At the end of July, 2023, the voice in the wilderness began to cry unto the dead dry bones, as represented by Daniel going to Arioch and informing him that he understood the “secret.” Daniel in relation to Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah represent the Elijah messenger, and the Elijah message identifies that whether God’s people understand or accept it or not, they are already under a curse.

喺2023年7月底,曠野中嘅聲音開始向嗰啲枯乾嘅骸骨呼喊;呢件事由但以理去見亞略,並且通知佢話自己明白咗嗰個「奧祕」所預表。但以理連同哈拿尼雅、米沙利同亞撒利雅,乃係代表以利亞使者;而以利亞信息指出,無論上帝嘅子民明唔明白、接唔接受,佢哋都已經處於咒詛之下。

And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. Malachi 2:1, 2.

而家,祭司們哪,呢條誡命係畀你哋嘅。萬軍之耶和華話:你哋若不聽從,若不放在心上,將榮耀歸與我嘅名,我就必使咒詛臨到你哋,亦必咒詛你哋嘅福分;係呀,我已經咒詛咗佢哋,因為你哋並不放在心上。瑪拉基書 2:1, 2.

The “priests” of the last days, according to Peter, are the covenant people of God who were formerly not the covenant people of God. They are those who ate of the “hidden book” when the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen descended on September 11, 2001. Yet according to Malachi, they are cursed.

照彼得所言,末後日子嘅「祭司」,乃係神立約嘅子民;佢哋從前並唔係神立約嘅子民。佢哋就係嗰啲喺二〇〇一年九月十一日《啟示錄》第十八章嗰位大力天使降臨之時,喫咗「隱藏書卷」嘅人。然而,照瑪拉基所言,佢哋乃係受咒詛嘅。

If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious. To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. 1 Peter 2:3–10.

你們若嘗過主恩的滋味,就必如此。你們來到主面前,主乃是活石,固然被人所棄,卻是神所揀選、所寶貴的。你們也就像活石,被建造成為靈宮,作聖潔的祭司職分,藉着耶穌基督獻上靈祭,是神所悅納的。因為經上有記着說:「看哪,我把所揀選、所寶貴的房角石,安放在錫安;信靠他的人必不至於羞愧。」所以,對你們這信的人,他是寶貴的;但對那不順從的人,「建造的人所棄的石頭,已成了房角的頭塊石頭」,又說:「作了絆腳的石頭,跌人的磐石。」他們既不順從,就在道上絆跌;他們這樣,也是預定的。惟有你們是被揀選的族類,是有君尊的祭司,是聖潔的國度,是屬神的子民,要叫你們宣揚那召你們出黑暗、入奇妙光明者的美德。你們從前算不得子民,現在卻作了神的子民;從前未曾蒙憐憫,現在卻蒙了憐憫。彼得前書 2:3–10。

The “priests” of the last days are those who “have tasted that the Lord is good.” “In times past” they “were not a people, but now are the people of God.” They are those who have found the “living stone,” that was “disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious.” That stone is the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six, that the “builders” of the Millerite movement “disallowed” in 1863. The Millerite “builders” constructed a temple in the forty-six years from 1798 unto 1844, but they thereafter chose to reject the “increase of knowledge” upon the “seven times” that arrived in 1856.

末後的「祭司」,就是那些「嘗過主恩的滋味,便知道主是美善」的人。「從前」他們「算不得子民,現在卻作了神的子民。」他們乃是那些尋見了那「活石」的人;這石「固然是被人所棄的,卻是被神所揀選、所寶貴的。」那石就是《利未記》二十六章的「七倍」;這「七倍」乃是米勒派運動中的「建造的人」在1863年所「棄絕」的。米勒派的「建造的人」在1798年至1844年的四十六年間建造了一座聖殿;然而其後,他們卻選擇拒絕那於1856年臨到、關乎「七倍」之「知識增長」。

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. As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame. Hosea 4:6, 7.

