In Revelation chapter five, the Lion of the tribe of Judah represents Christ’s position as the one who prevailed to seal and unseal God’s Word according to His will. In 1989, one hundred and twenty-six years after the rebellion of 1863, the Lion of the tribe of Judah unsealed the last six verses of Daniel chapter eleven. Those verses begin with the deadly wound of the papacy in 1798, and introduce the testimony of how the papal wound is to be healed and beyond that to the final deadly wound of the papacy. The verses begin where they end; with the judgment of papal Rome.

U petom poglavlju Otkrivenja Lav iz plemena Judina predstavlja Kristov položaj kao Onoga koji je nadvladao kako bi, prema svojoj volji, zapečatio i otpečatio Božju Riječ. Godine 1989., sto dvadeset i šest godina nakon pobune iz 1863., Lav iz plemena Judina otpečatio je posljednjih šest redaka jedanaestoga poglavlja Danielove knjige. Ti redci započinju smrtonosnom ranom papinstva 1798. godine te uvode svjedočanstvo o tome kako ta papinska rana treba biti izliječena i, povrh toga, o konačnoj smrtonosnoj rani papinstva. Redci započinju ondje gdje završavaju: sa sudom nad papinskim Rimom.

Those six verses describe the healing of the papacy’s deadly wound, and also how the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and false prophet lead the world to Armageddon, which is identified in verse forty-five as “between the seas and the glorious holy mountain.”

Tih šest redaka opisuju iscjeljenje smrtonosne rane papinstva, a također i kako trostruko savezništvo zmaja, Zvijeri i lažnoga proroka vodi svijet prema Armagedonu, koji se u četrdeset i petom retku poistovjećuje s mjestom „između mora i slavne svete gore“.

Alpha and Omega represents Christ’s character of always illustrating the end with the beginning. The reform movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is the movement of the third angel, which is the ending movement that was prefigured by its beginning, which was the Millerite movement of the first and second angels. The Millerite movement began at the time of the end in 1798, which is where the last six verses of Daniel eleven begins, and the movement ended at the opening of judgment on October 22, 1844. The movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand ends at the Sunday law in the United States.

Alfa i Omega predstavlja Kristov karakter koji uvijek prikazuje svršetak početkom. Reformni pokret sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće pokret je trećega anđela, koji je završni pokret što je bio predoznačen svojim početkom, a to je bio mileritski pokret prvoga i drugoga anđela. Mileritski pokret započeo je u vrijeme svršetka 1798. godine, gdje započinje posljednjih šest stihova jedanaestoga poglavlja Daniela, a pokret je završio otvaranjem suda 22. listopada 1844. godine. Pokret sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće završava pri nedjeljnom zakonu u Sjedinjenim Državama.

At the beginning of the movement at the time of the end in 1989, the Lion of the tribe of Judah unsealed the last six verses of Daniel eleven, and at the ending of the movement, just before the Sunday law, He unseals the hidden history of verse forty of Daniel eleven. Sister White’s commentary of what part of Daniel is unsealed addresses the unsealing in 1989, and also the unsealing that began in July of 2023.

Na početku pokreta u vrijeme kraja, 1989. godine, Lav iz plemena Judina otpečatio je posljednjih šest redaka Danijela jedanaest, a na završetku pokreta, neposredno prije nedjeljnoga zakona, otpečaćuje skrivenu povijest četrdesetoga retka Danijela jedanaest. Komentar sestre White o tome koji je dio Danijela otpečaćen odnosi se na otpečaćenje 1989. godine, kao i na otpečaćenje koje je započelo u srpnju 2023. godine.

> “The book that was sealed was not the book of Revelation, but that portion of the prophecy of Daniel which related to the last days. The Scripture says, ‘But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased’ (Daniel 12:4). When the book was opened, the proclamation was made, ‘Time shall be no longer.’ (See Revelation 10:6.) The book of Daniel is now unsealed, and the revelation made by Christ to John is to come to all the inhabitants of the earth. By the increase of knowledge a people is to be prepared to stand in the latter days. . . .

