I intend to demonstrate how the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six is “hidden in plain sight” in the book of Daniel, while also identifying that it was hidden through the human instruments which God employed in presenting “the stone” that is stumbled over in the book of Daniel. To follow the light of this presentation requires “integrity.” The definition of integrity that I am suggesting, would be defined as consistency in one’s actions, values, methods, and principles. It would demand that we adhere to what is revealed within God’s Word, even when it does not agree with human ideas that contradict God’s Word.
Kuv npaj siab yuav qhia kom pom tias “xya lub sijhawm” hauv Leviticus nees nkaum-rau yog “zais nyob rau qhov pom tseeb” hauv phau Daniyee, thiab tib lub sijhawm kuj yuav qhia tias nws tau raug zais los ntawm cov cuab yeej tibneeg uas Vajtswv tau siv hauv kev nthuav tawm “lub pob zeb” uas neeg dawm ntog rau hauv phau Daniyee. Kom ua raws li qhov kaj ntawm qhov kev nthuav qhia no, yuav tsum muaj “kev ncaj ncees ruaj khov.” Lub ntsiab lus ntawm kev ncaj ncees ruaj khov uas kuv tab tom hais no, yuav txhais tau tias yog kev sib xws ruaj khov hauv ib tug neeg tej kev ua, tej nqi tseem ceeb, tej txheej txheem, thiab tej ntsiab cai. Nws yuav tsum kom peb lo ruaj rau yam uas tau raug tshwm tawm nyob hauv Vajtswv Txojlus, txawm yog thaum nws tsis phim tibneeg tej tswv yim uas tawm tsam Vajtswv Txojlus.
“Strict integrity should be cherished by every student. Every mind should turn with reverent attention to the revealed word of God. Light and grace will be given to those who thus obey God. They will behold wondrous things out of His law. Great truths that have lain unheeded and unseen since the day of Pentecost, are to shine from God’s word in their native purity. To those who truly love God the Holy Spirit will reveal truths that have faded from the mind, and will also reveal truths that are entirely new. Those who eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of God will bring from the books of Daniel and Revelation truth that is inspired by the Holy Spirit. They will start into action forces that cannot be repressed. The lips of children will be opened to proclaim the mysteries that have been hidden from the minds of men. The Lord has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise, and the weak things of the world to confound the mighty.” The Fundamentals of Christian Education, 474.
“Kev ncaj ncees ruaj khov yuav tsum raug txhua tus tub kawm khaws cia muaj nqis. Txhua lub siab yuav tsum tig los nrog txoj kev hwm ntshai mloog Vajtswv Txojlus uas tau tshwm tawm lawm. Qhov kaj thiab txoj kev tshav ntuj yuav raug pub rau cov uas mloog Vajtswv lus li no. Lawv yuav pom tej yam txaus xav tsis thoob hauv Nws txoj kevcai. Tej qhov tseeb loj uas txij hnub Peetekos los tau pw tsis raug quav ntsej thiab tsis raug pom, yuav ci tawm hauv Vajtswv Txojlus nyob hauv lawv txoj kev dawb huv qub txeeg qub teg. Rau cov uas hlub Vajtswv tiag tiag, Vaj Ntsuj Plig Dawb Huv yuav nthuav tej qhov tseeb uas twb ploj zuj zus ntawm lub siab lawm, thiab tseem yuav nthuav tej qhov tseeb uas tshiab kiag li. Cov uas noj Leej Tub ntawm Vajtswv cev nqaij thiab haus Nws cov ntshav yuav nqa tawm ntawm phau ntawv Daniyees thiab Tshwmsim tej qhov tseeb uas Vaj Ntsuj Plig Dawb Huv tshoov siab. Lawv yuav ua rau tej zog quab yuam sawv los txav mus uas tsis muaj leejtwg txwv tau. Cov menyuam yaus daim di ncauj yuav raug qhib kom tshaj tawm tej yam tob tob uas tau muab zais ntawm tibneeg lub siab. Tus Tswv tau xaiv tej yam ruam ntawm lub ntiajteb no los ua rau cov neeg txawj ntse poob ntsej muag, thiab xaiv tej yam qaug zog ntawm lub ntiajteb no los ua rau cov neeg muaj hwjchim poob ntsej muag.” The Fundamentals of Christian Education, 474.
An easy example of both the human error that is found in the book of Daniel, and the unwillingness to adhere to God’s Word, can be found in the word translated as “daily” in Daniel chapter eight. Integrity would demand that if Ellen White commented on that word, as she does, that as Seventh-day Adventists that profess to uphold the Spirit of Prophecy, we would automatically use her commentary on the word to direct our understanding.
Ib qho piv txwv uas pom tau yooj yim txog ob qho tib si—kev yuam kev tibneeg uas pom muaj nyob hauv phau Daniyees, thiab kev tsis kam lo ruaj rau Vajtswv Txojlus—yuav pom tau nyob hauv lo lus uas tau txhais ua “niaj hnub” hauv Daniyees tshooj yim. Kev ncaj ncees yuav tsum kom yog tias Ellen White tau hais lus piav txog lo lus ntawd, ib yam li nws tau ua lawm, ces peb uas yog Seventh-day Adventists uas lees tias peb txhawb nqa tus Ntsuj Plig ntawm Lus Qhia Yav Tom Ntej, yuav cia li siv nws cov lus piav txog lo lus ntawd los coj peb txoj kev to taub.
“Then I saw in relation to the ‘Daily,’ that the word ‘sacrifice’ was supplied by man’s wisdom, and does not belong to the text; and that the Lord gave the correct view of it to those who gave the judgment hour cry. When union existed, before 1844, nearly all were united on the correct view of the ‘Daily;’ but since 1844, in the confusion, other views have been embraced, and darkness and confusion has followed.” Review and Herald, November 1, 1850.
“Ces kuv thiaj pom txog qhov ‘Niaj Hnub,’ tias lo lus ‘kev fij xyeem’ yog tibneeg txoj kev txawj ntse ntxiv nkag los, thiab tsis yog ib feem ntawm nqe vajlugkub ntawd; thiab tias tus Tswv tau muab txoj kev to taub uas raug rau cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj kev quaj hu txog lub sijhawm txiav txim. Thaum tseem muaj kev sib haum xeeb, ua ntej xyoo 1844, yuav luag txhua tus puavleej koom siab rau txoj kev to taub uas raug txog qhov ‘Niaj Hnub;’ tab sis txij li xyoo 1844 los, nyob hauv txoj kev ntxhov thiab tsis meej pem, lwm yam kev xav tau raug lees txais, thiab kev tsaus ntuj nrog kev tsis meej pem tau ua raws los.” Review and Herald, November 1, 1850.
We could spend a great deal of time on these two sentences, for when they finally get placed in the book Early Writings, the human editors have placed a misguided definition of what is stated, but that is another story. For our purposes we simply wish to point out two relevant points. The first point is that Sister White says “the word “sacrifice” was supplied by man’s wisdom, and does not belong to the text.”
Peb yuav siv sij hawm ntau heev rau ob kab lus no, rau qhov thaum kawg lawv raug muab tso rau hauv phau ntawv Early Writings, cov neeg kho los ntawm tibneeg tau tso ib qho kev txhais yuam kev rau yam uas tau hais tseg, tiam sis qhov ntawd yog ib zaj dab neeg txawv lawm. Rau peb lub hom phiaj no, peb tsuas xav taw tes rau ob lub ntsiab lus uas cuam tshuam xwb. Lub ntsiab lus thawj yog tias Muam White hais tias, “lo lus ‘sacrifice’ yog tibneeg tej tswv yim txawj ntse ntxiv nkag los, thiab tsis yog ntawm nqe ntawv ntawd.”
Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? Daniel 8:13.
Ces kuv hnov ib tug neeg dawb huv hais lus, ces muaj dua ib tug neeg dawb huv hais rau tus neeg dawb huv uas tab tom hais ntawd tias, Lub zeem muag hais txog txoj kev txi niaj hnub, thiab kev ua txhaum uas ua rau muaj kev puam tsuaj, uas muab ob qho tib si lub chaw dawb huv thiab pab tub rog rau luag tsuj rau hauv qab ko taw, yuav kav ntev npaum li cas? Daniel 8:13.
The previous verse is the question that elicits the answer of verse fourteen, and that answer represents the central pillar and foundation of Adventism. And in the very question that produces that great light represented as the central pillar of Adventism, we are informed that human wisdom has made an error by placing an added word into the translation of the verse.
Nqe uas los ua ntej yog lo lus nug uas ua rau tau lo lus teb ntawm nqe kaum plaub, thiab lo lus teb ntawd sawv cev rau tus ncej tseem ceeb nruab nrab thiab lub hauv paus ntawm Kev Ntseeg Adven. Thiab nyob rau hauv lo lus nug uas tsim tawm qhov kaj loj ntawd uas raug sawv cev ua tus ncej tseem ceeb nruab nrab ntawm Kev Ntseeg Adven, peb raug ceeb toom tias tib neeg txoj kev txawj ntse tau ua yuam kev los ntawm kev tso ib lo lus ntxiv rau hauv kev txhais ntawm nqe ntawd.
There are literally hundreds of added words in the translation of the 1611 KJV Bible, but there is only one time that God identifies any of those hundreds of added words as erroneous. And it is clear it was an error that was produced by the human side of the combination of humanity and divinity which produced the Word of God. More significant is that there would be no need for any inspired commentary on the added word “sacrifice” if it were not something that produced an incorrect understanding of the verse. It is clear that it does, for the inspired commentary not only identifies that the word should not be there, but also identifies that “those who gave the judgment hour cry,” were given “the correct view” of the “daily” by the Lord. Integrity demands that we use those two sentences just as they read.
Muaj tiag tiag ntau pua lo lus uas tau ntxiv rau hauv qhov kev txhais Vajlugkub KJV xyoo 1611, tiam sis tsuas muaj ib zaug xwb uas Vajtswv qhia meej tias ib lo lus hauv cov ntau pua lo lus ntxiv ntawd yog yuam kev. Thiab pom tseeb tias qhov ntawd yog ib qho yuam kev uas raug tsim los ntawm sab tibneeg hauv qhov kev sib xyaw ntawm tibneeg thiab Vajtswv txoj kev ntuj uas tau tsim tawm los ua Vajtswv Txojlus. Qhov tseem ceeb tshaj ntawd yog tias yuav tsis muaj ib qho lus piav qhia uas raug tshoov siab txog lo lus ntxiv “kev txi” yog hais tias lo lus ntawd tsis yog ib yam uas ua rau muaj kev to taub yuam kev txog nqe Vajlugkub ntawd. Pom tseeb tias nws ua li ntawd, rau qhov lus piav qhia uas raug tshoov siab ntawd tsis yog tsuas qhia tias lo lus ntawd tsis tsim nyog nyob ntawd xwb, tabsis kuj tseem qhia tias “cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj xov quaj hu txog lub sij hawm txiav txim,” tau txais “qhov kev nkag siab uas yog” txog “txoj haujlwm niaj hnub” los ntawm tus Tswv. Kev ncaj ncees yuam kom peb siv ob kab lus ntawd raws nraim li lawv tau sau tseg.
Those who gave the judgment hour cry identified “the daily” as a symbol representing paganism or pagan Rome, depending on the context where it is located. The word translated as “daily” occurs five times in the book of Daniel. All five occurrences are as a noun. The word occurs one hundred and four times in God’s Word, and ninety-nine times it is used as an adjective, but in the book of Daniel alone, it is used as a noun. The men who translated the King James Bible saw the word ninety-nine times as an adjective, so when it came to the book of Daniel, they attempted to make it an adjective in order to agree with all the other times it occurred as an adjective. In order to do that, they added the word “sacrifice.” But God, through Ellen White, said that “sacrifice” should be omitted, which would mean that “the daily” is to be understood as a noun.
Cov uas tshaj tawm txoj kev quaj ntawm teev kev txiav txim tau txheeb xyuas tias “yam niaj hnub” yog ib lub cim sawv cev rau kev pe mlom lossis Loos kev pe mlom, nyob ntawm lub ntsiab lus uas nws nyob hauv. Lo lus uas tau txhais ua “niaj hnub” tshwm sim tsib zaug hauv phau Daniyee. Tag nrho tsib zaug ntawd yog siv ua ib lo lus npe. Lo lus ntawd tshwm sim ib puas plaub zaug hauv Vajtswv Txojlus, thiab cuaj caum cuaj zaug nws raug siv ua ib lo lus qhia yam ntxwv, tab sis tsuas yog hauv phau Daniyee xwb thiaj siv ua ib lo lus npe. Cov txiv neej uas txhais Vajlugkub King James pom lo lus ntawd cuaj caum cuaj zaug ua ib lo lus qhia yam ntxwv, yog li thaum lawv los txog rau phau Daniyee, lawv thiaj sim ua kom nws yog ib lo lus qhia yam ntxwv kom haum nrog txhua zaus uas nws tshwm sim ua ib lo lus qhia yam ntxwv. Yuav kom ua tau li ntawd, lawv thiaj ntxiv lo lus “kev txi.” Tab sis Vajtswv, los ntawm Ellen White, tau hais tias lo lus “kev txi” yuav tsum raug tshem tawm, uas txhais hais tias “yam niaj hnub” yuav tsum raug to taub tias yog ib lo lus npe.
Those who stand opposed to God’s counsel on this word within Adventism define the word as a symbol of Christ’s heavenly sanctuary ministry, but those who gave the judgment hour cry correctly defined it as paganism. Adventism today uses a symbol of a satanic power to represent Christ!
Cov neeg uas sawv tawm tsam Vajtswv txoj lus ntuas txog lo lus no hauv Adventism txhais lo lus ntawd tias yog ib lub cim ntawm Khetos txoj hauj lwm ua pov thawj hauv lub chaw dawb huv saum ntuj ceeb tsheej, tiam sis cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj kev quaj hu txog teev txiav txim tau txhais nws kom raug tias yog kev teev dab teev mlom. Adventism niaj hnub no siv ib lub cim ntawm ib lub hwj chim Xatas los sawv cev rau Khetos!
Through erroneous human logic, the true understanding of the word translated as “the daily” has been hidden from Adventism. Adventists that base their prophetic study on subjects that occur randomly through the years in their Sabbath School quarterlies lazily drink the Kool-Aid that is dished out through those quarterlies, and which are confirmed by pastors who themselves have not the integrity necessary to allow any input from the comments on the subject by Sister White.
