From Caesarea Philippi to Caesarea Maritima, with a stop along the way at the Mount of Transfiguration; Peter symbolizes the one hundred and forty-four thousand who arrive at the waymark of the feast of Trumpets in the line constructed upon the two lines of twenty-two verses of Leviticus twenty-three, in conjunction with the Pentecostal season in the time of Christ. Leviticus twenty-three, the cross, Pentecost and Cornelius sending for Peter; are all brought together line upon line with the symbolism of the third, sixth and ninth hours.

Ukusuka eKesariya Filiphi kuya eKesariya Maritima, kumiswe endleleni eNtabeni yokuGuqulwa Isimo; uPetru ufuzisela abayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane abafika esibonakalweni sendlela somkhosi wokuHalalisa ngeziMpempe emgqeni owakhiwe phezu kwemigqa emibili yamavesi angamashumi amabili nambili kaLevitikusi amashumi amabili nantathu, kuhlangene nesikhathi sePentekoste ngesikhathi sikaKristu. ULevitikusi amashumi amabili nantathu, isiphambano, iPentekoste, noKorneliyu ethumela ukubiza uPetru; konke kuhlanganiswa umugqa phezu komugqa kanye nomfuziselo wehora lesithathu, lesithupha nelesishiyagalolunye.

Christ at the third, sixth and ninth hour at the cross, Peter at the third and ninth hour at Pentecost and Cornelius at the ninth hour, Peter at the sixth hour at Joppa and the third hour at Caesarea Philippi connect with Daniel eleven verses thirteen through fifteen, for Caesarea Philippi is also Panium.

UKristu ngehora lesithathu, lesithupha nelesishiyagalolunye esiphambanweni, uPetru ngehora lesithathu nelesishiyagalolunye ngePhentekoste noKorneliyu ngehora lesishiyagalolunye, uPetru ngehora lesithupha eJopha nangehora lesithathu eKesariya Filipi kuhlobene noDaniyeli isahluko 11 amavesi 13 kuya ku-15, ngoba iKesariya Filipi nayo iyiPhaniyumi.

Peter was preaching the book of Joel at Pentecost and when Peter presented his message to Cornelius’s household the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles, as it had been poured out upon the Jews at Pentecost. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit for the Jews and thereafter for the Gentiles, typified the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the latter days. The outpouring in the latter days is twofold, beginning with a sprinkling at 9/11 that ultimately progresses to the proclamation of the Midnight Cry that reaches to the Sunday law and then becomes the loud cry of the third angel, where and when the latter rain is poured out without measure.

UPetru wayeshumayela incwadi kaJoweli ngePhentekoste, futhi lapho uPetru ethula umlayezo wakhe kwabendlu kaKorneliyu, uMoya oNgcwele wathululelwa phezu kwabeZizwe, njengoba wawuthululelwe phezu kwamaJuda ngePhentekoste. Ukuthululwa kukaMoya oNgcwele kwamaJuda, bese kuthi kamuva kwabeZizwe, kwakufanekisa ukuthululwa kukaMoya oNgcwele ezinsukwini zokugcina. Lokhu kuthululwa ezinsukwini zokugcina kuyizigaba ezimbili, kuqala ngokufafazwa ngo-9/11, okugcina kuqhubekele ekumemezelweni koKhalelo Lwaphakathi Kwamabili olufinyelela emthethweni weSonto, bese kuba ngukukhala okukhulu kwengelosi yesithathu, lapho nangaleso sikhathi imvula yakamuva ithululwa ngaphandle kwesilinganiso.

Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil. And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. Joel 2:23–25.

Ngakho-ke thokozani, nina bantwana baseSiyoni, nijabule eNkosini uNkulunkulu wenu; ngokuba uninike imvula yokuqala ngesilinganiso esifaneleyo, futhi uyokwehlisela nina imvula, imvula yokuqala nemvula yokugcina ngenyanga yokuqala. Izibuya ziyakugcwala ukolweni, nezikhama zokuchobozela ziyakuchichima iwayini namafutha. Ngiyakubuyisela kini iminyaka eyadliwa yisikhonyane, nesibungu, nesibankwa, nesikhonyane esihlafunayo, ibutho lami elikhulu engalithuma phakathi kwenu. Joel 2:23–25.

Peter represents those who participate in the history of the former moderate sprinkling from 9/11 unto the Sunday law, and also the latter rain, which restores the “years” representing the four generations of Laodicean Seventh-day Adventism’s escalating rebellion destroyed. In the temple, at the ninth hour, Peter presented the book of Joel’s restoration of the years.

UPetru umelela labo abahlanganyela emlandweni wokufafazwa okulinganiselayo kokuqala kusukela ngo-9/11 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto, kanye nemvula yokugcina, ebuyisela “iminyaka” emele izizukulwane ezine zokuvukela okukhulayo kwe-Seventh-day Adventism yaseLawodikeya ezabhujiswa. Ethempelini, ngehora lesishiyagalolunye, uPetru wethula ukubuyiselwa kweminyaka kwencwadi kaJoweli.

Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. Acts 3:19–24.

Ngakho-ke phendukani, niguquke, ukuze izono zenu zesulwe, ukuze kufike izikhathi zokuvuselelwa ezivela ebukhoneni beNkosi; ukuze ithumele uJesu Kristu, owashunyayelwa kini ngaphambili; okunguyena izulu okumelwe limamukele kuze kube yizikhathi zokubuyiselwa kwezinto zonke, uNkulunkulu akhuluma ngazo ngomlomo wabo bonke abaprofethi bakhe abangcwele kusukela ekuqaleni kwezwe. Ngokuba uMose ngempela wathi kobaba, INkosi uNkulunkulu wenu iyakuninika umprofethi phakathi kwabafowenu, onjengami; kuyakumelwe nimlalele kukho konke ayakukusho kini. Futhi kuyakuthi wonke umphefumulo ongayikulalela lowo mprofethi uyakuchithwa phakathi kwabantu. Yebo, nabo bonke abaprofethi kusukela kuSamuweli nalabo abamlandelayo, bonke abakhulumileyo, nabo bamemezela ngaphambili ngalezi zinsuku. Izenzo 3:19–24.

The blotting out of sins is the final work of Christ in the investigative judgment, and the blotting out begins at the house of God.

