It has been established upon several witnesses that in history and in prophecy Rome always comes up eighth and is of the seven. The prophetic riddle of this symbol is part of what the Lion of the tribe of Judah unseals just before the close of probation. Christ never changes, and in the First and Great Disappointments of Millerite history, He revealed a truth which explained the mystery of the disappointment.
Voaporofo tamin’ny alalan’ny vavolombelona maromaro fa, ao amin’ny tantara sy ao amin’ny faminaniana, i Roma dia miseho mandrakariva ho fahavalo, sady isan’ny fito. Ny ankamantatra ara-paminaniana ao amin’ity tandindona ity dia ampahany amin’izay vahan’ny Liona avy amin’ny firenen’i Joda tombo-kase, mialoha indrindra ny hifaranan’ny androm-pahasoavana. Tsy miova na oviana na oviana Kristy, ary tao amin’ny Fahadisoam-panantenana Voalohany sy Lehibe teo amin’ny tantaran’ny Millerita, dia nanambara fahamarinana iray Izy izay nanazava ny zava-miafin’ny fahadisoam-panantenana.
After the First Disappointment in Millerite history, He removed His hand from a mistake in some of the figures represented upon the 1843 chart. The mistake represented the prophetic misunderstanding that produced the Disappointment. The Millerites were ultimately led to a series of understandings, which firmly established the starting date of the twenty-three hundred days. With a firm starting point, that was primarily based upon the date of the cross, they then saw the same prophetic evidence that they had been employing to identify 1843, actually identified not only 1844, but the very day of October 22, 1844.
Taorian’ny Fahadisoam-panantenana Voalohany teo amin’ny tantaran’ny Millerites, dia nesoriny ny tanany tamin’ny fahadisoana iray tao amin’ny tarehimarika sasany naseho teo amin’ny tabilao 1843. Io fahadisoana io no naneho ny tsy fahazoana ara-paminaniana izay niteraka ny Fahadisoam-panantenana. Nentina tamin’ny farany ho amin’ny andiana fahatakarana maro ny Millerites, ka ireo no nametraka tamin’ny fomba mafy orina ny daty fiaingan’ny roa arivo sy telon-jato andro. Rehefa nanana teboka fiaingana mafy orina izy ireo, izay nifototra indrindra tamin’ny datin’ny hazo fijaliana, dia hitany fa ilay porofo ara-paminaniana ihany izay efa nampiasainy hamantarana ny taona 1843, dia tena nanondro tsy ny taona 1844 ihany, fa ny andro marina mihitsy aza, dia ny 22 Oktobra 1844.
After the second and Great Disappointment, the Lord once again revealed a truth which answered all the prophetic dilemmas created by their incorrect proclamation that October 22, 1844 was the Second Coming of Christ. The Lord opened the subject of the Sanctuary, and its connected truths, and the Great Disappointment was explained.
Taorian’ny Fahadisoam-panantenana faharoa sy Lehibe, dia naneho indray ny Tompo fahamarinana iray izay namaly ireo olana ara-paminaniana rehetra nateraky ny fanambarany diso fa ny 22 Oktobra 1844 no Fiavian’i Kristy Fanindroany. Nosokafan’ny Tompo ny momba ny fitoerana masina sy ireo fahamarinana mifandray aminy, ka nohazavaina ny Fahadisoam-panantenana Lehibe.
“As a people, we should be earnest students of prophecy; we should not rest until we become intelligent in regard to the subject of the sanctuary, which is brought out in the visions of Daniel and John. This subject sheds great light on our present position and work, and gives us unmistakable proof that God has led us in our past experience. It explains our disappointment in 1844, showing us that the sanctuary to be cleansed was not the earth, as we had supposed, but that Christ then entered into the most holy apartment of the heavenly sanctuary, and is there performing the closing work of his priestly office, in fulfillment of the words of the angel to the prophet Daniel, ‘Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.’
“Amin’ny maha-vahoaka antsika dia tokony ho mpianatra mazoto ny faminaniana isika; tsy tokony hitsahatra isika mandra-pahazoantsika fahalalana mazava momba ny raharahan’ny fitoerana masina, izay aseho ao amin’ny fahitan’i Daniela sy Jaona. Ity lohahevitra ity dia manazava indrindra ny toerana sy ny asa iantsorohantsika amin’izao fotoana izao, ary manome antsika porofo tsy azo ivalozana fa Andriamanitra no nitarika antsika tamin’ny fanandramana efa nolalovantsika. Manazava ny fahadisoam-panantenantsika tamin’ny taona 1844 izany, ka mampiseho amintsika fa ny fitoerana masina hodiovina dia tsy ny tany, araka ny noheverintsika, fa Kristy kosa tamin’izany no niditra tao amin’ny efitra masina indrindra ao amin’ny fitoerana masina any an-danitra, ary any Izy no manatanteraka ny asa famaranana amin’ny raharaham-pisoronany, ho fanatanterahana ny tenin’ilay anjely tamin’i Daniela mpaminany hoe: ‘Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.’”
“Our faith in reference to the messages of the first, second, and third angels was correct. The great way-marks we have passed are immovable. Although the hosts of hell may try to tear them from their foundation, and triumph in the thought that they have succeeded, yet they do not succeed. These pillars of truth stand firm as the eternal hills, unmoved by all the efforts of men combined with those of Satan and his host. We can learn much, and should be constantly searching the Scriptures to see if these things are so. God’s people are now to have their eyes fixed on the heavenly sanctuary, where the final ministration of our great High Priest in the work of the judgment is going forward,—where he is interceding for his people.” Review and Herald, November 27, 1883.
“Ny finoantsika momba ny hafatry ny anjely voalohany sy faharoa ary fahatelo dia marina. Ireo marika lehibe efa nodiavintsika dia tsy azo hozongozonina. Na dia mety hiezaka handrovitra azy hiala amin’ny fotony aza ny tafiky ny helo, ka hifaly amin’ny fiheverana fa nahomby izy, dia tsy mahomby anefa izy. Ireo andrin’ny fahamarinana ireo dia mijoro mafy tahaka ny havoana mandrakizay, tsy voahozongozon’ny ezaka rehetra ataon’ny olona miaraka amin’izay ataon’i Satana sy ny tafiny. Betsaka no azontsika ianarana, ary tokony handinika lalandava ny Soratra Masina isika mba hahitana raha izany tokoa ireo zavatra ireo. Ankehitriny ny olon’Andriamanitra dia tokony hampifantoka ny masony amin’ny fitoerana masina any an-danitra, izay anohizan’ilay Mpisoronabentsika Lehibe ny fanompoana farany ao amin’ny asan’ny fitsarana,—izay anaovany fifonana ho an’ny vahoakany.” Review and Herald, 27 Novambra 1883.
