The last promise of the Old Testament is that before the great and terrible day of the Lord, Elijah would come.

약속된 구약성경의 마지막 말씀은, 크고 두려운 여호와의 날이 이르기 전에 엘리야가 올 것이라는 것이다.

Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:4–5.

Mwibuke amategeko ya Mose umugaragu wanjye, ayo namutegetse i Horebu ku bw’Abisirayeli bose, hamwe n’amategeko n’imanza. Dore, nzaboherereza Eliya umuhanuzi mbere y’uko haza umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka; kandi azagarura umutima wa ba se ku bana babo, n’umutima w’abana ku ba se, kugira ngo ntazaza ngo nkubite isi umuvumo. Malaki 4:4–5.

The Elijah that comes in advance of “the great and dreadful day of the Lord,” is an individual messenger, and also the movement associated with the message the messenger proclaims. The Elijah that is sent is therefore the one hundred and forty-four thousand who do not taste death, just as Enoch and Elijah represent. They are those who are lifted up as an ensign at the soon-coming Sunday law.

Eliya ari we uze mbere y’“umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Umwami,” ni intumwa y’umuntu ku giti cye, kandi ni n’umuryango ujyanye n’ubutumwa iyo ntumwa itangaza. Bityo rero, Eliya woherejwe ni ba bihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bine batarya urupfu, nk’uko Enoki na Eliya babigereranya. Abo ni bo bazamurwa nk’ikimenyetso ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba.

The last day Elijah was also represented by John the Baptist, but John did not represent the one hundred and forty-four thousand. He represented those who join the movement and accept the message of the last day messenger, who are then murdered by the papacy in the hour of the Sunday law crisis that begins at the soon coming Sunday law and ends when Michael stands up and the papacy comes to its end with none to help.

Eliya wa siku ya mwisho aliwakilishwa pia na Yohana Mbatizaji, lakini Yohana hakuwawakilisha wale mia moja na arobaini na nne elfu. Yeye aliwawakilisha wale wanaojiunga na vuguvugu hilo na kuikubali ujumbe wa mjumbe wa siku ya mwisho, ambao kisha huuawa na upapa katika saa ya msukosuko wa sheria ya Jumapili unaoanza kwa sheria ya Jumapili iliyo karibu kuja na kuishia Mikaeli asimamapo, na upapa kufikia mwisho wake pasipo mtu wa kuusaidia.

Elijah is represented on Mount Carmel and John is represented in Herod’s banquet hall. Those two historical witnesses identify the two groups of God’s last day people represented in Revelation chapter seven. The one hundred and forty-four thousand and the great multitude align with Mount Carmel and Herod’s birthday party. Those two prophetic lines provide a sound point of reference to carefully identify the elements of the eighth head, that is of the seven heads in Revelation seventeen, with enough prophetic detail to clarify how and why the last president, which is the eighth president that is of the seven, becomes the great dictator of the United States in the last movements of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy.

Elija awonekera pa Phiri la Karmeli, ndipo Yohane awonekera m’nyumba ya phwando la Herode. Mboni ziwiri za m’mbiri zimenezo zidziwitsa magulu awiri a anthu a Mulungu a masiku otsiriza oimiridwa m’chaputala chachisanu ndi chiwiri cha Chivumbulutso.

At the Sunday law the threefold union is accomplished.

Di qanûna Yekşemê de, yekîtiya sêalî tê pêkanîn.

“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.

“Papalaka muñu go lawa ka lela Dii ilá tánga ndáxnuu tsa, tsaʼa nchiñu ñaʼan de, ñaʼa táchi yo kuu savi yivi yo kuu kuxiín ndeʼe ñaʼa tuʼun ndakuaá. Kuee Protestantism kuu ndáka ndaʼa de yáa ini yavi kaʼnu ñaʼa kaʼan ña Roman power, kuee de kuu sáa ndaʼa de yáa siki nuu yavi ñaʼa kaʼan ña Spiritualism, kuee, nuu ndaʼa ñaʼan uni ñaʼa yó, nchiñu yo kuu sátuʼun de nduu ini tuʼun ña Constitution de kuaa ña uu gobierno protestante ndí republican, ta kuu sáa de yáa ña ka propagá falsedades ta engaños papales, jini yo kuu kaʼan ña tiempo vaʼa saa ndixeʼe Satanás ña maravillosamente, ta ña fin íyó yachi.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.

