The last promise of the Old Testament is that before the great and terrible day of the Lord, Elijah would come.
Isezerano rya nyuma ryo mu Isezerano rya Kera ni uko mbere y’umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Umwami, Eliya azaza.
Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:4–5.
Mwibuke amategeko ya Mose umugaragu wanjye, ayo namutegetse i Horebu ku bwa Isirayeli yose, ari yo mategeko n’amateka. Dore, nzaboherereza Eliya umuhanuzi mbere y’uko umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka uza: kandi azagarura umutima wa ba se ku bana babo, n’umutima w’abana ku ba se, kugira ngo ntazaza nkubita isi umuvumo. Malaki 4:4–5.
The Elijah that comes in advance of “the great and dreadful day of the Lord,” is an individual messenger, and also the movement associated with the message the messenger proclaims. The Elijah that is sent is therefore the one hundred and forty-four thousand who do not taste death, just as Enoch and Elijah represent. They are those who are lifted up as an ensign at the soon-coming Sunday law.
Eliya uza mbere y’“umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka,” ni intumwa y’umuntu ku giti cye, kandi ni n’umuryango ufitanye isano n’ubutumwa iyo ntumwa itangaza. Bityo rero, Eliya woherejwe ni ba bantu ibihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bine badapfa, nk’uko Enoki na Eliya babihagarariye. Abo ni bo bazamurwa nk’ikirango mu gihe cy’itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba.
The last day Elijah was also represented by John the Baptist, but John did not represent the one hundred and forty-four thousand. He represented those who join the movement and accept the message of the last day messenger, who are then murdered by the papacy in the hour of the Sunday law crisis that begins at the soon coming Sunday law and ends when Michael stands up and the papacy comes to its end with none to help.
Eliya wo mu minsi y’imperuka na we yagereranyijwe na Yohana Umubatiza, ariko Yohana ntiyagereranyaga ibihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bine. Yagereranyaga abifatanya n’uwo murimo kandi bakemera ubutumwa bw’intumwa yo mu minsi y’imperuka, hanyuma bakicwa n’ubupapa mu gihe cy’akaga k’itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru gatangira ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba kandi kakarangira igihe Mikayeli ahagurukiye, maze ubupapa bukagera ku iherezo ryabwo butagira n’umwe wo kubutabara.
Elijah is represented on Mount Carmel and John is represented in Herod’s banquet hall. Those two historical witnesses identify the two groups of God’s last day people represented in Revelation chapter seven. The one hundred and forty-four thousand and the great multitude align with Mount Carmel and Herod’s birthday party. Those two prophetic lines provide a sound point of reference to carefully identify the elements of the eighth head, that is of the seven heads in Revelation seventeen, with enough prophetic detail to clarify how and why the last president, which is the eighth president that is of the seven, becomes the great dictator of the United States in the last movements of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy.
Eliya ahagarariwe ku Musozi wa Karumeli, kandi Yohana ahagarariwe mu cyumba cy’ibirori bya Herode. Abo bahamya babiri b’amateka bagaragaza imitwe ibiri y’abantu b’Imana bo mu minsi y’imperuka ihagarariwe mu Ibyahishuwe igice cya karindwi. Abo ijana na mirongo ine na bane n’icyo giterane kinini bihura n’Umusozi wa Karumeli n’ibirori by’isabukuru y’amavuko ya Herode. Iyo mirongo ibiri y’ubuhanuzi itanga urufatiro rwizewe rwo kumenyekanisha neza ibice bigize umutwe wa munani, ni ukuvuga uwo mu mitwe irindwi ivugwa mu Ibyahishuwe cumi na karindwi, hamwe n’amakuru ahagije y’ubuhanuzi asobanura neza uko n’impamvu perezida wa nyuma, ari we perezida wa munani ukomoka muri ba barindwi, ahinduka umunyagitugu mukuru wa Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika mu migendekere ya nyuma y’ubwami bwa gatandatu bw’ubuhanuzi bwa Bibiliya.
At the Sunday law the threefold union is accomplished.
Ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru, ubwo bumwe bw’impande eshatu burasohozwa.
“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.