The disappointment of the disciples at the crucifixion was based upon an incorrect understanding of the kingdom which Christ was to establish at the cross. John the Baptist and the apostle Paul’s ministries included the work of identifying that the dispensation of literal Israel and the literal earthly sanctuary had transitioned unto spiritual Israel and the spiritual heavenly sanctuary. The Lion of the tribe of Judah always explains the disappointment to the “wise.” The explanation of the prophetic riddle of Rome being “the eighth, but is of the seven”, is part of the work the Lion of Judah is accomplishing to explain the disappointment of July 18, 2020.
Ny fahadisoam-panantenan’ny mpianatra tamin’ny fanomboana an’i Kristy tamin’ny hazo fijaliana dia niorina tamin’ny fahatakarana diso ny amin’ilay fanjakana izay haorin’i Kristy teo amin’ny hazo fijaliana. Tao amin’ny asa fanompoan’i Jaona Mpanao-batisa sy ny apostoly Paoly no nisian’ny asa fanondroana fa ny fitantanana an’i Isiraely ara-bakiteny sy ny fitoerana masina eto an-tany ara-bakiteny dia efa nifindra ho amin’i Isiraely ara-panahy sy ny fitoerana masina any an-danitra ara-panahy. Ny Liona avy amin’ny firenen’i Joda dia manazava mandrakariva ny fahadisoam-panantenana amin’ny “hendry.” Ny fanazavana ny ankamantatra ara-paminaniana momba an’i Roma izay “fahavalo, nefa avy amin’ny fito”, dia anisan’ny asa tanterahin’ny Liona avy amin’i Joda mba hanazavana ny fahadisoam-panantenana tamin’ny 18 Jolay 2020.
The Millerites saw Rome as the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy, and they saw the distinction between paganism and papalism, but could not see papal Rome as the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy. Shortly after 1844, the pioneers saw that the United States was the next kingdom of Bible prophecy.
Hitan’ny Millerita ho i Roma no fanjakana fahefatra ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, ary hitany ny fahasamihafana misy eo amin’ny fanompoan-tsampy sy ny fahefana papaly, nefa tsy hitany i Roma papaly ho fanjakana fahadimy ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly. Fotoana fohy taorian’ny 1844, dia hitan’ireo mpisava lalana fa i Etazonia no fanjakana manaraka ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly.
That recognition is represented upon the 1850 pioneer chart, but their ability to recognize the full illustration of the kingdoms of Bible prophecy, as represented in Revelation chapter seventeen, was beyond their ability to comprehend, for they began to wander in the wilderness of Laodicea after their rejection of the “seven times” in 1863.
Izany fanekena izany dia aseho eo amin’ilay tabilao navoakan’ireo mpisava lalana tamin’ny 1850, nefa ny fahafahan’izy ireo mamantatra ny sary feno maneho ireo fanjakana ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, araka ny aseho ao amin’ny Apokalypsy toko fahafito ambin’ny folo, dia nihoatra noho izay takatry ny sainy, satria nanomboka nirenireny tany an-efitr’i Laodikia izy ireo taorian’ny nandavany ny “fito andro” tamin’ny 1863.
“The history of ancient Israel is a striking illustration of the past experience of the Adventist body. God led His people in the advent movement, even as He led the children of Israel from Egypt. In the great disappointment their faith was tested as was that of the Hebrews at the Red Sea. Had they still trusted to the guiding hand that had been with them in their past experience, they would have seen the salvation of God. If all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel’s message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts. A flood of light would have been shed upon the world. Years ago the inhabitants of the earth would have been warned, the closing work completed, and Christ would have come for the redemption of His people.
“Ny tantaran’ny Isiraely fahiny dia fanoharana manaitra ny amin’ny fanandramana taloha nolalovan’ny antokon’ny Advantista. Andriamanitra no nitarika ny olony tao amin’ny hetsika momba ny fiavian’i Kristy, tahaka ny nitarihany ny zanak’Isiraely nivoaka avy tany Egypta. Tamin’ilay fahadisoam-panantenana lehibe dia notsapaina ny finoan’izy ireo, tahaka ny nitsapana ny an’ny Hebreo teo amin’ny Ranomasina Mena. Raha mbola natoky ny tànana nitarika izay efa niaraka taminy tamin’ny fanandramany taloha ihany izy ireo, dia ho nahita ny famonjen’Andriamanitra. Raha izay rehetra niara-niasa tamin-kiray teo amin’ny asa tamin’ny 1844 ka nandray ny hafatry ny anjely fahatelo sy nitory izany tamin’ny herin’ny Fanahy Masina, dia ho niasa tamin-kery lehibe niaraka tamin’ny ezaka nataony ny Tompo. Ho nisy riaka fahazavana lehibe nalatsaka tamin’izao tontolo izao. Efa taona maro lasa izay no ho voataitra mialoha ny mponin’ny tany, ho vita ny asa famaranana, ary ho tonga Kristy ho fanavotana ny olony.
“It was not the will of God that Israel should wander forty years in the wilderness; He desired to lead them directly to the land of Canaan and establish them there, a holy, happy people. But ‘they could not enter in because of unbelief.’ Hebrews 3:19. Because of their backsliding and apostasy they perished in the desert, and others were raised up to enter the Promised Land. In like manner, it was not the will of God that the coming of Christ should be so long delayed and His people should remain so many years in this world of sin and sorrow. But unbelief separated them from God. As they refused to do the work which He had appointed them, others were raised up to proclaim the message. In mercy to the world, Jesus delays His coming, that sinners may have an opportunity to hear the warning and find in Him a shelter before the wrath of God shall be poured out.” The Great Controversy, 458.
“Tsy sitrapon’Andriamanitra ny hivezivezen’ny Isiraely efa-polo taona tany an-efitra; ny faniriany dia ny hitondra azy mivantana ho any amin’ny tanin’i Kanana sy hampiorina azy eo, ho vahoaka masina sy sambatra. Kanefa ‘tsy nahazo niditra izy noho ny tsi-finoana.’ Hebreo 3:19. Noho ny fihemorany sy ny fivadihany dia ringana tany an-efitra izy, ary natsangana kosa ny hafa hiditra ao amin’ny Tany Nampanantenaina. Toy izany koa, tsy sitrapon’Andriamanitra ny mba haharitra ela toy izao ny fiavian’i Kristy, ary ny vahoakany hijanona taona maro toy izao eto amin’ity tontolon’ny ota sy ny fahoriana ity. Fa ny tsi-finoana no nampisaraka azy tamin’Andriamanitra. Ary satria nandà tsy hanao ny asa izay notendreny azy izy, dia natsangana ny hafa hitory ny hafatra. Noho ny famindram-pony amin’izao tontolo izao dia ahemotr’i Jesosy ny fiaviany, mba hananan’ny mpanota fahafahana handre ny fampitandremana sy hahita ao aminy fialofana, dieny mbola tsy haidina ny fahatezeran’Andriamanitra.” Ilay Ady Lehibe, 458.
