In Isaiah twenty-eight the “scornful men which rule” “Jerusalem” are represented as the “drunkards of Ephraim,” and as the “crown of pride.” “Crown” represents leadership and “pride” represents a satanic character.

A cikin Ishaya ashirin da takwas, an wakilci “masu ba’a waɗanda suke mulki” a “Urushalima” a matsayin “mashayan Ifraimu,” kuma a matsayin “rawanin girman kai.” “Rawani” yana wakiltar jagoranci, kuma “girman kai” yana wakiltar halin Shaidan.

The drunkards are contrasted with the remnant (“residue”) who become God’s “crown” of glory, for during the latter rain the Lord sets up His “kingdom of glory” as typified by Him setting up the “kingdom of grace” at the cross. The kingdom of grace at the cross typifies the kingdom of glory at the Sunday law. The latter rain began on 9/11 when the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand and the judgment of the living began.

An bambanta mashaya da ragowar (“sauran”) waɗanda suka zama “rawanin” ɗaukakar Allah, gama a lokacin ruwan sama na ƙarshen lokaci Ubangiji yana kafa “mulkin” ɗaukakarsa kamar yadda aka misalta da yadda Ya kafa “mulkin alheri” a kan gicciye. Mulkin alheri a kan gicciye yana misalta mulkin ɗaukaka a lokacin dokar Lahadi. Ruwan sama na ƙarshen lokaci ya fara a ranar 9/11 sa’ad da shafe hatimin dubu ɗari da arba’in da huɗu ya fara, tare da shari’ar masu rai.

> “I saw that all things are intensely looking and stretching their thoughts on the impending crisis before them. The sins of Israel must go to judgment beforehand. Every sin must be confessed at the sanctuary, then the work will move. It must be done now. The remnant in the time of trouble will cry, My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken me?

> “Na ga cewa dukan abubuwa suna dubawa da tsananin kulawa kuma suna miƙa tunaninsu ga rikicin da yake gab da aukawa a gabansu. Dole ne zunuban Isra’ila su tafi zuwa ga shari’a tun da fari. Kowane zunubi dole ne a furta shi a Wuri Mai Tsarki, sa’an nan aikin zai ci gaba. Dole ne a yi wannan yanzu. Ragowar a lokacin wahala za su yi kuka, Allahna, Allahna, don me Ka yashe ni?”

> “The latter rain is coming on those that are pure—all then will receive it as formerly.

> “Ruwan sama na ƙarshe yana zuwa bisa waɗanda suke tsarkaka—sa’an nan duk za su karɓe shi kamar yadda ya kasance a dā.

> “When the four angels let go, Christ will set up His kingdom. None receive the latter rain but those who are doing all they can. Christ would help us. All could be overcomers by the grace of God, through the blood of Jesus. All heaven is interested in the work. Angels are interested.” Spalding and Magan, 3.

> “Sa’ad da mala’ikun huɗu suka saki, Almasihu zai kafa mulkinsa. Ba wanda zai karɓi ruwan sama na ƙarshe sai waɗanda suke yin dukan abin da za su iya. Almasihu zai taimake mu. Kowa zai iya yin nasara ta wurin alherin Allah, ta wurin jinin Yesu. Dukan sama tana da sha’awa cikin aikin. Mala’iku suna da sha’awa.” Spalding and Magan, 3.

The four winds of Revelation are also represented by Isaiah as a rough wind that had been stayed during the day of the east wind, as are Revelation’s four winds of strife held in check by the four angels. The four winds are identified as an “angry horse seeking to break loose” bringing “death and destruction” by Sister White. The four winds are progressively released, beginning at 9/11 then greatly amplified at the Sunday law, and then fully loosed when human probation closes.

## Released and Restrained

An Saki kuma An Ƙuntata

The seventh trumpet, which is also the third woe, which announces the finishing of the mystery of God was prophetically sounded at 9/11 when Islam was released and then prophetically restrained by George W. Bush post-911. The mother of Islam, Hagar, Ishmael’s mother is a symbol of restraint and release. She was released by Sarah to procreate with Abraham by Sarah, then because of jealousy she was restrained by Sarah, causing Hagar to run away, until the angel restrained Hagar from running and told her to return. After the birth of Isaac, the strife of Hagar and Sarah continued until Abraham cast out the bondwoman, thus placing another restraint upon her.

Ƙaho na bakwai, wanda shi ne kuma masifa ta uku, wanda yake shelar cikar asirin Allah, an busa shi ta annabci a 9/11 sa’ad da aka saki Musulunci, sannan daga baya George W. Bush ya ƙuntata shi ta annabci bayan 9/11. Uwar Musulunci, Hajara, mahaifiyar Isma’ilu, alama ce ta ƙuntatawa da sakewa.

Bayan haihuwar Ishaku, saɓanin Hajara da Saratu ya ci gaba har Ibrahim ya kori baiwar, ta haka kuma ya ɗora mata wani sabon ƙuntatawa.

The four angels of Islam were released at the beginning of the three hundred and ninety-one year and fifteen-day prophecy of Revelation chapter nine verse fifteen and they were then restrained on August 11, 1840.

An sake su mala’iku huɗu na Musulunci a farkon annabcin shekarun ɗari uku da casa’in da ɗaya da kwanaki goma sha biyar na Ru’ya ta Yohanna sura ta tara aya ta goma sha biyar, sa’an nan kuma aka hana su ci gaba a ranar 11 ga Agusta, 1840.

> And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. Revelation 9:13–15.

> Sai mala’ika na shida ya busa ƙaho, sai na ji wata murya daga ƙahoni huɗu na bagaden zinariya wanda yake a gaban Allah, tana cewa wa mala’ikan na shida wanda yake da ƙahon, Ka sake mala’iku huɗu waɗanda ake ɗaure da su a babban kogin Yufiretis. Sai aka sake mala’iku huɗun nan, waɗanda aka shirya domin sa’a guda, da yini guda, da wata guda, da shekara guda, domin su kashe sulusin mutane. Ru’ya ta Yohanna 9:13–15.

