We are dealing with the parallel between the movements of the first and third angels, in order to better understand what the increase of knowledge represents symbolically when it is unsealed at the time of the end. We are attempting to demonstrate that it represents an escalation of truth that ultimately climaxes as the latter rain, which is the message of the Midnight Cry. As a symbol, the “increase of knowledge” is derived from the book of Daniel, and it is there identified as the prophetic knowledge that tests and produces two classes of worshippers.
Bavimo se usporedbom između pokreta prvoga i trećega anđela kako bismo bolje razumjeli što porast znanja simbolički predstavlja kada bude otpečaćen u vrijeme svršetka. Nastojimo pokazati da on predstavlja stupnjevanje istine koje na koncu doseže vrhunac kao kasna kiša, a to je poruka Ponoćnoga poklika. Kao simbol, „porast znanja“ proizlazi iz knjige proroka Daniela, i ondje je prepoznat kao proročko znanje koje iskušava i oblikuje dvije skupine štovatelja.
And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Daniel 12:9, 10.
I reče: Idi svojim putem, Daniele, jer su ove riječi zatvorene i zapečaćene do vremena svršetka. Mnogi će se očistiti i ubijeliti i biti prokušani; a bezbožni će činiti bezbožno; i nijedan od bezbožnih neće razumjeti; ali mudri će razumjeti. Daniel 12:9, 10.
In 1989 an “increase of knowledge” was unsealed that will ultimately demonstrate two classes of worshippers. Those two classes are illustrated in the context of how they relate to the message of the latter rain. The wicked do not recognize or receive the latter rain, and the wise do. The wicked therefore do not see when the latter rain begins to fall, and it began to fall when the nations were angered on September 11, 2001. We have been addressing the leadership of Laodicean Adventism as represented in Ezekiel chapters eight and nine, and also in Isaiah chapter twenty-eight. In Isaiah the “scornful men” “made lies” their “refuge” and “hid” themselves “under falsehood.”
Godine 1989. bilo je otpečaćeno „umnoženje znanja” koje će na koncu pokazati dvije skupine štovatelja. Te su dvije skupine prikazane u kontekstu njihova odnosa prema poruci poznoga dažda. Zli ne prepoznaju niti primaju pozni dažad, a mudri ga prepoznaju i primaju. Stoga zli ne vide kada pozni dažad počinje padati, a on je počeo padati kada su se narodi razgnjevili 11. rujna 2001. Obraćali smo se vodstvu laodicejskog adventizma kako je predstavljeno u osmom i devetom poglavlju Ezekiela, a također i u dvadeset osmom poglavlju Izaije. U Izaiji su „ljudi podrugljivci” „učinili laž” svojim „utočištem” i „sakrili” se „pod prijevarom”.
Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves. Isaiah 28:14, 15.
Zato čujte riječ Gospodnju, vi podsmješljivi ljudi, koji vladate ovim narodom što je u Jeruzalemu. Jer vi ste rekli: Savez smo sklopili sa smrću i sa paklom smo u sporazumu; kad prođe preplavljujući bič, neće doći do nas; jer laž smo učinili svojim utočištem i pod prijevarom smo se sakrili. Izaija 28,14.15.
The ancient men of Jerusalem of the last days fail the test of “the rest and refreshing” that is represented by the methodology of “line upon line,” which allows the wise to recognize the latter rain of the last days, through the historical illustration of the latter rain in the Millerite history. The prophetic characteristic of “the scornful men” that Isaiah emphasizes in the passage, is the lies and falsehood that they hid under and made their refuge. Therefore, in connection with the test of the latter rain message (the rest and refreshing that they would not hear), the ancient men of Jerusalem have accepted a lie.
Drevni ljudi Jeruzalema posljednjih dana ne prolaze kušnju „počine i osvježenja“ koja je prikazana metodologijom „red na red“, što mudrima omogućuje da prepoznaju kasnu kišu posljednjih dana kroz povijesni prikaz kasne kiše u mileritskoj povijesti. Proročko obilježje „podrugljivih ljudi“ koje Izaija naglašava u tom odlomku jesu laži i neistina pod kojima su se skrivali i koje su sebi učinili utočištem. Stoga su, u vezi s kušnjom poruke o kasnoj kiši („počina i osvježenje“ koje nisu htjeli čuti), drevni ljudi Jeruzalema prihvatili laž.