Los ntawm tibneeg txoj kev txiav txim uas yuam kev, txoj kev to taub tseeb txog lo lus uas txhais ua “qhov niaj hnub” tau raug zais ntawm Adventism. Cov Adventist uas tsa lawv txoj kev kawm txog tej yaj saub los ntawm tej ntsiab lus uas tshwm sim tsis raws kab ke dhau xyoo dhau xyoo hauv lawv cov ntawv Sabbath School quarterlies, ua neeg tub nkeeg haus nkaus li “Kool-Aid” uas muab faib tawm los ntawm cov quarterlies ntawd, thiab uas raug cov xibhwb lees paub—cov xibhwb uas lawv tus kheej tsis muaj qhov ncaj ncees tsim nyog los pub kom muaj ib qho kev pab tswv yim twg li los ntawm Niam Tsev Dawb cov lus hais txog qhov kev kawm ntawd.
The history of the controversy of “the daily” reached the turning point around 1911, where Sister White directly stated that those who had rejected the pioneer understanding of “the daily” as paganism, and who were teaching that “the daily” represented Christ’s sanctuary ministry, had received their understanding from “angels that were expelled from heaven” (20 MR 17).
Keeb kwm ntawm qhov kev sib cav txog “the daily” tau mus txog rau lub ntsiab chaw tig ncig kwv yees li xyoo 1911, thaum uas Muam White tau hais ncaj qha tias cov uas tau tsis lees txais txoj kev to taub ntawm cov pioneer hais tias “the daily” yog kev pe dab qhuas, thiab cov uas tab tom qhia tias “the daily” sawv cev rau Khetos txoj hauj lwm qhuab qhia nyob hauv lub tuam tsev dawb huv, twb tau txais lawv txoj kev to taub ntawd los ntawm “cov tim tswv uas raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj ceeb tsheej” (20 MR 17).
The truth of “the daily” has been identified clearly by Sister White, and she teaches that “holy angels” guided the mind of William Miller and that “angels expelled from heaven” guide the minds of those who teach that “the daily” represents Christ’s heavenly sanctuary ministry. The truth of “the daily”, as presented by those who gave the judgment hour cry, was discovered by William Miller.
Qhov tseeb txog “txoj hauj lwm txhua hnub” twb raug Muam White qhia kom meej lawm, thiab nws qhia tias “cov tim tswv dawb huv” tau coj William Miller lub siab, hos “cov tim tswv raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj ceeb tsheej” yog cov coj lub siab ntawm cov uas qhia tias “txoj hauj lwm txhua hnub” sawv cev rau Khetos txoj hauj lwm qhuab qhia hauv lub chaw dawb huv saum ntuj ceeb tsheej. Qhov tseeb txog “txoj hauj lwm txhua hnub,” raws li cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj suab quaj txog teev txiav txim tau nthuav tawm, yog William Miller tus uas nrhiav tau.
“I read on, and could find no other case in which it [the daily] was found, but in Daniel. I then [by the aid of a concordance] took those words which stood in connection with it, ‘take away;’ he shall take away the daily; ‘from the time the daily shall be taken away,’ &c. I read on, and thought I should find no light on the text; finally I came to 2 Thess. ii, 7, 8. ‘For the mystery of iniquity doth already work; only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way, and then shall that wicked be revealed,’ &c. And when I had come to that text, O, how clear and glorious the truth appeared! There it is! That is the daily! Well, now, what does Paul mean by ‘he who now letteth,’ or hindereth? By ‘the man of sin,’ and the ‘wicked,’ Popery is meant. Well, what is it which hinders Popery from being revealed? Why, it is Paganism; well, then, ‘the daily’ must mean Paganism.” Second Advent Manual, 66.
“Kuv nyeem mus ntxiv, thiab nrhiav tsis pom ib rooj plaub twg ntxiv uas lo lus ntawd [the daily] raug siv, tsuas yog nyob hauv Daniyees xwb. Ces kuv [nrog kev pab ntawm ib phau concordance] thiaj coj cov lus uas sawv txuas nrog nws los tshuaj xyuas, xws li, ‘rho tawm mus;’ nws yuav rho tus daily tawm mus; ‘txij lub sijhawm uas tus daily raug rho tawm mus,’ thiab lwm yam. Kuv nyeem mus ntxiv, thiab xav tias tej zaum kuv yuav nrhiav tsis tau ib qho kaj rau ntawm nqe ntawd; thaum kawg kuv mus txog 2 Thess. ii, 7, 8. ‘Rau qhov txoj kev tsis ncaj ncees uas zais twb tab tom ua haujlwm lawm; tsuas yog tus uas tam sim no tseem txwv yuav tseem txwv mus kom txog thaum nws raug tshem tawm ntawm txoj kev, ces tus neeg phem ntawd yuav raug muab qhia tawm los,’ thiab lwm yam. Thiab thaum kuv los txog nqe ntawd lawm, Au, qhov tseeb tau tshwm los meej thiab muaj hwjchim kawg nkaus npaum li cas! Nyob ntawd ntag! Qhov ntawd yog tus daily! Zoo, tam sim no, Povlauj txhais li cas thaum hais tias ‘tus uas tam sim no tseem txwv,’ los yog tseem tabkaum? Los ntawm ‘tus neeg txhaum,’ thiab tus ‘neeg phem,’ yog hais txog txoj kev Kav Tos Liv. Zoo, yog li ntawd, yam twg yog yam uas tabkaum txoj kev Kav Tos Liv tsis pub raug muab qhia tawm? Yog lawm, nws yog kev pe dab pe mlom; yog li ntawd, ‘tus daily’ yuav tsum txhais hais tias kev pe dab pe mlom.” Second Advent Manual, 66.
What is really sobering about Miller’s discovery that “the daily” represented paganism, is where he found the truth. He found it in the passage of the apostle Paul’s writings where Paul not only defines “the daily” as paganism, but it is the passage identifying that those who received not the love of the truth, receive strong delusion. The acceptance of “the daily” as a symbol of Christ’s sanctuary ministry, the definition that came from angels that were expelled from heaven, is the symbol of those in Adventism who have not the integrity necessary to rightly divide the word of truth, and therefore are already destined to receive strong delusion.
Qhov uas txaus ntshai tiag tiag txog Miller txoj kev nrhiav pom tias “the daily” sawv cev rau kev teev dab teev mlom, yog qhov chaw uas nws nrhiav tau qhov tseeb ntawd. Nws nrhiav tau nws hauv ib nqe ntawm tus tubtxib Povlauj cov ntawv sau uas Povlauj tsis yog tsuas txhais “the daily” tias yog kev teev dab teev mlom xwb, tiamsis tseem yog nqe uas qhia tias cov uas tsis txais txoj kev hlub rau qhov tseeb, yuav txais kev dag ntxias muaj hwjchim loj. Kev lees txais “the daily” ua ib lub cim ntawm Khetos txoj hauj lwm qhuab qhia hauv lub chaw dawb huv, uas yog txoj kev txhais uas los ntawm cov timtswv uas raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj ceeb tsheej, yog lub cim ntawm cov nyob hauv Adventism uas tsis muaj txoj kev ncaj ncees txaus uas yuav faib kom raug lo lus ntawm qhov tseeb, thiab yog li ntawd twb raug teem tseg lawm kom txais kev dag ntxias muaj hwjchim loj.
I do not want to sidetrack the point we are seeking to identify. That point is that the “seven times” that is identified in the same vision where “the daily” is located has been hidden by human hands, though it remains in plain sight. This was simply an easy example of how a human translation error made long centuries ago, that is thereafter manipulated in human minds by angels that were expelled from heaven, is used today at this crucial time just before the final crisis at the end of the world, to blind minds to truth that is actually in plain sight.
