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.

Tumekuwa tukitambua vita vya mbinguni vilivyoelezwa katika sura ya kumi na mbili ya kitabu cha Ufunuo. Tukitumia kanuni ya tabia ya Kristo kwamba Yeye ni Alfa na Omega, tumechukulia vita vya mbinguni katika sura ya kumi na mbili kama mfano wa kinabii wa vita vya mbinguni vinavyotukia katika "siku za mwisho." Usemi "siku za mwisho" katika Biblia na Roho wa Unabii humaanisha siku za mwisho za hukumu ya uchunguzi.

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.

Tumetambua nguvu tatu za kishetani za sura ya kumi na mbili na kumi na tatu, si kama nguvu zilizotimia katika historia ya zamani, bali kama utimilifu wa kisasa wa nguvu hizo zinazoiongoza dunia hadi Armagedoni. Joka wa sura ya kumi na mbili ni Umoja wa Mataifa, Kanisa Katoliki, ambalo litafufuliwa wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili nchini Marekani, ndilo mnyama wa baharini wa sura ya kumi na tatu, na mnyama wa nchi mwenye pembe mbili ni Marekani.

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.

Tumekuwa tukibainisha kwamba vita vinavyoeleweka kwa kawaida katika sura ya kumi na mbili kuwa kwa kipekee ni uwakilishi wa uasi wa Lusifa mbinguni, kwa kweli vinaonyesha vita vinavyokaribia kutokea katika anga ya dunia, vikianzia kwenye sheria ya Jumapili inayokaribia kuanzishwa nchini Marekani. Tumechukua muda kubainisha kwamba kuna mchakato wa kujaribiwa unaoonyeshwa katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu, aya ya kumi na moja hadi ya kumi na saba, unaohusisha kutambua kuundwa kwa mfano wa mnyama. Mfano wa mnyama unawakilisha muungano wa kanisa na serikali, huku kanisa likidhibiti uhusiano huo. Kanisa linapokuwa na udhibiti, hutumia serikali kulazimisha mafundisho yake na kuwatesa wale linaowaita wazushi. Mchakato wa kujaribiwa wa ulimwengu mzima unaohusishwa na kuundwa kwa mfano wa mnyama, huanza kutekelezwa kwanza nchini Marekani. Sifa za kinabii za kila mojawapo ya michakato hii miwili ya kujaribiwa, kimsingi ni zilezile, iwe nchini Marekani au ulimwenguni.

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.

Tuliashiria vipindi viwili vilivyo sawa vya siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini vilivyotangulia na kufuata msalaba kama shahidi wa pili wa kubainisha michakato miwili mfululizo ya majaribio yanayohusiana na sanamu ya mnyama mwishoni mwa ulimwengu. Uundaji wa sanamu ya mnyama nchini Marekani kati ya Septemba 11, 2001, na sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, unatangulia uundaji wa sanamu ya mnyama katika Umoja wa Mataifa baada ya kuja kwa sheria hiyo ya Jumapili. Siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini za huduma ya Kristo kuanzia ubatizo wake hadi msalaba zilitangulia siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini za huduma ya wanafunzi wake zilizofuata msalaba. Mistari hiyo miwili, yote ikiwa na vipindi viwili vinavyowakilisha majaribio yaleyale katika kila kipindi, inawakilisha mada ya ama mfano wa Kristo au mfano wa mpinga-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.

Siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini za huduma ya Kristo zilizomalizika msalabani, zilianza aliposhuka Roho Mtakatifu katika ubatizo wake, zikilingana na kushuka kwa malaika mwenye nguvu wa Ufunuo kumi na nane tarehe 11 Septemba 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.

"Sasa inasemekana kwamba nimetamka kuwa New York itafagiliwa na wimbi kubwa la bahari? Hili sijawahi kulisema. Nimesema, nilipokuwa nikiangalia majengo makubwa yanayojengwa huko, ghorofa juu ya ghorofa, ‘Ni matukio ya kutisha kiasi gani yatakayotokea Bwana atakapoinuka kuutikisa dunia kwa kutisha sana! Ndipo maneno ya Ufunuo 18:1-3 yatatimia.’ Sura nzima ya kumi na nane ya Ufunuo ni onyo la yale yanayokuja juu ya dunia. Lakini sina nuru mahususi kuhusu yatakayoupata New York, ila najua kwamba siku moja majengo makubwa yaliyoko huko yataangushwa kwa kugeuzwa na kupinduliwa na nguvu ya Mungu. Kwa nuru niliyopewa, najua kwamba uharibifu umo duniani. Neno moja kutoka kwa Bwana, mguso mmoja wa nguvu zake kuu, na majengo haya makubwa yataanguka. Matukio yatajitokeza, yenye kutisha kuliko tuwezavyo kufikiria." Review and Herald, Julai 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.