The latter rain message arrives with a debate, as represented in Habakkuk chapter two, when the watchman there asks God what he should answer in the “debate” of his history, for the word “reproved” in verse one of chapter two means “argued with”.
Poruka o kasnoj kiši dolazi s raspravom, kao što je prikazano u drugom poglavlju Habakuka, kada tamošnji stražar pita Boga što treba odgovoriti u „raspravi” svoje povijesti, jer riječ „ukoren” u prvom retku drugoga poglavlja znači „raspravljao se s”.
I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Habakkuk 2:1.
Stat ću na svoju stražu i postaviti se na kulu; i motrit ću da vidim što će mi reći i što ću odgovoriti kad budem ukoren. Habakuk 2,1.
The wise during the debate of the latter rain, present the truths represented as Miller’s jewels, which are also the foundational truths identified, established and presented by the Millerites. Those truths are represented as Christ, the Rock of Ages.
Mudri tijekom rasprave o kasnoj kiši iznose istine predstavljene kao Millerovi dragulji, koje su ujedno temeljne istine što su ih mileriti prepoznali, utvrdili i iznijeli. Te su istine predstavljene kao Krist, Stijena vjekova.
“Let those who stand as God’s watchmen on the walls of Zion be men who can see the dangers before the people,—men who can distinguish between truth and error, righteousness and unrighteousness.
„Neka oni koji stoje kao Božji stražari na zidinama Siona budu ljudi koji mogu vidjeti opasnosti prije naroda,—ljudi koji mogu razlikovati istinu od zablude, pravednost od nepravednosti.
“The warning has come: Nothing is to be allowed to come in that will disturb the foundation of the faith upon which we have been building ever since the message came in 1842, 1843, and 1844. I was in this message, and ever since I have been standing before the world, true to the light that God has given us. We do not propose to take our feet off the platform on which they were placed as day by day we sought the Lord with earnest prayer, seeking for light. Do you think that I could give up the light that God has given me? It is to be as the Rock of Ages. It has been guiding me ever since it was given.” Review and Herald, April 14, 1903.
„Upozorenje je dano: ne smije se dopustiti da uđe išta što bi uznemirilo temelj vjere na kojem gradimo još otkako je poruka došla 1842., 1843. i 1844. godine. Ja sam bila u toj poruci, i od tada stojim pred svijetom, vjerna svjetlu koje nam je Bog dao. Ne namjeravamo maknuti svoja stopala s postolja na koje su bila postavljena dok smo iz dana u dan tražili Gospodina usrdnom molitvom, tražeći svjetlo. Mislite li da bih se mogla odreći svjetla koje mi je Bog dao? Ono treba biti kao Stijena vjekova. Ono me vodi otkako mi je dano.” Review and Herald, 14. travnja 1903.
The ancient men present a false latter rain message that is represented by Isaiah as a “lie” and a falsehood. In Ezekiel chapter eight, the history that identifies when the ancient men of Jerusalem are bowing to the sun, and are contrasted with those who receive the seal of God in the next chapter. The third abomination (generation), represents a false latter rain message, as represented by the “weeping for Tammuz.” In the third generation of Adventism, which began in 1919, a “lie” was introduced in connection with the false gospel publicly presented by W. W. Prescott at the 1919 Bible Conference. That “lie” is a specific subject of the third generation, and the “lie” is the false foundation of the false latter rain message, represented by the “weeping for Tammuz.”
Drevni ljudi iznose lažnu poruku kasne kiše, koju Izaija prikazuje kao „laž” i neistinu. U osmom poglavlju Ezekiela nalazi se povijest koja pokazuje kada se starješine Jeruzalema klanjaju suncu te su suprotstavljene onima koji u sljedećem poglavlju primaju pečat Božji. Treća gadost (naraštaj) predstavlja lažnu poruku kasne kiše, što je prikazano „naricanjem za Tamuzom”. U trećem naraštaju adventizma, koji je započeo 1919. godine, uvedena je „laž” u vezi s lažnim evanđeljem koje je W. W. Prescott javno iznio na Biblijskoj konferenciji 1919. godine. Ta je „laž” poseban predmet trećega naraštaja, a „laž” je lažni temelj lažne poruke kasne kiše, prikazane „naricanjem za Tamuzom”.
