The prophetic framework applied by William Miller was the structure of the two desolating powers of pagan Rome followed by papal Rome. The prophetic framework applied by Future for America is the structure of the three desolating powers of pagan Rome followed by papal Rome and then apostate Protestantism. The three manifestations of Rome are those three desolating powers of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet. That framework was recognized in a large part by the resistance brought against the light of the last six verses of Daniel chapter eleven, that was unsealed at the time of the end in 1989.
Enteekateeka ey’obunnabbi William Miller gye yakozesa yali enkola ey’obuyinza bubiri obuzikiriza: Roma ey’obupagani egobererwa Roma ey’obupapa. Enteekateeka ey’obunnabbi Future for America gye bakozesa ye nkola ey’obuyinza obuzikiriza busatu: Roma ey’obupagani, egobererwa Roma ey’obupapa, n’oluvannyuma ObuProtesitanti obwajeemera. Okweyoleka okusatu kwa Roma kwe kwo obuyinza obuzikiriza busatu obw’omusota, ensolo n’omunabbi w’obulimba. Enteekateeka eyo yategeerekeka nnyo olw’okuwakanya okwakolebwa ku kitangaala eky’ennyiriri mukaaga ez’enkomerero ez’Essuula 11 eya Danyeri, ezaggulwawo ku kiseera ky’enkomerero mu 1989.
The first two manifestations of Rome identify the prophetic makeup of modern Rome, the third and last manifestation of Rome. Modern Rome identifies the structure of the final threefold persecuting power of the last days. Closely related, but distinctly different is the three manifestations of Babylon. The first was Nimrod’s Babel. The second was Nebuchadnezzar and Belshazzar’s Babylon. Together those two prophetic witnesses identify the prophetic characteristics of modern Babylon. Though at one level modern Rome and modern Babylon are the same entity, the three manifestations of Babylon are identifying the final fall of Babylon, and the arrogance of the man of sin.
Emirundi ebiri egyasooka Loma gye yalabikira giraga engeri ey’obunnabbi eya Loma ey’omu biro bino; Loma ey’omu biro bino kye kulabikibwa kwayo okw’okusatu era okw’enkomerero. Loma ey’omu biro bino eraga entereeza y’obuyinza obw’okuyigganya obusatu obw’enkomerero mu nnaku ez’oluvannyuma. Byegattagana ennyo, naye nga byawukana bulungi, ge mirundi esatu Babulooni gye yalabikira. Esooka yali Babele ya Nimuloodi. Eyakubiri yali Babulooni ya Nebukadduneeza ne Belusaza. Wamu, abajulizi b’obunnabbi abo ababiri balambulula ebiranga eby’obunnabbi bya Babulooni ey’omu biro bino. Newaakubadde nga ku mulingo ogumu Loma ey’omu biro bino ne Babulooni ey’omu biro bino by’ekimu, emirundi esatu Babulooni gye yalabikira giraga okugwa kwa Babulooni okw’enkomerero, n’amalala g’omuntu ow’obujeemu.
The fall of Babylon is a large and specific subject in Bible prophecy, as is the arrogance of the pope of Rome. In Revelation chapter seventeen, one of the angels who pours out the seven last plagues comes to specifically identify the judgment of Babylon, which is another expression of her fall.
Ensonga y’okugwa kwa Babulooni nnene era erambikiddwa obulungi mu bunnabbi bwa Baibuli, nga bwe kiri n’amalala g’a Papa wa Ruumi. Mu Kitabo ky’Okubikkulirwa, essuula ey’ekkumi n’omusanvu, malaika omu ku bamalayika abafuka ebiboonoobono eby’enkomerero omusanvu ajja alage bulambulukufu okusalirwa omusango kwa Babulooni, ekyo nga kiraga mu ngeri endala okugwa kwe.
And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show 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. Revelation 17:1–3.
