And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:1–17.
Kisha ikaonekana ishara nyingine mbinguni; na tazama, joka kuu jekundu, lenye vichwa saba na pembe kumi, na taji saba juu ya vichwa vyake. Na mkia wake ukavuta theluthi ya nyota za mbinguni, ukazitupa duniani; na yule joka akasimama mbele ya yule mwanamke aliyekuwa karibu kuzaa, ili amle mtoto wake mara tu atakapozaliwa. Naye akamzaa mtoto wa kiume, atakayewatawala mataifa yote kwa fimbo ya chuma; na mtoto wake akanyakuliwa akapelekwa kwa Mungu, na kwenye kiti chake cha enzi. Naye mwanamke akakimbilia jangwani, ambako ana mahali palipotayarishwa na Mungu, ili alishwe huko siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Kulikuwa na vita mbinguni: Mikaeli na malaika zake wakapigana na yule joka; na yule joka na malaika zake wakapigana, wala hawakushinda; wala mahali pao hapakuonekana tena mbinguni. Na yule joka mkuu akatupwa nje, yule nyoka wa zamani, aitwaye Ibilisi na Shetani, adanganyaye ulimwengu wote; akatupwa chini duniani, nao malaika zake wakatupwa pamoja naye. Nikasikia sauti kuu ikisema mbinguni, Sasa wokovu na uweza na ufalme wa Mungu wetu, na mamlaka ya Kristo wake, vimekuja; kwa kuwa mshtaki wa ndugu zetu ametupwa chini, aliyekuwa akiwashtaki mbele za Mungu wetu mchana na usiku. Nao wakamshinda kwa damu ya Mwanakondoo, na kwa neno la ushuhuda wao; wala hawakuyapenda maisha yao hata kufa. Kwa hiyo shangilieni, enyi mbingu, na ninyi wakaao humo. Ole kwa wakazi wa nchi na wa bahari! kwa maana Ibilisi amewashukia, akiwa na hasira kuu, kwa sababu anajua ya kuwa ana muda mfupi tu. Na joka alipoona kwamba ametupwa duniani, akamwatesa yule mwanamke aliyemzaa yule mtoto wa kiume. Naye mwanamke akapewa mabawa mawili ya tai mkuu, ili aruke kwenda jangwani, mpaka mahali pake, ambako analishwa kwa muda, na nyakati, na nusu ya wakati, mbali na uso wa yule nyoka. Na yule nyoka akatoa katika kinywa chake maji kama mto nyuma ya yule mwanamke, ili amchukuliwe na mafuriko. Nayo nchi ikamsaidia yule mwanamke, nayo nchi ikafunua kinywa chake, ikameza yale mafuriko ambayo joka alitoa katika kinywa chake. Nalo joka likakasirika na yule mwanamke, likenda kupiga vita na wazao wake waliosalia, wale waishikao amri za Mungu, na walio na ushuhuda wa Yesu Kristo. Ufunuo 12:1-17.
The first battle in the great controversy between Christ and Satan, began in the third heaven with Lucifer’s rebellion, and that first battle typifies the last battle in the first heaven. There is more warfare, for at the end of the thousand-year millennium, Satan is loosed for a little season, and mounts an attack against Jerusalem, but that battle has no possibility of victory. The battle in the third heaven at the beginning, which represents the battle in the first heaven at the end, was carried out while probation was open.
Vita vya kwanza katika pambano kuu kati ya Kristo na Shetani vilianza katika mbingu ya tatu kwa uasi wa Lusifa, na vita hivyo vya kwanza vilikuwa kielelezo cha vita vya mwisho katika mbingu ya kwanza. Kuna mapigano zaidi, kwa maana mwishoni mwa milenia ya miaka elfu moja, Shetani atafunguliwa kwa muda mfupi, naye ataongoza shambulio dhidi ya Yerusalemu, lakini mapigano hayo hayana uwezekano wa ushindi. Vita katika mbingu ya tatu mwanzoni, vinavyowakilisha vita katika mbingu ya kwanza mwishoni, vilifanyika wakati mlango wa rehema ulikuwa wazi.
The “woman” that is pregnant with child, represents God’s church throughout history, and in the history of Christ she was about to give birth to the man child Jesus. In the last days, she gives birth to twins. Just before the Sunday law she births the one hundred and forty-four thousand, of Revelation seven, and at the Sunday law she begins the travail of birthing the great multitude of Revelation seven. Her twins are not identical, but they are twins, and the first born is Elijah and the younger son is Moses.
Yule "mwanamke" aliye mjamzito anawakilisha kanisa la Mungu katika historia yote, na katika historia ya Kristo alikuwa karibu kumzaa mtoto mwanamume Yesu. Katika siku za mwisho, anazaa mapacha. Kabla tu ya sheria ya Jumapili anazaa elfu mia arobaini na nne wa Ufunuo sura ya saba, na wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili anaanza uchungu wa kuzaa umati mkubwa wa Ufunuo sura ya saba. Mapacha wake si wanaofanana, lakini bado ni mapacha, na mzaliwa wa kwanza ni Eliya na mwana mdogo ni Musa.
In the beginning of spiritual Israel, the dragon of pagan Rome was waiting to devour the man child Jesus, and the dragon of modern Rome is now waiting to devour the man child of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. As pagan Rome persecuted the early Christian church, modern Rome will repeat the persecution during the Sunday law crisis. In the early Christian church, the woman fled into the wilderness for twelve hundred and sixty literal years, and the persecution of the Sunday law crisis is symbolized by the forty-two months of Revelation thirteen and verse five. In the wilderness God’s people have a place prepared for them where they are fed and nourished.
Hapo mwanzo wa Israeli wa kiroho, joka la Roma ya kipagani lilikuwa likisubiri kummeza mtoto mwanamume, Yesu, na joka la Roma ya kisasa sasa linasubiri kummeza mtoto mwanamume wa wale mia arobaini na nne elfu. Kama vile Roma ya kipagani ilivyotesa kanisa la awali la Kikristo, Roma ya kisasa itarudia mateso hayo wakati wa mzozo wa sheria ya Jumapili. Katika kanisa la awali la Kikristo, yule mwanamke alikimbilia jangwani kwa miaka elfu moja mia mbili na sitini halisi, na mateso ya mzozo wa sheria ya Jumapili yanawakilishwa na miezi arobaini na miwili ya Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu, aya ya tano. Jangwani, watu wa Mungu wana mahali palipoandaliwa kwao ambako wanalishwa na kutunzwa.