It is important to spend time pinpointing the “lie” in prophecy, for the “lie” is the major reason Laodicean Adventism cannot see the increase of knowledge in 1989. The “lie” is that “the daily” in the book of Daniel represents Christ’s sanctuary ministry. Applying “the daily” prophetically as Christ’s sanctuary ministry is a false and incorrect prophetic application, but the “lie” is not simply identifying the false identification of “the daily” as a prophetic symbol, it also represents a “lie” that claims that Sister White agreed with the false application, and then using that falsehood to then establish the incorrect application as established truth.
Važno je posvetiti vrijeme točnom prepoznavanju „laži” u proročanstvu, jer je „laž” glavni razlog zbog kojega laodicejski adventizam ne može vidjeti porast znanja 1989. godine. „Laž” je u tome što „svagdašnja” u knjizi proroka Daniela navodno predstavlja Kristovu službu u Svetištu. Proročki primjenjivati „svagdašnju” kao Kristovu službu u Svetištu lažna je i pogrešna proročka primjena, ali „laž” nije jednostavno samo prepoznavanje pogrešne identifikacije „svagdašnje” kao proročkog simbola; ona također predstavlja i „laž” koja tvrdi da se sestra White slagala s tom pogrešnom primjenom, a zatim se tom neistinom služi kako bi se pogrešna primjena uspostavila kao utvrđena istina.
The correct understanding of the last six verses of Daniel eleven, have been typified by verses thirty to thirty-six, and when Sister White identifies the complete fulfillment of Daniel chapter eleven, she states that “scenes similar to those described” in verses thirty to thirty-six “will be repeated.”
Ispravno razumijevanje posljednjih šest redaka jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela unaprijed je predočeno u recima trideset do trideset i šest, a kada sestra White prepoznaje potpuno ispunjenje jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela, izjavljuje da će se „prizori slični onima opisanima” u recima trideset do trideset i šest „ponoviti.”
Employing the false definition of “the daily,” produces a false historical structure. The history represented in Daniel chapter eleven, verses thirty to thirty-six, includes the taking away of “the daily.” “The daily” is either the Millerite application, or application of Prescott and Daniells. Depending on which application is chosen, two different historical structures will be produced.
Primjena pogrešne definicije izraza „svagdašnja“ proizvodi pogrešnu povijesnu strukturu. Povijest prikazana u jedanaestom poglavlju Danielove knjige, u redcima trideset do trideset šest, uključuje uklanjanje „svagdašnje“. „Svagdašnja“ je ili milleritska primjena, ili primjena Prescotta i Daniellsa. Ovisno o tome koja se primjena izabere, nastat će dvije različite povijesne strukture.
And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. Daniel 11:31.
I mišice će stati na njegovoj strani, i one će oskvrnuti svetište sile, i ukinut će svagdašnju žrtvu, i postavit će grozotu pustoši. Daniel 11:31.
According to inspiration the prophetic history represented in this verse, and including verse thirty, and verses thirty-two through thirty-six is to be repeated in verses forty through forty-five of Daniel eleven.
Prema nadahnuću, proročka povijest prikazana u ovome retku, koja uključuje i trideseti redak te retke trideset i dva do trideset i šest, treba se ponoviti u četrdesetom do četrdeset i petom retku jedanaestoga poglavlja Daniela.
“The prophecy in the eleventh of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Much of the history that has taken place in fulfillment of this prophecy will be repeated. In the thirtieth verse a power is spoken of that ‘shall be grieved, [Daniel 11:30–36 quoted.]
„Proročanstvo u jedanaestom poglavlju Daniela gotovo je doseglo svoje potpuno ispunjenje. Mnogo povijesti koja se odigrala kao ispunjenje ovoga proročanstva bit će ponovljeno. U tridesetom retku govori se o sili koja će se ‘ražalostiti’, [Daniel 11:30–36 citirano.]