我嘅民因無知識而滅亡;因你棄掉知識,我也必棄掉你,使你不再給我作祭司;你既忘記你神的律法,我也必忘記你的兒女。他們越發增多,就越發得罪我;因此,我必使他們的榮耀變為羞辱。何西阿書 4:6, 7。

The “priests” of the last days accepted the message of “seven times” when they were led back to the old paths of Adventism post-September 11, 2001. They tasted the message of the hidden book, and it was “precious.” Yet Malachi says the priests of the last days are “cursed”, and of course the “seven times” is a curse. They are under the curse of “seven times,” for they have repeated the sins of their fathers. Malachi says the priests profaned God’s name, by offering a “polluted offering”. That offering was the prediction of July 18, 2020.

末後日子嘅「祭司」,喺二○○一年九月十一日之後被帶返到復臨運動嘅古道之時,接受咗「七倍」嘅信息。佢哋嘗過隱藏之書嘅信息,而且呢信息乃係「寶貴」嘅。然而,瑪拉基話末後日子嘅祭司係「受咒詛」嘅;而「七倍」當然就係一個咒詛。佢哋處於「七倍」嘅咒詛之下,因為佢哋重複咗佢哋列祖嘅罪。瑪拉基話,祭司藉着獻上「污穢嘅供物」,褻瀆咗上帝嘅名。嗰個供物,就係對二○二○年七月十八日嘅預言。

For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the Lord is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible. Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the Lord of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the Lord. But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith the Lord of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen. And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it. And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the Lord of hosts. Malachi 1:11–2:4.

因為從日出之地直到日落之處,我的名必在列國中為大;在各處,人必奉我的名燒香,獻上潔淨的供物;因為我的名必在外邦中為大,萬軍之耶和華如此說。你們卻褻瀆了它,因你們說:耶和華的桌子是污穢的;其上的食物,就是祂的食物,是可藐視的。你們又說:看哪,這是何等厭煩的事!萬軍之耶和華說,你們竟嗤之以鼻。你們把被撕裂的、瘸腿的、有病的帶來,如此獻上供物;我豈可從你們手中悅納這供物呢?耶和華說。那行詭詐的當受咒詛;他群中有公的,許了願,卻向主獻上有殘疾之物;因為我是大君王,萬軍之耶和華說,我的名在外邦中是可畏的。如今,祭司啊,這誡命是給你們的。萬軍之耶和華說,你們若不聽從,若不放在心上,將榮耀歸給我的名,我就必使咒詛臨到你們,並咒詛你們的福分;我已經咒詛了,因你們不把這事放在心上。看哪,我必斥責你們的種子,又要把糞抹在你們臉上,就是你們嚴肅節期祭牲的糞;人必把你們與糞一同除去。你們便知道我傳這誡命給你們,是要使我與利未所立的約得以存立,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。瑪拉基書 1:11–2:4。

The covenant with Levi is the symbol of the Levites’ faithfulness in the image of the beast test in the rebellion of Aaron’s golden calf. The Levites in the book of Malachi, who are cleansed by the messenger of the covenant, are cleansed in order to offer “an offering” in righteousness. The offering is the message of Christ’s name, which is His character.

與利未所立的約,乃係象徵利未人喺亞倫金牛犢之叛逆中,於獸像之試驗裏所顯明嘅忠誠。瑪拉基書中嘅利未人,既被立約之使者潔淨,乃係為要按公義獻上「供物」。呢供物就係基督之名嘅信息,而呢名就係祂嘅品格。

“It is the darkness of misapprehension of God that is enshrouding the world. Men are losing their knowledge of His character. It has been misunderstood and misinterpreted. At this time a message from God is to be proclaimed, a message illuminating in its influence and saving in its power. His character is to be made known. Into the darkness of the world is to be shed the light of His glory, the light of His goodness, mercy, and truth.

「籠罩世界的,乃是對上帝誤解之黑暗。人正喪失對祂品格的認識。祂的品格一直被誤解、被曲解。此時必須宣告一個從上帝而來的信息,這信息在其影響上乃是啟迪人的,在其能力上乃是拯救人的。祂的品格必須被顯明。祂榮耀之光,就是祂良善、憐憫與真理之光,必須照射進入這世界的黑暗之中。

“This is the work outlined by the prophet Isaiah in the words, ‘O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God! Behold, the Lord God will come with strong hand, and His arm shall rule for Him; behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.’ Isaiah 40:9, 10.

