Those on the wrong side of this final controversy of the symbol of Rome lean upon a flawed application of a triple application of prophecy as they suggest that the three Rome’s are defined by the three Sunday laws of the years 321, 538 and the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. In doing so they place an incorrect slant upon the rule and the prophetic history they select, as was also done in the controversy over the four insects of Joel. The four generations followed by four devouring insects in the first six verses of Joel address how God’s people are progressively decimated over four generations, and that the decimation was accomplished by Adventism’s acceptance of the theology of Rome and apostate Protestantism.

Abali ku luse lw’oludda olutali lutuufu mu mpaka eno ey’enkomerero ey’akabonero ka Rooma beesigamira ku nkola erimu obulema ey’okukozesa obunnabbi emirundi esatu, bwe balowooza nti Rooma essatu zitegeezebwa amateeka ga Ssande gasatu ag’emyaka 321, 538, n’etteeka lya Ssande erigenda okujja amangu mu Amerika. Mu kukola bwe batyo, bateeka obusukkirivu obutali butuufu ku tteeka n’ebyafaayo eby’obunnabbi bye balonda, nga bwe kyakolebwa ne mu mpaka ezakwata ku biwuka ebina ebya Yoweeri. Emirembe ena, eragiddwaako ebisolo ebina ebirya mu nnyiriri omukaaga ez’olubereberye eza Yoweeri, gyogerako engeri abantu ba Katonda gye bazikirizibwamu mpola mpola okuyita mu mirembe ena, era nti okuzikirira okwo kwatuukirizibwa olw’okukkiriza kwa Adventism endowooza z’eddiini eza Rooma n’Obupolotesitante obwajeemu.

In the current controversy those who attempt to employ the Sunday law to define the three Rome’s, avoid the truth that there are actually four Sunday laws that are identified in God’s prophetic Word, and that the year 321 represents the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States, and the Sunday law of 538 typifies the Sunday law which is enforced upon all the nations of the world. Four Sunday laws does not identify three Sunday laws, especially when the third manifestation in a triple application of prophecy represents the final fulfillment. The soon-coming Sunday law in the United States is not the final Sunday law, it actually marks the beginning of a series of Sunday laws as each nation on the globe progressively accepts the mark of papal authority.

Mu mpakaano oguliwo kaakano, abo abagezaako okukozesa etteeka ly’olunaku lwa Sande okunnyonnyola Roma essatu, beewala amazima nti ddala waliwo amateeka ga Sande ana agategeezebwa mu Kigambo kya Katonda eky’obunnabbi, era nti omwaka 321 gukiikirira etteeka lya Sande eriri kumpi okujja mu United States, ate etteeka lya Sande erya 538 lifaanana etteeka lya Sande eriteekebwa ku mawanga gonna ag’ensi. Amateeka ga Sande ana tegannyonnyola mateeka ga Sande ssatu, naddala ng’okwolesebwa okw’okusatu mu nkola ey’emirundi esatu egy’okukozesa obunnabbi kikiikirira okutuukirira okw’enkomerero. Etteeka lya Sande eriri kumpi okujja mu United States si lye tteeka lya Sande ery’enkomerero; mu butuufu lye libonero ly’entandikwa y’omuddiring’anwa gw’amateeka ga Sande nga buli ggwanga ku nsi bwe lyeyongera okukkiriza akabonero k’obuyinza bwa paapa.

Those who were awakened in July, 2023, are required to understand that the prophetic test that confronts them occurs during the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, and that during that outpouring one class is receiving the “oil,” and the other class is receiving “strong delusion.” The primary representation of those who receive strong delusion is represented in the very chapter where the expression strong delusion is located, and in that chapter the truth that is either loved or rejected is the truth which defines the prophetic relationship between pagan Rome and papal Rome.

2023년 7월에 깨어난 자들은, 자기들에게 직면한 예언적 시험이 성령의 부어 주심 동안에 일어난다는 것과, 그 부어 주심 동안 한 부류는 “기름”을 받고 다른 한 부류는 “강한 미혹”을 받고 있다는 것을 이해해야 한다. 강한 미혹을 받는 자들에 대한 주된 표상은 바로 “강한 미혹”이라는 표현이 기록된 그 장 자체에서 제시되며, 그 장에서 사랑받거나 혹은 거절되는 진리는 이교 로마와 교황 로마 사이의 예언적 관계를 규정하는 진리이다.