Yet in this illustration there is a sequence, and that sequence is a subject of the inspired word. It is an event that happens at the decree, which in one sense is a singular event, but it is actually a very careful sequence of events. At the “decree” the United States ceases to be the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, which means that it is there that the seventh kingdom begins, but the seventh kingdom agrees to give their kingdom unto the beast. When the false prophet is defeated, the dragon takes its position, and immediately gives half its kingdom to the beast.

Ndzi hambeta ndzi vula leswaku eka xifaniso lexi ku ni nxaxamelo, naswona nxaxamelo wolowo i nhlokomhaka ya rito leri huhuteriweke. I xiendlakalo lexi humelelaka hi nkarhi wa xileriso, lexi hi ndlela yin’wana xi nga xiendlakalo xin’we ntsena, kambe entiyisweni i nxaxamelo wa swiendlakalo leswi lulamisiweke hi vukheta swinene. Hi nkarhi wa “xileriso” United States yi tshika ku va mfumo wa vuntlhanu na wun’we wa vuprofeta bya Bibele, leswi vulaka leswaku hi kona laha mfumo wa vunkombo wu sungulaka kona, kambe mfumo wa vunkombo wu pfumela ku nyika mfumo wa wona eka xivandzana. Loko muprofeta wa mavunwa a hluriwa, dragona yi teka xiyimo xa yona, kutani hi ku hatlisa yi nyika hafu ya mfumo wa yona eka xivandzana.

At Mount Carmel, there were four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal, and there four hundred prophets of the grove who were in Samaria eating at Jezebel’s table.

Pa Mlima Karmeli, kulikuwa na manabii mia nne na hamsini wa Baali, na pia manabii mia nne wa Ashera waliokuwa Samaria wakila mezani pa Yezebeli.

Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel’s table. 1 Kings 18:19.

이제 그런즉 사람을 보내어 온 이스라엘을 갈멜 산으로 내게 모으고, 바알의 선지자 사백오십 명과 아세라의 선지자 사백 명, 곧 이세벨의 상에서 먹는 자들을 모으라. 열왕기상 18:19.

Elijah identifies the confrontation at Mount Carmel as a controversy, not only the question of who was the true God, but also that it was a controversy over who was the true prophet.

ئێلیا ڕووبەڕووبوونەوەکەی سەر شاخی کارمێل وەک ناکۆکییەک دیاری دەکات؛ نەک تەنها پرسیاری ئەوەی کێ خودای ڕاستەقینە بوو، بەڵکو هەروەها ئەوەش کە ناکۆکییەک بوو لەسەر ئەوەی کێ پێغەمبەری ڕاستەقینە بوو.

Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 1 Kings 18:22.

Awo Eliya ka kɔ̀ awọn ènìyàn náà pé, Èmi, àní èmi nìkan ṣoṣo, ni mo kù sílẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wòlíì Olúwa; ṣùgbọ́n àwọn wòlíì Baali jẹ́ ọ̀ọ́dúnrún mẹ́rìnlélọ́gọ́rin [450] ọkùnrin. 1 Ọba 18:22.

When Elijah’s offering was consumed by the fire that came down out of heaven, he then slew the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal with his own hands.

Elia mu ikimazi c’ishikanwa ciwe cari kimarwe n’umuriro wavuye mw’ijuru, aca yica n’amaboko yiwe bwite ba bahanuzi ba Baali amajana ane na mirongo itanu.

And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. 1 Kings 18:40.

Elia akawaambia, Wakamate manabii wa Baali; asitoroke hata mmoja wao. Wakawakamata; naye Elia akawatelemsha mpaka kijito cha Kishoni, akawaua huko. 1 Wafalme 18:40.

Baal was a false masculine deity, and the four hundred prophets of the grove, who were still with Jezebel, eating at her table in the city of Samaria were the prophets of the female deity, Ashtaroth. The female deity survived Elijah’s slaughter of the prophets of Mount Carmel.

Baal ulikuwa mungu wa kiume wa uongo, na wale manabii mia nne wa shamba takatifu, ambao walikuwa bado pamoja na Yezebeli, wakila mezani pake katika mji wa Samaria, walikuwa manabii wa mungu wa kike, Ashtarothi. Mungu huyo wa kike alinusurika katika machinjo ya Eliya dhidi ya manabii wa Mlima Karmeli.