In Revelation chapter eight, and verse thirteen, the last three trumpets are identified as three woes. The woes in Revelation represent the trumpet judgments of Islam against the powers that pass Sunday laws. In the warfare that is illustrated in chapter twelve, the role of Islam is identified when it states, “Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” The persecution that Jezebel accomplishes through her apostate husband Ahab, is directed at the “earth” beast and the “sea” beast.
Katika Ufunuo sura ya nane, aya ya kumi na tatu, tarumbeta tatu za mwisho zinatambuliwa kama ole tatu. Ole katika Ufunuo zinawakilisha hukumu za tarumbeta za Uislamu dhidi ya mamlaka zinazopitisha sheria za Jumapili. Katika vita vinavyoonyeshwa katika sura ya kumi na mbili, jukumu la Uislamu linatambuliwa linaposema, "Ole kwa wakaaji wa nchi na wa bahari! kwa maana Ibilisi amewashukieni, akiwa na ghadhabu kuu, kwa sababu anajua ya kuwa ana wakati mfupi tu." Mateso ambayo Yezebeli anayatekeleza kupitia mume wake aliyeasi, Ahabu, yanalengwa kwa mnyama wa "nchi" na mnyama wa "bahari".
The movement of the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen, as with every reform movement, has four primary waymarks that lead to and include the judgment. For the movement of the first angel, those four waymarks were August 11, 1840, the first disappointment in the Spring of 1843, the arrival of the message of the Midnight Cry August 12 through 17 in 1844, and the opening of the judgment on October 22, 1844. Each of those four waymarks possessed the same overlying theme of “time.” August 11, 1840, was a fulfillment of the time prophecy of Revelation chapter nine, and verse fifteen. The first disappointment of 1843, represented a failed prediction of time. The Midnight Cry message was the correction of the previously failed prediction of time, and October 22, 1844, was the fulfillment of the predicted time of the message of the Midnight Cry.
Harakati ya malaika mwenye nguvu wa Ufunuo 18, kama ilivyo kwa kila harakati ya mageuzi, ina alama kuu nne za njia zinazoongoza hadi na kuijumuisha hukumu. Kwa harakati ya malaika wa kwanza, alama hizo nne za njia zilikuwa Agosti 11, 1840; kukatishwa tamaa kwa kwanza katika majira ya kuchipua ya mwaka 1843; kuwasili kwa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane kuanzia Agosti 12 hadi 17, 1844; na kufunguliwa kwa hukumu mnamo Oktoba 22, 1844. Kila mojawapo ya alama hizo nne za njia ilikuwa na mada kuu ileile ya "wakati." Agosti 11, 1840, ilikuwa utimilifu wa unabii wa wakati wa Ufunuo sura ya tisa, mstari wa kumi na tano. Kukatishwa tamaa kwa kwanza mwaka 1843 kulionyesha utabiri wa wakati uliothibitika kuwa si sahihi. Ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane ulikuwa marekebisho ya utabiri wa wakati uliothibitika kuwa si sahihi hapo awali, na Oktoba 22, 1844, ilikuwa utimilifu wa wakati uliotabiriwa wa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane.
The movement of the third angel has those same four waymarks, for they exist in every reform line, and as with all of those four waymarks of every reform line, each waymark possesses the same prophetic theme. Islam of the third woe, is the theme of the four waymarks in the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. On September 11, 2001 Islam of the third woe was released and then restrained. The failed prediction of July 18, 2020 identified an Islamic attack upon Nashville, Tennessee, and represented Islam of the third woe. The message that awakens the dead dry bones that are in the street of Revelation eleven, is the perfect and final fulfillment of the Midnight Cry message, and it represents a correction of the Nashville prediction (without the element of time). It will be fulfilled at the fourth waymark, which is the Sunday law, where Islam of the third woe will strike the United States because of its enforcement of the soon-coming Sunday law.
Harakati ya malaika wa tatu ina zile zile alama nne za njia, kwa kuwa zipo katika kila mstari wa matengenezo; na kama ilivyo kwa alama zile nne za njia za kila mstari wa matengenezo, kila alama ya njia ina mada ileile ya kinabii. Uislamu wa ole wa tatu ndiyo mada ya alama nne za njia katika harakati ya elfu mia moja arobaini na nne. Tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, Uislamu wa ole wa tatu uliachiliwa kisha ukazuiliwa. Utabiri wa tarehe 18 Julai 2020 uliokosa kutimia ulitaja shambulio la Kiislamu dhidi ya Nashville, Tennessee, na uliwakilisha Uislamu wa ole wa tatu. Ujumbe unaoamsha mifupa mikavu iliyokufa iliyoko katika mtaa wa Ufunuo kumi na moja ni utimilifu mkamilifu na wa mwisho wa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane, na unawakilisha marekebisho ya utabiri wa Nashville (bila kipengele cha wakati). Utatimia katika alama ya nne ya njia, ambayo ni sheria ya Jumapili, ambapo Uislamu wa ole wa tatu utaishambulia Marekani kwa sababu ya utekelezaji wake wa sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni.
When this truth is recognized, in conjunction with the fact that the mighty movement of the third angel is a warning of impending judgment, the Islamic judgment represented by the third woe can be easily understood as the “woe” that is brought upon “earth” and “sea.”
Ukweli huu unapotambuliwa, pamoja na ukweli kwamba harakati yenye nguvu ya malaika wa tatu ni onyo la hukumu inayokaribia, hukumu ya Kiislamu inayowakilishwa na ole wa tatu inaweza kueleweka kwa urahisi kama "ole" unaoletwa juu ya "nchi" na "bahari."
