We have been identifying the war in heaven described in chapter twelve of the book of Revelation. Employing the principle of Christ’s character that is Alpha and Omega, we have approached the war in heaven in chapter twelve as a typification of the war in heaven that occurs in the “last days.” The expression “the last days” in the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy means the last days of the investigative judgment.

Twagiye tumenya intambara yo mu ijuru isobanurwa mu gice cya cumi na kabiri cy’igitabo cy’Ibyahishuwe. Dukoresheje ihame ry’imico ya Kristo ari yo Alfa na Omega, twegereye intambara yo mu ijuru yo mu gice cya cumi na kabiri nk’ikigereranyo cy’intambara yo mu ijuru ibaho mu “minsi y’imperuka.” Imvugo “iminsi y’imperuka” muri Bibiliya no mu Mwuka w’Ubuhanuzi isobanura iminsi y’imperuka y’urubanza rw’iperereza.

We have identified the three satanic powers of chapter twelve and thirteen, not as powers that find their fulfillment in past history, but as the modern fulfillment of those powers that lead the world to Armageddon. The dragon of chapter twelve is the United Nations, the Catholic church who is to be resurrected at the Sunday law in the United States, is the sea beast of chapter thirteen, and the earth beast with two horns is the United States.

Twerekanye ubushobozi butatu bwa Satani buvugwa mu gice cya cumi na kabiri n’icya cumi na gatatu, tutabufata nk’ubushobozi bwasohoreye mu mateka ya kera, ahubwo nk’isohozwa rya none ry’ubwo bushobozi buyobora isi kuri Arumagedoni. Ikiyoka kivugwa mu gice cya cumi na kabiri ni Umuryango w’Abibumbye, Itorero Gatolika rizazurwa ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika ni cyo gikoko cyazamutse mu nyanja kivugwa mu gice cya cumi na gatatu, kandi cya gikoko cyo mu isi gifite amahembe abiri ni Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika.

We have been identifying that the warfare customarily understood in chapter twelve as exclusively a representation of Lucifer’s rebellion in heaven, actually illustrates a war that is about to happen in the earthly heavens, beginning at the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States. We have taken time to identify that there is a testing process illustrated from Revelation thirteen, verses eleven through seventeen, that involves recognizing the formation of the image of the beast. The image of the beast represents the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. When the church is in control, it then uses the state to enforce its doctrines and persecute those it defines as heretics. The worldwide testing process associated with the formation of the image of the beast, is first accomplished within the United States. The prophetic characteristics of each of the two testing processes, is essentially the same in either the United States or the world.

Twagiye tugaragaza ko intambara isanzwe isobanurwa mu gice cya cumi na kabiri nk’ishushanyo gusa cy’ubwigomeke bwa Lusiferi mu ijuru, mu by’ukuri isobanura intambara igiye kuba mu majuru yo ku isi, itangiriye ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye vuba gushyirwaho muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika. Twafashe igihe cyo kugaragaza ko hariho inzira yo kugeragezwa ishushanyijwe muri Ibyahishuwe igice cya cumi na gatatu, umurongo wa cumi na umwe kugeza ku wa cumi na karindwi, ikubiyemo kumenya ishingwa ry’igishushanyo cy’inyamaswa. Igishushanyo cy’inyamaswa kigereranya uguhuza kw’itorero na leta, aho itorero ari ryo rigenzura iyo sano. Iyo itorero riri ku butegetsi bw’iyo sano, noneho rikoresha leta kugira ngo rishyireho inyigisho zaryo ku ngufu kandi ritoteze abo risobanura ko ari abahakanyi. Inzira yo kugeragezwa yo ku isi yose ifitanye isano n’ishingwa ry’igishushanyo cy’inyamaswa, ibanza kurangirizwa muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika. Ibiranga bya gihanuzi bya buri imwe muri izo nzira zombi zo kugeragezwa, mu by’ukuri ni bimwe, haba muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika cyangwa mu isi.