The prophetic relationship between 321 and 538 is shown by the prophetic relationship between the church of Pergamos and the church of Thyatira. In the last days, pagan Rome, represented by 321 and Pergamos, is a symbol of the United States, and papal Rome, represented by 538 and Thyatira, is a symbol of Modern Rome.

321와 538 사이의 예언적 관계는 버가모 교회와 두아디라 교회 사이의 예언적 관계를 통하여 나타난다. 마지막 날들에 321과 버가모로 표상되는 이교 로마는 미국의 상징이며, 538과 두아디라로 표상되는 교황권 로마는 현대 로마의 상징이다.

The first Rome of 321 was a singular power state, and the second Rome of 538 was a dual power representing a combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship. The third and final Rome, which is modern Rome, is a threefold power that consists of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.

Roma ya kwanza ya mwaka 321 ilikuwa dola ya mamlaka moja ya kipekee, na Roma ya pili ya mwaka 538 ilikuwa mamlaka ya aina mbili iliyowakilisha muungano wa kanisa na dola, huku kanisa likiitawala hiyo mahusiano. Roma ya tatu na ya mwisho, ambayo ni Roma ya kisasa, ni mamlaka ya namna tatu inayoundwa na yule joka, yule mnyama, na yule nabii wa uongo.

Paul taught that to not understand the prophetic and historic relationship of pagan Rome (the dragon) and papal Rome (the beast) was to manifest a hatred of the truth which brought about strong delusion. All the prophets, including Paul were more specifically addressing the last days, so the relationship between the two powers in Paul’s history represents the relationship between the three powers of Modern Rome in the last days. To reject the prophetic relationship that “forms” the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet in the last days is to secure strong delusion for yourself.

Paulo afundishize ukuti ukushileumfwa ubupilibulo bwa buprofeti no bucilamo bwa kale ubupelamfumu pakati pa Roma ya bapagani (iciswango) na Roma ya bupapa (ciswango) kwali kulangisha ukukana ukutemwa icine, ico cileleta ubukopo ubukali. Bonse ba profeti, na Paulo pamo, balelandanga sana pa nshiku sha kulekelesha; e ico ubushininkisho pakati pa aya amaka yabili mu calo ca kale ico Paulo alelandapo bupela icilangililo ca bushininkisho pakati pa amaka yatatu aya Roma ya kale-kale mu nshiku sha kulekelesha. Ukukana ubushininkisho bwa buprofeti ubwa “umba” ulwampano lwa bitatu lwa ciswango, ciswango, na kasesema wa bufi mu nshiku sha kulekelesha, nkusuminisha we mwine ukuti ubukopo ubukali bukupate.

Uriah Smith’s private interpretation of the king of the north represented a “cause” that produced an “effect.” But the class that is on the wrong side of the controversies about Rome is specifically identified as being unable to reason from cause to effect. Smith did not see that his flawed application of the king of the north would produce a prophetic platform which would lead him to also misrepresent the sixth plague, where there is a warning to keep or lose the garment of Christ’s righteousness.

Kusobanura kwa bwite kwa Uriah Smith ku byerekeye umwami wo mu majyaruguru kwagereranyaga “impamvu” yabyazaga “ingaruka.” Ariko itsinda riri ku ruhande rutari rwo mu mpaka zerekeye Roma risobanurwa by’umwihariko ko ridashoboye gutekereza rishingiye ku mpamvu no ku ngaruka. Smith ntiyabonye ko gushyira nabi mu mwanya umwami wo mu majyaruguru byari kubyara urubuga rw’ubuhanuzi rwari kumuyobora no kugoreka isobanuro ry’icyorezo cya gatandatu, aho harimo umuburo wo kugumana cyangwa gutakaza umwambaro w’ubutungane bwa Kristo.

As with Paul’s emphasis in 2 Thessalonians, John in chapter sixteen of Revelation and the sixth plague emphasizes the necessity of understanding who the three powers who lead the world to Armageddon are. Smith’s flawed application of the king of the north provides witness to an inability to rightly apply types and antitypes.