“Scenes similar to those described in these words will take place.” Manuscript Releases, number 13, 394.
„Prizori slični onima opisanima u ovim riječima odigrat će se.“ Manuscript Releases, broj 13, 394.
The verse where we find “the daily,” is verse thirty-one.
Redak u kojem nalazimo „svagdašnju žrtvu” jest trideset i prvi redak.
And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. Daniel 11:31.
I mišice će stajati na njegovoj strani, i one će oskvrnuti svetište sile, i ukinut će svagdašnju žrtvu, i postavit će grozotu koja pustoši. Daniel 11,31.
The “arms” in the verse stand up on “his part.” The “arms” are a power, as is the one they “stand up” for. It is the “arms” in the verse that “stand on his part,” and the “arms” that “pollute the sanctuary of strength,” and the “arms” “take away the daily” and it is also the “arms” that “place the abomination that maketh desolate.” In Revelation chapter thirteen, the dragon, which is pagan Rome provides three things for the papacy.
„Mišice” u retku ustaju „na njegovoj strani”. „Mišice” su sila, kao što je sila i onaj za koga one „ustaju”. Upravo su „mišice” u retku te koje „stoje na njegovoj strani”, i „mišice” onečišćuju „svetište sile”, i „mišice” „ukidaju svagdašnju žrtvu”, a također su „mišice” te koje „postavljaju gnusobu pustoši”. U trinaestom poglavlju Otkrivenja zmaj, koji je poganski Rim, daje papinstvu tri stvari.
And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. Revelation 13:2.
I zvijer koju vidjeh bijaše nalik leopardu, i noge joj kao noge medvjeda, a usta joj kao usta lava; i zmaj joj dade svoju silu, i svoje prijestolje, i veliku vlast. Otkrivenje 13,2.
The leopard-like beast is identified by Sister White as the papacy, and in chapter twelve Sister White identifies that the dragon is both Satan, and also pagan Rome.
Zvijer nalik leopardu sestra White poistovjećuje s papinstvom, a u dvanaestom poglavlju sestra White utvrđuje da je zmaj i Sotona, a također i poganski Rim.
“Thus while the dragon, primarily, represents Satan, it is, in a secondary sense, a symbol of pagan Rome.” The Great Controversy, 439.
„Dakle, premda zmaj prvenstveno predstavlja Sotonu, on je, u drugotnom smislu, simbol poganskoga Rima.“ Velika borba, 439.
In verse two, of Revelation chapter thirteen, pagan Rome gave its military power, its “arms”, unto the papacy, beginning with Clovis king of the Franks (France), in the year 496. Pagan Rome gave papal Rome its seat of authority in the year 330, when the emperor Constantine vacated the city of Rome and moved the capitol of imperial Rome to the city of Constantinople. Pagan Rome gave the civil authority to the papacy in the year 533, when Justinian issued a decree identifying the papacy as the head of all the churches, and the corrector of heretics.
U drugom retku trinaestoga poglavlja Otkrivenja poganski je Rim predao papinstvu svoju vojnu silu, svoje „oružje“, počevši s Klodvigom, kraljem Franaka (Francuske), godine 496. Poganski je Rim predao papinskom Rimu svoje sjedište vlasti godine 330., kada je car Konstantin napustio grad Rim i premjestio prijestolnicu carskog Rima u grad Konstantinopol. Poganski je Rim predao građansku vlast papinstvu godine 533., kada je Justinijan izdao dekret kojim je papinstvo označeno kao glava svih crkava i ispravitelj krivovjeraca.
In verse thirty-one the “arms” that stand up, are the military forces of pagan Rome, that stood up for the papacy beginning with Clovis in the year 496. For this act the papacy identifies France as the “first born of the Catholic church,” and sometimes as “the eldest daughter of the Catholic church.” In verse thirty-one, after Constantine passed a Sunday law in the year 321, and then moved the capital from the city of Rome unto the city of Constantinople in the year 330, the formerly invincible empire began to crumble, as the first four Trumpet powers of Revelation chapter eight began an ongoing warfare against the Roman empire. The focus of the attacks carried out by the Barbarians and Genseric were directed against the city of Rome, which before the year 330, had been the “sanctuary of strength” for the Roman empire. From the year 330 and onward invading barbarian warfare was to “pollute the sanctuary of strength,” until the “arms” of pagan Rome were to stand up for the papacy, beginning in the year 496.