“The people upon the mountain prostrate themselves in terror and awe before the unseen God. They cannot look upon the bright, consuming fire sent from Heaven. They fear that they will be consumed in their apostasy and sins. They cry out with one voice, which resounds over the mountain, and echoes to the plains below them with terrible distinctness, ‘The Lord, he is the God; the Lord, he is the God.’ Israel is at last aroused and undeceived. They see their sin and how greatly they have dishonored God. Their anger is aroused against the prophets of Baal. With fearful terror, Ahab and Baal’s priests witnessed the wonderful exhibition of Jehovah’s power. Again is heard, in startling words of command, the voice of Elijah to the people, ‘Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape.’ And the people were ready to obey the word of Elijah. They seized the false prophets who had deluded them, and brought them to the brook Kishon, and there Elijah, with his own hand, slew these idolatrous priests.” Review and Herald, October 7, 1873.

“Vanhu va pa gomo vanozvikotamisa pasi nokutya nokushamiswa pamberi paMwari asingaoneki. Havagoni kutarisa moto wakajeka, unopedza, wakatumwa uchibva Kudenga.

Mount Carmel typifies the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. It is then that the ensign of the one hundred and forty-four thousand (typified by Elijah), is lifted up. It is there that the genuine Protestant horn is distinctly manifested in contrast with the counterfeit Protestant horn, who is in Samaria, eating Jezebel’s diet. It is there that the Republican horn that had become the horn of both church and state leading up to Mount Carmel comes to its end as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. What remains then is Ahab, and his tenfold nation, and Jezebel, who has been hiding in Samaria, while she dines with apostate Protestants. The sixth kingdom is finished, and the rain then comes without measure.

Karimeli Gama imanisha sheria ya Jumapili iliyo karibu kuja katika Marekani. Ndipo bendera ya wale mia moja arobaini na nne elfu (waliowakilishwa na Eliya), huinuliwa. Hapo ndipo pembe ya Kiprotestanti ya kweli hudhihirishwa waziwazi kwa kulinganishwa na pembe bandia ya Kiprotestanti, aliye katika Samaria, akila chakula cha Yezebeli. Hapo ndipo pembe ya Kirepublican ambayo ilikuwa imekuwa pembe ya kanisa na serikali vyote viwili kuelekea Karimeli Gama hufikia mwisho wake kama ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia. Basi kinachobaki ni Ahabu, na taifa lake la namna kumi, na Yezebeli, ambaye amekuwa akijificha katika Samaria, huku akila pamoja na Waprotestanti waasi-imani. Ufalme wa sita umekamilika, na ndipo mvua huja bila kipimo.

At Herod’s birthday party, Elijah, represented by John the Baptist is in the Roman prison awaiting deliverance or death. There are no prophets of Baal to accomplish the dance of deception, just Salome, Jezebel’s daughter. Herod and his royal friends are drunk with the wine of Babylon, for his birthday also represents the Sunday law, and all nations began to drink the wine of Babylon on September 11, 2001, well before the soon coming Sunday law.

Ku mabingwa ya siku ya kuzaliwa ya Herode, Eliya, akiwakilishwa na Yohana Mbatizaji, yumo gerezani mwa Warumi, akingoja ukombozi au mauti. Hakuna manabii wa Baali wa kutekeleza ngoma ya udanganyifu, ila Salome tu, binti ya Yezebeli. Herode na rafiki zake wa kifalme wamelewa kwa divai ya Babeli, kwa maana siku yake ya kuzaliwa nayo inawakilisha sheria ya Jumapili, na mataifa yote yakaanza kuinywa divai ya Babeli tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, muda mrefu kabla ya sheria ya Jumapili iliyo karibu kuja.

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. Revelation 18:1–3.

Na baada ya hayo nikaona malaika mwingine akishuka kutoka mbinguni, mwenye mamlaka makuu; nayo dunia ikaangazwa na utukufu wake. Akalia kwa nguvu kwa sauti kuu, akisema, Babeli mkuu ameanguka, ameanguka, naye amekuwa maskani ya pepo, na ngome ya kila roho mchafu, na kizimba cha kila ndege mchafu na achukiwaye. Kwa maana mataifa yote wamekunywa divai ya ghadhabu ya uasherati wake, na wafalme wa dunia wamefanya uasherati pamoja naye, nao wafanya biashara wa dunia wamepata utajiri kwa wingi wa anasa zake. Ufunuo 18:1–3.

