As we return to identify the hidden history of verse forty it seems prudent to first review the basics of the first four articles of this series. The first of four articles in this series presented a prophetic interpretation, portraying Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah (and Alpha and Omega) who unseals portions of Daniel chapter eleven at pivotal moments to direct the final reform movement of the 144,000. It identifies that the history of the first and second angels aligns with the history of the third angel’s message, thus identifying that in 1989, (126 years after the 1863 Adventist rebellion), the Lion unsealed Daniel 11:40–45. Those unsealed verses trace the papacy’s 1798 deadly wound, its healing through a threefold union of a dragon, beast, and false prophet leading on to Armageddon at “the glorious holy mountain” of verse forty-five. As the one hundred and forty-four thousand movement nears the soon coming Sunday law in the United States, the hidden history of verse 40 (spanning 1989 to that Sunday law) began to be unsealed in July, 2023.

Njengoba sibuyela ekuboneni umlando ofihlekile wevesi lamashumi amane, kubonakala kuwukuhlakanipha ukuthi kuqala sibuyekeze izisekelo zezihloko ezine zokuqala zalolu chungechunge. Esokuqala kwezine zalezi zihloko kulolu chungechunge sethule ukuhunyushwa kwesiprofetho, siveza uKristu njengeNgonyama yesizwe sakwaJuda (kanye no-Alfa no-Omega) ovula izimpawu ezingxenyeni zikaDaniyeli isahluko seshumi nanye ngezikhathi ezibucayi ukuze aqondise umnyakazo wokugcina wokuvuselelwa wabayi-144,000. Sibonisa ukuthi umlando wengelosi yokuqala nowesibili uyahambisana nomlando wombiko wengelosi yesithathu, ngaleyo ndlela sikhomba ukuthi ngo-1989, (eminyakeni eyi-126 emva kokuhlubuka kwama-Adventist kwango-1863), iNgonyama yavula izimpawu zikaDaniyeli 11:40–45. Lawo mavesi avuliwe alandelela inxeba elibulalayo lobupapa lango-1798, ukuphulukiswa kwalo ngobunye obuphindwe kathathu bukadrako, besilo, nomprofethi wamanga, okuholela kuze kufike e-Armagedoni “entabeni ekhazimulayo engcwele” yevesi lamashumi amane nanhlanu. Njengoba umnyakazo wabayi-144,000 usondela emthethweni weSonto ozayo maduze e-United States, umlando ofihlekile wevesi 40 (osukela ku-1989 kuze kube yilowo mthetho weSonto) waqala ukuvulwa izimpawu zawo ngoJulayi, 2023.

Drawing on Ellen White’s commentary that the portion of the unsealed book of Daniel which related to the last days produces an “increase of knowledge” that prepares a people to stand. “Oil” is identified as the Holy Spirit, divine messages and character in the ten virgin’s parable. The unsealing triggered the threefold testing process of Daniel 12:10, where many are “purified, made white, and tried.” The history represents several prophetic points when prophecy was unsealed beginning with 1989, September 11, 2001 and July, 2023. Those various unsealing’s represent a period from 1989 unto 9/11, the period of 9/11 unto the soon coming Sunday law, and the period of the tarrying time from July 18, 2020 unto December 31, 2023 when the Midnight Cry message is progressively unsealed unto the Sunday law.

Ethatha ekuphawuleni kuka-Ellen White ukuthi ingxenye yencwadi kaDaniyeli eyay ingakavulwa, ehlobene nezinsuku zokugcina, ikhiqiza “ukwanda kolwazi” olulungiselela abantu ukuba bame. “Amafutha” aboniswa njengoMoya oNgcwele, imiyalezo yobunkulunkulu, kanye nesimilo emfanekisweni wezintombi eziyishumi. Lokho kuvulwa kwabangela inqubo yokuvivinywa ephindwe kathathu kaDaniyeli 12:10, lapho abaningi “behlanjululwa, benziwe mhlophe, futhi balingwe.” Lo mlando umelela amaphuzu amaningana esiprofetho lapho isiprofetho savulwa khona, kuqalwa ngo-1989, ngoSepthemba 11, 2001, nangoJulayi, 2023. Lokho kuvulwa okuhlukahlukene kumelela isikhathi esisukela ku-1989 kuze kube u-9/11, isikhathi sika-9/11 kuze kube umthetho weSonto ozofika maduzane, kanye nesikhathi sokulibala esisukela kuJulayi 18, 2020 kuze kube nguDisemba 31, 2023 lapho umlayezo weSikhalo Saphakathi Kwamabili uvulwa kancane kancane kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto.

