, and it is only understood by those who possess the oil of the Holy Spirit. John, in the book of Revelation represents that very truth when he identifies that he is a Sabbath worshipping Seventh-day Adventist at the end of the world.
ئەو کاتەی مەسیح فەرمووی: «هێشتا شتی زۆرم هەیە بۆ ئەوەی پێتان بڵێم، بەڵام ئێستا ناتوانن بەرگەی بکەن»، ئەوە باوەڕی من پشتڕاست دەکاتەوە کە ئێستا زۆر شت هەیە بۆ هاوبەشکردن، بەڵام پێویستە سەرەتا بنەمایەکی لۆژیکی هەبێت تاکو ئەو ڕاستییانەی لەسەر بنیات بنرێن. لەگەڵ ئەوەشدا، ئایەتەکانی پێشوو پەیامەکانی سێ فریشتەکە دیاری دەکەن وەک ئەوەی لەلایەن ڕوحی پیرۆزەوە نوێنەرایەتی دەکرێت کە «جیهان لە گوناه، و لە ڕاستودروستی، و لە حوکم» سەرزەنشت دەکات. ئەو سێ پەیامە، پەیامی کۆتایی ئاگادارکردنەوەن، بۆیە ئەم دەقەی کارەکەی ڕوحی پیرۆز دیاری دەکات شایەتییەکی گرنگە، چونکە جەخت لەوە دەکاتەوە کە پەیامەکە بە شێوەیەکی پێشکەوتوو تێدەگەدرێت، و تەنها ئەوانە تێی دەگەن کە زەیتی ڕوحی پیرۆزیان هەیە. یۆحەنا، لە پەڕتووکی ئاشکراکردندا، هەمان ئەو ڕاستییە نوێنەرایەتی دەکات کاتێک ناساندنی خۆی دەکات وەک ئەوەی لە کۆتایی جیهاندا ئادڤێنتیستی حەوت ڕۆژی پەرستەری شەممەیە.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet. Revelation 1:10.
J’étais en esprit au jour du Seigneur, et j’entendis derrière moi une voix forte, comme le son d’une trompette. Apocalypse 1:10.
Seventh-day Adventists at the end of the world who will understand the unsealed message in Revelation will do so because they are “in the Spirit.” In the context of the parable that we have been told “illustrates the experience of the Adventist people,” John is a wise virgin, for he has the oil of the Spirit. He represents the wise virgins at the end of the world, who hear a great voice “behind” them. The “voice from behind” him is the Alpha and Omega as identified in the very next verse, and the voice informs him to return to the old paths and walk therein.
শেষকালের সেই সেভেন্থ-ডে অ্যাডভেন্টিস্টরা, যারা প্রকাশিত বাক্যের উন্মোচিত বার্তাটি বুঝবে, তারা তা বুঝবে এই কারণে যে তারা “আত্মায়” থাকবে। সেই উপমার প্রেক্ষাপটে, যাকে আমাদের বলা হয়েছে “অ্যাডভেন্টিস্ট জনগণের অভিজ্ঞতাকে চিত্রিত করে,” যোহন একজন জ্ঞানী কুমারী, কারণ তার কাছে আত্মার তেল আছে। তিনি শেষকালের সেই জ্ঞানী কুমারীদের প্রতিনিধিত্ব করেন, যারা নিজেদের “পশ্চাতে” এক মহান স্বর শুনে। তার “পশ্চাতের স্বর” পরবর্তী পদেই আলফা ও ওমেগা হিসেবে চিহ্নিত হয়েছে, এবং সেই স্বর তাকে পুরাতন পথে ফিরে যেতে ও তদনুসারে চলতে নির্দেশ দেয়।
Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Jeremiah 6:16.
Ez így szól az Úr: Álljatok meg az utakon, és nézzetek szét, kérdezősködjetek a régi ösvények felől, melyik a jó út, és azon járjatok, akkor nyugalmat találtok lelketeknek. De ők ezt mondták: Nem járunk azon. Jeremiás 6:16.
The “rest” Jeremiah refers to is the outpouring of the Holy Spirit during the latter rain. In the next verse Jeremiah provides a second illustration of the foolish virgins who refuse to return to the foundations of Adventism (the old paths) and walk therein.
Le « repos » auquel Jérémie fait référence est l’effusion du Saint-Esprit durant la pluie de l’arrière-saison. Dans le verset suivant, Jérémie donne une seconde illustration des vierges folles qui refusent de revenir aux fondements de l’adventisme (les anciens sentiers) et d’y marcher.
Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. Jeremiah 6:17.
« J’ai aussi établi sur vous des sentinelles, disant : Soyez attentifs au son de la trompette. Mais ils ont dit : Nous n’y serons point attentifs. » Jérémie 6:17.
When John hears the voice behind him directing him to the old paths or the foundations of Adventism, the voice he hears is as a trumpet. That voice is conveyed through the “watchmen” that God set over Adventism. Father Miller was the watchman that blew the warning trumpet at the beginning of Adventism during the proclamation of the first angel announcing the opening of the judgment. But John specifically represents those who proclaim the third angel’s message announcing the close of the judgment. He represents those who return to the foundations that God erected through the work of Miller.

We have repeatedly shown through the years, (and it can be found in Habakkuk’s Tables), that the first angel’s message “fear God” is to convict of sin, and that the second angel’s message is where righteousness is manifested and the third identifies judgment. These are the three steps of the three angels and also the three steps of the work of the Holy Spirit. Those three steps are also represented by the three Hebrew letters that make up the Hebrew word that is translated as “truth.” In the passage from John sixteen, Jesus is speaking of the work of the Holy Spirit in guiding God’s people into “all truth,” while also showing them “things to come.” Yet Jesus states that He has “many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.”
Ua kaya na naipakita sa loob ng maraming taon, (at ito ay matatagpuan sa mga Talaan ni Habakkuk), na ang mensahe ng unang anghel na “matakot sa Dios” ay upang humatol ng kasalanan, at na ang mensahe ng ikalawang anghel ay yaon kung saan ang katuwiran ay nahahayag at ang ikatlo ay tumutukoy sa paghuhukom. Ito ang tatlong hakbang ng tatlong anghel at gayon din ang tatlong hakbang ng gawain ng Espiritu Santo. Ang tatlong hakbang na ito ay kinakatawanan din ng tatlong titik na Hebreo na bumubuo sa salitang Hebreo na isinasalin na “katotohanan.” Sa sipi mula sa Juan dieciséis, si Jesus ay nagsasalita tungkol sa gawain ng Espiritu Santo sa pag-akay sa bayan ng Dios tungo sa “buong katotohanan,” samantalang ipinakikita rin sa kanila ang “mga bagay na darating.” Gayunman, sinasabi ni Jesus na Siya ay may “maraming bagay na sasabihin sa inyo, datapuwa’t hindi ninyo mangatatanggap ngayon.”
I hope you have understood some of the significance of the Hebrew word translated as “truth.” For we have just began to apply that symbol to our study. In the first three verses of Revelation one the communication process between God and man is identified. It is identified even before the Revelation identifies the three-fold nature of the godhead. It finds a second witness in the last verses of Revelation and in so doing, based upon applying “line upon line” it produces more light.
J’espère que vous avez compris quelque peu la portée du mot hébreu traduit par « vérité ». Car nous venons à peine de commencer à appliquer ce symbole à notre étude. Dans les trois premiers versets d’Apocalypse 1, le processus de communication entre Dieu et l’homme est identifié. Il l’est même avant que l’Apocalypse n’identifie la nature triple de la Divinité. Il trouve un second témoignage dans les derniers versets de l’Apocalypse et, ce faisant, sur la base de l’application de « ligne sur ligne », il produit davantage de lumière.
Then when we add Genesis 1:1–2:3, we find a third witness and another prophetic line to lay upon the previous two lines at the beginning and ending of Revelation.
แล้วเมื่อเราเพิ่ม ปฐมกาล 1:1–2:3 เข้าไป เราก็จะพบพยานคนที่สามและแนวพยากรณ์อีกแนวหนึ่ง เพื่อนำมาวางทับลงบนสองแนวก่อนหน้านี้ ณ ตอนต้นและตอนปลายของพระธรรมวิวรณ์
Then we add the last promise in the Old Testament identifying the Elijah to come, and we have four prophetic lines.
فثم نضيف الوعد الأخير في العهد القديم الذي يعيّن إيليا الآتي، فتكون لدينا أربعة خطوط نبوية.
Then we add the first chapter of the New Testament and we have five lines to put together the ultimate message found in the Bible when applying the principle of Alpha and Omega to all the lines. If we would finish off the five lines we have already identified, by applying the principle across the board to those five lines, then we should expect to see the end of Matthew and the end of John testifying to the same information that all five of the “first and last” prophetic lines that we are considering.
Puis nous ajoutons le premier chapitre du Nouveau Testament, et nous obtenons cinq lignes à réunir afin de formuler le message ultime que l’on trouve dans la Bible en appliquant à toutes les lignes le principe de l’Alpha et de l’Oméga. Si nous menions à leur terme les cinq lignes que nous avons déjà identifiées, en appliquant ce principe de manière générale à ces cinq lignes, alors nous devrions nous attendre à voir la fin de Matthieu et la fin de Jean rendre témoignage à la même information que celle portée par les cinq lignes prophétiques du « premier et du dernier » que nous considérons.
The message that is being unsealed is established in the book of Revelation, so it is the reference point for the other lines, in agreement with Sister White informing us that “all the books of the Bible meet and end in Revelation.” The message of the first three verses of the book of Revelation identify the process God uses to transmit His word to John to write out and send to the churches. The first book of the New Testament, as already noted, sets forth the lineage of Jesus Christ and it starts with a very informative point.
Mesej ki pe ganny devwale i etabli dan liv Lapokalips, alor i pwen referans pour lezot laliny, an akor avek Ser White ki enform nou ki “tou liv Labib i zwenn e fini dan Lapokalips.” Mesej bann trwa premye verse liv Lapokalips i idantifye prosesis ki Bondye i servi pour transmet Son parol avek Zan pour ekrir e anvoy avek legliz. Premye liv Nouvo Testaman, parey in deza ganny note, i met devan lalinny Zezi Kri e i konmans avek en pwen tre enformatif.
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Matthew 1:1.
Buku ya molongo ya Yesu Klisto, mwana wa Davidi, mwana wa Abrahama. Matayo 1:1.