Ukusulwa kwezono kuwumsebenzi wokugcina kaKristu ekwahluleleni kophenyo, futhi ukusulwa kuqala endlini kaNkulunkulu.

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. 1 Peter 4:17–19.

Ngokuba isikhathi sesifikile sokuba ukwahlulela kuqale endlini kaNkulunkulu; futhi uma kuqala kithi, kuyakuba yini ukuphela kwalabo abangayilaleli ivangeli likaNkulunkulu na? Futhi uma olungileyo esinda ngokulambisa, uyakuvela kuphi ongesamkhonzi uNkulunkulu nesoni na? Ngakho-ke labo abahlupheka ngokwentando kaNkulunkulu mabanikele ukugcinwa kwemiphefumulo yabo kuye ngokwenza okuhle, njengakuMdali othembekileyo. 1 Petru 4:17–19.

Peter understood at Pentecost and also at Cornelius’ home in Caesarea by the sea, that the book of Joel was being fulfilled. Pentecost represents the Sunday law when judgment is finished for the house of God, and then moves to the Gentiles. His message at the Sunday law is the same message proclaimed at the arrival of the Midnight Cry. The alpha proclamation is the beginning of the prophetic period that ends with the omega proclamation. Peter represents those who proclaim the message, and the message begins with its empowerment, which is marked by the loosing of the ass of Islam. The ass is loosed to mark the beginning of the Midnight Cry, and it is loosed again at the Sunday law, which is the conclusion of the Midnight Cry.

UPetru waqonda ngePhentekoste, futhi nasekhaya likaKorneliyu eKhesariya ngasolwandle, ukuthi incwadi kaJoweli yayigcwaliseka. IPhentekoste limelela umthetho weSonto lapho ukwahlulela sekuphelile ngendlu kaNkulunkulu, bese kudlulela kwabeZizwe. Umlayezo wakhe ngesikhathi somthetho weSonto uyafana nomlayezo owamenyezelwa ekufikeni koMemezelo Waphakathi Kobusuku. Isimemezelo se-alpha siyisiqalo sesikhathi sesiprofetho esiphetha ngesimemezelo se-omega. UPetru umelela labo abamemezela umlayezo, futhi umlayezo uqala ngokunikezwa amandla kwawo, okuphawulwa ngokukhululwa kwembongolo yobuSulumane. Imbongolo iyakhululwa ukuze kuphawulwe ukuqala koMemezelo Waphakathi Kobusuku, futhi iphinde ikhululwe emthethweni weSonto, okuyisiphetho soMemezelo Waphakathi Kobusuku.

Peter therefore also represents those who made the prediction of Islam’s strike upon the United States. Peter’s message at the Midnight Cry is a correction of the message that marked the first disappointment and the beginning of the tarrying time. Peter therefore represents those who proclaim the message of the Midnight Cry who have passed the first foundational test that arrived in 2024 and concluded May 8, 2025 with the election of the first American pope, in fulfillment of verse fourteen of Daniel eleven.

Ngakho-ke uPetru futhi umelela labo abenza isibikezelo sokuhlasela kwe-Islami phezu kwe-United States. Umlayezo kaPetru eSikhalweni Saphakathi Kobusuku uyisilungiso somlayezo owaphawula ukudumala kokuqala kanye nokuqala kwesikhathi sokulibala. Ngakho-ke uPetru umelela labo abamemezela umlayezo weSikhalo Saphakathi Kobusuku, asebedlulile ovivinyweni lokuqala oluyisisekelo olwafika ngo-2024 futhi lwaphetha ngoMeyi 8, 2025 ngokukhethwa kukapapa wokuqala waseMelika, ekugcwalisekeni kwevesi leshumi nane likaDaniyeli ishumi nanye.

The period from the feast of Trumpets unto Pentecost is the third and litmus test of the Pentecostal season represented with Leviticus twenty-three. A principle of the three angels that Sister White identified is also simply basic math. She identifies that you cannot have a third message without a first and second. Because Peter preaches the book of Joel at the Pentecostal Sunday law, then he also teaches Joel at the beginning of the proclamation of the message of the Midnight Cry, which is the litmus and third test of the Pentecostal season. Peter therefore represents the faithful during the three-step testing process that began when the Revelation of Jesus Christ was unsealed, beginning on December 31, 2023. If Peter is there at the third step, he must have walked the two previous steps, for you cannot have a third without a first and second.

Isikhathi esisuka emkhosini Wamacilongo kuze kufike iPentekoste siwuvivinyo lwesithathu nolokuhlola lweNkathi yePentekoste emelwe kuLevitikusi amashumi amabili nantathu. Umgomo wezingelosi ezintathu uDade White awuhlonza futhi uyizibalo eziyisisekelo nje. Uveza ukuthi awunakuba khona umyalezo wesithathu ngaphandle kowokuqala nowesibili. Ngoba uPetru ushumayela incwadi kaJoweli ngeSonto lomthetho ngePentekoste, ngalokho futhi ufundisa uJoweli ekuqaleni kokumenyezelwa komyalezo Wokukhala Kwaphakathi Kwamabili, okuwuvivinyo lokuhlola nolwesithathu lweNkathi yePentekoste. Ngakho-ke uPetru umelela abathembekile phakathi kwenqubo yokuvivinywa yezinyathelo ezintathu eyaqala lapho iSambulo sikaJesu Kristu sivulwa, kuqalwa ngoDisemba 31, 2023. Uma uPetru ekhona esinyathelweni sesithathu, kumelwe ukuba wahamba izinyathelo ezimbili ezandulelayo, ngokuba awunakuba khona owesithathu ngaphandle kowokuqala nowesibili.

The period of the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand began at 9/11 and it opened up a three-step testing process represented by the trumpet call of 9/11 to return to the foundations, and then the test of the first disappointment of July 18, 2020 arrived. The third test of the history is the Sunday law. A prophetic wilderness arrived on July 18, 2020, and within that wilderness period, in July 2023 a “voice” began to cry, and then on December 31, 2023, twenty-two years after 9/11, the unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ began. 2023 unto the Sunday law (when the perfect fulfillment of the 2,300 days is accomplished) identifies the period from 2023 unto the Sunday law as beginning with “23” and ending with “23,” for the closed door on October 22, 1844 typifies the closed door at the Sunday law. The 2300-year prophecy is represented by the “23” in 2,300.

