William Miller’s foundational truths were covered up over the four generations of Adventism. The restoration of those foundational truths are set forth in his second dream, and repeatedly identified in the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy as the work God’s last day people are to accomplish. Miller’s dream identifies that when the dirt brush man restores the jewels, they will shine ten times brighter than the sun.
Uilyam Millerning poydevor haqiqatlari adventizmning to‘rt avlodi davomida yopib qo‘yildi. O‘sha poydevor haqiqatlarning qayta tiklanishi uning ikkinchi tushida bayon etilgan bo‘lib, Muqaddas Kitobda va Bashorat Ruhi asarlarida qayta-qayta Xudoning oxirgi kunlardagi xalqi amalga oshirishi kerak bo‘lgan ish sifatida ko‘rsatilgan. Millerning tushi shuni bildiradiki, kirni supurib tashlovchi kishi javohirlarni qayta tiklaganida, ular quyoshdan o‘n barobar yorqinroq porlaydi.
Miller’s framework was based upon recognizing the two desolating powers of paganism followed by papalism, and the apostle Paul’s testimony in chapter two of Thessalonians, provided Miller with the anchor for his framework. There Paul identifies that pagan Rome had restrained the papacy from rising to power, until pagan Rome was taken away. In 2 Thessalonians, Paul also provided the anchor for the framework of Future for America, when Paul identified that the “man of sin” in the chapter was also represented as the king that exalted himself, in Daniel chapter eleven, and verse thirty-six.
Millerning sxemasi butparastlikdan keyin papalik keladigan ikki vayron qiluvchi kuchni tan olishga asoslangan edi, va Salonikaliklarga yozilgan maktubning ikkinchi bobidagi havoriy Pavlusning guvohligi Millerning sxemasi uchun tayanch bo‘lib xizmat qildi. U yerda Pavlus butparast Rim papalikning hokimiyatga ko‘tarilishiga to‘sqinlik qilib turganini, to butparast Rim olib tashlanmaguncha, aniqlab beradi. 2 Salonikaliklarga maktubda Pavlus, shuningdek, Future for America sxemasi uchun ham tayanchni taqdim etdi, chunki Pavlus bu bobdagi “gunoh odami” Doniyor kitobining o‘n birinchi bobi, o‘ttiz oltinchi oyatida o‘zini ulug‘lagan shoh sifatida ham tasvirlanganini ko‘rsatdi.
It is essential to see that the increase of knowledge in the movement of both the first and third angels, was directly connected with Paul’s testimony in chapter two of Thessalonians. At the time of the end in 1798, and also in 1989, the book of Daniel was unsealed, thus initiating a three-step testing process. The testing process always produces two classes of worshippers in the history where the book of Daniel is unsealed. It is essential to see Paul’s writings in connection with the increase of knowledge at the time of the end, for it is in that very chapter where Paul warns that those who do not receive the “love of the truth,” will receive strong delusion from God. The strong delusion is what is brought upon the wicked in Daniel chapter twelve, who reject the increase of knowledge. In both histories the strong delusion is most directly referring to Adventism.
Birinchi va uchinchi farishtalarning harakatidagi bilimning ortishi Salonikaliklarga yozilgan maktubning ikkinchi bobidagi Pavlusning guvohligi bilan bevosita bog‘liq ekanini ko‘rish nihoyatda muhimdir. Oxir zamonda, 1798-yilda, shuningdek 1989-yilda ham, Doniyor kitobi muhrdan ochildi va shu tariqa uch bosqichli sinov jarayoni boshlandi. Doniyor kitobi muhrdan ochiladigan tarixda sinov jarayoni har doim sajda qiluvchilarning ikki toifasini vujudga keltiradi. Oxir zamonidagi bilimning ortishi bilan bog‘liq holda Pavlusning yozuvlarini ko‘rish nihoyatda muhimdir, chunki aynan o‘sha bobda Pavlus “haqiqatning sevgisi”ni qabul qilmaydiganlar Xudodan kuchli adashuvni qabul qilishlari haqida ogohlantiradi. Kuchli adashuv Doniyorning o‘n ikkinchi bobida bilimning ortishini rad etuvchi yovuzlar ustiga keltiriladigan narsadir. Har ikkala tarixda ham kuchli adashuv eng bevosita ravishda Adventizmga ishora qiladi.
“One who sees beneath the surface, who reads the hearts of all men, says of those who have had great light: ‘They are not afflicted and astonished because of their moral and spiritual condition.’ Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations. I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.’ ‘God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie,’ because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved,’ ‘but had pleasure in unrighteousness.’ Isaiah 66:3, 4; 2 Thessalonians 2:11, 10, 12.
“Yuzaki ko‘rinish ostini ko‘radigan, barcha insonlarning qalbini o‘qiydigan Zot buyuk nurga ega bo‘lganlar haqida shunday deydi: ‘Ular o‘zlarining axloqiy va ruhiy holatlari sababli qayg‘uga botmaganlar ham, dahshatga tushmaganlar ham.’ Ha, ular o‘z yo‘llarini o‘zlari tanladilar, va ularning joni o‘z jirkanchliklaridan zavq oladi. Men ham ularning aldanishlarini tanlayman va qo‘rqqan narsalarini boshlariga keltiraman; chunki Men chaqirganimda, hech kim javob bermadi; Men so‘zlaganimda, ular quloq solmadilar; aksincha, ko‘z o‘ngimda yomonlik qildilar va Men xush ko‘rmagan narsani tanladilar.’ ‘Xudo ularga kuchli adashishni yuboradi, toki ular yolg‘onga ishonsinlar,’ chunki ular najot topishlari uchun ‘haqiqat sevgisini qabul qilmadilar,’ ‘balki nohaqlikdan zavq oldilar.’ Ishayo 66:3, 4; 2 Salonikaliklarga 2:11, 10, 12.