“Binyuze ku itegeko rishyiraho ubutegetsi bw’Ubupapa mu kurenga ku mategeko y’Imana, igihugu cyacu kizitandukanya burundu no gukiranuka. Igihe Ubuprotestanti buzarambura ukuboko kwabwo hakurya y’umworera kugira ngo bufate ukuboko kw’ububasha bw’i Roma, igihe buzasandara hakurya y’inyenga kugira ngo buhuze amaboko na Mwuka, igihe, munsi y’ingaruka z’ubu bumwe bwikubye gatatu, igihugu cyacu kizihakana buri hame ry’Itegeko Nshinga ryacyo nk’ubutegetsi bw’Abaprotestanti n’ubwa repubulika, kandi kigateganya uburyo bwo gukwirakwiza ibinyoma n’ibiyobya by’ubupapa, ni bwo tuzamenya ko igihe cyo gukora kw’igitangaza kwa Satani kigeze kandi ko imperuka iri bugufi.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.
Yet in this illustration there is a sequence, and that sequence is a subject of the inspired word. It is an event that happens at the decree, which in one sense is a singular event, but it is actually a very careful sequence of events. At the “decree” the United States ceases to be the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, which means that it is there that the seventh kingdom begins, but the seventh kingdom agrees to give their kingdom unto the beast. When the false prophet is defeated, the dragon takes its position, and immediately gives half its kingdom to the beast.
Nyamara muri iki kigereranyo harimo urukurikirane, kandi urwo rukurikirane ni ingingo y’ijambo ryahumetswe. Ni igikorwa kiba igihe cy’itegeko, ari na cyo mu buryo bumwe gisa n’igikorwa kimwe rukumbi, nyamara mu by’ukuri kikaba ari urukurikirane rw’ibikorwa byateguwe neza cyane. Ku “itegeko” Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika zireka kuba ubwami bwa gatandatu bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya, bisobanura ko ari aho ubwami bwa karindwi butangirira; ariko ubwami bwa karindwi bwemera guha inyamaswa ubwami bwabwo. Iyo umuhanuzi w’ibinyoma aneshejwe, ikiyoka gifata umwanya wacyo, maze ako kanya kigaha inyamaswa igice cy’ubwami bwacyo.
At Mount Carmel, there were four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal, and there four hundred prophets of the grove who were in Samaria eating at Jezebel’s table.
Ku Musozi wa Karumeli hari abahanuzi ba Bali magana ane na mirongo itanu, kandi hari n’abahanuzi magana ane b’ikibira bari i Samariya, barira ku meza ya Yezebeli.
Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel’s table. 1 Kings 18:19.
Nuko rero tuma, unkoranyirize Abisirayeli bose ku musozi wa Karumeli, n’abahanuzi ba Bali magana ane na mirongo itanu, n’abahanuzi b’ibigirwamana byo mu mashyamba magana ane, barira ku meza ya Yezebeli. 1 Abami 18:19.
Elijah identifies the confrontation at Mount Carmel as a controversy, not only the question of who was the true God, but also that it was a controversy over who was the true prophet.
Eliya agaragaza ko guhangana kwabereye ku musozi wa Karumeli ari impaka, atari gusa ikibazo cy’uwo Imana y’ukuri yari yo, ahubwo ko nanone byari impaka ku wahanuraga by’ukuri.
Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 1 Kings 18:22.
Nuko Eliya abwira abantu ati: “Jyewe, ni jye jyenyine usigaye ndi umuhanuzi w’Uwiteka; ariko abahanuzi ba Bāli ni abantu magana ane na mirongo itanu.” 1 Abami 18:22.
When Elijah’s offering was consumed by the fire that came down out of heaven, he then slew the four hundred and fifty prophets of Baal with his own hands.
Igihe ituro rya Eliya ryakongorwaga n’umuriro wamanutse uvuye mu ijuru, yahise yicisha amaboko ye ubwe abahanuzi ba Baali magana ane na mirongo itanu.
And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there. 1 Kings 18:40.
Maze Eliya arababwira ati: Nimufate abahanuzi ba Bayali; ntihakagire n’umwe muri bo ucika. Nuko barabafata; Eliya arabamanura abageza ku mugezi wa Kisoni, abicirayo. 1 Abami 18:40.