Nko Pawulo yashimangiye mu 2 Abatesalonike, ni ko na Yohana mu gice cya cumi na gatandatu cy’Ibyahishuwe no mu cyorezo cya gatandatu ashimangira ko ari ngombwa gusobanukirwa abo bubasha butatu buyobora isi kujya kuri Harumagedoni abo ari bo. Gushyira nabi mu bikorwa kwa Smith ibyerekeye umwami wo mu majyaruguru bitanga gihamya y’ubushobozi buke bwo gushyira mu buryo bukwiriye ibigereranyo n’ibisohozwa byabyo.

Smith could not, or would not, apply the principle so strongly set forth in the writings of Paul that the literal before the time-period of the cross represented the spiritual after the time-period of the cross. When this principle is carefully and correctly followed it is easily demonstrated that the “king of the north” is one of many symbols that represent the spiritual “king of the north” in the last days. Seventh-day Adventists above any other people should know that one of the primary structures that prophecy is based upon is the controversy between Christ and Satan. Christ is the true King of the north, and Satan has been attempting to manifest himself as the counterfeit king of the north.

Smith pa Katon, wale pa Katon, kusadiki nshila ayo Paulo alombolola bikole mu mikanda yakwe, ukuti icakutuntulu ilyo imyaka ya lupanda taifikile cali cileiminina icakumupashi panyuma ya myaka ya lupanda. Ilyo iyi nshila yakonkapo bwino kandi mu bulungami, cisokoloka fye bwangu ukuti “imfumu ya ku kabanga ka masamba” ni cimo pa fishibilo ifingi ifyaleiminina “imfumu ya ku kabanga ka masamba” ya kumupashi mu nshiku sha kulekelesha. Aba Seventh-day Adventists ukucila abantu bonse bambi bafwile ukwishiba ukuti cimo pa fitumba fyakubalilapo ifyo ubusesemo bwashintilila pali fyona ni nkondo ili pakati ka Kristu na Satana. Kristu e Mfumu ya cine ya ku kabanga ka masamba, kabili Satana aleesha ukwimonesha umwine nga ni mfumu ya ku kabanga ka masamba iya bufi.

A Song and Psalm for the sons of Korah. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness. Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. God is known in her palaces for a refuge. Psalms 48:1–3.

Rwimbo n’Zaburi vy’abahungu ba Kora. Uhoraho arakomeye, kandi akwiriye gushimwa cane mu gisagara c’Imana yacu, ku musozi wera wayo. Umusozi Siyoni ni mwiza ku bw’aho uri, ni wo munezero w’isi yose, ku nkengera z’uburaruko, igisagara c’Umwami mukuru. Imana iramenyekana mu ngoro zaco nk’ubuhungiro. Zaburi 48:1–3.

Satan’s efforts to counterfeit the true King of the north, includes employing the pope of Rome as his earthly representative. Satan is antichrist, and so is the pope of Rome, who is Satan’s proxy in his work of deception.

Saatana ta butu kifueti kubianga Mfumu ya Bukimwelo ya kieleka, zidi na kusadila Papa ya Loma bonso muntu andi wa ku ntoto. Saatana i nsi-ya-Klisto, mpi mutindu mosi papa ya Loma mpe i nsi-ya-Klisto, yandi kele mfumu ya Saatana ya kusala kisalu na yandi ya luvunu.

“To secure worldly gains and honors, the church was led to seek the favor and support of the great men of earth; and having thus rejected Christ, she was induced to yield allegiance to the representative of Satan—the bishop of Rome.” The Great Controversy, 50.

“ለምድራዊ ትርፍና ክብር መጠበቅ፣ ቤተ ክርስቲያን የምድር ታላላቅ ሰዎችን ሞገስና ድጋፍ እንድትፈልግ ተመራች፤ እንዲሁም በዚህ ሁኔታ ክርስቶስን ከተቃወመች በኋላ፣ ለሰይጣን ወኪል—ለሮም ጳጳስ—ታዛዥነት እንድትሰጥ ተገፋፋች።” The Great Controversy, 50.

In the breakup of Alexander the Great’s kingdom, Seleucus Nicator became the first king of the north in the history represented in Daniel chapter eleven. His father, Antiochus, had been an influential leader in Alexander’s kingdom, and his son, Seleucus, was made the satrap of Babylon. A “satrap” is a governor, and when Seleucus had secured three of the four geographical areas that Alexander’s kingdom divided into, he became the king of the north.