“The heavenly Teacher inquired: ‘What stronger delusion can beguile the mind than the pretense that you are building on the right foundation and that God accepts your works, when in reality you are working out many things according to worldly policy and are sinning against Jehovah? Oh, it is a great deception, a fascinating delusion, that takes possession of minds when men who have once known the truth, mistake the form of godliness for the spirit and power thereof; when they suppose that they are rich and increased with goods and in need of nothing, while in reality they are in need of everything.’
“Samoviy Muallim shunday deb so‘radi: ‘Aqlni yo‘ldan uradigan bundan-da kuchliroq qanday aldanish bo‘lishi mumkin: siz to‘g‘ri poydevor ustida qurayotganingizga va Xudo ishlaringizni qabul qilayotganiga da’vo qilasiz-u, holbuki, amalda ko‘p narsalarni dunyoviy siyosatga ko‘ra qilayotgan bo‘lasiz va Yahovaga qarshi gunoh qilayotgan bo‘lasiz? Oh, haqiqatni bir vaqtlar bilgan odamlar taqvodorlikning ruhini va qudratini emas, balki uning tashqi ko‘rinishini o‘shaning o‘zi deb adashtirganlarida; o‘zlarini boyib ketgan, ne’matlar bilan to‘lgan va hech narsaga muhtoj emas deb hisoblaganlarida, holbuki aslida ular hamma narsaga muhtoj bo‘lganlarida, bu aql-u qalblarni egallab oladigan buyuk bir aldov, maftunkor bir sarobdir.’”
“God has not changed toward His faithful servants who are keeping their garments spotless. But many are crying, ‘Peace and safety,’ while sudden destruction is coming upon them. Unless there is thorough repentance, unless men humble their hearts by confession and receive the truth as it is in Jesus, they will never enter heaven. When purification shall take place in our ranks, we shall no longer rest at ease, boasting of being rich and increased with goods, in need of nothing.
“Xudo O‘z kiyimlarini dog‘siz saqlab kelayotgan sodiq xizmatkorlariga nisbatan o‘zgargani yo‘q. Ammo ko‘plar: ‘Tinchlik va omonlik’, deb faryod qilmoqdalar, holbuki, ularning ustiga to‘satdan halokat kelmoqda. Agar chuqur tavba bo‘lmasa, agar insonlar e’tirof orqali qalblarini kamtar qilmasalar va haqiqatni Isoda qanday bo‘lsa, shunday qabul qilmasalar, ular hech qachon osmonga kirmaydilar. Saflarimiz orasida poklanish yuz berganida, biz endi o‘zimizni boy, mol-dunyoga to‘lgan, hech narsaga muhtoj emas deb maqtanib, beparvo osoyishtalikda yotmaymiz.
“Who can truthfully say: ‘Our gold is tried in the fire; our garments are unspotted by the world’? I saw our Instructor pointing to the garments of so-called righteousness. Stripping them off, He laid bare the defilement beneath. Then He said to me: ‘Can you not see how they have pretentiously covered up their defilement and rottenness of character? ‘How is the faithful city become an harlot!’ My Father’s house is made a house of merchandise, a place whence the divine presence and glory have departed! For this cause there is weakness, and strength is lacking.’” Testimonies, volume 8, 249, 250.
“Kim chin dildan: ‘Bizning oltinimiz olovda sinalgan; kiyimlarimiz dunyodan dog‘sizdir’, deb ayta oladi? Men Ustozimizning soxta solihlik deb ataluvchi kiyimlarga ishora qilayotganini ko‘rdim. U ularni yechib tashlab, ostidagi ifloslikni ochib berdi. So‘ng U menga dedi: ‘Ular o‘zlarining iflosliklari va fe’l-atvorlarining chirkinligini qanday riyokorona berkitib qo‘yganlarini ko‘rmayapsanmi? “Sodiq shahar qanday qilib fohishaga aylangan!” Otamning uyi savdo uyiga, ilohiy huzur va ulug‘vorlik tark etgan joyga aylantirildi! Ana shu sababdan zaiflik bor, va quvvat yetishmayapti.’” Testimonies, 8-jild, 249, 250.
Adventism was “the faithful city” when it proclaimed the Midnight Cry in 1844. By 1863, it began the process of rejecting the “foundations” that were established through the ministry of William Miller. When they began to set aside the foundational truths, thus covering them with counterfeit jewels and coins, they were building a new foundation. Those that began, carried out and continue that work, are represented in the writing of the Spirit of Prophecy as “those who have had great light.”
Adventizm 1844-yilda Yarim tun nidosini e’lon qilganida “sodiq shahar” edi. 1863-yilga kelib, u Uilyam Millerning xizmati orqali barpo etilgan “poydevorlar”ni rad etish jarayonini boshladi. Ular poydevor haqiqatlarini chetga sura boshlaganlarida, shu tariqa ularni qalbaki javohirlar va tangalar bilan qoplagan holda, yangi bir poydevor qurayotgan edilar. Bu ishni boshlagan, amalga oshirgan va davom ettirayotganlar, Bashorat Ruhi yozuvlarida “buyuk nurga ega bo‘lganlar” sifatida tasvirlangan.
The “great light” they once had, was represented in Miller’s dream as the jewels in the casket, which Miller placed upon a table in the center of his room, that shone brighter than “the sun.” In the passage just cited Sister White identifies, “those who have had great light,” but who “have chosen their own ways.”