Awo n’ajja omu ku bamalayika musanvu abaali balina ebibya musanvu, n’ayogera nange ng’agamba nti, Jjangu wano; ndikulaga omusango gw’omukazi omwenzi omukulu atuula ku mazzi amangi; gwe bakabaka b’ensi baakozze naye obwenzi, era abatuuze b’ensi baatamiizibwa n’omwenge gw’obwenzi bwe. Awo n’antwala mu Mwoyo mu ddungu; ne ndaba omukazi ng’atudde ku nsolo ey’omumyufu, ejjudde amannya ag’okutukana, erina emitwe musanvu n’empondo kkumi. Okubikkulirwa 17:1-3.
The work of the angel is to show John the judgment of the woman who has “MYSTERY BABYLON” written upon her forehead.
Omulimu gw’omulayika kwe kulaga Yokaana omusango gw’omukazi alina "MYSTERY BABYLON" ebiwandiikiddwa ku kyenyi kye.
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 17:4–6.
Era omukazi yali ayambadde eza pupulo n’eza karakara, nga yeekutteko zzaabu n’amayinja ag’omuwendo n’amapaali, nga mu mukono gwe mulimu ekikopo kya zzaabu ekijjudde eby’omuzizo n’obukyafu bw’obwenzi bwe: Era ku kyenyi kye kyawandiikibwa erinnya nti, EKYAMA, BABIRONI OMUKULU, NYINA W’ABAKAZI AB’EBYOBWENZI N’EBY’OMUZIZO BY’ENSI. Era ne ndaba omukazi ng’atamidde omusaayi gw’abatukuvu, n’omusaayi gw’abajulizi ba Yesu: bwe namm ulaba ne mmwewuunya nnyo. Okubikkulirwa 17:4-6.
The geopolitical apparatus which the papacy employs in the last days to persecute those she deems are heretics is represented by “a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.” The fact that she is riding upon the beast shows that she is in control of the beast, as is a rider upon a horse.
Enteekateeka ey’eby’obufuzi n’eby’amawanga obwakapapa bwe bukozesa mu nnaku ez’enkomerero okubonyaabonya abo b’agamba nti b’abajeemu mu by’eddiini eyolekebwa ng’“ensolo ey’omulondo, ejjudde amannya ag’okuliga, erina emitwe musanvu n’ennyanga kkumi.” Okuba nti atudde ku nsolo kulaga nti afuga ensolo eyo, ng’omuvuzi w’embalaasi bw’afuga embalaasi.
And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Revelation 17:8.
Era omukazi gwe walabye ye kibuga ekyo ekinene, ekifuga ku bakabaka b’ensi. Okubikkulirwa 17:8.
The “scarlet colored beast with seven heads and ten horns” is modern Rome, and represents the geopolitical structure the woman employs as she persecutes God’s faithful in the last days. The woman is modern Babylon, the great city that commits fornication and rules over the kings of the earth. The first two manifestations of Babylon represented by Babel in Genesis chapter eleven, and Babylon in Daniel chapters four and five, describe the arrogance and the fall of modern Babylon in the last days. The woman who is judged in Revelation chapter seventeen, is modern Babylon, and the beast she reigns over is modern Rome. She has committed fornication with the kings, and together they are one flesh.
“Ekisolo eky’okumyufu ennyo ekirina emitwe musanvu n’amayembe kkumi” kye Loma ey’omu kiseera kino, era kiyimirira ensengeka y’ebyobufuzi eby’ensi omukyala gy’akozesa ng’ayigganya abeesigwa ba Katonda mu nnaku ez’enkomerero. Omukyala ye Babulooni wa leero, ekibuga ekinene ekikolera obwenzi era ekafugira bakabaka b’ensi yonna. Eby’okulabikira ebyasooka ebibiri bya Babulooni ebirabibwa mu Babel mu Olubereberye essuula ey’ekkumi n’emu, ne Babulooni mu Danyeri essuula ennya n’ettano, bitegeeza amalala n’okugwa kwa Babulooni wa leero mu nnaku ez’enkomerero. Omukyala asalibwa omusango mu Okubikkulirwa essuula ey’ekkumi n’omusanvu, ye Babulooni wa leero, era ekisolo kye afuga ye Loma ey’omu kiseera kino. Akoze obwenzi ne bakabaka, era wamu bafuuse omubiri gumu.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Genesis 2:24.
Kyava omusajja aleka kitaawe ne nnyina, anywegereranga mukazi we; nabo babe omubiri gumu. Olubereberye 2:24.