After Islam of the third woe was released to attack at 9/11, George W. Bush initiated his worldwide war on terrorism and put a restraint on Islam. The first mention of Ishmael, the symbol of Islam identifies that Ishmael descendants would be against every man and every man would be against them.

Bayan an saki Musulunci na annoba ta uku ya kai hari a ranar 9/11, George W. Bush ya ƙaddamar da yaƙinsa na duniya baki ɗaya da ta’addanci kuma ya sanya takunkumi a kan Musulunci. Ambato na farko game da Ishma’ilu, alamar Musulunci, ya bayyana cewa zuriyarsa za ta kasance gaba da kowane mutum, kuma kowane mutum zai kasance gaba da su.

> And the angel of the Lord said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the Lord hath heard thy affliction. And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. Genesis 16:11, 12.

> Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya ce mata, Ga shi, kina da ciki, za ki haifi ɗa, kuma za ki sa masa suna Isma’ilu; domin Ubangiji ya ji wahalarki. Kuma zai zama mutum ne na jeji; hannunsa zai yi gaba da kowane mutum, hannun kowane mutum kuma zai yi gaba da shi; kuma zai zauna a gaban dukan ’yan’uwansa. Farawa 16:11, 12.

Islam is the power at the end of the world that “every man’s hand” will be against, and Islam will be against every man, just as it is being perfectly fulfilled today. The particular work of Islam as a symbol of prophecy is to bring about a world war. This subject is confirmed by the story of Elijah, John the Baptist and is represented as “the angering of the nations” in the book of Revelation.

> “‘The commencement of that time of trouble,’ here mentioned does not refer to the time when the plagues shall begin to be poured out, but to a short period just before they are poured out, while Christ is in the sanctuary. At that time, while the work of salvation is closing, trouble will be coming on the earth, and the nations will be angry, yet held in check so as not to prevent the work of the third angel. At that time the ‘latter rain,’ or refreshing from the presence of the Lord, will come, to give power to the loud voice of the third angel, and prepare the saints to stand in the period when the seven last plagues shall be poured out.” Early Writings, 85.

> “‘Farkon wancan lokacin wahala,’ da aka ambata a nan, ba ya nufin lokacin da za a fara zubar da annobai, sai dai wani ɗan gajeren lokaci ne kafin a zubar da su, yayinda Almasihu yake cikin Wuri Mai Tsarki.

In the “days” when the latter rain is falling, Christ sets up His kingdom of glory as represented in the book of Daniel.

A cikin “kwanaki” lokacin da ruwan sama na ƙarshe yake saukowa, Kristi yana kafa mulkinsa na ɗaukaka kamar yadda aka wakilta a cikin littafin Daniyel.

> And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Daniel 2:44.

> Kuma a kwanakin waɗannan sarakuna ne Allah na sama zai kafa mulki, wanda ba za a taɓa hallaka shi ba; kuma ba za a bar mulkin ga wasu mutane ba, amma zai farfashe ya kuma cinye dukan waɗannan mulkoki, shi kuwa zai dawwama har abada. Daniyel 2:44.

In the “days” when Christ sets up His kingdom of glory, those who are Christ’s “crown” of glory are contrasted with the drunkards who wear the “crown” of pride. Habakkuk’s “vision” that was to be written and made plain upon “tables” graphically illustrates the historical witness of the foundational truths of Adventism. In Habakkuk’s testimony Joel’s two classes of either “pride” or “glory” are represented as a class who are—justified by faith or who are—lifted up in pride. Verse four of chapter two addresses the two classes and they parallel the classic illustration of the Pharisee and the Publican. The Publican went home justified and the Pharisee’s “soul” is “not upright” for it is “lifted up.”

A cikin “kwanakin” da Almasihu zai kafa mulkinsa na ɗaukaka, waɗanda suke na Almasihu, waɗanda su ne “rawaninsa” na ɗaukaka, an gwada su da mashaya waɗanda suke sanye da “rawanin” girman kai. “Wahayi” na Habakkuk da aka umarta a rubuta a sarari a kan “alluna” yana bayyanawa a fili shaidar tarihi ta muhimman gaskiyoyin asali na Adventism. A cikin shaidar Habakkuk an wakilci rukuni biyu na Joel, na ko dai “girma kai” ko kuma “ɗaukaka”, a matsayin rukunin da ko dai—an barata su ta wurin bangaskiya ko kuma—an ɗaga su cikin girman kai. Aya ta huɗu ta sura ta biyu tana magana ne ga waɗannan rukuni biyu, kuma suna daidai da sanannen misalin Bafarisiye da Mai-karɓar Haraji. Mai-karɓar Harajin ya koma gida an barata shi, amma “ran” Bafarisiye “ba ta daidaita” domin “an ɗaga ta” cikin girman kai.

> Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2:4.

> Duba, ransa wanda ya ɗaukaka kansa ba madaidaici ba ne a cikinsa; amma mai adalci zai rayu ta wurin bangaskiyarsa. Habakkuk 2:4.

In the next verse Habakkuk identifies the class whose hearts are lifted up in pride as drunk, thus connecting Isaiah’s and Habakkuk’s drunks with “pride.”

A aya ta gaba, Habakkuk ya bayyana rukunin waɗanda zukatansu suka ɗaukaka cikin girman kai a matsayin mashaya, ta haka yana haɗa mashayan Ishaya da na Habakkuk da “girma kai.”

> Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people. Habakkuk 2:5.

> Hakika kuma, domin yana yin zunubi ta wurin ruwan inabi, shi mutum ne mai girman kai, ba ya zaune a gida; yana faɗaɗa muradinsa kamar lahira, kuma yana kamar mutuwa, ba kuwa ya taɓa ƙoshi ba; sai dai yakan tattara wa kansa dukan al’ummai, yakan kuma tara wa kansa dukan mutane. Habakkuk 2:5.