Baal was a false masculine deity, and the four hundred prophets of the grove, who were still with Jezebel, eating at her table in the city of Samaria were the prophets of the female deity, Ashtaroth. The female deity survived Elijah’s slaughter of the prophets of Mount Carmel.
Bāli yari ikigirwamana cy’ikinyoma cy’ubugabo, kandi ba bahanuzi magana ane bo mu gashyamba k’inyegamo, bari bagisigaranye na Yezebeli, bariraga ku meza ye mu murwa wa Samariya, ni bo bahanuzi b’ikigirwamana cy’umugore, Asitaroti. Ikigirwamana cy’umugore cyarokotse ubwicanyi Eliya yakoreye abahanuzi ku Musozi wa Karumeli.
“The people upon the mountain prostrate themselves in terror and awe before the unseen God. They cannot look upon the bright, consuming fire sent from Heaven. They fear that they will be consumed in their apostasy and sins. They cry out with one voice, which resounds over the mountain, and echoes to the plains below them with terrible distinctness, ‘The Lord, he is the God; the Lord, he is the God.’ Israel is at last aroused and undeceived. They see their sin and how greatly they have dishonored God. Their anger is aroused against the prophets of Baal. With fearful terror, Ahab and Baal’s priests witnessed the wonderful exhibition of Jehovah’s power. Again is heard, in startling words of command, the voice of Elijah to the people, ‘Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape.’ And the people were ready to obey the word of Elijah. They seized the false prophets who had deluded them, and brought them to the brook Kishon, and there Elijah, with his own hand, slew these idolatrous priests.” Review and Herald, October 7, 1873.
Abantu bari kuri uwo musozi bikubita hasi bubamye kubera ubwoba no gutinya imbere y’Imana itaboneka. Ntibashobora guhanga amaso uwo muriro urabagirana kandi ukongora woherejwe uturutse mu Ijuru. Batinya ko bazarimburwa kubera ubuhakanyi bwabo n’ibyaha byabo. Barangurura ijwi rimwe, rikumvikana hejuru y’umusozi kandi rikagera mu bibaya biri munsi yabo mu buryo buteye ubwoba kandi busobanutse neza, bati: “Uwiteka ni we Mana; Uwiteka ni we Mana.” Amaherezo Isirayeli irakangutse kandi ivuye mu bushukanyi. Babona icyaha cyabo n’ukuntu basuzuguye Imana bikomeye. Uburakari bwabo bwabyutse burwanya abahanuzi ba Bāli. Ahabu n’abatambyi ba Bāli barebaga, bafite ubwoba bukomeye, uko imbaraga za Yehova zigaragariye mu buryo butangaje. Hongeye kumvikana ijwi rya Eliya abwira abantu, mu magambo y’itegeko atangaje kandi akomeye, ati: “Mufate abahanuzi ba Bāli; ntihakagire n’umwe muri bo ucika.” Kandi abantu bari biteguye kumvira ijambo rya Eliya. Bafashe abo bahanuzi b’ibinyoma bari barabayobeje, babajyana ku mugezi wa Kishoni, maze aho Eliya ubwe, n’ukuboko kwe, yicirayo abo batambyi b’abasenga ibigirwamana.” Review and Herald, 7 Ukwakira 1873.
Mount Carmel typifies the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. It is then that the ensign of the one hundred and forty-four thousand (typified by Elijah), is lifted up. It is there that the genuine Protestant horn is distinctly manifested in contrast with the counterfeit Protestant horn, who is in Samaria, eating Jezebel’s diet. It is there that the Republican horn that had become the horn of both church and state leading up to Mount Carmel comes to its end as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. What remains then is Ahab, and his tenfold nation, and Jezebel, who has been hiding in Samaria, while she dines with apostate Protestants. The sixth kingdom is finished, and the rain then comes without measure.