The judgment of the living began on September 11, 2001, and from that point, until the soon-coming Sunday law, the test of the formation of the image of the beast takes place in the United States. From the Sunday law until Michael stands up and human probation closes, the rest of the world will then be tested by the formation of the image of the beast. Whether Seventh-day Adventists in the United States are being tested, or the entire world after the Sunday law is being tested, the test is defined as the test where our eternal destiny will be decided. It is also the test we must pass, before probation closes at the Sunday law. The prophetic phenomenon of an image to the beast test first in the United States and then again in the world, is essential to understand correctly.
Hukumu ya walio hai ilianza Septemba 11, 2001, na kuanzia wakati huo, hadi sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, mtihani wa kuundwa kwa picha ya mnyama hufanyika nchini Marekani. Kuanzia sheria ya Jumapili hadi wakati Mikaeli atasimama na mlango wa rehema kwa wanadamu utafungwa, kisha ulimwengu uliosalia utajaribiwa kupitia kuundwa kwa picha ya mnyama. Iwe Waadventista Wasabato walioko Marekani ndio wanaojaribiwa, au ulimwengu mzima baada ya sheria ya Jumapili ndio unaojaribiwa, mtihani huo umefafanuliwa kuwa mtihani ambao hatima yetu ya milele itaamuliwa. Pia ni mtihani tunaopaswa kuupita, kabla mlango wa rehema kufungwa wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili. Tukio la kinabii la mtihani wa picha ya mnyama kutokea kwanza Marekani kisha tena ulimwenguni, ni muhimu sana kulielewa kwa usahihi.
“As America, the land of religious liberty, shall unite with the Papacy in forcing the conscience and compelling men to honor the false sabbath, the people of every country on the globe will be led to follow her example.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18.
“Wakati Marekani, nchi ya uhuru wa kidini, itakapoungana na Upapa katika kulazimisha dhamiri na kuwalazimisha watu kuiheshimu sabato ya uongo, watu wa kila nchi ulimwenguni wataongozwa kufuata mfano wake.” Ushuhuda, juzuu ya 6, 18.
When the symbols are understood, then the passage in Revelation thirteen, that addresses these two successive, but identical image of the beast tests, can be easily recognized. It is important for a variety of reasons. One reason is the corrupted communications that Lucifer employed in the first war in the third heaven illustrate how Satan’s corrupted communications will manifest again in the last war in the first heaven.
Alama zinapoeleweka, basi kifungu katika Ufunuo kumi na tatu kinachozungumzia mitihani miwili mfululizo ya sanamu ya mnyama, ambayo ni sawa kabisa, kinaweza kutambuliwa kwa urahisi. Ni muhimu kwa sababu mbalimbali. Sababu moja ni kwamba mawasiliano yaliyopotoshwa ambayo Lusifa alitumia katika vita ya kwanza katika mbingu ya tatu yanaonyesha jinsi mawasiliano yaliyopotoshwa ya Shetani yatakavyojitokeza tena katika vita ya mwisho katika mbingu ya kwanza.
The war of the first heaven that begins at the Sunday law, is accomplished during the testing period of the image of the beast for the entire world. Since September 11, 2001, the testing period of the image of the beast in the United States has been taking place. When we recognize these two testing periods as sequential, beginning with the United States and then the world, we can then factor in truths that are represented in the war of Revelation chapter twelve, back into the history of 2001, unto the Sunday law. As an example, the corrupted communications of Lucifer that is defined as hypnosis, will be employed in a modern application by the dragon power during the battle of the first heaven, of Revelation chapter twelve. The hypnosis that is employed by the dragon in that history is for the purpose of murdering those that Jezebel has identified as heretics.
Vita vya mbingu ya kwanza vinavyoanza wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili, vinakamilishwa wakati wa kipindi cha majaribio cha picha ya mnyama kwa ulimwengu mzima. Tangu tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, kipindi cha majaribio cha picha ya mnyama nchini Marekani kimekuwa kikiendelea. Tunapotambua vipindi hivi viwili vya majaribio kuwa vya mfululizo, vikianza na Marekani kisha ulimwengu, tunaweza kisha kuingiza ukweli unaowakilishwa katika vita vya Ufunuo sura ya kumi na mbili, katika historia ya 2001 hadi kufikia sheria ya Jumapili. Kwa mfano, mawasiliano yaliyopotoshwa ya Lusifa yanayofafanuliwa kuwa hipnozi, yatatumika katika matumizi ya kisasa na nguvu ya joka wakati wa vita vya mbingu ya kwanza vya Ufunuo sura ya kumi na mbili. Hipnozi inayotumiwa na joka katika historia hiyo ni kwa madhumuni ya kuua wale ambao Yezebeli amewatambua kuwa wazushi.
In the history of 2001, to the Sunday law, two witnesses were murdered in the street of Sodom and Egypt. In the first fulfillment of Revelation eleven, the nation represented by Sodom and Egypt, was France. France is a prophetic nation that consists of two powers, as did the Medo-Persian Empire, as did ancient Israel in its divided kingdoms, and as did the two tribes of Judah represented by Judah and Benjamin. All two-horned nations symbolically represent the two-horned nation of the United States.
Katika historia ya 2001 hadi sheria ya Jumapili, mashahidi wawili waliuawa katika barabara ya Sodoma na Misri. Katika utimilifu wa kwanza wa Ufunuo kumi na moja, taifa lililowakilishwa na Sodoma na Misri lilikuwa Ufaransa. Ufaransa ni taifa la kinabii linalojumuisha mamlaka mbili, kama ilivyokuwa kwa Dola ya Umedi na Uajemi, kama ilivyokuwa kwa Israeli ya kale katika falme zake zilizogawanyika, na kama ilivyokuwa kwa makabila mawili ya Yuda yanayowakilishwa na Yuda na Benjamini. Mataifa yote yenye pembe mbili yanawakilisha kwa mfano taifa lenye pembe mbili la Marekani.
The city of Sodom, and nation of Egypt, represents the two horns of Republicanism (Egypt) and Protestantism (Sodom). Two horns were slain in 2020, the horn of Republicanism and the horn of Protestantism. The hypnotism employed by the globalist dragon powers, through the medium of the worldwide web was then employed, in the same fashion that it will be employed in the upcoming war of the first heaven. By controlling the message that the worldwide web produced, the election of 2020, was scientifically manipulated to produce an outcome that agreed with the philosophy of globalism. This is simply an example of the necessity of understanding that the image of the beast test is accomplished first in the United States, and then in the world.
