It has been established upon several witnesses that in history and in prophecy Rome always comes up eighth and is of the seven. The prophetic riddle of this symbol is part of what the Lion of the tribe of Judah unseals just before the close of probation. Christ never changes, and in the First and Great Disappointments of Millerite history, He revealed a truth which explained the mystery of the disappointment.
Tau raug tsa ruaj khov lawm raws li ntau tus tim khawv tias hauv keeb kwm thiab hauv yav tom ntej qhia tseg, Loos ib txwm sawv los ua tus thib yim thiab yog ib tug ntawm xya tus. Zaj lus piv txwv yaj saub uas nyob hauv lub cim no yog ib feem ntawm yam Tsov Ntxhuav ntawm xeem Yudas qhib lub foob tawm ua ntej lub sij hawm sim neej xaus. Khetos yeej tsis hloov li, thiab hauv thawj zaug thiab loj kawg ntawm kev poob siab hauv keeb kwm Millerite, Nws tau tshwm sim ib txoj kev tseeb uas piav qhia txog qhov tsis meej ntawm txoj kev poob siab ntawd.
After the First Disappointment in Millerite history, He removed His hand from a mistake in some of the figures represented upon the 1843 chart. The mistake represented the prophetic misunderstanding that produced the Disappointment. The Millerites were ultimately led to a series of understandings, which firmly established the starting date of the twenty-three hundred days. With a firm starting point, that was primarily based upon the date of the cross, they then saw the same prophetic evidence that they had been employing to identify 1843, actually identified not only 1844, but the very day of October 22, 1844.
Tom qab Kev Nyuaj Siab Loj thawj zaug hauv keeb kwm cov Millerite, Nws tau thim Nws txhais tes tawm ntawm ib qho yuam kev hauv qee cov lej uas tau sawv cev rau saum daim chart xyoo 1843. Qhov yuam kev ntawd sawv cev rau txoj kev to taub yuam kev txog lus faj lem uas ua rau muaj Kev Nyuaj Siab Loj ntawd. Thaum kawg cov Millerite tau raug coj los txog rau ib theem ntawm ntau yam kev to taub, uas tau ruaj khov tsa hnub pib ntawm ob txhiab peb puas hnub. Muaj ib qho chaw pib ruaj khov, uas feem ntau raug tsim los ntawm hnub ntawm tus ntoo khaub lig, ces lawv thiaj pom tias tib cov pov thawj lus faj lem uas lawv tau siv los txheeb xyoo 1843 ntawd, yeej tsis yog tsuas txheeb tau xyoo 1844 xwb, tiam sis tseem txheeb tau hnub tseeb yog Lub Kaum Hli 22, 1844.
After the second and Great Disappointment, the Lord once again revealed a truth which answered all the prophetic dilemmas created by their incorrect proclamation that October 22, 1844 was the Second Coming of Christ. The Lord opened the subject of the Sanctuary, and its connected truths, and the Great Disappointment was explained.
Tom qab Kev Poob Siab zaum ob thiab loj kawg ntawd, tus Tswv rov qhib ib qho tseeb ntxiv uas teb tau txhua yam teeb meem hauv kev yaj saub uas tau tshwm los ntawm lawv txoj kev tshaj tawm yuam kev hais tias hnub tim 22 Lub Kaum Hli, 1844 yog Khetos txoj Kev Los Zaum Ob. Tus Tswv qhib txog zaj lus ntawm lub Tuam Tsev Dawb Huv, thiab cov tseeb uas txuas nrog nws, thiab Kev Poob Siab Loj ntawd thiaj raug piav meej.
“As a people, we should be earnest students of prophecy; we should not rest until we become intelligent in regard to the subject of the sanctuary, which is brought out in the visions of Daniel and John. This subject sheds great light on our present position and work, and gives us unmistakable proof that God has led us in our past experience. It explains our disappointment in 1844, showing us that the sanctuary to be cleansed was not the earth, as we had supposed, but that Christ then entered into the most holy apartment of the heavenly sanctuary, and is there performing the closing work of his priestly office, in fulfillment of the words of the angel to the prophet Daniel, ‘Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.’
“Raws li ib haiv neeg, peb yuav tsum ua cov neeg kawm tej lus faj lem nrog lub siab kub siab lug; peb yuav tsum tsis txhob so kom txog thaum peb muaj kev nkag siab meej txog zaj lus qhuab qhia ntawm lub chaw dawb huv, uas raug nthuav tawm hauv tej yog toog ntawm Daniyees thiab Yauhas. Zaj lus no ci ntsa iab loj kawg rau peb txoj hauj lwm thiab peb txoj hauj lwm tam sim no, thiab muab tej pov thawj uas tsis txawj yuam kev rau peb tias Vajtswv tau coj peb hauv peb tej kev paub dhau los. Nws piav qhia peb txoj kev chim siab xyoo 1844, qhia rau peb tias lub chaw dawb huv uas yuav raug ntxuav tsis yog lub ntiajteb, raws li peb tau xav tseg, tiam sis yog thaum ntawd Khetos tau nkag mus rau hauv chav dawb huv tshaj plaws ntawm lub chaw dawb huv saum ntuj ceeb tsheej, thiab nyob ntawd Nws tab tom ua txoj hauj lwm kaw xaus ntawm Nws tes num pov thawj, kom raws li tej lus uas tus tim tswv tau hais rau tus yaj saub Daniyees, ‘Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.’”
“Our faith in reference to the messages of the first, second, and third angels was correct. The great way-marks we have passed are immovable. Although the hosts of hell may try to tear them from their foundation, and triumph in the thought that they have succeeded, yet they do not succeed. These pillars of truth stand firm as the eternal hills, unmoved by all the efforts of men combined with those of Satan and his host. We can learn much, and should be constantly searching the Scriptures to see if these things are so. God’s people are now to have their eyes fixed on the heavenly sanctuary, where the final ministration of our great High Priest in the work of the judgment is going forward,—where he is interceding for his people.” Review and Herald, November 27, 1883.
“Peb txoj kev ntseeg hais txog cov lus ntawm tus tim tswv thawj, tus tim tswv thib ob, thiab tus tim tswv thib peb yeej yog qhov tseeb. Cov cim tseem ceeb loj uas peb twb hla dhau los lawm yog yam uas txav tsis taus. Txawm yog cov tub rog ntawm ntuj txiag teb tsaus yuav sim muab tej ntawd rwj tawm ntawm lawv lub hauv paus, thiab zoo siab hauv txoj kev xav tias lawv twb ua tiav lawm los xij, lawv yeej ua tsis tiav. Cov ncej ntawm qhov tseeb no sawv ruaj khov ib yam li cov roob mus ib txhis, tsis txav los ntawm txhua txoj kev siv zog ntawm tib neeg ua ke nrog Xatas thiab nws pab tub rog. Peb kawm tau ntau yam, thiab peb yuav tsum niaj hnub tshawb xyuas Vajlugkub kom pom tias tej no puas yog li ntawd. Nim no Vajtswv haiv neeg yuav tsum tsom lawv ob lub qhov muag rau saum ntuj ceeb tsheej lub chaw dawb huv, qhov uas peb tus Pov Thawj Hlob loj tab tom ua txoj hauj lwm kawg nkaus hauv txoj hauj lwm txiav txim,—qhov uas Nws tab tom thov rau Nws haiv neeg.” Review and Herald, November 27, 1883.