These three verses were fulfilled when the great buildings of New York, the twin towers were thrown down by a touch of God.

Mavhesi mararu aya atandenuhiwíra pa New York, matora mawiri, pakakandwa pasi nokubata kwaMwari.

“Now comes the word that I have declared that New York is to be swept away by a tidal wave? This I have never said. I have said, as I looked at the great buildings going up there, story after story, ‘What terrible scenes will take place when the Lord shall arise to shake terribly the earth! Then the words of Revelation 18:1–3 will be fulfilled.’ The whole of the eighteenth chapter of Revelation is a warning of what is coming on the earth. But I have no light in particular in regard to what is coming on New York, only that I know that one day the great buildings there will be thrown down by the turning and overturning of God’s power. From the light given me, I know that destruction is in the world. One word from the Lord, one touch of his mighty power, and these massive structures will fall. Scenes will take place the fearfulness of which we cannot imagine.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.

“ئایا هەنووکە ئەو قسەیە دێت کە من ڕاگەیاندووم نیویۆرک دەبێت بە شەپۆلی گەورەی ئاو بسڕدرێتەوە؟ من هەرگیز ئەوەم نەگوتووە. من گوتووم، کاتێک سەیرم دەکرد ئەو بینا گەورانەی لەوێ دەسازدران، نۆمەر بە نۆمەر، ‘چەند دیمەنە ترسناکەکان ڕوودەدەن کاتێک یەزدان هەستێت بۆ ئەوەی زەوی بە شێوەیەکی ترسناک بجوڵێنێت! ئەوسا وشەکانی ئاشکراکردن 18:1–3 تەواو دەبن.’ تەواوی بەشی هەژدەی ئاشکراکردن ئاگادارکردنەوەیە لەوەی کە دێتە سەر زەوی. بەڵام من هیچ ڕووناکییەکی تایبەتم نییە سەبارەت بەوەی چی دێتە سەر نیویۆرک، تەنها ئەوەندە دەزانم کە ڕۆژێک ئەو بینا گەورانەی لەوێ بە هۆی وەرگێڕان و هەڵگەڕاندنی هێزی خودا دەڕووخێندرێن. لە ڕووناکییەکەی پێم دراوە، دەزانم کە وێرانکاری لە جیهاندا هەیە. یەک وشە لە لایەن یەزدانەوە، یەک دەست لە هێزی بەهێزی ئەو، و ئەم سازە قەبە و گەورانە دەکەون. دیمەنەکانێک ڕوودەدەن کە ترسناکییەکەیان لە توانای خەیاڵکردنی ئێمە دەرەوەیە.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.

The soon coming Sunday law is represented by the second voice of Revelation chapter eighteen, and it represents Ahab’s Mount Carmel, and Herod’s birthday party. Herodias, who is also Jezebel, is not present at Herod’s drunken party, just as Jezebel was absent from Mount Carmel. Until the Sunday law, she has been forgotten during the seventy symbolic years of the reign of the earth beast, the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. When Jezebel received her deadly wound in 1798 and 1799, the sixth kingdom (the United States) began its term as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. When the sixth kingdom ends, she then returns and begins to sing her songs and commits fornication with all the nations on earth.

Law ya Sande ya bino kwiza mosika te elakisami na mongongo ya mibale ya Emoniseli mokapo ya zomi na mwambe, mpe yango ezali komonisa Ngomba Karmeli ya Ahaba, mpe fɛti ya mokolo ya mbotama ya Herode. Herodiase, oyo azali mpe Jezabele, azali te wana na fɛti ya molangwa ya Herode, kaka ndenge Jezabele azalaki kozanga na Ngomba Karmeli. Kino na law ya Sande, basilaki kobosana ye na boumeli ya bambula ntuku nsambo ya elilingi ya bokonzi ya nyama ya mabele, bokonzi ya motoba ya esakweli ya Biblia. Tango Jezabele azwaki mpota na ye ya koboma na 1798 mpe 1799, bokonzi ya motoba (Etazini ya Amerika) ebandaki eleko na yango lokola bokonzi ya motoba ya esakweli ya Biblia. Tango bokonzi ya motoba esili, bongo azongi mpe abandi koyemba banzembo na ye mpe kosala pite ná bikólo nyonso ya mabele.