> „Knjiga koja je bila zapečaćena nije bila knjiga Otkrivenja, nego onaj dio Danielova proročanstva koji se odnosio na posljednje dane. Pismo kaže: ‘A ti, Daniele, zatvori ove riječi i zapečati knjigu do vremena svršetka; mnogi će tumarati amo-tamo i znanje će se umnožiti’ (Daniel 12,4). Kada je knjiga bila otvorena, objavljen je proglas: ‘Vremena više neće biti.’ (Vidi Otkrivenje 10,6.) Knjiga proroka Daniela sada je odpečaćena, a otkrivenje koje je Krist dao Ivanu treba doći svim stanovnicima zemlje. Umnažanjem znanja narod treba biti pripravljen da opstane u posljednjim danima. . . .“

> “In the first angel’s message men are called upon to worship God, our Creator, who made the world and all things that are therein. They have paid homage to an institution of the Papacy, making of no effect the law of Jehovah, but there is to be an increase of knowledge on this subject.” Selected Messages, book 2, 105, 106.

> „U poruci prvoga anđela ljudi su pozvani štovati Boga, našega Stvoritelja, koji je stvorio svijet i sve što je u njemu. Oni su iskazivali počast ustanovi Papinstva, učinivši bez učinka Zakon Jahvin, ali treba doći do porasta spoznaje o ovome predmetu.” Selected Messages, knjiga 2, 105, 106.

The portion of the book of Daniel that related to the last days in 1989 was the last six verses of chapter eleven, and as the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand reaches the ending of their movement, the portion of the book of Daniel that is unsealed is the hidden history of verse forty, which represents the history of 1989 unto the Sunday law in the United States. The hidden history of verse forty is the history of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. Every prophet provides witness to that period.

Dio knjige proroka Daniela koji se odnosio na posljednje dane 1989. godine bio je posljednjih šest redaka jedanaestoga poglavlja, a kako pokret sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće doseže završetak svoga kretanja, dio knjige proroka Daniela koji se otpečaćuje jest skrivena povijest četrdesetoga retka, koja predstavlja povijest od 1989. godine pa do nedjeljnoga zakona u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama. Skrivena povijest četrdesetoga retka jest povijest sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće. Svaki prorok daje svjedočanstvo o tom razdoblju.

In the passage, an increase of knowledge that “is to prepare a people to stand in the last days,” represents the unsealing of the last six verses in 1989, and again it represents the unsealing of the hidden history of verse forty. In both histories inspiration identifies that there is to be an increase of knowledge upon the papal power and the Sunday law. In both the beginning and ending of the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand the increase of knowledge produces a three-step testing process, as represented in Daniel chapter twelve.

U odlomku povećanje znanja koje „treba pripraviti narod da opstane u posljednjim danima“ predstavlja otpečaćenje posljednjih šest redaka 1989. godine, a ujedno predstavlja i otpečaćenje skrivene povijesti četrdesetoga retka. U objema povijestima Nadahnuće prepoznaje da treba doći do povećanja znanja o papinskoj vlasti i nedjeljnom zakonu. I na početku i na završetku pokreta sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće, povećanje znanja proizvodi trostupanjski proces kušnje, kako je prikazano u dvanaestom poglavlju Daniela.

> And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand. Daniel 12:9, 10.

> I reče: Idi svojim putem, Daniele, jer ove su riječi zatvorene i zapečaćene do vremena svršetka. Mnogi će se očistiti i ubijeliti i biti okušani; a bezbožnici će činiti bezbožno; i nijedan od bezbožnika neće razumjeti; ali mudri će razumjeti. Daniel 12,9.10.

As with all the sacred reform movements the three steps represented by Daniel as “purified, and made white, and tried” represent the waymark of the descent of a divine symbol, followed by the testing of a failed prediction, followed by a third litmus test which manifests the character of the two classes that are developed based upon their acceptance of, or their rejection of, the unsealed increase of knowledge. With the beginning of the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, the three steps were September 11, 2001, followed by July 18, 2020, and then the Sunday law. At the ending of that very same movement the three steps are July 2023, the arrival of the Midnight Cry message and the Sunday law.