Ular bir vaqtlar ega bo‘lgan “buyuk nur” Millerning tushida sandiqchadagi javohirlar sifatida ifodalangan edi; Miller ularni xonasining o‘rtasidagi stol ustiga qo‘ygan, va ular “quyosh”dan ham yorqinroq porlagan edi. Hozirgina keltirilgan parchada Oq opa “buyuk nurga ega bo‘lgan”, ammo “o‘z yo‘llarini tanlagan” kishilarni tilga oladi.
They chose a new way in 1863. She says it is “a fascinating delusion, that takes possession of minds when men who have once known the truth, mistake the form of godliness for the spirit and power thereof; when they suppose that they are rich and increased with goods and in need of nothing, while in reality they are in need of everything.”
Ular 1863-yilda yangi yo‘lni tanladilar. U buni shunday deydi: “Bu maftunkor bir aldovdir; bir vaqtlar haqiqatni bilgan kishilar taqvodorlikning shaklini uning ruhi va qudrati deb xato qilganlarida; o‘zlarini boy, ne’matlarga to‘la va hech narsaga muhtoj emas deb hisoblaganlarida, holbuki aslida ular hamma narsaga muhtoj bo‘lganlarida, bu aldov onglarni egallab oladi.”
She is identifying the Laodicean condition, which she and her husband identified occurred in 1856. They were then tested for seven years, but failed the test in 1863, and began erecting the false foundation that brings the strong delusion of Paul’s warning message in Thessalonians. Paul’s warning in Thessalonians is an anchor for both the movement at the beginning and ending of Adventism, and aligns perfectly with Miller’s dream, which addresses both the beginning and ending of Adventism. His dream identifies that when the work of restoring the original jewels of truth is accomplished, those truths will shine ten times brighter than when they first shone at the Midnight Cry in the beginning of Adventism. How is it that Miller’s understanding shines any brighter now, than when he first recognized the truth?
U Laodikeya holatini aniqlamoqda; u va uning eri bu holat 1856-yilda yuz berganini aniqlagan edilar. Shundan so‘ng ular yetti yil davomida sinovdan o‘tdilar, biroq 1863-yilda bu sinovdan o‘ta olmadilar va Salonikaliklarga yozilgan maktubdagi Pavlusning ogohlantiruvchi xabarida tilga olingan kuchli aldanishni keltirib chiqaradigan soxta poydevorni qurishni boshladilar. Pavlusning Salonikaliklarga yozgan maktubidagi ogohlantirishi Adventizmning ham boshlanishi, ham oxiri uchun bir tayanchdir va Adventizmning ham boshlanishi, ham oxiriga daxldor bo‘lgan Millerning tushi bilan mutlaqo uyg‘undir. Uning tushi asl haqiqat gavharlarini tiklash ishi nihoyasiga yetganda, bu haqiqatlar Adventizmning boshida Yarim Tun Faryodida ilk bor porlagan paytdagidan o‘n baravar yorqinroq porlashini ko‘rsatadi. Qanday qilib Millerning tushunchasi hozir, u haqiqatni ilk bor anglagan paytdagidan ko‘ra, yanada yorqinroq porlayotgan bo‘lishi mumkin?
There are several truths represented upon the two sacred charts of Habakkuk chapter two. Those truths were represented in Miller’s dream as jewels that would ultimately be restored in the last days, just before the Midnight Cry. The counterfeit jewels that are carried out of the window in Miller’s dream represent both the false doctrines that were brought into Adventism to create a false foundation, and also to hide the true foundation; but they also represent those who refuse to turn loose of the false doctrines that make up the false foundation. “The daily” was the anchor for William Miller’s framework of truth that established the original foundation, and in the last days “the daily,” symbolizes not only paganism, as Miller correctly identified, but it is the symbol of the rebellion that produced the false foundation.
Habakkukning ikkinchi bobi haqidagi ikki muqaddas jadvalda bir necha haqiqatlar tasvirlangan. Bu haqiqatlar Millerning tushida oxir-oqibat oxirgi kunlarda, aynan Yarim Tun Faryodidan sal oldin qayta tiklanadigan javohirlar sifatida tasvirlangan edi. Millerning tushida derazadan tashqariga olib chiqib ketiladigan qalbaki javohirlar, bir tomondan, soxta poydevor yaratish va haqiqiy poydevorni yashirish uchun adventizmga olib kirilgan soxta ta’limotlarni anglatadi; ammo ular, shuningdek, soxta poydevorni tashkil etadigan soxta ta’limotlardan voz kechishni rad etadigan kishilarni ham anglatadi. “Kundalik” Uilyam Millerning asl poydevorni barpo etgan haqiqat tizimi uchun langar bo‘lgan, va oxirgi kunlarda “kundalik” nafaqat Miller to‘g‘ri aniqlaganidek majusiylikni, balki soxta poydevorni yuzaga keltirgan isyonning ramzini ham bildiradi.
The Bible, the Spirit of Prophecy and history all testify that the judgment-hour cry of 1798 through 1844, was the proclamation of the message discovered and presented by William Miller. This is why the movement is called the Millerite movement. Logically to reject that movement, is to reject the light that was produced in 1798, that Daniel identified as an increase of knowledge.
Muqaddas Kitob, Bashorat Ruhi va tarixning barchasi 1798 yildan 1844 yilgacha bo‘lgan hukm-soati faryodi Uilyam Miller tomonidan kashf etilib taqdim etilgan xabarning e’lon qilinishi bo‘lganiga guvohlik beradi. Shu sababli bu harakat Milleriylar harakati deb ataladi. Mantiqan olganda, o‘sha harakatni rad etish — Doniyor bilimning ortishi deb belgilagan, 1798 yilda yuzaga chiqqan nurni rad etishdir.