U trideset i prvom retku „mišice” koje ustaju jesu vojne snage poganskoga Rima, koje su stale u obranu papinstva počevši s Klodvigom godine 496. Zbog toga čina papinstvo poistovjećuje Francusku kao „prvorođenca Katoličke crkve”, a ponekad i kao „najstariju kćer Katoličke crkve”. U trideset i prvom retku, nakon što je Konstantin godine 321. donio zakon o nedjelji, a potom godine 330. premjestio prijestolnicu iz grada Rima u grad Konstantinopol, nekoć nepobjedivo carstvo počelo se urušavati, dok su prve četiri sile truba iz osmog poglavlja Otkrivenja započele trajni rat protiv Rimskoga Carstva. Težište napada koje su izvodili barbari i Genserik bilo je usmjereno protiv grada Rima, koji je prije godine 330. bio „svetište snage” Rimskoga Carstva. Od godine 330. nadalje osvajačko ratovanje barbara trebalo je „oskvrnuti svetište snage”, sve dok „mišice” poganskoga Rima ne ustanu za papinstvo, počevši od godine 496.
Not only did pagan Rome provide three things for the papal power, by giving it the military power, the civil authority and the seat of the city of Rome, but it also removed three horns for papal Rome.
Poganski Rim ne samo da je papinskoj vlasti pružio tri stvari, dajući joj vojnu silu, građansku vlast i sjedište grada Rima, nego je također uklonio i tri roga za papinski Rim.
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things. Daniel 7:8.
Promatrao sam rogove, i gle, među njima izraste drugi, mali rog, pred kojim bijahu iščupana s korijenom tri od prvih rogova; i gle, na tome rogu bijahu oči kao oči čovječje i usta koja govorahu velike stvari. Daniel 7:8.
The three horns that were to be “plucked up” in Daniel chapter seven, represented three primary powers that were resisting the rise of the papacy to power. The last of those three horns was removed when the Goths were driven from the city of Rome in the year 538. They were driven out of the city by the “arms” of pagan Rome, for those “arms” were to place the papacy (the abomination of desolation), on the throne of the then-known world in the year 538.
Tri roga koja su trebala biti „iščupana“ u sedmom poglavlju Daniela predstavljala su tri glavne sile koje su se protivile usponu papinstva na vlast. Posljednji od ta tri roga bio je uklonjen kada su Goti bili protjerani iz grada Rima godine 538. Bili su istjerani iz grada po „mišicama“ poganskoga Rima, jer su te „mišice“ trebale postaviti papinstvo (grozotu pustoši) na prijestolje tada poznatoga svijeta godine 538.
Verse thirty-one of Daniel eleven, identifies four things the “arms” (pagan Rome), were going to do. They were to “stand up” for the papacy, as they did in the year 496. They were to pollute the “sanctuary of strength” as represented by the military struggles that were carried out upon the city of Rome for roughly two centuries. They were to “place” the papacy on the throne of the earth in the year 538, and they were also to “take away the daily.”
Trideset i prvi redak jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela navodi četiri stvari koje će „mišice” (poganski Rim) učiniti. Trebale su „ustati” za papinstvo, kao što su to učinile godine 496. Trebale su oskvrnuti „svetište sile”, kako je prikazano vojnim sukobima koji su se vodili oko grada Rima tijekom približno dvaju stoljeća. Trebale su „postaviti” papinstvo na prijestolje zemlje godine 538., a također su trebale „ukloniti svagdašnju”.
The Hebrew word translated as “take away” in the verse (sur), means “to remove”. By the year 508, the resistance from paganism that existed in the Roman empire, that had been working to prevent the rise of the papacy to power, had been fully brought into subjection or eliminated.
Hebrejska riječ prevedena kao „ukloniti” u retku (sur) znači „odstraniti”. Do godine 508. otpor poganstva koji je postojao u Rimskom Carstvu, a koji je djelovao kako bi spriječio uspon papinstva na vlast, bio je potpuno podvrgnut ili uklonjen.