The disappointment of the disciples at the crucifixion was based upon an incorrect understanding of the kingdom which Christ was to establish at the cross. John the Baptist and the apostle Paul’s ministries included the work of identifying that the dispensation of literal Israel and the literal earthly sanctuary had transitioned unto spiritual Israel and the spiritual heavenly sanctuary. The Lion of the tribe of Judah always explains the disappointment to the “wise.” The explanation of the prophetic riddle of Rome being “the eighth, but is of the seven”, is part of the work the Lion of Judah is accomplishing to explain the disappointment of July 18, 2020.
Qhov kev poob siab ntawm cov thwjtim thaum lub sijhawm raug ntsia saum ntoo khaub lig ntawd tau muaj lub hauv paus rau ntawm lawv txoj kev to taub tsis raug txog lub nceeg vaj uas Khetos yuav tsum tsa los ntawm saum ntoo khaub lig. Txoj hauj lwm qhuab qhia ntawm Yauhas uas ua kevcai raus dej thiab tus tubtxib Povlauj kuj muaj nrog rau tes haujlwm ntawm kev txheeb kom paub tias lub sijhawm kev txiav txim ntawm cov Yixayee tiag tiag thiab lub chaw dawb huv hauv ntiajteb tiag tiag tau hloov mus rau cov Yixayee sab ntsuj plig thiab lub chaw dawb huv saum ntuj ceeb tsheej sab ntsuj plig lawm. Tsov Ntxhuav ntawm xeem Yudas ib txwm piav qhia txoj kev poob siab ntawd rau cov “neeg txawj ntse.” Kev piav qhia txog lo lus txhiaj txhais yaj saub uas hais tias Loos yog “tus yim, tiam sis yog los ntawm xya,” yog ib feem ntawm tes haujlwm uas Tsov Ntxhuav ntawm Yudas tab tom ua kom tiav txhawm rau piav qhia txog txoj kev poob siab ntawm Lub Xya hli ntuj 18, 2020.
The Millerites saw Rome as the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy, and they saw the distinction between paganism and papalism, but could not see papal Rome as the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy. Shortly after 1844, the pioneers saw that the United States was the next kingdom of Bible prophecy.
Cov neeg Miller pom Loos yog lub nceeg vaj plaub hauv tej lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub, thiab lawv pom qhov sib txawv ntawm kev pe dab qhuas thiab kev ua papacy, tiam sis lawv tsis tau pom Loos papal yog lub nceeg vaj tsib hauv tej lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub. Tsis ntev tom qab xyoo 1844, cov pioneers pom tias Tebchaws Meskas yog lub nceeg vaj tom ntej hauv tej lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub.
That recognition is represented upon the 1850 pioneer chart, but their ability to recognize the full illustration of the kingdoms of Bible prophecy, as represented in Revelation chapter seventeen, was beyond their ability to comprehend, for they began to wander in the wilderness of Laodicea after their rejection of the “seven times” in 1863.
Qhov kev lees paub ntawd raug sawv cev rau saum daim chart ntawm cov pioneer xyoo 1850, tiam sis lawv lub peev xwm los paub txog daim duab piv txwv tag nrho ntawm tej nceeg vaj hauv Vajlugkub cov lus faj lem, raws li tau sawv cev hauv Tshwm Sim tshooj kaum xya, nyob dhau lawv lub peev xwm nkag siab, rau qhov lawv pib taug kev yuam kev hauv roob moj sab qhua ntawm Laodicea tom qab lawv tsis lees txais “xya sijhawm” xyoo 1863.
“The history of ancient Israel is a striking illustration of the past experience of the Adventist body. God led His people in the advent movement, even as He led the children of Israel from Egypt. In the great disappointment their faith was tested as was that of the Hebrews at the Red Sea. Had they still trusted to the guiding hand that had been with them in their past experience, they would have seen the salvation of God. If all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel’s message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts. A flood of light would have been shed upon the world. Years ago the inhabitants of the earth would have been warned, the closing work completed, and Christ would have come for the redemption of His people.
“Keeb kwm ntawm cov neeg Ixayees thaum ub yog ib qho piv txwv muaj hwj chim heev txog txoj kev paub dhau los yav tag los ntawm pawg Adventist. Vajtswv tau coj Nws haiv neeg nyob hauv kev txav advent, ib yam li Nws tau coj cov me nyuam Ixayees tawm hauv tebchaws Iyi. Hauv txoj kev chim siab loj ntawd lawv txoj kev ntseeg raug sim ib yam li cov Henplais raug sim ntawm Hiav Txwv Liab. Yog lawv tseem tso siab rau tes uas coj lawv, tes uas tau nrog lawv nyob hauv lawv tej kev paub dhau los lawm, lawv yuav tau pom Vajtswv txoj kev cawm seej. Yog txhua tus uas tau sib koom tes ua hauj lwm ntawd hauv xyoo 1844 tau txais zaj lus ntawm tus tim tswv thib peb thiab tshaj tawm nws hauv lub hwj chim ntawm tus Vaj Ntsuj Plig Dawb Huv, tus Tswv yuav tau ua hauj lwm loj kawg nkaus nrog lawv tej kev siv zog. Ib nthwv dej loj ntawm txoj kev kaj yuav tau raug nchuav rau saum lub ntiaj teb. Ntau xyoo dhau los lawm cov neeg nyob hauv ntiaj teb twb yuav tau raug ceeb toom, txoj hauj lwm xaus twb yuav tau ua kom tiav, thiab Khetos twb yuav tau los rau txoj kev txhiv dim ntawm Nws haiv neeg.”
“It was not the will of God that Israel should wander forty years in the wilderness; He desired to lead them directly to the land of Canaan and establish them there, a holy, happy people. But ‘they could not enter in because of unbelief.’ Hebrews 3:19. Because of their backsliding and apostasy they perished in the desert, and others were raised up to enter the Promised Land. In like manner, it was not the will of God that the coming of Christ should be so long delayed and His people should remain so many years in this world of sin and sorrow. But unbelief separated them from God. As they refused to do the work which He had appointed them, others were raised up to proclaim the message. In mercy to the world, Jesus delays His coming, that sinners may have an opportunity to hear the warning and find in Him a shelter before the wrath of God shall be poured out.” The Great Controversy, 458.
“Tsis yog Vajtswv lub siab nyiam kom cov Yixayee yuav tsum taug kev yuam kev plaub caug xyoo hauv tebchaws moj sab qhua; Nws xav coj lawv ncaj qha mus rau lub tebchaws Khana-as thiab tsa lawv nyob ntawd ua ib haiv neeg dawb huv, muaj kev kaj siab lug. Tiamsis, ‘lawv tsis tau nkag mus vim yog kev tsis ntseeg.’ Henplais 3:19. Vim lawv txoj kev thim rov qab thiab kev tso txojkev ntseeg tseg, lawv thiaj tuag puam tsuaj hauv tebchaws moj sab qhua, thiab muaj lwm tus raug tsa sawv los nkag mus rau hauv Lub Tebchaws Uas Tau Cog Tseg. Ib yam nkaus li ntawd, tsis yog Vajtswv lub siab nyiam kom Khetos txoj kev los yuav raug ncua ntev ua luaj thiab kom Nws haiv neeg yuav nyob ntau xyoo ua luaj hauv lub ntiajteb uas muaj kev txhaum thiab kev quaj ntsuag no. Tiamsis kev tsis ntseeg tau cais lawv ntawm Vajtswv mus. Vim lawv tsis kam ua tes haujlwm uas Nws tau tsa cia rau lawv ua, thiaj muaj lwm tus raug tsa sawv los tshaj tawm txoj xov ntawd. Vim txoj kev hlub tshua rau lub ntiajteb, Yexus thiaj ncua Nws txoj kev los, kom cov neeg txhaum thiaj yuav muaj sijhawm hnov lo lus ceeb toom thiab nrhiav tau hauv Nws ib qho chaw nkaum ua ntej Vajtswv txoj kev npau taws yuav raug nchuav los.” The Great Controversy, 458.