It is worth remembering that these verses in Habakkuk were not only fulfilled in Millerite history, but their fulfillment was a common subject of both Ellen White and the early pioneers of Adventism. Those who were justified by the faith represented in verse four of Millerite history were those who endured the crisis of the first disappointment, which marked both the tarrying time and the arrival of the second angel’s message announcing the fall of Babylon. The Millerites understood within that testing history that the former covenant people, who had been historically Protestants had become the daughters of Babylon. Those Protestants were Protestants represented by the church of Sardis, representing a covenant people, for they had a “name”, symbol of both character and covenant relationship, but they were dead.

> And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. Revelation 3:1.

> Kuma ka rubuta wa mala’ikan ikkilisiyar da take Sardis cewa; Ga abin da mai riƙe da Ruhohi bakwai na Allah, da taurari bakwai, yana faɗi; Na san ayyukanka, cewa kana da suna kamar kana da rai, alhali kuwa ka mutu. Ru’ya ta Yohanna 3:1.

In the testing process of 1844 that began on April 19 and thereafter ended on October 22—those who failed the testing process were lifted up in pride, and if we would but read the verses that follow verse five, the characteristic of human pride is there exemplified with an illustration of papal arrogance and self-exaltation. It ends in verse twenty where it is pronounced that the Lord is in His holy temple, let all the earth keep silent.

A cikin tsarin gwajin na shekara ta 1844 wanda ya fara a ranar 19 ga Afrilu kuma daga baya ya ƙare a ranar 22 ga Oktoba—waɗanda suka kasa wannan tsarin gwajin sun ɗaukaka kansu cikin girman kai, kuma idan dai za mu karanta ayoyin da suka biyo bayan aya ta biyar, a nan an misalta halin girman kan ɗan adam tare da kwatancin izza ta papanci da ɗaukaka kai.

> Amma Ubangiji yana cikin haikalinsa mai tsarki; bari dukan duniya ta yi shiru a gabansa. Habakkuk 2:20.

Verse two of Habakkuk chapter two identifies the first disappointment of April 19, 1844 and the chapter ends in verse twenty, which clearly marks October 22, 1844 when the Lord came suddenly to His temple.

Aya ta biyu ta Habakkuk sura ta biyu ta bayyana rashin cika tsammani na farko na ranar 19 ga Afrilu, 1844, kuma surar ta ƙare a aya ta ashirin, wadda a sarari take nuna ranar 22 ga Oktoba, 1844, lokacin da Ubangiji ya zo ba zato a haikalinsa.

## Four Comings on October 22, 1844 (line upon line)

Zuwo Huɗu a Ranar 22 ga Oktoba, 1844 (layi bisa layi)

> “The coming of Christ as our high priest to the most holy place, for the cleansing of the sanctuary, brought to view in Daniel 8:14; the coming of the Son of man to the Ancient of Days, as presented in Daniel 7:13; and the coming of the Lord to His temple, foretold by Malachi, are descriptions of the same event; and this is also represented by the coming of the bridegroom to the marriage, described by Christ in the parable of the ten virgins, of Matthew 25.” The Great Controversy, 426.

> “Zuwan Almasihu a matsayin babban firist namu zuwa Wuri Mafi Tsarki, domin tsarkake Wuri Mai Tsarki, kamar yadda aka bayyana a cikin Daniyel 8:14; zuwan Ɗan mutum zuwa ga Tsohon Kwanaki, kamar yadda aka gabatar a cikin Daniyel 7:13; da kuma zuwan Ubangiji zuwa haikalinsa, kamar yadda Malakai ya yi annabci, duk bayanai ne na abu ɗaya da ya faru; kuma wannan ma an wakilta shi da zuwan ango zuwa bikin aure, kamar yadda Almasihu ya bayyana a cikin misalin budurwai goma, a cikin Matiyu 25.” The Great Controversy, 426.

Verses three and four identify the two classes which are produced in the testing process of verse two through to verse twenty, the testing process of April 19, 1844 unto October 22, 1844. Verse four through nineteen are addressing the papal power with the exception of verse fourteen which addresses the history that follows the descent of the angel of Revelation chapter eighteen at 9/11.

In the testing process of the second angel in Millerite history two classes of worshippers were developed and thereafter manifested at the crisis of October 22, 1844. The character of the wicked in the passage is the character of the papacy, and in that testing period the faithful Millerites came to proclaim in agreement with the message of the second angel that the Protestant church had become the daughters of Rome through their rejection of the Millerite message. The controversy that unfolded between the starting at April 19 and the ending on October 22 is where character either as a proud drinker of Babylon’s wine as was Belshazzar or as someone who like Daniel before Belshazzar was justified by his faith. That controversy is where the drama unfolds that awakens the world to the eternal realities associated with the third angel’s message. The backdrop of the drunk verses the justified is placed within the context of the argument being how the world is enlightened to the issues, “For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.” That enlightening began at 9/11.

At the conclusion of the history represented in Habakkuk chapter two the Lord suddenly came to His temple on October 22, 1844. He did so in fulfillment of the prophecy that He set forth as Palmoni in verse fourteen of Daniel eight.

## Palmoni

Palmoni

On the tenth day of the seventh month of the biblical calendar, which in 1844 fell upon the twenty-second day of the tenth month, Habakkuk 2:20 was fulfilled, and the symbolical number “220” can be seen in the ‘chapter and verse’ which identifies a dispensational change in the work of Christ in the heavenly sanctuary. A prophetic characteristic of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is that they are those who follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth. To follow Christ means to follow Him in His Word.

A rana ta goma ga wata ta bakwai a kalandar Littafi Mai Tsarki, wadda a shekara ta 1844 ta zo a kan rana ta ashirin da biyu ga wata ta goma, an cika Habakkuk 2:20, kuma ana iya ganin lambar alama “220” a cikin ‘sura da aya’ da ke nuna sauyin zamani a cikin aikin Almasihu a cikin Wuri Mai Tsarki na sama.