Kao i kod svih svetih reformnih pokreta, tri koraka koja Daniel prikazuje kao „očišćeni, i ubijeljeni, i okušani” predstavljaju razgodak silaska božanskoga simbola, nakon čega slijedi kušnja zbog neuspjelog proročanstva, a potom i treća kušnja, poput lakmus-testa, koja očituje karakter dviju skupina što se razvijaju na temelju svojega prihvaćanja ili odbacivanja otpečaćenoga porasta znanja. Na početku pokreta sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće ta su tri koraka bila 11. rujna 2001., zatim 18. srpnja 2020., a potom nedjeljni zakon. Na završetku toga istoga pokreta ta su tri koraka srpanj 2023., dolazak poruke Ponoćnoga poklika i nedjeljni zakon.

The message that prepares God’s people to stand that was unsealed in July 2023 contains several lines of prophetic truth, and included with those lines is Ezekiel’s dead dry bones in chapter thirty-seven. Ezekiel presents two messages. The first message brings the bones back together, but it was not until the second message that Israel stood upon its feet as a mighty army. The two witnesses of Revelation chapter eleven stood up when they were filled with the Holy Spirit.

Poruka koja pripravlja Božji narod da opstane, a koja je bila odpečaćena u srpnju 2023., sadrži nekoliko linija proročke istine, a među tim linijama nalaze se i Ezekielove mrtve suhe kosti iz trideset i sedmoga poglavlja. Ezekiel iznosi dvije poruke. Prva poruka ponovno sastavlja kosti, ali tek je nakon druge poruke Izrael stao na svoje noge kao silna vojska. Dva svjedoka iz jedanaestoga poglavlja Otkrivenja ustadoše kada su bili ispunjeni Svetim Duhom.

> And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. Revelation 11:11.

> I nakon tri dana i pol duh života od Boga uđe u njih, i stadoše na svoje noge; i veliki strah obuze one koji ih gledahu. Otkrivenje 11,11.

Ezekiel teaches the same truth.

Ezekiel uči istu istinu.

> And he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee. And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me. Ezekiel 2:1, 2.

> I reče mi: Sine čovječji, stani na noge svoje, i govorit ću s tobom. I duh uđe u me kad mi progovori, i postavi me na noge moje, te čuh onoga koji mi govoraše. Ezekiel 2:1, 2.

When Sister White says “by the increase of knowledge a people is to be prepared to stand in the latter days.” The increase of knowledge is identified as “oil” in the parable of the ten virgins, and the “oil” represents “the messages of God’s Spirit” and also “the Holy Spirit,” as well as “character.”

Kad sestra White kaže: „po umnažanju znanja narod treba biti pripravljen da opstane u posljednjim danima.” Umnažanje znanja u prispodobi o deset djevica poistovjećuje se s „uljem”, a „ulje” predstavlja „poruke Božjega Duha” i također „Duha Svetoga”, kao i „karakter”.

Between July 2023 and the soon-coming Sunday law there is an increase of knowledge that brings God’s people to life, and they stand up. They stand up representing that they have the “oil” of the message that was unsealed at that time. They stand up when they have the Holy Spirit within their vessels, and they stand up when they have a character prepared for the seal of God.

Između srpnja 2023. i uskoro nadolazećega nedjeljnoga zakona postoji porast spoznaje koji oživljuje Božji narod, te oni ustaju. Oni ustaju predstavljajući da imaju „ulje” poruke koja je u to vrijeme bila otpečaćena. Oni ustaju kada imaju Duha Svetoga u svojim posudama, i ustaju kada imaju karakter pripremljen za pečat Božji.

The first testing step that began in July 2023, was followed by a period that allows those candidates to accept or reject the oil. Those that accept are sealed and are then lifted up as an ensign at the soon-coming Sunday law. Those who reject the oil, receive strong delusion.

Prvi korak kušnje, koji je započeo u srpnju 2023., bio je praćen razdobljem koje tim kandidatima omogućuje da prihvate ili odbace ulje. Oni koji prihvate bivaju zapečaćeni te potom podignuti kao stijeg pri uskoro nadolazećem nedjeljnom zakonu. Oni koji odbace ulje primaju silnu zabludu.

Those candidates were awakened out of spiritual sleep in July 2023, and they then were confronted with the final testing process before the close of their individual probation. The testing process was set within the context of a prophetic test associated with the formation of the image of the beast, during the time when those very candidates were to come back to life and form the image of Christ within. The prophetic structure where the test is to be accomplished is the history of 1989 unto the Sunday law. The inability of those candidates to wake up led the Lord to allow heresies to come in.