To identify “the daily,” as Christ’s sanctuary ministry is a false application, but the actual work that was accomplished in Laodicean Adventist history that identified the false application as the truth, was based upon a specific “lie” that was accomplished in the third generation of Adventism. Sister White’s direction that the history of verses thirty to thirty-six will be repeated in the final fulfillment of Daniel eleven, made it impossible for “the scornful men” that rule Jerusalem to place an interpretation upon verse thirty-one without simultaneously rejecting the Spirit of Prophecy.
Poistovjetiti „svagdašnju žrtvu” s Kristovom službom u Svetištu pogrešna je primjena, ali stvarno djelo koje je ostvareno u laodicejskoj adventističkoj povijesti, a koje je tu pogrešnu primjenu prepoznalo kao istinu, bilo je utemeljeno na određenoj „laži” koja se ostvarila u trećem naraštaju adventizma. Uputa sestre White da će se povijest redaka trideset do trideset šest ponoviti u konačnom ispunjenju jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela, učinila je nemogućim da „ljudi podrugljivci” koji vladaju Jeruzalemom nametnu tumačenje trideset i prvog retka, a da pritom istodobno ne odbace Duh proroštva.
The “scornful men” teach that the papacy took away the true understanding of Christ’s sanctuary ministry, by the introduction of the papal mass, which is a counterfeit of Christ’s work in the heavenly sanctuary. If this were the actual meaning of “the daily,” then the “arms” that stood up in verse thirty-one would be the papacy, for the grammatical structure of the verse demands that the “arms” are the power that takes away “the daily.”
„Ljudi podrugljivci“ naučavaju da je papinstvo oduzelo pravo razumijevanje Kristove službe u Svetištu uvođenjem papinske mise, koja je krivotvorina Kristova djela u nebeskom Svetištu. Kad bi to bilo stvarno značenje izraza „svagdašnja služba“, tada bi „mišice“ koje su ustale u trideset i prvom retku bile papinstvo, jer gramatička struktura retka zahtijeva da „mišice“ budu sila koja uklanja „svagdašnju službu“.
In order to uphold their dish of fables, they argue that the papacy (arms) polluted Christ’s heavenly sanctuary. The Hebrew word translated as “sanctuary (miqdash) of strength” is either a pagan sanctuary or God’s sanctuary. If Daniel wanted to convey that God’s sanctuary was to be polluted by the papacy, he would have employed the Hebrew word “qodesh”, which can only represent God’s sanctuary. So where is it recorded in the Bible or the Spirit of Prophecy that the heavenly sanctuary ever was or ever will be, polluted by the papacy?
Kako bi poduprli svoju zdjelu bajki, tvrde da je papinstvo (oružja) onečistilo Kristovo nebesko Svetište. Hebrejska riječ prevedena kao „svetište (miqdash) snage” jest ili pogansko svetište ili Božje Svetište. Da je Daniel htio izraziti da će Božje Svetište biti onečišćeno od strane papinstva, upotrijebio bi hebrejsku riječ „qodesh”, koja može predstavljati samo Božje Svetište. Gdje je, dakle, u Bibliji ili u Duhu proroštva zapisano da je nebesko Svetište ikada bilo ili da će ikada biti onečišćeno od strane papinstva?
Certainly, the sins of Christians are registered in the books of the heavenly sanctuary, but that representation does not mean God’s sanctuary was polluted. The cleansing of the sanctuary represented the cleansing of the record books that are located in the sanctuary. Furthermore, the papal power has never been Christian, so it has never been entered into the books of the investigative judgment. The only judgment identified for the papacy is the executive judgment of God’s wrath.
Svakako, grijesi kršćana zabilježeni su u knjigama nebeskog Svetišta, ali ta činjenica ne znači da je Božje Svetište bilo onečišćeno. Čišćenje Svetišta predstavljalo je čišćenje zapisnih knjiga koje se nalaze u Svetištu. Nadalje, papinska vlast nikada nije bila kršćanska, stoga nikada nije bila unesena u knjige istražnoga suda. Jedini sud koji je prepoznat u vezi s papinstvom jest izvršni sud Božjega gnjeva.