알렉산더 대왕의 왕국이 분열될 때, 셀레우코스 니카토르는 다니엘서 11장에 묘사된 역사에서 최초의 북방 왕이 되었다. 그의 아버지 안티오쿠스는 알렉산더의 왕국에서 영향력 있는 지도자였으며, 그의 아들 셀레우코스는 바빌론의 사트라프가 되었다. “사트라프”는 총독을 뜻하며, 셀레우코스가 알렉산더의 왕국이 나뉜 네 개의 지리적 영역 가운데 셋을 확보하였을 때, 그는 북방 왕이 되었다.

Smith’s private interpretation and avoidance of grammatical rules led him to assume the final powers that made up Satan’s confederacy of evil in the last days were represented in prophecy as literal powers, not spiritual powers. Thus, he could not see that Seleucus Nicator as the first king of the north, the governor of Babylon, would of prophetic necessity represent the final spiritual king of the north who was the power that controlled modern spiritual Babylon.

Ifasiri ya faragha ya Smith na kuepuka kwake kanuni za sarufi kulimfanya adhani kwamba mamlaka za mwisho zilizounda shirikisho la uovu la Shetani katika siku za mwisho ziliwakilishwa katika unabii kama mamlaka halisi, si mamlaka za kiroho. Hivyo, hakuweza kuona kwamba Seleucus Nicator, akiwa mfalme wa kwanza wa kaskazini, mtawala wa Babeli, kwa ulazima wa kiunabii angemwakilisha mfalme wa mwisho wa kiroho wa kaskazini, aliyekuwa mamlaka iliyoidhibiti Babeli ya kisasa ya kiroho.

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. Revelation 17:1-6.

Na mosi wa ba-anjelu saba bāli na bivya saba ayisile, ayovile na yami, andambile ati, Iza kuno; nêmi nkakulangisha cilongwe ca mwanakazi wa bulalelale mukando udi pa mâyi manji: uyo mafumu a pa ntanda bálengile nandi bulalelale, ne bikalanga ba pa ntanda bákoleshibwe na vino vya bulalelale bwandi. Awo wangitwala mu Mupashi kuya mu cipâla: ne namwene mwanakazi waikele pa nyama ya cikese, izule ne myanda ya kufingulula, ne mitu saba ne nsengo dikumi. Ne mwanakazi uvwale bivwalo bya purple ne cikese, ne wakoshibwe na golide ne mabwe a mushinga mukatampe ne mapela, ne waikala na kopo ya golide mu cyanza candi, izule ne bya muselu ne manyema a bulalelale bwandi: Ne pa cipholo candi pakafunda izina dyalekedwe, NSHINSHI, BABULONA MUKATAMPE, INA WA BALALALÊLE NE WA BYA MUSELU BYA PA NTANDA. Ne namwene mwanakazi wakolwa ne mashi a bashilo, ne ne mashi a ba-kamonyi ba Yesu: ne pâmene namumwene, nakemena ne kukumya kunene. Kusokolola 17:1-6.

The power that governs Babylon in the last days is the papal church, and she is therefore also the spiritual king of the north.

Nguvu inayolitawala Babeli katika siku za mwisho ni kanisa la kipapa, na kwa hiyo yeye pia ndiye mfalme wa kaskazini wa kiroho.

“The woman (Babylon) of Revelation 17 is described as ‘arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness:…and upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots.’ Says the prophet: ‘I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.’ Babylon is further declared to be ‘that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.’ Revelation 17:4-6, 18. The power that for so many centuries maintained despotic sway over the monarchs of Christendom is Rome. The purple and scarlet color, the gold and precious stones and pearls, vividly picture the magnificence and more than kingly pomp affected by the haughty see of Rome. And no other power could be so truly declared ‘drunken with the blood of the saints’ as that church which has so cruelly persecuted the followers of Christ. Babylon is also charged with the sin of unlawful connection with ‘the kings of the earth.’ It was by departure from the Lord, and alliance with the heathen, that the Jewish church became a harlot; and Rome, corrupting herself in like manner by seeking the support of worldly powers, receives a like condemnation.” The Great Controversy, 382.