The awakening of the candidates to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand, represented by Ezekiel 37’s dry bones and Revelation eleven’s two witnesses who stand when filled with the Spirit is accomplished by the unsealing. If God’s people fail to awaken to this “precious light” showing perils like the papal power and Sunday law, heresies sift them (separating chaff from wheat). Earlier prophetic waymarks such as the 1888 Blair Bill and the Patriot Act are identified as prophetic warnings. The article identifies that all prior lines of prophetic history represented within Daniel chapter eleven repeats in verses 40-45. The article identifies that the image of the beast is formed first in the United States and then in the world as typified by 321 and the first Sunday law, followed by the global image of the beast typified by 538 as Michael stands up and probation closes.

Ukuvuka kwalabo abakhethwayo ukuba babe phakathi kwenkulungwane eyikhulu namashumi amane nane nane ezinkulungwane, okufanekiswa ngamathambo omile kaHezekeli 37 nangofakazi ababili beSambulo isahluko 11 abama lapho begcwaliswa ngoMoya, kufezwa ngokuvulwa kwezimpawu. Uma abantu bakaNkulunkulu behluleka ukuvukela kulokhu “kukhanya okuyigugu” okubonisa izingozi ezinjengamandla obupapa nomthetho weSonto, izimfundiso ezingamanga ziyabahlunga (zihlukanisa amakhoba nokolweni). Izimpawu zangaphambili zesiprofetho ezinjengoMthethosivivinywa kaBlair ka-1888 kanye ne-Patriot Act zikhonjiswa njengezexwayiso zesiprofetho. Lesi sihloko sikhomba ukuthi yonke imigqa yangaphambili yomlando wesiprofetho emelwe esahlukweni 11 sikaDaniyeli iyaphindwa emavesini 40-45. Lesi sihloko sikhomba ukuthi umfanekiso wesilo uqale ukwakheka e-United States bese kamuva emhlabeni, njengoba kufanekiswa ngu-321 nomthetho wokuqala weSonto, kulandelwe umfanekiso wesilo womhlaba wonke ofanekiswa ngu-538 lapho uMikayeli esukuma khona nokuphela kwesikhathi somusa.

The second of the four articles continues the prophetic framework by identifying the Patriot Act of 2001 as the United States “speaking” in fulfillment of Revelation 13:11. The Patriot Act was the first of three constitutional repudiations that parallel the three waymarks at the beginning of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy; 1776 Declaration of Independence, 1789 Constitution, and 1798 Alien and Sedition Acts. 1888’s failed Blair Bill, a national Sunday-law attempt was withdrawn like unto Cestius’ siege in the year 66; both typifying 2001, when the Patriot Act initiated the image-of-the-beast testing period in the United States. The Patriot Act aligns with 1776, and replaced English “innocent until proven guilty” common law, with Roman “guilty until proven innocent” civil law. The middle waymark, represented by 1789—the Pelosi Trials beginning in January 2022—trampled procedural and substantive due process through political lawfare, false-flag operations, and agency corruption, openly denying fundamental rights. These three waymarks of speaking in the 2001 Patriot Act, 2022 Pelosi Trials, and the coming Sunday law progressively repudiate every principle of the U.S. Constitution.