Kipindi cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini katika historia ya Kristo, kilichomalizika msalabani, kinawakilisha kipindi cha wakati kinachomalizikia katika sheria ya Jumapili itakayokuja hivi karibuni. Msalaba ni kielelezo cha sheria ya Jumapili. Vyote viwili ni alama za hukumu. Vyote viwili vinawakilisha kuja kwa uharibifu wa kitaifa kwa taifa ambamo tukio la hukumu linatokea. Vyote viwili vilitokea katika nchi tukufu ya Yuda. Katika historia ya Kristo ilikuwa nchi tukufu halisi ya Yuda, na wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili ni nchi tukufu ya kiroho ya Yuda, Marekani. Msalabani, Kristo alinuliwa ili kuwavuta watu wote kwake.

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.

Nami, nikiinuliwa juu ya nchi, nitawavuta watu wote kwangu. Alisema hayo, akimaanisha ni kifo gani atakayokufa. 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.

Wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili, bendera ya wale elfu mia arobaini na nne inainuliwa ili kuwavuta watu wote kwa 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.

Naye atawainulia bendera mataifa walioko mbali, na atawapigia mluzi kutoka mwisho wa dunia; na tazama, watakuja kwa haraka sana. Isaya 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.

Kipindi cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini katika historia ya Kristo, kinachofuata msalaba, kinaishia na Mikaeli kusimama wakati wa kupigwa mawe kwa Stefano.

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.

Lakini yeye, akiwa amejaa Roho Mtakatifu, akakazia macho yake mbinguni, akaona utukufu wa Mungu, na Yesu amesimama mkono wa kuume wa Mungu. Akasema, Tazama, naona mbingu zimefunguka, na Mwana wa Adamu amesimama mkono wa kuume wa Mungu. Matendo ya Mitume 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.

Miezi arobaini na miwili ya kiishara ya kipindi cha majaribio cha sanamu ya mwisho ya mnyama inaishia wakati Mikaeli anaposimama na inaashiria kufungwa kwa kipindi cha majaribio cha wanadamu.

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.

Na wakati huo Mikaeli atasimama, yule mkuu mkuu, msimamizi wa wana wa watu wako; na kutakuwako wakati wa taabu, ambao haujawahi kuwako tangu lilipokuwapo taifa hata wakati huo; na wakati huo watu wako wataokolewa, kila mmoja atakayepatikana ameandikwa katika kitabu. Danieli 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.

Historia kamili ya michakato yote miwili ya majaribio ya sanamu ya mnyama inajumuisha ushuhuda mwingine wa ndani wa kinabii. Ikieleweka ipasavyo, na nakiri kwamba ni watu wachache wanaoelewa ukweli huu; lakini mchakato wa kwanza wa jaribio wa sanamu ya mnyama unaotimizwa nchini Marekani ulianza tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, wakati ole wa tatu uliingia katika historia. Sheria ya Jumapili ambapo mchakato huo wa kwanza wa jaribio wa sanamu ya mnyama unamalizika, inaashiria kuwasili kwa ole wa tatu katika hukumu dhidi ya Marekani kwa kupitishwa kwa sheria ya Jumapili. Wakati huo, kuwasili kwa ole wa tatu hutimiza kuwakasirisha mataifa, katika utimilifu wa Ufunuo sura ya kumi na moja, aya ya kumi na nane, na kutajwa kwa kwanza kwa jukumu la Uislamu la kuwakasirisha mataifa katika unabii wa Biblia.

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.

Naye atakuwa mtu wa porini; mkono wake utakuwa dhidi ya kila mtu, na mkono wa kila mtu utakuwa dhidi yake; naye atakaa mbele ya ndugu zake wote. Mwanzo 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.

Sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni ni mwisho wa kipindi cha kwanza cha majaribio, na pia mwanzo wa kipindi cha mwisho cha majaribio. Kipindi cha mwisho cha majaribio kinamalizika wakati muda wa rehema kwa wanadamu unapofungwa, na wakati huo upepo nne, ambao ni ishara ya ole wa tatu, huachiliwa kikamilifu.

“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.

Alipoona Mwokozi katika watu wa Kiyahudi taifa lililotengana na Mungu, akaona pia kanisa linalodai kuwa la Kikristo lililoungana na dunia na upapa. Na kama aliposimama juu ya Mlima wa Mizeituni, akilia juu ya Yerusalemu hadi jua likazama nyuma ya vilima vya magharibi, vivyo hivyo analia na kuwasihi wenye dhambi katika nyakati hizi za mwisho. Hivi karibuni atawaambia malaika wanaoshikilia pepo nne, 'Fungueni mapigo; na shuke giza, uharibifu, na mauti juu ya wavunjaji wa sheria yangu.' Je, atalazimika kusema kwa wale waliopata nuru kuu na maarifa, kama alivyowaambia Wayahudi, 'Laiti ungalijua, naam, wewe, angalau katika siku hii yako, mambo yahusuyo amani yako! Lakini sasa yamefichwa machoni pako'? Review and Herald, Oktoba 8, 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.