Uka aingbu (Babylon) wa Ufunuo 17 alondolok mo “afwalikile rangi ya zambarau na nyekundu, naye amepambwa kwa dhahabu na mawe ya thamani na lulu, akiwa na kikombe cha dhahabu mkononi mwake kilichojaa machukizo na uchafu: … na juu ya kipaji cha uso wake liliandikwa jina, Siri, Babeli Mkuu, mama wa makahaba.” Mprophet achi nga: “Nikamwona yule mwanamke amelewa kwa damu ya watakatifu, na kwa damu ya mashahidi wa Yesu.” Tena Babylon alondolokwa kyo “mji ule mkuu, utawalawo juu ya wafalme wa dunia.” Ufunuo 17:4-6, 18. Uwezo ule ambao kwa karne nyingi uliendeleza utawala wa kidikteta juu ya wafalme wa Jumuiya ya Wakristo ni Roma. Rangi ya zambarau na nyekundu, dhahabu na mawe ya thamani na lulu, yaonyesha waziwazi fahari na majivuno yaliyo zaidi ya kifalme yaliyojivika kiti cha enzi chenye kiburi cha Roma. Nayo hapana nguvu nyingine yoyote ambayo yaweza kusemwa kwa kweli kuwa “imelewa kwa damu ya watakatifu” kama kanisa lile ambalo kwa ukatili mwingi liliwatesa wafuasi wa Kristo. Tena Babylon yashitakiwa kwa dhambi ya ushirika haramu na “wafalme wa dunia.” Ilikuwa kwa kumwacha Bwana, na kwa kufanya agano na watu wa mataifa, ndipo kanisa la Kiyahudi likawa kahaba; na Roma, akijiharibu kwa namna iyo hiyo kwa kutafuta msaada wa mamlaka za kidunia, hupokea hukumu iyo hiyo.” Pambano Kuu, 382.

The governor is the king, and according to Isaiah, a king is a kingdom and is also the capital city of a kingdom.

Umutware ni we mwami, kandi nk’uko bivugwa na Yesaya, umwami ni ubwami, kandi nanone ni umurwa mukuru w’ubwo bwami.

For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people. And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established. Isaiah 7:8, 9.

لەبەر ئەوەی سەری سووریا دیمەشقە، و سەری دیمەشق ڕەزینە؛ و لە ماوەی حەفتا و پێنج ساڵدا ئەفرایم دەشکێت تا وەک گەلێک نەبێت. و سەری ئەفرایم سامیرەیە، و سەری سامیرە کوڕی ڕەمالیا یە. ئەگەر باوەڕ نەکەن، بەڕاستی جێگیر نابن. ئیشایا ٧:٨، ٩

According to the witness of Isaiah, a student of prophecy who awakens in July of 2023 to a prophetic testing process must recognize the prophetic symbolism of the “head” if he wishes to be established. If he doesn’t recognize and apply the symbolism of a “head” when called for, then he is not established. Those who disbelieve are not established, and therefore Isaiah is identifying two classes of worshippers in the last days who either are established or are not established. They are the same two classes who either have the “oil,” or they don’t have the “oil.”

Isaiah getuige ndishe, uprofethi wokufunda ovuka ngoJulayi ka-2023 angene enqubweni yokuvivinywa ngokwesiprofetho kufanele aqaphele uphawu lwesiprofetho “lwekhanda” uma efisa ukumiswa aqine. Uma engaluqapheli futhi engalusebenzisi uphawu “lwekhanda” lapho ludingeka khona, khona-ke akamisiwe aqine. Labo abangakholwayo abamiswanga baqine, ngakho-ke u-Isaya uveza izigaba ezimbili zabakhulekeli ezinsukwini zokugcina, okungaba ukuthi zimisiwe ziqine noma azimisiwe ziqine. Yizo kanye lezo zigaba ezimbili eziba “namafutha,” noma ezingabi “namafutha.”

One class that is established and has oil, receives the message of the Midnight Cry that began to be opened up in July of 2023, or they receive the strong delusion of 2 Thessalonians. Their test is the formation of the image of the beast, and the way in which the beast is formed, whether the papal beast of the Dark Ages, or its image that is formed by the United States, or the threefold union that leads the world to Armageddon. This includes the necessity of recognizing that the “head,” the “king” the ruler of the other two powers that make up the threefold union, is the papal power.

Ekipe kimwe cyashinzwe kandi gifite amavuta, cyakira ubutumwa bw’Induru yo mu Gicuku bwatangiye gusobanurwa muri Nyakanga 2023, cyangwa se bakakira ubuyobe bukomeye bwo muri 2 Abatesalonike.