Eyesibili ezihlokweni ezine ziqhubekisela phambili uhlaka lwesiprofetho ngokukhomba i-Patriot Act ka-2001 njengokuthi i-United States “ikhuluma” ekugcwalisekeni kweSambulo 13:11. I-Patriot Act yaba eyokuqala kwezintathu zokwenqatshwa komthethosisekelo ezihambisana nezimpawu ezintathu zokuqala kombuso wesithupha wesiprofetho seBhayibheli; i-Declaration of Independence ka-1776, uMthethosisekelo ka-1789, kanye ne-Alien and Sedition Acts ka-1798. I-Blair Bill ehlulekile ka-1888, okuwumzamo womthetho weSonto lwangeSonto kazwelonke, yahoxiswa ngendlela efana nokuvinjezelwa kukaCestius ngonyaka ka-66; kokubili kuyisifaniso sika-2001, lapho i-Patriot Act yaqala khona isikhathi sokuvivinywa komfanekiso wesilo e-United States. I-Patriot Act ihambisana no-1776, futhi yathatha indawo yomthetho ojwayelekile wesiNgisi othi “umsulwa kuze kube yilapho kutholakala ubufakazi bokuba necala,” yafaka umthetho womphakathi wamaRoma othi “unecala kuze kube yilapho kufakazelwa ukuthi umsulwa.” Isibonakaliso esimaphakathi, esimelwe ngu-1789—amaPelosi Trials aqala ngoJanuwari 2022—sanyathela inqubo efanele yezomthetho kanye nokuvikelwa okuyisisekelo komthetho ngokusebenzisa impi yezomthetho yezepolitiki, imisebenzi ye-false-flag, kanye nokonakala kwezinhlangano zikahulumeni, siphika obala amalungelo ayisisekelo. Lezi zimpawu ezintathu zokukhuluma ku-Patriot Act ka-2001, amaPelosi Trials ka-2022, kanye nomthetho weSonto oluzayo, ziqhubeka ngokwenqatsha zonke izimiso zoMthethosisekelo wase-U.S.

Then Protestantism joins hands with popery and spiritualism in the threefold union, at which point the United States speaks as a dragon, fully forms the image of the beast, fills its cup of probation, and ceases as the sixth kingdom. National apostasy is then followed by national ruin. The speaking at the Sunday law is typified by the beginning and first Sunday law of Constantine in 321 and then the ending and last Sunday law is represented by 538.

Khona-ke ubuProthestani buhlanganisa izandla nobupapa kanye nokusebenzelana nemimoya kulolo bumbano obuyizingxenye ezintathu; ngaleso sikhathi i-United States ikhuluma njengodrako, ibumbe ngokugcwele umfanekiso wesilo, igcwalise indebe yayo yesikhathi somusa, futhi iyeke ukuba ngumbuso wesithupha. Khona-ke ukuhlubuka kwesizwe kulandelwa ukubhujiswa kwesizwe. Lokho kukhuluma emthethweni weSonto kufanekiswa ukuqala nomthetho wokuqala weSonto kaConstantine ngo-321, bese ukuphela nomthetho wokugcina weSonto kumelwe ngu-538.

All of these events are hidden within the prophetic history of Daniel 11:40, which runs parallel to the Millerite and also Christ-to-cross lines. Revelation 12:15–16 portrays the Constitution as the “earth” that once swallowed the dragon’s flood of persecution, that ultimately speaks as the dragon at the soon coming Sunday law. Ellen White’s warning in Testimonies, volume 5 (pages 711 and 451, 452) that any religious legislation that concedes to the papacy, and that the Sunday law will reveal the dragon’s spirit; confirms the three steps of 1776, 1789, and 1798 are waymarks that typify the final three-step testing process that concludes at the final test and the testing process is what prepares God’s people to stand.