The “arms” also were to “place the abomination that maketh desolate,” which would be what power? What power did the papacy place? And what power is it, in the very opening of verse thirty-one that the papacy stood up for?
„Mišice“ su također trebale „postaviti gadost koja pustoši“; koja bi to sila bila? Koju je silu papinstvo postavilo? I za koju je silu papinstvo ustalo već na samom početku trideset i prvoga retka?
The unlearned in Laodicean Adventism who have placed their eternal life into the hands of men who have been identified as being unable to read the book that is sealed, may be comfortable having their itching ears soothed with that type of corrupted biblical application, but it is even more absurd to try and take the history they must identify to uphold their error, and align it with the last six verses of Daniel eleven.
Neuki u laodikejskom adventizmu, koji su svoj vječni život položili u ruke ljudi za koje je utvrđeno da ne mogu čitati zapečaćenu knjigu, možda se ugodno osjećaju dok im se takvom vrstom iskvarene biblijske primjene škakljaju uši, ali još je apsurdnije pokušavati povijest koju moraju prepoznati kako bi poduprli svoju zabludu uskladiti s posljednjih šest stihova jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela.
In the history leading up to the collapse of the Soviet Union, which can be shown to be represented as the King of the South in verse forty of Daniel eleven, the military strength of the United States stood up for the papacy, as Ronald Reagan formed a secret alliance with the antichrist of Bible prophecy. In so doing, it signaled that any Protestant resistance to the rise of the papacy had been subdued in the United States, as typified by the removal of the resistance of paganism in the year 508. The King of the North (the papacy) in the passage first swept away the Soviet Union in 1989, and did so in partnership with “chariots” and “horseman,” representing the military strength of the United States, and also with the economic strength of the United States as represented by the “ships.”
U povijesti koja je vodila do sloma Sovjetskog Saveza, za koji se može pokazati da je u četrdesetom retku jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela prikazan kao kralj Juga, vojna sila Sjedinjenih Država stala je u obranu papinstva, dok je Ronald Reagan sklopio tajni savez s antikristom biblijskog proroštva. Time je označeno da je svaki protestantski otpor usponu papinstva bio obuzdan u Sjedinjenim Državama, kako je predočeno uklanjanjem otpora poganstva godine 508. Kralj Sjevera (papinstvo) u tom je odlomku najprije pomeo Sovjetski Savez 1989. godine, i to u savezništvu s „kolima” i „konjanicima”, koji predstavljaju vojnu silu Sjedinjenih Država, a također i s gospodarskom snagom Sjedinjenih Država, prikazanom „lađama”.
The United States was the “arms” that stood up for the papacy. Protestantism was taken away, just as the resistance of paganism was subdued by the year 508. In verse forty-one the United States will be conquered by the papacy, and the Constitution of the United States, which is the “sanctuary of strength” of the United States will be overturned as the United States places the King of the North (the papacy), upon the throne of the earth, as did pagan Rome in 538. If you are reading the articles on this website, then you can download The Time of the End magazine, and read a more thorough presentation of the last six verses of Daniel eleven, but we are now simply identifying that the identification of “the daily,” as Christ’s sanctuary ministry is a false application of the symbol. We are doing this in order to show that the false application was brought upon Laodicean Adventism by a purposeful lie.
Sjedinjene Države bile su „ruke” koje su stale u obranu papinstva. Protestantizam je bio uklonjen, kao što je i otpor poganstva bio slomljen do godine 508. U četrdeset i prvom retku Sjedinjene Države bit će osvojene od papinstva, a Ustav Sjedinjenih Država, koji je „svetište snage” Sjedinjenih Država, bit će oboren dok Sjedinjene Države postavljaju Kralja Sjevera (papinstvo) na prijestolje zemlje, kao što je to učinio poganski Rim 538. godine. Ako čitate članke na ovoj internetskoj stranici, tada možete preuzeti časopis Vrijeme svršetka i pročitati temeljitije izlaganje posljednjih šest redaka jedanaestog poglavlja Daniela, no mi sada jednostavno utvrđujemo da je poistovjećivanje „svagdašnje” s Kristovom službom u svetištu pogrešna primjena simbola. To činimo kako bismo pokazali da je ta pogrešna primjena bila nametnuta laodicejskom adventizmu namjernom laži.