James and Ellen White both identified that the movement had transitioned into the movement of Laodicea in 1856, and in the previous passage she identifies that “if all who had labored unitedly in the work in 1844, had received the third angel’s message and proclaimed it in the power of the Holy Spirit, the Lord would have wrought mightily with their efforts.” Then she says, “In like manner,” the “backsliding and apostasy” that ancient Israel manifested, caused ancient Israel to “perish in the desert.” The passage is identifying that Laodicean Adventism began to wander in the wilderness in the time period when those who had proclaimed the message of the Midnight Cry were still alive.
James sy Ellen White dia samy nanondro fa nivadika ho amin’ny hetsik’i Laodikia ilay hetsika tamin’ny taona 1856, ary ao amin’ilay andalan-teny teo aloha dia ambarany fa “raha izay rehetra niara-niasa tamim-piraisan-tsaina tamin’ny asa tamin’ny 1844 no nandray ny hafatry ny anjely fahatelo sy nanambara izany tamin’ny herin’ny Fanahy Masina, dia ho niasa tamin-kery lehibe niaraka tamin’ny ezaka nataon’izy ireo ny Tompo.” Avy eo dia hoy izy: “Toy izany koa,” ny “fihemorana sy ny fivadiham-pinoana” izay nasehon’ny Isiraely fahiny, no nahatonga ny Isiraely fahiny “ho levona tany an-efitra.” Io andalan-teny io dia manondro fa ny Advantisma Laodikiana dia nanomboka nirenireny tany an-efitra tamin’ny vanim-potoana mbola nahavelona ireo izay nanambara ny hafatry ny Fitomaniana Amin’ny Misasakalina.
Today the theologians (the learned) identify various applications for Revelation chapter seventeen, that are either derived from the methodology of futurism that was invented by the Jesuits, or the corrupted theological practices of apostate Protestantism. The symbols of Revelation seventeen, are very simple. We have identified the necessary symbols, so we will return to the kingdoms represented there and align them with the kingdoms of Daniel chapter two, for Jesus always illustrates the end of a thing, with the beginning of a thing.
Amin’izao andro izao, ireo teolojiana (ireo manam-pahaizana) dia mamantatra fampiharana isan-karazany ho an’ny Apokalypsy toko faha‑17, izay na avy amin’ny fomba fiasa antsoina hoe futurisma noforonin’ny Zezoita, na avy amin’ireo fanao teolojika simba an’ny Protestanta niodina. Tena tsotra ny tandindona ao amin’ny Apokalypsy 17. Efa fantatsika ireo tandindona ilaina, koa hiverina amin’ireo fanjakana aseho ao isika ka hampifanaraka azy amin’ireo fanjakana ao amin’ny Daniela toko faha‑2, fa i Jesosy dia mandrakariva maneho ny faran’ny zavatra iray amin’ny alalan’ny fiandohan’izany zavatra izany.
And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. Revelation 17:10–12.
Ary misy mpanjaka fito: efa lavo ny dimy, ary ny iray eo ihany, ary ny anankiray mbola tsy tonga; ary rehefa tonga izy, dia tsy maintsy haharitra vetivety ihany. Ary ilay bibidia izay teo, nefa tsy eo, dia izy ihany no fahavalo, sady avy amin’ny fito, ary mankany amin’ny fandringanana. Ary ny tandroka folo izay hitanao dia mpanjaka folo, izay mbola tsy nandray fanjakana; fa mandray fahefana tahaka ny mpanjaka mandritra ny ora iray miaraka amin’ilay bibidia. Apokalypsy 17:10–12.
In verse three, John was spiritually conveyed to 1798. At that vantage point in history, he was told that there were five kingdoms that had already fallen. Those kingdoms were Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, pagan Rome and papal Rome. William Miller could not unravel this passage in chapter seventeen, for he could not recognize that papal Rome was a distinct kingdom from pagan Rome. Yet the sequence is addressed in chapters twelve and thirteen of Revelation, for the dragon in chapter twelve represented pagan Rome, the beast that came from the sea in chapter thirteen was the papacy and the earth beast is the United States. Sister White identifies all three of these beasts as the dragon, the beast and the false prophet. In providing her testimony she identifies the sequence of the kingdoms, and the sequence agrees with the application we are making of Revelation seventeen.
Ao amin’ny andininy fahatelo, dia nafindra ara-panahy ho amin’ny taona 1798 i Jaona. Tamin’izany toerana fijerena eo amin’ny tantara izany dia nolazaina taminy fa nisy fanjakana dimy izay efa lavo sahady. Ireo fanjakana ireo dia Babylona, Medo-Persia, Gresy, Roma jentilisa ary Roma papaly. Tsy nahavaha io andalan-teny ao amin’ny toko fahafito ambin’ny folo io i William Miller, satria tsy nahafantatra izy fa fanjakana miavaka amin’i Roma jentilisa i Roma papaly. Kanefa io filaharana io dia resahina ao amin’ny toko faharoa ambin’ny folo sy fahatelo ambin’ny folo ao amin’ny Apokalypsy, satria ilay dragona ao amin’ny toko faharoa ambin’ny folo dia naneho an’i Roma jentilisa, ilay bibidia niakatra avy tamin’ny ranomasina ao amin’ny toko fahatelo ambin’ny folo dia ny fahefana papaly, ary ilay bibidia avy amin’ny tany dia i Etazonia. Ny Rahavavy White dia manondro mazava ireo bibidia telo ireo ho ny dragona sy ny bibidia ary ny mpaminany sandoka. Tamin’ny fanolorany ny fijoroany ho vavolombelona dia asehony ny filaharan’ireo fanjakana, ary mifanaraka amin’ny fampiharana ataontsika ny Apokalypsy fahafito ambin’ny folo izany filaharana izany.
“Under the symbols of a great red dragon, a leopard-like beast, and a beast with lamblike horns, the earthly governments which would especially engage in trampling upon God’s law and persecuting His people, were presented to John. The war is carried on till the close of time. The people of God, symbolized by a holy woman and her children, were represented as greatly in the minority. In the last days only a remnant still existed. Of these John speaks as they ‘which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.’
“Eo ambanin’ny tandindon’ny dragona mena lehibe iray sy ny bibidia tahaka ny leoparda ary ny bibidia manana tandroka tahaka ny an’ny zanak’ondry no nanehoana tamin’i Jaona ireo fitondram-panjakana ety an-tany izay indrindra hirotsaka amin’ny fanitsakitsahana ny lalàn’Andriamanitra sy ny fanenjehana ny olony. Mitohy ny ady mandra-pahatongan’ny faran’ny andro. Ny olon’Andriamanitra, izay voatondro amin’ny alalan’ny vehivavy masina iray sy ny zanany, dia naseho ho vitsy an’isa indrindra. Amin’ny andro farany dia sisa ihany no mbola nisy. Ireo no lazain’i Jaona ho ‘izay mitandrina ny didin’Andriamanitra sy manana ny filazan’i Jesosy Kristy.’”