Zonke lezi zehlakalo zifihlwe emlandweni wesiprofetho kaDaniyeli 11:40, ohambisana nomugqa wamaMillerite kanye nomugqa kaKristu kuya esiphambanweni. ISambulo 12:15–16 siveza uMthethosisekelo “njengomhlaba” owake wagwinya uzamcolo wokushushisa kadrako, lowo oyogcina usukhuluma njengodrako emthethweni weSonto osusondele ukufika. Isexwayiso sika-Ellen White ku-Testimonies, umqulu 5 (amakhasi 711 no-451, 452), sokuthi noma yimuphi umthetho wenkolo ovuma ukudedela igunya kupapa, nokuthi umthetho weSonto uyokwembula umoya kadrako, siqinisekisa ukuthi izinyathelo ezintathu zika-1776, 1789, no-1798 ziyizimpawu zendlela ezifanekisela inqubo yokugcina yokuvivinywa enezinyathelo ezintathu ephetha ekuvivinyweni kokugcina, futhi inqubo yokuvivinywa iyona elungiselela abantu bakaNkulunkulu ukuba beme.

The third article elaborates further on Ellen White’s warnings in Testimonies, volume 5, pages 451, 452, asserting that the soon coming Sunday law in the United States marks the decisive moment when the nation fully disconnects from righteousness, accomplishes the threefold union (Protestantism grasping Romanism and spiritualism). The United States then repudiates every constitutional principle as a Protestant and republican government, and propagates papal delusions. This is the signal that the limit of God’s forbearance has been reached, thus filling up the nation’s cup of iniquity, prompting the angel of mercy’s departure and initiating national ruin. Then the answer to the martyrs’ cry from the fifth seal of, “How long?” arrives as a second group of papal martyrs is made up. The dragon’s spirit is revealed when the “Sunday movement” speaks—serving as the modern “abomination of desolation” (spoken of by Daniel and referenced by Christ) as a sign to flee the cities before destruction. The Sunday law is the conclusion of the progressive repudiation of the Constitution that began in 2001 with the Patriot Act (typified by the 1888 Blair Bills, Cestius’s 66 AD siege, Christ’s baptism, August 11, 1840 and The Declaration of Independence).

Isihloko sesithathu siqhubekisela phambili izixwayiso zika-Ellen White ezise-Testimonies, umqulu 5, amakhasi 451, 452, sigcizelela ukuthi umthetho weSonto ozayo maduze e-United States uphawula umzuzu onqumayo lapho leso sizwe sizihlukanisa ngokuphelele nokulunga, sigcwalisa inyunyana ephindwe kathathu (ubuProthestani bubamba ubuRoma kanye nokusebenzelana nemimoya). I-United States ibe isilahla yonke imigomo yomthethosisekelo njengohulumeni ongumProthestani noweriphabhulikhi, futhi isakaze izinkohliso zobupapa. Lokhu kuyisibonakaliso sokuthi umkhawulo wokubekezela kukaNkulunkulu usufinyelelwe, ngaleyo ndlela kugcwaliseke inkomishi yobubi yesizwe, okubangela ukuhamba kwengelosi yesihe futhi kuqalise ukubhujiswa kwesizwe. Khona-ke impendulo ekukhaleni kwabafel’ ukholo kophawu lwesihlanu ethi, “Koze kube nini na?” iyafika njengoba kugcwaliswa iqembu lesibili labafel’ ukholo bobupapa. Umoya kadrako uyembulwa lapho “inhlangano yeSonto” ikhuluma—usebenza “njengesinengiso sencithakalo” sesimanje (esakhulunywa nguDaniyeli sabhekiselwa futhi nguKristu) njengesibonakaliso sokubaleka emizini ngaphambi kwencithakalo. Umthetho weSonto uyisiphetho sokulahlwa okuqhubekayo koMthethosisekelo okwaqala ngo-2001 nge-Patriot Act (okufanekiselwa yi-Blair Bills zika-1888, ukuvinjezelwa kweJerusalema nguCestius ngo-66 AD, ukubhapathizwa kukaKristu, u-August 11, 1840 kanye ne-The Declaration of Independence).