Jesus ended his direct interaction with the quibbling Jews by silencing them with the subject of “the son of David,” a subject that could have only been understood by the Jews if they had understood the biblical principle of beginning and ending. They didn’t, and most Adventists don’t. Anyone who wishes to argue against the principle of history repeating demonstrates that they do not understand that ancient Israel typifies modern Israel, and their unwillingness to believe that principle, is the identical unwillingness at the end of ancient Israel to understand the same principle. Jesus represented that principle in His final riddle to the Jews by directing them to the riddle of how David’s Lord, could also be David’s son?
Yesu akamaliza maingiliano yake ya moja kwa moja na Wayahudi wabishi kwa kuwanyamazisha kwa mada ya “mwana wa Daudi,” mada ambayo ingeweza kueleweka na Wayahudi hao tu kama wangeielewa kanuni ya kibiblia ya mwanzo na mwisho. Hawakuielewa, na Waadventista wengi hawaielewi. Yeyote atakayetaka kubishana dhidi ya kanuni ya historia kujirudia anaonyesha kwamba haelewi kuwa Israeli ya kale ni mfano wa Israeli ya kisasa, na kutokuwa tayari kwao kuamini kanuni hiyo ndiko kutokuwa tayari kulekule, mwishoni mwa Israeli ya kale, kuielewa kanuni iyo hiyo. Yesu aliwakilisha kanuni hiyo katika fumbo lake la mwisho kwa Wayahudi kwa kuwaelekeza kwenye fumbo la jinsi Bwana wa Daudi angeweza pia kuwa mwana wa Daudi?
John chapter one, identifies that in the beginning the Word was with God, and the Word is God and the Word created all things. This of course aligns with the other lines we are referring to. And if we then consider the last words in the gospel of John, we see Peter, after hearing Jesus describe how he would die, asking Jesus what would happen to the apostle John.
ಯೋಹಾನನ ಮೊದಲ ಅಧ್ಯಾಯವು, ಆದಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಕ್ಯವು ದೇವರ ಸಂಗಡ ಇತ್ತು, ವಾಕ್ಯವೇ ದೇವರು, ಮತ್ತು ವಾಕ್ಯವೇ ಸಮಸ್ತವನ್ನೂ ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಸಿತು ಎಂದು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಇದು ನಿಶ್ಚಯವಾಗಿಯೂ ನಾವು ಉಲ್ಲೇಖಿಸುತ್ತಿರುವ ಇತರ ಸಾಲುಗಳೊಂದಿಗೆ ಹೊಂದಿಕೆಯಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಮತ್ತು ನಂತರ ನಾವು ಯೋಹಾನನ ಸುವಾರ್ತೆಯ ಅಂತಿಮ ಮಾತುಗಳನ್ನು ಪರಿಗಣಿಸಿದರೆ, ಯೇಸು ತಾನು ಹೇಗೆ ಸಾಯುವನೆಂದು ವಿವರಿಸಿದುದನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದ ನಂತರ ಪೇತ್ರನು ಅಪೋಸ್ತಲ ಯೋಹಾನನ ವಿಷಯವಾಗಿ ಏನಾಗುವುದು ಎಂದು ಯೇಸುವನ್ನು ಕೇಳುವುದನ್ನು ನಾವು ಕಾಣುತ್ತೇವೆ.
Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do? Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true. And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. John 21:21–25.
Petru, văzându-l, I-a zis lui Isus: Doamne, dar cu acesta ce va fi? Isus i-a zis: Dacă voiesc ca el să rămână până voi veni Eu, ce-ți pasă ție? Tu urmează-Mă pe Mine. De aceea a ieșit printre frați vorba că ucenicul acela nu va muri. Totuși, Isus nu-i spusese că nu va muri, ci: Dacă voiesc ca el să rămână până voi veni Eu, ce-ți pasă ție? Acesta este ucenicul care mărturisește despre aceste lucruri și care a scris aceste lucruri; și știm că mărturia lui este adevărată. Mai sunt și multe alte lucruri pe care le-a făcut Isus, care, dacă s-ar fi scris cu de-amănuntul, socotesc că nici chiar lumea aceasta n-ar putea cuprinde cărțile care s-ar fi scris. Amin. Ioan 21:21–25.
Peter wanted to know how John would die, or even if John would die. The answer is repeated twice in the passage when Jesus stated it and then John restated, “If I will that he [John] tarry till I come, what is that to thee?” John did live to Jesus’ Second Coming.
پیٹر یہ جاننا چاہتا تھا کہ یوحنا کیسے مرے گا، یا آیا یوحنا مرے گا بھی یا نہیں۔ اس اقتباس میں جواب دو مرتبہ دہرایا گیا ہے: پہلے یسوع نے فرمایا، پھر یوحنا نے اسے دوبارہ بیان کیا: “If I will that he [John] tarry till I come, what is that to thee?” یوحنا یسوع کی دوسری آمد تک زندہ رہا۔
You can only see or hear that “truth” if you believe in the repetition of history, and also that the history that is to be repeated, does so at the end of the world. The end of the world is where John was when he wrote the book of Revelation. The last book in John’s gospel agrees with the other lines of beginning and ending for it places John in the history of the events leading to the Second Coming where he, representing those who proclaim the final warning message, sends that message to the churches.
आप उस “सत्य” को केवल तभी देख या सुन सकते हैं, यदि आप इतिहास की पुनरावृत्ति पर विश्वास करते हों, और यह भी कि जो इतिहास दोहराया जाना है, वह संसार के अंत में ही दोहराया जाता है। संसार का अंत वही स्थान है जहाँ यूहन्ना था जब उसने प्रकाशितवाक्य की पुस्तक लिखी। यूहन्ना के सुसमाचार की अंतिम पुस्तक आरम्भ और अंत की अन्य रेखाओं के साथ सहमत है, क्योंकि वह यूहन्ना को उन घटनाओं के इतिहास में स्थापित करती है जो द्वितीय आगमन की ओर ले जाती हैं, जहाँ वह, उन लोगों का प्रतिनिधित्व करते हुए जो अंतिम चेतावनी का संदेश घोषित करते हैं, उस संदेश को कलीसियाओं के पास भेजता है।
“In the days of the early Christians, Christ came the second time. His first advent was at Bethlehem, when He came as an infant. His second advent was at the Isle of Patmos, when He revealed Himself in glory to John the Revelator, who ‘fell at His feet as dead’ when he saw Him. But Christ strengthened him to endure the sight, and then gave him a message to write to the churches of Asia, the names of which are descriptive of the characteristics of every church.
«Au temps des premiers chrétiens, Christ vint une seconde fois. Sa première venue eut lieu à Bethléhem, lorsqu’Il vint comme un petit enfant. Sa seconde venue eut lieu dans l’île de Patmos, lorsqu’Il Se révéla dans la gloire à Jean le Révélateur, qui “tomba à Ses pieds comme mort” lorsqu’il Le vit. Mais Christ le fortifia pour qu’il pût supporter cette vision, puis lui donna un message à écrire aux Églises d’Asie, dont les noms décrivent les caractéristiques de chaque Église. »
“The light that Christ revealed to His servant the prophet is for us. In His revelation are given the three angels’ messages, and a description of the angel that was to come down from heaven with great power, lightening the earth with his glory. In it are warnings against the wickedness that would exist in the last days, and against the mark of the beast. We are not only to read and understand this message, but to proclaim it with no uncertain sound to the world. By presenting these things revealed to John, we shall be able to stir the people.” Manuscript Releases, volume 19, 41.

The end of the gospel of John identifies the communication process as in Revelation’s first three verses, by locating John prophetically in the history of the Second Coming. Thus, using Jesus’ first “second coming” (Patmos) to illustrate His last “second coming.” It connects perfectly with the other lines we are considering, for it represents John at the end of the world, on Patmos where he receives the Revelation of Jesus Christ. What about the end of the book of Matthew?
یوحنا کی انجیل کا اختتام مکاشفہ کی پہلی تین آیات میں مذکور ابلاغی عمل کی نشان دہی کرتا ہے، کیونکہ وہ یوحنا کو نبوتی طور پر آمدِ ثانی کی تاریخ میں واقع کرتا ہے۔ یوں، یسوع کی پہلی "آمدِ ثانی" (پطمس) کو اُس کی آخری "آمدِ ثانی" کی توضیح کے لیے استعمال کیا جاتا ہے۔ یہ ان دوسری سطروں کے ساتھ کامل طور پر مربوط ہے جن پر ہم غور کر رہے ہیں، کیونکہ یہ یوحنا کو دنیا کے خاتمہ پر، پطمس میں، اُس مقام پر پیش کرتا ہے جہاں وہ یسوع مسیح کا مکاشفہ حاصل کرتا ہے۔ متی کی کتاب کے اختتام کے بارے میں کیا کہا جائے؟
Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Matthew 28:16–20.
Puis les onze disciples s’en allèrent en Galilée, sur la montagne où Jésus leur avait donné rendez-vous. Et quand ils le virent, ils l’adorèrent ; mais quelques-uns eurent des doutes. Et Jésus s’approcha et leur parla, disant : Tout pouvoir m’a été donné dans le ciel et sur la terre. Allez donc, et faites de toutes les nations des disciples, les baptisant au nom du Père, et du Fils, et du Saint-Esprit ; leur enseignant à observer toutes les choses que je vous ai commandées ; et voici, je suis avec vous tous les jours, jusqu’à la fin du monde. Amen. Matthieu 28:16–20.
In the passage all power is given to Jesus, and this would of course be His creative power. And then He gives a commandment to baptize in the name of the Father, Son and also the Holy Spirit that moved upon the water in Genesis one, and the seven spirits that are before the throne of God. This passage identifies that Christians are to recognize the three persons of the heavenly trio as three distinct entities. The end of Matthew adds to the lines as the other six do.
Dans ce passage, toute puissance est donnée à Jésus, et il s’agirait naturellement de sa puissance créatrice. Puis il donne le commandement de baptiser au nom du Père, du Fils et aussi du Saint-Esprit qui se mouvait au-dessus des eaux dans Genèse un, ainsi que des sept esprits qui sont devant le trône de Dieu. Ce passage établit que les chrétiens doivent reconnaître les trois personnes du trio céleste comme trois entités distinctes. La fin de Matthieu ajoute à ces lignes comme le font les six autres.
“Christ has made baptism the sign of entrance to His spiritual kingdom. He has made this a positive condition with which all must comply who wish to be acknowledged as under the authority of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Before man can find a home in the church, before passing the threshold of God’s spiritual kingdom, he is to receive the impress of the divine name, ‘The Lord our righteousness.’ Jeremiah 23:6.