“Through paganism, and then through the Papacy, Satan exerted his power for many centuries in an effort to blot from the earth God’s faithful witnesses. Pagans and papists were actuated by the same dragon spirit. They differed only in that the Papacy, making a pretense of serving God, was the more dangerous and cruel foe. Through the agency of Romanism, Satan took the world captive. The professed church of God was swept into the ranks of this delusion, and for more than a thousand years the people of God suffered under the dragon’s ire. And when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution, John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work. This power, the last that is to wage war against the church and the law of God, was symbolized by a beast with lamblike horns.
“Tamin’ny alalan’ny fanompoan-tsampy, ary avy eo tamin’ny alalan’ny Fanjakana papaly, dia nampiharin’i Satana ny heriny nandritra ny taonjato maro mba hamongorana tsy ho etỳ ambonin’ny tany ny vavolombelon’Andriamanitra mahatoky. Ny mpanompo sampy sy ny papista dia notarihin’ilay fanahin’ny dragona iray ihany. Tsy nisy hafa tamin’izy ireo afa-tsy izao: ny Fanjakana papaly, izay nanao fihamboana ho manompo an’Andriamanitra, no fahavalo nahafaty olona kokoa sy lozabe kokoa. Tamin’ny alalan’ny asan’ny Romanisma no nanagadran’i Satana an’izao tontolo izao. Ny fiangonan’Andriamanitra izay nilaza tena ho Azy dia voafafa ho isan’ireo andian’ity fitaka ity, ary nandritra ny arivo taona mahery dia niaritra teo ambanin’ny fahatezeran’ilay dragona ny vahoakan’Andriamanitra. Ary rehefa ny Fanjakana papaly, izay nesorina taminy ny heriny, dia voatery nitsahatra tamin’ny fanenjehana, dia hitan’i Jaona fa nisy hery vaovao niakatra mba hamerina ny feon’ilay dragona sy hampandroso hatrany ilay asa feno habibiana sy fitenenan-dratsy an’Andriamanitra ihany. Io hery io, ilay farany izay hiady amin’ny fiangonana sy ny lalàn’Andriamanitra, dia naseho tamin’ny tandindon’ny bibidia iray nanana tandroka tahaka ny zanak’ondry.”
“But the stern tracing of the prophetic pencil reveals a change in this peaceful scene. The beast with lamblike horns speaks with the voice of a dragon, and ‘exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him.’ Prophecy declares that he will say to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast, and that “he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads; and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Thus Protestantism follows in the steps of the Papacy.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
“Kanefa ny fanaovana sary hentitra ataon’ny pensilihazo ara-paminaniana dia mampiseho fiovana eo amin’ity sehatra milamina ity. Ilay bibidia manana tandroka tahaka ny zanak’ondry dia miteny amin’ny feon’ny dragona, ary ‘mampiasa ny fahefana rehetra ananan’ilay bibidia voalohany eo anatrehany.’ Ny faminaniana dia manambara fa hilaza amin’izay monina ambonin’ny tany izy mba hanao sarin’ilay bibidia, ary fa ‘ataony handray marika eo amin’ny tanany ankavanana, na eo amin’ny handriny, ny olona rehetra, na ny madinika na ny lehibe, na ny manankarena na ny mahantra, na ny afaka na ny andevo; ary mba tsy hisy olona hahazo hividy na hivarotra, afa-tsy izay manana ny marika, na ny anaran’ilay bibidia, na ny isan’ny anarany.’ Koa amin’izany dia manaraka ny dian’ny Fanjakana Papaly ny Protestantisma.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
In the first paragraph of the last passage, Sister White identifies pagan Rome, papal Rome and the United States as “earthly governments.” In the second paragraph she identifies that the governments were sequential when she says, “through paganism, and then through the Papacy,” and “when the Papacy, robbed of its strength, was forced to desist from persecution, John beheld a new power coming up to echo the dragon’s voice, and carry forward the same cruel and blasphemous work.” She does not stop there though, for in the third paragraph she identifies that the United States was to force another kingdom upon the entire world. She says, “The beast with lamblike horns speaks with the voice of a dragon, and ‘exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him.’ Prophecy declares that he will say to them that dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast.”
Ao amin’ny fehintsoratra voalohany amin’ilay andalana farany, Rahavavy White dia manondro an’i Roma jentilisa, Roma papaly, ary Etazonia ho “fitondram-panjakana etỳ an-tany.” Ao amin’ny fehintsoratra faharoa dia ambarany fa nifandimby ireo fitondram-panjakana, rehefa hoy izy: “amin’ny alalan’ny fanompoan-tsampy, ary avy eo amin’ny alalan’ny Fanjakana papaly,” ary “rehefa ny Fanjakana papaly, izay nesorina ny heriny, dia noterena hitsahatra amin’ny fanenjehana, dia hitan’i Jaona ny hery vaovao iray niakatra mba hamerina ny feon’ilay dragona, sy hanohy ilay asa masiaka sy fitenenan-dratsy an’Andriamanitra ihany.” Tsy nijanona teo anefa izy, fa ao amin’ny fehintsoratra fahatelo dia ambarany fa i Etazonia no hanery fanjakana hafa iray hiorina amin’izao tontolo izao manontolo. Hoy izy: “Ilay bibidia manana tandroka tahaka ny an’ny zanak’ondry dia miteny amin’ny feon’ny dragona, ary ‘mampihatra ny fahefana rehetra an’ilay bibidia voalohany eo anatrehany.’ Ny faminaniana dia manambara fa izy no hilaza amin’izay monina ambonin’ny tany mba hanao sarin’ilay bibidia.”
Revelation chapters twelve and thirteen, identify pagan Rome, papal Rome, the United States and the world image of the beast, that is set up by the United States. The definition of the “image of the beast” is the combination of Church and State, and for the entire world to set up an image of the beast, by definition it identifies that in the last days, a one-world government will be forced upon the entire earth. The kingdom will consist of a State and a Church, with the Church ruling over the relationship. Revelation chapters twelve and thirteen, identify four sequential kingdoms, and those same kingdoms are represented in chapter seventeen, and also in Daniel chapter two.