The period of the formation of the image of the beast in the United States includes a complicated dual line, involving parallel Republican (political) and Protestant (religious) “horns” that ultimately unite in church-state enforcement of Sunday laws. The relationship mirrors the papal beast’s woman-over-beast control and is fully manifested at the overturning of the Constitution’s core principle of the separation of church and state.

Isikhathi sokwakheka komfanekiso wesilo e-United States sihlanganisa umugqa oyinkimbinkimbi ophindwe kabili, ohlanganisa “izimpondo” ezihambisanayo zamaRepublican (ezombusazwe) nezamaProthestani (ezokholo), ekugcineni ezihlangana ekuphoqelelweni kwemithetho yeSonto ngokuphathelene nokugcinwa kweSonto ngeSonto ngokubambisana kombuso nesonto. Lobu budlelwano bufanisa ukulawula kowesifazane phezu kwesilo esiphathelene nesilo sobupapa, futhi bubonakaliswa ngokugcwele ekuchithweni kwesimiso esiyinhloko soMthethosisekelo sokwehlukaniswa kwesonto nombuso.

Internally, the image of the beast testing time tests character formation (Christ’s image versus Satan’s beast image) among all people, separating wise and foolish virgins, while externally identifying the latter days political struggles, alliances and broken treaties. The 2001 unto the Sunday law period initiates the sprinkling of the latter rain (beginning when the Revelation 18 angel descended on September 11, 2001, lightening the earth via the fall of New York’s great buildings). 9/11 begins the sifting of Laodicean Seventh-day Adventism through acceptance or rejection of the “little book” message that is to be eaten as in Revelation 10. The wheat and tares remain together until their separation at the Sunday law, when the one hundred and forty-four thousand are lifted up as the ensign and the arrival of the full outpouring of the latter rain during the worldwide image-of-the-beast formation, typified by 321 to 538. Then the gathering of the great multitude from Babylon commences until Michael stands up and probation closes. This aligns with judgment beginning first with God’s house from 9/11, then to the eleventh-hour workers post-Sunday law.

Ngaphakathi, isikhathi sokuhlolwa somfanekiso wesilo sivivinya ukwakheka kwesimilo (umfanekiso kaKristu uma uqhathaniswa nomfanekiso wesilo kaSathane) phakathi kwabantu bonke, sehlukanisa izintombi ezihlakaniphileyo neziziphukuphuku; kanti ngaphandle siveza imizabalazo yezombusazwe yezinsuku zokugcina, izivumelwano zokubambisana, nezivumelwano eziphulwayo. Isikhathi esisukela ku-2001 siye esikhathini somthetho weSonto siqala ukufafazwa kwemvula yakamuva (siqala lapho ingelosi yesAmbulo 18 yehla ngoSepthemba 11, 2001, ikhanyisa umhlaba ngokuwiswa kwezakhiwo ezinkulu zaseNew York). U-9/11 uqala ukuhlungwa kweSeventh-day Adventism yaseLawodike ngokwamukela noma ngokwenqaba umlayezo “wencwadi encane” okumelwe udliwe njengaseSambulweni 10. Ukolweni nokhula kuhlala ndawonye kuze kube ukuhlukaniswa kwako ngesikhathi somthetho weSonto, lapho abayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane bephakanyiswa njengophawu, kanye nokufika kokuthululwa okuphelele kwemvula yakamuva ngesikhathi sokwakheka komfanekiso wesilo emhlabeni wonke, okufanekiselwa ngu-321 kuya ku-538. Khona-ke ukuqoqwa kwesixuku esikhulu eBhabhiloni kuyaqala kuze kube uMikayeli esukuma nomusa wokuprakthiza uvalwa. Lokhu kuhambisana nokwahlulela okuqala kuqala endlini kaNkulunkulu kusukela ku-9/11, bese kuya kubasebenzi behora leshumi nanye emva komthetho weSonto.

The third article emphasizes that surviving the period when celestial glory and past persecutions are blended and repeated requires prior mastery of prophecy, via line-upon-line methodology of Isaiah 28. The methodology is exemplified by Daniel’s worthies, Christ’s disciples pre-Pentecost, and Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego at the furnace who are typify as those who are prepared to stand securely on “It is written,” amid Satan’s marvelous workings and counterfeits.