Kuv tsis xav tig qhov ntsiab lus uas peb tab tom nrhiav kom paub ntawd mus rau lwm txoj kev. Qhov ntsiab lus ntawd yog tias “xya lub sijhawm” uas raug qhia tseg hauv tib lub zeem muag uas muaj “qhov txi niaj hnub” nyob ntawd, tau raug zais tseg los ntawm tibneeg txhais tes, txawm li cas los xij nws tseem nyob qhib lug rau qhov muag pom. Qhov no tsuas yog ib qho piv txwv yooj yim txog qhov uas ib qho kev yuam kev hauv tibneeg kev txhais lus uas tau tshwm sim ntau pua xyoo dhau los, uas tom qab ntawd raug cov timtswv uas raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj ceeb tsheej tswj thiab khoov hauv tibneeg lub siab, raug siv niaj hnub no rau lub sijhawm tseem ceeb no ua ntej qhov kev kub ntxhov kawg ntawm ntiajteb kawg, kom ua rau tibneeg lub siab dig muag rau qhov tseeb uas qhov tseeb twb nyob qhib lug rau qhov muag pom lawm.
In the 1910 time period the rebellion of “the daily” was just getting under way, W. W. Prescott and A. G. Daniells were spearheading the satanic work of rejecting the foundational understanding of “the daily.” The following article is a letter from that very time, where Sister White addresses the satanic view that “the daily” in the book of Daniel represents Christ’s sanctuary work. At that time the two men were pushing the idea of going into the old pioneer books and changing the pioneer understanding to their new satanic definition. It is my hope that we can exercise integrity as we read the article.
Nyob rau lub caij nyoog xyoo 1910, thaum txoj kev ntxeev siab txog “the daily” nyuam qhuav pib tshwm sim, W. W. Prescott thiab A. G. Daniells tab tom coj ua tus thawj hauv txoj hauj lwm Xatas uas tsis lees txais txoj kev to taub hauv paus ntsiab lus txog “the daily.” Tsab xov xwm hauv qab no yog ib tsab ntawv los ntawm lub sijhawm ntawd tiag tiag, uas Muam White hais txog txoj kev xav uas yog ntawm Xatas tias “the daily” hauv phau Daniel sawv cev rau Khetos txoj hauj lwm hauv lub tuam tsev teev ntuj saum ntuj. Lub sijhawm ntawd, ob tug txivneej no tab tom txhawb lub tswv yim kom rov mus rau hauv cov phau ntawv qub ntawm cov pioneer thiab hloov lawv txoj kev to taub ntawm cov pioneer mus rau lawv txoj kev txhais tshiab uas yog ntawm Xatas. Kuv cia siab tias peb yuav xyaum coj ncaj ncees thaum peb nyeem tsab xov xwm no.
“At this stage of our experience we are not to have our minds drawn away from the special light given [us] to consider at the important gathering of our conference. And there was Brother Daniells, whose mind the enemy was working; and your mind and Elder Prescott’s mind were being worked by the angels that were expelled from heaven. Satan’s work was to divert your minds that jots and tittles should be brought in which the Lord did not inspire you to bring in. They were not essential. But this meant much to the cause of truth. And the ideas of your minds, if you could be drawn away to jots or tittles, is a work of Satan’s devising. To correct little things in the books written, you suppose would be doing a great work. But I am charged, Silence is eloquence.
“Nyob rau theem no ntawm peb tej kev paub no, peb tsis tsim nyog cia peb lub siab raug rub kom tig mus deb ntawm txoj kev kaj tshwjxeeb uas tau muab [rau peb] los xav txog hauv lub rooj sib sau tseem ceeb ntawm peb lub koom txoos. Thiab muaj Tij Laug Daniells, uas tus yeeb ncuab tab tom ua haujlwm rau hauv nws lub siab; thiab koj lub siab thiab Txwj Laus Prescott lub siab kuj raug cov timtswv uas raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj los ua haujlwm rau. Xatas txoj haujlwm yog kom hloov nej lub siab kom txhob tsom rau qhov tseem ceeb, xwv kom tej qhov me me thiab tej ntawv me me raug coj los nkag, yam uas tus Tswv tsis tau tshoov nej kom coj los. Tej ntawd tsis yog yam tseem ceeb. Los qhov no muaj nqis heev rau qhov ua num ntawm qhov tseeb. Thiab yog hais tias nej lub siab raug rub mus rau tej qhov me me lossis tej ntawv me me xwb, ces qhov ntawd yog ib txoj haujlwm uas Xatas tau npaj tseg. Nej xav hais tias kev kho tej yam me me hauv cov phau ntawv uas twb sau lawm yuav yog ua ib txoj haujlwm loj heev. Tiamsis kuv raug txib hais tias, Kev ntsiag to yog kev hais lus muaj hwjchim.”
“I am to say, Stop your picking flaws. If this purpose of the devil could only be carried out, then [it] appears to you [that] your work would be considered as most wonderful in conception. It was the enemy’s plan to get all the supposed objectionable features where all classes of minds did not agree.
“Kuv raug txib kom hais tias, Tsum nej tsis txhob nrhiav qhov txhaum ntxiv lawm. Yog tias lub hom phiaj no ntawm dab ntxwg nyoog tsuas yog ua tiav tau xwb, ces [yam ntawd] zoo li tshwm rau nej [tias] nej txoj hauj lwm yuav raug suav hais tias yog yam uas zoo kawg tshaj plaws hauv kev xav tsim. Nws yog tus yeeb ncuab txoj kev npaj kom coj tag nrho tej yam uas xav tias tsis tsim nyog ntawd los tso rau qhov chaw uas txhua pawg neeg lub siab tsis pom zoo.”
“And what then? The very work that pleases the devil would come to pass. There would be a representation given to the outsiders not of our faith just what would suit them, that would develop traits of character which would cause great confusion and occupy the golden moments which should be used zealously to bring the great message before the people. The presentations upon any subject we have worked upon could not all harmonize, and the results would be to confuse the minds of believers and unbelievers. This is the very thing that Satan had planned that should take place—anything that could be magnified as a disagreement.
“Ces yog dab tsi ntxiv? Txoj hauj lwm ntawd uas ua rau dab ntxwg nyoog txaus siab heev yuav tshwm sim. Yuav muaj ib yam kev sawv cev muab rau cov neeg sab nraud, tsis yog hais txog peb txoj kev ntseeg raws nraim li ntawd, tiamsis yog yam uas yuav haum rau lawv xwb; thiab qhov ntawd yuav txhim kho tej yam cwj pwm uas yuav ua rau muaj kev ntxhov siab loj thiab yuav noj tseg cov sij hawm kub uas tsim nyog yuav tsum siv nrog kev kub siab los coj txoj xov loj ntawd los rau ntawm cov neeg. Cov lus nthuav qhia hais txog txhua yam ntsiab lus uas peb tau ua hauj lwm rau lawm yuav tsis muaj peev xwm sib haum txhua yam, thiab qhov tshwm sim yuav yog ua rau cov neeg ntseeg thiab cov tsis ntseeg lub siab ntxhov thiab tsis meej pem. Qhov no yog yam uas Xatas twb tau npaj tseg kom yuav tshwm sim—txhua yam uas yuav raug nthuav kom loj hlob tau zoo li ib qho kev tsis sib haum xeeb.”
“Read Ezekiel, chapter 28. Now, here is a grand work, where strange spirits can figure. But the Lord has a work to [be] done to save perishing souls; and the places which Satan, disguised, could fill in, bringing confusion into our ranks, he will do to perfection, and all those little differences will become enlarged, prominent.