Umusozi Karumeli ushushanya itegeko rya ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika. Icyo gihe ni ho ibendera ry’abahumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bane (bashushanyijwe na Eliya), rihagurutswa. Ni ho ihembe nyakuri ry’Abaporotesitanti ryerekanirwa mu buryo bugaragara, ritandukanyijwe n’ihembe ry’Abaporotesitanti ry’impimbano, riri i Samariya, rirya ibyokurya bya Yezebeli. Ni ho ihembe rya Repubulikani, ryari ryarabaye ihembe ry’itorero na leta byombi kugeza ku Musozi Karumeli, rigera ku iherezo ryaryo nk’ubwami bwa gatandatu bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya. Icyo gisigara icyo gihe ni Ahabu, n’ishyanga rye rigwijwe inshuro icumi, na Yezebeli, wari warihishe i Samariya, mu gihe yasangiraga ku meza n’Abaporotesitanti b’abahakanyi. Ubwami bwa gatandatu buba burangiye, maze imvura igahita iza nta rugero.
At Herod’s birthday party, Elijah, represented by John the Baptist is in the Roman prison awaiting deliverance or death. There are no prophets of Baal to accomplish the dance of deception, just Salome, Jezebel’s daughter. Herod and his royal friends are drunk with the wine of Babylon, for his birthday also represents the Sunday law, and all nations began to drink the wine of Babylon on September 11, 2001, well before the soon coming Sunday law.
Mu munsi mukuru wo kwizihiza ivuka rya Herode, Eliya, ahagarariwe na Yohana Umubatiza, ari muri gereza y’Abaroma ategereje kurokorwa cyangwa urupfu. Nta bahanuzi ba Bayali bahari kugira ngo bakore imbyino y’ubushukanyi, keretse Salome, umukobwa wa Yezebeli. Herode n’incuti ze z’ibwami basinze divayi ya Babuloni, kuko umunsi we w’amavuko na wo ugereranya itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru, kandi amahanga yose yatangiye kunywa divayi ya Babuloni ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001, mbere cyane y’iryo tegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba.
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. Revelation 18:1–3.
Hanyuma y’ibyo mbona undi mumalayika amanuka ava mu ijuru, afite ubutware bukomeye; isi imurikirwa n’ubwiza bwe. Arangurura ijwi rikomeye cyane, aravuga ati: Babuloni ikomeye iraguye, iraguye, ihindutse ubuturo bw’abadayimoni n’indiri ya buri mwuka wanduye, n’akazu ka buri nyoni ihumanye kandi yangwa. Kuko amahanga yose yanyoye kuri divayi y’uburakari bw’ubusambanyi bwayo, kandi abami bo mu isi basambanye na yo, n’abacuruzi bo mu isi bakize cyane kubera ubwinshi bw’ibinezeza byayo. Ibyahishuwe 18:1–3.
These three verses were fulfilled when the great buildings of New York, the twin towers were thrown down by a touch of God.
Iyi mirongo itatu yasohoye ubwo inyubako zikomeye za New York, ari zo minara y’impanga, zasenywaga n’igikorwa cy’Imana.
“Now comes the word that I have declared that New York is to be swept away by a tidal wave? This I have never said. I have said, as I looked at the great buildings going up there, story after story, ‘What terrible scenes will take place when the Lord shall arise to shake terribly the earth! Then the words of Revelation 18:1–3 will be fulfilled.’ The whole of the eighteenth chapter of Revelation is a warning of what is coming on the earth. But I have no light in particular in regard to what is coming on New York, only that I know that one day the great buildings there will be thrown down by the turning and overturning of God’s power. From the light given me, I know that destruction is in the world. One word from the Lord, one touch of his mighty power, and these massive structures will fall. Scenes will take place the fearfulness of which we cannot imagine.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.