Isihloko sesithathu sigcizelela ukuthi ukusinda kuleso sikhathi lapho inkazimulo yasezulwini nokushushiswa kwangesikhathi esidlule kuhlanganiswa khona futhi kuphindaphindwa khona kudinga ulwazi oluqondile lwesiprofetho olwaluzuzwa ngaphambili, ngokusebenzisa indlela ka-Isaya 28 yomugqa phezu komugqa. Le ndlela ibonakaliswa ngabalungileyo bakaDaniyeli, ngabafundi bakaKristu ngaphambi kwePhentekoste, nangoShadiraki, Meshaki, no-Abedinego esithandweni somlilo, abamelela labo abalungiselelwe ukuma ngokuqinile phezu kokuthi “Kulotshiwe,” phakathi kwemisebenzi emangalisayo kaSathane nezinkohliso zakhe.

The fourth article explains that the prophetic testing process of the formation of the image of the beast in the United States runs parallel to and is intertwined with the three constitutional waymarks (Patriot Act in 2001 as the initial “speaking,” Pelosi Trials in 2022 as the middle, and the Sunday law as the final). The testing process prepares the wise virgins (the 144,000) to endure the crowning trial of persecution that begins at the Sunday law, when national apostasy leads to ruin. Satan then unleashes marvelous counterfeits (claiming to be God with miracles), and celestial glory blends with repeated past persecutions, allowing God’s people to walk unmoved in the light proceeding from God’s throne. This preparation mirrors Christ’s strategy in John six (as commented on in The Desire of Ages, 394), where He permitted a severe test to weed out self-seeking followers early, strengthening the true disciples for their ultimate trial (Gethsemane, betrayal, crucifixion) by His presence. Similarly, the image-of-the-beast test—encompassing the internal character formation (Christ’s image vs. Satan’s beast image) and external church-state union overturning separation of church and state—sifts Laodicean Adventism. The test purifies the wise through acceptance of the unsealed message via the line-upon-line methodology of, Isaiah 28.

Isihloko sesine sichaza ukuthi inqubo yokuvivinywa yesiprofetho yokwakheka komfanekiso wesilo e-United States ihamba ihambisana futhi ixhunywe ngokuqinile nezimpawu-ndlela ezintathu zomthethosisekelo (i-Patriot Act ngo-2001 njengokuthi “ukukhuluma” kokuqala, ama-Pelosi Trials ngo-2022 njengaphakathi, nomthetho weSonto njengowokugcina). Inqubo yokuvivinywa ilungiselela izintombi ezihlakaniphileyo (abayi-144,000) ukuba zikhuthazelele uvivinyo oluyisicoco lokushushiswa oluqala emthethweni weSonto, lapho ukuhlubuka kwesizwe kuholela encithakalweni. USathane abe esededela okomgunyathi okumangalisayo (ethi unguNkulunkulu ephelekezela ngezimangaliso), futhi inkazimulo yasezulwini ixubana nokushushiswa okuphindaphindiwe kwangesikhathi esedlule, kuvumela abantu bakaNkulunkulu ukuba bahambe benganyakaziswa ekukhanyeni okuvela esihlalweni sobukhosi sikaNkulunkulu. Lokhu kulungiselelwa kufana neqhinga likaKristu kuJohane isithupha (njengoba kuphawuliwe ku-The Desire of Ages, 394), lapho avumela khona uvivinyo olunzima ukuze ahlunge kusenesikhathi abalandeli abazifunelayo bona, eqinisa abafundi beqiniso ngenxa yovivinyo lwabo lokugcina (iGetsemane, ukungcatshwa, ukubethelwa) ngobukhona Bakhe. Ngokufanayo, uvivinyo lomfanekiso wesilo—oluhlanganisa ukwakheka kwesimilo kwangaphakathi (umfanekiso kaKristu ngokumelene nomfanekiso wesilo kaSathane) kanye nokuhlangana kwangaphandle kwebandla nombuso okugumbuqela ukuhlukaniswa kwebandla nombuso—luhlunga ubu-Adventist baseLawodikeya. Uvivinyo luhlanza abahlakaniphileyo ngokwamukela umlayezo ongakavulwa ngezimpawu ngokusebenzisa indlela yomugqa phezu komugqa ka-Isaya 28.