Isaiah speaks of the drunkards of Ephraim, and identifies those drunkards as the scornful men that rule the people of Jerusalem. Isaiah identifies that they are not drunk with literal wine, they are drunk with spiritual wine. Spiritual wine in the Bible is either true or false doctrine, depending upon the context. The drunkards of Ephraim are drunk on false doctrine, which is the wine of Babylon, as represented by the whore of Tyre in chapter seventeen, of Revelation and by Belshazzar in his last night of partying.
Ishayo Efrayimning mastlari haqida so‘zlaydi va bu mastlarni Quddus xalqini boshqarayotgan masxarachi kishilar deb ko‘rsatadi. Ishayo ularning tom ma’nodagi sharobdan emas, balki ruhiy sharobdan mast ekanliklarini aniqlab beradi. Muqaddas Kitobda ruhiy sharob, mazmuniga qarab, yo haqiqiy, yo soxta ta’limotni anglatadi. Efrayimning mastlari soxta ta’limotdan mast bo‘lganlar; bu esa Vahiyning o‘n yettinchi bobida Tir fohishasi orqali va Belshazar bazm qilgan oxirgi kechasida tasvirlangan Bobilning sharobidir.
Isaiah identified the effects of the spiritual drunkenness that comes upon the scornful men that rule the people of Jerusalem.
Ishayo Quddus shahridagi xalq ustidan hukmronlik qiladigan masxarachi kishilar ustiga keladigan ruhiy mastlikning oqibatlarini bayon qildi.
Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry: they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. For the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered. And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed: And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned. Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us? Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding? Isaiah 29:9–16.
To‘xtab qolinglar va hayratga tushinglar; faryod qilinglar va qichqiringlar: ular mastdirlar, ammo sharobdan emas; ular gandiraklaydilar, ammo kuchli ichimlikdan emas. Chunki Egamiz sizlarning ustingizga qattiq uyqu ruhini to‘kdi va ko‘zlaringizni yumdi: payg‘ambarlarni va hukmdorlaringizni, ko‘ruvchilarni U qopladi. Va hamma vahiy sizlar uchun muhrlangan kitobning so‘zlari kabi bo‘lib qoldi; uni bilimdonga berib: “Buni o‘qib ber, iltimos”, deydilar; u esa: “O‘qiy olmayman, chunki u muhrlangan”, deydi. Va kitobni savodsizga berib: “Buni o‘qib ber, iltimos”, deydilar; u esa: “Men savodli emasman”, deydi. Shuning uchun Egamiz dedi: “Bu xalq Menga og‘zi bilan yaqinlashadi va lablari bilan Meni ulug‘laydi, ammo yuragini Mendan uzoqlashtirgan, Menga bo‘lgan qo‘rquvi esa insoniy qoidalar bilan o‘rgatilgandir. Shuning uchun, mana, Men bu xalq orasida ajoyib bir ishni, ha, mo‘jizaviy bir ishni va hayratomuz hodisani amalga oshiraman; chunki ularning donolarining donoligi yo‘q bo‘ladi, va ularning oqillarining fahmi yashirin bo‘ladi. Egamizdan o‘z maslahatlarini chuqur yashirishga urinadiganlarning holiga voy! Ularning ishlari zulmatda bo‘ladi, va ular: ‘Bizni kim ko‘radi? Va bizni kim biladi?’ deydilar. Albatta, narsalarni ostin-ustun qilishingiz kulolning loyi kabi sanaladi: axir yaratilgan narsa uni yaratgan haqida: ‘U meni yaratmadi’, deydimi? Yoki yasalgan narsa uni yasagan haqida: ‘Uning aqli yo‘q edi’, deydimi?” Ishayo 29:9–16.
Sister White quotes these verses and then adds:
Opa Uayt bu oyatlarni iqtibos qiladi va so‘ng shunday qo‘shimcha qiladi:
“Every word of this will be fulfilled. There are those who do not humble their hearts before God, and who will not walk uprightly. They hide their true purposes, and keep in fellowship with the fallen angel, who loveth and maketh a lie. The enemy puts his spirit upon the men whom he can use to deceive those who are partially in the dark. Some are becoming imbued with the darkness that prevails, and are setting the truth aside for error. The day pointed out by prophecy is come. Jesus Christ is not understood. Jesus Christ is to them a fable. At this stage of the earth’s history, many act like drunken men. ‘Stay yourselves, and wonder; cry ye out, and cry; they are drunken, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink. For the Lord hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes. The prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.’ A spiritual drunkenness is upon many who suppose they are the people who shall be exalted. Their religious faith is just as is represented in this Scripture. Under its influence, they cannot walk straight. They make crooked paths in their course of action. One and then another, they reel to and fro. They are looked upon by the Lord with great pity. The way of truth they have not known. They are scientific schemers, and those who could and should have helped, because of a clear spiritual eyesight, are themselves deceived, and are sustaining an evil work.