Isikhathi sokubekwa uphawu kwabaliyikhulu namashumi amane nane ezinkulungwane saqala ngomhla ka-9/11, futhi savula inqubo yokuvivinywa enezinyathelo ezintathu emelwe ukukhala kwecilongo lika-9/11 sokubuyela ezisekelweni; kwase kufika uvivinyo lokudumala kokuqala lukaJulayi 18, 2020. Uvivinyo lwesithathu lwalo mlando ngumthetho weSonto. Ugwadule olungokwesiprofetho lwafika ngoJulayi 18, 2020, futhi phakathi kwaleso sikhathi sogwadule, ngoJulayi 2023 kwaqala “izwi” ukukhala; kwase kuthi ngoDisemba 31, 2023, eminyakeni engamashumi amabili nambili emva kuka-9/11, kwaqala ukwambulwa kweSambulo sikaJesu Kristu. U-2023 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto (lapho ukugcwaliseka okuphelele kwezinsuku eziyi-2,300 kufezeka) kuveza isikhathi esisukela ku-2023 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto njengesiqala ngo-“23” futhi siphetha ngo-“23,” ngokuba umnyango ovaliwe ngo-Okthoba 22, 1844 uyisifaniso somnyango ovaliwe emthethweni weSonto. Isiprofetho seminyaka eyi-2300 simelwe ngu-“23” ku-2,300.

1844 was the end of the history of the first and second angels. The history began with the arrival of the first angel in 1798, and it ended forty-six years later in 1844. Those forty-six years represent the Millerite temple that Christ suddenly came into in 1844. The human temple is designed upon “23” chromosomes for both male and female, thus marking “23” as a symbol of the work which Christ began in 1844. That work was to combine His divinity with our humanity. Jesus employs the natural world to illustrate the spiritual, and the work that began in 1844, at the conclusion of the 2,300 years is represented by the joining of the “23” male chromosomes with the “23” female chromosomes. When a man marries a woman, they become one flesh, and the marriage is what Christ began in 1844. The closed door of 1844 aligns with the closed door of the Sunday law, and the symbol of that closed door is “23.”

u-1844 wawuyisiphetho somlando wezingelosi zokuqala nezesibili. Lowo mlando waqala ngokufika kwengelosi yokuqala ngo-1798, waphela eminyakeni engamashumi amane nesithupha kamuva ngo-1844. Leyo minyaka engamashumi amane nesithupha imele ithempeli lamaMillerite uKristu afika ngokuzumayo kulo ngo-1844. Ithempeli lomuntu lakhiwe phezu kwama-chromosome “23” kowesilisa nakowesifazane, ngaleyo ndlela kuphawulwe “23” njengophawu lomsebenzi uKristu awuqala ngo-1844. Lowo msebenzi kwakuwukuhlanganisa ubuNkulunkulu Bakhe nobuntu bethu. UJesu usebenzisa umhlaba wemvelo ukufanekisa okomoya, futhi umsebenzi owaqala ngo-1844, ekupheleni kweminyaka engu-2,300, umelelwa ukuhlanganiswa kwama-chromosome “23” owesilisa nama-chromosome “23” owesifazane. Lapho indoda ishada nowesifazane, baba nyamanye, futhi lowo mshado uyikho uKristu akuqala ngo-1844. Umnyango ovaliwe ka-1844 uhambisana nomnyango ovaliwe womthetho weSonto, futhi uphawu lwalowo mnyango ovaliwe ngu-“23.”

From December 31, 2023 unto the “23” of the Sunday law identifies a period that begins with an alpha “23” and ends with an omega “23.” It also represents the period of the temple of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. That very same history is a fractal of 9/11 unto the Sunday law. 1844 is represented by the number “23,” and it identifies the beginning of the investigative judgment of the dead. 9/11 identifies the beginning of the investigative judgment of the living, and therefore 9/11 also possesses the number “23.” The period of 9/11 unto the Sunday law is a period with an alpha “23” and an omega “23.” 2023 to the Sunday law is a fractal of 9/11 to the Sunday law, and it is where the temple of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is raised. The Millerite temple was a forty-six-year period, but in the latter days, time is no longer; and the Millerite forty-six years in the beginning of Adventism typifies the same period in the ending of Adventism, and that period begins and ends with “23,” producing the Millerite number forty-six.

Kusukela ku-31 Disemba 2023 kuze kube “u-23” womthetho weSonto kukhomba inkathi eqala ngo-alpha “23” futhi iphele ngo-omega “23.” Futhi imelela inkathi yethempeli labayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane. Lowo mlando uqobo uyifraktali kusukela ku-9/11 kuze kube umthetho weSonto. U-1844 umelelwa ngenombolo ethi “23,” futhi ukhomba ukuqala kokwahlulela okuphenyayo kwabafileyo. U-9/11 ukhomba ukuqala kokwahlulela okuphenyayo kwabaphilayo, ngakho-ke no-9/11 nawo unayo inombolo ethi “23.” Inkathi esukela ku-9/11 kuze kube umthetho weSonto iyinkathi eno-alpha “23” no-omega “23.” U-2023 kuze kube umthetho weSonto uyifraktali ka-9/11 kuze kube umthetho weSonto, futhi yindawo lapho kuphakanyiswa khona ithempeli labayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane. Ithempeli lamaMillerite laliyinkathi yeminyaka engamashumi amane nesithupha, kodwa ezinsukwini zokugcina, isikhathi asisekho; futhi leyo minyaka engamashumi amane nesithupha yamaMillerite ekuqaleni kwe-Adventism ifanekisela yona leyo nkathi efanayo ekupheleni kwe-Adventism, futhi leyo nkathi iqala futhi iphele ngo-“23,” ikhiqize inombolo yamaMillerite engamashumi amane nesithupha.

All three of those histories represent a three-step testing process (the Millerites, 9/11 unto the Sunday law and 2023 unto the Sunday law). The history began with the trumpet call of Michael, who resurrected Moses and Elijah on December 31, 2023, and when Michael, who is Christ, resurrects, He does so with the sound of a trumpet.

Zontathu zonke lezo zindaba zomlando zimelela inqubo yokuvivinywa enezigaba ezintathu (amaMillerite, u-9/11 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto, no-2023 kuze kube ngumthetho weSonto). Lo mlando waqala ngokukhala kwecilongo kukaMikayeli, owavusa uMose no-Eliya ngoDisemba 31, 2023, futhi lapho uMikayeli, onguKristu, evusa, ukwenza lokho ngokuzwakala kwecilongo.