Ny Apokalypsy toko faha-roa ambin’ny folo sy faha-telo ambin’ny folo dia manondro an’i Roma jentilisa, Roma papaly, i Etazonia, ary ny sarin’ilay bibidia eran-tany, izay atsangan’i Etazonia. Ny famaritana ny “sarin’ilay bibidia” dia ny fampiraisana ny Fiangonana sy ny Fanjakana, ary raha atsangana ho an’izao tontolo izao manontolo ny sarin’ilay bibidia, araka izany famaritana izany dia manambara fa amin’ny andro farany dia hisy fitondram-panjakana tokana eran-tany hapetraka an-tery amin’ny tany rehetra. Ny fanjakana dia hahitana Fanjakana sy Fiangonana, ka ny Fiangonana no hanapaka eo amin’ny fifandraisan’izy ireo. Ny Apokalypsy toko faha-roa ambin’ny folo sy faha-telo ambin’ny folo dia manondro fanjakana efatra mifandimby, ary ireo fanjakana ireo ihany no aseho ao amin’ny toko faha-fito ambin’ny folo, ary koa ao amin’ny Daniela toko faharoa.
In 1798, John saw the first five kingdoms of Bible prophecy had already fallen, and that in 1798, one kingdom then existed. The kingdom of Bible prophecy that began in 1798, was the earth beast of Revelation thirteen, that began as a lamb, but ends up speaking as a dragon. The United States is the two-horned sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, that follows the fifth kingdom of spiritual Babylon that had received a deadly wound. The fifth kingdom was spiritual Babylon, who had been typified by the first kingdom of literal Babylon. The sixth kingdom with two horns had been typified by the two arms of silver.
Tamin’ny taona 1798, dia hitan’i Jaona fa efa lavo ny fanjakana dimy voalohany ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, ary fa tamin’ny 1798 dia nisy fanjakana iray tamin’izany fotoana izany. Ny fanjakana ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly izay nanomboka tamin’ny 1798 dia ilay bibidia avy amin’ny tany ao amin’ny Apokalypsy toko faha-telo ambin’ny folo, izay nanomboka tahaka ny zanak’ondry, nefa niafara tamin’ny fitenenana tahaka ny dragona. I Etazonia no fanjakana fahenina manana tandroka roa ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, izay manaraka ny fanjakana fahadimy dia Babylona ara-panahy, izay efa nahazo ratra mahafaty. Ny fanjakana fahadimy dia Babylona ara-panahy, izay efa nasehon’ny fanjakana voalohany, dia Babylona ara-bakiteny, mialoha. Ny fanjakana fahenina manana tandroka roa dia efa nasehon’ireo sandry roa volafotsy mialoha.
In 1798, there was to be a kingdom that was yet in the future, for in 1798, “the other is not yet come.” When that seventh kingdom came into history, it would only “continue a short space.” The fifth kingdom received a deadly wound, the sixth kingdom had two horns and the seventh kingdom only continues for a brief period of time. The context of the passage identified that the seventh kingdom is represented by the “ten kings”, for when the “ten kings” become a kingdom, they only rule for “one hour,” and one “hour” is a short “space.” When the “ten kings” do reign, they rule together for the “one hour” with the beast.
Tamin’ny taona 1798 dia mbola hisy fanjakana iray ho avy amin’ny ho avy, satria tamin’ny taona 1798 dia “mbola tsy tonga ny anankiray.” Rehefa tonga teo amin’ny tantara io fanjakana fahafito io, dia “haharetan’ny fotoana fohy” ihany. Ny fanjakana fahadimy dia nahazo ratra mahafaty, ny fanjakana fahenina dia nanana tandroka roa, ary ny fanjakana fahafito kosa dia maharitra mandritra ny fotoana fohy ihany. Ny toe-javatra ao amin’ilay andininy dia mampahafantatra fa ny fanjakana fahafito dia asehon’ireo “mpanjaka folo”, satria rehefa tonga fanjakana ireo “mpanjaka folo”, dia manjaka “ora iray” ihany izy, ary ny “ora” iray dia “fotoana” fohy. Rehefa manjaka ireo “mpanjaka folo”, dia miara-manjaka amin’ilay bibidia mandritra ilay “ora iray” izy.
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. Revelation 17:12.
Ary ny tandroka folo izay hitanao dia mpanjaka folo, izay mbola tsy nandray fanjakana hatramin’izao; nefa mandray fahefana tahaka ny mpanjaka mandritra ny ora iray miaraka amin’ilay bibidia. Apokalypsy 17:12.
The “ten horns” are the seventh kingdom, but they rule together with the beast for “one hour”. The “one hour” is the period of the Sunday law crisis that begins at the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. They agree to rule with the beast, for they are forced to do so by the primary king, which is the United States. Sister White in the passage we just cited, identifies that the last power to persecute God’s people is the earth beast.
Ny “tandroka folo” dia ny fanjakana fahafito, nefa miara-manapaka amin’ilay bibidia mandritra ny “ora iray” izy ireo. Ny “ora iray” dia ny vanim-potoanan’ny krizin’ny lalàna Alahady izay manomboka amin’ilay lalàna Alahady ho avy tsy ho ela any Etazonia. Manaiky hiara-manapaka amin’ilay bibidia izy ireo, satria terena hanao izany amin’ilay mpanjaka voalohany, dia i Etazonia. Sister White, ao amin’ilay andalan-teny vao notononintsika, dia manondro fa ny fahefana farany hanenjika ny olon’Andriamanitra dia ilay bibidia avy amin’ny tany.
“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.
“Jaona dia nahita hery vaovao niakatra mba hanako ny feon’ilay dragona sy hanohy ilay asa feno habibiana sy fanevatevana an’Andriamanitra. Io hery io, izay farany hiady amin’ny fiangonana sy ny lalàn’Andriamanitra, dia naseho tamin’ny tandindona ho bibidia manana tandroka tahaka ny an’ny zanak’ondry.” Signs of the Times, November 1, 1899.
The last kingdom of Bible prophecy is brought about through the deception accomplished by the United States, as the False Prophet. The kingdom began as a lamb in 1798, but in the last days it forces the world to accept the worldwide image of the beast, which is by definition the combination of a Church and a State with the Church in control of the relationship. That kingdom is also identified as a three-fold union.
Ny fanjakana farany amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly dia entina amin’ny alalan’ny fitaka tanterahin’i Etazonia, amin’ny maha-Mpaminany sandoka azy. Nanomboka toy ny zanak’ondry izany fanjakana izany tamin’ny 1798, nefa amin’ny andro farany dia manery izao tontolo izao hanaiky ny sarin’ilay bibidia maneran-tany izy, izay araka ny famaritana azy dia fitambaran’ny Fiangonana sy ny Fanjakana, ka ny Fiangonana no mifehy izany fifandraisana izany. Izany fanjakana izany koa dia amantarana azy ho firaisana telo sosona.
“The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of Spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience.” The Great Controversy, 588.
Ny Protestanta any Etazonia no ho lohalaharana amin’ny faninjirana ny tanany hiampita ny hantsana ka hihazona ny tanan’ny Spiritisma; hiampita ny lavaka mangitsokitsoka izy mba hifampitantana amin’ny fahefana romana; ary eo ambanin’ny herin’ity firaisana telo sosona ity, ity firenena ity dia hanaraka ny dian’i Roma amin’ny fanosihosena ny zon’ny fieritreretana. The Great Controversy, 588.