In His Word, the number “220” symbolically represents the combination of divinity and humanity, and the very work Christ began on that date was the work of combining His divinity with humanity. In 1844 on the twenty-second day of the tenth month, or symbolically twenty-two times ten equaling “220” (22 X 10 = 220) or you might say, on the very date that equates symbolically to “220,” Habakkuk “2:20” was fulfilled as Christ moved from the holy place to the Most Holy Place to begin the investigative judgment.

Palmoni, the Wonderful Number stands within the ‘question and answer’ that is the central pillar of Adventism and most Adventists are fully unaware of that truth.

Palmoni, Mai Ƙidaya Mai Banmamaki, yana tsaye a cikin “tambaya da amsa” wadda ita ce ginshiƙi na tsakiya na Adventism, kuma mafi yawan Adventists ba su da cikakken sani game da wannan gaskiya.

> “The scripture which above all others had been both the foundation and central pillar of the Advent faith was the declaration, ‘Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.’ [Daniel 8:14.]” The Great Controversy, 409.

> “Nassin da, fiye da dukan sauran nassosi, ya kasance tushen ginin bangaskiyar Advent da kuma babban ginshiƙinta shi ne wannan furuci, ‘Har kwana dubu biyu da ɗari uku; sa’an nan kuma za a tsarkake Wuri Mai Tsarki.’ [Daniel 8:14.]” The Great Controversy, 409.

Daniel chapter eight verses thirteen and fourteen represent a question in verse thirteen that is followed by an answer in verse fourteen. The Hebrew word Palmoni is translated as “that certain saint” in verse thirteen, and that particular name of Christ means the Wonderful Numberer or the Numberer of Secrets.

Aya ta goma sha uku da ta goma sha huɗu na sura ta takwas ta littafin Daniyel suna wakiltar tambaya a aya ta goma sha uku wadda amsa ta biyo bayanta a aya ta goma sha huɗu. An fassara kalmar Ibrananci, Palmoni, da “wancan waliyyi na musamman” a aya ta goma sha uku, kuma wannan suna na musamman na Almasihu yana nufin Mai Ƙidaya Mai Ban Al’ajabi ko Mai Ƙidayar Asirai.

When Ellen White identifies that verse fourteen is the central pillar and foundation of Adventism, she places the divine emphasis upon the question and answer of these two verses which demands that Christ as the Wonderful Numberer must be the primary point of reference. Sister White repeatedly emphasized the importance of viewing Christ as the central truth of any passage, and in verses thirteen and fourteen there is a direct appearance of Christ—“that certain saint,”—who is Palmoni.

Sa’ad da Ellen White ta bayyana cewa aya ta goma sha huɗu ita ce ginshiƙi na tsakiya da tushe na Adventism, ta ɗora muhimmanci na allahntaka a kan tambaya da amsar waɗannan ayoyi biyu, abin da yake buƙatar cewa Almasihu, a matsayin Mai Ƙidaya Mai Banmamaki, dole ne ya kasance babban batu na nuni. ’Yar’uwa White ta nanata sau da yawa muhimmancin kallon Almasihu a matsayin gaskiya ta tsakiya a cikin kowane nassi, kuma a cikin ayoyi na goma sha uku da goma sha huɗu akwai bayyanar Almasihu kai tsaye—“wancan tsarkake”—wanda shi ne Palmoni.

When Adventism rejected the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six in 1863, they closed their eyes to Palmoni, for the prophetic structure of the question and answer is based upon the relationship of Moses’ “seven times” and Daniel’s “twenty-three hundred days.” Moses’ “seven times” or twenty-five hundred and twenty years and Daniel’s “twenty-three hundred evenings and mornings” or twenty-three hundred years prophetic relationship is established by time, which is represented by numbers, and the Wonderful Numberer is right in the center of the question and answer that are the central pillar of Adventism. Those who may have read the writings of Josephus might remember his logical arguments identifying two special things created by God. One was the Hebrew language and the other was measurable time, which in turns requires mathematics.

Verse thirteen asks “How long?” The verse does not ask “when,” it asks “how long?” If the question is about duration (how long?) or if the question is about a point in time (when?) is essential to correctly understand. The answer to the question in verse fourteen is either identifying a point in time, or a period of time and possibly both, but whatever the answer may be it must be set within the context of the question of verse thirteen. To rightly divide the word, or that is to say to rightly understand the answer of verse fourteen requires a correct understanding of the context of the question. Is it “when” or “then?”

Aya ta goma sha uku ta yi tambaya da cewa, “Har yaushe?” Ayar ba ta tambayi “yaushe” ba, ta tambayi “har yaushe?” Ko tambayar tana magana ne game da tsawon lokaci (har yaushe?) ko kuwa tana magana ne game da wani takamaiman lokaci (yaushe?) yana da matuƙar muhimmanci domin a fahimta daidai.

The drunkards of Ephraim vaguely teach that verse fourteen is identifying a point in time, which they identify as October 22, 1844, and when they do so they may very well refer to the passage we just cited from The Great Controversy, but God’s Word never changes and it never fails. The question of “how long” is identifying duration, not a point in time. October 22, 1844 began the period of the investigative judgment and the truths associated with that work represent the everlasting gospel and are much more important than simply the date it started.

Mashayan Efraimu cikin ruɗani suna koyar da cewa aya ta goma sha huɗu tana bayyana wani takamaiman lokaci, wanda suke danganta shi da Oktoba 22, 1844, kuma sa’ad da suke yin haka suna iya nufin nassin da muka yi ambato daga The Great Controversy, amma Kalmar Allah ba ta taɓa canzawa ba, kuma ba ta taɓa kasawa ba.