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first. 1 Thessalonians 4:19.

Ngokuba iNkosi uqobo iyakwehla ivela ezulwini ngokumemeza, ngezwi lengelosi enkulu, nangecilongo likaNkulunkulu; abafileyo kuKristu bayakuvuka kuqala. 1 Thesalonika 4:19.

Michael is the archangel, and it is his voice in conjunction with the trump of God that resurrects, and the book of Jude informs us Michael resurrected Moses.

UMikayeli uyingelosi enkulu, futhi yizwi lakhe kanye necilongo likaNkulunkulu okuvusa abafileyo; futhi incwadi kaJuda isazisa ukuthi uMikayeli wamvusa uMose.

Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. Jude 1:9.

Kepha uMikayeli ingelosi enkulu, lapho ephikisana nodeveli ephikela umzimba kaMose, akazange alinge ukuletha ukumangalela okuhlambalazayo kuye, kodwa wathi: INkosi mayikusole. Jude 1:9.

Christ, as Michael the archangel, unsealed the Revelation of Himself on December 31, 2023, when He then resurrected Moses and Elijah, the two witnesses that were slain on July 18, 2020. Then the alpha external foundation test arrived. The angel that descended at 9/11 blew Jeremiah’s trumpet as He called the faithful back to the Millerite foundations, and in parallel with that, the trumpet of Michael introduced the test of the foundations. The test is represented by Daniel 11:14, where “the robbers of thy people” establish the external vision. The Millerites identified that it was Rome that fulfilled the verse, and established the vision.

UKristu, njengoMikayeli ingelosi enkulu, wavula isAmbulo saKhe ngoDisemba 31, 2023, lapho esevusa uMose no-Eliya, ofakazi ababili ababulawa ngoJulayi 18, 2020. Kwabe sekufika uvivinyo lwezisekelo zangaphandle lwe-alpha. Ingelosi eyehla ngesikhathi sika-9/11 yakhala icilongo likaJeremiya njengoba ibiza abathembekile ukuba babuyele ezisekelweni zamaMillerite, futhi ngokuhambisana nalokho, icilongo likaMikayeli laletha uvivinyo lwezisekelo. Uvivinyo lumelelwa nguDaniyeli 11:14, lapho “abaphangi babantu bakho” bemisa umbono wangaphandle. AmaMillerite akhomba ukuthi kwakuyiRoma eyagcwalisa leli vesi, futhi amisa umbono.

From May 8, 2025, the erection of the temple upon the corner and foundation stone began. Thirty years after 1996—when the message unsealed in 1989 was formally established—the process began to formalize the message unsealed on December 31, 2023.

Kusukela mhla ka-8 Meyi 2025, kwaqala ukwakhiwa kwethempeli phezu kwetshe legumbi nelesisekelo. Eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu emva kuka-1996—lapho umlayezo owavulwa izimpawu ngo-1989 wamiswa ngokusemthethweni—kwaqala inqubo yokumisa ngokusemthethweni umlayezo owavulwa izimpawu ngoDisemba 31, 2023.

The 1996 formalization of the 1989 message came two hundred and twenty years after its historical subject arrived in 1776. The 2023 unsealing followed twenty-two years after the 1996 formalization was confirmed at September 11, 2001, through the prophetic manifestation of Islam.

Ukwenziwa ngokusemthethweni komlayezo ka-1989 ngo-1996 kwafika eminyakeni engamakhulu amabili namashumi amabili emva kokuba isihloko sawo somlando sifike ngo-1776. Ukwambulwa kuka-2023 kwalandela eminyakeni engamashumi amabili nambili emva kokuba lokho kwenziwa ngokusemthethweni kuka-1996 kuqinisekisiwe ngo-11 Septhemba 2001, ngokubonakaliswa kwesiprofetho kwe-Islam.

Peter represents the messengers of this sacred history who pass both the foundation and temple tests. The temple test includes the correction of the failed message of July 18, 2020. Thirty years after the message of 1989 was formalized in 1996, the test of the temple includes the work of correcting and then re-proclaiming the message of an Islamic strike upon Nashville, Tennessee. The formalization of the message of 1989 was represented by the publication of the magazine called the Time of the End in 1996. The magazine covered the last six verses of Daniel eleven, and it identified the Sunday law in the United States. Providentially an inactive ministry that had already been named Future for America years before was given to our ministry, by the previous directors of the ministry who had no light upon the message of 1989.

UPetru umele izithunywa zalo mlando ongcwele ezedlula kokubili uvivinyo lwesisekelo nolwethempeli. Uvivinyo lwethempeli luhlanganisa ukulungiswa komlayezo owehluleka kaJulayi 18, 2020. Eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu emva kokuba umyalezo ka-1989 wenziwa waba semthethweni ngo-1996, uvivinyo lwethempeli luhlanganisa umsebenzi wokulungisa bese kumenyezelwa kabusha umyalezo wokuhlasela kwamaSulumane phezu kweNashville, Tennessee. Ukwenziwa ngokusemthethweni komyalezo ka-1989 kwafaniswa nokushicilelwa komagazini obizwa ngokuthi i-Time of the End ngo-1996. Lo magazini wakhuluma ngamavesi ayisithupha okugcina kaDaniyeli ishumi nanye, futhi wakhomba umthetho weSonto e-United States. Ngokuhlinzeka kukaNkulunkulu, inkonzo eyayingasasebenzi eyayisivele yaqanjwa ngokuthi i-Future for America eminyakeni eyayedlule yanikezwa inkonzo yethu ngabaqondisi bangaphambili benkonzo, ababengenakho ukukhanya ngomlayezo ka-1989.

In 1996, our ministry became Future for America, and the publication was published which set forth the message that identified the future of America as represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven. The United States had begun its prophetic rise in 1776, and “22” years later, at the time of the end in 1798, the United States began its role as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, “220” years after 1776. In 1996, the message of the United States in prophecy was formalized. The “220” years from 1776, and the “22” years from that point to 1798 connect with William Miller who presented his first public discourse in 1831, “220” years after the publication of the King James Bible. The beginning and ending of Adventism emphasizes the formalization of the message that is unsealed at the time of the end.