We will continue to consider the prophetic lie in the next article.
U sljedećem ćemo članku nastaviti razmatrati proročku laž.
“We have no time to lose. Troublous times are before us. The world is stirred with the spirit of war. Soon the scenes of trouble spoken of in the prophecies will take place. The prophecy in the eleventh of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Much of the history that has taken place in fulfillment of this prophecy will be repeated.
„Nemamo vremena za gubljenje. Pred nama su vremena nevolje. Svijet je uzburkan ratničkim duhom. Uskoro će se odigrati prizori nevolje o kojima se govori u proročanstvima. Proročanstvo iz jedanaestoga poglavlja Daniela gotovo je dosegnulo svoje potpuno ispunjenje. Mnogo od povijesti koja se odigrala kao ispunjenje ovoga proročanstva ponovit će se.“
“In the thirtieth verse a power is spoken of that ‘shall be grieved, and return, and have indignation against the holy covenant: so shall he do; he shall even return, and have intelligence with them that forsake the holy covenant. And arms shall stand on his part, and they shall pollute the sanctuary of strength, and shall take away the daily sacrifice, and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate. And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days. Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed. And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.’ Daniel 11:30–36.
„U tridesetom retku govori se o sili koja će se ‘ožalostiti i vratiti se te gnjev iskazati protiv svetoga saveza; tako će učiniti; vratit će se i sporazumjeti se s onima koji napuštaju sveti savez. I vojske će stajati na njegovoj strani, one će oskvrnuti svetište sile, ukinuti svagdašnju žrtvu i postaviti grozotu pustoši. A one koji bezbožno postupaju protiv saveza iskvarit će laskanjem; ali narod koji poznaje Boga svojega bit će jak i činit će velika djela. I oni koji su razumni među narodom poučit će mnoge; ipak će padati od mača i ognja, u sužanjstvu i od pljačke, mnogo dana. A kad budu padali, bit će im pružena mala pomoć; ali će im se mnogi pridružiti prijetvorno. I neki od razumnih past će da bi bili okušani, očišćeni i ubijeljeni, sve do vremena svršetka; jer je to još za vrijeme određeno. I kralj će činiti po svojoj volji; uzvisit će se i uznositi iznad svakoga boga te će govoriti čudesne stvari protiv Boga nad bogovima, i napredovat će dok se gnjev ne izvrši; jer će se izvršiti ono što je određeno.’ Daniel 11:30–36.“
“Scenes similar to those described in these words will take place. We see evidence that Satan is fast obtaining the control of human minds who have not the fear of God before them. Let all read and understand the prophecies of this book, for we are now entering upon the time of trouble spoken of:
„Prizori slični onima opisanima u ovim riječima dogodit će se. Vidimo dokaze da Sotona brzo zadobiva vlast nad ljudskim umovima onih koji pred sobom nemaju straha Božjega. Neka svi čitaju i razumiju proročanstva ove knjige, jer sada ulazimo u vrijeme nevolje o kojemu je govoreno:“
“‘And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.’ Daniel 12:1–4.” Manuscript Releases, number 13, 394.
„I u ono će vrijeme ustati Mihael, veliki knez koji stoji za sinove tvoga naroda; i nastat će vrijeme nevolje kakve nije bilo otkako je naroda pa do toga vremena; a u ono će vrijeme biti izbavljen tvoj narod, svaki koji se nađe zapisan u knjizi. I mnogi od onih koji spavaju u prahu zemaljskome probudit će se, jedni za život vječni, a drugi na sramotu i vječni prezir. I razumni će sjati kao svjetlost svoda; i oni koji mnoge obrate na pravednost kao zvijezde u vijeke vjekova. A ti, Daniele, zatvori ove riječi i zapečati knjigu do vremena svršetka: mnogi će tumarati amo-tamo, i znanje će se umnožiti.’ Daniel 12:1–4.” Manuscript Releases, broj 13, 394.