The Hebrew grammar is clear, and that identical meaning was translated into the King James Version. Not only is the grammar clearly placing the question in the context of duration, but the question “how long” is a symbol of biblical prophecy. It can be demonstrated upon several witnesses that the question “how long” as a symbol represents the history of 9/11 unto the Sunday law. We will first consider the symbol of “how long” before we return to Palmoni and Joel.

In Isaiah chapter six verse three the angels identify that the earth is full of God’s glory.

A cikin Ishaya sura ta shida aya ta uku, mala’iku suna bayyana cewa duniya cike take da ɗaukakar Allah.

> And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. Isaiah 6:3.

Sister White connects the descent of the angel of Revelation eighteen with the angels if verse three.

’Yar’uwa White ta danganta saukowar mala’ikan Ru’ya ta Yohanna sha takwas da mala’ikun ayar uku.

> “As they [the angels] see the future, when the whole earth shall be filled with His glory, the triumphant song of praise is echoed from one to another in melodious chant, ‘Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Hosts.’” Review and Herald, December 22, 1896.

Isaiah is at 9/11 and he asks “how long” he must present the message of 9/11 to a Laodicean people who do not wish to see or hear. He is told he must persevere until the cities are broken down, and the destruction of the cities, which begins at the Sunday law when national apostasy is followed by national ruin.

Ishaya yana a 9/11 kuma ya yi tambaya, “har yaushe” dole ne ya gabatar da saƙon 9/11 ga mutanen Laodikiya waɗanda ba sa son gani ko ji.

> Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, And the Lord have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land. But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof. Isaiah 6:11–13.

> Sai na ce, Ya Ubangiji, har yaushe? Sai ya amsa, Har birane su lalace ba mazauni, gidaje kuma babu mutum, ƙasar kuwa ta zama kufai sarai, Ubangiji kuma ya kai mutane can nesa, kuma a tsakiyar ƙasar a kasance da babban yashewa.

Ishaya 6:11–13.

At 9/11, when the earth was lightened with God’s glory Isaiah is anointed to present the latter rain message and he asks “how long” does he need to present the message of 9/11 to people whose hearts are fat? The answer is “until” the Sunday law, when there will be “a great forsaking in the midst of the land.” The “great forsaking” is accomplished by Laodicean Adventism who Isaiah in chapter twenty-two, represents as Shebna.

A 9/11, lokacin da aka haskaka duniya da ɗaukakar Allah, an shafe Ishaya domin ya gabatar da saƙon ruwan sama na ƙarshe, kuma ya yi tambaya, “har yaushe” ne ya kamata ya ci gaba da gabatar da saƙon 9/11 ga mutanen da zukatansu suka yi ƙiba?

> Behold, the Lord will carry thee away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover thee. He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a ball into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord’s house. And I will drive thee from thy station, and from thy state shall he pull thee down. Isaiah 22:17–19.

> Ga shi, Ubangiji zai kwashe ka da ƙaƙƙarfan bautar ƙaura, tabbas kuma zai lulluɓe ka.

Laodicean Adventism forsake the truth at the Sunday law and are there “overthrown” as represented in Daniel chapter eleven verse forty-one.

Adventisancin Laodikiya suna yashe gaskiya a lokacin dokar Lahadi, kuma a nan ne ake “kifarsu,” kamar yadda aka wakilta a cikin Daniyel sura ta goma sha ɗaya aya ta arba’in da ɗaya.

> He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon. Daniel 11:41.

When Isaiah asks “how long,” he is told to present the message to Adventism right up to the Sunday law when the “many” of Daniel eleven verse forty-one will be “overthrown,” when they forsake the Sabbath and God. They will then be spewed out of the mouth of the Lord as represented in the book of Revelation, where all the books of the Bible meet and end, and where Isaiah twenty-two Shebna being “violently” tossed “like a ball into a large country” as they are “removed” “far away.”

In that time period the remnant, represented as a “tenth” (which is a tithe) “return”; who in the passage are compared to trees which have “substance” that remains when the leaves are cast off. “Leaves” represent profession in prophetic symbolism. When Adventism comes to the Sunday law and accepts the first day of the week in place of God’s Sabbath, they will cast off their leaves of “profession” and no longer claim to uphold God’s seventh-day Sabbath.

> “The cursing of the fig tree was an acted parable. That barren tree, flaunting its pretentious foliage in the very face of Christ, was a symbol of the Jewish nation. The Saviour desired to make plain to His disciples the cause and the certainty of Israel’s doom. For this purpose He invested the tree with moral qualities, and made it the expositor of divine truth. The Jews stood forth distinct from all other nations, professing allegiance to God. They had been specially favored by Him, and they laid claim to righteousness above every other people. But they were corrupted by the love of the world and the greed of gain. They boasted of their knowledge, but they were ignorant of the requirements of God, and were full of hypocrisy. Like the barren tree, they spread their pretentious branches aloft, luxuriant in appearance, and beautiful to the eye, but they yielded “nothing but leaves.” The Jewish religion, with its magnificent temple, its sacred altars, its mitered priests and impressive ceremonies, was indeed fair in outward appearance, but humility, love, and benevolence were lacking.

> “All the trees in the fig orchard were destitute of fruit; but the leafless trees raised no expectation, and caused no disappointment. By these trees the Gentiles were represented. They were as destitute as were the Jews of godliness; but they had not professed to serve God. They made no boastful pretensions to goodness. They were blind to the works and ways of God. With them the time of figs was not yet. They were still waiting for a day which would bring them light and hope. The Jews, who had received greater blessings from God, were held accountable for their abuse of these gifts. The privileges of which they boasted only increased their guilt.” The Desire of Ages. 582, 583.

At the Sunday law Laodicean Adventism’s profession of being God’s covenant people is gone as they accept the mark of the covenant of death and reject the seal of the covenant of life. They then cast off their leaves of profession and what is brought to view is a remnant represented by Isaiah, who at 9/11 “returned” to the old paths, were then humbled into the dust when they (Isaiah) realized his corrupted experience, and was thereafter purified with a coal from off the altar. Sister White informs us the coal from the altar represents purification, but purification is simply what is accomplished by the coal touching Isaiah’s lips.