Ngo-1996, inkonzo yethu yaba yi-Future for America, kwase kushicilelwa incwadi eyabeka obala umlayezo owachaza ikusasa laseMelika njengoba limelwe emavesini ayisithupha okugcina kaDaniyeli ishumi nanye. I-United States yayisiqale ukukhuphuka kwayo ngokwesiprofetho ngo-1776, futhi eminyakeni engu-“22” kamuva, ngesikhathi sokuphela ngo-1798, i-United States yaqala indima yayo njengombuso wesithupha wesiprofetho seBhayibheli, “220” iminyaka emva kuka-1776. Ngo-1996, umlayezo we-United States esiprofethweni wenziwa waba semthethweni. Iminyaka engu-“220” kusukela ngo-1776, kanye neminyaka engu-“22” kusukela lapho kuya ku-1798, ixhumana noWilliam Miller owethula inkulumo yakhe yokuqala yasobala ngo-1831, “220” iminyaka emva kokushicilelwa kweKing James Bible. Ukuqala nokuphela kwe-Adventism kugcizelela ukwenziwa kube semthethweni komlayezo owembulwa ngesikhathi sokuphela.

Thirty years after 1996, in 2026, the test of the temple includes the work of correcting the message of July 18, 2020. Thus, the alpha message of 1989, the message for the final generation that was formalized in 1996, began a period of thirty years that ended with the test to correct and formalize a message. Those thirty years are a symbol of the priesthood of the one hundred and forty-four thousand who will formalize the message of the Midnight Cry. Peter represents those who accomplish that work during the period of the second omega temple test.

Eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu ngemva kuka-1996, ngo-2026, ukuhlolwa kwethempeli kufaka umsebenzi wokulungisa umlayezo kaJulayi 18, 2020. Ngakho-ke, umlayezo we-alpha ka-1989, ongumlayezo wesizukulwane sokugcina owamiswa ngokusemthethweni ngo-1996, waqala inkathi yeminyaka engamashumi amathathu eyaphetha ngokuhlolwa kokulungisa nokumisa ngokusemthethweni umlayezo. Leyo minyaka engamashumi amathathu iwuphawu lobupristi balabo abayikhulu namashumi amane nane ezinkulungwane abayomisa ngokusemthethweni umlayezo Wokukhala Kwaphakathi Kwamabili. UPetru umelela labo abafeza lowo msebenzi phakathi nenkathi yokuhlolwa kwesibili kwe-omega kwethempeli.

Sister White informs us that God allows error to come in among His people, for the purpose of causing them to study.

UDadewethu uWhite uyasazisa ukuthi uNkulunkulu uvumela iphutha ukuba lingene phakathi kwabantu baKhe, ngenjongo yokubabangela ukuba bafunde.

God will arouse His people; if other means fail, heresies will come in among them, which will sift them, separating the chaff from the wheat. The Lord calls upon all who believe His word to awake out of sleep. Precious light has come, appropriate for this time. It is Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us. This light should lead us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examination of the positions which we hold.”

“UNkulunkulu uyovusa abantu baKhe; uma ezinye izindlela zehluleka, izihlubuki ziyongena phakathi kwabo, okuyobahlunga, kwehlukanise amakhoba nokolweni. INkosi ibiza bonke abakholwa yizwi laYo ukuba bavuke ebuthongweni. Kufikile ukukhanya okuyigugu, okufanele lesi sikhathi. Kuyiqiniso leBhayibheli, elibonisa izingozi ezisemandleni ethu khona manje. Lokhu kukhanya kufanele kusiholele ekutadisheni imiBhalo ngenkuthalo nasekuhloleni ngokucophelela okukhulu izimfundiso esizibambelele kuzo.”

The statement is a portion of a passage that will end this article in its entirety. In the articles and in our Sabbath zoom meetings, I confused some symbols in our consideration of Daniel 11:10–15, and although we made the necessary corrections, I was diverted from pursuing a conclusion of the series of articles upon Panium—the battle that leads to the Sunday law. It is now time to return to Panium, and when we do, we will have the added line of evidence that is represented by Peter at Caesarea Philippi, which is Panium.

Lesi sitatimende siyingxenye yendima ezovala lesi sihloko sonkana. Ezihlokweni nasezihlanganweni zethu zeSabatha ze-Zoom, ngahlanganisa ngokudideka ezinye izimpawu ekucabangeleni kwethu uDaniyeli 11:10–15, futhi nakuba senza ukulungisa okwakudingekile, ngaphambukiswa ekulandeleni isiphetho sochungechunge lwezihloko eziphathelene nePanium—impi eholela emthethweni weSonto. Manje sekuyisikhathi sokubuyela ePanium, futhi lapho senza njalo, sizobe sesinawo nomugqa owengeziwe wobufakazi omelwe nguPetru eKhesariya Filipi, okuyiPanium.

We will now return to our considerations of verses ten through sixteen of Daniel eleven, which illustrate the hidden history of verse forty. We left off in September, so it has been roughly five months.

Manje sizobuyela ekucabangeleni kwethu amavesi eshumi kuya kweleshumi nesithupha kaDaniyeli ishumi nanye, abonisa umlando ofihlekile wevesi lamashumi amane. Sagcina ngoSepthemba, ngakho sekudlule cishe izinyanga ezinhlanu.

“Peter exhorts his brethren to ‘grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.’ Whenever the people of God are growing in grace, they will be constantly obtaining a clearer understanding of His word. They will discern new light and beauty in its sacred truths. This has been true in the history of the church in all ages, and thus it will continue to the end. But as real spiritual life declines, it has ever been the tendency to cease to advance in the knowledge of the truth. Men rest satisfied with the light already received from God’s word and discourage any further investigation of the Scriptures. They become conservative and seek to avoid discussion.

“UPetru unxusa abafowabo ukuba ‘bakhule emseni, nasekwazini iNkosi yethu noMsindisi uJesu Kristu.’ Noma kunini lapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu bekhula emseni, bayohlala bethola ukuqonda okucace kakhudlwana kwezwi laKhe. Bayobona ukukhanya okusha nobuhle emaqinisweni alo angcwele. Lokhu kube yiqiniso emlandweni webandla kuzo zonke izikhathi, futhi kuyakuqhubeka kube njalo kuze kube sekupheleni. Kodwa lapho ukuphila kwangempela kukamoya kuncipha, kuye kwahlale kukhona ukuthambekela kokuyeka ukuqhubekela phambili ekwazini iqiniso. Abantu baneliswa ukukhanya asebekwamukele kakade ezwini likaNkulunkulu futhi badikibalise noma yikuphi ukuqhubeka kokuhlolisisa imiBhalo. Baba ngabalandela amasiko ngokuqinile futhi bafune ukugwema ingxoxo.”