We pointed to the two identical periods of twelve hundred and sixty days that preceded and followed the cross as a second witness to the identification of two consecutive image of the beast testing processes at the end of the world. The formation of the image of the beast in the United States between September 11, 2001, and the soon-coming Sunday law, precedes the formation of the image of the beast in the United Nations after the soon-coming Sunday law. The twelve hundred and sixty days of Christ’s ministry from His baptism to the cross preceded the twelve hundred and sixty days of His disciple’s ministry that followed the cross. The two lines, both containing two periods that represent identical tests in each period, represent the theme of either the image of Christ or the image of the antichrist.

Twagaragaje ibihe bibiri bingana by’iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu byabanjirije kandi bigakurikirana umusaraba nk’umuhamya wa kabiri wo kugaragaza inzira ebyiri zikurikirana z’ibigeragezo byo kwishyirwaho kw’ishusho y’inyamaswa ku iherezo ry’isi. Kuremwa kw’ishusho y’inyamaswa muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika hagati ya 11 Nzeri 2001 n’itegeko ryo ku cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba, kubanziriza kuremwa kw’ishusho y’inyamaswa mu Muryango w’Abibumbye nyuma y’iryo tegeko ryo ku cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba. Iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu y’umurimo wa Kristo kuva ku mubatizo We kugeza ku musaraba yabanje iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu y’umurimo w’abigishwa Be yakurikiye umusaraba. Iyo mirongo yombi, buri umwe urimo ibihe bibiri bigereranya ibigeragezo bisa muri buri gihe, ihagarariye insanganyamatsiko y’ishusho ya Kristo cyangwa ishusho y’umwanzi wa Kristo.

The twelve hundred and sixty days of Christ’s ministry that ended at the cross, began when the Holy Spirit descended at His baptism, aligning with the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen descending on September 11, 2001.

Iminsi igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu y’umurimo wa Kristo yarangiriye ku musaraba, yatangiye ubwo Mwuka Wera yamumanukiragaho mu mubatizo We, bihura n’umumarayika ukomeye wo mu Byahishuwe 18 wamanutse ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001.

“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 hageze ijambo navuze ko New York igomba gukurwaho n’umuraba ukomeye wo mu nyanja? Ibyo sinigeze mbivuga. Icyo navuze ni uko, igihe narebaga inyubako ndende cyane zubakwaga aho, igorofa ku yindi, navuze nti: ‘Mbega amashusho ateye ubwoba azahabera igihe Uwiteka azahaguruka kugira ngo anyeganyeze isi bikomeye cyane! 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 zo muri uwo mujyi zizarimburwa no guhinduranya no guhirika k’ububasha bw’Imana. Uhereye ku mucyo nahawe, nzi ko kurimbuka kuri mu isi. Ijambo rimwe riturutse ku Mwami, gukozwa rimwe gusa k’ububasha bwe bukomeye, maze izo nyubako z’ibihangange zigahita zigwa. Hazabaho amashusho ateye ubwoba ku buryo tudashobora kuyatekereza.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.

The period of twelve hundred and sixty days in the history of Christ, that ended at the cross, represents the period of time that concludes at the soon-coming Sunday law. The cross typifies the Sunday law. Both are symbols of judgment. Both represent the coming of national ruin for the nation where the event of judgment takes place. Both took place in the glorious land of Judah. In Christ’s history it was the literal glorious land of Judah, and at the Sunday law it is the spiritual glorious land of Judah, the United States of America. At the cross, Christ was lifted up for the purpose of drawing all men to Himself.

Igihe cy’iminsi igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu mu mateka ya Kristo, cyarangiye ku musaraba, kigereranya igihe gisozwa n’itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba. Umusaraba ushushanya itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru. Byombi ni ibimenyetso by’urubanza. Byombi bigaragaza ukuza kw’irimbuka ry’ishyanga ku gihugu aho igikorwa cy’urubanza kibera. Byombi byabereye mu gihugu cy’ubwiza cy’u Buyuda. Mu mateka ya Kristo cyari igihugu cy’ubwiza nyakuri cy’u Buyuda, naho ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru ni igihugu cy’ubwiza cy’umwuka cy’u Buyuda, ari cyo Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika. Ku musaraba, Kristo yazamuwe hejuru kugira ngo akururire abantu bose kuri We.

And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This he said, signifying what death he should die. John 12:32, 33.

Nanjye, nimanurwa hejuru nkava mu isi, nzireherezaho abantu bose. Ibyo yabivuze agaragaza urupfu yari agiye gupfa urwo ari rwo. Yohana 12:32, 33.