“Buning har bir so‘zi amalga oshadi. Yuraklarini Xudo oldida kamtar qilmaydigan va to‘g‘rilik bilan yurmaydiganlar bor. Ular o‘zlarining asl maqsadlarini yashiradilar va yolg‘onni sevuvchi hamda sodir etuvchi qulagan farishta bilan hamfikrlikda qoladilar. Dushman o‘z ruhini qisman zulmat ichida bo‘lganlarni aldash uchun ishlata oladigan odamlar ustiga qo‘yadi. Ba’zilar hukm surayotgan zulmat bilan sug‘orilib bormoqda va haqiqatni xato uchun bir chetga surmoqda. Bashorat ko‘rsatgan kun yetib keldi. Iso Masih anglanmayapti. Iso Masih ular uchun afsonadir. Yer tarixining mana shu bosqichida ko‘plar mast odamlardek harakat qiladilar. ‘To‘xtab turinglar va hayratlaninglar; faryod qilinglar va dod solinglar; ular mastdirlar, ammo sharobdan emas; ular gandiraklaydilar, ammo kuchli ichimlikdan emas. Chunki Egamiz ustingizga qattiq uyqu ruhini quydi va ko‘zlaringizni yumdi. Payg‘ambarlarni ham, hukmdorlaringizni ham, ko‘ruvchilarni ham U qopladi.’ O‘zlarini yuksaltiriladigan xalq deb hisoblovchi ko‘plar ustida ruhiy mastlik bor. Ularning diniy e’tiqodi aynan ushbu Oyatda tasvirlanganidekdir. Uning ta’siri ostida ular to‘g‘ri yura olmaydilar. Ular o‘z xatti-harakatlari yo‘lida egri so‘qmoqlar qiladilar. Biri, keyin yana boshqasi, u yoqdan bu yoqqa chayqaladi. Rabbimiz ularga buyuk rahm-shafqat bilan qaraydi. Ular haqiqat yo‘lini bilmaganlar. Ular ilmiy makr tuzuvchilardir, va ravshan ruhiy ko‘rish qobiliyati sababli yordam bera oladigan va berishi kerak bo‘lganlar ham o‘zlari aldanib, yovuz ishni qo‘llab-quvvatlamoqdalar.”
“The developments of these last days will soon become decided. When these spiritualistic deceptions are revealed to be what they really are,—the secret workings of evil spirits,—those who have acted a part in them will become as men who have lost their minds.
“Bu oxirgi kunlardagi voqealar tez orada hal qiluvchi tus oladi. Bu spiritistik aldovlar aslida nima ekani oshkor bo‘lganda,—ya’ni yovuz ruhlarning maxfiy faoliyati ekani ayon bo‘lganda,—ularda ishtirok etganlar aqlini yo‘qotgan odamlardek bo‘lib qoladilar.
“‘Wherefore the Lord saith, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their hearts far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men therefore, behold I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, who seeth us, and who knoweth us? Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay; for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it. He had no understanding?’
“‘Shuning uchun Rabbiy aytadi: Bu xalq Menga og‘zi bilan yaqinlashadi, lablari bilan Meni hurmat qiladi, ammo yuragini Mendan uzoqlashtirgan, Mendan qo‘rqishi esa insoniy qoidalar bilan o‘rgatilgandir. Shuning uchun, mana, Men bu xalq orasida ajoyib bir ishni, ha, ajoyib bir ish va mo‘jizani amalga oshiraman; chunki ularning donolarining donoligi halok bo‘ladi, fahmli kishilarining idroki esa yashiriladi. Rabbiydan o‘z maslahatini chuqur yashirmoqchi bo‘lganlarning holiga voy! Ularning ishlari zulmatda bo‘ladi va ular: “Bizni kim ko‘radi? Bizni kim biladi?” deydilar. Albatta, sizlarning hamma narsani teskari aylantirishingiz kulolning loyidek hisoblanadi; axir yaratilgan narsa uni yaratgan zot haqida: “U meni yaratmagan”, deydimi? Yoki shakllantirilgan narsa uni shakllantirgan zot haqida: “Uning aqli yo‘q edi”, deydimi?’”
“It is presented to me that in our experience we have been and are meeting this very condition of things. Men who have had great light and wonderful privileges have taken the word of leaders who think themselves wise, who have been greatly favored and blessed by the Lord, but who have taken themselves out of the hands of God and placed themselves in the ranks of the enemy. The world is to be flooded with specious fallacies. One human mind, accepting these fallacies, will work upon other human minds, who have been turning the precious evidence of God’s truth into a lie. These men will be deceived by fallen angels, when they should have stood as faithful guardians, watching for souls, as they that must give an account. They have laid down the weapons of their warfare, and have given heed to seducing spirits. They make of no effect the counsel of God and set aside his warnings and reproofs, and are positively on Satan’s side, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils.
“Menga ayon etildiki, tajribamizda biz aynan mana shunday holatga duch kelganmiz va duch kelmoqdamiz. Ulug‘ nur va ajoyib imtiyozlarga ega bo‘lgan odamlar o‘zlarini dono deb biladigan rahbarlarning so‘zini qabul qildilar; bular Rabbiy tomonidan nihoyatda marhamatlangan va barakalangan bo‘lsalar-da, o‘zlarini Xudoning qo‘lidan chiqarib, dushman safiga qo‘shib qo‘yganlardir. Dunyo jozibador soxta aqidalar bilan to‘lib-toshirilishi kerak. Ana shu soxta aqidalarni qabul qilgan bir insoniy aql boshqa insoniy onglar ustida ta’sir ko‘rsatadi; bu onglar esa Xudoning haqiqatiga doir qimmatli dalillarni yolg‘onga aylantirib kelganlar. Bu odamlar qulagan farishtalar tomonidan aldanadilar, holbuki ular hisob berishlari lozim bo‘lgan kishilar sifatida jonlar uchun hushyor turib, sodiq qo‘riqchilar bo‘lib turishlari kerak edi. Ular o‘z jangining qurollarini tashlab qo‘ydilar va aldovchi ruhlarga quloq soldilar. Ular Xudoning maslahatini kuchsiz qiladi, Uning ogohlantirishlari va tanbehlarini chetga suradi va mutlaqo Shayton tomonida turib, aldovchi ruhlar va jinlar ta’limotlariga quloq soladilar.”