「這就是先知以賽亞所概述的工作,正如他所說:『報好信息給錫安的啊,你要登高山;報好信息給耶路撒冷的啊,你要極力揚聲;揚聲,不要懼怕;對猶大的城邑說:看哪,你們的 神!看哪,主耶和華必大有能力而來,祂的膀臂必為祂掌權;看哪,祂的賞賜與祂同在,祂的報應在祂面前。』以賽亞書 40:9, 10。」

“Those who wait for the Bridegroom’s coming are to say to the people, ‘Behold your God.’ The last rays of merciful light, the last message of mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of His character of love. The children of God are to manifest His glory. In their own life and character they are to reveal what the grace of God has done for them.” Christ’s Object Lessons, 415.

「那些等候新郎來臨的人,要向眾民說:『看哪,你們的上帝。』憐憫之光最後的光輝,那要賜給世界最後的慈悲信息,乃是祂慈愛品格的啟示。上帝的兒女要彰顯祂的榮耀。他們要在自己的生活和品格上,顯明上帝的恩典為他們成就了甚麼。」《基督比喻實訓》,415。

Malachi’s priests offered an offering that corrupted God’s name. The offering represents a message, and the message of Nashville on July 18, 2020, was a corrupted offering. It was corrupted by the rebellion of disregarding the prophetic command that “there should be time no longer”, that was given by Christ himself in Revelation ten.

瑪拉基書中嘅祭司獻上一個敗壞神名嘅供物。呢個供物象徵一個信息,而納什維爾喺2020年7月18日所傳講嘅信息,就係一個敗壞咗嘅供物。佢因住悖逆、漠視基督親自在《啟示錄》第十章所賜下「不再有時日了」呢一項先知性命令,而成為敗壞。

And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer. Revelation 10:5, 6.

我所看見嗰位企喺海上同地上嘅天使,就向天舉起手來,指着嗰位活到永永遠遠、創造天和其中之物、地和其中之物、海和其中之物嘅主起誓,話不再有時日了。啟示錄 10:5, 6.

The “offering of righteousness” that is represented by the Levites in Malachi chapter three, is as an offering in the days of old, and it represents a message. The “former years” represent the purity of the message which produced the first disappointment in the Millerite history. The corrupted offering represents the corrupted message of July 18, 2020, yet it is still a parallel event.

瑪拉基書第三章中由利未人所表徵的「公義的供物」,乃是如古時之供物,並且它表徵一個信息。「先前的年日」表徵那曾在米勒派歷史中帶來第一次失望之信息的純正。那被敗壞了的供物,表徵二〇二〇年七月十八日那被敗壞了的信息;然而,這仍然是一個平行的事件。

And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years. Malachi 3:3, 4.

祂必坐下,如煉淨銀子的,又如潔淨人的;祂必潔淨利未的子孫,熬煉他們像金銀一樣,使他們可以公義獻供物給耶和華。那時,猶大和耶路撒冷所獻的供物,必蒙耶和華悅納,如古時之日、上古之年一樣。瑪拉基書 3:3, 4.

The “curse” that is identified in Malachi identifies a test of an acknowledgement of what Elijah represents. Those of us that are now awakening must understand that the reality of the curse of “seven times” has been fulfilled upon us in the rebellion we manifested in making the sinful prediction of July 18, 2020. We must also once again decide what prophetic methodology we choose to eat. Two witnesses to this fact, and there are others, can be found in Malachi’s presentation of the Elijah to come, and also from Elijah’s own history. Elijah clearly identified that there would only be one correct message and methodology.

《瑪拉基書》所指出的那個「咒詛」,乃是在辨識一項考驗,就是對以利亞所代表之事物的承認。現今正在覺醒的我們,必須明白:「七倍」咒詛的現實,已在我們身上應驗,這乃是我們因作出二〇二〇年七月十八日那個有罪的預測而顯出的悖逆。我們也必須再次決定,我們要選擇吃哪一種先知性的 methodology。關於這一點,有兩個見證——而且還有其他見證——可以在瑪拉基對那將要來之以利亞的陳述中找到,也可以從以利亞本人的歷史中找到。以利亞清楚指出,只會有一個正確的信息與 methodology。

And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. 1 Kings 17:1.