At the Sunday law the ensign of the one hundred and forty-four thousand are lifted up in order to draw all men to Christ.

Mu itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru, ibendera ry’abihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bine rirazamurwa kugira ngo rikururire abantu bose kuri Kristo.

And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly. Isaiah 5:26.

Kandi azazamurira amahanga ibendera ari kure, kandi akazayahamagara avugije ifirimbi ari ku mpera y’isi; kandi dore, azaza yihuta cyane. Yesaya 5:26.

The period of twelve hundred and sixty days in the history of Christ that follows the cross, ends with Michael standing up at the stoning of Stephen.

Igihe cy’iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu mu mateka ya Kristo gikurikira umusaraba, kirangirana na Mikayeli ahaguruka mu gihe Sitefano yaterwaga amabuye.

But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. Acts 7:55, 56.

Ariko we, yuzuye Umwuka Wera, yubuye amaso mu ijuru ahanga, abona ubwiza bw’Imana, na Yesu ahagaze iburyo bw’Imana. Maze aravuga ati: Dore, mbona ijuru rikingutse, n’Umwana w’umuntu ahagaze iburyo bw’Imana. Ibyakozwe n’Intumwa 7:55, 56.

The symbolic forty-two months of the last image of the beast testing time, ends with Michael standing up and marks the close of human probation.

Amezi mirongo ine n’ibiri y’ikigereranyo y’igihe cyo kugeragezwa cy’ishusho ya nyuma y’inyamaswa arangira igihe Mikayeli ahagurutse, kandi bikaranga iherezo ry’igihe cy’igeragezwa cy’abantu.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. Daniel 12:1.

Muri icyo gihe Mikayeli azahaguruka, wa mutware mukuru uhagararira abana b’ubwoko bwawe; kandi hazabaho igihe cy’amakuba, atigeze abaho kuva aho amahanga yabereyeho kugeza kuri icyo gihe; kandi muri icyo gihe ubwoko bwawe buzacungurwa, umuntu wese uzasangwa yanditswe mu gitabo. Daniyeli 12:1.

The complete history of both image to the beast testing processes, contains other internal prophetic witnesses. Correctly understood, and I acknowledge few persons do understand this truth; but the first image of the beast testing process that is fulfilled in the United States, began on September 11, 2001, when the third woe arrived into history. The Sunday law where that first image of the beast testing process ends, marks the arrival of the third woe in judgment against the United States for the passage of the Sunday law. At that time the arrival of the third woe fulfills the angering of the nations, in fulfillment of Revelation eleven, and verse eighteen and the first mention of Islam’s role to anger the nations in Bible prophecy.

Amateka yuzuye y’ibigeragezo byombi by’ishusho y’inyamaswa arimo ubuhamya bw’imbere mu buhanuzi. Iyo byumviswe neza nk’uko bikwiriye, kandi nemera ko ari bake cyane basobanukiwe uku kuri; ariko igikorwa cya mbere cy’ikigeragezo cy’ishusho y’inyamaswa cyasohoreye muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika, cyatangiye ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001, igihe ishyano rya gatatu ryageraga mu mateka. Itegeko ryo ku cyumweru, aho icyo gikorwa cya mbere cy’ikigeragezo cy’ishusho y’inyamaswa kirangirira, ni ryo riranga ukuza kw’ishyano rya gatatu mu rubanza ruciriwe Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika kubera itorwa ry’itegeko ryo ku cyumweru. Muri icyo gihe ukuza kw’ishyano rya gatatu gusohora ugushavuzwa kw’amahanga, mu isohozwa ry’Ibyahishuwe igice cya cumi na kimwe, umurongo wa cumi n’umunani, kandi ni na bwo bwa mbere havugwa uruhare rwa Isilamu mu gushavuriza amahanga mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya.

And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. Genesis 16:12.

Kandi azaba umuntu w’ishyamba; ukuboko kwe kuzarwanya buri muntu wese, kandi ukuboko kwa buri muntu wese kuzamurwanya; kandi azatura imbere ya bene se bose. Itangiriro 16:12.

The soon coming Sunday law is the ending of the first testing period, and also the beginning of the last testing period. The last testing period ends when human probation closes, and at that point in time the four winds, which are a symbol of the third woe, are fully released.