The unsealed light is the light of the seventh seal (Revelation 8:1–5), manifested as fire cast to earth in answer to the saints’ prayers, as typified by the tongues of fire at Pentecost’s outpouring. The unsealed light was also represented by the Millerite midnight cry (which prepared entry by faith into the Most Holy Place), and which will be fulfilled in the modern midnight cry unsealed in July 2023, within Daniel 11:40’s hidden history.

Ukukhanya okungavuliwe kuwukukhanya kophawu lwesikhombisa (IsAmbulo 8:1–5), okubonakaliswa njengomlilo ophonselwa emhlabeni njengempendulo emikhulekweni yabangcwele, njengoba kufanekiswa yizilimi zomlilo ekuthululweni kwePentekoste. Ukukhanya okungavuliwe kwaphinde kwamelelwa yisimemezelo sasebusuku phakathi kwamabili sabaMillerite (esasihlela ukungena ngokukholwa eNdaweni Engcwele Kakhulu), futhi esiyogcwaliseka esimemezelweni sanamuhla sasebusuku phakathi kwamabili esingavuliwe ngoJulayi 2023, ngaphakathi komlando ofihlekile kaDaniyeli 11:40.

The message of the latter rain sprinkling since 9/11, along with the increase of knowledge on the papacy and the Sunday law, accompanied with the unsealing of the seven thunders, the hidden history of verse forty are all encompassed in the unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ. The detailed prophetic illumination of the image-of-the-beast formation; including both the Republican and Protestant horns’ struggles, political parties, Laodicean Adventism, 144,000 emergence, Islam’s third woe, Russia, UN, papal power, and Hasmonaean parallels equips the wise to recognize and appropriate God’s leading without forgetting past guidance (Testimonies to Ministers, 31).

Umlayezo wokufafazwa kwemvula yamuva kusukela ngo-9/11, kanye nokwanda kolwazi ngobupapa nomthetho weSonto, kuhambisana nokwambulwa kwezulu kwezulu eziyisikhombisa, kanye nomlando ofihlekile wevesi lamashumi amane, konke kuhlanganiswe ekuvulweni kwencwadi yeSambulo sikaJesu Kristu. Ukukhanyiselwa okuningiliziwe kwesiprofetho mayelana nokwakheka komfanekiso wesilo; kuhlanganisa kokubili imizabalazo yezimpondo zeRiphabhulikhi nezobuProthestani, amaqembu ezombangazwe, ubu-Adventist baseLawodikeya, ukuvela kwabayi-144,000, usizi lwesithathu lwamaSulumane, iRussia, i-UN, amandla obupapa, kanye nokufana kwamaHasmoneya, kuhlomisa abahlakaniphileyo ukuba baqaphele futhi bamukele ukuhola kukaNkulunkulu ngaphandle kokukhohlwa ukuhola kwangaphambili (Testimonies to Ministers, 31).

By eating the “little book” (Revelation 10), internalizing the history in advance through Berean study, the one hundred and forty-four thousand gain discernment to stand securely on, “It is written,” amid Satan’s deceptions. Their preparation allows them to avoid drawing back to perdition (Hebrews 10:37–39; Habakkuk 2:4), and they are thereafter manifested as tried-and-tested overcomers who keep God’s commandments (especially the fourth) and the faith of Jesus. They are those who navigate the final crisis where the just live by faith, protected by angels, while the foolish (who reject the methodology and message) face strong delusion and are without hope. This aligns with Testimonies, volume 9’s chapter For the Coming of the King, (beginning at page 11) with its 9/11 symbolism, thus identifying the period of 9/11 to the Sunday law as the sealing time where the wise understand Daniel eleven’s completion and fear nothing except forgetting God’s leading in past sacred histories.