Mji wa Sodoma, na taifa la Misri, vinawakilisha pembe mbili za Uripablikani (Misri) na Uprotestanti (Sodoma). Pembe mbili zilipondwa mwaka 2020, pembe ya Uripablikani na pembe ya Uprotestanti. Hipnozi iliyotumiwa na nguvu za joka za wanaglobalisti, kupitia njia ya wavuti ya dunia nzima, kisha ikatumika kwa mtindo uleule ambao itatumika katika vita ijayo vya mbingu ya kwanza. Kwa kudhibiti ujumbe uliotolewa na wavuti ya dunia nzima, uchaguzi wa 2020 ulichezewa kwa njia za kisayansi ili kutoa matokeo yaliyoendana na falsafa ya uglobali. Huu ni mfano tu wa ulazima wa kuelewa kwamba jaribio la sanamu ya mnyama hutimizwa kwanza nchini Marekani, kisha duniani.
“The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. Your position is such a jumble of inconsistencies that but few will be deceived.
Bwana amenionyesha wazi kwamba sura ya mnyama itaundwa kabla ya mlango wa rehema kufungwa; kwa maana itakuwa jaribu kuu kwa watu wa Mungu, ambalo kupitia hilo hatima yao ya milele itaamuliwa. Msimamo wako ni mseto wa mambo yasiyolingana kiasi kwamba ni wachache tu watakaodanganywa.
“In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].
Katika Ufunuo 13 mada hii imewasilishwa kwa uwazi; [Ufunuo 13:11-17, imenukuliwa].
“This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.
Hili ndilo jaribio ambalo watu wa Mungu lazima wapitie kabla ya kutiwa muhuri. Wote waliothibitisha uaminifu wao kwa Mungu kwa kuitii sheria yake, na kukataa kukubali sabato bandia, watasimama chini ya bendera ya Bwana Mungu Yehova, nao watapokea muhuri wa Mungu aliye hai. Wale wanaoacha ukweli wa asili ya mbinguni na kukubali sabato ya Jumapili, watapokea alama ya mnyama. Manuscript Releases, juzuu ya 15, 15.
Probation closes for Seventh-day Adventists, at the enforcement of the Sunday law. Those countries that follow the example of the United States, will close their probation as did the United States.
Kwa Waadventista wa Sabato, mlango wa rehema unafungwa wakati sheria ya Jumapili inapotekelezwa. Nchi zitakazofuata mfano wa Marekani zitafunga mlango wao wa rehema kama ilivyofanya Marekani.
“Foreign nations will follow the example of the United States. Though she leads out, yet the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.” Testimonies, volume 6, 395.
"Mataifa ya kigeni yatafuata mfano wa Marekani. Ijapokuwa yeye ndiye anayeongoza, mgogoro uleule utawapata watu wetu katika sehemu zote za dunia." Ushuhuda, juzuu ya 6, 395.
The final movements are rapid ones.
Harakati za mwisho ni za haraka.
“The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.” Testimonies, volume 9, 11.
"Mawakala wa uovu wanaunganisha nguvu zao na kujiimarisha. Wanaimarika kwa ajili ya mgogoro mkubwa wa mwisho. Hivi karibuni mabadiliko makubwa yatatokea katika ulimwengu wetu, na matukio ya mwisho yatakuwa ya haraka." Shuhuda, juzuu ya 9, 11.
To understand the test of the image of the beast, requires a certain amount of technical prophetic application. To start with, the mark of the beast and the image of the beast are two different symbols.
Kuelewa jaribu la sanamu ya mnyama kunahitaji kiwango fulani cha utumiaji wa kiufundi wa unabii. Kwa kuanzia, alama ya mnyama na sanamu ya mnyama ni ishara mbili tofauti.
“The ‘image to the beast’ represents that form of apostate Protestantism which will be developed when the Protestant churches shall seek the aid of the civil power for the enforcement of their dogmas. The ‘mark of the beast’ still remains to be defined.” The Great Controversy, 445.
'picha ya mnyama' inawakilisha aina hiyo ya Uprotestanti uliopotoka ambayo itaibuka wakati makanisa ya Kiprotestanti yatakapotafuta msaada wa mamlaka za kiraia kwa ajili ya kulazimisha madogma yao. 'alama ya mnyama' bado haijafafanuliwa. The Great Controversy, 445.
The mark of the beast is Sunday observance, and the image of the beast is a church that employs the civil power to enforce her religious doctrines.
Alama ya mnyama ni utunzaji wa Jumapili, na sanamu ya mnyama ni kanisa linalotumia mamlaka ya kiraia kulazimisha mafundisho yake ya kidini.
“The enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy—of the beast. Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose to observe the false instead of the true Sabbath are thereby paying homage to that power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcing a religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form an image to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping in the United States would be an enforcement of the worship of the beast and his image.” The Great Controversy, 448, 449.
Kulazimisha utunzaji wa Jumapili kunakofanywa na makanisa ya Kiprotestanti ni kulazimisha ibada ya Upapa - ya mnyama. Wale ambao, wakiwa wanaelewa madai ya amri ya nne, wanachagua kushika Sabato bandia badala ya Sabato ya kweli, kwa kufanya hivyo wanatoa heshima kwa ile nguvu ambayo peke yake ndiyo huamuru hivyo. Lakini katika tendo lenyewe la kulazimisha wajibu wa kidini kwa kutumia mamlaka ya kiraia, makanisa yenyewe yangetengeneza picha ya mnyama; hivyo kulazimisha utunzaji wa Jumapili nchini Marekani kungekuwa ni kulazimisha ibada ya mnyama na picha yake. The Great Controversy, 448, 449.
The image of the beast represents the combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship. Jezebel ruled over Ahab, as Herodias ruled over Herod. The mark of the beast is Sunday keeping. The image of the beast develops over a period of time. The mark of the beast represents a point in time. The image of the beast progressively develops, but only reaches its full maturity, when it has the power to force the state to pass its religious dogmas. The test is associated with the “formation” of the image.