Though they are one, certain prophetic elements of modern Rome and modern Babylon are isolated in God’s Word. The story of modern Babylon, as established by the two witnesses of Babel and Babylon is about her arrogance, and her final fall. In the last six verses of Daniel eleven, the king of the north is used to represent the papacy. The pope of Rome is Satan’s earthly representative.
Newankubadde bimu, ebitundu ebimu eby’obunnabbi ebyerekeranye ne Roma ya leero n’e Babulooni ya leero biyawuliddwa mu Kigambo kya Katonda. Ekyafaayo kya Babulooni ya leero, nga bwe kikakasibwa abajulirwa babiri: Babeli ne Babulooni, kyogerako ku malala gaayo n’okugwa kwayo okwasembayo. Mu nnyiriri mukaaga ezisembayo ez’omu Danyeri essuula 11, kabaka w’e Bukiikakkono akozeebwa okuyimiririra obupapa. Papa wa Roma ye omuyimirira wa Setaani wano ku nsi.
“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.
Okukuuma obugagga n’ettendo eby’ensi, ekkanisa yaatwalibwa okunoonya ekisa n’obuwagizi okuva eri abakungu ab’ensi; era, nga bwe yagaanye Kristo mu ngeri eyo, n’esendasendebwa okuwaayo obwesigwa eri akiikirira Setaani—omulabirizi w’e Ruumi.
Satan wished to be God, and his desire was to take God’s political and religious thrones.
Sitaani yayagala okuba Katonda, era kye yayagala kwe kutwala entebe za Katonda ez'obufuzi n'ez'eddiini.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Isaiah 14:12–14.
Ogudde otya okuva mu ggulu, ai Lusifa, mwana w’enkya! Otemeddwa otya wansi ku nsi, ggwe eyakendeeza amaanyi g’amawanga! Kubanga ogambye mu mutima gwo nti, njja kulinnya mu ggulu, njja kugulumiza entebe yange waggulu okusinga emmunyeenye za Katonda: era njja kutuula ku lusozi lw’okusisinkana, ku mabbali g’obukiikakkono: njja kulinnya waggulu okusinga obugulumivu bw’ebbire; njja kufaanana Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo. Isaaya 14:12-14.
Satan desired to exalt his throne (which is a symbol of kingly rule), “above the stars of God.” The stars of God are the angels, and represent the machinery of God’s government. Satan desired to “also” be seated “upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north.” The congregation is the Church, and it is located in Jerusalem, which is in the sides of the north. To be seated upon a throne in “sides of the north,” is to be king of the north. Christ is the true King of the North, who also is King over the government of God. Satan desired to “be like the most High.”
Sitaani yayagala okutumbula entebe ye (akabonero k’obwakabaka), “waggulu ku nnyenye za Katonda.” Ennyenye za Katonda be bamalayika, era zimeerera enteekateeka n’enkola y’obufuzi bwa Katonda. Sitaani yayagala “nate” okutudde “ku lusozi olw’okukuŋŋaanirangamu, ku mabbali g’amambuka.” Ekibiina kye Kanisa, era kiri mu Yerusaalemi, ekiri ku mabbali g’amambuka. Okutuula ku ntebe “ku mabbali g’amambuka,” kye kuba okuba Kabaka w’Amambuka. Kristo ye Kabaka w’Amambuka omutuufu, era ye Kabaka w’obufuzi bwa Katonda. Sitaani yayagala “okufaanana n’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.”
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. Psalm 48:1–3.
Oluyimba ne Zabbuli eri batabani ba Koola. Mukama mukulu nnyo, era asiimibwa nnyo mu kibuga kya Katonda waffe, ku lusozi olw’obutukuvu bwe. Olusozi Sayuuni lulungi mu kifo kyalwo, ssanyu ery’ensi yonna; luli ku mabbali g’obukiikakkono, ekibuga kya Kabaka Omukulu. Katonda amanyiddwa mu nnyumba zaayo ez’obwakabaka ng’ekiddukirwamu. Zabbuli 48:1-3.