The threefold union is the union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet, which in Revelation sixteen go forth to the kings of the earth and lead the world to Armageddon.
Ny firaisana telo sosona dia ny firaisan’ny dragona sy ny bibidia ary ny mpaminany sandoka, izay ao amin’ny Apokalypsy toko fahaenina ambin’ny folo no mivoaka ho any amin’ny mpanjakan’ny tany ka mitarika izao tontolo izao ho any Armagedona.
And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Revelation 16:13, 14.
Ary hitako fa nisy fanahy maloto telo, tahaka ny sahona, nivoaka avy tamin’ny vavan’ilay dragona sy tamin’ny vavan’ilay bibidia ary tamin’ny vavan’ilay mpaminany sandoka. Fa fanahin’ny demonia ireny, manao famantarana mahagaga, sady mandeha ho any amin’ny mpanjakan’ny tany sy izao tontolo izao rehetra izao mba hanangona azy ho amin’ny ady amin’ilay andro lehibe an’Andriamanitra Tsitoha. Apokalypsy 16:13, 14.
The “Roman power” is the papacy, the beast and the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy that received a deadly wound. The “Protestants” represent the United States, the false prophet, the sixth and final kingdom of Bible prophecy. “Spiritualism” is the United Nations, the dragon and the kingdom that agrees to rule for one hour with the beast. The threefold union is accomplished during the “one hour” that is the “hour” of the “great earthquake” in Revelation eleven, which is the soon-coming Sunday law.
Ny “fahefana romana” dia ny fahefam-papa, ilay bibidia sy ny fanjakana fahadimy ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly izay nahazo ratra mahafaty. Ny “Protestanta” dia maneho an’i Etazonia, ilay mpaminany sandoka, ary ny fanjakana fahenina sady farany ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly. Ny “fampianarana momba ny fanahy” dia ny Firenena Mikambana, ilay dragona ary ilay fanjakana izay manaiky hiara-manjaka mandritra ny ora iray miaraka amin’ilay bibidia. Io firaisana telo sosona io dia tanteraka mandritra ilay “ora iray” izay ilay “ora” an’ilay “horohorontany lehibe” ao amin’ny Apokalypsy toko fahairaika ambin’ny folo, izay ilay lalàn’ny Alahady ho avy tsy ho ela.
“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.
“Ka amin’ny alalan’ny didy manery ny fananganana ny Fanjakana papa, ka mandika ny lalàn’Andriamanitra, dia hisaraka tanteraka amin’ny fahamarinana ny firenentsika. Rehefa haninjitra ny tanany hiampita ny hantsana ny Protestantisma mba hihazona ny tanan’ny fahefana romana, rehefa hihoatra ny lavaka mangitsokitsoka izy mba hifandray tanana amin’ny Spiritisma, rehefa, eo ambanin’ny herin’ity firaisana telo sosona ity, ny firenentsika handà ny foto-kevitra rehetra ao amin’ny Lalàmpanorenany amin’ny maha-governemanta protestanta sy repoblikana azy, ary hanao fepetra ho amin’ny fampielezana ny lainga sy ny fitaka papaly, dia amin’izany no ahafantarantsika fa tonga ny fotoana hisehoan’ny asan’i Satana mahagaga, ary efa akaiky ny farany.” Testimonies, boky faha-5, 451.
In Daniel chapter two, Babylon, the first kingdom of Bible prophecy represented by the head of gold, typifies spiritual Babylon, the fifth kingdom of Bible prophecy. The twofold kingdom of the Medes and Persians, the shoulders and arms of silver, the second kingdom of Bible prophecy in Daniel two, represents the two-horned earth beast, the United States, the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. The brass of the image of Daniel two, representing Greece, the third kingdom of Bible prophecy, represents the United Nations, the seventh head that continues for “one hour”, and that agrees to accept a position in the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and false prophet.
Ao amin’ny toko faharoa ao amin’ny Daniela, Babylona, ilay fanjakana voalohany amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly izay asehon’ny loha volamena, dia tandindon’i Babylona ara-panahy, ilay fanjakana fahadimin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly. Ny fanjakana roa tonta an’ny Medianina sy Persiana, ny soroka sy sandry volafotsy, ilay fanjakana faharoa amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly ao amin’ny Daniela 2, dia maneho ilay bibidia avy amin’ny tany manana tandroka roa, dia Etazonia, ilay fanjakana fahenin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly. Ny varahina amin’ilay sariolona ao amin’ny Daniela 2, izay maneho an’i Gresy, ilay fanjakana fahatelo amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, dia maneho ny Firenena Mikambana, ilay loha fahafito izay maharitra “ora iray”, ary izay manaiky handray toerana ao amin’ilay firaisana telo sosona an’ny dragona sy ny bibidia ary ny mpaminany sandoka.
The iron kingdom of Daniel chapter two, the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy, represents the eighth kingdom, that is of the seven. Literal pagan Rome, the fourth kingdom, represents modern Rome, which is a kingdom that is structured with the combination of Church and State, with the Church ruling over the relationship. That kingdom is threefold in nature, for the premier king of the “ten kings” is the sixth kingdom which is the earth beast. The sixth kingdom is Ahab, who was married to Jezebel. The sixth kingdom when represented in its threefold union is modern Rome, that was preceded by the fifth kingdom that was papal Rome, which was preceded by the fourth kingdom of pagan Rome.
Ny fanjakana vy ao amin’ny Daniela toko faharoa, ilay fanjakana fahefatra ao amin’ny faminanian’ny Baiboly, dia maneho ilay fanjakana fahavalo, izay avy amin’ny fito. Roma mpanompo sampy ara-bakiteny, ilay fanjakana fahefatra, dia maneho an’i Roma maoderina, izay fanjakana voaorina amin’ny firaisan’ny Fiangonana sy ny Fanjakana, ka ny Fiangonana no manjaka amin’izany fifandraisana izany. Telo sosona ny toetran’izany fanjakana izany, satria ny mpanjaka lehibe indrindra amin’ireo “mpanjaka folo” dia ilay fanjakana fahenina, izay ilay bibidia avy amin’ny tany. Ilay fanjakana fahenina dia Ahaba, izay nanambady an’i Jezebela. Ilay fanjakana fahenina, rehefa aseho ao amin’ny firaisany telo sosona, dia Roma maoderina, izay nialohavan’ilay fanjakana fahadimy, dia Roma papaly, izay nialohavan’ilay fanjakana fahefatra, dia Roma mpanompo sampy.
The Millerites only saw Rome as the fourth and final kingdom. They recognized it was twofold in nature, but could see no other following earthly kingdom. The fourth kingdom was pagan Rome, which preceded papal Rome the fifth kingdom, that is followed by modern Rome the sixth kingdom. The sixth kingdom is the third of three Roman manifestations.