«Քրիստոսը մկրտությունը հաստատել է որպես Իր հոգևոր թագավորություն մուտք գործելու նշան։ Նա այն դրել է որպես պարտադիր պայման, որին պետք է ենթարկվեն բոլոր նրանք, ովքեր ցանկանում են ճանաչվել որպես Հոր, Որդու և Սուրբ Հոգու իշխանության ներքո եղողներ։ Նախքան մարդը եկեղեցում տուն գտնի, նախքան Աստծո հոգևոր թագավորության շեմը անցնի, նա պետք է ընդունի աստվածային անվան դրոշմը՝ «Տերը՝ մեր արդարությունը»։ Երեմիա 23:6։»
“Baptism is a most solemn renunciation of the world. Those who are baptized in the threefold name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, at the very entrance of their Christian life declare publicly that they have forsaken the service of Satan, and have become members of the royal family, children of the heavenly King. They have obeyed the command, ‘Come out from among them, and be ye separate, … and touch not the unclean thing.’ And to them is fulfilled the promise, ‘I will receive you, and will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be My sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.’ 2 Corinthians 6:17, 18.
“Le baptême est une renonciation des plus solennelles au monde. Ceux qui sont baptisés au nom trinitaire du Père, du Fils et du Saint-Esprit déclarent publiquement, dès l’entrée même de leur vie chrétienne, qu’ils ont abandonné le service de Satan et qu’ils sont devenus membres de la famille royale, enfants du Roi céleste. Ils ont obéi à l’ordre : « Sortez du milieu d’eux, et séparez-vous, … et ne touchez pas à ce qui est impur. » Et pour eux s’accomplit la promesse : « Je vous accueillerai, et je serai pour vous un Père, et vous serez pour moi des fils et des filles, dit le Seigneur tout-puissant. » 2 Corinthiens 6:17, 18.
“As Christians submit to the solemn rite of baptism, He registers the vow that they make to be true to Him. This vow is their oath of allegiance. They are baptized in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Thus they are united with the three great powers of heaven. They pledge themselves to renounce the world and to observe the laws of the kingdom of God. Henceforth they are to walk in newness of life. No longer are they to follow the traditions of men. No longer are they to follow dishonest methods. They are to obey the statutes of the kingdom of heaven. They are to seek God’s honor. If they will be true to their vow, they will be furnished with grace and power that will enable them to fulfill all righteousness. ‘As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.’” Evangelism, 307.

Jesus illustrates the end by the beginning in His Word, for He is the Word, and He is the Alpha and Omega.
Jésus illustre la fin par le commencement dans sa Parole, car il est la Parole, et il est l’Alpha et l’Oméga.
Bringing these seven lines together builds a very detailed picture of the communication process between God and man, with many other critical and important truths set forth and established by the other “lines” witnesses. Seven “lines” of prophecy representing the Alpha and Omega. But what about the book of Malachi?
Le fait de réunir ces sept lignes compose un tableau très détaillé du processus de communication entre Dieu et l’homme, tandis que de nombreuses autres vérités essentielles et importantes sont exposées et établies par les autres témoins des « lignes ». Sept « lignes » de prophétie représentant l’Alpha et l’Oméga. Mais qu’en est-il du livre de Malachie ?
Malachi’s book is a scathing rebuke against the unfaithful priests in Adventism. It opens with the identification of two classes of worshippers in Adventism at the end of the world.
Le livre de Malachie constitue une réprimande cinglante contre les prêtres infidèles dans l’adventisme. Il s’ouvre sur l’identification de deux catégories d’adorateurs dans l’adventisme à la fin du monde.
The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi. I have loved you, saith the Lord. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob. Malachi 1:1, 2.
Wɔde Awurade asɛm adesoa no brɛɛ Israel denam Malaki so. “Madɔ mo,” sɛnea Awurade seɛ ni. Nanso mo ka sɛ, “Ɛkwan bɛn so na wodɔɔ yɛn?” “Na Esau nnyɛ Yakob nua anaa?” sɛnea Awurade seɛ ni. “Nanso medɔɔ Yakob.” Malaki 1:1, 2.
Malachi further informs us that the two classes of worshippers at the end of the world are two classes of priests.
اما ملاکی مزید ہمیں آگاہ کرتا ہے کہ دنیا کے آخر میں عبادت گزاروں کی دو جماعتیں دراصل کاہنوں کی دو جماعتیں ہیں۔
And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. Malachi 2:1, 2.
Et maintenant, ô vous, prêtres, ce commandement est pour vous. Si vous n’écoutez pas, et si vous ne prenez pas à cœur de donner gloire à mon nom, dit l’Éternel des armées, j’enverrai sur vous la malédiction, et je maudirai vos bénédictions ; oui, je les ai déjà maudites, parce que vous ne le prenez pas à cœur. Malachie 2:1, 2.
The beginning of Malachi is typifying the Laodicean and Philadelphian message with two classes of priests. The priests are commanded to “hear.” John represents the priests that do hear, and a priest represents God’s covenant chosen people. They are already cursed and will be cursed again if they do not “hear” and “they do not” or “will not” “lay it to heart.”
मलाकी की आरम्भिक वाणी दो प्रकार के याजकों के माध्यम से लौदीकिया और फिलादेल्फिया के सन्देश का पूर्वरूप प्रस्तुत करती है। याजकों को “सुनने” की आज्ञा दी गई है। यूहन्ना उन याजकों का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है जो सचमुच सुनते हैं, और याजक परमेश्वर की वाचा से चुनी हुई प्रजा का द्योतक है। वे पहले ही शापित हो चुके हैं, और यदि वे “न सुनें” तथा “इस बात को मन में न रखें,” बल्कि “न रखें” या “न रखना चाहें,” तो उन पर फिर शाप आएगा।
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 1 Peter 2:5–10.
Nani pia, kama mawe yaliyo hai, mnajengwa mwe nyumba ya kiroho, ukuhani mtakatifu, mpate kutoa dhabihu za kiroho, zinazokubalika kwa Mungu kwa njia ya Yesu Kristo. Kwa maana imeandikwa katika Maandiko, Tazama, naweka katika Sayuni jiwe kuu la pembeni, teule, lenye thamani; naye amwaminiye hatatahayarika kamwe. Basi, kwenu ninyi mnaoamini, yeye ni wa thamani; bali kwa hao wasiotii, jiwe walilolikataa waashi, ndilo lililofanywa kuwa kichwa cha pembeni, na jiwe la kujikwaza, na mwamba wa kuangusha; yaani, kwa hao wajikwaao katika neno kwa kuwa hawatii; nao waliwekwa kwa ajili ya hayo. Bali ninyi ni mzao mteule, ukuhani wa kifalme, taifa takatifu, watu wa milki ya Mungu; mpate kuzitangaza sifa zake yeye aliyewaita mtoke gizani mkaingie katika nuru yake ya ajabu; ninyi ambao zamani hamkuwa taifa, bali sasa mmekuwa taifa la Mungu; ambao hamkupata rehema, bali sasa mmepata rehema. 1 Petro 2:5–10.
The priests are God’s chosen people who are tested by the “corner stone” in the foundation of the temple. The corner stone is what all the other foundation stones are aligned with, and also it is the stone that bears the weight of the entire temple. Miller’s corner stone was the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six. The corner stone or the stone that the builders rejected is a true story of the building of the temple, which is described very specifically in the writings of the Spirit of Prophecy. One point about the first stone that was rejected is that it was set aside after it was rejected, and from that point on the builders of the temple would regularly trip over the cornerstone, that had been set aside within their work area. It was a stone of stumbling.
Les prêtres sont le peuple choisi de Dieu, éprouvé par la « pierre angulaire » dans le fondement du temple. La pierre angulaire est celle sur laquelle toutes les autres pierres du fondement sont alignées, et c’est aussi la pierre qui porte le poids de tout le temple. La pierre angulaire de Miller était les « sept temps » de Lévitique vingt-six. La pierre angulaire, ou la pierre que les bâtisseurs ont rejetée, constitue un récit véridique de l’édification du temple, décrit de manière très précise dans les écrits de l’Esprit de prophétie. Un point concernant la première pierre qui fut rejetée est qu’elle fut mise de côté après avoir été rejetée, et dès lors les bâtisseurs du temple trébuchaient régulièrement sur la pierre angulaire, qui avait été écartée au milieu de leur aire de travail. Elle était une pierre d’achoppement.
In Malachi God informs the wicked priests, also known as the foolish Laodicean virgins that he is going to and already has “cursed” them. He curses them for they will not “hear” and “lay” the Elijah message to their hearts. The Elijah message turns the fathers’ hearts to the children and the children’s hearts to the fathers. Turning their hearts represents hearing the Elijah message of fathers and children, which is the principle of first and last. Hearing the message of the first and last is not enough, it must be laid upon the heart. To accept the message of Elijah is to lay it to your heart. If a priest will not hear that principle, he will be cursed.
ក្នុងព្រះគម្ពីរម៉ាឡាគី ព្រះជាម្ចាស់ទ្រង់ជូនដំណឹងដល់ពួកសង្ឃអាក្រក់ ដែលត្រូវបានស្គាល់ផងដែរថាជាព្រហ្មចារីលាវដីសេដ៏ល្ងង់ ថាទ្រង់នឹង ហើយក៏បាន «បណ្ដាសា» ពួកគេរួចហើយ។ ទ្រង់បណ្ដាសាពួកគេ ពីព្រោះពួកគេមិនព្រម «ស្តាប់» ហើយ «ដាក់» សាររបស់អេលីយ៉ាទុកក្នុងចិត្តរបស់ពួកគេ។ សាររបស់អេលីយ៉ាបង្វែរចិត្តរបស់ពួកឪពុកទៅកាន់កូនៗ និងចិត្តរបស់កូនៗទៅកាន់ពួកឪពុក។ ការបង្វែរចិត្តរបស់ពួកគេ តំណាងឲ្យការស្តាប់សាររបស់អេលីយ៉ាអំពីពួកឪពុក និងកូនៗ ដែលជាគោលការណ៍នៃអ្នកដំបូង និងអ្នកចុងក្រោយ។ ការស្តាប់សារអំពីអ្នកដំបូង និងអ្នកចុងក្រោយ មិនទាន់គ្រប់គ្រាន់ទេ តែត្រូវដាក់វាលើចិត្តផងដែរ។ ការទទួលយកសាររបស់អេលីយ៉ា គឺជាការដាក់វាទុកក្នុងចិត្តរបស់អ្នក។ ប្រសិនបើសង្ឃម្នាក់មិនព្រមស្តាប់គោលការណ៍នោះទេ គាត់នឹងត្រូវបណ្ដាសា។
They brought the curse upon themselves when in 1863 they began the process of rejecting the very first foundational truth Miller discovered and have done nothing but continue that rejection to this very day. But even though the progressive curse began in 1863, (for they are already cursed), the curse that is in the future tense, takes place when they are spewed out of the mouth of the Lord at the Sunday law. The beginning of Malachi illustrates the end, for the end represents the last warning given to the wise and foolish priests. The wise and foolish in Malachi are represented as Esau and Jacob. The elder brother representing the covenant through the birthright of being the first born, contrasted with a younger brother. The elder being the first and the younger being the last.