Katika historia ya Kristo, alama muhimu ya kwanza ya kipindi cha kwanza cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini ilianza katika ubatizo wake, uliokuwa ishara ya kifo chake na ufufuo wake. Kipindi hicho kilihitimishwa na kifo chake na ufufuo wake, ambavyo kwa wakati mmoja vilianza kipindi cha mwisho cha siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Kipindi hicho kilimalizika kwa kifo na ufufuo ulioahidiwa wa Stefano.

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.

Mfululizo wa historia unaowakilisha mfano wa Kristo una muundo wa kinabii ulio sawa kabisa na mfululizo wa historia unaowakilisha mfano wa Mpinga Kristo.

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.

Katika Maandiko, Kristo ndiye mfalme wa kweli wa kaskazini, na daima limekuwa kusudi la Shetani kuipindua na kuighushi mamlaka ya kifalme ya 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.

Jinsi ulivyoanguka kutoka mbinguni, ee Lusifa, mwana wa asubuhi! Jinsi ulivyoangushwa chini hata duniani, wewe uliyeudhoofisha mataifa! Kwa maana ulisema moyoni mwako, Nitapaa mbinguni, nitainua kiti changu cha enzi juu ya nyota za Mungu; nami nitaketi pia juu ya mlima wa mkutano, katika pande za kaskazini; nitapaa juu ya vilele vya mawingu; nitakuwa kama Aliye Juu Sana. Isaya 14:12-14.

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

“Pande za kaskazini” ni Yerusalemu, mji wa mfalme mkuu, ambapo kuna patakatifu pake.

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.

Wimbo na Zaburi kwa wana wa Kora. Bwana ni mkuu, na anastahili kusifiwa sana katika mji wa Mungu wetu, katika mlima wa utakatifu wake. Mrembo kwa mwinuko wake, furaha ya dunia yote, ni Mlima Sayuni, pande za kaskazini, mji wa Mfalme Mkuu. 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.

Katika Maandiko, wale “wafalme wa kaskazini” wa duniani daima huonyeshwa kama maadui wa watu wa Mungu. Wao wanawakilisha jitihada za Shetani za kuiga kwa udanganyifu mfalme wa kweli wa kaskazini, ambaye ameketi juu ya kiti chake cha enzi huko Yerusalemu, iliyo katika pande za kaskazini. Mstari unaowakilisha michakato miwili ya majaribu ya sanamu ya mnyama, unaokwenda sambamba na mstari wa michakato miwili ya majaribu ya mfano wa Kristo, una shahidi wa tatu katika mada ya jitihada za Shetani za kuwa mfalme wa kaskazini anayewatawala watu wa Mungu.

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.

Mwaka 723 KK, mfalme wa kaskazini, kama anavyowakilishwa na Ashuru, aliwapeleka utumwani falme kumi za kaskazini za Israeli katika utimilifu wa “mara saba” ya Mambo ya Walawi 26. Miaka elfu moja mia mbili na sitini baadaye, mwaka 538 BK, mfalme wa kaskazini, ambaye wakati huo aliwakilishwa na Roma ya kipagani halisi, alikabidhi kiti cha enzi kwa Roma ya kipapa, ambayo kisha ikawa mfalme wa kaskazini wa kiroho kwa miaka mingine elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Kipindi hicho cha pili cha miaka elfu moja mia mbili na sitini kilikoma mwaka 1798, wakati mfalme wa kaskazini wa kiroho wa Kirumi alipokea jeraha la mauti. Upapa ulipopokea jeraha lake la mauti mwaka 1798, hilo lilifananisha kufungwa kwa muda wa majaribio ya wanadamu, wakati upapa ulioufufuliwa hatimaye na kwa milele unafikia mwisho wake bila msaada wa yeyote.

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.

Naye atapiga mahema ya jumba lake la kifalme kati ya bahari, juu ya mlima mtakatifu mtukufu; lakini atafikia mwisho wake, wala hakuna atakayemsaidia. Na wakati huo Mikaeli atasimama, yule mkuu mkubwa asimamaye kwa ajili ya wana wa watu wako; na kutakuwapo wakati wa taabu ambao haujawahi kuwako tangu palipokuwapo taifa hata wakati huo; na wakati huo watu wako wataokolewa, kila mmoja atakayepatikana ameandikwa katika kitabu. 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.