Ti su kandidati bili probuđeni iz duhovnoga sna u srpnju 2023., a potom su bili suočeni sa završnim procesom kušnje prije zaključenja svojega pojedinačnog vremena kušnje. Proces kušnje bio je postavljen u kontekst proročkoga ispita povezanoga s oblikovanjem slike Zvijeri, u vrijeme kada su upravo ti kandidati trebali ponovno oživjeti i u sebi oblikovati sliku Kristovu. Proročka struktura unutar koje se taj ispit treba izvršiti jest povijest od 1989. do nedjeljnoga zakona. Nesposobnost tih kandidata da se probude navela je Gospodina da dopusti ulazak hereza.

> “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.” Testimonies, volume 5, 708.

> „Bog će probuditi svoj narod; ako druga sredstva zakažu, među njima će se pojaviti krivovjerja koja će ih prosijati, odvajajući kukolj od pšenice. Gospodin poziva sve koji vjeruju Njegovoj riječi da se probude iz sna. Došla je dragocjena svjetlost, prikladna za ovo vrijeme. To je biblijska istina koja pokazuje pogibli što su upravo pred nama. Ova bi nas svjetlost trebala voditi na marljivo proučavanje Svetoga pisma i na najkritičnije ispitivanje stajališta koja zastupamo. Bog želi da se svi vidovi i sva stajališta istine temeljito i ustrajno istražuju, uz molitvu i post.” Svjedočanstva, svezak 5, 708.

All the prophets address the last days, so in these last days, in July of 2023, the Lord attempted to “arouse” His people, but His efforts failed, and He allowed the first controversy over a symbol of Rome in Advent history to be repeated as a warning of the nearness of the end. He did this, even though “precious light” had “come, appropriate for this time.” The light that arrived in July 2023 is “Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us.” That light should have led “us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examinations of the positions which we hold.”

Svi proroci govore o posljednjim danima, stoga je u ovim posljednjim danima, u srpnju 2023., Gospod pokušao „probuditi“ svoj narod, ali su Njegovi napori bili bezuspješni, te je dopustio da se kao upozorenje na blizinu svršetka ponovi prvo prijeporno pitanje o simbolu Rima u adventnoj povijesti. To je učinio premda je „dragocjena svjetlost“ „došla, prikladna za ovo vrijeme“. Svjetlost koja je došla u srpnju 2023. jest „biblijska istina, koja pokazuje pogibli koje su upravo pred nama“. Ta je svjetlost trebala navesti „nas na marljivo proučavanje Svetoga pisma i na najkritičnije ispitivanje stajališta koja zastupamo.“

The hidden history of verse forty is represented in verses ten through fifteen of Daniel eleven, for Alpha and Omega illustrated the end of Daniel’s final prophecy, with its beginning. Leading up to the disappointment of July 18, 2020, Satan had introduced confusion over verses ten through fifteen, for he knew the beginning of the chapter was the key to represent the end of the chapter. Then the original controversy of verse fourteen was introduced.

Skrivena povijest četrdesetoga retka prikazana je u recima deset do petnaest jedanaestoga poglavlja Daniela, jer su Alfa i Omega, s njezinim početkom, predočili svršetak Danielova posljednjeg proročanstva. Uoči razočaranja 18. srpnja 2020., Sotona je unio pomutnju u pogledu redaka deset do petnaest, jer je znao da je početak poglavlja ključ za prikaz njegova završetka. Tada je uvedena izvorna kontroverza četrnaestoga retka.

> “There is nothing that the great deceiver fears so much as that we shall become acquainted with his devices.” The Great Controversy, 516.

> „Ništa ne postoji čega se veliki varalica toliko boji kao toga da se upoznamo s njegovim smicalicama.“ Velika borba, 516.

It is obvious by the satanic attempts to confuse the meaning and purpose of those verses, that they are an important part of the testing process that is now sifting the candidates to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand. Sister White emphasizes that the history represented in Daniel eleven that has been fulfilled before the time of the end in 1798 is repeated in the final six verses.

Očito je po sotonskim pokušajima da unesu pomutnju u značenje i svrhu tih redaka da su oni važan dio procesa kušanja koji sada prosijava kandidate da budu među sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće. Sestra White naglašava da se povijest prikazana u Danielu jedanaest, koja se ispunila prije vremena svršetka 1798. godine, ponavlja u posljednjih šest redaka.