उन्होंने 1863 में उस प्रक्रिया का आरम्भ करके अपने ऊपर शाप ले लिया, जिसके द्वारा उन्होंने उस पहली मूलभूत सच्चाई को अस्वीकार करना शुरू किया जिसे मिलर ने खोजा था; और तब से लेकर आज तक वे उसी अस्वीकृति को निरन्तर आगे बढ़ाते ही रहे हैं। परन्तु यद्यपि प्रगतिशील शाप 1863 में आरम्भ हुआ, (क्योंकि वे पहले से ही शापित हैं), फिर भी वह शाप जो भविष्यकालिक अर्थ में है, उस समय घटित होता है जब रविवार के विधान पर उन्हें प्रभु के मुख से उगल दिया जाता है। मलाकी का आरम्भ अन्त को चित्रित करता है, क्योंकि अन्त उस अंतिम चेतावनी का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है जो बुद्धिमान और मूर्ख याजकों को दी जाती है। मलाकी में बुद्धिमान और मूर्ख, एसाव और याकूब के रूप में प्रस्तुत किए गए हैं। बड़ा भाई पहलौठे होने के जन्मसिद्ध अधिकार के द्वारा वाचा का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है, और उसके विपरीत एक छोटा भाई है। बड़ा पहला होने का, और छोटा अन्तिम होने का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है।
In Malachi both Esau and Jacob are Laodicean Adventists but the last eventually heard the “voice” of the Lord, repented and had his named changed to Israel. The elder, the first did not hear. Jacob heard the voice of the Lord the night he dreamed and saw angels ascending and descending upon the ladder, representing Christ. Jacob represents Laodicean Adventists at the end of the world who are converted from Laodiceans unto Philadelphians when they experience the first three verses of Revelation one, as illustrated by John and Jacob’s dream of the ladder of ascending and descending angels. That experience marks the beginning of Jacob’s conversion into Israel, the Philadelphian. The ending of Jacob’s conversion story is when he wrestles with Christ at Penuel. Thus Jacob’s birthright story begins in the first three verses of Revelation chapter one when the unsealing of the final warning message is taking place and it ends in the time of the seven last plagues, during the time of trouble.
В книгата на Малахия и Исав, и Яков са лаодикийски адвентисти, но последният в крайна сметка чу „гласа“ на Господа, покая се и името му бе променено на Израил. По-големият, първият, не чу. Яков чу гласа на Господа в нощта, когато сънува и видя ангели, възлизащи и слизащи по стълбата, представляваща Христос. Яков представлява лаодикийските адвентисти в края на света, които се обръщат от лаодикийци в филаделфийци, когато преживеят първите три стиха от първа глава на Откровение, както е онагледено от Йоан и от съня на Яков за стълбата с възлизащите и слизащите ангели. Това преживяване бележи началото на обръщането на Яков в Израил, филаделфиеца. Завършекът на историята за обръщането на Яков е, когато той се бори с Христос при Фануил. Следователно историята за първородството на Яков започва в първите три стиха на първа глава от Откровение, когато се извършва разпечатването на последната предупредителна вест, и завършва във времето на седемте последни язви, през времето на скръбта.
All four sets of beginnings and endings, “line upon line” give testimony to the message of the Revelation of Jesus Christ. The question is whether the foolish priests will hear or not hear.
Toate cele patru serii de începuturi și sfârșituri, „linie peste linie”, dau mărturie despre mesajul Descoperirii lui Isus Hristos. Întrebarea este dacă preoții neînțelepți vor auzi sau nu vor auzi.
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Revelation 1:3.
Bienheureux celui qui lit, et ceux qui entendent les paroles de cette prophétie, et qui gardent les choses qui y sont écrites; car le temps est proche. Apocalypse 1:3.
The wise priests who hear what the Spirit says to the churches, hear the message of Elijah. Miller was Elijah, and some heard, but others refused.
그 영께서 교회들에게 하시는 말씀을 듣는 지혜로운 제사장들은 엘리야의 메시지를 듣는다. 밀러는 엘리야였고, 어떤 이들은 들었으나 다른 이들은 거부하였다.
“Thousands were led to embrace the truth preached by William Miller, and servants of God were raised up in the spirit and power of Elijah to proclaim the message. Like John, the forerunner of Jesus, those who preached this solemn message felt compelled to lay the ax at the root of the tree, and call upon men to bring forth fruits meet for repentance. Their testimony was calculated to arouse and powerfully affect the churches and manifest their real character. And as the solemn warning to flee from the wrath to come was sounded, many who were united with the churches received the healing message; they saw their backslidings, and with bitter tears of repentance and deep agony of soul, humbled themselves before God. And as the Spirit of God rested upon them, they helped to sound the cry, ‘Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is come.’” Early Writings, 233.
« Des milliers de personnes furent amenées à embrasser la vérité prêchée par William Miller, et des serviteurs de Dieu furent suscités dans l’esprit et la puissance d’Élie pour proclamer le message. Comme Jean, le précurseur de Jésus, ceux qui prêchaient ce solennel message se sentaient contraints de mettre la cognée à la racine de l’arbre et d’appeler les hommes à produire des fruits dignes de la repentance. Leur témoignage était de nature à réveiller les églises et à les affecter puissamment, et à manifester leur véritable caractère. Et tandis que retentissait le solennel avertissement de fuir la colère à venir, beaucoup de ceux qui étaient unis aux églises reçurent le message de guérison ; ils virent leurs infidélités, et, avec les larmes amères de la repentance et une profonde angoisse de l’âme, ils s’humilièrent devant Dieu. Et comme l’Esprit de Dieu reposait sur eux, ils contribuèrent à faire retentir le cri : “Craignez Dieu, et donnez-lui gloire ; car l’heure de son jugement est venue.” » Early Writings, 233.
Miller was typified by both Elijah and John the Baptist, for John the Baptist prepared the way for Christ’s first coming and Miller prepared the way for Christ to come to the Most Holy Place of the heavenly sanctuary on October 22, 1844. Malachi directly identifies John and Miller’s work.
Miller a été préfiguré à la fois par Élie et par Jean-Baptiste, car Jean-Baptiste a préparé la voie pour la première venue du Christ, et Miller a préparé la voie pour que le Christ entre dans le lieu très saint du sanctuaire céleste le 22 octobre 1844. Malachie identifie directement l’œuvre de Jean et celle de Miller.
Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts. For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Malachi 3:1–6.
देख, मैं अपना दूत भेजूँगा, और वह मेरे आगे मार्ग तैयार करेगा; और प्रभु, जिसे तुम ढूँढ़ते हो, अचानक अपने मन्दिर में आ जाएगा; अर्थात् वाचा का दूत, जिससे तुम प्रसन्न होते हो; देखो, वह आएगा, सेनाओं का यहोवा कहता है। परन्तु उसके आने के दिन को कौन सह सकेगा? और जब वह प्रकट होगा तब कौन ठहर सकेगा? क्योंकि वह कसौटी की आग के समान और धोबियों के साबुन के समान है। वह चाँदी को गलानेवाले और शुद्ध करनेवाले के समान बैठ जाएगा; और वह लेवी की सन्तानों को शुद्ध करेगा, और उन्हें सोने और चाँदी के समान निर्मल करेगा, ताकि वे यहोवा के लिये धर्म के साथ भेंट चढ़ाएँ। तब यहूदा और यरूशलेम की भेंट यहोवा को भली लगेगी, जैसे प्राचीन दिनों में और जैसे पूर्वकाल के वर्षों में लगती थी। और मैं न्याय करने के लिये तुम्हारे निकट आऊँगा; और मैं टोना करनेवालों, व्यभिचारियों, झूठी शपथ खानेवालों, मजदूर की मजदूरी दबानेवालों, विधवा और अनाथ पर अन्धेर करनेवालों, और परदेशी का हक मारनेवालों के विरुद्ध, और मेरे भय को न माननेवालों के विरुद्ध शीघ्र साक्षी ठहरूँगा, सेनाओं का यहोवा कहता है। क्योंकि मैं यहोवा हूँ, मैं बदलता नहीं; इस कारण, हे याकूब की सन्तान, तुम नष्ट नहीं हुए। मलाकी 3:1–6।
As the ‘watchman’ for his history, Miller’s work represented raising the foundations of the temple. His work in the beginning must illustrate a work that represents the finishing of the temple. That final work requires another watchman to give the trumpet a certain sound. Miller and the message of the first angel announced the opening of judgment, and the watchman who Miller typifies at the end of Adventism will announce the close of judgment.
I ko “watchman” no nona ka mōʻaukala, ua hōʻike ka hana a Miller i ka hoʻāla ʻana i nā kumu o ka luakini. ʻO kāna hana i ka hoʻomaka ʻana he pono e hōʻike i kekahi hana e kū ana no ka hoʻopau ʻia ʻana o ka luakini. Koi ʻia kēlā hana hope e kekahi watchman hou e hāʻawi i ka pū i kekahi kani maopopo. Ua hoʻolaha ʻo Miller a me ka ʻōlelo a ka ʻānela mua i ka wehe ʻia ʻana o ka hoʻokolokolo ʻana, a ʻo ka watchman a Miller e hōʻailona ai ma ka hopena o ka Adventism, nāna nō e hoʻolaha i ka pani ʻia ʻana o ka hoʻokolokolo ʻana.
In Malachi the Lord promises to bring judgment “against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me.” Those that are being identified here are those who “fear not” “the Lord of hosts.” William Miller is the messenger of the first angel which calls for men to “fear God.” Rejecting the foundations is to reject the fear of God.
Nei Malachia il Signore promette di portare il giudizio “contro gli incantatori, contro gli adulteri, contro quelli che giurano il falso, contro quelli che frodano l’operaio nel suo salario, la vedova e l’orfano, che fanno torto allo straniero nei suoi diritti e non temono me”. Qui vengono identificati coloro che “non temono” “il Signore degli eserciti”. Guglielmo Miller è il messaggero del primo angelo, il quale chiama gli uomini a “temere Dio”. Rigettare i fondamenti significa rigettare il timore di Dio.
For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts. Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:1–6.