“Mbese ubu haza ijambo rivuga ko natangaje yuko New York igomba gukurwaho n’umuhengeri ukomeye? Ibyo sinigeze mbivuga. Icyo navuze ni uko, ubwo narebaga inyubako nini zirimo kuzamuka yo, igorofa ku rindi, navuze nti: ‘Mbega ibintu biteye ubwoba bizabaho igihe Uwiteka azahaguruka kugira ngo anyeganyeze isi bikomeye! Ni bwo amagambo yo mu Ibyahishuwe 18:1–3 azasohora.’ Igice cya cumi n’umunani cyose cy’Ibyahishuwe ni umuburo w’ibigiye kuza ku isi. Ariko nta mucyo wihariye mfite ku byerekeye ibigiye kuza kuri New York, keretse ko nzi yuko umunsi umwe izo nyubako nini zaho zizahirikwa n’ihindukizwa n’ihirikizwa ry’imbaraga z’Imana. Uhereye ku mucyo nahawe, nzi yuko kurimbuka kuri mu isi. Ijambo rimwe rivuye ku Mwami, gukozwaho kumwe kw’imbaraga ze zikomeye, kandi izo nyubako z’igitangaza zizagwa. Hazabaho ibintu biteye ubwoba ku buryo tudashobora kubitekereza.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.
The soon coming Sunday law is represented by the second voice of Revelation chapter eighteen, and it represents Ahab’s Mount Carmel, and Herod’s birthday party. Herodias, who is also Jezebel, is not present at Herod’s drunken party, just as Jezebel was absent from Mount Carmel. Until the Sunday law, she has been forgotten during the seventy symbolic years of the reign of the earth beast, the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. When Jezebel received her deadly wound in 1798 and 1799, the sixth kingdom (the United States) began its term as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. When the sixth kingdom ends, she then returns and begins to sing her songs and commits fornication with all the nations on earth.
Itegeko ry’icyumweru rizaza vuba rigereranywa n’ijwi rya kabiri ryo mu Byahishuwe igice cya cumi n’umunani, kandi rihagarariye Karumeli ya Ahabu, ndetse n’umunsi mukuru w’isabukuru ya Herode. Herodiya, ari na we Yezebeli, ntaba ahari muri uwo munsi mukuru wa Herode wo gusinda, nk’uko na Yezebeli atari ahari ku Musozi wa Karumeli. Kugeza ku itegeko ry’icyumweru, yari yaribagiranye muri ya myaka mirongo irindwi y’ikigereranyo y’ubutegetsi bw’inyamaswa yo mu isi, ubwami bwa gatandatu bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya. Igihe Yezebeli yakiraga uruguma rwe rwica mu 1798 no mu 1799, ubwami bwa gatandatu (Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika) bwatangiye igihe cyabwo nk’ubwami bwa gatandatu bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya. Iyo ubwami bwa gatandatu burangiye, ni bwo agaruka maze agatangira kuririmba indirimbo ze no gusambana n’amahanga yose yo mu isi.
Her songs of fornication and wine was prophetically initiated on September 11, 2001, but that was simply the period of preparation, as had been represented by the thirty years from 508, unto 538, the first time she took the throne. Up until the Sunday law, when the sixth kingdom is slain by the hands of Elijah, she has been hidden in Samaria. At that point John the Baptist is being held in her prison, awaiting either deliverance or death.
Indirimbo ze z’ubusambanyi na divayi zatangijwe mu buryo bw’ubuhanuzi ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001, ariko ibyo byari gusa igihe cyo kwitegura, nk’uko byari byaragaragajwe n’imyaka mirongo itatu yo kuva mu 508 kugeza mu 538, ku nshuro ya mbere yafashe intebe y’ubwami. Kugeza ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru, igihe ubwami bwa gatandatu bwicwa n’amaboko ya Eliya, yari yarahishwe muri Samariya. Icyo gihe Yohana Umubatiza aba afungiye muri gereza ye, ategereje gucungurwa cyangwa urupfu.
Herod and his noble friends were drunk with the wine of Babylon, when Salome, the daughter of Herodias (Jezebel), performed her highly seductive dance, and Herod manifests his lustful and incestual desires. He is fully captivated by his step-daughters’ sexual overtures, and offers her up to half his kingdom.
Herodi n’incuti ze b’inshuti ze zari zarasinze vino ya Babuloni, ubwo Salome, umukobwa wa Herodiya (Yezebeli), yakoraga umubyino we wo kureshya cyane, maze Herodi agaragaza ibyifuzo bye by’irari n’iby’ubusambanyi bwo mu muryango. Yari yarafashwe rwose n’ibimenyetso by’umubiri by’uwo mukobwa w’umugore we, amwizeza kumuha kugeza ku gice cya kabiri cy’ubwami bwe.