The “head,” the capital city of Judah was Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose to place His name.

“Baş,” Yehuda’nın paytexti Yeruşalim bû, ew bajarê ku Xudan hilbijart ku navê xwe lê bi cih bike.

And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord did choose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother’s name was Naamah an Ammonitess. 1 Kings 14:21.

Kurdish passage unavailable

This passage is not yet available in Kurdish.

In the great controversy between Christ and Satan, Christ’s capital city, where He places His name, is Jerusalem, and Satan’s counterfeit was the literal city of Babylon that represents spiritual Babylon that great city in the last days. Satan places his name upon the head as a counterfeit of God’s city and capitol. The king that resides there is the mother of harlots who commits fornication with the kings of the earth. The mother of harlots is the papal power, and her daughters are the fallen Protestant churches, of which the premier fallen apostate church is the apostate Protestants of the United States.

Kristo na Satani hagati y’indyane ikomeye, umurwa mukuru wa Kristo, aho ashyira izina rye, ni Yerusalemu; kandi ikinyoma cyiganano cya Satani cyari umujyi nyakuri wa Babuloni, ushushanya Babuloni yo mu buryo bw’umwuka, uwo murwa ukomeye wo mu minsi y’imperuka. Satani ashyira izina rye ku gahanga nk’igiganano cy’umujyi n’umurwa mukuru by’Imana. Umwami utuyemo ni nyina w’indaya, usambana n’abami bo mu isi. Uwo nyina w’indaya ni ubutware bwa papa, kandi abakobwa be ni amatorero y’Abaporotesitanti yaguye, muri yo iry’imbere mu matorero yaguye kandi yateshutse rikaba ari Abaporotesitanti bateshutse bo muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika.

Those apostate Protestants represent the Protestant horn of the earth beast, and they are connected with their mother since their rejection of the prophetic message that was unsealed in 1798. Their counterpart, the Republican horn, is connected with the kings of the earth through their relationship with the United Nations, the ten kings of Revelation seventeen. The threefold union which leads the world to Armageddon is represented by its head, where its name is placed, and spiritual modern Rome is spiritual modern Babylon. Its “head” is the papal power.

Baaprotestanti abo bahakanyi bagereranya ihembe ry’Abaprotestanti ry’inyamaswa y’isi, kandi bahujwe na nyina wabo kubera kwanga ubutumwa bw’ubuhanuzi bwafunguwe mu mwaka wa 1798. Icyo bahwanye na cyo, ari cyo ihembe ry’Abaripubulikani, gihujwe n’abami b’isi binyuze mu isano bafitanye n’Umuryango w’Abibumbye, ari bo bami icumi bo mu Ibyahishuwe igice cya cumi na karindwi. Ubumwe bw’ibice bitatu buyobora isi kuri Harimagedoni bugaragazwa n’umutwe wabwo, aho izina ryabwo rishyirwa, kandi Roma ya none yo mu buryo bw’umwuka ni Babuloni ya none yo mu buryo bw’umwuka. “Umutwe” wabwo ni ubutware bwa papa.

The first represents the last and whether you apply Daniel chapter two as did the Millerites, as representing four kingdoms, or as has been opened up in the last days as representing eight kingdoms, the first kingdom was literal Babylon. The Millerites would inform you the last was literal Rome. Babylon and Rome are interchangeable symbols, for they are the first and the last of a prophetic line.

Ekya mbere gihagarariye ekya nyuma, kandi niba ushyira mu bikorwa Daniyeli igice cya kabiri nk’uko Abamileriti babigenje, bakibona ko gihagarariye ubwami bune, cyangwa nk’uko byahishuwe mu minsi ya nyuma ko gihagarariye ubwami umunani, ubwami bwa mbere bwari Babuloni nyakuri. Abamileriti bakakumenyesha ko ubwami bwa nyuma bwari Roma nyakuri. Babuloni na Roma ni ibimenyetso bisimburana, kuko ari byo bya mbere n’ibya nyuma by’umurongo w’ubuhanuzi.

In the last days the first kingdom of literal Babylon represents the eighth and last kingdom which is spiritual modern Babylon, and is also spiritual modern Rome. Upon the two witnesses represented in Daniel chapter two Babylon and Rome are interchangeable symbols.