The earthly representative of Satan is the bishop of Rome (the pope). In the last six verses of Daniel eleven, the final rise and fall of the pope of Rome is portrayed, and the pope is there represented as the king of the north. He is the head of the Catholic church, and the word “catholic” means universal. In order for Satan to counterfeit Christ’s two thrones (political and religious), Satan created the Catholic church for the purpose of having a worldwide religious system when he begins his personation of Christ in the last days.
Omukiikirizi wa Setaani mu nsi ye Omubishopu wa Loma (Papa). Mu nnyiriri mukaaga ez’enkomerero z’Essuula ey’ekkumi n’emu mu kitabo kya Danyeri, okuyimuka n’okugwa okw’enkomerero kwa Papa wa Loma kulagibwa, era eyo Papa alagibwa ng’Kabaka ow’Obukiikakkono. Ye mutwe gw’Ekkanisa ya Katoorika, era ekigambo “katoorika” kitegeeza “ky’ensi yonna.” Alwo Setaani, okusobola okukoppa mu bulimba entebe ebbiri za Kristo (ey’ebyobufuzi n’ey’eddiini), yatonda Ekkanisa ya Katoorika nga kigendererwa okubeera n’enkola y’eddiini ey’ensi yonna bwe y’anaatandika okwefuula Kristo mu nnaku ez’enkomerero.
“This compromise between paganism and Christianity resulted in the development of ‘the man of sin’ foretold in prophecy as opposing and exalting himself above God. That gigantic system of false religion is a masterpiece of Satan’s power—a monument of his efforts to seat himself upon the throne to rule the earth according to his will.” The Great Controversy, 50.
Okutabaganyizibwa kw’obupagani n’ObuKristo kwavaamu okukulaakulana kwa ‘musajja w’ekibi’ eyayogerwako mu bunnabbi, ng’awakanira Katonda era yeeyimusa okusinga Katonda. Eyo nteekateeka ennene ennyo ey’eddiini ey’obulimba ye mulimu omukulu ddala ogw’amaanyi ga Setaani - ekijjukizo eky’okugezaako kwe okwetuuza ku nnamulondo okufuga ensi nga bwe y’ayagala. The Great Controversy, 50.
Satan constructed a worldwide religious system and also a worldwide political structure, for the purpose of counterfeiting the two thrones of authority that the true King of the North is seated upon. The ten kings of Revelation seventeen, with whom the whore commits fornication and rules over in the last days, represents the beast with seven heads and ten horns, that is reigned over by the woman who has BABYLON written on her forehead. In chapter seventeen the ten kings “hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.” Thus, her judgment is portrayed. The three manifestations of Babylon are identifying the final fall of Babylon. The three manifestations of Rome are identifying the political structure she reigns over.
Sitaani yateekawo entegeka y’eddiini ey’ensi yonna era nate yateekawo entegeka ey’obufuzi ey’ensi yonna, nga kigendererwa ky’okukoppa entebe bbiri ez’obuyinza mwe Kabaka omutuufu ow’Obukiikakkono atudde. Abakabaka ekkumi ab’Okubikkulirwa ekitundu eky’ekkumi n’omusanvu, be omukyala omwenzi alina nabo obwenzi era b’afugira mu nnaku ez’enkomerero, bakiikirira ekisolo ekirina emitwe musanvu n’ensojo kkumi, ekifugibwa omukazi alina BABILONI yawandiikiddwa ku kyenyi kye. Mu kitundu eky’ekkumi n’omusanvu abakabaka ekkumi "baakyayira omukyala omwenzi, ne bamufuula matongo n’abwereere, era balirya omubiri gwe, ne bamwokya n’omuliro." Bw’atyo omusango gwe gulagiddwa. Engeeri ssatu ze Babiloni yeeragaamu ziraga okugwa kwa Babiloni okwasembayo. Engeeri ssatu ze Loma yeeragaamu ziraga entegeka ey’obufuzi gy’efuga.
The three angels’ messages of Revelation chapter fourteen address the final fall of modern Babylon, as does Daniel chapter eleven, verses forty-four and forty-five. Her final fall is referenced in chapter seventeen of Revelation, but it is even more specifically detailed in chapter eighteen. Daniel eleven’s portrayal of modern Babylon’s final fall, accompanied with the illustration of chapter fourteen’s three angels, and chapters seventeen and eighteen’s description of the final fall, are to be brought together, line upon line. In Daniel eleven, modern Babylon’s final fall is identified as occurring with her receiving no help.