James and Ellen White both identified that the movement had transitioned into the movement of Laodicea in 1856, and in the previous passage she identifies that “if all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel’s message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts.” Then she says, “In like manner,” the “backsliding and apostasy” that ancient Israel manifested, caused ancient Israel to “perish in the desert.” The passage is identifying that Laodicean Adventism began to wander in the wilderness in the time period when those who had proclaimed the message of the Midnight Cry were still alive.
Yakaunpaud thiab Ellen White nkawd ob leeg tau qhia meej tias txoj kev txav ntawd twb hloov mus ua txoj kev txav ntawm Laodicea xyoo 1856, thiab hauv nqe lus ua ntej ntawd nws qhia tias, “yog txhua tus uas tau sib koom siab ua hauj lwm hauv txoj hauj lwm ntawd xyoo 1844 tau txais tus tim tswv thib peb txoj xov thiab tshaj tawm nws hauv Vaj Ntsuj Plig Dawb Huv lub hwj chim, tus Tswv yeej yuav tau ua hauj lwm muaj hwj chim heev nrog lawv tej kev siv zog.” Tom qab ntawd nws hais tias, “Ib yam li ntawd,” “kev thim rov qab thiab kev ntxeev txoj kev ntseeg” uas cov Yixayee thaum ub tau nthuav tawm, ua rau cov Yixayee thaum ub “puam tsuaj hauv tebchaws moj sab qhua.” Nqe lus ntawd tab tom qhia tias Laodicean Adventism tau pib taug kev yuam kev hauv tebchaws moj sab qhua hauv lub sijhawm uas cov uas tau tshaj tawm txoj xov ntawm Kev Quaj Thaum Ib Tag Hmo tseem muaj txoj sia nyob.
Today the theologians (the learned) identify various applications for Revelation chapter seventeen, that are either derived from the methodology of futurism that was invented by the Jesuits, or the corrupted theological practices of apostate Protestantism. The symbols of Revelation seventeen, are very simple. We have identified the necessary symbols, so we will return to the kingdoms represented there and align them with the kingdoms of Daniel chapter two, for Jesus always illustrates the end of a thing, with the beginning of a thing.
Niaj hnub no cov neeg kawm vajlugkub txujci (cov txawj ntse) tau txheeb ntau yam kev siv rau Tshwm Sim tshooj kaum xya, uas yog muab los ntawm txoj kev txhais hu ua futurism uas cov Jesuits tau tsim, los yog los ntawm tej kev coj theology uas twb raug ua phem los ntawm Protestantism uas tau thim txoj kev ntseeg lawm. Cov cim hauv Tshwm Sim kaum xya ntawd yooj yim heev. Peb twb txheeb tau cov cim uas tsim nyog lawm, yog li peb yuav rov qab mus rau cov nceeg vaj uas raug sawv cev nyob ntawd thiab muab lawv los phim nrog cov nceeg vaj hauv Daniyees tshooj ob, rau qhov Yexus ib txwm siv qhov pib ntawm ib yam los ua qauv qhia txog qhov kawg ntawm ib yam.
And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. Revelation 17:10–12.
Thiab tseem muaj xya tus vajntxwv: tsib tug twb poob lawm, ib tug tseem nyob, hos tus uas seem tsis tau los txog tam sim no; thiab thaum nws los txog, nws yuav tsum kav nyob ib ntus luv xwb. Thiab tus tsiaj qus uas tau muaj lawm, thiab tsis muaj lawm, nws tus ntawd yog tus thib yim, thiab yog ntawm xya tus ntawd los, thiab nws mus rau kev puas tsuaj. Hos kaum tug kub uas koj tau pom yog kaum tus vajntxwv, uas tseem tsis tau txais ib lub nceeg vaj; tiam sis lawv tau txais hwjchim ua vajntxwv ib teev nrog tus tsiaj qus. Tshwmsim 17:10–12.
In verse three, John was spiritually conveyed to 1798. At that vantage point in history, he was told that there were five kingdoms that had already fallen. Those kingdoms were Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, pagan Rome and papal Rome. William Miller could not unravel this passage in chapter seventeen, for he could not recognize that papal Rome was a distinct kingdom from pagan Rome. Yet the sequence is addressed in chapters twelve and thirteen of Revelation, for the dragon in chapter twelve represented pagan Rome, the beast that came from the sea in chapter thirteen was the papacy and the earth beast is the United States. Sister White identifies all three of these beasts as the dragon, the beast and the false prophet. In providing her testimony she identifies the sequence of the kingdoms, and the sequence agrees with the application we are making of Revelation seventeen.
Hauv nqe peb, Yauhas raug coj mus rau xyoo 1798 hauv sab ntsuj plig. Ntawm qhov chaw sawv ntawd hauv keeb kwm, nws raug qhia tias twb muaj tsib lub nceeg vaj uas twb poob lawm. Cov nceeg vaj ntawd yog Npanpiloo, Medo-Persia, Kili, Loos uas yog kev pe dab mlom, thiab Loos uas yog lub hwj chim papacy. William Miller tsis muaj peev xwm daws tau nqe no hauv tshooj kaum xya, vim nws tsis paub tias Loos papal yog ib lub nceeg vaj txawv ntawm Loos pagan. Txawm li ntawd los, txoj kab txheej txheem no twb raug hais txog hauv Tshwm Sim tshooj kaum ob thiab kaum peb lawm, vim tus zaj hauv tshooj kaum ob sawv cev rau Loos pagan, tus tsiaj nyaum uas tawm hauv hiav txwv los hauv tshooj kaum peb yog papacy, hos tus tsiaj nyaum hauv ntiajteb yog Tebchaws Meskas. Muam White txheeb xyuas tag nrho peb tug tsiaj nyaum no tias yog tus zaj, tus tsiaj nyaum, thiab tus yaj saub cuav. Hauv kev muab nws zaj lus tim khawv, nws qhia meej txog txoj kab txheej txheem ntawm cov nceeg vaj, thiab txoj kab txheej txheem ntawd haum raws li kev siv Tshwm Sim kaum xya uas peb tab tom ua.
“Under the symbols of a great red dragon, a leopard-like beast, and a beast with lamblike horns, the earthly governments which would especially engage in trampling upon God’s law and persecuting His people, were presented to John. The war is carried on till the close of time. The people of God, symbolized by a holy woman and her children, were represented as greatly in the minority. In the last days only a remnant still existed. Of these John speaks as they ‘which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.’
“Nyob hauv qab cov cim ntawm ib tug zaj loj liab, ib tug tsiaj qus zoo li tsov txaij, thiab ib tug tsiaj qus uas muaj kub zoo li yaj, tej tsoom fwv hauv ntiajteb uas yuav tshwj xeeb tshaj yog koom tes hauv kev tsuj hnyo Vajtswv txoj kevcai thiab tsimtxom Nws haivneeg, tau raug nthuav qhia rau Yauhas. Tsov rog no tseem raug coj mus ntxiv mus txog thaum xaus lub sijhawm. Vajtswv haivneeg, uas raug cim los ntawm ib tug pojniam dawb huv thiab nws cov menyuam, raug sawv cev tias muaj tsawg heev piv rau lwm tus. Nyob rau hnub kawg tsuas tshuav ib pawg seem xwb thiaj tseem muaj nyob. Hais txog cov no Yauhas hais tias lawv yog cov uas ‘ceev Vajtswv tej lus txib, thiab muaj Yexus Khetos zaj lus timkhawv.’”