“Nyeem Exekhee, tshooj 28. Tam sim no, ntawm no muaj ib txoj hauj lwm loj, uas tej ntsuj plig txawv txawv yuav tuaj yeem ua feem nyob hauv. Tiamsis tus Tswv muaj ib txoj hauj lwm uas yuav tsum [tau] ua kom cawm tau cov ntsuj plig tab tom yuav piam; thiab tej chaw uas Xatas, thaum nws zais nws tus kheej, yuav nkag los puv tau, ua rau peb cov qeb sawv ntxhov, nws yuav ua kom tiav npo, thiab tag nrho tej kev sib txawv me me ntawd yuav loj hlob, tshwm meej nrov ncha.”
“And I was shown from the first that the Lord had given neither Elders Daniells nor Prescott the burden of this work. Should Satan’s wiles be brought in, should this “Daily” be such a great matter as to be brought in to confuse minds and hinder the advancement of the work at this important period of time? It should not, whatever may be. This subject should not be introduced, for the spirit that would be brought in would be forbidding, and Lucifer is watching every movement. Satanic agencies would commence his work and there would be confusion brought into our ranks. You have no call to hunt up the difference of opinion that is not a testing question; but your silence is eloquence. I have the matter all plainly before me. If the devil could involve any one of our own people on these subjects, as he has proposed to do, Satan’s cause would triumph. Now the work without delay is to be taken up and not a [difference] of opinion expressed.
“Thiab txij thaum chiv thawj kuv twb raug qhia lawm tias tus Tswv tsis tau muab lub nra ntawm txoj hauj lwm no rau Txwj Laus Daniells los sis Prescott li. Puas yuav cia Xatas tej tswv yim dag ntxias raug coj los nkag, puas yuav cia lo lus “Daily” no dhau los ua ib yam tseem ceeb loj npaum li ntawd kom raug coj los ua rau tej siab ntxhov thiab thaiv kev ua hauj lwm kom txhob vam meej nyob rau lub sijhawm tseem ceeb no? Tsis tsim nyog li, txawm yuav yog li cas los xij. Tsis tsim nyog muab zaj lus no los tsa tawm, rau qhov tus ntsuj plig uas yuav raug coj los nkag yuav yog tus txwv tsis pub, thiab Lusifaw tab tom saib txhua txoj kev txav. Tej quab yuam uas yog Xatas li yuav pib nws txoj hauj lwm, thiab kev ntxhov siab yuav raug coj los rau hauv peb cov qib. Nej tsis muaj kev hu kom mus nrhiav qhov sib txawv ntawm kev xav uas tsis yog ib lo lus nug sim tib neeg; tiam sis nej qhov uas nyob ntsiag to ntawd yog kev hais lus muaj zog. Kuv pom txhua yam teeb meem no meej nthuav nyob ntawm kuv xub ntiag. Yog dab ntxwg nyoog yuav cuam tshuam tau ib tug twg hauv peb haiv neeg ntawm cov ntsiab lus no, raws li nws tau npaj siab yuav ua, Xatas tes dej num yuav yeej. Tam sim no, txoj hauj lwm yuav tsum raug txais los ua yam tsis txhob ncua, thiab tsis txhob hais tawm ib qho [kev sib txawv] ntawm kev xav li.”
“Satan would inspire those men who have gone out from us to unite with evil angels and retard our work on unimportant questions, and what rejoicing [there] would be in the camp of the enemy. Press together, press together. Let every difference be buried. Our work now is to devote all our physical and brain-nerve power to put these differences out of the way, and all harmonize. If Satan could with his great unsanctified wisdom be permitted to get the least hold, [he would rejoice].
“Xatas yuav tshoov siab rau cov neeg ntawd uas tau tawm ntawm peb mus kom koom nrog cov tim tswv phem thiab thaiv peb txoj hauj lwm vim tej lus nug uas tsis tseem ceeb, thiab yuav muaj kev zoo siab npaum li cas [nyob ntawd] hauv lub yeej ntawm tus yeeb ncuab. Cia nej sib nias los ua ke, sib nias los ua ke. Cia txhua qhov kev txawv txav raug faus tseg. Tam sim no peb txoj hauj lwm yog muab tag nrho peb lub cev lub zog thiab lub hlwb-ntshav hlab zog fij rau kev tshem tej kev txawv no kom ploj ntawm txoj kev, thiab kom sawv daws sib haum xeeb. Yog Xatas, nrog nws txoj kev txawj ntse loj uas tsis raug ua kom dawb huv, raug tso cai kom tau tsuas yog qhov tuav me tshaj plaws xwb, [nws yuav zoo siab].”
“Now, when I saw how you were working, my mind took in the whole situation and the results if you should go forward and give the parties that have left us the least chance to bring confusion into our ranks. Your lack of wisdom would be just what Satan would have it. Your loud proclamation was not under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. I was instructed to say to you that your picking flaws in the writings of men that have been led of God is not inspired of God. And if this is the wisdom that Elder Daniells would give to the people, by no means give him an official position, for he cannot reason from cause to effect. Your silence on this subject is your wisdom. Now, everything like picking flaws in the publications of men who are not alive is not the work God has given any of you to do. For if these men—Elders Daniells and Prescott—had followed the directions given in working the cities, there would have been many, very many, convinced of the truth and converted, able men that [now] are in positions where they never will be reached.
“Tam sim no, thaum kuv pom nej ua hauj lwm li cas, kuv lub siab nkag siab tag nrho qhov xwm txheej thiab cov txiaj ntsig uas yuav tshwm sim yog nej tseem yuav mus ntxiv thiab pub rau cov pab neeg uas tau ncaim ntawm peb lawm txawm yog ib nyuag sijhawm xwb los coj kev ntxhov siab los rau hauv peb cov qeb. Nej qhov tsis muaj tswvyim ntawd yeej yog yam Xatas xav kom muaj ntag. Nej txoj kev tshaj tawm nrov ncha ntawd tsis yog nyob hauv tus Vaj Ntsuj Plig Dawb Huv txoj kev tshoov siab. Kuv raug qhuab ntuas kom hais rau nej tias, nej txoj kev xaiv nrhiav qhov txhaum hauv cov ntawv sau ntawm cov neeg uas Vajtswv tau coj lawm tsis yog yam uas tau txais kev tshoov siab los ntawm Vajtswv. Thiab yog hais tias qhov no yog yam tswvyim uas Txwj Laus Daniells yuav muab rau haiv neeg, ces tsis txhob muab ib txoj hauj lwm nom tswv rau nws hlo li, rau qhov nws tsis muaj peev xwm txiav txim los ntawm qhov ua rau mus txog qhov tshwm sim. Nej txoj kev ntsiag to txog zaj no yog nej txoj kev tswvyim. Tam sim no, txhua yam uas zoo li xaiv nrhiav qhov txhaum hauv cov ntaub ntawv luam tawm ntawm cov neeg uas tsis muaj sia nyob lawm tsis yog tes dej num uas Vajtswv tau muab rau nej ib tug twg ua. Rau qhov yog cov txiv neej no—Txwj Laus Daniells thiab Prescott—tau ua raws li cov lus qhuab qhia uas tau muab hais tseg rau kev ua hauj lwm hauv cov nroog, ces yeej yuav muaj coob leej, coob leej heev, raug qhuab ntuas kom lees paub qhov tseeb thiab hloov siab lees txim, yog cov neeg muaj peev xwm uas [tam sim no] nyob hauv tej txoj hauj lwm uas tom qab no lawv yuav tsis raug mus cuag li.”