“The fact that there is no controversy or agitation among God’s people should not be regarded as conclusive evidence that they are holding fast to sound doctrine. There is reason to fear that they may not be clearly discriminating between truth and error. When no new questions are started by investigation of the Scriptures, when no difference of opinion arises which will set men to searching the Bible for themselves to make sure that they have the truth, there will be many now, as in ancient times, who will hold to tradition and worship they know not what.

Iqiniso lokuthi akukho mpikiswano noma ukunyakaza phakathi kwabantu bakaNkulunkulu akufanele lithathwe njengobufakazi obuphelele bokuthi babambelele ngokuqinile emfundisweni ezwakalayo. Kunesizathu sokwesaba ukuthi kungenzeka bengahlukanisi ngokucacileyo phakathi kweqiniso nephutha. Lapho kungaveli mibuzo emisha ngenxa yokuhlolwa kweMibhalo, lapho kungavuki mehluko wemibono ozokwenza abantu baphenye iBhayibheli ngokwabo ukuze baqiniseke ukuthi banalo iqiniso, bayoba baningi manje, njengasezikhathini zasendulo, abayobambelela emasikweni bakhulekele lokho abangakwazi ukuthi kuyini.

I have been shown that many who profess to have a knowledge of present truth know not what they believe. They do not understand the evidences of their faith. They have no just appreciation of the work for the present time. When the time of trial shall come, there are men now preaching to others who will find, upon examining the positions they hold, that there are many things for which they can give no satisfactory reason. Until thus tested they knew not their great ignorance. And there are many in the church who take it for granted that they understand what they believe; but, until controversy arises, they do not know their own weakness. When separated from those of like faith and compelled to stand singly and alone to explain their belief, they will be surprised to see how confused are their ideas of what they had accepted as truth. Certain it is that there has been among us a departure from the living God and a turning to men, putting human in place of divine wisdom.

“Ngibonisiwe ukuthi abaningi abavuma ukuthi banolwazi lweqiniso lamanje abakwazi abakukholwayo. Abaqondi ubufakazi bokukholwa kwabo. Abanalo nhlobo ukwazisa okufanele ngomsebenzi wesikhathi samanje. Lapho kufika isikhathi sovivinyo, kukhona amadoda manje ashumayeza abanye ayothola, lapho ehlola izimfundiso azibambelelayo, ukuthi ziningi izinto angenakuzinikeza isizathu esigculisayo ngazo. Kwaze kwaba yilapho evivinywa ngaleyo ndlela lapho engazi khona ukungazi kwakhe okukhulu. Futhi baningi ebandleni abakuthatha kalula ukuthi bayakuqonda abakukholwayo; kodwa, kuze kuvele impikiswano, abakwazi ubuthakathaka babo siqu. Lapho behlukaniswa nalabo abanokukholwa okufanayo futhi bephoqeleka ukuba bame ngamunye eyedwa, yedwa ngokuphelele, ukuze bachaze inkolo yabo, bayomangala ukubona ukuthi ididekile kangakanani imibono yabo ngalokho ababekwamukele njengeqiniso. Okuqinisekileyo ukuthi kube khona phakathi kwethu ukuchezuka kuNkulunkulu ophilayo nokuphendukela kubantu, kubekwa okobuntu esikhundleni sokuhlakanipha kukaNkulunkulu.

God will arouse His people; if other means fail, heresies will come in among them, which will sift them, separating the chaff from the wheat. The Lord calls upon all who believe His word to awake out of sleep. Precious light has come, appropriate for this time. It is Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us. This light should lead us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examination of the positions which we hold. God would have all the bearings and positions of truth thoroughly and perseveringly searched, with prayer and fasting. Believers are not to rest in suppositions and ill-defined ideas of what constitutes truth. Their faith must be firmly founded upon the word of God so that when the testing time shall come and they are brought before councils to answer for their faith they may be able to give a reason for the hope that is in them, with meekness and fear.

“UNkulunkulu uyobavusa abantu baKhe; uma ezinye izindlela zehluleka, izihlubuki ziyongena phakathi kwabo, ezizobahlunga, zahlukanise amakhoba nokolweni. INkosi ibiza bonke abakholwa izwi laYo ukuba baphaphame baphume ebuthongweni. Ukukhanya okuyigugu sekufikile, okufanele lesi sikhathi. Leli yiqiniso leBhayibheli, elibonisa izingozi esezisiphezu kwethu. Lokhu kukhanya kufanele kusiholele ekutadisheni imiBhalo ngokuzimisela nasekuhloleni ngokucophelela okukhulu izikhundla esizibambayo. UNkulunkulu uthanda ukuba zonke izinhlangothi nezikhundla zeqiniso ziphenywe ngokuphelele nangokukhuthazela, ngomthandazo nangokuzila ukudla. Abakholwayo akufanele baphumule ekucabangeleni nasezimbonweni ezingacacile kahle mayelana nalokho okuyiqiniso. Ukukholwa kwabo kufanele kusekelwe ngokuqinile ezwini likaNkulunkulu ukuze kuthi, lapho isikhathi sokuvivinywa sesifikile futhi belethwa phambi kwemikhandlu ukuba baphendule ngokukholwa kwabo, bakwazi ukunikeza isizathu sethemba elikubo, ngobumnene nangokwesaba.”

Agitate, agitate, agitate. The subjects which we present to the world must be to us a living reality. It is important that in defending the doctrines which we consider fundamental articles of faith we should never allow ourselves to employ arguments that are not wholly sound. These may avail to silence an opposer, but they do not honor the truth. We should present sound arguments, that will not only silence our opponents, but will bear the closest and most searching scrutiny. With those who have educated themselves as debaters there is great danger that they will not handle the word of God with fairness. In meeting an opponent it should be our earnest effort to present subjects in such a manner as to awaken conviction in his mind, instead of seeking merely to give confidence to the believer.