“Through paganism, and then through the Papacy, Satan exerted his power for many centuries in an effort to blot from the earth God’s faithful witnesses. Pagans and papists were actuated by the same dragon spirit. They differed only in that the Papacy, making a pretense of serving God, was the more dangerous and cruel foe. Through the agency of Romanism, Satan took the world captive. The professed church of God was swept into the ranks of this delusion, and for more than a thousand years the people of God suffered under the dragon’s ire. And when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution, John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work. This power, the last that is to wage war against the church and the law of God, was symbolized by a beast with lamblike horns.
“Los ntawm txoj kev pe hawm dab mlom, thiab tom qab ntawd los ntawm txoj kev Kav Tos Liv, Xatas tau siv nws lub hwj chim tau ntau pua xyoo hauv ib qho kev siv zog los rhuav tshem Vajtswv cov tim khawv ncaj ncees tawm hauv ntiaj teb. Cov neeg pe dab pe mlom thiab cov neeg Kav Tos Liv raug tib tug zaj ntsuj plig txhawb. Lawv sib txawv tsuas yog qhov no xwb tias txoj kev Kav Tos Liv, uas ua txuj li tab tom ua haujlwm rau Vajtswv, yog tus yeeb ncuab uas txaus ntshai dua thiab lim hiam dua. Los ntawm txoj kev sawv cev ntawm Romanism, Xatas tau ntes lub ntiaj teb mus ua qhev. Lub koom txoos uas lees tias yog Vajtswv lub tau raug cheb mus rau hauv cov qeb ntawm txoj kev dag ntxias no, thiab ntau tshaj li ib txhiab xyoo Vajtswv haiv neeg tau raug txom nyem nyob hauv tus zaj txoj kev npau taws. Thiab thaum txoj kev Kav Tos Liv, raug txeeb nws lub zog lawm, raug yuam kom tsum tsis txhob tsim txom ntxiv lawm, Yauhas pom ib lub hwj chim tshiab tab tom sawv tuaj los ncha tus zaj lub suab, thiab txuas ntxiv mus ua tib txoj hauj lwm lim hiam thiab hais lus thuam Vajtswv ntawd. Lub hwj chim no, uas yog lub hwj chim kawg uas yuav ua rog tawm tsam lub koom txoos thiab Vajtswv txoj kev cai, tau raug piv txwv los ntawm ib tug tsiaj qus uas muaj ob tug kub zoo li me nyuam yaj.”
“But the stern tracing of the prophetic pencil reveals a change in this peaceful scene. The beast with lamblike horns speaks with the voice of a dragon, and ‘exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him.’ Prophecy declares that he will say to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast, and that “he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads; and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Thus Protestantism follows in the steps of the Papacy.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
“Tiamsis txoj kab kos nruj ntawm tus cwjmem yaj saub qhia tawm tias yuav muaj ib txoj kev hloov hauv daim duab thaj yeeb no. Tus tsiaj qus uas muaj ob tug kub zoo li menyuam yaj hais nrog lub suab ntawm ib tug zaj, thiab ‘siv txhua txoj cai ntawm thawj tus tsiaj qus nyob ntawm nws xub ntiag.’ Yaj saub tshaj tawm tias nws yuav hais rau cov uas nyob saum lub ntiajteb kom lawv ua ib tug duab rau tus tsiaj qus, thiab tias ‘nws yuam kom sawvdaws, tus me thiab tus loj, tus nplua nuj thiab tus pluag, tus dawb thiab tus qhev, txais ib lub cim rau ntawm lawv sab tes xis, los yog rau ntawm lawv hauv pliaj; thiab kom tsis muaj leejtwg yuav tau los yog muag tau, tsuas yog tus uas muaj lub cim, los yog lub npe ntawm tus tsiaj qus, los yog tus lej ntawm nws lub npe xwb.’ Yog li no, Kev Ntseeg Protestant taug raws li cov hneev taw ntawm txoj Kev Kav Papacy.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
In the first paragraph of the last passage, Sister White identifies pagan Rome, papal Rome and the United States as “earthly governments.” In the second paragraph she identifies that the governments were sequential when she says, “through paganism, and then through the Papacy,” and “when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution, John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work.” She does not stop there though, for in the third paragraph she identifies that the United States was to force another kingdom upon the entire world. She says, “The beast with lamblike horns speaks with the voice of a dragon, and ‘exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him.’ Prophecy declares that he will say to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast.”
Hauv thawj nqe ntawm nqe lus kawg ntawd, Muam White qhia txog Loos teev dab mlom, Loos papacy, thiab Tebchaws Meskas tias yog “cov tseem fwv hauv ntiajteb no.” Hauv nqe ob nws qhia tias cov tseem fwv ntawd tshwm los ua ntu zus thaum nws hais tias, “los ntawm kev teev dab mlom, thiab tom qab ntawd los ntawm Papacy,” thiab “thaum Papacy, uas raug txeeb nws lub hwjchim lawm, raug yuam kom tsum tsis txhob tsim txom ntxiv, Yauhas thiaj pom ib lub hwjchim tshiab tabtom sawv los ncha tus zaj lub suab, thiab txuas ntxiv tib yam haujlwm lim hiam thiab thuam Vajtswv.” Tiamsis nws tsis xaus rau ntawd, rau qhov hauv nqe peb nws qhia tias Tebchaws Meskas yuav yuam kom muaj dua ib lub nceeg vaj rau saum tag nrho lub ntiajteb. Nws hais tias, “Tus tsiaj qus uas muaj ob tug kub zoo li menyuam yaj hais lus nrog tus zaj lub suab, thiab ‘ua raws nraim txhua lub hwjchim ntawm tus tsiaj qus thawj tug nyob ntawm nws xubntiag.’ Lus faj lem tshaj tawm tias nws yuav hais rau cov uas nyob hauv ntiajteb kom lawv ua ib tug duab rau tus tsiaj qus.”
Revelation chapters twelve and thirteen, identify pagan Rome, papal Rome, the United States and the world image of the beast, that is set up by the United States. The definition of the “image of the beast” is the combination of Church and State, and for the entire world to set up an image of the beast, by definition it identifies that in the last days, a one-world government will be forced upon the entire earth. The kingdom will consist of a State and a Church, with the Church ruling over the relationship. Revelation chapters twelve and thirteen, identify four sequential kingdoms, and those same kingdoms are represented in chapter seventeen, and also in Daniel chapter two.
Tshooj kaum ob thiab kaum peb hauv Phau Ntawv Tshwmsim, qhia meej txog Loos pagan, Loos papal, Tebchaws Meskas, thiab tus duab ntawm tus tsiaj qus rau ntiajteb, uas Tebchaws Meskas tsa los. Lub ntsiab txhais ntawm “tus duab ntawm tus tsiaj qus” yog kev sib koom ua ke ntawm Koom Txoos thiab Lub Xeev, thiab kom tag nrho lub ntiajteb tsa tus duab ntawm tus tsiaj qus, raws li lub ntsiab txhais lawm, qhov no qhia meej tias nyob rau hnub kawg, ib lub tseem fwv ib-ntiajteb yuav raug yuam rau tag nrho lub ntiajteb. Lub nceeg vaj ntawd yuav muaj Lub Xeev thiab ib lub Koom Txoos, nrog rau lub Koom Txoos kav tswj saum txoj kev sib raug zoo ntawd. Tshooj kaum ob thiab kaum peb hauv Phau Ntawv Tshwmsim qhia txog plaub lub nceeg vaj ua ntu zus, thiab tib cov nceeg vaj ntawd kuj raug sawv cev hauv tshooj kaum xya, thiab kuj nyob hauv Daniel tshooj ob thiab.