A dokar Lahadi ikirarin Adventism na Laodicea na cewa su mutanen alkawarin Allah ne ya gushe, sa’ad da suka karɓi alamar alkawarin mutuwa kuma suka ƙi hatimin alkawarin rai.

> “The live coal is symbolical of purification. If it touches the lips, no impure word will fall from them. The live coal also symbolizes the potency of the efforts of the servants of the Lord.” Review and Herald, October 16, 1888.

> “Gawayin wuta mai rai alama ce ta tsarkakewa. Idan ya taɓa leɓɓa, babu wata magana marar tsarki da za ta fito daga gare su. Gawayin wuta mai rai kuma alama ce ta ƙarfin tasirin ƙoƙarin bayin Ubangiji.” Review and Herald, Oktoba 16, 1888.

The “coal” from the altar that are cast to earth in the last days are the coals cast to earth when the seventh and final seal is opened in the first five verses of Revelation chapter eight. Isaiah, and therefore the one hundred and forty-four thousand are purified by the coal touching their lips, but the “coal” is a message. It touches their lips when they take the book out of the angel’s hand and eat.

> Ka tsarkake su ta wurin gaskiyarka: maganarka ita ce gaskiya. Yohanna 17:17.

Those who “return” and become the remnant (residue) are represented as being the oak and teal trees, and just as Christ had “invested the tree with moral qualities, and made it the expositor of divine truth” Isaiah’s trees have the “moral quality” within them as represented by the “substance.” The substance remains with the trees, even when those who were only leaves of profession are cast off. The “holy seed” is the “substance” and Christ is the “holy seed” of prophecy. Those trees who are represented as the remnant and by Isaiah himself in chapter six represents men and therefore humanity and the holy seed represent divinity. Thus, Isaiah six identifies the purification of Adventism from 9/11 unto the Sunday law, and the details which Isaiah contributes to that prophetic history are all represented by his question of “how long”. For Isaiah the answer to “how long” was from 9/11 unto the Sunday law.

## How Long? 1840–1844

Har Yaushe? 1840–1844

August 11, 1840 typified 9/11 and with the prophetic history of August 11, 1840 unto October 22, 1844 the battle of Mount Carmel between Elijah and Jezebel’s prophets took place. Ultimately the prophets of Baal were demonstrated to be false prophets and executed by Elijah, but at the very outset of the confrontation Elijah asked the question, “how long” halt you between two opinions.

11 ga Agusta, 1840 ya kasance alamar 9/11, kuma tare da tarihin annabci daga 11 ga Agusta, 1840 zuwa 22 ga Oktoba, 1844, yaƙin Dutsen Karmel tsakanin Iliya da annabawan Jezebel ya faru.

> And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. Then said Elijah unto the people, I, even I only, remain a prophet of the Lord; but Baal’s prophets are four hundred and fifty men. 1 Kings 18:21, 22.

> Sai Iliya ya zo wurin dukan mutane, ya ce, Har yaushe za ku yi ta karkacewa tsakanin ra’ayoyi biyu? In Ubangiji ne Allah, ku bi shi; amma in Ba’al ne, to, ku bi shi. Mutanen kuwa ba su amsa masa ko da kalma ɗaya ba.

Elijah is at August 11, 1840; asking that generation whether the Millerite message is true or is it false? It is another message to Laodicea, as was Isaiah six.

Iliya yana a ranar 11 ga Agusta, 1840; yana tambayar wannan tsara ko saƙon Milleriya gaskiya ne ko kuwa ƙarya ne? Wani saƙo ne kuma ga Laodikiya, kamar yadda Ishaya shida ya kasance.

> “Thousands were led to embrace the truth preached by William Miller, and servants of God were raised up in the spirit and power of Elijah to proclaim the message. Like John, the forerunner of Jesus, those who preached this solemn message felt compelled to lay the ax at the root of the tree, and call upon men to bring forth fruits meet for repentance. Their testimony was calculated to arouse and powerfully affect the churches and manifest their real character. And as the solemn warning to flee from the wrath to come was sounded, many who were united with the churches received the healing message; they saw their backslidings, and with bitter tears of repentance and deep agony of soul, humbled themselves before God. And as the Spirit of God rested upon them, they helped to sound the cry, ‘Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the hour of His judgment is come.’” Early Writings, 233.

In the testing history of 1840 to 1844 the Protestants who rejected the message of Elijah became the daughters of Rome and surrendered the mantle of Protestantism unto Millerite Adventism. With Isaiah and Elijah, we have two witnesses which testify to the fact that the question “how long” is a symbol of the history that begins at 9/11 and ends at the Sunday law. In the Millerite history August 11, 1840 aligns with 9/11, and October 22, 1844 aligns with the Sunday law. When fire came down out of heaven and consumed Elijah’s offering the twelve stones were all illuminated with the offering, thus marking the one hundred and forty-four thousand as an ensign represented as illuminated stones. The false prophets were then slain by Elijah just as the United States, the false prophet is slain as the sixth kingdom at the Sunday law.

Isaiah six is emphasizing a testing, purging and purification process among God’s people from 9/11 unto the Sunday law. Elijah is addressing the Laodicean attitude of God’s people, but also providing evidence between a true and false prophet and in turn a true or false message. Thus, beginning from August 11, 1840 and ending on October 22, 1844 a prophetic test was brought upon the Protestants of the period of Sardis, and just as the fire at Mount Carmel produced a division into two classes, two classes were manifested in 1844. One class in the testing process was the soon-to-be “former” covenant people, and the other class was Millerite Adventism that God would enter into covenant with on October 22, 1844. The period of testing and division is the story of the vineyard as Millerite Adventism was shown to be the true prophet at the same point that Sardian Protestantism began to fulfill its role as apostate Protestantism. Just as the prophets of Baal were exposed as false, so to was the former covenant people exposed and then identified by the Millerites as a daughter of Rome. The story of Mount Carmel and also the fulfillment of that history in the time of the Millerites provides a second witness to Isaiah six’s that the question, “how long” is a symbol of the period of time from 9/11 unto the Sunday law.