Her songs of fornication and wine was prophetically initiated on September 11, 2001, but that was simply the period of preparation, as had been represented by the thirty years from 508, unto 538, the first time she took the throne. Up until the Sunday law, when the sixth kingdom is slain by the hands of Elijah, she has been hidden in Samaria. At that point John the Baptist is being held in her prison, awaiting either deliverance or death.

تەرانەکانی زیناکاری و شەرابی ئەو بە شێوەیەکی پێشبینی‌کراو لە 11ی سپتامبری 2001 دەستی پێکرد، بەڵام ئەوە تەنها ماوەی ئامادەکاری بوو، وەک ئەو سی ساڵەی نێوان 508 تا 538 کە نواندرا بوو، یەکەم جار کە ئەو تەختی وەرگرت. هەتا پێش یاسای یەکشەممە، کاتێک شانشینی شەشەم بە دەستی ئیلیا دەکوژرێت، ئەو لە سامیرەدا شاراوە بووە. لەو خاڵەدا یۆحنای لەئاوه‌دەرخستندا لە زیندانەکەی ئەو نگەه‌دراوە، چاوەڕێی یان ڕزگاربوون یان مردن دەکات.

Herod and his noble friends were drunk with the wine of Babylon, when Salome, the daughter of Herodias (Jezebel), performed her highly seductive dance, and Herod manifests his lustful and incestual desires. He is fully captivated by his step-daughters’ sexual overtures, and offers her up to half his kingdom.

हेरोद और उसके कुलीन मित्र बाबुल की दाखमधु से मतवाले थे, जब हेरोदियास (ईज़ेबेल) की पुत्री सलोमी ने अपना अत्यन्त मोहमयी नृत्य किया, और हेरोद ने अपनी कामुक और रक्तसंबंध-विरुद्ध अभिलाषाओं को प्रकट किया। वह अपनी सौतेली पुत्री के लैंगिक प्रलोभनों से पूर्णतः मोहित हो गया, और उसे अपने राज्य का आधा भाग तक देने की प्रतिज्ञा की।

And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee; And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee. And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom. And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist. And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath’s sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her. And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison, And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother. Mark 6:21–28.

Alipoifika siku iliyo mwafaka, Herode alipofanya karamu siku ya kuzaliwa kwake kwa wakuu wake, na majemadari, na watu mashuhuri wa Galilaya; na binti yake huyo Herodia alipoingia, akacheza, akampendeza Herode na wale walioketi pamoja naye, mfalme akamwambia yule kijana mwanamke, Niombe cho chote utakacho, nami nitakupa. Naye akamwapia, Lo lote utakaloniiomba, nitakupa, hata nusu ya ufalme wangu. Naye akatoka, akamwambia mama yake, Niombe nini? Naye akasema, Kichwa cha Yohana Mbatizaji. Naye akaingia mara ile kwa haraka kwa mfalme, akaomba, akisema, Nataka unipe sasa hivi katika sinia kichwa cha Yohana Mbatizaji. Mfalme akahuzunika sana; lakini kwa ajili ya kiapo chake, na kwa ajili yao walioketi pamoja naye, hakutaka kumkatalia. Mara mfalme akamtuma askari wa walinzi, akaamuru kichwa chake kiletewe; naye akaenda, akamkata kichwa gerezani, akakileta kichwa chake katika sinia, akampa yule kijana mwanamke; na yule kijana mwanamke akampa mama yake. Marko 6:21–28.

The first voice of Revelation eighteen sounded on September 11, 2001, and the second voice sounds at the soon coming Sunday law. In the history represented in John chapter six, the first voice of 2001 was the voice of Christ informing His disciples that they must eat His flesh and drink His blood, for He was the true Bread of Heaven. That period began in Galilee and ended with a purging of His disciples who turned away from Him in John chapter SIX, verse SIXTY-SIX. That history began at Galilee with a dietary test, and ended at the enforcement of the mark of the beast, as typified by the number of the pope’s name, which is SIX, SIX, SIX. Galilee means “turning point,” and September 11, 2001 was a prophetic “turning point” (Galilee), and Herod’s birthday was with the leadership of Galilee. The beginning voice of Revelation chapter eighteen, and the ending voice of Revelation eighteen, are both represented by Galilee, which is a turning point.

