The key to rightly dividing verses ten through sixteen of Daniel eleven is found in the basic prophetic applications that were employed over thirty years ago, in 1996, when The Time of the End magazine was published. Thirty years later, the Lord has revealed that another prophetic message is to be formalized as was the Millerite message formalized in 1831. In the omega history of these thirty years the message to be formalized is represented as a correction of a previous message of Islam, as represented by Josiah Litch and also a corrected message of the closed door, as represented by Samuel Snow, which is the symbol of the parable of the ten virgins. A message of Islam, accompanied with a warning of the progressive closing doors of probation as Christ finishes His work of judgment will be proclaimed. The message is twofold, possessing and internal and external line, which in turn represent the first two steps of the three-step testing process that always occurs when a prophecy is unsealed, as was the revelation of Jesus Christ on December 31, 2023.

Urufunguzo rwo kugabanya neza imirongo ya cumi kugeza kuri cumi n’itandatu yo muri Daniyeli cumi n’umwe ruboneka mu mikoreshereze y’ibanze y’ubuhanuzi yakoreshejwe hashize imyaka irenga mirongo itatu, mu 1996, igihe ikinyamakuru *The Time of the End* cyatangazwaga.

The Time of the End magazine contains the basic overview of the future for America as represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven which were unsealed at the time of the end in 1989. The magazine has been in the public record for thirty years and no one saw that a main theme of the magazine was the religious struggle between communism and the churches under the influence of Catholicism, especially in the Ukraine. That religious battle from the period of 1989, explains the context of the religious demise of Putin as represented by Ptolemy and Uzziah in the rebellion they both manifested at the temple in Jerusalem. The temple in Jerusalem was Uzziah’s temple, not Ptolemy’s temple. Both Putin and Zelenskyy desecrate the same temple in two different ways; one as an Egyptian and one as a Jew.

Ikinyamakuru *The Time of the End* gikubiyemo incamake y’ibanze y’ahazaza ha Amerika nk’uko hagaragazwa mu mirongo itandatu ya nyuma ya Daniyeli igice cya cumi na kimwe, iyahishuwe mu gihe cy’imperuka mu mwaka wa 1989. Icyo kinyamakuru kimaze imyaka mirongo itatu kiri mu nyandiko rusange, nyamara nta wigeze abona ko imwe mu nsanganyamatsiko zacyo nyamukuru yari urugamba rw’idini hagati ya gikomunisimu n’amatorero ari munsi y’ingaruka za Gatolika, by’umwihariko muri Ukraine. Urwo rugamba rw’idini rwo mu gihe cya 1989 rusobanura imiterere y’isenyuka ry’idini rya Putin, nk’uko rigereranywa na Putolemi na Uziya mu bugome bwo kwigomeka bombi bagaragaje mu rusengero rw’i Yerusalemu. Urusengero rw’i Yerusalemu rwari urwa Uziya, si urwa Putolemi. Putin na Zelenskyy bombi bahumanya urwo rusengero rumwe mu buryo bubiri butandukanye: umwe nk’Umunyegiputa, undi nk’Umuyahudi.

The church that was struggling against the king of the south in 1989 was the Catholic church. And why not? Atheism of France delivered the deadly wound to the king of the north in 1798, so why wouldn’t the papacy retaliate against atheism’s long-drawn-out persecution of the Catholic church, especially in the Ukraine? More significant is that this clear testimony about the Ukraine came from a publication in 1996, that was citing the secular historians about the history of 1989. Now that the Lord is unsealing the hidden history of verse forty, He has pointed to the struggle between two orthodox churches to provide the prophetic and historical context of the battle of Raphia and its aftermath, and He had already included the necessary insights in The Time of the End magazine that was published thirty years ago.