En effet, voici, le jour vient, ardent comme une fournaise ; et tous les orgueilleux, oui, et tous ceux qui commettent l’iniquité, seront comme du chaume ; et le jour qui vient les embrasera, dit l’Éternel des armées, de sorte qu’il ne leur laissera ni racine ni rameau. Mais pour vous qui craignez mon nom, se lèvera le Soleil de justice, et la guérison sera sous ses ailes ; et vous sortirez, et vous croîtrez comme les veaux d’une étable. Et vous foulerez les méchants ; car ils seront comme de la cendre sous la plante de vos pieds au jour où j’accomplirai cela, dit l’Éternel des armées. Souvenez-vous de la loi de Moïse, mon serviteur, à qui j’ai prescrit en Horeb, pour tout Israël, des statuts et des ordonnances. Voici, je vous enverrai Élie, le prophète, avant que vienne le grand et redoutable jour de l’Éternel. Et il ramènera le cœur des pères vers les enfants, et le cœur des enfants vers leurs pères, de peur que je ne vienne frapper le pays d’interdit. Malachie 4:1–6.

When we remove the prophetic beginnings or endings that are referenced more than once, it equals eight prophetic lines that are to be brought together and placed upon the first three verses of Revelation. What about the end of Genesis?
عندما نزيل البدايات أو النهايات النبوية التي أُشير إليها أكثر من مرة، يكون الناتج ثمانيةَ خطوطٍ نبوية ينبغي جمعها ووضعها على الآيات الثلاث الأولى من سفر الرؤيا. فماذا عن نهاية سفر التكوين؟
Genesis chapter fifty ends with the death of Joseph.
Le chapitre cinquante de la Genèse s’achève par la mort de Joseph.
So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt. Genesis 50:26.
Et Joseph mourut, âgé de cent dix ans ; et on l’embauma, et on le mit dans un cercueil en Égypte. Genèse 50:26.
Chapter forty-eight identifies the death of Jacob. The death of Jacob being first in chapter forty-eight leading to the death of Joseph in chapter fifty’s closing verses place the signature of the Alpha and Omega upon the last three chapters of Genesis as the ending of the book of Genesis.
Le chapitre quarante-huit signale la mort de Jacob. Le fait que la mort de Jacob apparaisse d’abord au chapitre quarante-huit, conduisant à la mort de Joseph dans les versets conclusifs du chapitre cinquante, appose la signature de l’Alpha et de l’Oméga sur les trois derniers chapitres de la Genèse, comme conclusion du livre de la Genèse.
Those two deaths are used as symbols of the beginning and ending of Israel’s captivity in Egypt. In the beginning, Jacob’s body is taken back to be buried with his fathers, and when Moses comes out of Egypt, he brings Joseph’s body to be buried in the burial place of his fathers.
Ces deux morts servent de symboles du commencement et de la fin de la captivité d’Israël en Égypte. Au commencement, le corps de Jacob est ramené pour être enseveli avec ses pères, et lorsque Moïse sort d’Égypte, il emporte le corps de Joseph pour l’ensevelir dans le lieu de sépulture de ses pères.
And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you. Exodus 13:19.
Muusaas immoo lafee Yooseef ofii isaa wajjin fudhate; inni, “Waaqayyo dhugumaan isin ni daawwata; isin immoo as irraa lafee koo ofii keessan wajjin ol ni baattu” jedhee ijoollee Israaʼel kakuu cimaadhaan kakachiisee ture. Seera Baʼuu 13:19.
The ending of Genesis is the last three chapters. In chapter forty-eight Jacob (Israel) pronounces blessings upon his twelve sons that are directly identified as prophecies of what happens to those twelve tribes in the “last days” of the investigative judgment.
دەریی کۆتایی سەفری پەیدابوون سێ بەشی دواهەمە. لە بەشی چل و هەشتدا یاقوب (ئیسرائیل) بەرەکەت بەسەر دوازدە کوڕەکەی دەخوێنێتەوە کە بە ڕاستەوخۆ وەک پێشبینییەکان ناسێنراون بۆ ئەوەی چی ڕوودەدات بەو دوازدە هۆزە لە «ڕۆژانی دوا»ی دادوەریی لێکۆڵینەوەدا.
And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. Genesis 49:1, 2.
Ndipo Yakobo akaitana vanakomana vake, akati, “Unganai, kuti ndikuudzei zvichakuwirai pamazuva okupedzisira. Unganai, munzwe, imi vanakomana vaYakobo; teererai Isiraeri, baba venyu.” Genesisi 49:1, 2
In the “last days” of the investigative judgment the Lord promises to gather his twelve sons, who are represented as the one hundred and forty-four thousand in the book of Revelation. These are they who John represents in the book of Revelation. They are gathered by a call from Jacob, a call from their beginning history that they are told to “hear,” and “hearken” unto. In the last days, those typified by Jacob’s sons “hear” a message and “hearken” or as John says “keep” those things that are written therein. It’s a call from the father to the children, it is the Elijah message. Those called are called the “son[‘s] of Jacob,” and are also to “hearken unto Israel” their father.
ਸਮੀਖਿਆਤਮਕ ਨਿਆਂ ਦੇ “ਆਖਰੀ ਦਿਨਾਂ” ਵਿੱਚ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਇਹ ਵਾਅਦਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਬਾਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਪੁੱਤਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਇਕੱਠਾ ਕਰੇਗਾ, ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਸ਼ ਦੀ ਪੁਸਤਕ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ ਲੱਖ ਚੁਆਲੀਹ ਹਜ਼ਾਰ ਦੇ ਰੂਪ ਵਿੱਚ ਦਰਸਾਇਆ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ। ਇਹ ਉਹੀ ਹਨ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਸ਼ ਦੀ ਪੁਸਤਕ ਵਿੱਚ ਦਰਸਾਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਉਹ ਯਾਕੂਬ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਦਿੱਤੇ ਗਏ ਇੱਕ ਬੁਲਾਵੇ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਇਕੱਠੇ ਕੀਤੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਹਨ—ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦੇ ਆਰੰਭਕ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਆਉਂਦੇ ਬੁਲਾਵੇ ਦੁਆਰਾ—ਜਿਸ ਬਾਰੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ “ਸੁਣਨ” ਅਤੇ “ਧਿਆਨ ਨਾਲ ਕਾਨ ਧਰਨ” ਲਈ ਕਿਹਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਆਖਰੀ ਦਿਨਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ, ਉਹ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਦਾ ਪ੍ਰਤੀਕ ਯਾਕੂਬ ਦੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਹਨ, ਇੱਕ ਸੰਦੇਸ਼ “ਸੁਣਦੇ” ਹਨ ਅਤੇ “ਧਿਆਨ ਨਾਲ ਕਾਨ ਧਰਦੇ” ਹਨ, ਜਾਂ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਯੂਹੰਨਾ ਕਹਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਲਿਖੀਆਂ ਗੱਲਾਂ ਨੂੰ “ਮੰਨਦੇ” ਹਨ। ਇਹ ਪਿਤਾ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਬੱਚਿਆਂ ਲਈ ਇੱਕ ਬੁਲਾਹਟ ਹੈ; ਇਹ ਇਲਿਆਹ ਦਾ ਸੰਦੇਸ਼ ਹੈ। ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਬੁਲਾਇਆ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਹ “ਯਾਕੂਬ ਦੇ ਪੁੱਤਰ” ਕਹਾਏ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਹਨ, ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਪਿਤਾ ਇਸਰਾਏਲ ਦੀ ਵੀ “ਆਗਿਆ ਸੁਣਨੀ” ਹੈ।
Esau and Jacob in Malachi represent the wise and foolish virgins. The call is from their father Jacob and their father Israel, identifying that when the last call is made everyone is a Laodicean Adventist and the choice is placed into their own hands whether to be a son of Jacob the deceiver or Israel the overcomer. What allows them to make a choice is the creative power within the message. If the message is read, heard and kept, then through the identical creative power that brought all things into existence they will be changed unto a son of Israel. To refuse to hear, is to retain the experience of Jacob, the deceiver.
Malaaki keessatti Esaawuu fi Yaaqoobiin dubbataman, durboota ogeeyyii fi durboota gowwoota agarsiisu. Waamichi kun abbaa isaanii Yaaqoobii fi abbaa isaanii Israa’el irraa dhufa; kunis yeroo waamichi dhumaa kennamutti namni hundinuu Adveentistii Laa’oodiiqeyaa ta’uu isaa fi filannoon akka ilma Yaaqoob gowwoomsaa ta’anii turanitti yookaan akka ilma Israa’el mo’ataa ta’uutti harka isaanii keessa kaa’amuu isaa mul’isa.

Dhaga’uuf diduun ammoo muuxannoo Yaaqoob, gowwoomsaa sana, akka qabaatanii hafan godha.
The gathering call by Jacob, which is also the gathering call of the message that is unsealed in Revelation is an important symbol to understand. The “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six teaches that there is no gathering, unless there is previously a scattering. The one hundred and forty-four thousand are those who were scattered in advance of the calling. This truth is repeatedly identified in the Bible.
Wobisa a Yakobo, oyo ezali mpe wobisa ya bosangisi ya nsango oyo efungwami na Emoniseli, ezali elembo moko ya ntina mingi mpo na kososola. “Mbala nsambo” ya Baebele mokapo ya ntuku mibale na motoba eteyaka ete bosangisi ezali te, soki liboso bopanzani esalemi te. Bato nkóto nkama moko na ntuku minei na minei bazali baoyo bapanzamaki liboso ya kobengama. Solo oyo emonisamaka mbala na mbala na Biblia.
Hear the word of the Lord, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock. Jeremiah 31:10.
Ecoutons la parole du Seigneur, ô nations, et annonçons-la dans les îles lointaines, et disons : Celui qui a dispersé Israël le rassemblera, et le gardera, comme un berger garde son troupeau. Jérémie 31:10.
The covenant that is renewed with the one hundred and forty-four thousand includes the promise that God will write his law upon our hearts. But those who have this creative act performed for them by the Lord have been previously scattered.
Akka kakuu dhibbaa afurtamii afurii fi kuma afurtamii afurii wajjin haaromfamu keessa, Waaqayyo seera isaa garaa keenya irratti akka barreessu abdachiisni ni jira. Garuu warri hojii uumaa kana Gooftaan isaaniif raawwate kun, kana dura bittinnaa’anii turan.
Again the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given in possession. Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come. Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord God; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel. And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence. And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh. Ezekiel 11:14–19.