Mu masiku gaumaliro, ufumu wakwamba wa Babuloni wa kweniso ukuimira ufumu wachisanu na chitatu ndiposo waumaliro, uwo ni Babuloni wa mazuŵa ghano wa uzimu, ndipo ndiposo ni Roma wa mazuŵa ghano wa uzimu. Pa ukaboni wa ŵakaboni ŵaŵiri awo ŵakuimiririka mu Danieli chipatulo 2, Babuloni na Roma ni vimanyikwiro vyakusinthanasinthika.

When the papal whore is portrayed with a name on her forehead that identifies “Mystery Babylon,” it is also identifying “mystery Rome.” A prophetic “mystery” represents a truth that is so profound that it is impossible to understand the depth of the truth represented therein, especially without the influence of the Holy Spirit. But a biblical “mystery” also demands that what is revealed in connection with the mystery is a required understanding for those who seek to pass the test. This is why two witnesses in Revelation emphasize the need to understand modern Rome.

Mwanamuke mzinzi wa kipapa anapoonyeshwa akiwa na jina juu ya kipaji cha uso wake linalotambulisha “Babeli ya Siri,” hapo pia hutambulishwa “Rumi ya siri.” “Siri” ya kinabii huwakilisha ukweli ulio wa kina sana kiasi kwamba haiwezekani kufahamu undani wa ukweli unaowakilishwa humo, hasa pasipo uvuvio wa Roho Mtakatifu. Lakini “siri” ya kibiblia pia hutaka kwamba yale yanayofunuliwa kuhusiana na siri hiyo yawe uelewa wa lazima kwa wale wanaotafuta kuupita mtihani. Hii ndiyo sababu mashahidi wawili katika Ufunuo wanakazia hitaji la kuielewa Rumi ya kisasa.

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.

Li vir e hikmetê ye. Bila yê ku têgihiştin heye jimara heywanê hesab bike; çimkî ew jimara mirovekî ye; û jimara wî şeşsed û şêst û şeş e. Eyandina Yûhennayê 13:18.

“Wisdom” understands the number of the beast, which is the number of a man whose number is six, six, six. The “man of sin” is the head of the beast. Wisdom is an attribute of the wise virgins in the last days, and it is also a symbol of those who understand the increase of knowledge in the last days. Those who do not understand are foolish virgins and are the wicked. The “wisdom” they do not understand must of prophetic necessity be in the context of the final prophetic test, for this is when the wise and foolish virgins exist. They must understand “six, six, six.” The mind that has wisdom is also located by John in the last days in Revelation chapter seventeen.

“Lubbuu” lakkoofsa bineensichaa hubata; innis lakkoofsa nama tokkoo ti, lakkoofsi isaas jaha, jaha, jaha dha. “Namichi cubbuu” mataa bineensichaa dha. Lubbuun amala durboota ogeeyyii bara mootummaa dhumaatti jiranii ti; akkasumas warra bara mootummaa dhumaatti daballii beekumsaa hubatan agarsiisuudhaaf mallattoo dha. Warri hin hubanne durboota gowwootaa dha; isaanis hamoota dha. “Lubbuun” isaan hin hubanne kun dirqama raajii irraa ka’uun keessatti qormaata raajii isa dhumaa keessatti ta’uu qaba; yeroo kanatti durbootni ogeeyyii fi gowwoonni ni jiraatu. Isaan “jaha, jaha, jaha” hubachuu qabu. Sammuun lubbuu qabu Yohaannis immoo Mul’ata boqonnaa kudha torbaffaa keessatti bara mootummaa dhumaatti ni argamsiisa.

And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 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. Revelation 17:9–11.

Û li vir hişê ye ku xwedî şehmetî ye. Ew heft ser, heft çiyan in, li ser wan jin rûniştiye. Û heft padîşah hene: pênc ketine, yek heye, û yê din hîn nehatiye; û gava ew were, pêdivî ye ku demek kurt bimîne. Û canawerê ku hebû, û niha tune ye, ew bi xwe ya heştan e, û ji wan heftan e, û diçe nav windabûnê. Vahî 17:9–11.

The “mind” that has the wisdom to understand the number “six, six, six,” is a wise virgin who has obtained the “mind of Christ.”

“ئەقڵ”ێک کە داناییی هەیە بۆ تێگەیشتن لە ژمارەی “شەش، شەش، شەش”، پاکیزەکچێکی دانایە کە “مێشکی مەسیح”ی بەدەست هێناوە.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:16.