"Mara saba" za Walawi ishirini na sita, ambazo ni sawa na miaka elfu mbili mia tano na ishirini, zinamtambua Ashuru kama mfalme wa kaskazini mnamo 723 KK, na kama mfalme wa kaskazini aliuteka ufalme wa "kaskazini" wa Israeli ya kale. Kuanzia wakati huo, upagani, kuanzia Ashuru hadi Roma ya kipagani, uliwakanyaga watu wa Mungu, "jeshi" la Danieli 8:13, kwa miaka elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Mnamo 538, mfalme halisi wa Kirumi wa kaskazini alishindwa kinabii na mfalme wa kaskazini wa Kirumi wa kiroho, ambaye aliikanyaga Israeli ya kiroho ya Mungu kwa miaka mingine elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Kipindi cha pili cha kukanyagwa kilimalizika wakati mfalme wa kaskazini wa Kirumi wa kiroho alipokea jeraha lake la mauti mnamo 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.

Kwenye mstari wa picha ya Kristo, kitovu ni msalaba, ambapo kifo kinatambuliwa. Katika vipindi viwili vya mtihani wa uundaji wa sanamu ya mnyama, kitovu ni kifo cha mnyama wa nchi. Kwenye mstari wa mfalme bandia wa kaskazini, kitovu ni kifo cha mfalme halisi wa Kirumi wa kaskazini.

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.

Mistari hii inawakilisha mashahidi watatu wa kibiblia, ambapo kila mmoja una vipindi viwili vya wakati vinavyofuatana ndani ya kipindi kimoja cha wakati. Kila sehemu ya katikati imewekwa alama na kifo cha kimwili, au kifo cha ufalme katika unabii wa Biblia. Kwa Kristo, sehemu ya katikati ilikuwa kifo chake na kufufuka kwake. Kwa mfano wa mnyama, sehemu ya katikati ni kifo cha mnyama wa nchi, ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia katika sheria ya Jumapili. Kwa mstari wa mfalme bandia wa kaskazini, sehemu ya katikati inawakilisha kifo cha mfalme halisi wa Kirumi wa kaskazini, ufalme wa nne wa unabii wa Biblia.

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.

Mashahidi wawili wa Ufunuo kumi na moja, kulingana na Dada White katika The Great Controversy, wanawakilisha Neno la Mungu. Kristo ni Neno la Mungu. Hao mashahidi wawili walipewa nguvu ya kutabiri kwa siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini, wakiwa wamevaa magunia. Kisha waliuawa barabarani, wala hawakuinuka kwa siku tatu na nusu. "Siku elfu moja mia mbili na sitini," na "siku tatu na nusu" vyote ni vielelezo vya kipindi cha nyikani cha miaka elfu moja mia mbili na sitini. Walianza kwa kutiwa uwezo ambamo walitabiri wakiwa wamevaa magunia, na hilo likaishia kwa kifo. Kisha kwa kipindi hicho hicho cha kinabii wakanyamaza na kuvikwa na mauti, hadi walipofufuliwa ili kuwasilisha onyo la malaika wa tatu linalotangaza kufungwa kwa mlango wa rehema.

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.

Mistari hii minne ya kinabii ni sawa na mashahidi wanne. Muundo wa kinabii wa kila mmoja wa mashahidi wanne ni sawa kabisa. Vipindi vya muda vya kila moja kati ya vipindi vinane, vinavyopatikana katika mistari hiyo minne, ni sawa kinabii, isipokuwa kipindi cha kuanzia Septemba 11, 2001 hadi sheria ya Jumapili itakayokuja hivi karibuni. Kila nukta ya kati inawakilisha aina fulani ya kifo. Mistari miwili kati ya hiyo minne inamhusu Kristo, ama kama mfano Wake, au kama Neno la Mungu. Mistari mingine miwili inawakilisha Mpinga-Kristo, iwe ni kama tamaa yake ya kuiga Kristo kama mfalme wa kaskazini, au ya kuiga mfumo wa utawala wa Kristo.

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.

Tutajaribu kuhusisha elfu mia arobaini na nne na vita katika mbingu ya kwanza katika makala yetu ijayo. Msomaji mpendwa, au msikilizaji: Iwapo unakataa kuona hizi kweli, au unaziona, yapasa kubainishwa kwamba taarifa zinazowasilishwa katika makala hizi zote hutambuliwa, kisha kuungwa mkono na kudumishwa kupitia hatua ya kutumia mwanzo wa jambo ili kubaini mwisho wake. Hii ndiyo alama ya kinabii ya Alfa na Omega, na ni kipengele kikubwa cha Ufunuo wa Yesu Kristo ambacho sasa kinafunuliwa.

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.

Mambo yaliyositirika ni ya Bwana, Mungu wetu; bali yaliyofunuliwa ni yetu sisi na watoto wetu hata milele, tupate kuyafanya maneno yote ya torati hii. Kumbukumbu la Torati 29:29.