再び主の言葉がわたしに臨んで言った。「人の子よ、あなたの兄弟、まことにあなたの兄弟、あなたの親族の者たち、すなわちイスラエルの全家はことごとく、エルサレムの住民が『主から遠ざかれ。この地はわれわれに所有として与えられている』と言ったその人々である。ゆえに言え、『主なる神はこう仰せられる。わたしは彼らを諸国の民の中に遠く追いやり、もろもろの国々の中に散らしたが、彼らが行く国々において、わたしはしばらくの間、彼らのために聖所となる。』ゆえに言え、『主なる神はこう仰せられる。わたしはあなたがたを諸国の民の中から集め、あなたがたの散らされていた国々から集め寄せ、イスラエルの地をあなたがたに与える。彼らはそこに行って、その地のすべての忌むべきものと、すべての憎むべきものとをそこから取り除く。わたしは彼らに一つの心を与え、あなたがたのうちに新しい霊を授ける。わたしは彼らの肉から石の心を取り除き、肉の心を与える。』エゼキエル書 11:14–19。
More is to be said about the gathering of the one hundred and forty-four thousand in relation to the “scattering,” but we first need to bring together the consideration of the signature of Alpha and Omega in these nine references we are considering.
“กระนั้น ยังมีสิ่งที่จะต้องกล่าวเพิ่มเติมเกี่ยวกับการรวบรวมคนหนึ่งแสนสี่หมื่นสี่พันในความสัมพันธ์กับการ ‘กระจัดกระจาย’ แต่ก่อนอื่น เราจำเป็นต้องรวบรวมการพิจารณาเรื่องลายพระหัตถ์แห่งอัลฟาและโอเมกาในข้ออ้างอิงทั้งเก้าประการนี้ที่เรากำลังพิจารณาอยู่”
Two classes are represented in the last three chapters of Genesis. A class of rebels and a class of the wise. Both classes hear a voice that says this is the way walk ye in it, but one class refused to hearken to the trumpet and walk in the old paths. The class of rebels in Genesis forty-eight through fifty are represented by the thirteenth tribe.
मे असलिये जेनेसिस के आख़िरी तीन बाब में दुइ गो झुंड के चित्रण बा—एक बागियन के झुंड आ एक बुद्धिमानन के झुंड। दुइए झुंड अइसन एगो आवाज़ सुनत बा जे कहत बा, “ई बाटे, एहिए पर चलऽ,” बाकिर एक झुंड नरसिंगा के आवाज़ सुने से इनकार कर देला आ पुरनका रास्तन में चले से मुकर जाला। जेनेसिस अड़तालीस से पचास तक बागियन के जे झुंड देखावल गइल बा, ऊ तेरहवाँ गोत्र के द्वारा प्रतिनिधित्व कइल गइल बा।
At the beginning of ancient Israel there were thirteen tribes and at the beginning of modern Israel there were thirteen disciples. The one disciple that is distinguished from the other twelve disciples, (as was Ephraim distinguished from the other tribes) are both symbols of rebellion. Sister White directly calls Judas a foolish virgin.
An nan konmansman ansyen Izrayèl, te gen trèz branch fanmi; e nan konmansman Izrayèl modèn nan, te gen trèz disip. Disip sa a ki distenge ak douz lòt disip yo, (jan Efrayim te distenge ak lòt branch fanmi yo), yo toude se senbòl rebelyon. Sè White rele Jida dirèkteman yon vyèj san sajès.
“There have been and always will be tares among the wheat, the foolish virgins with the wise, those who have no oil in their vessels with their lamps. There was a covetous Judas in the church Christ formed on earth, and there will be Judases in the church in every stage of her history.” Signs of the Times, October 23, 1879.
“गहुँका बीचमा जङ्गली घाँसहरू थिए र सधैँ रहनेछन्, बुद्धिमान कुमारीहरूसँग मूर्ख कुमारीहरू पनि, आफ्ना बत्तीसहितका भाँडाहरूमा तेल नभएकाहरू पनि। ख्रीष्टले पृथ्वीमा स्थापना गर्नुभएको मण्डलीमा एक लोभी यहूदा थियो, र मण्डलीको इतिहासको प्रत्येक चरणमा यहूदाहरू रहनेछन्।” Signs of the Times, October 23, 1879.
Judas Iscariot was a foolish virgin; he was a tare and if a foolish virgin, then also a Laodicean.
യൂദാസ് ഇസ്കരിയോത്ത് ഒരു മൂഢകന്യകയായിരുന്നു; അവൻ ഒരു കളയായിരുന്നു; അവൻ ഒരു മൂഢകന്യകയായിരുന്നുവെങ്കിൽ, അവൻ ഒരു ലാവോഡിക്യനും ആയിരുന്നു.
“The state of the Church represented by the foolish virgins, is also spoken of as the Laodicean state.” Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.
« L’état de l’Église représenté par les vierges folles est également décrit comme l’état de Laodicée. » Review and Herald, 19 août 1890.
Joseph’s two sons both received a blessing from Jacob in chapter forty-eight of Genesis, and from that point on they are referred to as “half tribes.” Half tribes or not, they were still tribes. Judas Iscariot was replaced by Matthias in order to fill in the twelfth place formerly held by Judas Iscariot. Judas was a disciple, and in this sense—there were thirteen disciples at the end of ancient Israel, just as there were thirteen tribes at the beginning.
Les deux fils de Joseph reçurent tous deux une bénédiction de Jacob au chapitre quarante-huit de la Genèse, et à partir de ce moment-là ils sont désignés comme des « demi-tribus ». Demi-tribus ou non, ils étaient néanmoins des tribus. Judas Iscariote fut remplacé par Matthias afin d’occuper la douzième place auparavant tenue par Judas Iscariote. Judas était un disciple, et en ce sens, il y avait treize disciples à la fin de l’ancien Israël, tout comme il y avait treize tribus au commencement.
Joseph’s son Ephraim (the thirteenth tribe) became the symbol of the rebellion when the northern ten tribes rallied in support of Jeroboam and divided the kingdom into ten northern tribes and two southern tribes. Why do I identify Ephraim the son of Joseph as the symbol of rebellion instead of his brother Manasseh? The rebellion associated with Ephraim begins in chapter forty-eight, before Jacob blesses his twelve sons. In chapter forty-eight Jacob first blesses Joseph’s two sons. Because Manasseh was the first-born Joseph expects that the first blessing of his sons should go upon Manasseh, and Joseph rebels against Jacob choosing Ephraim.
József fia, Efraim (a tizenharmadik törzs) a lázadás jelképévé lett, amikor az északi tíz törzs Jeroboám támogatására összegyűlt, és a királyságot tíz északi és két déli törzsre osztotta. Miért József fiát, Efraimot azonosítom a lázadás jelképével, és nem testvérét, Manassét? Az Efraimhoz kapcsolódó lázadás a negyvennyolcadik fejezetben kezdődik, még mielőtt Jákób megáldaná tizenkét fiát. A negyvennyolcadik fejezetben Jákób először József két fiát áldja meg. Mivel Manassé volt az elsőszülött, József azt várja, hogy fiainak első áldása Manasséra szálljon, és József fellázad az ellen, hogy Jákób Efraimot választja.
The beginning of Ephraim as a representative of God’s elect possesses a testimony of rebellion, and the end of Ephraim is Leviticus twenty-six’s scattering of “seven times” from 723 BC through to 1798. In 723 BC the northern ten tribes, the kingdom of Ephraim, (also known as Israel) received a deadly wound as a kingdom of Bible prophecy. That deadly wound began a time prophecy that concluded with the papal power and its kingdom receiving a deadly wound in 1798. The deadly wound of the papal power in 1798 typifies the final fall of Babylon when the king of the north will “come to his end with none to help” in Daniel eleven verse forty-five. The rebellion and fall of Babylon in the last days was typified by the rebellion and fall of the papal power in 1798, which in turn was typified by the rebellion and fall of the kingdom of Ephraim (Israel) in 723 BC, which was typified by Joseph’s rebellion to his father’s prophetic inspiration as identified in the end of Genesis.

The rebellion that Ephraim is a symbol of started with his father’s rebellion (Joseph) against his father (Jacob). It ultimately leads to the rebellion of the ten northern tribes, which leads to the “scattering represented” as “seven times” in Leviticus twenty-six. The period of the time the northern kingdom was scattered is divided into two periods. One ending in the year 538, the next period ending in 1798, and all pointing to the message that is unsealed just before probation closes in the book of Revelation. That message identifies the final fall of Babylon. At each waymark of Ephraim’s prophetic history rebellion is marked. Just as is the rebellion of the thirteenth disciple, Judas Iscariot. This is two of the witnesses that identify the number thirteen as a symbol of rebellion. But none of these sacred truths can be recognized if a person isn’t standing on the foundations of Adventism that were built upon the first truth Miller discovered and the first truth discarded by Adventism.
用法莲作预表的那场悖逆,始于他的父亲(约瑟)对其父亲(雅各)的悖逆。它最终导致北方十个支派的悖逆,而这又引向《利未记》二十六章中以“七次”所表明的“分散”。北国被分散的时期分为两个阶段:一段止于公元538年,下一阶段止于1798年;这一切都指向《启示录》中那在恩典时期结束之前刚被开启的信息。那信息指出巴比伦最后的倾倒。在以法莲预言历史的每一个路标之处,都标示着悖逆;正如第十三个门徒加略人犹大的悖逆也同样被标示一样。这是见证数字十三象征悖逆的两位见证者。然而,若一个人不是站立在复临信仰的根基之上——这些根基乃是建立在米勒所发现的第一真理,以及后来被复临信仰所弃绝的第一真理之上——这些神圣的真理便丝毫无法被辨识。
The ending of Genesis agrees with all the other lines that we have been considering. In summation:
Ko ƙarewa nde Defte Fuɗɗorde njaɓii e ɗereeji fow ɗi en laawɗi no en yiɗi waɗde. E tottinannde:
In the beginning the heavenly trio of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit witnessed the creation of the heavens and earth that was accomplished by the Son, who is also the Word. The Word became the channel of communication from the Father, to mankind, and the Word is the only avenue for mankind to communicate with the Father. The Father’s message was given by the Son to the angel Gabriel, who replaced Lucifer (the light bearer) after Lucifer’s rebellion in heaven. Gabriel receives the light, or message and delivers it to a prophet, who is the holy created being assigned with passing the message from the Father to the fallen created family. The message given to the prophet is written out and then conveyed to mankind. At every step in the communication process the message is holy, and for this reason the prophets, who are fallen human beings are to be holy. At the point that the holy message is transferred into the hands of fallen humanity, humanity has the potential of handling a holy message with unsanctified hands. Thus, the light of the holy message produces both light and darkness. When the message is received by those in the family of fallen man it contains the identical creative power that created all things, which is the power that justifies that being. The beginning of the communication process illustrates the end of the communication process. Therefore, if the message is heard, read and kept, the message recreates fallen mankind into the image of the Son.