> “We have no time to lose. Troublous times are before us. The world is stirred with the spirit of war. Soon the scenes of trouble spoken of in the prophecies will take place. The prophecy in the eleventh of Daniel has nearly reached its complete fulfillment. Much of the history that has taken place in fulfillment of this prophecy will be repeated.” Manuscript Releases, number 13, 394.

> „Nemamo vremena za gubljenje. Pred nama su teška vremena. Svijet je uzburkan ratničkim duhom. Uskoro će se odigrati prizori nevolje o kojima se govori u proročanstvima. Proročanstvo u jedanaestom poglavlju Daniela gotovo je doseglo svoje potpuno ispunjenje. Mnogo od povijesti koja se odigrala u ispunjenju toga proročanstva ponovit će se.” Manuscript Releases, broj 13, 394.

I contend that all the history represented in verses one through thirty-nine are repeated in the last six verses of the chapter. I also contend that the history of the last days, which is the history of the conclusion of the judgment which began on October 22, 1844, is represented with two primary prophetic periods. The first period represents the judgment that is accomplished upon the house of God, that is then followed by a period when judgment is accomplished for those outside of the house of God. The first period began in 1989 and ends at the Sunday law in the United States, which in turn marks the beginning of the second period which concludes when Michael stands up and human probation closes. The hidden history of verse forty also begins in 1989, and ends in verse forty-one, which is the Sunday law in the United States.

Tvrdim da se sva povijest predstavljena u redcima jedan do trideset i devet ponavlja u posljednjih šest redaka poglavlja. Također tvrdim da je povijest posljednjih dana, koja je povijest završetka suda koji je započeo 22. listopada 1844., predstavljena s dva glavna proročka razdoblja. Prvo razdoblje predstavlja sud koji se izvršava nad domom Božjim, nakon čega slijedi razdoblje u kojem se sud izvršava za one izvan doma Božjega. Prvo je razdoblje započelo 1989. i završava zakonom o nedjelji u Sjedinjenim Državama, koji zauzvrat označuje početak drugoga razdoblja, koje završava kada Mihael ustane i ljudska kušnja dođe svome kraju. Skrivena povijest četrdesetoga retka također započinje 1989. i završava u četrdeset i prvom retku, što je zakon o nedjelji u Sjedinjenim Državama.

That is the same history as verse ten through fifteen of the same chapter. That history parallels the history of the Millerites from the time of the end in 1798, until judgment began on October 22, 1844. Those two histories run parallel with the prophetic history that began at the birth of Christ and concluded at the cross.

To je ista povijest kao u desetom do petnaestog retka istoga poglavlja. Ta povijest teče usporedno s poviješću milerita od vremena svršetka 1798. godine pa sve dok sud nije započeo 22. listopada 1844. Te dvije povijesti teku usporedno s proročkom poviješću koja je započela Kristovim rođenjem i završila na križu.

The history beginning in 1989, includes the testing period that began on September 11, 2001, as typified by the period of testing that began on August 11, 1840 and the testing period that began at Christ’s baptism. The formation of the image of the beast has been typified by several lines of prophetic history. One of those representations of the same period of time is the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand that began on September 11, 2001 and is finished at the soon coming Sunday law. The hidden history of verse forty can also be overlaid with the line of October 22, 1844 until the rebellion of 1863.

Povijest koja započinje 1989. uključuje razdoblje kušnje koje je započelo 11. rujna 2001., kako je predočeno razdobljem kušnje koje je započelo 11. kolovoza 1840. i razdobljem kušnje koje je započelo Kristovim krštenjem. Oblikovanje slike Zvijeri bilo je predočeno u nekoliko linija proročke povijesti. Jedan od tih prikaza istoga vremenskog razdoblja jest vrijeme pečaćenja sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće, koje je započelo 11. rujna 2001. i završava pri uskoro dolazećem nedjeljnom zakonu. Skrivena povijest četrdesetoga retka može se također preklopiti s linijom od 22. listopada 1844. do pobune 1863.