基列寄居者中的提斯比人以利亞對亞哈說:「我所侍立嘅永生耶和華——以色列嘅神起誓,呢幾年若非照我嘅話,必唔降露,亦唔落雨。」列王紀上 17:1

Malachi identified a “curse” that God’s priests are under in the period when the final Elijah appears in connection with a curse associated with God’s tithe. The “curse” of the tithe in Malachi, represents a decision on the part of the people of God, for in order to remove the curse they are already under they must decide where and what is the “storehouse”.

瑪拉基指出,當末後的以利亞顯現之時,神的祭司正處於一個「咒詛」之下;這是與神的十一奉獻相關的一個咒詛。瑪拉基書中有關十一奉獻的「咒詛」,乃代表神子民所必須作出的一項決定;因為要除去他們現已置身其中的咒詛,他們就必須決定何處、以及何者才是那「倉庫」。

Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in former years. And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts. For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts. Malachi 3:1–11.

看哪,我要差遣我的使者,在我前面預備道路;你們所尋求的主,必忽然來到他的殿;立約的使者,就是你們所喜悅的,看看,他必來到,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。只是,他來的日子,誰能當得起呢?他顯現的時候,誰能站立得住呢?因為他如煉淨之人的火,又如漂布之人的鹼;他必坐下如煉淨銀子的,潔淨人的銀子;他必潔淨利未的子孫,熬煉他們像金銀一樣,使他們憑公義獻供物給耶和華。那時,猶大和耶路撒冷所獻的供物,必蒙耶和華悅納,如古時之日,又如上古之年。我必臨近你們,施行審判;我必速速作見證,敵擋行邪術的、犯姦淫的、起假誓的、虧負雇工之工價的、欺壓寡婦與孤兒的、屈枉寄居者之權利的,以及不敬畏我的,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。因為我耶和華是不改變的,所以你們雅各之子沒有滅亡。自你們列祖的日子以來,你們常常偏離我的律例而不遵守。你們要歸向我,我就歸向你們,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。你們卻說:我們在哪一方面當歸向你呢?人豈可搶奪神呢?然而你們竟搶奪我。你們卻說:我們在哪一方面搶奪你呢?就是在當納的十分之一和當獻的供物上。你們這通國的人,都搶奪我,所以你們被咒詛所咒詛。你們要把當納的十分之一,全然送入倉庫,使我家中有糧,以此試試我,這是萬軍之耶和華說的,看我是否不為你們敞開天上的窗戶,傾福與你們,甚至無處可容。我必為你們斥責那吞吃者,不容牠毀壞你們地上的出產;你們田間的葡萄樹,也不致未到時候就落果,這是萬軍之耶和華說的。瑪拉基書 3:1–11。

The Lord does not change, nor does he change methodology. Whatever the “curse” may or may not be, that is represented by Malachi’s curse of “tithe”, the tithe is to be brought into the storehouse, for the purpose of having “meat” in God’s house. That fact demands that a decision be made as to what the “storehouse” is, and what was the food represented by William Miller in the movement of the first angel, which typified the food to be eaten in the movement of the third angel? One of the symbols of that food is “rain” and “dew”.

主並不改變,祂所採用的方法亦不改變。無論那「咒詛」究竟是甚麼或不是甚麼,瑪拉基所提到以「十一奉獻」為表徵的咒詛,乃是指出十一奉獻必須帶進倉庫裏,為要使神的殿中有「糧」。這一事實要求人必須作出判定:究竟甚麼是「倉庫」;而在第一位天使信息的運動中,由威廉・米勒所代表的食物,又是甚麼,並且這食物乃是預表第三位天使信息運動中所當喫的食物?那食物其中一個象徵就是「雨」與「露」。

Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: Because I will publish the name of the Lord: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Deuteronomy 32:1–4.

諸天啊,你們要側耳,我要說話;大地啊,你要聽我口中的言語。我的教訓要如雨降下;我的言語要如露滴瀝,如細雨降在嫩草之上,如甘霖灑在青草之間;因我要宣告耶和華的名:你們要將尊榮歸與我們的 神。祂是磐石,祂的作為完全;因祂一切的道都是公正;祂是誠實無偽的 神,公平正直。申命記 32:1–4。

Did Elijah truly mean what he said to Ahab? Did he actually mean that in the last days, when the perfect fulfillment of the Elijah movement and message occurs, that “there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word?” Does the “rain” that Elijah speaks of being withheld, except at his word, align with the “rain” that Malachi promises as a blessing?