Sanamu ya mnyama inawakilisha muunganiko wa kanisa na serikali, huku kanisa likidhibiti uhusiano huo. Yezebeli alimtawala Ahabu, kama vile Herodia alimtawala Herode. Alama ya mnyama ni kutunza Jumapili. Sanamu ya mnyama hujengeka kwa muda. Alama ya mnyama inawakilisha wakati fulani maalum. Sanamu ya mnyama huendelea kujengeka hatua kwa hatua, lakini hufikia ukomavu wake kamili tu inapokuwa na nguvu za kuilazimisha serikali kupitisha makanuni yake ya kidini. Mtihani unahusishwa na "kuundwa" kwa sanamu hiyo.
“But what is the ‘image to the beast’? and how is it to be formed? The image is made by the two-horned beast, and is an image to the beast. It is also called an image of the beast. Then to learn what the image is like and how it is to be formed we must study the characteristics of the beast itself—the papacy.
Lakini “sanamu kwa mnyama” ni nini? Na itaundwaje? Sanamu hiyo hufanywa na mnyama mwenye pembe mbili, nayo ni sanamu kwa yule mnyama. Pia huitwa sanamu ya mnyama. Basi, ili kujua sanamu hiyo ilivyo na jinsi itakavyoundwa, ni lazima tuchunguze sifa za mnyama huyo mwenyewe—upapa.
“When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a church that controlled the power of the state and employed it to further her own ends, especially for the punishment of ‘heresy.’ In order for the United States to form an image of the beast, the religious power must so control the civil government that the authority of the state will also be employed by the church to accomplish her own ends.” The Great Controversy, 443.
"Kanisa la mapema lilipoharibika kwa kuiacha unyofu wa Injili na kukubali ibada na desturi za kipagani, lilipoteza Roho na nguvu za Mungu; na ili kudhibiti dhamiri za watu, lilitafuta uungwaji mkono wa mamlaka za kiraia. Matokeo yake yakawa upapa, kanisa lililodhibiti nguvu za dola na kuzitumia kuendeleza malengo yake mwenyewe, hasa kwa kuadhibu 'uzushi.' Ili Marekani iunde mfano wa yule mnyama, mamlaka ya kidini lazima yadhibiti serikali ya kiraia kiasi kwamba nguvu za dola pia zitatumiwa na kanisa kutimiza malengo yake mwenyewe." Pambano Kuu, 443.
The distinction between the image of the beast and the mark of the beast is fairly traditional Adventist understanding. Where Adventism generally loses its way on this subject is in Revelation thirteen. They somehow mix the activity of the United States after the Sunday law, when it forces the world to set up an image to the beast, with the setting up of the image of the beast in the United States. They are two different prophetic periods.
Tofauti kati ya sanamu ya mnyama na alama ya mnyama ni uelewa wa jadi miongoni mwa Waadventista. Mahali ambapo Uadventista kwa ujumla hupoteza mwelekeo kuhusu suala hili ni katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu. Kwa namna fulani wanachanganya shughuli za Marekani baada ya sheria ya Jumapili, ambapo inailazimisha ulimwengu kusimamisha sanamu kwa yule mnyama, pamoja na kusimamishwa kwa sanamu ya mnyama nchini Marekani. Hayo ni vipindi viwili tofauti vya kinabii.
Christ came to confirm the covenant with many for one week, and in the middle of the week He was crucified. Thus, that week typifies the two periods of time when an image of the beast is formed. Christ’s week was divided into two identical periods, representing the image of Christ. The two testing periods of times in the last days, represents the image of the antichrist.
Kristo alikuja kuthibitisha agano na wengi kwa muda wa juma moja, na katikati ya juma alisulubiwa. Hivyo, juma hilo linaashiria vipindi viwili vya wakati ambapo sanamu ya mnyama huundwa. Juma la Kristo liligawanywa katika vipindi viwili vinavyofanana kabisa, navyo viliwakilisha mfano wa Kristo. Vipindi viwili vya majaribu katika siku za mwisho vinawakilisha mfano wa Mpinga Kristo.
In the first period of twelve hundred and sixty days, Christ bore His own testimony, and then He died on the cross. There was then an identical twelve hundred and sixty days where the disciples testified, until Michael stood up at the stoning of Stephen. The cross typifies the Sunday law. The two periods of testing in connection with the formation of the image of the beast, identify the first period in connection with the one hundred and forty-four thousand, who are typified by Christ, and that period ends at the Sunday law, which is typified by the cross. The last identical period of testing that was represented by the work of the disciples in the time of Christ, focuses upon the great multitude, and it ends when Michael stands up, not at the stoning of Stephen, but at the close of human probation in Daniel 12:1.
Katika kipindi cha kwanza cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini, Kristo alitoa ushuhuda wake mwenyewe, kisha akafa msalabani. Kisha kukawa na kipindi kingine sawasawa cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini ambacho wanafunzi walitoa ushuhuda, hadi Mikaeli aliposimama wakati wa kupigwa mawe kwa Stefano. Msalaba unawakilisha sheria ya Jumapili. Vipindi viwili vya kujaribiwa vinavyohusiana na kuundwa kwa sanamu ya mnyama, vinabainisha kwamba kipindi cha kwanza kinahusiana na wale laki moja na arobaini na nne elfu, ambao wanafananishwa na Kristo, na kipindi hicho kinakoma katika sheria ya Jumapili, ambayo inawakilishwa na msalaba. Kipindi cha mwisho kilicho sawasawa cha kujaribiwa, ambacho kiliwakilishwa na kazi ya wanafunzi wakati wa Kristo, kinawalenga umati mkubwa, na kinakoma wakati Mikaeli anaposimama, si katika kupigwa mawe kwa Stefano, bali katika mwisho wa muda wa rehema kwa wanadamu katika Danieli 12:1.