Itegeko ry’umunsi w’icyumweru rigiye kuza vuba ni ryo rirangiza igihe cya mbere cy’igeragezwa, kandi ni na ryo ritangiza igihe cya nyuma cy’igeragezwa. Igihe cya nyuma cy’igeragezwa kirangira igihe igeragezwa ry’abantu rifungwa, kandi muri uwo mwanya umuyaga ine, ari zo kimenyetso cy’ishyano rya gatatu, irekurwa ryuzuye.

“When the Saviour saw in the Jewish people a nation divorced from God, He saw also a professed Christian Church united to the world and the papacy. And as He stood upon Olivet, weeping over Jerusalem till the sun sank behind the western hills, so He is weeping over and pleading with sinners in these last moments of time. Soon He will say to the angels who are holding the four winds, ‘Let the plagues loose; let darkness, destruction, and death come upon the transgressors of my law.’ Will He be obliged to say to those who have had great light and knowledge, as He said to the Jews, ‘If thou hadst known, even thou at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes’?” Review and Herald, October 8, 1901.

“Igihe Umukiza yabonaga mu Bayahudi ishyanga ryatandukanye n’Imana, yabonagamo kandi Itorero rya Gikristo ryiyemerera ko ari irya Kristo ryunze ubumwe n’isi n’ubupapa. Kandi nk’uko yahagaze ku Musozi wa Elayono, aririra Yerusalemu kugeza ubwo izuba ryarengaga inyuma y’imisozi y’iburengerazuba, ni ko na none aririra abanyabyaha kandi akabingingira muri iyi minota ya nyuma y’igihe. Bidatinze azabwira abamarayika bafashe imyuka ine ati, ‘Nimurekure ibyago; umwijima, kurimbuka, n’urupfu bimanukire ku banyuranya n’amategeko yanjye.’ Mbese azasabwa kubwira abahawe umucyo mwinshi n’ubumenyi bwinshi, nk’uko yabwiye Abayahudi ati, ‘Iyo uba waramenye, ndetse nawe nibura kuri uyu munsi wawe, ibyari iby’amahoro yawe! Ariko none bihishwe amaso yawe’?” Review and Herald, 8 Ukwakira 1901.

In the history of Christ, the first waymark of the first period of twelve hundred and sixty days began at His baptism, which was a symbol of His death and resurrection. That period ended at His death and resurrection, which simultaneously began the last period of twelve hundred and sixty days. That period ended with the death and promised resurrection of Stephen.

Mu mateka ya Kristo, ikimenyetso cya mbere cy’inzira cyo mu gihe cya mbere cy’iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu cyatangiriye ku mubatizo We, wari ikimenyetso cy’urupfu Rwe n’izuka Rye. Icyo gihe cyarangiye ku rupfu Rwe n’izuka Rye, byatangiye icyarimwe igihe cya nyuma cy’iminsi igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu. Icyo gihe cyarangiye ku rupfu rwa Sitefano n’izuka rye ryasezeranyijwe.

The line of history that represents the image of Christ, has the identical prophetic structure as the line of history that represents the image of antichrist.

Umurongo w’amateka ushushanya ishusho ya Kristo, ufite imiterere y’ubuhanuzi imwe rwose n’umurongo w’amateka ushushanya ishusho ya antikristo.

In the Scriptures, Christ is the true king of the north, and it has always been Satan’s purpose to overthrow and counterfeit Christ’s royal authority.

Mu Byanditswe Byera, Kristo ni we mwami nyakuri w’ikasikazi, kandi buri gihe intego ya Satani yabaye iyo guhirika no kwigana ububasha bwa cyami bwa Kristo.

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.

Mbega uguye uvuye mu ijuru, yewe Lusiferi, mwana w’umuseke! Mbega ugaciwe ugakubitwa hasi ku butaka, wowe wacogoje amahanga! Kuko wavuze mu mutima wawe uti: Nzazamuka njye mu ijuru, nsubirize intebe yanjye y’ubwami hejuru y’inyenyeri z’Imana; kandi nzicara ku musozi w’iteraniro, mu mpande z’iyamajyaruguru; nzazamuka ndenge uburebure bw’ibicu; nzaba nk’Isumbabyose. Yesaya 14:12–14.