“All the world is to be regarded as one great family. And when you have such a fountain of knowledge to draw from, why have you left the world to perish for years with the testimonies given by our Lord Jesus Christ? True religion teaches us to regard every man and woman as a person to whom we can do good.
“Tag nrho lub ntiajteb no yuav tsum raug suav tias yog ib tsevneeg loj tibsi. Thiab thaum nej muaj ib qhov chaw txhawv ntawm kev paub zoo li ntawd uas nej yuav txawb tau los ntawm, ua cas nej thiaj cia lub ntiajteb puas tsuaj mus tau ntau xyoo nrog tej lus timkhawv uas peb tus Tswv Yexus Khetos tau muab tseg? Kev ntseeg tseeb qhia peb kom saib txhua tus txivneej thiab pojniam tias yog ib tug neeg uas peb yuav ua tau zoo rau nws.
“This has been in print many years: ‘A Balanced Mind,’ testimony to Elder Andrews. The mind may be cultivated to become a power to know when to speak and what burdens to take up and to bear, for Christ is your teacher. And I feared greatly for you [when I saw you] exalting your wisdom and pursuing a course to bring in differences of opinion. The Lord calls for wise men who can hold their peace when it [is] wisdom for them to do so. If you would be a whole man, you need sanctification through Jesus Christ. Now there is a work just started, and let wisdom be seen in every minister, in every president of [a] conference. But here was a work for you to take hold of years ago where you were needed to lift your voice for this very work. Christ gave all His people special directions what they shall do and the things they shall not do. And there is a little time left us to work out the righteousness of the Lord. You can understand the way of the Lord. I saw your purpose of carrying things after your own devising after you were placed as president. You had thought you would do wonderful things, which would be a work God had not placed in your hands to do. Now, your work is not to oppress but to release every necessity possible if the Lord has accepted you to serve. But you have very early given evidence that wisdom and sanctified judgment have not been manifested by you. You blazed out matters that would not be received unless the Lord should give light.
“Qhov no twb raug luam tawm tau ntau xyoo lawm: ‘Lub Siab Xav Uas Muaj Kev Sib Npaug,’ lus tim khawv rau Txwj Laus Andrews. Lub siab yuav raug cob qhia kom dhau los ua ib lub hwj chim paub tias yuav hais thaum twg thiab yuav ris cov nra twg thiab yuav nqa lawv li cas, vim Khetos yog koj tus Xibfwb. Thiab kuv tau ntshai kawg rau koj [thaum kuv pom koj] tsa koj tus kheej txoj kev txawj ntse siab thiab taug ib txoj kev kom coj kev sib txawv ntawm kev xav los. Tus Tswv hu cov neeg txawj ntse uas paub nyob ntsiag to thaum ntawd [yog] kev txawj ntse rau lawv ua li ntawd. Yog koj yuav ua ib tug neeg tiav txhij, koj yuav tsum tau kev dawb huv los ntawm Yexus Khetos. Nim no muaj ib txoj hauj lwm nyuam qhuav pib xwb, thiab cia kev txawj ntse tshwm hauv txhua tus xibhwb, hauv txhua tus thawj tswj hwm ntawm [ib] rooj sab laj. Tab sis ntawm no muaj ib txoj hauj lwm uas koj tsim nyog tau los tuav ntau xyoo dhau los uas koj raug xav tau kom tsa koj lub suab rau txoj hauj lwm no ntag. Khetos tau muab tej lus qhia tshwj xeeb rau tag nrho Nws haiv neeg hais txog yam lawv yuav tsum ua thiab yam uas lawv yuav tsum tsis txhob ua. Thiab tshuav me ntsis sijhawm rau peb ua tiav Tus Tswv txoj kev ncaj ncees. Koj yeej to taub Tus Tswv txoj kev. Kuv tau pom koj lub hom phiaj xav coj tej xwm txheej mus raws li qhov koj tus kheej npaj tseg tom qab koj raug tsa los ua thawj tswj hwm. Koj tau xav tias koj yuav ua tau tej yam loj kawg nkaus, uas yuav yog ib txoj hauj lwm uas Vajtswv tsis tau muab tso rau hauv koj txhais tes kom ua. Nim no, koj txoj hauj lwm tsis yog los tsim txom tiam sis los tso dim txhua yam kev tsim nyog raws li ua tau yog Tus Tswv tau txais koj los ua haujlwm. Tab sis thaum ntxov heev koj twb muab pov thawj lawm tias kev txawj ntse thiab kev txiav txim siab uas raug dawb huv tsis tau tshwm sim hauv koj li. Koj tau nthuav tej xwm txheej tawm los uas yuav tsis raug txais yuav tshwj tsis yog Tus Tswv yuav muab txoj kev kaj.”
“I have been instructed that such hasty movements should not have [been] made [such] as selecting you as president of the conference even another year. But the Lord forbids any more such hasty transactions until the matter is brought before the Lord in prayer; and as you have had the message come to you that the work of the Lord resting upon the president is a most solemn responsibility, you had no moral right to blaze out as you did upon the subject of the ‘Daily’ and suppose your influence would decide the question. There was Elder Haskell, who has carried the heavy responsibilities, and there is Elder Irwin and several men I might mention who have the heavy responsibilities.
“Kuv tau raug qhuab qhia tias tej kev txav nrawm nrawm zoo li ntawd tsis tsim nyog tau ua, xws li xaiv koj los ua tus thawj tswj hwm ntawm rooj sablaj ib xyoos ntxiv thiab. Tiamsis tus Tswv txwv tsis pub muaj kev txiav txim nrawm nrawm zoo li ntawd ntxiv lawm mus txog thaum coj qhov teeb meem no los rau ntawm tus Tswv hauv kev thov Vajtswv; thiab vim hais tias twb muaj lus ceeb toom los txog koj lawm tias tes haujlwm ntawm tus Tswv uas nyob saum tus thawj tswj hwm yog ib lub luag haujlwm dawb huv thiab hnyav heev, koj tsis muaj cai raws li kev ncaj ncees los kub siab tawm li koj tau ua txog zaj lus ntawm ‘Daily’ thiab xav tias koj lub hwjchim yuav txiav txim tau lo lus nug ntawd. Tseem muaj Txwj Laus Haskell, uas tau ris cov luag haujlwm hnyav, thiab tseem muaj Txwj Laus Irwin thiab ob peb tug txivneej ntxiv uas kuv yuav hais npe tau, uas muaj cov luag haujlwm hnyav ntawd.”
“Where was your respect for the men of age? What authority could you exercise without taking all the responsible men to weigh the matter? But let us now investigate the matter. We must now reconsider whether it is the Lord’s judgment, in the face of the work that has been neglected, of showing your zeal to carry the work even another year. If you should carry the work another year with the help that shall unite with you, there should be a change take place in you and Elder Prescott. And humble your own hearts before God. The Lord will have to see in you a showing of a different experience, for if ever men needed to be reconverted at this present [time], it [is] Elder Daniells and Elder Prescott.