Çimki Rabbin fikrini kim bilmiştir ki, ona talim versin? Lâkin bizde Mesih’in fikri vardır. 1 Korintliler 2:16.

The class of wise virgins have the mind of Christ, and the foolish wicked virgins have the mind of Christ’s adversary.

Ekibinja ky’abawala abagezi kirina ebirowoozo bya Kristo, era abawala abasirusiru ababi balina ebirowoozo by’omulabe wa Kristo.

“The time has come for the true light to shine amid moral darkness. The third angel’s message has been sent forth to the world, warning men against receiving the mark of the beast or of his image in their foreheads or in their hands. To receive this mark means to come to the same decision as the beast has done, and to advocate the same ideas, in direct opposition to the word of God.” Review and Herald, July 13, 1897.

“ई समय आ गेल अछि जे सच्चा जोति नैतिक अन्हारक बीच चमकै। तेसर दूतक सनेस संसारमे पठाओल गेल अछि, जे मनुखसभकेँ चेतावनी दैत अछि जे ओ सभ अपन कपार पर वा अपन हाथमे पशु अथवा ओकर प्रतिमाक छाप ग्रहण नहि करथि। ई छाप ग्रहण करबाक अर्थ अछि ओहि निर्णय पर पहुँचना जकरा पशु लेने अछि, आ ओही विचारसभक समर्थन करनाइ, जे परमेश्वरक वचनक प्रत्यक्ष विरोधमे अछि।” Review and Herald, July 13, 1897.

The formation of the image of the beast is the final test for the virgins of the parable, and the wise have the mind of Christ, for they have come to the same decision as Christ, for they have submitted their wills unto the Holy Spirit’s direction. The formation of the image of Christ in the wise virgins contrasts with the formation of the image of the beast in the foolish virgins. The foolish virgins come to the same decision as the beast, for they became confused upon the test question concerning the correct identification of the antichrist, who is the counterfeit king of the north and the head of modern Rome.

Sanoamu wa sanamu ya mnyama ndio jaribu la mwisho kwa wanawali wa mfano, na wenye hekima wana nia ya Kristo, kwa maana wamefikia uamuzi uleule na Kristo, kwa kuwa wameyatia mapenzi yao chini ya uongozi wa Roho Mtakatifu. Kusitawishwa kwa sura ya Kristo ndani ya wanawali wenye hekima kunalingana kwa kinyume na kusitawishwa kwa sura ya mnyama ndani ya wanawali wapumbavu. Wanawali wapumbavu hufikia uamuzi uleule na mnyama, kwa maana walichanganyikiwa juu ya swali la jaribu kuhusu utambulisho sahihi wa mpinga-Kristo, ambaye ndiye mfalme wa kaskazini wa bandia na kichwa cha Rumi ya kisasa.

“Those who become confused in their understanding of the word, who fail to see the meaning of antichrist, will surely place themselves on the side of antichrist.” Kress Collection, 105.

“Bene abaleka mu kumvwisisa kwabo okw’Ekigambo, era ne bataalaba makulu ga antichrist, awatali kubuusabuusa balyeteeka ku ludda lwa antichrist.” Kress Collection, 105.

The foolish virgins in the testing time that is represented as the formation of the image of the beast become confused in their understanding of the Word. Their confusion is premised upon misunderstanding God’s prophetic Word, and failing to see the correct meaning of Modern Rome, they receive strong delusion, come to the same decision as the beast, and advocate the same papal ideas in direct opposition to the Word of God, and place themselves on the side of antichrist.

Abakazikira ab’obusirusiru mu biro eby’okukemebwa ebikiikirirwa ng’okukolebwa kw’ekifaananyi ky’ensolo basobabulwa mu kutegeera kwabwe okw’Ekigambo. Okusobabulwa kwabwe kwesigamye ku butategeera bulungi Kigambo kya Katonda eky’obunnabbi; era bwe batalaba makulu matuufu ga Rooma ey’Omulembe Guno, baweebwa okulimbibwa okw’amaanyi, batuuka ku kusalawo kwe kumu n’ensolo, era bawagira ebirowoozo bye bimu eby’obwapapa mu kuwakanya obutereevu Ekigambo kya Katonda, ne beeteeka ku ludda lwa antikristaayo.