“Spiritual drunkenness is now upon men who ought not to be staggering as men under the influence of strong drink. Crimes and irregularities, fraud, deceit, and unfair dealing fill the world, in accordance with the teaching of the leader who rebelled in the heavenly courts.
“Ruhiy mastlik endi kuchli ichimlik ta’siri ostidagi odamlarday gandiraklamasliklari lozim bo‘lgan insonlar ustiga kelgan. Jinoyatlar va tartibsizliklar, firibgarlik, aldov va insofsiz muomala osmondagi saroylarda isyon ko‘targan boshliqning ta’limotiga muvofiq ravishda dunyoni to‘ldirmoqda.
“History is to be repeated. I could specify what will be in the near future, but the time is not yet. The forms of the dead will appear, through the cunning device of Satan, and many will link up with the one who loveth and maketh a lie. I warn our people that right among us some will turn away from the faith, and give heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils, and by them the truth will be evil spoken of.” Battle Creek Letters, 123–125.
“Tarix takrorlanadi. Yaqin kelajakda nima bo‘lishini aniq ayta olardim, ammo vaqti hali kelgani yo‘q. O‘liklarning qiyofalari Shaytonning hiylakorona vositasi orqali namoyon bo‘ladi, va ko‘plar yolg‘onni sevuvchi va qiluvchi bilan birlashadilar. Men xalqimizni ogohlantiraman: aynan oramizda ba’zilar imondan qaytib, aldoqchi ruhlar va jinlarning ta’limotlariga quloq tutadilar, va ular tufayli haqiqat yomonlanadi.” Battle Creek Letters, 123–125.
All the prophets, including Isaiah and Sister White are identifying the last days. In these days the leaders of Adventism “are positively on Satan’s side, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils.” Sister White sets forth a prediction when she says, “When these spiritualistic deceptions are revealed to be what they really are,—the secret workings of evil spirits,—those who have acted a part in them will become as men who have lost their minds.” The leadership of Adventism will become as men who have lost their minds, at the point in the history of the last days when their drunkenness is revealed to be “the secret workings of evil spirits.”
Barcha payg‘ambarlar, shu jumladan Ishayo va Opa Uayt, oxirgi kunlarni ko‘rsatmoqdalar. Bu kunlarda Adventizmning rahbarlari “butunlay Shayton tomonidadirlar, aldovchi ruhlar va jinlarning ta’limotlariga quloq solmoqdalar.” Opa Uayt quyidagicha deganida bir bashoratni bayon qiladi: “Ushbu spiritistik aldovlar aslida nima ekani — yovuz ruhlarning yashirin faoliyati — oshkor bo‘lganda, ularda qatnashganlar aqlini yo‘qotgan odamlar kabi bo‘lib qoladilar.” Adventizmning rahbariyati, oxirgi kunlar tarixining o‘sha nuqtasida — ularning mastligi “yovuz ruhlarning yashirin faoliyati” ekani oshkor bo‘lganda — aqlini yo‘qotgan odamlar kabi bo‘lib qoladi.
There is an unsealing of the work of the scornful men that rule the people in Jerusalem in the last days. That unsealing was illustrated in Miller’s dream, when Miller prayed and then there was a door opened. It takes place just before he closed his eyes for a moment, identifying the very end of the sealing process of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The opening of a door identifies a change of dispensations, and at that point the Laodicean movement of the third angel transitions into the Philadelphian movement of the third angel.
Oxirgi kunlarda Quddusdagi xalq ustidan hukmronlik qiladigan masxarachi odamlarning ishi ochib tashlanadi. O‘sha ochib tashlanish Millerning tushida tasvirlangan edi: Miller ibodat qilganida, so‘ng bir eshik ochildi. Bu uning ko‘zlarini bir lahzaga yumishidan sal oldin sodir bo‘ladi, bu esa bir yuz qirq to‘rt mingning muhrlanish jarayonining ayni eng oxirini ko‘rsatadi. Eshikning ochilishi taqsimotlarning almashinishini bildiradi, va o‘sha nuqtada uchinchi farishtaning Laodikiya harakati uchinchi farishtaning Filadelfiya harakatiga o‘tadi.
In the passage in Isaiah, there is a summary of the evil work of the drunkards of Ephraim, who are the men who “should have stood as faithful guardians.” The summary is expressed as, “‘Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay; for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it. He had no understanding?’”
Ishayo kitobidagi ushbu parçada Efrayimning mayxoʻrlarining yovuz ishi qisqacha bayon qilingan; ular “sodiq qoʻriqchilar sifatida turishlari kerak boʻlgan” odamlardir. Bu xulosa shunday ifodalangan: “Albatta, sizlarning hamma narsani ostin-ustin qilishingiz kulolning loyidek sanaladi; axir, yaratilgan narsa uni yaratgan Zot haqida: U meni yaratmagan, deydimi? Yoki shakl berilgan narsa oʻziga shakl bergan Zot haqida: Uning fahmi yoʻq edi, deydimi?”
Miller’s identification of “the daily,” as either the religion of paganism or pagan Rome is ultimately a symbol of Satan, for Satan and pagan Rome are both represented as the dragon.
Millerning “kundalik”ni yo butparastlik dini, yo butparast Rim deb talqin qilishi, pirovardida Shaytonning ramzidir, chunki Shayton ham, butparast Rim ham ajdaho sifatida tasvirlangan.
“Thus while the dragon, primarily, represents Satan, it is, in a secondary sense, a symbol of pagan Rome.” The Great Controversy, 439.
“Shunday qilib, ajdaho, avvalo, Shaytonni ifodalasa-da, ikkilamchi ma’noda u butparast Rimning ramzidir.” Buyuk kurash, 439.