Obubaka bw’abamalayika abasatu obuli mu Okubikkulirwa essuula 14 byogera ku kugwa okusembayo kwa Babulooni ya leero, era ne Danyeri essuula 11, ennyiriri 44 ne 45, byogera ku nsonga eyo. Okugwa kwayo okusembayo kujjulwako mu Okubikkulirwa essuula 17, naye kunyonyolwa mu bulambulukufu obusinga kuli mu essuula 18. Okulaga kwa Danyeri essuula 11 okw’okugwa okusembayo kwa Babulooni ya leero, nga kweyongerako n’okulabirako kw’abamalayika abasatu ab’omu essuula 14, era n’okunyonyola okw’ensuula 17 n’18 ku kugwa okusembayo, byonna bireetebwe wamu, olunyiriri ku lunyiriri. Mu Danyeri essuula 11, okugwa okusembayo kwa Babulooni ya leero kumanyibwa nti kutuukirira nga tafuna buyambi bwonna.
And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him. Daniel 11:45.
Era alisimba weema z’amayumba ge wakati w’amayanja ne ku lusozi olutukuvu olw’ekitiibwa; naye alituuka ku nkomerero ye, so tewaliba n’amuyamba. Danyeri 11:45.
In the next verse Michael stands up and human probation closes. The verse begins by stating, “And at that time.” When modern Babylon falls, human probation closes, and she dies alone. The third angel identifies the close of probation because it identifies that the world has been divided into two classes of people, those who have the mark of the beast and those who have the seal of God. At that time, God’s wrath is poured out upon modern Babylon, and those who have accepted the mark of her authority.
Mu olunyiriri oluddako Mikaeri ayimirira, era ekiseera ky’ekisa ky’abantu kiggwawo. Olunyiriri lutandika nga lugamba nti, "Era mu biro ebyo." Babulooni ya mulembe guno bw’egwa, ekiseera ky’ekisa ky’abantu kiggwawo, era n’afa yekka. Malayika ow’okusatu alaga okuggwaawo kw’ekiseera ky’ekisa kubanga alaga nti ensi egabiddwa mu bika bibiri by’abantu: abo abalina akabonero k’ensolo n’abo abalina akabonero ka Katonda. Mu biro ebyo, obusungu bwa Katonda bumansibwa ku Babulooni ya mulembe guno, ne ku abo abakkirizza akabonero ak’obuyinza bwayo.
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. Revelation 14:9–12.
Era malayika ow’okusatu n’abagoberera, ng’ayogera n’eddoboozi eddene nti, Omuntu yenna bw’asinza ensolo n’ekifaananyi ky’ensolo, era n’akkiriza akabonero k’ensolo ku kyenyi kye oba ku mukono gwe, oyo alinywa omwenge ogw’obusungu bwa Katonda, ogwafukiddwa nga tegutabuliddwa mu kikopo ky’obusungu bwe; era anaatulugunyizibwa n’omuliro ne sulufa mu maaso g’abamalayika abatukuvu, ne mu maaso g’Omwana gw’Endiga: N’omukka gw’okutulugunyizibwa kwabwe gulinnya waggulu emirembe n’emirembe: era tebalina kuwummula emisana newadde ekiro, abo abasinza ensolo n’ekifaananyi ky’ensolo, era buli muntu yenna akkiriza akabonero k’erinnya ly’ensolo. Wano we wali obugumiikiriza bw’abatukuvu: wano we bali abakwata amateeka ga Katonda, era n’okukkiriza kwa Yesu. Okubikkulirwa 14:9-12.
In Revelation chapter eighteen, the judgment of the great whore is represented as a progressive judgment that begins at the soon-coming Sunday law, when the second voice calls God’s other flock out of Babylon. By verse twenty-one, the close of probation is marked, thus identifying a period from the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States until Michael stands up is a period of time that modern Babylon’s judgment is brought about, during a time of great persecution.