In 1798, John saw the first five kingdoms of Bible prophecy had already fallen, and that in 1798, one kingdom then existed. The kingdom of Bible prophecy that began in 1798, was the earth beast of Revelation thirteen, that began as a lamb, but ends up speaking as a dragon. The United States is the two-horned sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, that follows the fifth kingdom of spiritual Babylon that had received a deadly wound. The fifth kingdom was spiritual Babylon, who had been typified by the first kingdom of literal Babylon. The sixth kingdom with two horns had been typified by the two arms of silver.
Xyoo 1798, Yauhas pom tias tsib lub tebchaws thawj zaug hauv lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub twb poob lawm lawm, thiab tias xyoo 1798, muaj ib lub tebchaws nyob lawm thaum ntawd. Lub tebchaws hauv lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub uas pib xyoo 1798 yog tus tsiaj qus hauv Qhia Tshwm tshooj kaum peb, uas pib zoo li ib tug menyuam yaj, tiamsis kawg nkaus ho hais lus zoo li ib tug zaj. Tebchaws Meskas yog lub tebchaws thib rau hauv lus faj lem hauv Phau Vajlugkub uas muaj ob tug kub, uas los tom qab lub tebchaws thib tsib, yog Npanpiloo sab ntsuj plig, uas tau txais ib qhov txhab tuag taus. Lub tebchaws thib tsib yog Npanpiloo sab ntsuj plig, uas tau raug ua qauv ua ntej los ntawm lub tebchaws thawj, yog Npanpiloo tiag tiag. Lub tebchaws thib rau uas muaj ob tug kub tau raug ua qauv ua ntej los ntawm ob txhais npab nyiaj.
In 1798, there was to be a kingdom that was yet in the future, for in 1798, “the other is not yet come.” When that seventh kingdom came into history, it would only “continue a short space.” The fifth kingdom received a deadly wound, the sixth kingdom had two horns and the seventh kingdom only continues for a brief period of time. The context of the passage identified that the seventh kingdom is represented by the “ten kings”, for when the “ten kings” become a kingdom, they only rule for “one hour,” and one “hour” is a short “space.” When the “ten kings” do reign, they rule together for the “one hour” with the beast.
Xyoo 1798, yuav tsum muaj ib lub tebchaws uas tseem yuav los nyob rau yav tom ntej, rau qhov xyoo 1798, “lwm tus tseem tsis tau los.” Thaum lub tebchaws xya ntawd los rau hauv keeb kwm, nws tsuas yog “nyob ib ntus luv” xwb. Lub tebchaws thib tsib tau txais ib qho kev raug mob txaus tuag, lub tebchaws thib rau muaj ob tug kub, thiab lub tebchaws thib xya tsuas nyob tau ib lub sijhawm luv xwb. Cov ntsiab lus ntawm nqe ntawd qhia meej tias lub tebchaws thib xya yog sawv cev los ntawm “kaum tus vajntxwv,” vim thaum “kaum tus vajntxwv” los ua ib lub tebchaws, lawv tsuas kav tau “ib teev” xwb, thiab “ib teev” yog ib “ntus” luv. Thaum “kaum tus vajntxwv” yeej kav tiag, lawv kav ua ke nrog tus tsiaj ntawd rau lub “ib teev.”
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. Revelation 17:12.
Thiab kaum kub uas koj tau pom yog kaum tug vajntxwv, uas tseem tsis tau txais ib lub tebchaws kav li; tiamsis lawv tau txais hwjchim ua vajntxwv ib pliag nrog tus tsiaj qus. Qhia Tshwm 17:12.
The “ten horns” are the seventh kingdom, but they rule together with the beast for “one hour”. The “one hour” is the period of the Sunday law crisis that begins at the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. They agree to rule with the beast, for they are forced to do so by the primary king, which is the United States. Sister White in the passage we just cited, identifies that the last power to persecute God’s people is the earth beast.
“Kaum kub” yog lub tebchaws xya, tiamsis lawv kav ua ke nrog tus tsiaj qus tau “ib teev”. “Ib teev” ntawd yog lub sijhawm ntawm kev kub ntxhov ntawm txoj cai Sunday uas pib nrog txoj cai Sunday uas yuav los sai no nyob hauv Tebchaws Meskas. Lawv pom zoo los kav nrog tus tsiaj qus, rau qhov lawv raug yuam kom ua li ntawd los ntawm tus vajntxwv loj tshaj, uas yog Tebchaws Meskas. Muam White, hauv nqe lus uas peb nyuam qhuav hais tseg, qhia meej tias lub hwjchim kawg uas tsim txom Vajtswv haiv neeg yog tus tsiaj qus hauv ntiajteb.
“John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work. This power, the last that is to wage war against the church and the law of God, was symbolized by a beast with lamblike horns.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
“Yauhas pom ib lub hwjchim tshiab sawv los kom ncha tus zaj lub suab, thiab txuas ntxiv ua tib yam haujlwm lim hiam thiab thuam Vajtswv. Lub hwjchim no, uas yog lub kawg uas yuav tawm tsam ua rog rau pawg ntseeg thiab Vajtswv txoj kevcai, raug sawv cev los ntawm ib tug tsiaj qus uas muaj kub zoo li menyuam yaj.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
The last kingdom of Bible prophecy is brought about through the deception accomplished by the United States, as the False Prophet. The kingdom began as a lamb in 1798, but in the last days it forces the world to accept the worldwide image of the beast, which is by definition the combination of a Church and a State with the Church in control of the relationship. That kingdom is also identified as a three-fold union.
Lub nceeg vaj kawg hauv Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem raug tsa sawv los los ntawm kev dag ntxias uas Tebchaws Meskas, raws li tus Cevlus Cuav, ua tiav lawm. Lub nceeg vaj ntawd tau pib ua ib tug menyuam yaj xyoo 1798, tiam sis nyob rau hnub kawg nws yuam lub ntiaj teb kom lees txais tus duab tsiaj qus thoob ntiajteb, uas raws li lub ntsiab lus txhais yog kev sib koom ua ke ntawm ib lub Koom Txoos thiab ib lub Xeev, nrog lub Koom Txoos ua tus tswj hwm txoj kev sib raug zoo ntawd. Lub nceeg vaj ntawd kuj raug txheeb tias yog ib qho kev sib koom ua peb txheej.
“The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of Spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience.” The Great Controversy, 588.
“Cov Protestant nyob hauv Tebchaws Meskas yuav yog cov ua ntej tshaj plaws ncab tes hla lub kwj hav tob kom tuav tes ntawm Kev Ntseeg Ntsujplig; lawv yuav ncav tes hla lub qhov taub tob mus sib tuav tes nrog lub hwjchim Loos; thiab nyob hauv qab txoj kev cuam tshuam ntawm txoj kev koom tes peb npaug no, lub tebchaws no yuav taug raws qab cov kauj ruam ntawm Loos hauv kev tsuj nyoos cov cai ntawm lub siab dawb paug.” The Great Controversy, 588.
The threefold union is the union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet, which in Revelation sixteen go forth to the kings of the earth and lead the world to Armageddon.
Kev koom ua peb npaug yog kev koom ua ke ntawm tus zaj, tus tsiaj qus, thiab tus yaj saub cuav, uas nyob hauv Tshwmsim kaum rau tawm mus cuag cov vajntxwv hauv ntiajteb thiab coj lub ntiajteb mus rau Harmakhedoos.
And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Revelation 16:13, 14.