The “sides of the north” is Jerusalem, the city of the great king, where His sanctuary is.

“Impera z’amajyaruguru” ni Yerusalemu, umujyi w’Umwami ukomeye, aho ubuturo bwera bwe buri.

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. Psalms 48:1, 2.

Indirimbo na Zaburi by’abahungu ba Kora. Uwiteka arakomeye, kandi akwiriye gushimwa cyane mu murwa w’Imana yacu, ku musozi wayo wera. Umusozi Siyoni, uri mu ruhande rw’amajyaruguru, ni mwiza ku bw’aho uherereye, ni wo munezero w’isi yose, ni wo murwa w’Umwami ukomeye. Zaburi 48:1, 2.

In the Scriptures, the earthly “kings of the north,” are always represented as enemies of the people of God. They represent Satan’s effort to counterfeit the true king of the north, who is seated upon his throne in Jerusalem, which is the sides of the north. The line that represents two testing processes of the image of the beast, which runs parallel to the line of two testing processes of the image of Christ, has a third witness in the theme of Satan’s effort to be the king of the north who rules over God’s people.

Mu Byanditswe Byera, “abami bo mu majyaruguru” bo ku isi bahora bagereranywa nk’abanzi b’ubwoko bw’Imana. Bagereranya umuhati wa Satani wo kwigana Umwami nyakuri wo mu majyaruguru, wicaye ku ntebe ye y’ubwami i Yerusalemu, ari ho ku mpande z’amajyaruguru. Umurongo ugereranya inzira ebyiri zo kugeragezwa z’igishushanyo cy’inyamaswa, ugenda ugereranye n’umurongo w’inzira ebyiri zo kugeragezwa z’igishushanyo cya Kristo, ufite umuhamya wa gatatu mu nsanganyamatsiko y’umuhati wa Satani wo kuba umwami wo mu majyaruguru utegeka ubwoko bw’Imana.

In 723 BC, the king of the north, as represented by Assyria, took the northern ten kingdoms of Israel into slavery in fulfillment of Leviticus twenty-six’s “seven times.” Twelve hundred and sixty years later, in 538, the king of the north, represented at that point in history by literal pagan Rome, surrendered the throne to papal Rome, who then became the spiritual king of the north for another twelve hundred and sixty years. That second period of twelve hundred and sixty years ended in 1798, when the spiritual Roman king of the north received a deadly wound. When the papacy received its deadly wound in 1798, it typified the close of human probation, when the resurrected papacy finally and forever comes to his end with none to help.

Mu mwaka wa 723 mbere ya Kristo, umwami w’ikasikazi, nk’uko yashushanywaga na Ashuri, yajyanye mu bubata ubwami icumi bw’amajyaruguru bwa Isirayeli, mu gusohoza “ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu. Nyuma y’imyaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu, mu wa 538, umwami w’ikasikazi, wari uhagarariwe muri icyo gihe cy’amateka na Roma ya gipagani nyakuri, yeguriye intebe y’ubwami Roma ya gipapa, maze iyo ihinduka umwami w’ikasikazi wo mu buryo bw’umwuka mu kindi gihe cy’imyaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu. Icyo gihe cya kabiri cy’imyaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu cyarangiye mu wa 1798, igihe umwami w’ikasikazi w’Umuroma wo mu buryo bw’umwuka yakiraga igikomere cyica. Igihe ubupapa bwakiraga icyo gikomere cyica mu wa 1798, byari ikigereranyo cy’iherezo ry’igihe cy’igeragezwa cy’abantu, igihe ubupapa bwazutse amaherezo kandi iteka ryose buzagera ku iherezo ryabwo, nta wo kubutabara.

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. And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. Daniel 11:45, 12:1.

Kandi azashinga amahema y’ingoro ye hagati y’inyanja ku musozi wera w’icyubahiro; nyamara azagera ku iherezo rye, kandi nta uzamufasha. Kandi muri icyo gihe Mikayeli azahaguruka, wa mutware mukuru uhagararira abana b’ubwoko bwawe; kandi hazabaho igihe cy’umubabaro, kitigeze kubaho uhereye igihe amahanga yabereyeho kugeza muri icyo gihe nyine; kandi muri icyo gihe ubwoko bwawe buzacungurwa, umuntu wese uzasangwa yanditswe mu gitabo. Danieli 11:45, 12:1.