Ny Millerita dia i Roma ihany no hitany ho fanjakana fahefatra sady farany. Fantatr’izy ireo fa roa sosona ny toetrany, nefa tsy nahita fanjakana ara-nofo hafa hanaraka azy izy. Ny fanjakana fahefatra dia i Roma jentilisa, izay nialoha an’i Roma papa, dia ny fanjakana fahadimy; ary izany kosa dia arahin’i Roma maoderina, dia ny fanjakana fahenina. Ny fanjakana fahenina no fahatelo amin’ireo fisehoan’i Roma telo.
The threefold union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet is both modern Rome and also Babylon the Great, whose deadly wound is healed. The United States, the United Nations and the whore of Tyre represent the eighth and final kingdom, but they are all three allies in the threefold union of the sixth kingdom, which is the last power “to wage war against the church and the law of God.”
Ny firaisana telo sosona misy ny dragona sy ny bibidia ary ny mpaminany sandoka dia i Roma maoderina sady koa i Babylona Lehibe, izay sitrana ny feriny mahafaty. Ny Etazonia, ny Firenena Mikambana ary ilay vehivavy janga avy any Tyro no misolo tena ny fanjakana fahavalo sy farany; kanefa izy telo ireo dia samy mpiara-dia ao amin’ilay firaisana telo sosona an’ny fanjakana fahenina, izay no hery farany “hiady amin’ny fiangonana sy ny lalàn’Andriamanitra.”
The United States is one-third of the sixth kingdom. The United Nations, as part of the threefold union, is also one-third of the sixth kingdom, and the papacy is also one-third of the sixth kingdom. At this level the number for the United States is SIX, and the number for the United Nations is SIX and the number of the papacy is SIX. The threefold union represents the number of a man, the “man of sin”, and his number is SIX-SIX-SIX.
Etazonia dia ampahatelon’ny fanjakana fahenina. Ny Firenena Mikambana, amin’ny maha-ampahany azy amin’ilay firaisana telo sosona, dia ampahatelon’ny fanjakana fahenina koa; ary ny papa koa dia ampahatelon’ny fanjakana fahenina. Amin’ity ambaratonga ity, ny isa ho an’i Etazonia dia ENINA, ary ny isa ho an’ny Firenena Mikambana dia ENINA, ary ny isan’ny papa dia ENINA. Ilay firaisana telo sosona dia maneho ny isan’ny olona iray, dia ilay “olona ota”, ary ny isany dia ENINA-ENINA-ENINA.
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.
Inty no fahendrena. Izay manan-tsaina aoka izy hanisa ny isan’ny bibidia; fa isan’olona izany; ary ny isany dia enin-jato sy enim-polo ary enina. Apokalypsy 13:18.
The sixth and final separate kingdom is the United States, but it deceives the world, for it is the False Prophet.
Ny fanjakana fahenina sady farany izay misaraka dia i Etazonia, nefa mamitaka izao tontolo izao izy, fa izy no Mpaminany sandoka.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. Revelation 13:12–14.
Ary izy mampihatra ny fahefana rehetra ananan’ilay bibidia voalohany eo anatrehany, ka mampiankohoka ny tany sy izay monina eo aminy hiankohoka amin’ilay bibidia voalohany, izay sitrana tamin’ilay feriny nahafaty azy. Ary manao famantarana lehibe izy, dia mampidina afo avy any an-danitra ho amin’ny tany eo imason’ny olona aza; ary mamitaka izay monina ambonin’ny tany amin’ny alalan’ireo fahagagana izay nomena fahefana azy hatao eo anatrehan’ilay bibidia, ka milaza amin’izay monina ambonin’ny tany mba hanao sarin’ilay bibidia, izay voan’ny ratra tamin’ny sabatra nefa velona ihany. Apokalypsy 13:12–14.
The “power of the first beast before him,” represents the power that was given to the papacy by the kings of Europe, beginning with Clovis in the year 496. The United States uses its military might, accompanied by its economic might to deceive and coerce the world. The United States forces the world to worship the papacy, through the enforcement of Sunday worship. The United States performs great wonders by making fire, (a symbol of a message) to come down out of heaven, that is to be accomplished by the Information Super-Highway, that represents the full development of brainwashing and propaganda, that is the modern manifestation of hypnosis. Because of the escalating crisis brought upon the earth by Islam, as they fulfill their role in angering the nations, the world is deceived to accept the worldwide system of the combination of Church and State that consists of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet.
Ny “fahefan’ilay bibidia voalohany eo anatrehany” dia maneho ny fahefana izay nomen’ny mpanjakan’i Eoropa ny papauté, nanomboka tamin’i Clovis tamin’ny taona 496. Mampiasa ny heriny ara-tafika i Etazonia, miaraka amin’ny heriny ara-toekarena, mba hamitahana sy hanerena izao tontolo izao. Terena hanompo ny papauté izao tontolo izao amin’ny alalan’ny fampiharana ny fitsaohana ny Alahady ataon’i Etazonia. Manao fahagagana lehibe i Etazonia amin’ny fampidinana afo, (mariky ny hafatra), hidina avy any an-danitra, izay hotanterahina amin’ny alalan’ny Lalam-baovao Ambony indrindra, izay maneho ny fivoarana feno amin’ny fanasana atidoha sy ny propagandy, izay fisehoan’ny fanovan-tsaina amin’ny endriny maoderina. Noho ny krizy mihamafy izay entin’ny Islamy amin’ny tany, eo am-panatanterahany ny anjara asany amin’ny fampahatezerana ny firenena, dia voafitaka izao tontolo izao hanaiky ny rafitra maneran-tany amin’ny fitambaran’ny Fiangonana sy ny Fanjakana, izay ahitana ny dragona sy ny bibidia ary ny mpaminany sandoka.
When verse eighteen of Revelation thirteen says count the number of the beast, the number is the three powers that come together to make up the sixth and final kingdom. When that kingdom of 666, is put in place, it will be the fulfillment of the prophetic riddle that the eighth king is of the seven. That prophetic riddle is part of the truth that is unsealed when the Lion of the tribe of Judah, unseals the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
Rehefa milaza ny andininy faha-valo ambin’ny folo ao amin’ny Apokalypsy toko faha-telo ambin’ny folo hoe isao ny isan’ilay bibidia, dia ireo hery telo miara-mivondrona mandrafitra ny fanjakana fahenina sady farany no tondroin’izany isa izany. Rehefa apetraka izany fanjakan’ny 666 izany, dia ho fahatanterahan’ilay ankamantatra ara-paminaniana milaza fa avy amin’ny fito ny mpanjaka fahavalo. Izany ankamantatra ara-paminaniana izany dia anisan’ny fahamarinana voaseha rehefa manokatra ny Apokalypsin’i Jesosy Kristy ny Liona avy amin’ny firenen’i Joda.