October 22, 1844 marked the arrival of the third angel. As with the arrival of any prophetic angel, he had a message which was to be eaten, but it was not to be; and Philadelphian Millerism changed unto Laodicean Millerism, in advance of 1863, when they formally took the name Seventh-day Adventist and began to wander in the wilderness of rebellion to this very day. The history of 1844 unto 1863 represents those who reject the calling to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand. They are Daniel’s wicked in chapter twelve, Jeremiah’s assembly of mockers, John’s synagogue of Satan and Matthew’s foolish virgins.

Dvadeset i drugi listopada 1844. označio je dolazak trećega anđela. Kao i pri dolasku svakoga proročkog anđela, imao je poruku koju je trebalo pojesti, ali to nije bilo; te se filadelfijski milerizam promijenio u laodicejski milerizam, prije 1863., kada su formalno uzeli ime Adventisti sedmoga dana i počeli lutati u pustinji pobune sve do ovoga dana. Povijest od 1844. do 1863. predstavlja one koji odbacuju poziv da budu među sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće. Oni su Danielovi zli u dvanaestome poglavlju, Jeremijina zajednica podrugljivaca, Ivanova sinagoga Sotonina i Matejeve lude djevice.

The warning message represented by Christ as the “abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet” represents a warning to flee in advance of the destruction and scattering that is to follow. In the year 66 AD, the Roman general Cestius fulfilled that warning to the Christians of the era of pagan Rome. In the first century the apostle Paul recorded the same warning for the Christians that would suffer during the era of papal Rome. The warning for Sabbath-keepers to move out of the cities and live in the country came in 1888, the same year as the Blair Bill, the first attempt to establish Sunday as the National Day of Rest. The Blair Bill was the warning to flee in fulfillment of Christ’s reference of Daniel’s abomination of desolation.

Poruka upozorenja koju Krist predstavlja kao „gnusobu pustoši o kojoj govori prorok Daniel“ označava upozorenje da se unaprijed pobjegne prije razaranja i raspršenja koji će uslijediti. Godine 66. po. Kr. rimski vojskovođa Cestije ispunio je to upozorenje kršćanima razdoblja poganskoga Rima. U prvome stoljeću apostol Pavao zabilježio je isto upozorenje za kršćane koji će stradati tijekom razdoblja papinskoga Rima. Upozorenje svetkovateljima subote da napuste gradove i žive na selu došlo je 1888. godine, iste godine kad i Blair Bill, prvi pokušaj da se nedjelja uspostavi kao Nacionalni dan odmora. Blair Bill bio je upozorenje na bijeg, u ispunjenju Kristove reference na Danielovu gnusobu pustoši.

As with Cestius in the year 66 AD, the Blair Bill was providentially withdrawn. 1888 typifies September 11, 2001, for Sister White marks the descent of the angel of Revelation eighteen in both histories. The warning to flee the cities in the last days became in force on September 11, 2001. Therefore, the Blair Bill of 1888, typified the Patriot Act of 2001. The angel who descended on September 11, 2001 proclaims the final warning message in the first three verses of Revelation eighteen, and the final warning message is also the third angel’s message, even though the message represented by the third angel in chapter fourteen is not the same expressions of truth as in chapter eighteen. Line upon line they are the same warning message.

Kao što je bilo s Cestijem godine 66. po. Kr., tako je i Blair Bill providonosno bio povučen. Godina 1888. predoznačuje 11. rujna 2001., jer sestra White u obje povijesti označava silazak anđela iz osamnaestog poglavlja Otkrivenja. Upozorenje da se u posljednjim danima bježi iz gradova stupilo je na snagu 11. rujna 2001. Stoga je Blair Bill iz 1888. predoznačavao Patriot Act iz 2001. Anđeo koji je sišao 11. rujna 2001. objavljuje posljednju poruku upozorenja u prva tri retka osamnaestog poglavlja Otkrivenja, a posljednja poruka upozorenja ujedno je i poruka trećeg anđela, premda poruka koju predstavlja treći anđeo u četrnaestom poglavlju nije izražena istim izrazima istine kao u osamnaestom poglavlju. Red po red, one su ista poruka upozorenja.

The abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet was a sign given by Christ that identified when His people were to flee for their protection. It is a warning message, and therefore must be the final warning message, though it is expressed with different words than the message represented in chapter fourteen as well as chapter eighteen of Revelation. The history that begins in verse sixteen, of Jeremiah fifteen, is the same prophetic period of the warning testing message. It begins when Jeremiah eats God’s Word, and that occurs when the angel descends, as He did when the great buildings of New York City came down.