Itorero ryarwanaga n’umwami w’epfo mu mwaka wa 1989 ryari Itorero Gatolika. Kandi se kuki bitaba bityo? Ubutemera Imana bw’u Bufaransa ni bwo bwakomerekeje urupfu umwami w’amajyaruguru mu 1798; none se ni iki cyabuza ubupapa kwihorera ku gutotezwa kw’igihe kirekire ubutemera Imana bwakoreye Itorero Gatolika, by’umwihariko muri Ukraine? Ikirushaho kugira uburemere ni uko ubu buhamya busobanutse bwerekeye Ukraine bwavuye mu gitabo cyasohowe mu 1996, cyari gisubiramo ibyo abahanga mu mateka b’isi bavuga ku mateka yo mu 1989. Ubu, ubwo Uwiteka ari gukuraho ikimenyetso ku mateka yahishwe yo mu murongo wa mirongo ine, yerekanye urugamba hagati y’amatorero abiri ya orotodogisi kugira ngo atange urwego rw’ubuhanuzi n’urw’amateka rw’intambara ya Raphia n’ingaruka zayo, kandi yari yarashyizemo ubumenyi bukenewe mu kinyamakuru The Time of the End cyasohowe hashize imyaka mirongo itatu.

The demise of Napoleon aligns with the progressive demise of Lenin, Stalin and the system of the Soviet Union. When the prophetic southern kingdom moved its capital to Russia there were two major revolutions in 1917. The first is what is called the Russian revolution when the Czar was overthrown, and then in the same year the Bolshevik Revolution followed, which led to the civil war of 1917 unto 1922. In 1922 the Soviet Union was formed.

Iherezo rya Napoléon rihura n’iherezo rigenda ryegereza rya Lenin, Stalin n’imitegekere y’Ubumwe bw’Abasoviyeti. Igihe ubwami bw’amajyepfo bwo mu buhanuzi bwimuriraga umurwa mukuru wabwo mu Burusiya habaye impinduramatwara ebyiri zikomeye mu 1917. Iya mbere ni iyo yitwa Impinduramatwara y’Uburusiya, igihe Tsar yahirikwaga, hanyuma muri uwo mwaka nyine hakurikiraho Impinduramatwara y’Ababolsheviki, ari yo yatumye habaho intambara y’abaturage yatangiye mu 1917 ikageza mu 1922. Mu 1922 ni bwo Ubumwe bw’Abasoviyeti bwashinzwe.

The beginning of Russia as the spiritual king of the south represented a two-step revolution that led to civil war, then the formation of a confederacy of countries. The collapse of the Soviet Union was also two steps, beginning with the tearing down of the Berlin wall on November 9, 1989, which then led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 31, 1991. As the last ruler of Russia, the king of the south, Vladimir Putin was typified by the first Russian ruler—Vladimir Lenin.

Itangiriro ry’u Burusiya nk’umwami wo mu mwuka w’ikusi ry’amajyepfo ryagereranyaga impinduramatwara y’intambwe ebyiri yagejeje ku ntambara y’abaturage, hanyuma ikurikirwa no gushingwa kw’ihuriro ry’ibihugu. Isenyuka ry’Ubumwe bw’Abasoviyeti na ryo ryabaye mu ntambwe ebyiri, ritangirana no gusenya urukuta rwa Berlin ku wa 9 Ugushyingo 1989, maze rikaza kugeza ku isenyuka ry’Ubumwe bw’Abasoviyeti ku wa 31 Ukuboza 1991. Nk’umutegetsi wa nyuma w’u Burusiya, umwami wo mu majyepfo, Vladimir Putin, yagereranyijwe n’umutegetsi wa mbere w’u Burusiya—Vladimir Lenin.

Vladimir means “a great leader” and Putin means “the path.” Lenin means “a great river,” but Vladimir Lenin chose the name of Lenin to hide his real name, which was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov. Ilyich means “son of Elijah,” and Ulyanov means “youthful son of Elijah.”

Vladimir bisobanura “umuyobozi ukomeye” kandi Putin bisobanura “inzira.” Lenin bisobanura “uruzi runini,” ariko Vladimir Lenin yihitiyemo izina rya Lenin kugira ngo ahishe izina rye nyakuri, ari ryo Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov. Ilyich bisobanura “umwana wa Eliya,” kandi Ulyanov bisobanura “umwana ukiri muto wa Eliya.”