And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee; And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee. And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom. And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist. And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath’s sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her. And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison, And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother. Mark 6:21–28.
Nuko umunsi uboneye usohoye, Herode ku munsi wo kwizihiza ivuka rye akorera abatware be, n’abakuru b’ingabo, n’abanyacyubahiro bo muri Galilaya umunsi mukuru; maze umukobwa wa Herodiya uwo yinjiye arabyina, ashimisha Herode n’abari basangiye na we, umwami abwira uwo mukobwa ati: Nsaba icyo ushaka cyose, ndagiguha. Aramurahirira ati: Icyo uzansaba cyose nzakiguha, kugeza no ku gice cya kabiri cy’ubwami bwanjye. Arasohoka abwira nyina ati: Ndasaba iki? Aramusubiza ati: Umutwe wa Yohana Umubatiza. Aherako ahita yinjirana umuvuduko kwa mwami, arasaba ati: Ndashaka ko umpa nonaha ku ibahani umutwe wa Yohana Umubatiza. Umwami arababara cyane; nyamara ku bw’indahiro ye no ku bw’abari basangiye na we, ntiyashaka kumwima. Uwo mwanya umwami atuma umwicanyi, ategeka ko bazana umutwe we; aragenda amuca umutwe ari muri gereza, azana umutwe we ku ibahani, awuha uwo mukobwa; na we awuha nyina. Mariko 6:21–28.
The first voice of Revelation eighteen sounded on September 11, 2001, and the second voice sounds at the soon coming Sunday law. In the history represented in John chapter six, the first voice of 2001 was the voice of Christ informing His disciples that they must eat His flesh and drink His blood, for He was the true Bread of Heaven. That period began in Galilee and ended with a purging of His disciples who turned away from Him in John chapter SIX, verse SIXTY-SIX. That history began at Galilee with a dietary test, and ended at the enforcement of the mark of the beast, as typified by the number of the pope’s name, which is SIX, SIX, SIX. Galilee means “turning point,” and September 11, 2001 was a prophetic “turning point” (Galilee), and Herod’s birthday was with the leadership of Galilee. The beginning voice of Revelation chapter eighteen, and the ending voice of Revelation eighteen, are both represented by Galilee, which is a turning point.
Ijwi rya mbere ryo mu Byahishuwe cumi n’umunani ryumvikanye ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001, kandi ijwi rya kabiri rizumvikana ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba. Mu mateka agaragazwa muri Yohana igice cya gatandatu, ijwi rya mbere ryo mu 2001 ryari ijwi rya Kristo abwira abigishwa Be ko bagomba kurya umubiri We no kunywa amaraso Ye, kuko Yari Umugati w’ukuri wavuye mu Ijuru. Icyo gihe cyatangiriye i Galilaya, kirangira no kwezwa kw’abigishwa Be bamuvuyeho muri Yohana igice cya GATANDATU, umurongo wa MIRONGO ITANDATU N’ITANDATU. Ayo mateka yatangiriye i Galilaya n’ikigeragezo cyerekeye ibyokurya, arangira ku ishyirwa mu bikorwa ry’ikimenyetso cy’inyamaswa, nk’uko bishushanywa n’umubare w’izina rya papa, ari wo GATANDATU, GATANDATU, GATANDATU. Galilaya bisobanura “ahindurirwa inzira,” kandi ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001 hari “ihindurirwa ry’inzira” ry’ubuhanuzi (Galilaya), kandi umunsi mukuru w’amavuko wa Herode wari kumwe n’ubuyobozi bwa Galilaya. Ijwi ritangira ryo mu Byahishuwe igice cya cumi n’umunani, n’ijwi rirangiza ryo mu Byahishuwe cumi n’umunani, byombi bishushanywa na Galilaya, ari ho hantu ho guhindurirwa inzira.
“There are lessons to be learned from the history of the past; and attention is called to these, that all may understand that God works on the same lines now that He ever has done. His hand is seen in His work and among the nations now, just the same as it has been ever since the gospel was first proclaimed to Adam in Eden.