The “seven times,” of Leviticus twenty-six, which equates to twenty-five hundred and twenty years, identifies Assyria as the king of the north in 723 BC, and as the king of the north he conquered the “northern” kingdom of ancient Israel. From that point on, paganism, beginning with Assyria on to pagan Rome, trampled down God’s people, the “host” of Daniel 8:13, for twelve hundred and sixty years. In 538, the literal Roman king of the north, was prophetically conquered by the spiritual Roman king of the north, who trampled down God’s spiritual Israel for another twelve hundred and sixty years. The second period of trampling down ended with the spiritual Roman king of the north receiving his deadly wound in 1798.

“ibihe birindwi” byo mu Balewi makumyabiri na gatandatu, bingana n’imyaka ibihumbi bibiri na magana atanu na makumyabiri, bigaragaza Ashuri nk’umwami w’amajyaruguru mu mwaka wa 723 Mbere ya Kristo, kandi nk’umwami w’amajyaruguru yigaruriye ubwami bw’“amajyaruguru” bwa Isirayeli ya kera. Kuva icyo gihe, ubupagani, buhereye kuri Ashuri bugakomereza kuri Roma ya gipagani, bwakandagiye ubwoko bw’Imana, ari bwo “ngabo” bo muri Daniyeli 8:13, mu gihe cy’imyaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu. Mu mwaka wa 538, umwami w’amajyaruguru wa Roma nyakuri yatsinzwe mu buryo bw’ubuhanuzi n’umwami w’amajyaruguru wa Roma wo mu buryo bw’umwuka, wakandagiye Isirayeli y’Imana yo mu buryo bw’umwuka indi myaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu. Igihe cya kabiri cyo gukandagiranya cyarangiye ubwo umwami w’amajyaruguru wa Roma wo mu buryo bw’umwuka yahabwaga uruguma rwe rwica mu mwaka wa 1798.

In the line of the image of Christ, the center point is the cross, where death is identified. In the two periods of the test of the formation of the image of the beast, the center point is the death of the earth beast. In the line of the counterfeit king of the north, the center point is the death of the literal Roman king of the north.

Mu murongo w’ishusho ya Kristo, igice nyamukuru ni umusaraba, aho urupfu rumenyekanishirizwa. Mu bihe bibiri by’ikigeragezo cy’ikorwa ry’ishusho ya ya nyamaswa, igice nyamukuru ni urupfu rwa ya nyamaswa yo ku isi. Mu murongo w’umwami w’amajyaruguru w’impimbano, igice nyamukuru ni urupfu rw’umwami nyakuri w’Umuroma wo mu majyaruguru.

These lines represent three biblical witnesses, which each contains two sequential periods of time within one period of time. Each center point is marked by physical death, or death of a kingdom of Bible prophecy. With Christ the center point was His death and resurrection. With the image of the beast the center point is the death of the earth beast, the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy at the Sunday law. With the line of the counterfeit king of the north, the center point represents the death of the literal Roman king of the north, the fourth kingdom of Bible prophecy.

Iyi mirongo igereranya abagabo batatu bo mu Byanditswe, kandi buri umwe urimo ibihe bibiri bikurikirana biri mu gihe kimwe. Buri ngingo yo hagati irangwa n’urupfu rw’umubiri, cyangwa urupfu rw’ubwami bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya. Kuri Kristo, ingingo yo hagati yari urupfu rwe n’izuka rye. Ku ishusho y’inyamaswa, ingingo yo hagati ni urupfu rw’inyamaswa yo ku isi, ari bwo bwami bwa gatandatu bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya, ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru. Ku murongo w’umwami w’amajyaruguru w’impimbano, ingingo yo hagati igereranya urupfu rw’umwami nyakuri w’Abaroma w’amajyaruguru, ari bwo bwami bwa kane bwo mu buhanuzi bwa Bibiliya.

The two witnesses of Revelation eleven, according to Sister White in The Great Controversy, represent the Word of God. Christ is the Word of God. Those two witnesses were given power to prophesy for a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. They were then slain in the street, and did not arise for three days and a half. “A thousand two hundred and threescore days,” and “three days and a half” are both symbols of the wilderness period of twelve hundred and sixty years. They began with an empowerment where they prophesied clothed in sackcloth that ended in death. Then for the same prophetic period they were silent and clothed with death, until they were resurrected to present the warning of the third angel that announces the close of probation.