The great Russian leader on the path, in the history represented by the battle of Raphia in 217 BC, was typified by the first leader of Russia, who as Vladimir Lenin was the great leader of the mighty river, but who hid his name. A name is a symbol of character, and for Vladimir to hide his two names represents a character that chose a great river of political thought, over a character represented by Elijah, which means “God is Jehovah.” The root of atheism is the denial of God, and atheism is a prime characteristic of the king of the south. The second and third given name of Lenin emphasize Elijah and his son, and the end of Russia as the king of the south is represented by Ptolemy IV, who was victorious at the battle of Raphia, but when Antiochus returned in 200 BC at the battle of Panium Ptolemy’s five-year-old son was then ruling. Lenin’s two original names identify Elijah and his son, and align with Ptolemy and his son. Elijah and the message to his children occurs in the latter days, just before “the great and dreadful day of the Lord;” which is where the battles of Raphia and Panium are also located.

Umuyobozi mukuru w’Uburusiya uri muri uwo murongo, mu mateka ashyirwa mu ishusho n’intambara ya Raphia yo mu mwaka wa 217 Mbere ya Kristo, yagereranyijwe n’umuyobozi wa mbere w’Uburusiya, ari we Vladimir Lenin, wari umuyobozi ukomeye w’uruzi rukomeye, ariko wahishe izina rye. Izina ni ikimenyetso cy’imico, kandi kuba Vladimir yarahishe amazina ye yombi bishushanya imico yahisemo uruzi rukomeye rw’imitekerereze ya politiki aho guhitamo imico igereranywa na Eliya, bisobanura ngo “Imana ni Yehova.” Umuzi w’ubuhakanyi ni uguhakana Imana, kandi ubuhakanyi ni ikiranga cy’ibanze cy’umwami wo mu majyepfo. Izina rya kabiri n’irya gatatu Lenin yahawe bishimangira Eliya n’umwana we, kandi iherezo ry’Uburusiya nk’umwami wo mu majyepfo rigereranywa na Ptolemy IV, watsinze mu ntambara ya Raphia, ariko igihe Antiochus yagarukaga mu mwaka wa 200 Mbere ya Kristo mu ntambara ya Panium, icyo gihe umwana wa Ptolemy w’imyaka itanu ni we wari ku ngoma. Amazina abiri ya mbere ya Lenin agaragaza Eliya n’umwana we, kandi ahura na Ptolemy n’umwana we. Eliya n’ubutumwa bwe ku bana be biboneka mu minsi y’imperuka, mbere gato y’“umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka;” ari na ho intambara za Raphia na Panium ziherereye.

> Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:5, 6.

> Dore, nzaboherereza Eliya umuhanuzi mbere y’uko umunsi ukomeye kandi uteye ubwoba w’Uwiteka uza; kandi azagarura imitima y’ababyeyi ku bana babo, n’imitima y’abana ku babyeyi babo, kugira ngo ntazaza ngo nkubite isi umuvumo. Malaki 4:5, 6.

The testimony of Uzziah and Ptolemy align in verse eleven of Daniel eleven, and Uzziah lived for eleven years after his rebellion and leprosy; whereas, Ptolemy ruled for a total of seventeen years, which is the same number of years between the battles of verse eleven and verse fifteen. The 250-year prophecy that began in 457 BC, ended in 207 BC in the middle of those two battles; ten years after Raphia and seven before Panium. Ptolemy IV’s reign began in 221 BC, and he died in 204 BC, so the seventeen years of Ptolemy are not the same line as the seventeen years from Raphia to Panium. Nor are they the same seventeen years that are represented by the conclusion of the 250-year prophecy beginning with Nero in 64 and ending in 313. From 313 to the first Sunday law in 321 is eight years, and nine years later in 330 Constantine divided the kingdom into east and west.