以利亞對阿哈所講嘅話,係咪真係佢本意所在?佢係咪真係意思係話,喺末後嘅日子,當以利亞運動同信息達到完全應驗之時,「這幾年我若不禱告,必不降露,不下雨」?以利亞所講、除非照住佢嘅話就被止住嘅「雨」,係咪同瑪拉基所應許作為祝福嘅「雨」彼此相符呢?

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3:10.

「你哋要將當納嘅十分之一,全然送入倉庫,使我家中有糧;萬軍之耶和華話:你哋以此試試我,睇我會唔會為你哋敞開天上嘅窗戶,傾福與你哋,甚至無處可容。」瑪拉基書 3:10。

And does the “curse” of the unsanctified “offering” of the “priests”, and the misuse of “tithe” that has already been brought about, also represent the “curse” of the “seven times”?

而未成聖之「祭司」所獻那受「咒詛」的「供物」,以及那已經造成之對「十分之一」的誤用,是否也代表了那「七倍」的「咒詛」?

At the end of July, 2023, we began to publish articles that are essentially a repetition of the message found in the series of studies called Habakkuk’s Tables. The difference in the current presentation is that after July 18, 2020, the Lord began to place some of the old teachings in a new light.

到咗2023年7月底,我哋開始發表一啲文章;其本質上,乃係重述嗰一系列名為《Habakkuk’s Tables》之研讀中所見嘅信息。現今呢種表述方式之所以有所不同,乃在於自2020年7月18日之後,主開始將某啲舊有教導置於一種新嘅光照之下。

He began to open things up that appeared to me to be profound, but I was personally out of touch and unwilling to be in touch with the work I had previously been given to accomplish. From July 19, 2020, I understood that the prediction of the previous day was wrong, and that I was personally more responsible for that sinful prediction and its horrible aftermath than any other person.

佢開始將一啲喺我睇來似乎極其深奧嘅事向我啟開;但我自己卻與我先前所蒙交託要完成嘅工作脫節,並且不願意與之接軌。自2020年7月19日起,我明白到前一日嘅預測係錯誤嘅,而就嗰個有罪嘅預測及其可怕後果而言,我個人所負嘅責任,比任何其他人都更大。

Then in July of 2023, I was overwhelmed with a conviction, that in spite of my complete failure as a leader of God’s movement of the third angel, I should at least begin to write out what I had come to understand since July of 2020. I determined to put into writing what had been opened up to me since the sin of July 18, 2020, and then place it into the public record, before I was laid to rest.

其後,到了2023年7月,我被一種強烈的確信所壓倒:儘管我作為神第三位天使運動的領袖,已經徹底失敗,我至少也應當開始把自2020年7月以來我所明白到的事寫下來。我決意要將自2020年7月18日那宗罪以來向我揭示的一切訴諸文字,然後在我被安葬之前,將之存入公開紀錄。

In the three months since July, there are over seventy countries around the world that are now following these articles. Yes, some are no doubt following for unholy purposes and intent, but not all. We are on the verge of turning on a program that will place these articles into all the major languages of planet earth, for at this point, those seventy-plus countries are forced to consider these truths in only the English language.

自七月以來嘅三個月之內,現時全世界已有超過七十個國家跟進呢啲文章。誠然,其中有啲毫無疑問係出於唔聖潔嘅目的同意圖而跟進,但並非全部皆然。我哋正處於啟動一項計劃嘅邊緣,呢項計劃將會把呢啲文章譯成地球上所有主要語言;因為到目前為止,呢七十多個國家都只能以英文嚟思量呢啲真理。

We are already working to help some around the globe, that do not have the ways and means to do much with these truths, and I wonder if Malachi’s “storehouse”, that has a defined purpose of providing “food” in God’s house, may not be referring to the work of spreading the truth that has been proceeding from these articles since July of 2023?