“Vusani, vusani, vusani. Izihloko esizethula ezweni kumelwe kithi zibe yiqiniso eliphilayo. Kubalulekile ukuthi, ekulweleni izimfundiso esizibheka njengezihloko eziyisisekelo zokukholwa, singalokothi sizivumele ukusebenzisa izimpikiswano ezingezona eziqinile ngokuphelele. Lezi zingase zikwazi ukuthulisa ophikayo, kodwa azilihloniphi iqiniso. Kumelwe sethule izimpikiswano eziqinile, ezingeke zithulise kuphela abaphikisi bethu, kodwa ezizomelana nokuhlolwa okusondele kakhulu nokucophelelayo kakhulu. Kulabo abazifundise ukuba ngabaphikisi abanobuciko kunengozi enkulu yokuthi bangaliphathi ngezobulungisa izwi likaNkulunkulu. Ekubhekaneni nomphikisi kufanele kube ngumzamo wethu oqotho ukwethula izihloko ngendlela yokuba kuvuswe ukuqiniseka engqondweni yakhe, kunokufuna nje kuphela ukunikeza ozwayo ukukholwa ukuzethemba.”

“Whatever may be man’s intellectual advancement, let him not for a moment think that there is no need of thorough and continuous searching of the Scriptures for greater light. As a people we are called individually to be students of prophecy. We must watch with earnestness that we may discern any ray of light which God shall present to us. We are to catch the first gleamings of truth; and through prayerful study clearer light may be obtained, which can be brought before others.

“Noma ngabe kungakanani ukukhula komuntu ngokwengqondo, makangacabangi ngisho umzuzwana ukuthi asikho isidingo sokuhlolisisa imiBhalo ngokujulile nangokuqhubekayo ukuze kutholakale ukukhanya okukhulu. Njengesizwe sibizelwe, ngamunye ngamunye, ukuba sibe ngabafundi besiprofetho. Kumelwe siqaphele ngobuqotho obukhulu ukuze sikwazi ukubona noma yimuphi umsebe wokukhanya uNkulunkulu ayosethulela wona. Kumelwe sibambe ukucwazimula kokuqala kweqiniso; futhi ngokutadisha okuhambisana nomkhuleko kungatholakala ukukhanya okucace ngokwengeziwe, okungabekwa phambi kwabanye.”

“When God’s people are at ease and satisfied with their present enlightenment, we may be sure that He will not favor them. It is His will that they should be ever moving forward to receive the increased and ever-increasing light which is shining for them. The present attitude of the church is not pleasing to God. There has come in a self-confidence that has led them to feel no necessity for more truth and greater light. We are living at a time when Satan is at work on the right hand and on the left, before and behind us; and yet as a people we are asleep. God wills that a voice shall be heard arousing His people to action.

“Lapho abantu bakaNkulunkulu benokuthula bezanelisa ngokukhanyiselwa kwabo kwamanje, singaqiniseka ukuthi Yena ngeke abamukele ngomusa. Kuyintando Yakhe ukuthi bahlale beqhubekela phambili ukuze bamukele ukukhanya okwengeziwe nokuhlala kwanda okubakhanyiselayo. Isimo samanje sebandla asimthokozisi uNkulunkulu. Sekungenile ukuzethemba okwenze ukuba bazizwe bengasenasidingo seqiniso elengeziwe nokukhanya okukhulu. Siphila esikhathini lapho uSathane esebenza khona ngakwesokunene nangakwesokhohlo, phambi kwethu nangemva kwethu; nokho thina njengabantu silele. UNkulunkulu uthanda ukuba kuzwakale izwi elivusa abantu Bakhe ukuba bangene esenzweni.

“Instead of opening the soul to receive rays of light from heaven, some have been working in an opposite direction. Both through the press and from the pulpit have been presented views in regard to the inspiration of the Bible which have not the sanction of the Spirit or the word of God. Certain it is that no man or set of men should undertake to advance theories upon a subject of so great importance, without a plain ‘Thus saith the Lord’ to sustain them. And when men, compassed with human infirmities, affected in a greater or less degree by surrounding influences, and having hereditary and cultivated tendencies which are far from making them wise or heavenly-minded, undertake to arraign the word of God, and to pass judgment upon what is divine and what is human, they are working without the counsel of God. The Lord will not prosper such a work. The effect will be disastrous, both upon the one engaged in it and upon those who accept it as a work from God. Skepticism has been aroused in many minds by the theories presented as to the nature of inspiration. Finite beings, with their narrow, short-sighted views, feel themselves competent to criticize the Scriptures, saying: ‘This passage is needful, and that passage is not needful, and is not inspired.’

“Esikhundleni sokuvulela umphefumulo ukuze wemukele imisebe yokukhanya evela ezulwini, abanye bebelokhu besebenza ngendlela ephambene. Kokubili ngokomshini wokunyathelisa nasemapulpitini kuye kwethulwa imibono mayelana nokuphefumulelwa kweBhayibheli engenakho ukuvunywa nguMoya noma izwi likaNkulunkulu. Kuyiqiniso elingenakuphikwa ukuthi akukho muntu noma iqoqo labantu okufanele lizame ukuqhubekisela phambili imfundiso ngendaba ebaluleke kangaka ngaphandle kokuba nesisekelo esisobala esithi, ‘Isho kanje iNkosi,’ sokuyisekela. Futhi lapho abantu, abazingelezwe ubuthakathaka bobuntu, bethinteka ngezinga elikhulu noma elincane yizimo ezibazungezile, futhi benokuthambekela okungokofuzo nokukhuliswe ngendlela ekude kakhulu nokubenza babe ngabahlakaniphileyo noma abacabanga ngezasezulwini, bethatha isibindi sokubiza izwi likaNkulunkulu ukuba liziphendulele, nokwahlulela ukuthi yini eyobuNkulunkulu nokuthi yini eyobuntu, basebenza ngaphandle kweseluleko sikaNkulunkulu. INkosi ayiyikuphumelelisa umsebenzi onjalo. Umphumela wawo uyakuba yinhlekelele, kokubili kulowo owenza lowo msebenzi nakulabo abawemukelayo njengomsebenzi ovela kuNkulunkulu. Ukungabaza sekuvuswe ezingqondweni eziningi yimfundiso eyethuliwe mayelana nesimo sokuphefumulelwa. Izidalwa ezinomkhawulo, ezinemibono emincane, efushane ukubona, zizizwa zifanele ukugxeka imiBhalo, zithi: ‘Lesi siqephu siyadingeka, kodwa leso siqephu asidingeki, futhi asiphefumulelwe.’”