Mu Okubikkulirwa omutwe ogw’ekkumi n’omunaana, okusala omusango ku mukazi omwenzi omukulu kulagiddwa ng’okusalibwa omusango okweyongera mu maaso okutandika ku tteeka lya Ssande eririjjira mu bbanga ttono, lwe ddoboozi ery’okubiri liyita ekisibo ekirala kya Katonda okuva mu Babulooni. Ku olunnyiriri ogw’amakumi abiri mu gumu, okuggalwawo kw’akaseera k’okusaasirwa kulagiddwa; bwe kityo, kiraga ekiseera okuva ku tteeka lya Ssande eririjjira mu bbanga ttono mu Amerika okutuusa Mikaeri lw’ayimirira, ng’omu kiseera ekyo mwe kuleetebwa okusala omusango ku Babulooni wa leero, mu kiseera ky’okuyigganyizibwa okunene.
And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee; And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth. Revelation 18:21–24.
Era malayika ow’amaanyi n’ayimusa ejjinja ng’ery’ekiseeyezo erinnene, n’akisuuza mu nnyanja, ng’agamba nti, Bwe kityo, n’obukambwe, ekibuga ekyo ekinene Babulooni kijja kusuulibwa wansi, era tekiriddamu kusangibwa nate ddala. Era eddoboozi ly’abavugi b’ennanga, n’abayimbi, n’abafuuyi b’emirere, n’abafuuyi b’amakondeere, teriddamu kuwulirwa mu ggwe nate ddala; era omukugu, mu bukugu bwonna bw’aba nabwo, tajja kusangibwamu nate mu ggwe; era eddoboozi ly’ejjinja ly’ekiseeyezo teriddamu kuwulirwa mu ggwe; Era ekitangaala ky’ettabaaza tekiriddamu kukwaka mu ggwe; era eddoboozi ly’omuko n’ery’omugole teriddamu kuwulirwa mu ggwe: kubanga abasuubuzi bo be baali abantu abakulu ab’ensi; kubanga olw’obulogo bwo amawanga gonna gaalimbibwa. Era mu yo ne basangamu omusaayi gw’abannabbi, n’abatukuvu, n’abo bonna abattibwa ku nsi. Okubikkulirwa 18:21-24.
The casting down of the stone, the silencing of the musicians and workers, the extinguishing of the candle, the silencing of the voices of the bride and bridegroom are all expressions taken from the Old Testament that represent the close of probation.
Okusuula ejjinja wansi, okusirisa abayimbi n’abakozi, okuzikiza ettabaaza, n’okusirisa amaloboozi g’omugole n’omuwasa; ebyo byonna bye bigambo ebyaggibwa mu Endagaano Enkadde ebiraga okukoma kw’ekiseera eky’okusaasirwa.
When Daniel chapter eleven, is prophetically laid upon Revelation chapters thirteen and fourteen, and then those two passages are laid upon chapters seventeen and eighteen of Revelation we find three lines of prophecy that, among other truths, represent the final fall of modern Babylon. Each of the three lines represent one of the threefold powers that lead the world to Armageddon. Daniel chapter eleven is identifying the beast (the papacy). Revelation chapters thirteen and fourteen, present the same history, but from the perspective of the false prophet (the United States). Revelation chapters seventeen and eighteen, identify the same prophetic line, but the history there represented is focused upon the dragon (the United Nations).
Bwe Danyeri essuula kkumi n’emu tusimbaganya mu ngeri y’obunnabbi n’Okubikkulirwa essuula kkumi na ssatu n’ekumi na nnya, ate ebyawandiikibwa ebyo byombi bwe tubisimbaganya ku Okubikkulirwa essuula kkumi na musanvu n’ekumi na munaana, tusanga emirongo esatu gy’obunnabbi egiraga, wamu n’amatuufu amalala, okugwa okusembayo kwa Babulooni ya leero. Buli mulongo ku gyo esatu gulaga omu ku buyinza busatu obuleeta ensi ewa Amagedoni. Danyeri essuula kkumi n’emu elambulula ensolo (Obupapa). Okubikkulirwa essuula kkumi na ssatu n’ekumi na nnya biraga ebyafaayo bimu, naye nga okuva ku luuyi lw’omunnabbi ow’obulimba (Amerika). Okubikkulirwa essuula kkumi na musanvu n’ekumi na munaana birambulula omulongo gumu ogw’obunnabbi, naye ebyafaayo ebiweereddwayo eyo bifuuse ku musota omukulu (Amawanga Amagatte).