“Nej txoj kev hwm rau cov txivneej laus nyob qhov twg? Nej yuav siv tau txoj cai dab tsi yog tsis coj txhua tus txivneej uas muaj lub luag haujlwm los tshuaj xyuas qhov teeb meem no? Tiamsis nimno cia peb tshawb xyuas qhov teeb meem no. Nimno peb yuav tsum rov xav dua seb puas yog tus Tswv txoj kev txiav txim, nyob rau hauv lub ntsej muag ntawm txoj hauj lwm uas twb raug tsis quav ntsej lawm, kom qhia nej txoj kev kub siab los ris txoj hauj lwm ntawd mus ntxiv ib xyoos ntxiv. Yog nej yuav ris txoj hauj lwm ntawd ntxiv ib xyoos nrog txoj kev pab uas yuav koom tes nrog nej, ces yuav tsum muaj ib qho kev hloov tshwm sim hauv nej thiab hauv Txwj Laug Prescott. Thiab cia li txo nej lub siab ntawm nej tus kheej rau ntawm Vajtswv xub ntiag. Tus Tswv yuav tsum pom nyob hauv nej ib qho kev qhia txog ib txoj kev paub tshiab txawv dua, rau qhov yog muaj ib zaug twg uas cov neeg yuav tsum raug hloov dua siab tshiab dua tshiab nyob rau lub sijhawm no, ces yog Txwj Laug Daniells thiab Txwj Laug Prescott.”
“Seven men should be chosen that are men of wisdom and through the working of the grace of God [give] evidence [of] a reconversion. For any men who are so blinded that they cannot reason from cause to effect, that they would ignore the men who have borne the responsibilities of the work and these presidents of conferences, [that] men [who] carry the work for over two years should be disregarded and such an impulsive consequence take place that men would neglect the very work kept before them for years—work the cities—and no, or but very little, attention [be] given to the old men for counsel, but proclaim the things they choose to give the people, bears its own testimony of the unsafety of the men to be entrusted with such a grand and wonderful work.
“Yuav tsum xaiv xya tug txivneej uas yog cov txivneej muaj tswvyim, thiab uas los ntawm txoj haujlwm ntawm Vajtswv txoj kev tshav ntuj [muab] pov thawj [ntawm] ib txoj kev tig rov los tshiab. Rau qhov yog muaj ib co txivneej dig muag kawg li uas lawv tsis txawj xav txij ntawm qhov ua rau mus txog qhov tshwm sim, uas lawv yuav tsis quav ntsej cov txivneej uas tau ris lub luag haujlwm ntawm tes haujlwm no thiab cov thawj tswj hwm ntawm cov koom txoos no, [uas] cov txivneej [uas] tau nqa tes haujlwm no dhau ob xyoos yuav raug saib tsis taus, thiab muaj ib qho kev txiav txim siab kub siab li ntawd tshwm sim uas cov txivneej yuav tsis quav ntsej tes haujlwm uas twb muab khaws cia rau ntawm lawv xub ntiag tau ntau xyoo lawm—tes haujlwm hauv cov nroog—thiab tsis muaj, lossis tsuas muaj tsawg kawg nkaus, kev mloog lus rau cov txivneej laus kom tau tswv yim, tiam sis tshaj tawm tej yam uas lawv xaiv los muab rau cov neeg, ces qhov ntawd yeej ua timkhawv ntawm nws tus kheej txog qhov tsis muaj kev nyab xeeb ntawm cov txivneej uas yuav raug tso siab rau nrog ib tes haujlwm loj thiab txaus kawg no.
“Christ is not dead. He will never suffer His work to be carried on in this strange way. Let the books alone. If any change is essential, God will have the harmony in that change consistent, but when a message has been entrusted to men with the large responsibilities involved, [God] demands faithfulness that will work by love and purify the soul. Elders Daniells and Prescott both need reconversion. A strange work has come in, and it is not in harmony with the work Christ came to our world to do; and all who are truly converted will work the works of Christ.
“Khetos tsis tuag. Nws yuav tsis pub kom Nws tes dej num raug coj mus ua raws li txoj kev txawv no li. Cia cov ntawv ntawd nyob twj ywm. Yog muaj ib qho kev hloov twg uas tseem ceeb tiag, Vajtswv yuav ua kom muaj kev sib haum nyob hauv qhov kev hloov ntawd kom phim raws li qhov tsim nyog, tiam sis thaum ib txoj xov tau muab tso siab rau tibneeg nrog tej luag hauj lwm loj uas nrog los, [Vajtswv] thov kom muaj kev ncaj ncees uas yuav ua hauj lwm los ntawm txoj kev hlub thiab ntxuav tus ntsuj plig kom dawb huv. Cov txwj laus Daniells thiab Prescott nkawd ob leeg puav leej yuav tsum hloov dua siab tshiab dua. Ib txoj hauj lwm txawv txawv twb nkag los lawm, thiab nws tsis sib haum nrog tes dej num uas Khetos tau los rau peb lub ntiaj teb no ua; thiab txhua tus uas hloov siab los ntseeg tiag tiag yuav ua tej hauj lwm uas yog Khetos tej hauj lwm.”
“We are everyone [to] work out the work which shall glorify the Father. We have come to the crisis—either to conform to the character of Jesus Christ right in this preparatory time or not attempt [it]. Elder Daniells, [you are not] to feel at liberty to let your voice be heard on high as you have done under similar circumstances. And understand, the president of a conference is not a ruler. He works in connection with the wise men who occupy the position as presidents whom God has accepted. He has not liberty to meddle with the writings in printed books from the pens that God has accepted. They are no longer to bear sway unless they show less of the ruling, dominating power. The crisis has come, for God will be dishonored.
“Peb sawv daws [yuav tsum] ua tiav txoj hauj lwm uas yuav ua rau Leej Txiv tau koob meej. Peb twb los txog rau lub sij hawm txiav txim siab no lawm—yuav yog ua kom haum raws li tus cwj pwm ntawm Yexus Khetos nyob rau hauv lub sij hawm npaj no kiag, lossis tsis txhob sim [ua li ntawd] li. Txwj Laus Daniells, [koj tsis yog] yuav xav tias koj muaj kev ywj pheej cia koj lub suab raug hnov nrov nrov saum siab raws li koj tau ua nyob rau hauv tej xwm txheej zoo ib yam no. Thiab nej yuav tsum to taub tias, tus thawj tswj hwm ntawm ib lub koom txoos rooj sab laj tsis yog ib tug kav. Nws ua hauj lwm nrog kev sib txuas nrog cov neeg txawj ntse uas nyob hauv txoj hauj lwm ua thawj tswj hwm uas Vajtswv tau lees txais. Nws tsis muaj kev ywj pheej los cuam tshuam nrog tej ntaub ntawv uas sau rau hauv cov phau ntawv luam tawm los ntawm tej cwj mem uas Vajtswv tau lees txais. Lawv tsis tsim nyog muaj hwj chim kav ntxiv lawm tsuas yog lawv qhia tawm kom tsawg dua txog lub hwj chim kav tswj, tswj hwm lwm tus. Lub sij hawm txiav txim siab twb los txog lawm, rau qhov Vajtswv yuav raug thuam tsis taus npe.”
“How does the Lord look upon the unworked cities? Christ is in heaven. Now its acknowledgment is to be, ‘There is no kingly rule. And now is the crisis of this world. Now I am the Power to save or to destroy. Now is the time when the destiny of all is in My hands. I have given My life to save the world. And “I, if I be lifted up,” the saving grace I shall impart will prove that all who will be fashioned after the divine similitude and will be one with Me shall work as I work with My power of redeeming grace.’ Whoever will, [let him] take hold with his brethren to do the work given them to do when in responsible places under the counsel the Lord gives, and seek most earnestly to work in complete harmony with Him who so loved the world He gave His life a full sacrifice for the saving of the world. I speak to our ministers, that as they enter upon the work in our cities let there be a calm sacredness attending the ministry of the Word. We cannot make the proper impression upon the minds of the people if we . . . [Lower third of this page left blank.]