> “No sooner is the prayer of Elijah ended than flames of fire, like brilliant flashes of lightning, descend from heaven upon the upreared altar, consuming the sacrifice, licking up the water in the trench, and consuming even the stones of the altar. The brilliancy of the blaze illumines the mountain and dazzles the eyes of the multitude. In the valleys below, where many are watching in anxious suspense the movements of those above, the descent of fire is clearly seen, and all are amazed at the sight. It resembles the pillar of fire which at the Red Sea separated the children of Israel from the Egyptian host.

> “The people on the mount prostrate themselves in awe before the unseen God. They dare not continue to look upon the Heaven-sent fire. They fear that they themselves will be consumed; and, convicted of their duty to acknowledge the God of Elijah as the God of their fathers, to whom they owe allegiance, they cry out together as with one voice, ‘The Lord, He is the God; the Lord, He is the God.’ With startling distinctness the cry resounds over the mountain and echoes in the plain below. At last Israel is aroused, undeceived, penitent. At last the people see how greatly they have dishonored God. The character of Baal worship, in contrast with the reasonable service required by the true God, stands fully revealed. The people recognize God’s justice and mercy in withholding the dew and the rain until they have been brought to confess His name. They are ready now to admit that the God of Elijah is above every idol.” Prophets and Kings, 153.

## How Long? Moses

Har Yaushe? Musa Israel was now in a great strait. All hope of peace and safety had vanished from before them. Hemmed in by rocky hills and inaccessible heights, by the broad sea in front, and by the armies of Egypt pursuing them in the rear, they had no possibility of escape. Yet Moses calmly assured the people, “The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.” But the hearts of the people failed them, and they could not understand his words. Fear and distrust of God made them cry out in bitter despair. They saw in the Egyptian host the sure harbinger of their destruction, and reproached Moses with having led them into a fatal trap. But the Hebrew leader had no thought of yielding to fear. He knew there was no earthly means of deliverance, but his eye was fixed on the cloudy pillar, the visible token of the Divine Presence. Yet while his outward bearing was calm and self-controlled, his soul was in agony. In this extremity he “cried unto the Lord”; and from the pillar of cloud came the answer: “Wherefore criest thou unto Me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward.” Exodus 14:10-15. Is not this a lesson for us?—God brought the Israelites into difficulties to manifest His power in their deliverance, and to make their unbelief and murmuring before Him a humiliation to themselves. In this way He would strengthen their faith and increase their trust in Him. He could have saved them by any other means, but He chose this method in order to test their faith and strengthen their confidence in Himself. We can never afford to give way to distrust and despondency. God may not at once reveal the purpose of His dealings with us; but should we therefore cast away our confidence? “I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth His face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for Him.” Isaiah 8:17. Amid all our heartaches and discouragements, let us trust in Him whose love is infinite and whose power is almighty. “The Lord is good unto them that wait for Him, to the soul that seeketh Him.” Lamentations 3:25. His ear is not closed to our cry. “Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 37:5. YI September 1, 1903, par. 1

The first time the symbolic question, “how long” is raised in the prophetic Word is in the eighth plague upon the Egyptians in the time of Moses. The eighth plague is “locusts” (a symbol of Islam) that are brought by an “east wind” (a symbol of Islam).

Else, if thou refuse to let my people go, behold, tomorrow will I bring the locusts into thy coast: And they shall cover the face of the earth, that one cannot be able to see the earth: and they shall eat the residue of that which is escaped, which remaineth unto you from the hail, and shall eat every tree which groweth for you out of the field: And they shall fill thy houses, and the houses of all thy servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians; which neither thy fathers, nor thy fathers’ fathers have seen, since the day that they were upon the earth unto this day. And he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.

And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such. For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

Now therefore forgive, I pray thee, my sin only this once, and intreat the Lord your God, that he may take away from me this death only. And he went out from Pharaoh, and intreated the Lord. And the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt. Exodus 10:3–19.

First “the Lord God of the Hebrews” asks, How long wilt thou refuse to humble thyself before me?” and then Pharaoh’s servants thereafter asked Pharaoh again, “How long shall this man be a snare unto us?” The question is asked during the eighth plague, which aligns with 9/11 for several reasons. The tenth plague is the slaying of the first born, which aligns with the cross and is followed by the disappointment by the Red Sea, which inspiration aligns with the disappointment of the disciples at the cross, which aligns with the great disappointment of the Millerites in 1844. Those three witnesses all align with the Sunday law. The tenth plague is the Sunday law and two plagues earlier the eighth plague brought the “locusts” upon an “east wind.” The “locusts” filled the entire earth, just as Islam is shaking the entire world today as it has spread its darkness through forced immigration. The “desert locust’s” Latin name is “locusta migratoria,” representing the spread of Islam through immigration that is typified in the natural world as migration.

The ninth plague was a darkness that could be felt.

Annoba ta tara duhu ne mai kauri da za a iya ji.

> And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings. Exodus 10:21–23.

> Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Musa, “Miƙa hannunka zuwa sama, domin duhu ya mamaye ƙasar Masar, har ma duhun da za a iya ji.” Sai Musa ya miƙa hannunsa zuwa sama; sai wani duhu mai kauri ya rufe dukan ƙasar Masar har kwana uku.