Gnusoba pustoši, o kojoj je govorio prorok Daniel, bila je znak što ga je Krist dao kako bi označio kada Njegov narod treba pobjeći radi svoje zaštite. To je poruka upozorenja, i stoga mora biti posljednja poruka upozorenja, premda je izražena drukčijim riječima od poruke predstavljene u četrnaestom, kao i u osamnaestom poglavlju Otkrivenja. Povijest koja započinje u šesnaestom retku, Jeremije petnaest, isto je proročko razdoblje poruke upozorenja koja stavlja na kušnju. Ona započinje kada Jeremija jede Božju Riječ, a to se događa kada anđeo silazi, kao što je učinio kada su se velike zgrade New York Cityja srušile.

When Jeremiah proclaims, “Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart,” he represents Daniel’s first test upon diet in chapter one, and John in chapter ten of Revelation taking the book out of the angel’s hand and eating it. The eating of the message begins when an angel arrives, and when the angel arrives there is a testing prophecy that is unsealed. When the angel arrives the first testing period begins and it ends when the second testing period begins, and when Michael stands up, the second testing period ends.

Kada Jeremija objavljuje: „Nađoše se riječi tvoje, i ja ih pojedoh; i riječ tvoja bijaše mi radost i veselje srca mojega”, on predstavlja Danielovu prvu kušnju u pogledu hrane u prvom poglavlju, kao i Ivana u desetom poglavlju Otkrivenja, gdje uzima knjižicu iz ruke anđelove i jede je. Jedenje poruke započinje kada anđeo dolazi, a kada anđeo dolazi, otpečaćuje se proročanstvo kušnje. Kada anđeo dolazi, započinje prvo razdoblje kušnje, i ono završava kada započinje drugo razdoblje kušnje; a kada Mihovil ustane, drugo razdoblje kušnje završava.

When the angel arrives, the latter rain begins to fall.

Kad anđeo stigne, kasna kiša počinje padati.

> “The latter rain is to fall upon the people of God. A mighty angel is to come down from heaven, and the whole earth is to be lighted with his glory.” Review and Herald, April 21, 1891.

> „Kasna kiša treba pasti na Božji narod. Silan anđeo treba sići s neba, i sva će zemlja biti obasjana njegovom slavom.“ Review and Herald, 21. travnja 1891.

The latter rain is received by those who walk in Jeremiah’s old paths.

Kasna kiša prima se od onih koji hode starim stazama Jeremijinim.

> Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. Jeremiah 6:16, 17.

> Ovako govori Gospodin: Stanite na putovima i pogledajte, i pitajte za drevne staze: koji je put dobar, i idite njime, pa ćete naći pokoj dušama svojim. Ali oni rekoše: Nećemo ići njime. I postavih nad vama stražare govoreći: Poslušajte glas trube. Ali oni rekoše: Nećemo poslušati. Jeremija 6:16, 17.

The “trumpet” the “watchmen” sound is the Laodicean message, that Jones and Waggoner presented in 1888.

„Truba” koju „stražari” oglašavaju jest laodicejska poruka koju su Jones i Waggoner iznijeli 1888. godine.

> Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Isaiah 58:1.

> Viči iz svega glasa, ne susteži se, podigni svoj glas kao trubu i objavi mojemu narodu njegov prijestup, i domu Jakovljevu njegove grijehe. Izaija 58,1.

On September 11, 2001 the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand began. A warning message to Laodicea was proclaimed.

Dana 11. rujna 2001. započelo je pečaćenje sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće. Objavljena je poruka upozorenja Laodiceji.

> “The message given us by A. T. Jones, and E. J. Waggoner is the message of God to the Laodicean church, and woe be unto anyone who professes to believe the truth and yet does not reflect to others the God-given rays.” The 1888 Materials, 1053.

> „Poruka koju su nam donijeli A. T. Jones i E. J. Waggoner jest Božja poruka laodicejskoj crkvi, i teško svakomu tko tvrdi da vjeruje istinu, a ipak drugima ne odražava božanski dane zrake.“ The 1888 Materials, 1053.

The warning to Laodicea is the sound of Jeremiah’s watchmen’s trumpet that the Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist church refuses to hear. It is the warning to flee the cities for country property in advance of the soon coming Sunday law.