Ubuhamya bwa Uziya na Ptolemy buhurirana mu murongo wa cumi n’umwe wa Daniyeli icumi n’umwe, kandi Uziya yabayeho imyaka cumi n’umwe nyuma y’ubwigomeke bwe n’ibibembe bye; naho Ptolemy we yategetse imyaka cumi n’irindwi yose hamwe, ari na yo mubare w’imyaka iri hagati y’intambara zo mu murongo wa cumi n’umwe n’uwa cumi n’itanu. Ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka 250 bwatangiye mu 457 mbere ya Kristo, bwarangiye mu 207 mbere ya Kristo hagati y’izo ntambara zombi; imyaka icumi nyuma ya Raphia n’irindwi mbere ya Panium. Ingoma ya Ptolemy IV yatangiye mu 221 mbere ya Kristo, kandi yapfuye mu 204 mbere ya Kristo, bityo rero imyaka cumi n’irindwi ya Ptolemy si wo murongo umwe n’imyaka cumi n’irindwi iva kuri Raphia ikagera kuri Panium. Kandi si na yo myaka cumi n’irindwi imwe ihagarariwe n’isozwa ry’ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka 250 butangirana na Nero mu 64 bukarangira mu 313. Kuva mu 313 kugera ku itegeko rya mbere ry’icyumweru mu 321 ni imyaka umunani, kandi nyuma y’imyaka icyenda, mu 330, Constantine yagabanyije ubwami mu burasirazuba no mu burengerazuba.

In the very near future Putin and Russia will defeat Ukraine and the footsteps of Ptolemy and Uzziah will begin to repeat in the history represented by verse twelve. The two biblical witnesses place the final crisis for Putin in a church and state crisis. Their rebellion was manifested at the temple in Jerusalem, thus identifying Uzziah’s temple and religion as the point of prophetic reference.

Mu gihe cya vuba cyane, Putin n’u Burusiya bazatsinda Ukraine, kandi intambwe za Ptolemy na Uziya zizatangira kongera kwigaragaza mu mateka ahagarariwe n’umurongo wa cumi na kabiri. Abahamya babiri bo muri Bibiliya bashyira iherezo ry’ikibazo cya nyuma cya Putin mu kibazo cy’itorero n’ubutegetsi. Ubugome bwabo bwagaragariye mu rusengero rw’i Yerusalemu, bityo bikerekana urusengero n’idini bya Uziya nk’ahantu h’ingenzi h’icyerekezo cy’ubuhanuzi.

Zelenskyy, which means “green,” is the puppet of the globalist bureaucrats of the European Union and the United Nations, whose globalist agenda is aptly represented by the green political movement that worships mother earth. It is fitting that Zelenskyy was an actor, for he is clearly a proxy of other powers, and his name meaning “green” identifies the political philosophy that guides his movements on the chess board of human history. Checkmate is right around the corner for Zelenskyy.

Zelenskyy, risobanura ngo “icyatsi,” ni igikinisho cy’abanyabiro by’abaglobariste b’Umuryango w’Ubumwe bw’u Burayi n’Umuryango w’Abibumbye, bafite gahunda y’ubuglobariste ihagarariwe neza n’umutwe wa politiki w’icyatsi usenga nyina w’isi. Birakwiriye ko Zelenskyy yari umukinnyi w’ikinamico, kuko bigaragara neza ko ari intumwa ikorera izindi mbaraga, kandi icyo izina rye risobanura, ari cyo “icyatsi,” kigaragaza filozofiya ya politiki iyobora ingendo ze ku kibaho cy’umukino w’amahina cy’amateka y’ikiremwamuntu. Kunesha burundu Zelenskyy biri hafi cyane.

In this final history the rebellion of Uzziah and Ptolemy will once again be acted out, but Ptolemy (Putin) died four years before the battle of Panium, and the last ruler of the king of the south is represented by a five-year-old child who is being handled by a series of corrupt and incompetent regents.

Muri aya mateka ya nyuma, ubugome bwa Uziya na Potolemi buzongera gukinwa, ariko Potolemi (Putin) yapfuye imyaka ine mbere y’urugamba rwa Panium, kandi umutware wa nyuma w’umwami w’ikusi ahagarariwe n’umwana w’imyaka itanu uri gutegekwa n’uruhererekane rw’abarezi b’abanyabwenge b’abanyarugomo kandi badafite ubushobozi.