我哋而家已經正喺努力幫助全球各地一啲冇乜途徑同資源去善用呢啲真理嘅人;而我不禁想到,瑪拉基書所講嘅「倉庫」,其明確目的乃係喺神嘅殿中供應「糧食」,會唔會正係指緊自2023年7月以來,藉住呢啲文章持續推展真理嘅工作呢?

We will begin our consideration of Daniel chapter three in the next article.

我哋將會喺下一篇文章開始探討《但以理書》第三章。

“We are living in a special period of this earth’s history. A great work must be done in a very short time, and every Christian is to act a part in sustaining this work. God is calling for men who will consecrate themselves to the work of soulsaving. When we begin to comprehend what a sacrifice Christ made in order to save a perishing world, there will be seen a mighty wrestling to save souls. Oh, that all our churches might see and realize the infinite sacrifice of Christ!

「我哋正活喺呢個世界歷史上一個特別嘅時期。喺極短嘅時間之內,必須完成一項偉大嘅工作,而每一個基督徒都要擔當一分責任,去維持呢項工作。上帝而家正呼召一班人,願意將自己分別為聖,獻身於拯救靈魂嘅工作。當我哋開始領悟基督為咗拯救一個將亡嘅世界而作出何等大嘅犧牲,就必定會見到一場為拯救靈魂而發出嘅強烈奮鬥。噢,願我哋所有教會都能看見並體會基督無限嘅犧牲!」

“In visions of the night, representations passed before me of a great reformatory movement among God’s people. Many were praising God. The sick were healed, and other miracles were wrought. A spirit of intercession was seen, even as was manifested before the great Day of Pentecost. Hundreds and thousands were seen visiting families and opening before them the word of God. Hearts were convicted by the power of the Holy Spirit, and a spirit of genuine conversion was manifest. On every side doors were thrown open to the proclamation of the truth. The world seemed to be lightened with the heavenly influence. Great blessings were received by the true and humble people of God. I heard voices of thanksgiving and praise, and there seemed to be a reformation such as we witnessed in 1844.

「喺夜間嘅異象中,我見到一場喺上帝子民當中展開嘅重大改革運動嘅景象從我面前經過。好多人都喺度讚美上帝。病人得醫治,亦有其他神蹟行出嚟。又見到一種代求嘅靈,正如喺偉大五旬節之日之前所彰顯嘅一樣。又見到成百上千嘅人探訪家庭,向佢哋闡明上帝嘅聖言。人心因聖靈嘅能力而知罪,一種真正悔改歸正嘅靈顯明出嚟。到處都有門向真理嘅宣講敞開。世界似乎因天上嘅感化而得照亮。真誠謙卑嘅上帝子民領受咗極大嘅福氣。我聽見感謝同讚美嘅聲音,並且似乎有一場改革出現,正如我哋喺1844年所見證過嘅一樣。」

“Yet some refused to be converted. They were not willing to walk in God’s way, and when, in order that the work of God might be advanced, calls were made for freewill offerings, some clung selfishly to their earthly possessions. These covetous ones became separated from the company of believers.

「然而,有啲人拒絕悔改歸正。佢哋唔願意行喺上帝嘅道路中;而且,當為咗推進上帝嘅工作而呼籲人獻上甘心樂意嘅供物之時,有啲人自私噉緊抓住自己屬世嘅財物。呢啲貪戀財利嘅人,就同信徒嘅群體分離咗。」

“The judgments of God are in the earth, and, under the influence of the Holy Spirit, we must give the message of warning that He has entrusted to us. We must give this message quickly, line upon line, precept upon precept. Men will soon be forced to great decisions, and it is our duty to see that they are given an opportunity to understand the truth, that they may take their stand intelligently on the right side. The Lord calls upon His people to labor—labor earnestly and wisely—while probation lingers.” Testimonies, volume 9, 126.

「神嘅審判正在地上;而我哋喺聖靈嘅感動之下,必須傳出祂所託付畀我哋嘅警告信息。我哋必須迅速傳揚呢個信息,一行一行,一誡又一誡。人好快就要被迫作出重大嘅抉擇,而我哋嘅本分,就係要確保佢哋有機會明白真理,好叫佢哋能夠有見識噉站喺正確嘅一邊。當恩典時期尚在延續之際,主呼召祂嘅子民作工——懇切而有智慧噉作工。」《教會證言》卷九,126頁。