Each of the three lines begin at the time of the end in 1798. Verse forty of Daniel chapter eleven begins with the words, “And at the time of the end.” The “time of the end” in the beginning of the verse is 1798, and when the verse was fulfilled in 1989, it was also the “time of the end,” for Jesus illustrates the end with the beginning when He wishes to place His signature upon an important fact. Sister White informs us that chapter thirteen of Revelation also begins in 1798.
Buli emu ku nnyiriri essatu zino etandikira ku kiseera eky’enkomerero mu 1798. Olunyiriri amakumi ana mu ssuula kkumi n’emu mu kitabo kya Danyeri lutandika n’ebigambo, “Era mu kiseera eky’enkomerero.” “Ekiseera eky’enkomerero” mu ntandikwa y’olunyiriri luno kitegeeza 1798, era olunyiriri luno bwe lwatuukirira mu 1989, naye ne kiba “ekiseera eky’enkomerero,” kubanga Yesu alaga enkomerero ng’agifananya n’entandikwa bw’aba ayagala okuteekako omukono gwe ku nsonga ey’amaanyi. Mukyala White atutegeeza nti essuula kkumi n’esatu ey’Okubikkulirwa kwa Yokaana nayo etandikira mu 1798.
“And when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution, John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work. This power, the last that is to wage war against the church and the law of God, was symbolized by a beast with lamblike horns.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
Era bwe obwa Paapa bwaggyibwako amaanyi ne busindikirizibwa okukomya okubonyaabonya, Yokaana yalaba amaanyi amapya nga gayimuka okuddamu eddoboozi ly'omusota, era ne gatambuza omulimu ogumu ogw'obukambwe n'oguvumisa Katonda. Amaanyi ago, ag'enkomerero ag'anaatabaala n'ekkanisa n'amateeka ga Katonda, gaalabisibwa mu kifaananyi ky'ensolo erina empondo nga eza mwana w'endiga. Obubonero bw'Emirembe, Novemba 1, 1899.
The line of prophecy that begins in verse forty of Daniel eleven in 1798, continues until human probation closes when Michael stands up. The line of prophecy that begins in 1798, “when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution,” and it ends with God’s wrath being poured upon those who have accepted the “mark” of papal authority. In Revelation chapter seventeen, when the angel comes to John to show him the judgment of the papal whore, John is carried to the very end of the “wilderness,” that represents the history of the year 538 unto 1798. Spiritually placed in 1798, John records the judgment of modern Babylon, that begins with the second voice of Revelation eighteen, which announces that the papacy has filled the cup of her probationary time, and her judgment then continues until probation closes as the millstone is cast into the sea.
Olunyiriri lw’obunnabbi olutandikira mu Danyeri 11:40 mu 1798, lweyongera mu maaso okutuusa ekiseera ky’okugezesebwa kw’abantu lwe kiggalibwa, Mikaeri bw’ayimirira. Olunyiriri lw’obunnabbi olutandikira mu 1798, “nga Obwapaapa bwayibwiddwamu amaanyi era ne busindikirizibwa okuyimiriza okutulugunya,” era luggwako nga obusungu bwa Katonda bufukibwa ku abo abakkiridde “akabonero” k’obuyinza bw’Obwapaapa. Mu Okubikkulirwa essuula 17, bwe malayika yajja eri Yokaana okumulaga okusala omusango kw’omukyala omwenzi ow’Obwapaapa, Yokaana n’atwalibwa mu nkomerero ddala y’“eddungu,” eriyimirira ebyafaayo okuva mu mwaka 538 okutuuka mu 1798. Nga ateekeddwa mu mwoyo mu 1798, Yokaana awandiika okusala omusango kwa Babulooni wa leero, okutandika n’eddoboozi ery’okubiri ery’Okubikkulirwa essuula 18, erirangirira nti Obwapaapa bumaze okujjuza ekikompe eky’ekiseera kyabwo eky’okugezesebwa, era okusala omusango kwo ne kugenda mu maaso okutuusa ekiseera ky’okugezesebwa lwe kiggalibwa, nga ejjinja ly’okusensa lisuuliddwa mu nnyanja.