Ishwi rya mbere rya Ibyahishuwe igice cya cumi n’umunani ryumvikanye ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001, kandi ishwi rya kabiri ryumvikana ku itegeko rya vuba rizaza ryo ku cyumweru.

“There are lessons to be learned from the history of the past; and attention is called to these, that all may understand that God works on the same lines now that He ever has done. His hand is seen in His work and among the nations now, just the same as it has been ever since the gospel was first proclaimed to Adam in Eden.

“Mu mateka y’ibihe byahise harimo amasomo akwiriye kwigishwa; kandi abantu bahamagarirwa kuyitaho, kugira ngo bose basobanukirwe yuko Imana ikora muri iki gihe ikurikije umurongo umwe nk’uwo yahoranye iteka. Ukuboko kwayo kugaragarira mu murimo wayo no mu mahanga no muri iki gihe, nk’uko kwahoraga kugaragara uhereye igihe ubutumwa bwiza bwabanje kwamamazwa kuri Adamu muri Edeni.

“There are periods which are turning points in the history of nations and of the church. In the providence of God, when these different crises arrive, the light for that time is given. If it is received, there is spiritual progress; if it is rejected, spiritual declension and shipwreck follow. The Lord in His word has opened up the aggressive work of the gospel as it has been carried on in the past, and will be in the future, even to the closing conflict, when Satanic agencies will make their last wonderful movement.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.

“Ku nă periodi kar aturning pointi in istoriya de nasyoni et de eklesia. In providensia de Deo, cuando ta diferenti krisi ta yega, la luz pa ese tempo ta dadu. Si e ta risibidu, tin progreso spiritual; si e ta rechasá, dekadensia spiritual et naufragio ta sigui. Señor, den Su Palabra, a revelá e obra agresivo di evangelio manera cu el a ser llevá adelante den pasado, et lo ta ser den futuro, asta e konflikto final, cuando agensianan satanásiko lo haci su último movimiento maravioso.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.

Galilee at 2001, and Galilee at the soon coming Sunday law, identify when the light of the latter rain is poured out. In 2001 it was a measured outpouring, but at the second voice it is poured out without measure, as represented by the tremendous outpouring after Elijah slew the prophets of Baal, which occurred at Herod’s birthday party. Herod’s birthday identifies the birth of the seventh kingdom of Bible prophecy, which immediately follows the death of the preceding kingdom. The United States began to reign in 1798, at the death of the fifth kingdom, and at the death of the prophets of Baal, the seventh kingdom’s birthday has arrived. That seventh kingdom is represented by Ahab’s tenfold kingdom of the north, and by Herod, a representative of the tenfold northern kingdom of pagan Rome.

Galilea hi 2001, i Galilea hi Zakon ya Siku ya Jumapili iliyo karibu kuja, vinatambulisha wakati nuru ya mvua ya masika ya mwisho inapomiminwa. Mwaka 2001 kulikuwa na umiminiko wa kipimo, lakini katika sauti ya pili humiminwa bila kipimo, kama inavyowakilishwa na umiminiko mkuu sana baada ya Eliya kuwaua manabii wa Baali, jambo lililotukia katika sherehe ya siku ya kuzaliwa ya Herode. Siku ya kuzaliwa ya Herode inatambulisha kuzaliwa kwa ufalme wa saba wa unabii wa Biblia, ambao hufuata mara moja kifo cha ufalme uliotangulia. Marekani ilianza kutawala mwaka 1798, katika kifo cha ufalme wa tano, na katika kifo cha manabii wa Baali, siku ya kuzaliwa ya ufalme wa saba imewadia. Ufalme huo wa saba unawakilishwa na ufalme wa kaskazini wa Ahabu wenye sehemu kumi, na na Herode, mwakilishi wa ufalme wa kaskazini wenye sehemu kumi wa Rumi ya kipagani.

And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Revelation 17:16–18.