For this reason the riddle of the final kingdom that is the threefold sixth kingdom, that is also spiritual Babylon that was forgotten for seventy symbolic years, and who is modern Rome, and who is also the worldwide image of the beast, who was typified by the first kingdom of Babylon, and the fourth kingdom of pagan Rome, is twice witnessed to by the identification that it is the “wise” that will understand this truth, for the enigma of 666, is premised upon those who have wisdom, as is the enigma of the eighth king being of the seven.
Noho izany, ny ankamantatry ny fanjakana farany, izay ilay fanjakana fahenina in-telo, sady Babylona ara-panahy izay hadino nandritra ny fito-polo taona an’ohatra, ary i Roma maoderina, sady koa ilay sarin’ny bibidia maneran-tany, izay nasehon’ilay fanjakana voalohany, dia Babylona, sy ilay fanjakana fahefatra, dia i Roma jentilisa, dia vavolombelona indroa no anamarinana azy amin’ny fanondroana fa ny “hendry” no hahatakatra izany fahamarinana izany; fa ny ankamantatry ny 666 dia miorina amin’izay manana fahendrena, tahaka ny ankamantatry ny mpanjaka fahavalo izay avy amin’ny fito.
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.
Eto no fahendrena. Izay manan-tsaina aoka izy hanisa ny isan’ny bibidia; fa isan’olona izany; ary enin-jato sy enim-polo ary enina ny isany. Apokalypsy 13:18.
And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. Revelation 17:9.
Ary indro ny saina izay manana fahendrena. Ny loha fito dia tendrombohitra fito, izay ipetrahan-dravehivavy. Apokalypsy 17:9.
The unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ is understood by the “wise,” not by the wicked. Both references of wisdom in the book of Revelation are about those who have “understanding,” and what the “wise” understand is the “increase of knowledge”. The “increase of knowledge” that is the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the revelation that the eighth kingdom, which is the threefold kingdom of 666, is also represented in Daniel chapter two, for the jewels of Miller’s dream are to shine ten times brighter in the last days.
Ny fanokafana ny fanambaran’i Jesosy Kristy dia takatry ny “hendry”, fa tsy ny ratsy fanahy. Samy momba ireo izay manana “fahalalana” avokoa ireo firesahana roa momba ny fahendrena ao amin’ny bokin’ny Apokalypsy, ary izay takatry ny “hendry” dia ny “fitomboan’ny fahalalana”. Ny “fitomboan’ny fahalalana” izay Fanambaran’i Jesosy Kristy dia ny fanambarana fa ny fanjakana fahavalo, izay ilay fanjakana telo sosona an’ny 666, dia aseho koa ao amin’ny Daniela toko faharoa, fa ny firavaka sarobidin’ny nofin’i Miller dia tsy maintsy hamirapiratra avo folo heny kokoa amin’ny andro farany.
We will continue this study in the next article.
Hohizantsika ao amin’ny lahatsoratra manaraka ity fandalinana ity.
“In the Revelation are portrayed the deep things of God. The very name given to its inspired pages, ‘the Revelation,’ contradicts the statement that this is a sealed book. A revelation is something revealed. The Lord Himself revealed to His servant the mysteries contained in this book, and He designs that they shall be open to the study of all. Its truths are addressed to those living in the last days of this earth’s history, as well as to those living in the days of John. Some of the scenes depicted in this prophecy are in the past, some are now taking place; some bring to view the close of the great conflict between the powers of darkness and the Prince of heaven, and some reveal the triumphs and joys of the redeemed in the earth made new.
Ao amin’ny Apokalypsy no anehoana ireo zavatra lalina momba an’Andriamanitra. Ny anarana mihitsy izay nomena ireo pejiny voaingam-panahy, hoe “ny Apokalypsy,” dia manohitra ny filazana fa boky voaisy tombo-kase ity. Ny fanambarana dia zavatra ambarambara. Ny Tompo mihitsy no nanambara tamin’ny mpanompony ny zava-miafina voarakitra ato amin’ity boky ity, ary ny fikasany dia ny mba hovelarina ho amin’ny fandalinan’ny rehetra izany. Ny fahamarinany dia atokana ho an’ireo izay miaina amin’ny andro farany amin’ny tantaran’ity tany ity, ary koa ho an’ireo izay niaina tamin’ny andron’i Jaona. Ny sasany amin’ireo seho aseho ao amin’ity faminaniana ity dia efa lasa, ny sasany kosa ankehitriny no mitranga; ny sasany mampiseho ny famaranana ny ady lehibe eo amin’ny herin’ny maizina sy ny Andrianan’ny lanitra, ary ny sasany manambara ny fandresena sy ny fifalian’ny voavotra ao amin’ny tany natao vaovao.
“Let none think, because they cannot explain the meaning of every symbol in the Revelation, that it is useless for them to search this book in an effort to know the meaning of the truth it contains. The One who revealed these mysteries to John will give to the diligent searcher for truth a foretaste of heavenly things. Those whose hearts are open to the reception of truth will be enabled to understand its teachings, and will be granted the blessing promised to those who ‘hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein.’
“Aoka tsy hisy hihevitra, satria tsy hainy hazavaina ny hevitry ny tandindona tsirairay ao amin’ny Apokalypsy, fa tsy mahasoa azy ny mandinika ity boky ity amin’ny fiezahana hahalala ny hevitry ny fahamarinana raketiny. Ilay Iray izay nanambara ireo zava-miafina ireo tamin’i Jaona dia hanome ho an’izay mikatsaka ny fahamarinana amim-pahazotoana santatra ny amin’ny zavatra any an-danitra. Ireo izay misokatra ny fony handray ny fahamarinana dia hatao mahazo ny fampianarany, ary homena azy ny fitahiana nampanantenaina ho an’izay ‘mihaino ny tenin’ity faminaniana ity ka mitandrina izay zavatra voasoratra ao anatiny.’”
“In the Revelation all the books of the Bible meet and end. Here is the complement of the book of Daniel. One is a prophecy; the other a revelation. The book that was sealed is not the Revelation, but that portion of the prophecy of Daniel relating to the last days. The angel commanded, ‘But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end.’ Daniel 12:4.” Acts of the Apostles, 584, 585.
“Eo amin’ny Apokalypsy no ifamenoan’ny boky rehetra ao amin’ny Baiboly sy iafaran’izy ireo. Eto no ahitana ny famenon’ny bokin’i Daniela. Ny iray dia faminaniana; ny iray kosa fanambarana. Ny boky izay nasiana tombo-kase dia tsy ny Apokalypsy, fa ilay ampahany amin’ny faminanian’i Daniela izay mifandray amin’ny andro farany. Nandidy ilay anjely hoe: ‘Fa ianao kosa, ry Daniela, afeno ny teny, ary asio tombo-kase ny boky mandra-pahatongan’ny andro farany.’ Daniela 12:4.” Asan’ny Apostoly, 584, 585.