Ptolemy V was only about 5–6 years old when he ascended the throne in 204 BC (after his father’s mysterious death), and the Ptolemaic kingdom was paralyzed by a series of incompetent or corrupt regencies during his reign. The initial regency was from 204–202 BC, after Ptolemy IV’s death was concealed and his mother Arsinoe III murdered. The court favorites Sosibius, a longtime minister under Ptolemy IV, and Agathocles the brother of Ptolemy IV’s mistress Agathoclea, declared themselves regents. They forged or presented a will making them guardians, placed the young king under the care of Agathoclea and her family, and purged potential rivals. Sosibius handled much of the early administration.

Ptolemy V yari afite imyaka nka 5–6 gusa igihe yimikwaga ku ntebe y’ubwami mu mwaka wa 204 mbere ya Kristo (nyuma y’urupfu rw’amayobera rwa se), kandi ubwami bw’Abaptoleme bwahungabanyijwe bikomeye n’uruhererekane rw’ubutegetsi bw’abasigasi bwari butagira ubushobozi cyangwa bwarimo ruswa mu gihe cy’ingoma ye. Ubusigasi bwa mbere bwabaye kuva mu mwaka wa 204–202 mbere ya Kristo, nyuma y’aho urupfu rwa Ptolemy IV ruhishiriwe kandi nyina Arsinoe III akicwa. Abari ibikomerezwa by’ibwami, Sosibius, wari umaze igihe kirekire ari minisitiri ku ngoma ya Ptolemy IV, na Agathocles, murumuna wa Agathoclea, inshoreke ya Ptolemy IV, biyemeje ko ari bo basigasi. Bahimbye cyangwa berekana inyandiko y’irage ibagira abarinzi, bashyira uwo mwami ukiri muto mu maboko ya Agathoclea n’umuryango we, kandi bakuraho abashoboraga kuzaba abo bahanganye. Sosibius ni we wayoboraga igice kinini cy’imirimo y’ubutegetsi mu ntangiriro.

A shift occurred around 202 BC, when Agathocles became the dominant regent, but was widely hated for debauchery and mismanagement. A popular uprising in Alexandria led to his brutal lynching by a mob, with the boy-king nominally approving. Subsequent regents were Tlepolemus the governor of Pelusium, and then Aristomenes. By the time of the battle of Panium in 200 BC, the kingdom was under this rotating series of regents and court advisors.

Ihinduka ryabaye ahagana mu wa 202 M.K., igihe Agathocles yabaga umurinzi-mwami utegeka cyane kurusha abandi, ariko akangwa n’abatari bake bitewe n’ubusambanyi bwe no gucunga nabi ubutegetsi. Imyivumbagatanyo y’abaturage yabereye i Alexandria yatumye yicishwa urw’agashinyaguro n’agatsiko k’abantu, umwami-w’umuhungu na we abyemera ku izina gusa. Abarinzi-mwami bamukurikiyeho ni Tlepolemus, umutware wa Pelusium, hanyuma Aristomenes. Mu gihe cy’intambara ya Panium mu wa 200 M.K., ubwami bwari buyobowe n’uru ruhererekane rw’abarinzi-mwami n’abajyanama b’ibwami basimburanaga.

At the battle of Panium the Ptolemaic forces were led in the field by the general Scopas of Aetolia, a mercenary commander appointed under the regency, not by Ptolemy V himself. The young king had no real control—the decisions, military strategy, and kingdom’s overall weakness stemmed from the regents’ paralysis, internal revolts (like the native Egyptian uprisings), and court intrigue. This instability allowed Antiochus III the Great to decisively defeat Scopas at Panium, seizing Coele-Syria, including Judea permanently from Ptolemaic control.