Line upon line, these three lines identify the final fall of modern Babylon, who has committed fornication with the kings of modern Rome. Daniel eleven is a witness of the papacy, represented as the king of the north. Revelation thirteen and fourteen is a witness of the false prophet, and chapters seventeen and eighteen witness to the role of the dragon (the ten kings). The prophetic framework employed by Future for America is based upon the three powers that lead the world to Armageddon.
Olunnyiriri ku lunnyiriri, ennyiriri ssatu zino ziraga okugwa okw’enkomerero kwa Babulooni eya leero, eyakoze obwenzi n’abami ba Looma eya leero. Danyeri essuula 11 ajjulira obwa Paapa ng’Kabaka w’obukiikakkono. Okubikkulirwa essuula 13 n’e 14 bijjulira ku nnabbi w’obulimba, ate n’ensuula 17 n’e 18 zijjulira ku ndima y’omuyoka (bakabaka kkumi). Enteekateeka ey’obunnabbi ekozesebwa Future for America esinziira ku buyinza busatu obutwala ensi e Alumagedoni.
The two witnesses of Babel and Babylon identify the prophetic characteristics of modern Babylon. Those two witnesses speak of the arrogance of a papal leader, who professes to be Christian and seats himself in the temple of God, and proclaims himself to be God. Those two witnesses also identify his final fall. The pope’s self-exaltation and final fall as represented in the three manifestations of Babylon are what establishes the vision of prophetic history.
Abajulizi babiri aba Babele ne Babulooni balaga ebiranga eby’obunnabbi bya Babulooni ey’omu kiseera kino. Abo bajulizi babiri boogerako ku bwenyumirivu bw’omukulembeze w’Obupapa, yeeyita Mukkiristo era n’atuula mu yeekaalu ya Katonda, n’yeefuula Katonda. Abo bajulizi babiri era balaga n’okugwa kwe okw’enkomerero. Okwekulumbaza kwa Papa n’okugwa kwe okw’enkomerero, nga bwe biragiddwa mu ngeri essatu Babulooni gy’eyoleseemu, bye biteekaawo olubono lw’ebyafaayo eby’obunnabbi.
And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision; but they shall fall. Daniel 11:14.
Era mu biro ebyo bangi bajja kuyimirira okulwanyisa kabaka w’amaserengeta; era n’abanyazi b’abantu bo balyeewaggula okukakasa okwolesebwa; naye baligwa. Danyeri 11:14.
We will continue our consideration of the three manifestations of Babylon in the next article.
Tujja okwongera ku kwekenneenya kwaffe ku ngeri ssatu ez’okweyoleka eza Babulooni mu kiwandiiko ekiddako.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. Revelation 18:4–8.
Era ne mpulira eddoboozi eddala okuva mu ggulu nga ligamba, Muvengamu okuva gy’ali, abantu bange, mulemenga okubeerako omugabo mu bibi bye, era muleme okutuukibwako ebibonerezo bye. Kubanga ebibi bye bituuse mu ggulu, era Katonda ajjukidde obutali butuukirivu bwe. Musasule nga bwe yasasula nammwe, era mumusasule emirundi ebiri okusinziira ku bikolwa bye; mu kikopo kye ky’ajjuza, mukimujjuzeemu emirundi ebiri. Bwe yeegulumiza n’abeera mu by’obweyagalire, bw’atyo mumuwe obulumi n’ennaku mu mlingo gumu; kubanga agamba mu mutima gwe nti, Ntuula nga kabaka omukazi, so si mulamu, era siriraba nnaku. Noolwekyo ebibonerezo bye bijja mu lunaku lumu: okufa, n’okukungubaga, n’enjala; era anayokebwa ddala n’omuliro: kubanga wa maanyi Mukama Katonda amusalira omusango. Okubikkulirwa 18:4-8.