Na pembe kumi ulizoziona juu ya yule mnyama, hao watamchukia yule kahaba, nao watamfanya ukiwa na uchi, nao watakula nyama yake, na kumteketeza kwa moto. Kwa maana Mungu ametia mioyoni mwao kuyatimiza mapenzi yake, na kuwa na nia moja, na kuupa ufalme wao yule mnyama, hata maneno ya Mungu yatimizwe. Na yule mwanamke uliyemwona ni mji ule mkuu, wenye kuwatawala wafalme wa dunia. Ufunuo 17:16–18.

Herod agrees to fulfill the oath he made to Salome, and give her the head of John, and his oath was represented as up to half his kingdom. The ten kings of the United Nations, in spite of hating the whore, agree to give their seventh kingdom unto the eighth head, that is of the seven previous heads. They agree to a kingdom that is premised upon the combination of the worldwide State, being combined with her worldwide Church. But the marriage is a Latin marriage, not an English marriage, for their marriage is represented by the “woman” reigning “over the kings.” In a Latin marriage the family retains the woman’s surname, not the mans’, and the name of this twofold marriage is an important element of the prophetic narrative.

Herode akubali kutimiza kiapo alichompa Salome, na kumpa kichwa cha Yohana, na kiapo chake kiliwakilishwa kuwa ni hadi nusu ya ufalme wake. Wafalme kumi wa Umoja wa Mataifa, ijapokuwa wanamchukia yule kahaba, wanakubali kuutoa ufalme wao wa saba kwa kile kichwa cha nane, ambacho ni cha vile vichwa saba vilivyotangulia. Wanakubali ufalme uliojengwa juu ya muungano wa Serikali ya ulimwengu wote, ikiunganishwa pamoja na Kanisa lake la ulimwengu wote. Lakini ndoa hiyo ni ndoa ya Kilatini, si ndoa ya Kiingereza, kwa maana ndoa yao inawakilishwa na “mwanamke” anayetawala “juu ya wafalme.” Katika ndoa ya Kilatini jamaa hubaki na jina la ukoo la mwanamke, si la mwanamume, na jina la ndoa hii ya aina mbili ni sehemu muhimu ya simulizi ya kinabii.

“Kings and rulers and governors have placed upon themselves the brand of antichrist, and are represented as the dragon who goes to make war with the saints—with those who keep the commandments of God and who have the faith of Jesus.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.

“Mahanga na vatavala na matanitu kei ira na kovana sa vakacolata vei ira na ivakatakilakila ni meca i Karisito, ka ra sa vakatakarakarataki me ra na gata levu sa lako me valuti ira na yalosavasava—ira era muria na vunau ni Kalou ka taura tiko na vakabauti Jisu.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.

The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. . .. And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem: When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning. Isaiah 2:1–3, 4:1–4.

Izaya, mwana wa Amozi, neno aliloona kuhusu Yuda na Yerusalemu. Tena itakuwa katika siku za mwisho, ya kwamba mlima wa nyumba ya Bwana utawekwa imara juu ya vilele vya milima, nao utainuliwa juu kuliko vilima; na mataifa yote yatamiminika kuujia. Na watu wengi wataenda na kusema, Njoni, twendeni juu mlimani kwa Bwana, katika nyumba ya Mungu wa Yakobo; naye atatufundisha njia zake, nasi tutatembea katika mapito yake; kwa maana katika Sayuni itatoka sheria, na neno la Bwana katika Yerusalemu.... Na katika siku hiyo wanawake saba watamshika mwanamume mmoja, wakisema, Tutakula chakula chetu wenyewe, na kuvaa mavazi yetu wenyewe; ila na tuitwe kwa jina lako, ili aibu yetu iondoke. Katika siku hiyo chipukizi la Bwana litakuwa zuri na la utukufu, na matunda ya nchi yatakuwa bora na ya kupendeza kwa hao waliopona wa Israeli. Tena itakuwa, ya kwamba yeye aliyebaki katika Sayuni, na yeye aliyesalia katika Yerusalemu, ataitwa mtakatifu, naam, kila mmoja aliyeandikwa miongoni mwa walio hai katika Yerusalemu: hapo Bwana atakapokuwa ameosha uchafu wa binti za Sayuni, na kuisafisha damu ya Yerusalemu kutoka katikati yake kwa roho ya hukumu, na kwa roho ya kuteketeza. Isaya 2:1–3, 4:1–4.