Ngokudla “incwadi encane” (IsAmbulo 10), bekwenza umlando ube ngaphakathi kubo kusengaphambili ngokufunda kwaseBereya, abayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane nane bathola ukuqonda ukuze beme beqinile phezu kokuthi, “Kulotshiwe,” phakathi kokukhohlisa kukaSathane. Ukulungiselelwa kwabo kubenza bakwazi ukugwema ukuhlehla kuye ekubhujisweni (Hebheru 10:37–39; Habakuki 2:4), bese kamuva babonakaliswa njengabanqobi abavivinyiwe nabafakazelwe abagcina imiyalo kaNkulunkulu (ikakhulukazi eyesine) kanye nokholo lukaJesu. Yibo labo abadabula inhlekelele yokugcina lapho abalungileyo bephila ngokukholwa, bevikelwe yizingelosi, kuyilapho abayiziwula (abala indlela nomyalezo) bebhekana nokuduka okunamandla futhi bengasenathemba. Lokhu kuvumelana nesahluko esithi For the Coming of the King encwadini ethi Testimonies, umqulu 9, (esiqala ekhasini 11) kanye nomfuziselo waso ka-9/11, ngaleyo ndlela kukhonjwa isikhathi sika-9/11 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto njengesikhathi sokubekwa uphawu lapho abahlakaniphileyo beqonda ukuphelela kukaDaniyeli ishumi nanye futhi bengasabi lutho ngaphandle kokukhohlwa ukuhola kukaNkulunkulu emilandweni engcwele edlule.

The four articles collectively present a prophetic interpretation of Christ, as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and the Alpha and the Omega who unseals portions of Daniel chapter eleven at key moments to guide the final reform movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. In 1989, 126 years after the 1863 Adventist “rebellion,” the Lion unsealed Daniel 11:40–45, revealing the papacy’s 1798 deadly wound healing at the threefold union (dragon, beast, and false prophet) of verse forty-one and leading to Armageddon, “the glorious holy mountain” where the papacy receives her final judgment in verse forty-five. The unsealing initiates the movement’s beginning, producing an “increase of knowledge” (Selected Messages, book 2) on “the papacy and Sunday law”, triggering the threefold testing of being “purified, made white, and tried” as represented in Daniel 12:10.

Lezi zihloko ezine, ngokuhlangene, ziveza ukuhumusha okungokwesiprofetho ngoKristu, njengeNgonyama yesizwe sakwaJuda, no-Alfa no-Omega, ovula izingxenye zikaDaniyeli isahluko seshumi nanye ngezikhathi ezisemqoka ukuze aqondise ukunyakaza kokugcina kwenguquko kwabeyikhulu namashumi amane nane ezinkulungwane. Ngo-1989, eminyakeni eyi-126 emva “kokuhlubuka” kwama-Adventist kwango-1863, iNgonyama yavula uDaniyeli 11:40–45, yembula ukuphulukiswa kwesilonda esibulalayo sobupapa sango-1798 enhlanganweni ephindwe kathathu (udrako, isilo, nomprofethi wamanga) yevesi lamashumi amane nanye, yaholela e-Armagedoni, “intaba ekhazimulayo engcwele,” lapho ubupapa bamukela khona ukwahlulelwa kwabo kokugcina evesini lamashumi amane nanhlanu. Lokhu kuvulwa kuqalisa ukuqala kwalokhu kunyakaza, kukhiqize “ukwanda kolwazi” (Selected Messages, incwadi 2) mayelana “nobupapa nomthetho weSonto”, kubangele ukuvivinywa okuphindwe kathathu kokuba “bahlanjululwe, benziwe mhlophe, bavivinywe” njengoba kumelelwe kuDaniyeli 12:10.

We will continue these thoughts in the next article.