“Tus Tswv saib tej nroog uas tsis tau ua haujlwm rau li cas? Khetos nyob saum ntuj. Tam sim no yuav tsum muaj kev lees paub li no tias, ‘Tsis muaj txoj cai kav ua vajntxwv lawm. Thiab tam sim no yog lub sijhawm txiav txim ntawm lub ntiajteb no. Tam sim no Kuv yog lub Hwjchim cawm los yog rhuav tshem. Tam sim no yog lub sijhawm uas txoj hmoo ntawm txhua tus nyob hauv Kuv txhais tes. Kuv twb muab Kuv txoj sia los cawm lub ntiajteb.

“I copy from my Diary. The truth as it is in Jesus—talk it, pray it, believe every word in its simplicity. What would you gain if mistakes are brought before the men who have departed from the faith and given heed to seducing spirits, men who were not long ago with us in the faith? Will you stand on the devil’s side? Give your attention to the unworked fields. A world-wide work is before us. I was given representations of John Kellogg.

Kuv tau txais tej yam sawv cev hais txog John Kellogg.”
“A very attractive personage was representing the ideas of the specious arguments that he was presenting, sentiments different from the genuine Bible truth. And those who are hungering and thirsting after something new were advancing ideas [so specious] that Elder Prescott was in great danger. Elder Daniells was in great danger [of] becoming wrapped in a delusion that if these sentiments could be spoken everywhere it would be as a new world.
“Ib tug neeg ntxim nyiam heev tab tom sawv cev rau tej tswv yim ntawm cov lus sib cav uas zoo li muaj tseeb uas nws tab tom nthuav tawm, tej kev xav uas txawv ntawm qhov tseeb tiag ntawm Vajlugkub. Thiab cov uas tab tom tshaib plab thiab nqhis dej nrhiav ib yam tshiab tau tab tom txhawb tej tswv yim [uas zoo li muaj tseeb ua luaj] uas ua rau Txwj Laus Prescott nyob rau hauv kev phom sij loj heev. Txwj Laus Daniells kuj nyob rau hauv kev phom sij loj heev [ntawm] kev raug qhwv rau hauv ib txoj kev dag ntxias tias yog tej kev xav no yuav raug hais tawm mus thoob plaws txhua qhov chaw ces nws yuav zoo li yog ib lub ntiaj teb tshiab.”
“Yes, it would, but while their minds were thus absorbed I was shown that Brother Daniells and Brother Prescott were weaving into their experience sentiments of a spiritual[istic] appearance and drawing our people to beautiful sentiments that would deceive, if possible, the very elect. I have to trace with my pen [the fact] that these brethren would see defects in their delusive ideas that would place the truth in an uncertainty; and [yet] they [would] stand out as [if they had] great spiritual discernment. Now I am to tell them [that] when I was shown this matter, when Elder Daniells was lifting up his voice like a trumpet in advocating his ideas of the ‘Daily,’ the after results were presented. Our people were becoming confused. I saw the result, and then there were given me cautions that if Elder Daniells without respect to the outcome should thus be impressed and let himself believe he was under the inspiration of God, skepticism would be sown among our ranks everywhere, and we should be where Satan would carry his messages. Set unbelief and skepticism would be sown in human minds, and strange crops of evil would take the place of truth.—Ms 67, 1910, 1–8. Manuscript Release, volume 20, 17–22.
“Yog lawm, yeej yuav yog li ntawd tiag, tiam sis thaum lawv lub siab tab tom raug nqus mus li ntawd, kuv tau raug qhia tias Tij Laug Daniells thiab Tij Laug Prescott tab tom xaws ntxig rau hauv lawv tej kev paub tej kev xav uas muaj yam ntxwv zoo li sab ntsuj plig [spiritualistic], thiab tab tom rub peb haiv neeg los cuag tej kev xav zoo nkauj uas yuav dag ntxias tau, yog ua tau, txawm yog cov raug xaiv los lawm. Kuv yuav tsum siv kuv tus cwj mem sau tseg [qhov tseeb] tias cov tij laug no yuav pom tej qhov yuam kev nyob hauv lawv cov tswv yim dag ntxias uas yuav muab qhov tseeb tso rau hauv ib qho kev tsis paub tseeb; thiab [los] lawv [yuav] sawv tawm zoo li [yuav yog lawv muaj] kev pom sab ntsuj plig loj heev. Nim no kuv yuav tsum hais rau lawv [tias] thaum kuv raug qhia txog zaj teeb meem no, thaum Txwj Laus Daniells tab tom tsa nws lub suab nrov li raj kub lug txhawb nws tej tswv yim hais txog ‘Txhua Hnub,’ cov txiaj ntsig tom qab ntawd twb raug muab nthuav rau kuv lawm. Peb haiv neeg tab tom pib ntxhov siab thiab tsis meej pem. Kuv pom qhov tshwm sim ntawd, thiab tom qab ntawd kuj tau muab tej lus ceeb toom rau kuv tias yog Txwj Laus Daniells, tsis saib txog qhov yuav tshwm sim tom qab, tseem cia kom muaj kev txhawb no saum nws thiab cia nws tus kheej ntseeg tias nws nyob hauv Vajtswv txoj kev tshoov siab, ces kev tsis ntseeg thiab kev ua xyem xyav yuav raug tseb thoob plaws hauv peb tej qib sawv daws, thiab peb yuav poob rau qhov chaw uas Xatas yuav nqa nws tej lus los. Kev tsis ntseeg ruaj khov thiab kev ua xyem xyav yuav raug tseb rau hauv tibneeg lub siab, thiab tej qoob loo phem txawv txav yuav los hloov qhov tseeb chaw.—Ms 67, 1910, 1–8. Manuscript Release, volume 20, 17–22.”
Those that gave the judgment hour cry were given the correct view of “the daily” in the book of Daniel. Through the human hands which translated the book of Daniel, and thereafter by human beings that were being directed by angels that were expelled from heaven, the correct understanding of “the daily” has become hidden, though it is in plain sight. In Daniel when the word translated as “the daily” occurs, it is not to include the added human word “sacrifice.” In verse thirteen of Daniel eight we find one of the five times where this occurs in the book of Daniel. In that very verse, the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six is also identified, but through the same type of humanistic manipulation it has been hidden in plain sight.
Cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj kev qw txog lub sijhawm txiav txim tau txais txoj kev to taub raug txog “qhov niaj hnub” hauv phau ntawv Daniyee. Los ntawm tej tes neeg uas tau txhais phau ntawv Daniyee, thiab tom qab ntawd los ntawm tej tibneeg uas raug tej timtswv uas raug ntiab tawm saum ntuj ceeb tsheej coj kev, txoj kev to taub uas raug txog “qhov niaj hnub” twb raug muab zais lawm, txawm yog nws nyob rau qhov pom tseeb. Hauv Daniyee, thaum lo lus uas txhais ua “qhov niaj hnub” tshwm sim, nws tsis yog yuav tsum suav nrog lo lus neeg ntxiv tias “kev txi.” Hauv nqe kaum peb ntawm Daniyee yim, peb pom ib zaug ntawm tsib zaug uas qhov no tshwm sim hauv phau ntawv Daniyee. Hauv tib nqe ntawd kiag, “xya zaug” ntawm Leviticus nees nkaum rau kuj raug qhia tseg thiab, tiamsis los ntawm tib yam kev ntxias raws li tibneeg txoj kev xav, nws twb raug muab zais rau qhov pom tseeb lawm.
We will look at this fact in the next article.
Peb yuav saib qhov tseeb no hauv tshooj lus tom ntej.