Abahamya babiri bo mu Ibyahishuwe igice cya cumi na kimwe, nk’uko Mushiki wacu White abivuga mu *Intambara Ikomeye*, bahagarariye Ijambo ry’Imana. Kristo ni we Jambo ry’Imana. Abo bahamya bombi bahawe imbaraga zo guhanura mu minsi igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu, bambaye ibigunira. Hanyuma bicirwa mu muhanda, kandi ntibongera kubyuka mu minsi itatu n’igice. “Iminsi igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu,” na “iminsi itatu n’igice” byombi ni ibimenyetso by’igihe cyo mu butayu cy’imyaka igihumbi na magana abiri na mirongo itandatu. Byatangiranye no guhabwa imbaraga aho bahanuraga bambaye ibigunira, bikarangirira mu rupfu. Hanyuma muri icyo gihe kimwe cy’ubuhanuzi baracecetse kandi bambikwa urupfu, kugeza ubwo bazutse kugira ngo batange umuburo wa marayika wa gatatu utangaza irangira ry’igihe cy’imbabazi.

These four prophetic lines equate to four witnesses. The prophetic structure of each of the four witnesses is identical. The periods of time of each of the eight periods, with the exception of September 11, 2001, to the soon-coming Sunday law, which is found in the four lines are prophetically identical. Every center point represents some type of death. Two of the lines address Christ, either as His image, or as the Word of God. The other two lines represent the antichrist, either as his desire to counterfeit Christ as king of the north, or to counterfeit Christ’s system of government.

Iyi mirongo ine y’ubuhanuzi ihwanye n’abahamya bane. Imiterere y’ubuhanuzi ya buri muhamya muri abo bahamya bane irasa rwose. Ibihe by’igihe bya buri kimwe mu bihe umunani, usibye igihe cyo kuva ku wa 11 Nzeri 2001 kugera ku itegeko rya vuba ry’umunsi w’icyumweru, kiboneka muri iyo mirongo ine, birasa mu buryo bw’ubuhanuzi. Buri ngingo yo hagati igereranya ubwoko runaka bw’urupfu. Ibiri muri iyo mirongo bivuga kuri Kristo, haba nk’ishusho Ye, cyangwa nk’Ijambo ry’Imana. Indi mirongo ibiri igereranya antikristo, haba nk’icyifuzo cye cyo kwigana Kristo nk’umwami w’amajyaruguru, cyangwa kwigana gahunda ya Kristo y’ubutegetsi.

We will try to bring together the one hundred and forty-four thousand with the battle in the first heaven in our next article. Dear reader, or listener: Whether you refuse to see these truths, or you do see them, it needs to be pointed out that the information that is being presented in all these articles, is identified and thereafter supported and sustained through the application of employing the beginning of a thing in order to identify the end of a thing. This is the prophetic signature of Alpha and Omega, and is a large element of the Revelation of Jesus Christ that is now being unsealed.

Mu nyandiko yacu itaha, tuzagerageza guhuriza hamwe ibihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bine n’intambara yo mu ijuru rya mbere. Musomyi cyangwa muteze amatwi nkunda: Waba wanze kubona uku kuri, cyangwa ukaba ukubona, birakenewe kugaragazwa ko amakuru atangwa muri izi nyandiko zose amenyekana, hanyuma akemezwa kandi agashyigikirwa, binyuze mu gukoresha intangiriro y’ikintu kugira ngo hamenyekane iherezo ryacyo. Iyi ni yo kimenyetso cy’ubuhanuzi cya Alufa na Omega, kandi ni kimwe mu bice bikomeye by’Ibyahishuwe bya Yesu Kristo biri gukurwaho ikimenyetso muri iki gihe.

The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law. Deuteronomy 29:29.

Ibihishwe ni iby’Uwiteka Imana yacu; ariko ibyahishuwe ni ibyacu n’iby’abana bacu iteka ryose, kugira ngo dukore amagambo yose y’iri tegeko. Gutegeka kwa Kabiri 29:29.