Some fail to see the actual sequence of events in Revelation thirteen, verse eleven and onward, due to what often appears to be a purposeful unwillingness to acknowledge that when the United States speaks as a dragon, it represents the complete formation of the image of the beast in the United States. In order for the United States to pass a Sunday law, the image of the beast in the United States must be formed before the Sunday law. Read the few previous passages just cited from The Great Controversy again, if you do not understand the point.
Wengine hushindwa kuona mlolongo halisi wa matukio katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu, aya ya kumi na moja na kuendelea, kutokana na kile ambacho mara nyingi huonekana kuwa kutokutaka kwa makusudi kukubali kwamba Marekani inaponena kama joka, hilo linawakilisha uundaji kamili wa mfano wa mnyama nchini Marekani. Ili Marekani ipitishe sheria ya Jumapili, mfano wa mnyama nchini Marekani lazima uwe umeundwa kabla ya sheria ya Jumapili. Soma tena vifungu vichache vya awali vilivyotajwa hivi punde kutoka The Great Controversy, ikiwa hujaelewa hoja.
When the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven of chapter thirteen, it represents the action of the legislative and judicial authorities passing a Sunday law at the direction of the apostate churches in the United States. The Sunday law decree goes out of the mouth of the United States.
Wakati Marekani inanena kama joka katika aya ya kumi na moja ya sura ya kumi na tatu, hilo linawakilisha kitendo cha mamlaka za kutunga sheria na za mahakama kupitisha sheria ya Jumapili kwa maelekezo ya makanisa yaliyoasi nchini Marekani. Amri ya sheria ya Jumapili hutoka katika kinywa cha Marekani.
“I saw that the two-horned beast had a dragon’s mouth, and that his power was in his head, and that the decree would go out of his mouth.” Spalding and Magan, 1.
"Niliona kwamba mnyama mwenye pembe mbili alikuwa na kinywa cha joka, na kwamba nguvu zake zilikuwa katika kichwa chake, na kwamba agizo lingetoka kinywani mwake." Spalding na Magan, 1.
It has always amazed me that Adventism has a hard time recognizing that when the two horned earth beast speaks as a dragon, it is not simply marking the Sunday law in the United States, but is also marking that the image of the papal sea beast has been fully developed. In order for the United States to pass the Sunday law, the combination of church and state has to have first been fully developed. The apostate churches of the United States do not simply come together on a Monday, then go to Congress on Tuesday, and tell Congress they want Sunday legislation passed by Wednesday. The combining process that takes place between church and state, is represented as the “formation” of the image of the beast like the “formation” of the golden image in Daniel chapter 3, it will take some time to construct. The image of the beast is the system the papacy used to murder the millions of martyrs in the Dark Ages, and it takes social, political, religious and economic developments to create the social environment, and legal precedence necessary, for the Sunday law to be enforced. Those developments represent the test of the image of the beast, by “which our eternal destiny will be decided,” and it represents the test we must pass “before we are sealed.”
Daima imenishangaza kwamba Uadventista una ugumu wa kutambua kwamba wakati mnyama wa nchi mwenye pembe mbili ananena kama joka, si tu kwamba inaashiria sheria ya Jumapili nchini Marekani, bali pia inaashiria kwamba picha ya mnyama wa bahari wa kipapa imekamilika kikamilifu. Ili Marekani ipitishe sheria ya Jumapili, muungano wa kanisa na serikali lazima kwanza uwe umekamilika. Makanisa yaliyoasi nchini Marekani hayakutani tu siku ya Jumatatu, kisha kwenda Bunge la Marekani Jumanne, na kuliambia Bunge yanataka sheria ya Jumapili ipitishwe kufikia Jumatano. Mchakato wa kuunganisha unaotokea kati ya kanisa na serikali, unawakilishwa kama "uundaji" wa picha ya mnyama kama "uundaji" wa sanamu ya dhahabu katika Danieli sura ya 3; utachukua muda kujengwa. Picha ya mnyama ni mfumo ambao upapa ulitumia kuua mamilioni ya wafiadini katika Enzi za Giza, na inahitajika maendeleo ya kijamii, kisiasa, kidini na kiuchumi ili kuunda mazingira ya kijamii na misingi ya kisheria inayohitajika, ili sheria ya Jumapili itekelezwe. Maendeleo hayo yanawakilisha jaribio la picha ya mnyama, ambalo "ndilo litakaloamua hatima yetu ya milele," na pia yanawakilisha jaribio ambalo lazima tulipite "kabla hatujatiwa muhuri."
“The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. . .. This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.
"Bwana amenionyesha waziwazi kwamba sanamu ya mnyama itaundwa kabla ya mlango wa rehema kufungwa; kwa maana itakuwa jaribu kuu kwa watu wa Mungu, ambalo kwa njia yake hatima yao ya milele itaamuliwa. ... Hili ndilo jaribu ambalo watu wa Mungu lazima wapitie kabla hawajatiwa muhuri." Manuscript Releases, juzuu ya 15, 15.
The Sunday law is the crisis at midnight, that finds its final perfect fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins. In that midnight crisis, it will be manifested whether we are wise Philadelphian or foolish Laodicean virgins. The foolish receive the mark of the beast and the wise receive the seal of God. Anyone who has ever joined the Seventh-day Adventist church, agreed to the list of doctrinal truths in advance of becoming a member, and therefore every Seventh-day Adventist has been presented with the light of the truth of the Sabbath.
Sheria ya Jumapili ndiyo mgogoro wa usiku wa manane, unaopata utimilifu wake kamili wa mwisho katika mfano wa wanawali kumi. Katika mgogoro huo wa usiku wa manane, itadhihirika iwapo sisi ni wanawali wenye hekima wa Filadelfia au wanawali wapumbavu wa Laodikia. Wapumbavu hupokea alama ya mnyama na wenye hekima hupokea muhuri wa Mungu. Yeyote aliyewahi kujiunga na Kanisa la Waadventista Wasabato, alikubali orodha ya mafundisho ya kweli kabla ya kuwa mshiriki, na kwa hiyo kila Mwadventista Msabato amepatiwa nuru ya ukweli wa Sabato.