Al principio, el trío celestial del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo fue testigo de la creación de los cielos y de la tierra, llevada a cabo por el Hijo, quien también es la Palabra. La Palabra llegó a ser el canal de comunicación del Padre hacia la humanidad, y la Palabra es la única vía por la cual la humanidad puede comunicarse con el Padre. El mensaje del Padre fue dado por el Hijo al ángel Gabriel, quien reemplazó a Lucifer (el portador de luz) después de la rebelión de Lucifer en el cielo. Gabriel recibe la luz, o mensaje, y la entrega a un profeta, quien es el ser creado y santo encargado de transmitir el mensaje del Padre a la familia creada y caída. El mensaje dado al profeta se pone por escrito y luego es comunicado a la humanidad. En cada paso del proceso de comunicación, el mensaje es santo, y por esta razón los profetas, que son seres humanos caídos, han de ser santos. En el punto en que el mensaje santo es transferido a las manos de la humanidad caída, la humanidad tiene el potencial de manejar un mensaje santo con manos no santificadas. Así, la luz del mensaje santo produce tanto luz como tinieblas. Cuando el mensaje es recibido por quienes pertenecen a la familia del hombre caído, contiene el mismo poder creador que creó todas las cosas, el cual es el poder que justifica a ese ser. El principio del proceso de comunicación ilustra el fin del proceso de comunicación. Por lo tanto, si el mensaje es oído, leído y guardado, el mensaje recrea a la humanidad caída a la imagen del Hijo.
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Revelation 1:3.
Heureux celui qui lit, et ceux qui entendent les paroles de cette prophétie, et qui gardent les choses qui y sont écrites; car le temps est proche. Apocalypse 1:3.
John illustrates fallen mankind in the “last days” of the investigative judgment who hear a voice behind them and turn around to receive the message that leads to the past. Those that receive and make the message not a part of their life, but exclusively their life, are there and then justified. To be justified is to be made holy. When those who read and hear the message sent from the Father, accept the message and are made holy, it is through the creative power within the message. The creative power accomplishes the work of justifying men, when men believe as did Abraham. The message instructs them to turn and listen to the voice behind, which leads to the old paths, which are the foundational truths. The message guides them into all truth and as they walk the old paths, they are walking on the path of the justified.
योहनले अनुसन्धानात्मक न्यायका “अन्तिम दिनहरू” मा रहेका पतित मानवजातिलाई चित्रण गर्छन्, जसले आफ्ना पछाडिबाट आएको स्वर सुन्छन् र अतीततर्फ डोर्याउने सन्देश ग्रहण गर्न फर्कन्छन्। जसले त्यो सन्देश ग्रहण गर्छन् र त्यसलाई आफ्नो जीवनको एउटा अंश मात्र नभई, विशुद्ध रूपमा आफ्नो जीवन नै बनाउँछन्, तिनीहरू त्यहीँ र त्यतिखेरै धर्मी ठहराइन्छन्। धर्मी ठहरिनु भनेको पवित्र बनाइनु हो। जब पिताबाट पठाइएको सन्देश पढ्ने र सुन्नेहरूले त्यो सन्देश स्वीकार गर्छन् र पवित्र बनाइन्छन्, तब त्यो सन्देशभित्र निहित सृजनात्मक शक्तिद्वारा हुन्छ। मानिसहरूले अब्राहामलेझैँ विश्वास गर्दा, त्यही सृजनात्मक शक्तिले मानिसहरूलाई धर्मी ठहराउने कार्य सम्पन्न गर्दछ। उक्त सन्देशले तिनीहरूलाई फर्कन र पछाडिको स्वर सुन्न निर्देशन दिन्छ, जसले तिनीहरूलाई पुराना बाटाहरूमा डोर्याउँछ, र ती नै आधारभूत सत्यहरू हुन्। उक्त सन्देशले तिनीहरूलाई सम्पूर्ण सत्यतर्फ अगुवाइ गर्छ, र जब तिनीहरू ती पुराना बाटाहरूमा हिँड्छन्, तब तिनीहरू धर्मी ठहराइएकाहरूको मार्गमै हिँडिरहेका हुन्छन्।
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble. My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee. Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established. Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil. Proverbs 4:18–27.
La voie des justes est comme la lumière resplendissante, dont l’éclat va croissant jusqu’au plein jour. La voie des méchants est comme les ténèbres : ils ne savent à quoi ils trébuchent. Mon fils, sois attentif à mes paroles ; prête l’oreille à mes discours. Qu’ils ne s’éloignent pas de tes yeux ; garde-les au dedans de ton cœur. Car ils sont la vie pour ceux qui les trouvent, et la santé pour toute leur chair. Garde ton cœur plus que toute autre chose, car de lui procèdent les sources de la vie. Éloigne de toi la fausseté de la bouche, et détourne de toi la perversité des lèvres. Que tes yeux regardent en face, et que tes paupières se dirigent droit devant toi. Considère le sentier où tu poses le pied, et que toutes tes voies soient bien réglées. Ne te détourne ni à droite ni à gauche : détourne ton pied du mal. Proverbes 4:18–27.
Those justified by the message conveyed walk on the path that represents an ever-increasing light, but that very light makes the path of the wicked correspondingly darker. Light separates from darkness. The creative power that commanded for there to be light in the beginning produces the same effect upon mankind at the end as light did in the beginning. The class that refuses to hear the voice behind, and therefore choose to walk the darkened path “stumble” at his Word, for they stumble on the foundation stone, the old tried stone. The voice is Alpha and Omega, and when the justified hear those words and incline their hearts unto those words they keep those words in the midst of their hearts, for the Alpha and Omega turns their hearts to the fathers, (the past) and the hearts of the fathers point to the end.
Чрез благовестието, което им е предадено, оправданите ходят по пътя, който представлява все по-нарастваща светлина; но именно тази светлина прави пътя на нечестивите съответно по-тъмен. Светлината се отделя от тъмнината. Творческата сила, която в началото заповяда да има светлина, произвежда върху човечеството в края същото въздействие, каквото светлината произведе в началото. Класата, която отказва да чуе гласа отзад и поради това избира да върви по потъмнения път, „се препъва“ в Неговото Слово, защото се препъва в крайъгълния камък, древния изпитан камък. Гласът е Алфа и Омега, и когато оправданите чуят тези думи и приклонят сърцата си към тези думи, те пазят тези думи сред сърцата си; защото Алфа и Омега обръща сърцата им към бащите, (миналото) а сърцата на бащите сочат към края.
The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just. Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee. With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. Isaiah 26:7–9.
ଜଣେ ଧର୍ମୀଙ୍କର ପଥ ସରଳତାମୟ; ହେ ପରମ ସରଳ, ତୁମେ ଧର୍ମୀଙ୍କର ପଥକୁ ମାପ କରୁଛ। ହଁ, ହେ ପ୍ରଭୁ, ତୁମ ନ୍ୟାୟବିଧିର ପଥରେ ଆମେ ତୁମ ପାଇଁ ଅପେକ୍ଷା କରିଛୁ; ଆମ ଆତ୍ମାର ଆକାଙ୍କ୍ଷା ତୁମ ନାମ ପାଇଁ ଏବଂ ତୁମ ସ୍ମରଣ ପାଇଁ। ମୋର ଆତ୍ମା ସହିତ ମୁଁ ରାତ୍ରିରେ ତୁମକୁ ଆକାଙ୍କ୍ଷା କରିଛି; ହଁ, ମୋର ଭିତରର ଆତ୍ମା ସହିତ ମୁଁ ପ୍ରଭାତେ ଶୀଘ୍ର ତୁମକୁ ଖୋଜିବି; କାରଣ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଯେତେବେଳେ ତୁମ ନ୍ୟାୟବିଧି ପ୍ରକାଶିତ ହୁଏ, ସେତେବେଳେ ଜଗତର ନିବାସୀମାନେ ଧର୍ମ ଶିଖିବେ। ଯିଶାୟ 26:7–9।
God weighs, or He judges, those who walk the path of the just, and He does so in the “last days” when His judgments are in the land. The just are those who have waited for the Lord in fulfillment of the tarrying time in the parable of the ten virgins. The desire of those walking the path of increasing knowledge, is for a greater and greater understanding of God’s name, His character. Those who have waited for their Lord, are those that proclaim the final warning message, for they are those who proclaim the Midnight Cry, which is of course the first internal message of Revelation eighteen that is followed by the second, external message.
Dew weighs, oder He judges, those who walk the path of the just, und dies tut Er in den „last days“, wenn His judgments im Land sind. Die Gerechten sind jene, die auf den Herrn gewartet haben in Erfüllung der Verzugszeit im Gleichnis von den zehn Jungfrauen. Das Verlangen derer, die den Pfad zunehmender Erkenntnis wandeln, ist nach einem immer tieferen und immer größeren Verständnis des Namens Gottes, seines Charakters. Diejenigen, die auf ihren Herrn gewartet haben, sind es, die die letzte Warnungsbotschaft verkündigen; denn sie sind es, die den Mitternachtsruf verkündigen, welcher selbstverständlich die erste innere Botschaft von Offenbarung achtzehn ist, auf die die zweite, äußere Botschaft folgt.
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Revelation 18:1–4.
At pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito ay nakita ko ang isa pang anghel na bumababa mula sa langit, na may dakilang kapamahalaan; at ang lupa ay naliwanagan ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian. At siya’y sumigaw nang makapangyarihan sa malakas na tinig, na sinasabi, Bumagsak na, bumagsak na ang dakilang Babilonia, at naging tahanan ng mga demonyo, at kulungan ng bawat karumal-dumal na espiritu, at piitan ng bawat marumi at kasuklam-suklam na ibon. Sapagkat ang lahat ng mga bansa ay uminom ng alak ng poot ng kaniyang pakikiapid, at ang mga hari sa lupa ay nakiapid sa kaniya, at ang mga mangangalakal sa lupa ay nagsiyaman sa kasaganaan ng kaniyang kalayawan. At narinig ko ang isa pang tinig mula sa langit, na nagsasabi, Magsilabas kayo sa kaniya, bayan ko, upang huwag kayong makibahagi sa kaniyang mga kasalanan, at upang huwag ninyong tanggapin ang kaniyang mga salot. Apocalipsis 18:1–4.