Thiab kuv pom muaj peb tug ntsujplig qias neeg zoo li qav tawm hauv tus zaj lub qhov ncauj los, thiab tawm hauv tus tsiaj lub qhov ncauj los, thiab tawm hauv tus yaj saub cuav lub qhov ncauj los. Vim lawv yog cov ntsujplig ntawm dab phem, uas ua tej txuj ci tseem ceeb, thiab tawm mus cuag cov vaj ntxwv hauv ntiajteb thiab ntawm tag nrho lub qab ntuj, kom sib sau lawv los rau kev tsov rog ntawm hnub loj ntawd ntawm Vajtswv Tus Muaj Hwjchim Loj Kawg Nkaus. Qhia Tshwm 16:13, 14.
The “Roman power” is the papacy, the beast and the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy that received a deadly wound. The “Protestants” represent the United States, the false prophet, the sixth and final kingdom of Bible prophecy. “Spiritualism” is the United Nations, the dragon and the kingdom that agrees to rule for one hour with the beast. The threefold union is accomplished during the “one hour” that is the “hour” of the “great earthquake” in Revelation eleven, which is the soon-coming Sunday law.
“Lub hwjchim Roman” yog lub papacy, tus tsiaj qus thiab lub nceeg vaj thib tsib hauv Vajlugkub txoj lus faj lem uas tau txais ib qho txhab tuag taus. “Cov Protestants” sawv cev rau Tebchaws Meskas, tus yaj saub cuav, lub nceeg vaj thib rau thiab lub kawg hauv Vajlugkub txoj lus faj lem. “Kev ntseeg dab” yog lub Koom Haum Tebchaws Ntiaj Teb, tus zaj thiab lub nceeg vaj uas pom zoo los kav ib teev nrog tus tsiaj qus. Qhov kev koom ua peb seem no tiav rau hauv “ib teev” uas yog “teev” ntawm “av qeeg loj” hauv Tshwmsim kaum ib, uas yog txoj cai Sunday uas yuav los sai no.
“By the decree enforcing the institution of the Papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with Spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.
“Los ntawm txoj cai txiav txim uas yuam kom tsa thiab txhawb lub koom haum Papacy, ua txhaum rau Vajtswv txoj kevcai, peb haiv tebchaws yuav txiav nws tus kheej tawm kiag ntawm kev ncaj ncees. Thaum Protestantism yuav ncab nws txhais tes hla tus kwj deg tob ntawd mus tuav tes nrog lub hwjchim Roman, thaum nws yuav ncav dhau lub qhov tob mus koom tes nrog Spiritualism, thaum, nyob rau hauv tus cawv ntawm qhov kev sib koom peb ceg no, peb lub tebchaws yuav tsis lees paub txhua lub ntsiab cai ntawm nws Txoj Cai Lij Choj raws li ib lub xeev Protestant thiab Republican, thiab yuav npaj kev pab txhawb rau kev nthuav tawm tej kev dag thiab kev ntxias ntawm papal hwjchim, ces peb yuav paub tau tias lub sijhawm tau los txog rau txoj haujlwm hwjchim loj kawg nkaus uas Xatas ua, thiab tias qhov kawg twb nyob ze lawm.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.
In Daniel chapter two, Babylon, the first kingdom of Bible prophecy represented by the head of gold, typifies spiritual Babylon, the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy. The twofold kingdom of the Medes and Persians, the shoulders and arms of silver, the second kingdom of Bible prophecy in Daniel two, represents the two-horned earth beast, the United States, the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. The brass of the image of Daniel two, representing Greece, the third kingdom of Bible prophecy, represents the United Nations, the seventh head that continues for “one hour”, and that agrees to accept a position in the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and false prophet.
Hauv Daniyees tshooj ob, Npanpiloo, thawj lub nceeg vaj ntawm Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem uas sawv cev los ntawm lub taub hau kub, yog tus qauv qhia txog Npanpiloo sab ntsuj plig, lub nceeg vaj thib tsib ntawm Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem. Lub nceeg vaj ob sab ntawm cov Mees thiab cov Peesxias, yog ob lub xub pwg thiab ob txhais npab nyiaj, lub nceeg vaj thib ob ntawm Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem hauv Daniyees tshooj ob, sawv cev rau tus tsiaj qus ob tug kub los ntawm lub ntiaj teb, yog Tebchaws Asmeskas, lub nceeg vaj thib rau ntawm Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem. Tooj dag ntawm tus pej thuam hauv Daniyees tshooj ob, uas sawv cev rau tim Nkijteb, lub nceeg vaj thib peb ntawm Vajlugkub tej lus faj lem, sawv cev rau Koomhaum Tebchaws Ntiaj Teb, yog lub taub hau thib xya uas nyob mus ib “teev”, thiab uas pom zoo lees txais ib qho chaw nyob hauv kev koom tes peb sab ntawm tus zaj, tus tsiaj qus, thiab tus yaj saub cuav.
The iron kingdom of Daniel chapter two, the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy, represents the eighth kingdom, that is of the seven. Literal pagan Rome, the fourth kingdom, represents modern Rome, which is a kingdom that is structured with the combination of Church and State, with the Church ruling over the relationship. That kingdom is threefold in nature, for the premier king of the “ten kings” is the sixth kingdom which is the earth beast. The sixth kingdom is Ahab, who was married to Jezebel. The sixth kingdom when represented in its threefold union is modern Rome, that was preceded by the fifth kingdom that was papal Rome, which was preceded by the fourth kingdom of pagan Rome.
Lub nceeg vaj hlau hauv Daniyee tshooj ob, uas yog lub nceeg vaj thib plaub hauv tej lus faj lem hauv Vajlugkub, sawv cev rau lub nceeg vaj thib yim, uas yog ib lub ntawm xya lub. Loos teev dab qub tiag tiag, uas yog lub nceeg vaj thib plaub, sawv cev rau Loos niaj hnub no, uas yog ib lub nceeg vaj uas raug txhim tsa los ntawm kev sib koom ua ke ntawm Koom Txoos thiab Xeev, nrog rau Koom Txoos kav saum txoj kev sib raug zoo ntawd. Lub nceeg vaj ntawd muaj peb ntu hauv nws tus yam ntxwv, vim tus vaj thawj ntawm “kaum tus vaj” yog lub nceeg vaj thib rau uas yog tus tsiaj qus hauv ntiajteb. Lub nceeg vaj thib rau yog Ahaj, tus uas tau yuav Yexanpe. Lub nceeg vaj thib rau, thaum raug sawv cev hauv nws txoj kev koom siab peb ntu, yog Loos niaj hnub no, uas tau raug ua ntej los ntawm lub nceeg vaj thib tsib uas yog Loos papal, uas kuj tau raug ua ntej los ntawm lub nceeg vaj thib plaub uas yog Loos teev dab qub.
The Millerites only saw Rome as the fourth and final kingdom. They recognized it was twofold in nature, but could see no other following earthly kingdom. The fourth kingdom was pagan Rome, which preceded papal Rome the fifth kingdom, that is followed by modern Rome the sixth kingdom. The sixth kingdom is the third of three Roman manifestations.
Cov Millerites tsuas pom Loos xwb ua lub nceeg vaj plaub thiab yog lub nceeg vaj kawg. Lawv lees paub tias nws muaj ob chav yam ntxwv, tiamsis lawv tsis pom muaj lwm lub nceeg vaj hauv ntiajteb uas yuav los tom qab. Lub nceeg vaj plaub yog Loos teev dab mlom, uas ua ntej Loos papal, lub nceeg vaj tsib, thiab tom qab ntawd yog Loos niaj hnub no, lub nceeg vaj rau. Lub nceeg vaj rau yog lub thib peb hauv peb yam kev tshwm sim ntawm Loos.