“If the light of truth has been presented to you, revealing the Sabbath of the fourth commandment, and showing that there is no foundation in the Word of God for Sunday observance, and yet you still cling to the false sabbath, refusing to keep holy the Sabbath which God calls ‘my holy day,’ you receive the mark of the beast. When does this take place?—When you obey the decree that commands you to cease from labor on Sunday and worship God, while you know that there is not a word in the Bible showing Sunday to be other than a common working-day, you consent to receive the mark of the beast, and refuse the seal of God. If we receive this mark in our foreheads or in our hands, the judgments pronounced against the disobedient must fall upon us. But the seal of the living God is placed upon those who conscientiously keep the Sabbath of the Lord.” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.
Ikiwa nuru ya kweli imekuwasilishwa, ikifunua Sabato ya amri ya nne, na kuonyesha kwamba hakuna msingi katika Neno la Mungu kwa kuishika Jumapili, na bado unaendelea kushikilia sabato ya uongo, ukikataa kuitunza kuwa takatifu Sabato ambayo Mungu anaiita ‘siku yangu takatifu,’ unapokea alama ya mnyama. Hili hutokea lini?—Wakati unapotii amri inayokuamuru uache kufanya kazi siku ya Jumapili na kumwabudu Mungu, ilhali unajua kwamba hakuna neno lolote katika Biblia linaloonyesha kwamba Jumapili si chochote ila siku ya kawaida ya kazi, unakubali kupokea alama ya mnyama, na unakataa muhuri wa Mungu. Tukipokea alama hii katika vipaji vyetu vya uso au katika mikono yetu, hukumu zilizotamkwa juu ya wasiotii lazima zishuke juu yetu. Lakini muhuri wa Mungu aliye hai huwekwa juu ya wale wanaoishika Sabato ya Bwana kwa uaminifu wa dhamiri. Review and Herald, Aprili 27, 1911.
The formation of the image of the beast in the United States began prophetically on September 11, 2001. There are several prophetic witnesses to uphold this fact. From that point until the soon-coming Sunday law, Seventh-day Adventists are determining their eternal destiny, based upon whether they pass the image of the beast test or fail the image of the beast test. I would argue that very few Seventh-day Adventists even know that the image of the beast is a test. Few, if any, know how it can be a test, and more importantly, they do not know what is required to pass the test. We are judged, not alone by the light we possess, but also by the light we could have possessed, if we would have applied ourselves to understanding the increase of knowledge. Laodicean blindness is therefore the greatest blindness in six thousand years of sin.
Kuundwa kwa sanamu ya mnyama nchini Marekani kulianza kinabii tarehe 11 Septemba 2001. Kuna mashahidi kadhaa wa kinabii wanaothibitisha ukweli huu. Kuanzia wakati huo hadi sheria ya Jumapili itakayokuja hivi karibuni, Waadventista Wasabato wanaamua hatima yao ya milele, kulingana na kama wanapita mtihani wa sanamu ya mnyama au wanashindwa mtihani wa sanamu ya mnyama. Ningesema kwamba wachache sana wa Waadventista Wasabato hata wanajua kwamba sanamu ya mnyama ni mtihani. Wachache, kama wapo, wanajua jinsi inavyoweza kuwa mtihani, na la muhimu zaidi, hawajui kinachohitajika ili kupita mtihani huo. Sisi tunahukumiwa, si kwa nuru tuliyo nayo tu, bali pia kwa nuru ambayo tungaliweza kuipata, kama tungejitahidi kuelewa ongezeko la maarifa. Kwa hiyo upofu wa Laodikia ndiyo upofu mkubwa kuliko wote katika miaka elfu sita ya dhambi.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6.
Watu wangu wanaangamizwa kwa kukosa maarifa; kwa kuwa umeyakataa maarifa, mimi nami nitakukataa, hutakuwa kuhani wangu; kwa kuwa umesahau sheria ya Mungu wako, mimi nami nitawasahau watoto wako. Hosea 4:6.
The test of the formation of the image of the beast ends at the soon-coming Sunday law, and if we have not passed that test, we will receive the mark of the beast with all the other foolish Laodicean virgins, who refused to obtain the oil. I am not here defending why I understand the image of the beast test began on September 11, 2001, and ends at the Sunday law. I am simply identifying the prophetic logic necessary to understand the role of the United States, as identified in Revelation thirteen, after it passes the Sunday law. In verse eleven, it speaks as a dragon, and from that point on it is important to follow the word “he.” The image of the beast that the United States is then forcing the world to set up, is not the image of the beast in the United States, for that is already in the past.
Jaribio la uundaji wa mfano wa mnyama linakamilika katika sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, na ikiwa hatutakuwa tumepita jaribio hilo, tutapokea alama ya mnyama pamoja na wanawali wengine wote wapumbavu wa Laodikia, waliokataa kupata mafuta. Siko hapa kutetea kwa nini ninaelewa kwamba jaribio la mfano wa mnyama lilianza Septemba 11, 2001, na linamalizika katika sheria ya Jumapili. Ninatambua tu mantiki ya kinabii inayohitajika ili kuelewa jukumu la Marekani, kama lilivyotambuliwa katika Ufunuo kumi na tatu, baada ya kupitisha sheria ya Jumapili. Katika aya ya kumi na moja, inanena kama joka, na kuanzia hapo ni muhimu kufuatilia neno "yeye." Mfano wa mnyama ambao Marekani kisha inalazimisha dunia kuusimamisha, si mfano wa mnyama ulioko Marekani, kwa maana huo tayari umepita.
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. 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. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And 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. Revelation 13:11–17.