Speaking of the men who rule Jerusalem in the last days, Sister White states: “Some are becoming imbued with the darkness that prevails, and are setting the truth aside for error. The day pointed out by prophecy is come. Jesus Christ is not understood. Jesus Christ is to them a fable.” In 1901, a leader of Adventism from Germany began to introduce apostate Protestantism’s false view of “the daily” in the book of Daniel. That view identifies that “the daily” represents Christ’s sanctuary work, or some variation of that thought. I say some variation for there have been different emphasis placed upon the falsehood through the history that followed 1901, but those false views always manifest a conclusion that “the daily” represents some type of Christ’s work.
Oxirgi kunlarda Quddusni boshqaradigan erkaklar haqida so‘z yuritar ekan, Opa Uayt shunday deydi: “Ba’zilar hukm surayotgan zulmatga singib bormoqdalar va haqiqatni xato uchun chetga surmoqdalar. Bashorat ko‘rsatgan kun keldi. Iso Masih tushunilmayapti. Iso Masih ular uchun bir afsonadir.” 1901-yilda Germaniyadan bo‘lgan Adventizm yetakchilaridan biri Doniyor kitobidagi “kundalik” haqidagi murtad protestantizmning soxta qarashini kiritishni boshladi. O‘sha qarashga ko‘ra, “kundalik” Masihning muqaddas maskandagi xizmatini, yoki shu fikrning qandaydir bir ko‘rinishini anglatadi. Men “qandaydir bir ko‘rinish” deyman, chunki 1901-yildan keyin kelgan tarix davomida bu yolg‘onga turli urg‘ular berilgan, ammo o‘sha soxta qarashlar doimo “kundalik” Masih ishining qandaydir bir turini ifodalaydi, degan xulosani namoyon qiladi.
The jewel that was the doctrine of “the daily,” which Miller identified as a satanic symbol, in the Adventism of the last days, is a symbol of Christ. When introduced in 1901, very few accepted the view that “the daily” was a symbol of Christ, and not a symbol of Satan, but by the 1930’s the jewel of the doctrine of “the daily,” which Miller had dug out of the vein of truth found in 2 Thessalonians, chapter two, was rejected as had the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six been rejected in 1863. Somewhere in the history of 1863 unto the 1930’s Adventism had changed leaders, without recognizing it.
Miller shaytoniy ramz deb aniqlagan “doimiy” haqidagi ta’limot bo‘lgan gavhar, oxirgi kunlar Adventizmida Masihning ramzidir. U 1901 yilda kiritilganida, “doimiy” Shaytonning ramzi emas, balki Masihning ramzi degan qarashni juda ozchilik qabul qildi; biroq 1930-yillarga kelib, Miller 2 Salonikaliklarga, ikkinchi bobda topilgan haqiqat tomiridan qazib olgan “doimiy” ta’limotining gavhari, xuddi Levitik yigirma oltidagi “yetti vaqt” 1863 yilda rad etilganidek, rad etildi. 1863 yildan 1930-yillargacha bo‘lgan tarixning qayeridir bir joyida Adventizm buni anglamagan holda o‘z yetakchilarini almashtirgan edi.
“Brethren, I see your peril, and again I ask, Do you who err make any effort to correct the wrong? Souls may be stumbling along, walking in darkness, because you have not made straight paths for your feet. If you are in positions of trust, I appeal the more earnestly to you, for your own souls’ sake and for the sake of those who look to you as guides, repent before God for every mistake made, and confess your error.
“Birodarlar, men sizning xavf ostida ekaningizni ko‘ryapman va yana so‘rayman: adashayotgan sizlar bu noto‘g‘rilikni tuzatish uchun biror sa’y-harakat qilayapsizlarmi? Siz oyoqlaringiz uchun yo‘llarni tekis qilmaganingiz sababli, jonlar qoqilib, zulmatda yurayotgan bo‘lishi mumkin. Agar sizlarga ishonib topshirilgan lavozimlarda bo‘lsangiz, o‘z jonlaringiz manfaati uchun ham, sizga yo‘l ko‘rsatuvchi sifatida qaraydiganlarning manfaati uchun ham sizlarga yanada jiddiyroq iltijo qilaman: qilingan har bir xato uchun Xudo oldida tavba qiling va xatoyingizni e’tirof eting.”
“If you indulge stubbornness of heart, and through pride and self-righteousness do not confess your faults, you will be left subject to Satan’s temptations. If when the Lord reveals your errors you do not repent or make confession, his providence will bring you over the ground again and again. You will be left to make mistakes of a similar character, you will continue to lack wisdom, and will call sin righteousness, and righteousness sin. The multitude of deceptions that will prevail in these last days will encircle you, and you will change leaders, and not know that you have done so.” Review and Herald, December 16, 1890.
“Agar siz yurakning qaysarligiga berilsangiz va mag‘rurlik hamda o‘zini oqlash tufayli o‘z ayblaringizni e’tirof etmasangiz, Shaytonning vasvasalariga tobe holda qoldirilasiz. Agar Rabbiy sizning xatolaringizni oshkor qilganda tavba qilmasangiz yoki e’tirof etmasangiz, Uning ilohiy inoyati sizni ayni o‘sha yo‘ldan qayta-qayta olib o‘tadi. Siz o‘xshash tabiatdagi xatolarga yo‘l qo‘yish holiga tashlab qo‘yilasiz, hikmatdan mahrum bo‘lib qolishda davom etasiz va gunohni solihlik, solihlikni esa gunoh deb ataysiz. Bu oxirgi kunlarda ustun keladigan ko‘plab aldovlar sizni qurshab oladi, va siz rahbarlarni almashtirasiz, biroq buni qilganingizni bilmay qolasiz.” Review and Herald, 1890-yil 16-dekabr.