“Mu mateka ya kera harimo amasomo akwiriye kwigirwaho; kandi aya aributswa kugira ngo bose bumve yuko Imana ikora muri gahunda imwe n’iyo yahoranye iteka. Ukuboko kwayo kugaragarira mu murimo wayo no mu mahanga ubu, nk’uko kwahoraga kugaragara kuva ubwo ubutumwa bwiza bwabanje kubwirizwa Adamu muri Edeni.
“There are periods which are turning points in the history of nations and of the church. In the providence of God, when these different crises arrive, the light for that time is given. If it is received, there is spiritual progress; if it is rejected, spiritual declension and shipwreck follow. The Lord in His word has opened up the aggressive work of the gospel as it has been carried on in the past, and will be in the future, even to the closing conflict, when Satanic agencies will make their last wonderful movement.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.
Hari ibihe bibera impinduka zikomeye mu mateka y’amahanga no mu mateka y’itorero. Mu bugenzuzi bw’Imana, iyo ibyo bihe bitandukanye by’amage bigeze, umucyo ugenewe icyo gihe uratangwa. Iyo wakiriwe, habaho gutera imbere mu by’umwuka; ariko iyo wananzwe, hakurikiraho gusubira inyuma mu by’umwuka no kumeneka kw’ubwato. Uwiteka, mu ijambo Rye, yahishuye umurimo w’ivugabutumwa ukorwa ushize amanga nk’uko wakomeje gukorwa mu bihe byahise, kandi uko uzakorwa mu gihe kizaza, ndetse ukageza ku rugamba rwa nyuma, ubwo ibikoresha bya Satani bizakora igikorwa cyabyo cya nyuma gitangaje.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.
Galilee at 2001, and Galilee at the soon coming Sunday law, identify when the light of the latter rain is poured out. In 2001 it was a measured outpouring, but at the second voice it is poured out without measure, as represented by the tremendous outpouring after Elijah slew the prophets of Baal, which occurred at Herod’s birthday party. Herod’s birthday identifies the birth of the seventh kingdom of Bible prophecy, which immediately follows the death of the preceding kingdom. The United States began to reign in 1798, at the death of the fifth kingdom, and at the death of the prophets of Baal, the seventh kingdom’s birthday has arrived. That seventh kingdom is represented by Ahab’s tenfold kingdom of the north, and by Herod, a representative of the tenfold northern kingdom of pagan Rome.
Galilaya yo mu mwaka wa 2001, na Galilaya yo ku itegeko rya vuba ry’Umunsi w’Icyumweru, bigaragaza igihe umucyo w’imvura y’itumba usukwa. Mu mwaka wa 2001 habayeho isukwa riringaniye, ariko ku ijwi rya kabiri risukwa nta rugero, nk’uko bigereranywa n’isukwa rikomeye cyane ryakurikiyeho nyuma y’uko Eliya yishe abahanuzi ba Baali, ryabereye mu birori by’isabukuru y’amavuko ya Herode. Isabukuru y’amavuko ya Herode igaragaza ivuka ry’ubwami bwa karindwi bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya, buhita bukurikira urupfu rw’ubwami bwabubanjirije. Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika zatangiye gutegeka mu mwaka wa 1798, ku rupfu rw’ubwami bwa gatanu, kandi ku rupfu rw’abahanuzi ba Baali, isabukuru y’amavuko y’ubwami bwa karindwi iba igeze. Ubwo bwami bwa karindwi bugereranywa n’ubwami bwo mu majyaruguru bwa Ahabu bufite ibice icumi, kandi na Herode abugereranya, kuko ari uhagarariye ubwami bwo mu majyaruguru bufite ibice icumi bwa Roma ya gipagani.
And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Revelation 17:16–18.
Kandi amahembe cumi wabonye ku nyamaswa, ayo ni yo azanga maraya, amuhindure umusaka kandi yambaye ubusa, kandi azarya umubiri we, anamucanishe umuriro. Kuko Imana yabishyize mu mitima yabo kugira ngo bakore ibyo ishaka, bemeranye, kandi baha ubwami bwabo iyo nyamaswa, kugeza ubwo amagambo y’Imana azasohorera. Nuko wa mugore wabonye ni wo murwa ukomeye utegeka abami bo mu isi. Ibyahishuwe 17:16–18.