Kisha nikaona mnyama mwingine akipanda kutoka katika nchi; naye alikuwa na pembe mbili kama mwanakondoo, naye alinena kama joka. Naye hutumia uwezo wote wa yule mnyama wa kwanza mbele zake, na kuifanya nchi na wakaao ndani yake wamsujudie yule mnyama wa kwanza, ambaye jeraha lake la mauti lilipona. Naye hufanya ishara kubwa, hata kushusha moto kutoka mbinguni uje juu ya nchi mbele ya wanadamu. Naye huwadanganya wale wakaao juu ya nchi kwa ishara zile alizopewa kuzifanya mbele ya yule mnyama; akiwaambia wale wakaao juu ya nchi wamfanyie sanamu yule mnyama, aliyekuwa na jeraha la upanga, naye akapona. Naye akapewa uwezo wa kutia pumzi katika ile sanamu ya mnyama, kusudi ile sanamu ya mnyama inanene, tena awafanye wote wasioisujudia ile sanamu ya mnyama wauawe. Naye awafanya wote, wadogo kwa wakubwa, matajiri kwa maskini, walio huru kwa watumwa, wapokee chapa juu ya mkono wao wa kuume, au juu ya vipaji vya nyuso zao; na kwamba mtu awaye yote asiweze kununua wala kuuza, ila yeye aliye na ile chapa, au jina la yule mnyama, au hesabu ya jina lake. Ufunuo 13:11-17.
In those seven verses, the word “he” occurs eight times. Every time the word “he” is employed it refers back to the original “he,” “that spake as a dragon,” at the Sunday law in the United States. The image of the beast test that Adventists in the United States either passed or failed, when the United States spake as a dragon, is then repeated for Adventists in the other nations of the world, and also for God’s other children that are still in Babylon. We will continue our consideration of the United States in Revelation thirteen in the next article, but let me remind you of why we are considering this truth at this time.
Katika ile mistari saba, neno "he" hutokea mara nane. Kila mara neno "he" linapotumiwa linarejea kwa "he" wa asili, "yule aliyesema kama joka," wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili nchini Marekani. Jaribio la sanamu ya mnyama ambalo Waadventista nchini Marekani ama walilifaulu au walilishindwa, wakati Marekani ilisema kama joka, kisha linarudiwa kwa Waadventista katika mataifa mengine ya dunia, na pia kwa watoto wengine wa Mungu ambao bado wako Babeli. Tutaendelea kuangalia Marekani katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu katika makala inayofuata, lakini niwakumbushe kwa nini tunazingatia ukweli huu wakati huu.
The war that began with Lucifer in the third heaven typifies the war that begins in the first heaven at the Sunday law. The corrupted communications of the dragon are represented in both battles. The modern manifestation of Satan’s corrupted communications represents the hypnotic trance that planet earth succumbs to in the history after the soon coming Sunday law. That delusion is accomplished through the worldwide web’s control of what is called “the information super highway.” Those various avenues of the “information super highway” are social, economic, religious, so-called science, entertainment and more importantly the avenue of the news media.
Vita vilivyoanza na Lusifa katika mbingu ya tatu vinaashiria vita vinavyoanza katika mbingu ya kwanza wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili. Mawasiliano yaliyopotoshwa ya yule joka yanawakilishwa katika vita vyote viwili. Udhihirisho wa kisasa wa mawasiliano yaliyopotoshwa ya Shetani unawakilisha hali ya kihipnoti ambayo sayari dunia huangukia katika historia baada ya sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni. Udanganyifu huo unatekelezwa kupitia udhibiti unaofanywa na wavuti ya dunia nzima juu ya kile kinachoitwa "barabara kuu ya taarifa." Njia mbalimbali za "barabara kuu ya taarifa" ni za kijamii, kiuchumi, kidini, inayodaiwa kuwa sayansi, burudani, na muhimu zaidi njia ya vyombo vya habari.
Once the truth is recognized that the “information super highway,” is the modern manifestation of the Satanic hypnotic communications, and also the subtle hypnosis that was employed by Satan in the battle of the angels in the third heaven, we can establish the “information super highway” is an element of the “last” image of the beast test for the world, that takes place after the Sunday law. It will then be easy to recognize that the “first” image of the beast test for the United States must possess the same corrupted Satanic communications as the last. The witness of Satan’s work of corrupting “the information super highway” from the Sunday law through to the close of probation provides the evidence of how the murder of the two horns of Republicanism and the remnant of true Protestantism on the earth beast was accomplished in 2020. It was accomplished by the “information super highway,” that John calls a “street” in Revelation eleven.
Mara tu ukweli unapotambuliwa kwamba "barabara kuu ya habari" ni udhihirisho wa kisasa wa mawasiliano ya kuhipnotisha ya Kishetani, na pia hipnozi ya hila iliyotumiwa na Shetani katika vita vya malaika katika mbingu ya tatu, tunaweza kuthibitisha kwamba "barabara kuu ya habari" ni kipengele cha mtihani wa "sanamu ya mnyama" wa "mwisho" kwa ulimwengu, unaofanyika baada ya sheria ya Jumapili. Hapo itakuwa rahisi kutambua kwamba mtihani wa "sanamu ya mnyama" wa "kwanza" kwa Marekani lazima uwe na mawasiliano yale yale ya Kishetani yaliyopotoshwa kama ule wa mwisho. Ushuhuda wa kazi ya Shetani ya kupotosha "barabara kuu ya habari" kuanzia sheria ya Jumapili hadi kufungwa kwa mlango wa rehema unatoa ushahidi wa jinsi mauaji ya pembe mbili, za Ujamhuri na mabaki ya Uprotestanti wa kweli, kwenye mnyama wa nchi yalifanikishwa mwaka 2020. Yalifanikishwa kupitia "barabara kuu ya habari," ambayo Yohana anaiita "barabara" katika Ufunuo kumi na moja.
The unsealing of these prophetic facts is a portion of what is required to be understood by those who intend to pass the test of the image of the beast, which was clearly seen by the prophetess, to be formed before probation closes and before the one hundred and forty-four thousand are sealed.
Kufunguliwa kwa mambo haya ya kinabii ni sehemu ya kile kinachohitajika kufahamika na wale wanaokusudia kupita mtihani wa picha ya mnyama, ambayo ilionekana wazi na nabii wa kike kuwa ingeundwa kabla ya mlango wa rehema kufungwa na kabla ya wale elfu mia arobaini na nne kutiwa muhuri.
“When the decree goes forth and the stamp is impressed, their character will remain pure and spotless for eternity.” Testimonies, volume 5, 216.
"Amri itakapotolewa na muhuri ukitiwa, tabia yao itabaki safi na isiyo na doa milele." Shuhuda, juzuu ya 5, 216.