The threefold union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet is both modern Rome and also Babylon the Great, whose deadly wound is healed. The United States, the United Nations and the whore of Tyre represent the eighth and final kingdom, but they are all three allies in the threefold union of the sixth kingdom, which is the last power “to wage war against the church and the law of God.”
Kev kev sib koom ua peb npaug ntawm tus zaj, tus tsiaj qus thiab tus yaj saub cuav yog ob yam tib si: Loos niaj hnub no thiab kuj yog Npanpiloo Loj, uas nws lub qhov txhab tuag taus twb raug kho zoo lawm. Tebchaws Meskas, Koom Haum Tebchaws Meskas thiab tus poj niam deev luag pojniam ntawm Thailaub sawv cev rau lub tebchaws thib yim thiab zaum kawg, tiam sis lawv peb leeg puav leej yog cov phoojywg hauv kev sib koom ua peb npaug ntawm lub tebchaws thib rau, uas yog lub hwjchim kawg “yuav ua rog tawm tsam pawg ntseeg thiab Vajtswv txoj kevcai.”
The United States is one-third of the sixth kingdom. The United Nations, as part of the threefold union, is also one-third of the sixth kingdom, and the papacy is also one-third of the sixth kingdom. At this level the number for the United States is SIX, and the number for the United Nations is SIX and the number of the papacy is SIX. The threefold union represents the number of a man, the “man of sin”, and his number is SIX-SIX-SIX.
Tebchaws Meskas yog ib feem peb ntawm lub nceeg vaj thib rau. Lub Koom Haum Tebchaws Ntiaj Teb (United Nations), raws li yog ib feem ntawm txoj kev koom ua peb tog, kuj yog ib feem peb ntawm lub nceeg vaj thib rau, thiab lub hwjchim papacy kuj yog ib feem peb ntawm lub nceeg vaj thib rau thiab. Nyob rau theem no tus lej rau Tebchaws Meskas yog RAU, thiab tus lej rau Lub Koom Haum Tebchaws Ntiaj Teb yog RAU, thiab tus lej ntawm papacy yog RAU. Txoj kev koom ua peb tog sawv cev rau tus lej ntawm ib tug neeg, tus “txiv neej ntawm kev txhaum,” thiab nws tus lej yog RAU-RAU-RAU.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13:18.
Nov yog kev txawj ntse nyob ntawm no. Tus uas muaj kev to taub, cia nws xam tus naj npawb ntawm tus tsiaj qus; rau qhov nws yog tus naj npawb ntawm ib tug neeg; thiab nws tus naj npawb yog Rau pua rau caum rau. Tshwmsim 13:18.
The sixth and final separate kingdom is the United States, but it deceives the world, for it is the False Prophet.
Lub tebchaws thib rau thiab yog lub nceeg vaj cais kawg yog Tebchaws Meskas, tiam sis nws dag ntxias lub ntiajteb, rau qhov nws yog tus Yaj Saub Cuav.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. Revelation 13:12–14.
Thiab nws siv tas nrho lub hwjchim ntawm tus tsiaj thawj nyob ntawm nws xub ntiag, thiab ua rau lub ntiajteb thiab cov uas nyob hauv ntawd pe hawm tus tsiaj thawj, uas nws lub qhov txhab tuag taus twb zoo lawm. Thiab nws ua tej yam txujci loj kawg, kom nws txawm ua hluav taws nqes saum ntuj los rau saum lub ntiajteb rau ntawm tibneeg lub qhov muag pom, thiab dag ntxias cov uas nyob hauv lub ntiajteb los ntawm tej txujci uas nws tau txais hwjchim ua rau ntawm tus tsiaj xub ntiag; hais rau cov uas nyob hauv lub ntiajteb kom lawv ua ib tug mlom rau tus tsiaj, uas raug rab ntaj txhab thiab tseem ciaj sia. Tshwmsim 13:12–14.
The “power of the first beast before him,” represents the power that was given to the papacy by the kings of Europe, beginning with Clovis in the year 496. The United States uses its military might, accompanied by its economic might to deceive and coerce the world. The United States forces the world to worship the papacy, through the enforcement of Sunday worship. The United States performs great wonders by making fire, (a symbol of a message) to come down out of heaven, that is to be accomplished by the Information Super-Highway, that represents the full development of brainwashing and propaganda, that is the modern manifestation of hypnosis. Because of the escalating crisis brought upon the earth by Islam, as they fulfill their role in angering the nations, the world is deceived to accept the worldwide system of the combination of Church and State that consists of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.
“Lub hwjchim ntawm thawj tug tsiaj qus nyob ntawm nws xub ntiag,” sawv cev rau lub hwjchim uas tau muab rau txoj kev kav ntawm tus papacy los ntawm cov vajntxwv ntawm Tebchaws Europe, pib nrog Clovis nyob rau xyoo 496. Tebchaws Meskas siv nws lub hwjchim tub rog, nrog rau nws lub hwjchim nyiaj txiag, los dag ntxias thiab yuam lub ntiajteb. Tebchaws Meskas yuam lub ntiajteb kom pe hawm tus papacy, los ntawm kev coj kom siv kev pe hawm hnub Sunday. Tebchaws Meskas ua tej txujci loj kawg los ntawm kev ua kom hluav taws, (uas yog ib lub cim ntawm ib txoj lus) nqes los saum ntuj los, uas yog yuav raug ua kom tiav los ntawm Txoj Kev Loj Tshaj Tawm Xov Xwm, uas sawv cev rau txoj kev loj hlob puv npo ntawm kev ntxuav hlwb thiab kev tshaj tawm dag ntxias, uas yog daim qauv tshwm sim niaj hnub no ntawm kev qaug tsaug zog los ntawm kev tswj siab. Vim yog txoj kev kub ntxhov uas tab tom nce zuj zus uas Islam coj los rau saum lub ntiajteb, thaum lawv ua tiav lawv tes haujlwm hauv kev ua kom cov tebchaws npau taws, lub ntiajteb thiaj raug dag ntxias kom lees txais lub txheej txheem thoob ntiajteb ntawm kev sib xyaw ntawm Koom Txoos thiab Xeev uas muaj tus zaj, tus tsiaj qus, thiab tus yaj saub cuav.
When verse eighteen of Revelation thirteen says count the number of the beast, the number is the three powers that come together to make up the sixth and final kingdom. When that kingdom of 666, is put in place, it will be the fulfillment of the prophetic riddle that the eighth king is of the seven. That prophetic riddle is part of the truth that is unsealed when the Lion of the tribe of Judah, unseals the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
Thaum nqe kaum yim ntawm Qhia Tshwm tshooj kaum peb hais tias kom suav tus lej ntawm tus tsiaj nyaum, tus lej ntawd yog peb lub hwj chim uas tuaj sib koom ua ke los tsim lub nceeg vaj thib rau thiab yog lub nceeg vaj kawg. Thaum lub nceeg vaj ntawd uas yog 666 raug tsa los, nws yuav yog qhov ua tiav ntawm zaj lus zais yaj saub hais tias tus vaj ntxwv thib yim yog los ntawm xya leej. Zaj lus zais yaj saub ntawd yog ib feem ntawm qhov tseeb uas raug qhib thaum Tus Tsov Ntxhuav ntawm xeem Yudas qhib Qhia Tshwm ntawm Yexus Khetos.
For this reason the riddle of the final kingdom that is the threefold sixth kingdom, that is also spiritual Babylon that was forgotten for seventy symbolic years, and who is modern Rome, and who is also the worldwide image of the beast, who was typified by the first kingdom of Babylon, and the fourth kingdom of pagan Rome, is twice witnessed to by the identification that it is the “wise” that will understand this truth, for the enigma of 666, is premised upon those who have wisdom, as is the enigma of the eighth king being of the seven.