When the angel of Revelation eighteen descended on September 11, 2001, the Seventh-day Adventist church refused its final call to return to the old paths. It then ceased to be the horn of true Protestantism in the United States. At that point a testing process began for those who chose to take the message of that strong voice and eat it, as typified by John when the angel of Revelation ten descended at the beginning of Adventism on August 11, 1840. The spiritual nation that had taken the mantle of true Protestantism when the first angel’s message was rejected, then followed in the footsteps of apostate Protestantism at the beginning of Adventism.
U alwaaqichu ka malaggii Muujintii siddeed iyo toban uu soo degay Sebtembar 11, 2001, kaniisadda Seventh-day Adventist waxay diidday baaqeedii ugu dambeeyey ee ahaa inay ku soo noqoto jidadkii hore. Markaasay joojisay inay noqoto geeskii Protestantism-ka runta ah ee Maraykanka dhexdiisa. Halkaas waxaa ka billowday hab imtixaan ah oo ku wajahan kuwii doortay inay qaataan farriinta codkaas xoogga leh oo ay cunaan, sida uu Yooxanaa tusaale uga dhigay markii malaggii Muujintii toban uu soo degay bilowgii Adventism-ka Agoosto 11, 1840. Quruuntii ruuxiga ahayd ee qaadatay go’ii Protestantism-ka runta ah markii farriintii malaa’igta kowaad la diiday, markaas waxay raacday raadkii Protestantism-kii riddada noqday bilowgii Adventism-ka.
The true Protestant horn was then given to those who accepted the message in the little book that was in the angel’s hand in Revelation ten. The testing process at the beginning of Adventism from 1840 through 1844 represents a testing process at the end of Adventism from September 11, 2001 until the Sunday law in the United States. Within the first history of 1840 to 1844, and the testing process that began on September 11, 2001, marks a dispensational transition from the former body of believers who held the mantle of Protestantism, unto a new body of believers who take the mantle of true Protestantism.
لەو کاتەدا شاخی ڕاستەقینەی پرۆتستانتیەکان درا بەوانەی پەیامی ئەو بچووک پەرتووکەیان پەسەند کرد کە لە دەستی فریشتەکەدا بوو لە ئاشکراکردن ١٠. پڕۆسەی تاقیکردنەوەکە لە سەرەتای ئادڤێنتیزم لە 1840 تا 1844 نوێنەرایەتی پڕۆسەیەکی تاقیکردنەوە دەکات لە کۆتایی ئادڤێنتیزم، لە 11ی ئەیلوولی 2001ەوە هەتا یاسای یەکشەممە لە ویلایەتە یەکگرتووەکان. لە ناو ئەو مێژووی یەکەمەی 1840 تا 1844، و پڕۆسەی تاقیکردنەوەکەی کە لە 11ی ئەیلوولی 2001 دەستی پێ کرد، گواستنەوەیەکی دیسپێنسەیشنی نیشان دەدات لەو کۆمەڵە باوەڕدارانەی پێشووتر کە عەبای پرۆتستانتیزمیان هەڵگرتبوو، بۆ کۆمەڵەیەکی نوێی باوەڕداران کە عەبای پرۆتستانتیزمی ڕاستەقینە وەردەگرن.
More important to our consideration of the path of the justified is that within that history there is a disappointment that marks the beginning of the tarrying time. The faithful wait for their Lord in that time, which ends with the unsealing of the message of the Midnight Cry. That testing process at the beginning of Adventism ended when the message of the Midnight Cry concluded on October 22, 1844. The testing process at the end concludes for those represented by John at the Sunday law in the United States. The message of the Midnight Cry at the end, will conclude just as at the beginning, and in the beginning of Adventism the message of the Midnight Cry was unsealed in advance of the close of the testing process. The message of the Midnight Cry at the beginning is now being unsealed at the end.
Më e rëndësishme për shqyrtimin tonë të shtegut të të shfajësuarve është se, brenda asaj historie, gjendet një zhgënjim që shënon fillimin e kohës së vonesës. Besnikët e presin Zotin e tyre në atë kohë, e cila përfundon me çvulosjen e mesazhit të Britmës së Mesnatës. Ai proces sprove në fillim të Adventizmit mori fund kur mesazhi i Britmës së Mesnatës përfundoi më 22 tetor 1844. Procesi i sprovës në fund përfundon për ata që përfaqësohen nga Gjoni te ligji i së dielës në Shtetet e Bashkuara. Mesazhi i Britmës së Mesnatës në fund do të përfundojë pikërisht si në fillim, dhe në fillimin e Adventizmit mesazhi i Britmës së Mesnatës u çvulos përpara mbylljes së procesit të sprovës. Mesazhi i Britmës së Mesnatës në fillim tani po çvuloset në fund.
The justified wise virgins enter into covenant with God when the wicked foolish virgins enter into a covenant of death.
Les vierges sages justifiées entrent en alliance avec Dieu lorsque les vierges folles méchantes entrent dans une alliance avec la mort.
To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear. But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Isaiah 28:12–16.
যাঁহাদের তিনি বলিয়াছিলেন, এই সেই বিশ্রাম, যাহার দ্বারা তোমরা ক্লান্তকে বিশ্রাম দিতে পার; এবং এই সেই সতেজতা; তথাপি তাহারা শুনিতে ইচ্ছা করিল না। কিন্তু সদাপ্রভুর বাক্য তাহাদের নিকটে হইল বিধির উপর বিধি, বিধির উপর বিধি; পঙ্ক্তির উপর পঙ্ক্তি, পঙ্ক্তির উপর পঙ্ক্তি; এখানে অল্প, এবং সেখানে অল্প; যেন তাহারা গিয়া পশ্চাতে পড়ে, এবং চূর্ণ-বিচূর্ণ হয়, এবং ফাঁদে আটকায়, এবং ধৃত হয়। অতএব, হে পরিহাসকারী লোকেরা, তোমরা, যাহারা যিরূশালেমে অবস্থিত এই জাতির উপরে শাসন কর, সদাপ্রভুর বাক্য শুন। কারণ তোমরা বলিয়াছ, আমরা মৃত্যুর সহিত এক সন্ধি করিয়াছি, এবং পাতালের সহিত এক সমঝোতায় উপনীত হইয়াছি; যখন প্লাবনস্বরূপ দণ্ড অতিক্রম করিয়া যাইবে, তখন তাহা আমাদের উপরে আসিবে না; কেননা আমরা মিথ্যাকে আমাদের আশ্রয় করিয়াছি, এবং প্রতারণার অধীনে আপনাদিগকে লুকাইয়াছি: অতএব প্রভু সদাপ্রভু এইরূপ বলেন, দেখ, আমি সিয়োনে ভিত্তির জন্য এক প্রস্তর স্থাপন করি, পরীক্ষিত প্রস্তর, মহামূল্যবান কোণার প্রস্তর, দৃঢ় ভিত্তি; যে বিশ্বাস করে, সে তাড়াহুড়া করিবে না। যিশাইয় 28:12–16.
The justified take the holy message of the Midnight Cry to the church and thereafter they proclaim the message of the second voice as they call mankind out of Babylon.
Der Lyriktext aus dem Englischen in fließendes, natürliches, publikationsreifes **ff** zu übersetzen.
“So in the last work for the warning of the world, two distinct calls are made to the churches. The second angel’s message is, ‘Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.’ And in the loud cry of the third angel’s message a voice is heard from heaven saying, ‘Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.’” Review and Herald, December 6, 1892.
“Kwa hiyo katika kazi ya mwisho ya kuionya dunia, makanisa yanapewa miito miwili iliyo dhahiri. Ujumbe wa malaika wa pili ni, ‘Babeli umeanguka, umeanguka, mji ule mkubwa, kwa sababu umewanywesha mataifa yote divai ya ghadhabu ya uasherati wake.’ Na katika kilio kikuu cha ujumbe wa malaika wa tatu sauti husikiwa kutoka mbinguni ikisema, ‘Tokeni kwake, enyi watu wangu, msije mkashiriki dhambi zake, wala msipokee mapigo yake. Kwa maana dhambi zake zimefika hata mbinguni, naye Mungu amekumbuka maovu yake.’” Review and Herald, December 6, 1892.
Those who come out of Babylon and join those walking on the path of the just are accepted into the fold through the water of baptism that is represented by the name of the heavenly trio. The justified, whether it is those who are currently hearing the message delivered to John on Patmos, or those who thereafter are called out of Babylon are all justified by receiving the Holy Spirit. That combination of the Holy Spirit’s divinity and man’s humanity was accomplished, as set forth as an example when Christ took upon himself human nature. The one hundred and forty-four thousand were represented upon two witnesses, the twelve sons of Jacob and the twelve disciples. The wicked are represented by the thirteenth tribe and the thirteenth disciple. Both “thirteens” in either illustration were called to be priests unto God, and those who reject that calling are represented by Esau, while his younger brother Jacob represents those who accept the calling. Esau and Jacob both represent Laodicean Seventh-day Adventists at the end of the world. One class accepts the holy message conveyed through the prophet’s writings and is changed unto Israel, while Esau retains his name.
Wɔn a wɔfi Babilon mu ba na wɔbata wɔn a wɔnantew treneefo kwan so no ho no, wogye wɔn tom hyɛ nguankuw no mu denam asubɔ mu nsu a ɔsoro baasa no din gyina hɔ ma no no so.

There is of course much more in these nine lines of Alpha and Omega, for this was simply a brief summation of beginnings and endings in God’s Word.
Bi dãjudaju, ameʋe geɖe le Alpha kple Omega ƒe fli enyi sia me, elabena esia nye gɔmeɖoɖo kpui aɖe ko si ƒo nu tso gɔmedzedze kple nuwuwuwo ŋu le Mawu ƒe Nya me.
Nine lines of history, representing prophetic histories from the creation to the Second Coming. All nine of these prophetic lines of beginnings and endings are directly connected to the first three verses of Revelation chapter one. Those three verses identify that the Revelation of Jesus Christ, that is unsealed just before probation closes, is a manifestation of God’s creative power. What other power could construct such a complex inter-woven testimony from a variety of witnesses, who provided their testimony from the time of Moses until the time of John the Revelator?
Neuf lignes de l’histoire, représentant des histoires prophétiques depuis la création jusqu’à la Seconde Venue. Ces neuf lignes prophétiques de commencements et de fins sont toutes directement liées aux trois premiers versets du chapitre un de l’Apocalypse. Ces trois versets indiquent que la Révélation de Jésus-Christ, qui est descellée juste avant la clôture du temps de grâce, est une manifestation de la puissance créatrice de Dieu. Quelle autre puissance pourrait édifier un témoignage aussi complexe et intimement entrelacé à partir d’une diversité de témoins, qui ont rendu leur témoignage depuis le temps de Moïse jusqu’au temps de Jean le Révélateur ?