In the symbolism of “how long” represented by Mount Carmel and Elijah there is a distinction manifested when the fire comes down out of heaven. Elijah’s God did what Baal cannot do. In Millerite history the distinction was made between fallen Sardian Protestantism and Millerite Adventism. With Moses the distinction was darkness or light. There was light in the Hebrew homes. Isaiah further informs us that those who have no light in Moses line, who are also those destroyed by Elijah, and those who lose the mantle of Protestantism in the Millerite time period are a “people” who “hear” “indeed, but understand not; and see” “indeed, but perceive not.” Then a pronouncement is made of these people which states, “Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.”

The last three of Egypt’s ten plagues provide a witness of the three steps from 9/11 unto the Sunday law. On August 11, 1840 the first angel’s message was empowered, and on April 19, 1844 the second angel arrived and was empowered at the Exeter Camp Meeting August 12–17, and the third angel arrived on October 22, 1844. The third angel aligns with the Sunday law, and therefore identifies a three-step process for you cannot have a third, without a first and a second.

Annoba uku na ƙarshe cikin annobai goma na Masar suna ba da shaida game da matakai uku daga 9/11 zuwa dokar Lahadi.

> “The first and second messages were given in 1843 and 1844, and we are now under the proclamation of the third; but all three of the messages are still to be proclaimed. It is just as essential now as ever before that they shall be repeated to those who are seeking for the truth. By pen and voice we are to sound the proclamation, showing their order, and the application of the prophecies that bring us to the third angel’s message. There cannot be a third without the first and second. These messages we are to give to the world in publications, in discourses, showing in the line of prophetic history the things that have been and the things that will be.” Selected Messages, book 2, 104, 105.

The tenth plague of Egypt has been aligned by inspiration with the cross and the following disappointment associated with it. The tenth plague is therefore the third message, which of prophetic necessity must be preceded by a first and second message. At 9/11 the Lord asked Pharaoh, “how long” and immediately thereafter Pharaoh’s servants also asked, “how long.” After Moses delivered God’s question of “how long” to Pharaoh, and just before the servants repeat the question of Moses to Pharaoh, Moses marks a turning point as, “he turned himself, and went out from Pharaoh.” Exodus 10:6.

Annoba ta goma ta Masar an daidaita ta wurin wahayi da gicciye da kuma baƙin cikin da ya biyo bayansa wanda ke da alaƙa da shi. Saboda haka annoba ta goma ita ce saƙo na uku, wanda bisa ga larurar annabci dole ne saƙo na farko da na biyu su riga shi. A 9/11 Ubangiji ya tambayi Fir’auna, “har yaushe,” kuma nan da nan bayin Fir’auna su ma suka tambaya, “har yaushe.” Bayan Musa ya isar wa Fir’auna tambayar Allah ta “har yaushe,” kuma daidai kafin bayin su maimaita tambayar Musa ga Fir’auna, Musa ya nuna wani mahimmin juyin hali da cewa, “ya juya, ya fita daga gaban Fir’auna.” Fitowa 10:6.

9/11 was a prophetic turning point, that was typified when Moses delivered the plague of locusts that came on the east wind.

9/11 wata mahangar annabci ce ta juyi, wadda aka yi mata kwatanci lokacin da Musa ya kawo annobar fara da ta zo ta wurin iskar gabas.

> “There are periods which are turning points in the history of nations and of the church. In the providence of God, when these different crises arrive, the light for that time is given.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.

> “Akwai lokuta waɗanda su ne mahimman juya-hali a tarihin al’ummai da na ikkilisiya. Cikin tanadin Allah, sa’ad da waɗannan rikice-rikice dabam-dabam suka zo, ana ba da hasken da ya dace da wannan lokaci.” Bible Echo, August 26, 1895.

The next plague produced darkness or light depending on which class you were in. 9/11 was a “turning point in the history of nations and of the church.” At that point God’s people were called to return and walk in the old paths, but they refused to walk therein and hearkened not to the sound of the trumpet. A separation between darkness and light was accomplished after Elijah, and Moses asked, “how long?” She further states in the passage:

Annoba ta gaba ta haifar da duhu ko haske gwargwadon irin ajin da kake cikinsa. 9/11 ya kasance “maɓallin juyawa a cikin tarihin al’ummai da na ikkilisiya.” A wannan lokaci an kira mutanen Allah su komo su yi tafiya a cikin tsofaffin hanyoyi, amma suka ƙi yin tafiya a cikinsu, ba su kuma saurari ƙarar ƙaho ba.

At the opening of this meeting, Brethren Charles Fitch and Apollos Hale, of Haverhill, presented the pictorial prophecies of Daniel and John, which they had painted on cloth, with the prophetic numbers, showing their fulfillment. Brother Fitch in explaining from his chart before the Conference, said, while examining these prophecies, he had thought if he could get out something of the kind as here presented it would simplify the subject and make it easier for him to present to an audience. Here was more light in our pathway. These brethren had been doing what the Lord had shown Habakkuk in his vision 2,468 years before, saying, ‘Write the vision and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time.’ Habakkuk 2:2.

> “After some discussion on the subject, it was voted unanimously to have three hundred similar to this one lithographed, which was soon accomplished. They were called ‘the ‘43 charts.’ This was a very important Conference.” The Autobiography of Joseph Bates, 263.

> “I have seen that the 1843 chart was directed by the hand of the Lord, and that it should not be altered; that the figures were as He wanted them; that His hand was over and hid a mistake in some of the figures, so that none could see it, until His hand was removed.” Early Writings, 74.

> “It was the united testimony of Second Advent lecturers and papers, when standing on ‘the original faith,’ that the publication of the chart was a fulfillment of Habakkuk 2:2, 3. If the chart was a subject of prophecy (and those who deny it leave the original faith), then it follows that BC 457 was the year from which to date the 2300 days. It was necessary that 1843 should be the first published time in order that ‘the vision’ should ‘tarry,’ or that there should be a tarrying time, in which the virgin band was to slumber and sleep on the great subject of time, just before they were to be aroused by the Midnight Cry.” Second Advent Review and Sabbath Herald, Volume I, Number 2, James White.