Vim li no qhov txhiaj txhais txog lub tebchaws kawg uas yog lub tebchaws thib rau uas muaj peb chav, uas kuj yog Npanpiloo sab ntsuj plig uas raug tsis nco qab rau xya caum xyoo uas yog cim, thiab uas yog Loos niaj hnub no, thiab uas kuj yog tus duab ntawm tus tsiaj qus thoob qab ntuj, uas tau raug ua qauv tseg los ntawm thawj lub tebchaws Npanpiloo, thiab lub tebchaws thib plaub uas yog Loos pagan, thiaj raug ua tim khawv ob zaug los ntawm qhov kev txheeb qhia tias cov “txawj ntse” thiaj yuav to taub qhov tseeb no, rau qhov zaj paub tsis meej ntawm 666 yog tsa rau saum cov uas muaj tswvyim, ib yam li zaj paub tsis meej hais txog tus vajntxwv thib yim yog los ntawm xya tus.
Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13:18.
Ntawm no yog kev txawj ntse. Tus uas muaj kev nkag siab, cia nws suav tus lej ntawm tus tsiaj nyaum: rau qhov nws yog tus lej ntawm ib tug neeg; thiab nws tus lej yog Rau pua rau caum rau. Qhia Tshwm 13:18.
And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. Revelation 17:9.
Thiab ntawm no yog lub siab uas muaj kev txawj ntse. Xya lub taub hau ntawd yog xya lub roob, saum lawv tus pojniam zaum. Tshwmsim 17:9.
The unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ is understood by the “wise,” not by the wicked. Both references of wisdom in the book of Revelation are about those who have “understanding,” and what the “wise” understand is the “increase of knowledge”. The “increase of knowledge” that is the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the revelation that the eighth kingdom, which is the threefold kingdom of 666, is also represented in Daniel chapter two, for the jewels of Miller’s dream are to shine ten times brighter in the last days.
Kev qhib tawm ntawm Kev Qhia Tshwm ntawm Yexus Khetos yog cov “neeg txawj ntse” thiaj to taub, tsis yog cov neeg phem. Ob qho kev hais txog kev txawj ntse hauv phau Ntawv Qhia Tshwm yog hais txog cov uas muaj “kev nkag siab,” thiab yam uas cov “neeg txawj ntse” to taub yog “kev paub uas nce ntxiv”. Qhov “kev paub uas nce ntxiv” uas yog Kev Qhia Tshwm ntawm Yexus Khetos yog qhov kev tshwm sim tias lub nceeg vaj thib yim, uas yog lub nceeg vaj peb txheej ntawm 666, kuj raug sawv cev hauv Daniyee tshooj ob thiab, vim hais tias cov pob zeb muaj nqis hauv Miller tus npau suav yuav ci ntsa iab kaum npaug tshaj hauv hnub kawg.
We will continue this study in the next article.
Peb yuav txuas ntxiv txoj kev kawm no hauv zaj ntawv tom ntej.
“In the Revelation are portrayed the deep things of God. The very name given to its inspired pages, ‘the Revelation,’ contradicts the statement that this is a sealed book. A revelation is something revealed. The Lord Himself revealed to His servant the mysteries contained in this book, and He designs that they shall be open to the study of all. Its truths are addressed to those living in the last days of this earth’s history, as well as to those living in the days of John. Some of the scenes depicted in this prophecy are in the past, some are now taking place; some bring to view the close of the great conflict between the powers of darkness and the Prince of heaven, and some reveal the triumphs and joys of the redeemed in the earth made new.
“Hauv Phau Ntawv Qhia Tshwm muaj daim duab qhia txog tej yam tob kawg ntawm Vajtswv. Qhov npe uas twb muab rau nws cov nplooj ntawv uas raug tshoov siab ntawd, ‘Phau Ntawv Qhia Tshwm,’ nws tus kheej twb tawm tsam lo lus hais tias phau no yog ib phau ntawv uas raug kaw lawm. Kev tshwm sim yog ib yam uas raug qhia tawm. Tus Tswv Nws tus kheej tau qhia rau Nws tus tub qhe txog tej yam zais tob uas muaj nyob hauv phau ntawv no, thiab Nws npaj kom tej ntawd qhib rau sawv daws kawm. Nws tej qhov tseeb raug hais rau cov uas nyob hauv hnub kawg ntawm keeb kwm ntiajteb no, ib yam li rau cov uas nyob hauv Yauhas tiam. Qee qhov xwm txheej uas raug piav hauv lo lus faj lem no twb dhau mus lawm, qee qhov tam sim no tseem tab tom muaj, qee qhov coj kom pom txog qhov xaus ntawm txoj kev sib ntaus loj nruab nrab ntawm tej hwj chim ntawm txoj kev tsaus ntuj thiab tus Tub Vaj Ntxwv saum ntuj ceeb tsheej, thiab qee qhov qhia tawm txog kev yeej thiab kev xyiv fab ntawm cov uas raug txhiv dim nyob hauv lub ntiajteb uas raug tsim dua tshiab.”
“Let none think, because they cannot explain the meaning of every symbol in the Revelation, that it is useless for them to search this book in an effort to know the meaning of the truth it contains. The One who revealed these mysteries to John will give to the diligent searcher for truth a foretaste of heavenly things. Those whose hearts are open to the reception of truth will be enabled to understand its teachings, and will be granted the blessing promised to those who ‘hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein.’
“Tsis txhob cia leejtwg xav tias, vim lawv piav tsis tau lub ntsiab ntawm txhua lub cim nyob hauv Phau Ntawv Qhia Tshwm, ces tsis muaj nqis rau lawv los tshawb nrhiav phau ntawv no kom paub lub ntsiab ntawm qhov tseeb uas muaj nyob hauv. Tus uas tau tshwm tej yam tsis paub meej no rau Yauhas yuav pub rau tus uas mob siab nrhiav qhov tseeb tau saj ua ntej me ntsis txog tej yam saum ntuj ceeb tsheej. Cov uas lawv lub siab qhib txais qhov tseeb yuav raug pab kom nkag siab nws tej lus qhuab qhia, thiab yuav tau txais txoj koob hmoov uas tau cog tseg rau cov uas ‘hnov tej lus ntawm zaj lus faj lem no, thiab ceev tej yam uas tau sau cia hauv ntawd.’”
“In the Revelation all the books of the Bible meet and end. Here is the complement of the book of Daniel. One is a prophecy; the other a revelation. The book that was sealed is not the Revelation, but that portion of the prophecy of Daniel relating to the last days. The angel commanded, ‘But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end.’ Daniel 12:4.” Acts of the Apostles, 584, 585.
“Hauv phau Ntawv Qhia Tshwm sim no, txhua phau ntawv hauv Phau Vajlugkub los sib ntsib thiab xaus rau ntawd. Nov yog qhov ua kom tiav ntawm phau ntawv Daniyees. Ib phau yog lus faj lem; hos lwm phau yog kev tshwm sim. Phau ntawv uas raug kaw tsis yog phau Qhia Tshwm sim, tiamsis yog qhov seem ntawm lus faj lem hauv phau Daniyees uas hais txog hnub kawg. Tus tim tswv tau txib hais tias, ‘Tiamsis koj, Au Daniyees, cia li kaw cov lus no, thiab muab phau ntawv no nias ruaj, mus txog rau lub sijhawm kawg.’ Daniyees 12:4.” Acts of the Apostles, 584, 585.