The scornful men that rule over the people of Jerusalem, who are men “in positions of trust,” will “call sin righteousness and righteousness sin,” and “Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay; for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it. He had no understanding?’” In the progressive rebellion over the four generations of Adventism, those who are positions of trust change leaders, and don’t know it. They do not know it, for they progressively and consistently rejected evidence of their errors. In that progressive rebellion “the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.”
Quddus xalqining ustidan hukmronlik qilayotgan, “ishonchli lavozimlarda” bo‘lgan masxarago‘y kishilar “gunohni solihlik, solihlikni esa gunoh deb ataydilar”, va “Albatta, narsalarni ostin-ustin qilishingiz kulolning loyiday sanaladi; axir yasalgan narsa o‘zini yasaganga: U meni yaratmagan, deydimi? Yoki shakllantirilgan narsa o‘zini shakllantirganga: Uda aql-idrok yo‘q edi, deydimi?” Adventizmning to‘rt avlodi davomidagi izchil isyonda, ishonchli lavozimlarda bo‘lganlar rahbarlarini almashtiradilar, ammo buni bilmaydilar. Ular buni bilmaydilar, chunki ular o‘z xatolarining dalillarini bosqichma-bosqich va muntazam ravishda rad etib kelganlar. O‘sha izchil isyonda “donolarining donoligi halok bo‘ladi, oqillarining fahm-farosati esa yashirin bo‘ladi.”
They will turn things upside down, and call sin righteousness and righteousness sin. The symbol of this rebellion is the doctrine of “the daily,” which for Miller was a satanic symbol, and which Adventism today identifies as a symbol of Christ. What once was the anchor that established the framework of William Miller’s prophetic applications, is now become a symbol of the drunkenness of the scornful men that rule over the people of Jerusalem. The symbolism associated with “the daily,” in the book of Daniel shone bright as the sun when recognized in Miller’s casket at the beginning of Adventism, but in the last days that truth shines ten times brighter, for the number ten is a symbol of a test, and for ancient Israel the tenth test was the final test.
Ular hamma narsani ostin-ustin qiladilar va gunohni solihlik, solihlikni esa gunoh deb ataydilar. Bu isyonning ramzi “doimiy” haqidagi ta’limotdir; Miller uchun u shaytoniy ramz bo‘lgan, bugungi Adventizm esa uni Masihning ramzi deb biladi. Bir vaqtlar Uilyam Millerning bashoratli tatbiqlarining tuzilishini barpo etgan langar bo‘lgan narsa, endi Quddus xalqi ustidan hukmronlik qilayotgan masxarachi odamlarning mastligining ramziga aylangan. Doniyor kitobidagi “doimiy” bilan bog‘liq ramziylik Adventizmning boshida Millerning qutisida tanib olinganida quyoshdek porlagan edi, ammo oxirgi kunlarda o‘sha haqiqat o‘n baravar yorqinroq porlaydi, chunki o‘n soni sinovning ramzidir, qadimgi Isroil uchun esa o‘ninchi sinov yakuniy sinov bo‘lgan.
Modern Pharisees have “attributed” “the works of Christ” “to satanic agencies” identifying paganism as “the holy power of God.”
Zamonaviy farziylar “Masihning ishlarini” “shaytoniy kuchlarga nisbat berdilar”, butparastlikni esa “Xudoning muqaddas qudrati” deb e’lon qildilar.
“The Pharisees sinned against the Holy Ghost. Their talent of speech was used to abuse the world’s Redeemer, and the recording angel wrote their words in the books of heaven. They attributed to satanic agencies the holy power of God, manifested in the works of Christ. They could not evade His wonderful works, or attribute them to natural causes, so they said, ‘They are the works of the devil.’ In unbelief they spoke of the Son of God as a human being. The works of healing done before them, works which no man had done or could do, were a manifestation of the power of God, but they charged Christ with being in league with hell. Stubborn, sullen, ironhearted, they determined to close their eyes to all evidence, and thus they committed the unpardonable sin.” Manuscript Releases, volume 4, 360.
“Farziylar Muqaddas Ruhga qarshi gunoh qildilar. Ularning so‘zlash iste’dodi dunyoning Najotkorini tahqirlash uchun ishlatildi, va qayd etuvchi farishta ularning so‘zlarini osmon kitoblariga yozib qo‘ydi. Ular Masihning ishlarida namoyon bo‘lgan Xudoning muqaddas qudratini shaytoniy kuchlarga nisbat berdilar. Ular Uning ajoyib ishlaridan bo‘yin tovlay olmadilar yoki ularni tabiiy sabablar bilan izohlay olmadilar, shuning uchun: «Bular iblisning ishlaridir», dedilar. Imonsizlik ichida ular Xudoning O‘g‘li haqida oddiy inson sifatida gapirdilar. Ularning ko‘z o‘ngida qilingan shifo ishlari — hech bir inson qilmagan va qila olmaydigan ishlar — Xudoning qudratining namoyoni edi, biroq ular Masihni do‘zax bilan til biriktirganlikda aybladilar. O‘jar, qovog‘i soliq, temir yurak bo‘lgan holda, ular barcha dalillarga ko‘zlarini yumishga qaror qildilar va shu tariqa kechirilmas gunohni sodir etdilar.” Manuscript Releases, 4-jild, 360.
We will continue our consideration of the increase of knowledge, that was unsealed in the movement of the first angel, in the next article.
Birinchi farishtaning harakatida muhridan yechilgan bilimning ko‘payishini ko‘rib chiqishni keyingi maqolada davom ettiramiz.