“Christ gave no such instruction in regard to the Old Testament Scriptures, the only part of the Bible which the people of His time possessed. His teachings were designed to direct their minds to the Old Testament and to bring into clearer light the great themes there presented. For ages the people of Israel had been separating themselves from God, and they had lost sight of precious truths which He had committed to them. These truths were covered up with superstitious forms and ceremonies that concealed their true significance. Christ came to remove the rubbish which had obscured their luster. He placed them, as precious gems, in a new setting. He showed that so far from disdaining the repetition of old, familiar truths, He came to make them appear in their true force and beauty, the glory of which had never been discerned by the men of His time. Himself the Author of these revealed truths, He could open to the people their true meaning, freeing them from the misinterpretations and false theories adopted by the leaders to suit their own unconsecrated condition, their destitution of spirituality and the love of God. He cast aside that which had robbed these truths of life and vital power, and gave them back to the world in all their original freshness and force.

“UKristu akazange anike umyalo onjalo mayelana nemiBhalo yeTestamente Elidala, okuyiyona kuphela ingxenye yeBhayibheli abantu besikhathi saKhe ababeyinayo. Izimfundiso zaKhe zazihloselwe ukuqondisa izingqondo zabo eTestamenteni Elidala nokuletha ekukhanyeni okucace kakhudlwana izihloko ezinkulu ezethulwa khona. Kwaphela izinkathi abantu bakwa-Israyeli bezihlukanisa noNkulunkulu, futhi babengasaziboni izimfundiso eziyigugu ayebaphathise zona. La maqiniso ayembozwe yizimo nezinkambiso zenkolelo-ze nemikhosi eyayifihla incazelo yawo yangempela. UKristu weza ukususa imfucuza eyayisithe ukukhazimula kwawo. Wawabeka, njengamagugu ayigugu, esimisweni esisha. Wabonisa ukuthi, kude nokudelela ukuphindwa kwamaqiniso amadala, ajwayelekile, weza ukuze abonakale ngamandla awo eqiniso nangobuhle bawo beqiniso, inkazimulo yawo abantu besikhathi saKhe ababengakaze bayiqaphele. Njengoba Yena uqobo enguMqambi wala maqiniso embuliwe, wayengabavulela abantu incazelo yawo yangempela, ebakhulula ekuwahumusheni kabi nasezifundisweni ezingamanga ezamukelwa ngabaholi ukuze zivumelane nesimo sabo esingangcweliswanga, ukuswela kwabo okomoya, nokuntula uthando lukaNkulunkulu. Wakubeka eceleni lokho okwakuwaphuce ukuphila namandla abalulekile, wawabuyisela ezweni ekubo bonke ubusha bawo bokuqala nangawo wonke amandla awo.”

“If we have the Spirit of Christ and are laborers together with Him, it is ours to carry forward the work which He came to do. The truths of the Bible have again become obscured by custom, tradition, and false doctrine. The erroneous teachings of popular theology have made thousands upon thousands of skeptics and infidels. There are errors and inconsistencies which many denounce as the teaching of the Bible that are really false interpretations of Scripture, adopted during the ages of papal darkness. Multitudes have been led to cherish an erroneous conception of God, as the Jews, misled by the errors and traditions of their time, had a false conception of Christ. ‘Had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.’ It is ours to reveal to the world the true character of God. Instead of criticizing the Bible, let us seek, by precept and example, to present to the world its sacred, life-giving truths, that we may ‘show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.’

“Uma sinawo uMoya kaKristu futhi siyizisebenzi kanye Naye, kungokwethu ukuqhubekisela phambili umsebenzi Afika ukuwenza. Amaqiniso eBhayibheli asephinde afihlwa yisiko, isithethe, nemfundiso yamanga. Izimfundiso eziyiphutha zemfundiso yenkolo eyamukelekileyo zenze izinkulungwane ngezinkulungwane zaba ngabagxeki nabangakholwayo. Kukhona amaphutha nokungahambisani okuthi abaningi bakulahle njengemfundiso yeBhayibheli, kanti empeleni kuyizincazelo ezingamanga zoMbhalo, ezamukelwa phakathi neminyaka yobumnyama bobupapa. Izixuku eziningi ziholelwe ekugcineni umqondo oyiphutha ngoNkulunkulu, njengoba namaJuda, edutshulwe ngamaphutha nezithethe zesikhathi sawo, ayenomqondo oyiphutha ngoKristu. ‘Ukube babekwazi, babengeke babethele iNkosi yenkazimulo esiphambanweni.’ Kungokwethu ukwembulela izwe isimilo sikaNkulunkulu sangempela. Esikhundleni sokugxeka iBhayibheli, masifune, ngemfundiso nangesibonelo, ukwethulela izwe amaqiniso alo angcwele, anika ukuphila, ukuze ‘sishumayele ubukhosi baKhe owanibiza ukuba niphume ebumnyameni ningene ekukhanyeni kwaKhe okumangalisayo.’”

“The evils that have been gradually creeping in among us have imperceptibly led individuals and churches away from reverence for God, and have shut away the power which He desires to give them.

“Ububi obulokhu bungena kancane kancane phakathi kwethu, ngokungabonakali buhole abantu ngabanye namabandla ukuba basuke ekumhlonipheni uNkulunkulu, futhi buvale amandla afisa ukubanika wona.

“My brethren, let the word of God stand just as it is. Let not human wisdom presume to lessen the force of one statement of the Scriptures. The solemn denunciation in the Revelation should warn us against taking such ground. In the name of my Master I bid you: ‘Put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.’” Testimonies, volume 5, 707–711.

“Bazalwane bami, makelime izwi likaNkulunkulu njengoba linjalo nje. Makungabi ukuhlakanipha komuntu okuzigqajayo ukunciphisa amandla esitatimende esisodwa semiBhalo. Isixwayiso esinzima esiseSambulweni kufanele sisixwayise ekuthatheni isimo esinjalo. Ngegama leNkosi yami ngiyanala kini ngithi: ‘Khumula izicathulo zakho ezinyaweni zakho, ngokuba indawo omi kuyo ingumhlabathi ongcwele.’” Testimonies, ivolumu 5, 707–711.