Upozorenje Laodiceji zvuk je trube Jeremijinih stražara, koju laodicejska Crkva adventista sedmoga dana odbija čuti. To je upozorenje da se pobjegne iz gradova na seoska imanja prije uskoro nadolazećega nedjeljnog zakona.

What I just stated concerning these various prophetic lines, was an attempt to stimulate your discernment in an attempt to encourage you to truly test what I am about to write. Perhaps the most important characteristic of the image to and of the beast is that there are two formations of an image of and to the beast in the last days. The first, in the United States, and thereafter in the nations of the world.

Ono što sam upravo iznio u vezi s tim različitim proročkim linijama bio je pokušaj da potaknem vaše rasuđivanje kako bih vas ohrabrio da doista iskušate ono što ću uskoro napisati. Možda je najvažnije obilježje slike Zvijeri i Zvijeri to što u posljednjim danima postoje dva oblikovanja slike Zvijeri i Zvijeri. Prvo u Sjedinjenim Državama, a potom u narodima svijeta.

There are certain prophetic characteristics associated with the image to and of the beast that are required to rightly apply if we are to navigate through the prophetic testing process of this image of Rome. A second important element of the testing period of the image of the beast (that can be shown on several witnesses), is that the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand occurs in the period of the image of the beast test in the United States, and that the period of the image of the beast test in the nations of the world is when God’s other children who are still in Babylon at the time of that Sunday law (represented by 321), are gathered into the fold.

Postoje određena proročka obilježja povezana sa slikom zvijeri i zvijeri, koja je nužno ispravno primijeniti želimo li proći kroz proročki proces kušanja te slike Rima. Drugi važan element razdoblja kušnje slike zvijeri (što se može pokazati na temelju više svjedočanstava) jest da se vrijeme pečaćenja sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće odvija u razdoblju kušnje slike zvijeri u Sjedinjenim Državama, te da je razdoblje kušnje slike zvijeri u narodima svijeta vrijeme kada se druga Božja djeca, koja su još uvijek u Babilonu u vrijeme toga nedjeljnog zakona (predstavljenog brojem 321), sabiru u tor.

The image of the beast represents two specific interconnected periods of testing time, and those two testing times also represent the final gathering of the one hundred and forty-four thousand of Revelation chapter seven, followed by the great multitude in the very same chapter.

Slika Zvijeri predstavlja dva određena međusobno povezana razdoblja vremena kušnje, a ta dva vremena kušnje također predstavljaju završno sabiranje sto četrdeset i četiri tisuće iz sedmoga poglavlja Otkrivenja, nakon čega slijedi veliko mnoštvo u istome poglavlju.

At the Sunday law the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven of Revelation chapter thirteen. It then goes forth to deceive all the nations of the world saying to those nations that they should also make a worldwide image to the beast, as the United States just did. The period that begins at the Sunday law, represented by Constantine’s Sunday law of 321, ends when the final nation kneels to papal Rome, where the Sunday law of 538 is represented, for in chapter thirteen the United States has the power to bring the image to the beast to life and cause it to speak. The period begins with the Sunday law of 321 and ends with the Sunday law of 538.

Pri nedjeljnom zakonu Sjedinjene Američke Države govore kao zmaj u jedanaestom retku trinaestog poglavlja Otkrivenja. Tada izlaze da zavedu sve narode svijeta, govoreći tim narodima da i oni trebaju načiniti svjetsku sliku Zvijeri, kao što su upravo učinile Sjedinjene Američke Države. Razdoblje koje započinje pri nedjeljnom zakonu, predstavljeno Konstantinovim nedjeljnim zakonom iz 321. godine, završava kada se posljednji narod pokloni papinskom Rimu, gdje je predstavljen nedjeljni zakon iz 538. godine, jer u trinaestom poglavlju Sjedinjene Američke Države imaju moć da ožive sliku Zvijeri i učine da ona progovori. Razdoblje započinje nedjeljnim zakonom iz 321. godine i završava nedjeljnim zakonom iz 538. godine.

In 2001 the government of the United States “spoke” the Patriot Act into law.

Godine 2001. vlada Sjedinjenih Američkih Država „proglasila” je Patriot Act zakonom.