Herod agrees to fulfill the oath he made to Salome, and give her the head of John, and his oath was represented as up to half his kingdom. The ten kings of the United Nations, in spite of hating the whore, agree to give their seventh kingdom unto the eighth head, that is of the seven previous heads. They agree to a kingdom that is premised upon the combination of the worldwide State, being combined with her worldwide Church. But the marriage is a Latin marriage, not an English marriage, for their marriage is represented by the “woman” reigning “over the kings.” In a Latin marriage the family retains the woman’s surname, not the mans’, and the name of this twofold marriage is an important element of the prophetic narrative.
Herodi yemera gusohoza indahiro yagiriye Salome, no kumuha umutwe wa Yohana, kandi indahiro ye yerekanwe ko igera no ku gice cya kabiri cy’ubwami bwe. Abami icumi bo mu Muryango w’Abibumbye, nubwo banga maraya, bemera guha ubwami bwabo bwa karindwi ya mutwe wa munani, ukomoka kuri ya mitwe irindwi yabanje. Bemera ubwami bushingiye ku ihuzwa rya Leta y’isi yose, ihujwe n’Itorero ryayo ry’isi yose. Ariko ubwo bukwe ni ubukwe bwa Kilatini, si ubukwe bw’Icyongereza, kuko ubukwe bwabo bwerekanwa n’uko “umugore” ategeka “abami.” Mu bukwe bwa Kilatini, umuryango ugumana izina ry’umugore, si iry’umugabo; kandi izina ry’ubu bukwe bw’impande ebyiri ni ingingo y’ingenzi mu nkuru y’ubuhanuzi.
“Kings and rulers and governors have placed upon themselves the brand of antichrist, and are represented as the dragon who goes to make war with the saints—with those who keep the commandments of God and who have the faith of Jesus.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.
“Abami n’abategetsi n’abagenga ibihugu bishyizeho ubwabo ikimenyetso cya antikristo, kandi bagaragazwa nk’icyo kiyoka kijya kurwanya intore z’Imana—abubahiriza amategeko y’Imana kandi bafite kwizera kwa Yesu.” Testimonies to Ministers, 38.

The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. . .. And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem: When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning. Isaiah 2:1–3, 4:1–4.
Ijambo Yesaya mwene Amozi yeretswe ku byerekeye u Buyuda na Yerusalemu. Kandi bizaba mu minsi y’imperuka ko umusozi w’inzu y’Uwiteka uzashyingwa ku mutwe w’imisozi, kandi uzashyirwa hejuru y’udusozi; kandi amahanga yose azawugana. Kandi abantu benshi bazagenda bavuga bati: Nimuze, tuzamuke tujye ku musozi w’Uwiteka, ku nzu y’Imana ya Yakobo; kandi izatwigisha inzira zayo, natwe tuzagenda mu migenzereze yayo; kuko i Siyoni ari ho amategeko azaturuka, n’ijambo ry’Uwiteka rikazava i Yerusalemu.... Uwo munsi abagore barindwi bazafata umugabo umwe bavuga bati: Tuzirwarira ibyokurya byacu, twiyambike n’imyambaro yacu ubwacu; icyakora twemerere twitirirwe izina ryawe, ukureho igisuzuguriro cyacu. Uwo munsi ishami ry’Uwiteka rizaba ryiza kandi rifite ikuzo, n’imbuto zo mu gihugu zizaba indashyikirwa kandi nziza ku barokotse bo muri Isirayeli. Kandi bizaba yuko usigaye i Siyoni, n’usigajwe i Yerusalemu, azitwa uwera, ari we wese wanditswe mu bazima i Yerusalemu: igihe Uwiteka azaba amaze gukuraho umwanda w’abakobwa ba Siyoni, kandi amaze kweza amaraso ya Yerusalemu ayakuyemo rwagati haho ku mwuka w’urubanza no ku mwuka wo gutwika. Yesaya 2:1–3, 4:1–4.