Mu rugamba rw’i Panium, ingabo z’Abaputoleme ziyobowe ku rugamba na jenerali Skopasi w’Umwetoliya, wari umugaba w’abacancuro washyizweho n’ubutegetsi bw’ubwishingizi bw’umwami, si na Putoleme wa V ubwe. Uwo mwami ukiri muto nta butegetsi nyakuri yari afite—imyanzuro, ingamba za gisirikare, n’intege nke rusange z’ubwami byaturukaga ku kudashobora gukora kw’abishingizi b’umwami, imyivumbagatanyo yo mu gihugu imbere (nk’imyigaragambyo y’Abanyegiputa kavukire), n’amayeri yo mu rugo rw’ibwami. Uku kudahagarara kwatumye Antiyokusi wa III Mukuru atsinda byimazeyo Skopasi i Panium, yigarurira Koele-Siriya, harimo n’u Buyuda, abikura burundu mu butegetsi bw’Abaputoleme.

Historians discuss the probability that Ptolemy IV’s death was by poisoning, which is also part of the historical speculation concerning Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, as well as the queen of the south, Cleopatra. Putin prevails in the Ukrainian War, but then his demise begins with his desire to implement the controlling relationship that the Soviet Union formerly had with the Ukrainian church, which when removed in 1989, was the symbol of the victory of the king of the north over the king of the south.

Abanditsi b’amateka baganira ku bishoboka ko urupfu rwa Ptolémée IV rwatewe n’uburozi, kandi ibyo na byo biri mu bikekwaho mu mateka ku byerekeye Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, kimwe n’umwamikazi wo mu majyepfo, Cleopatra. Putin atsinda mu Ntambara ya Ukraine, ariko rero irimbuka rye ritangira n’icyifuzo cye cyo gushyiraho umubano w’ubugenzuzi Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Abasoviyeti zari zisanzwe zifitanye n’itorero ryo muri Ukraine, uwo mubano ubwo wavwagaho mu 1989, wari ikimenyetso cy’intsinzi y’umwami wo mu majyaruguru ku mwami wo mu majyepfo.

The Ukraine is the cradle of Eastern Slavic Orthodoxy. The baptism of Vladimir the Great took place in 988 in Kyiv. Moscow later claimed the title “Third Rome” after Constantinople fell, positioning itself as the rightful heir and spiritual guardian of all Russian lands, including the Ukraine as its “canonical territory”.

Ukrayina ni yo nkomoko y’Uburafuriki bw’Aborutodogisi b’Abasilave bo mu Burasirazuba. Umubatizo wa Vladimir Mukuru wabereye i Kyiv mu mwaka wa 988. Nyuma yaho Moscou yaje kwiyitirira izina rya “Roma ya Gatatu” nyuma y’uguhanuka kwa Constantinople, yiyerekana nk’umuzungura ukwiriye kandi umurinzi w’iby’umwuka wemewe w’ibihugu byose by’Abarusiya, harimwo na Ukrayina nk’“intara yayo y’igitabo-cya-kiliziya”.

The Moscow Patriarchate has always viewed Ukraine as spiritually inseparable from Russia with the motto of “One people, one faith,” which is a phrase Putin himself has repeatedly used. Ukraine, especially since 2014/2022, increasingly sees Moscow’s oversight as colonial and imperial domination rather than true spiritual motherhood. As of February 2026, there are two competing Orthodox structures. One is the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, which since 2019 has been independent from Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople. In Kyiv the Orthodox Church of Ukraine is considered as the truly national church.

Patirikarikati ya Mosiko yahoraga ifata Ukraine nk’idasobanuwe mu by’umwuka itandukanijwe n’u Burusiya, ikurikije intego igira iti “Abantu umwe, ukwizera kumwe,” akaba ari imvugo na Putin ubwe yakoresheje kenshi. Ukraine, cyane cyane kuva mu 2014/2022, igenda irushaho kubona ubuyobozi bwa Mosiko nk’ubutegetsi bwa gikoloni n’ubw’ingoma y’ubwami bwagutse, aho kububona nk’ububyeyi nyabwo bwo mu by’umwuka. Kugeza muri Gashyantare 2026, hari inzego ebyiri za Orutodogisi zihiganwa. Rumwe ni Itorero rya Orutodogisi rya Ukraine, kuva mu 2019 rikaba ryarabaye ryigenga kuri Patiriyari Ekumeni Bartolomewo wa Konstantinopole. I Kyiv, Itorero rya Orutodogisi rya Ukraine rifatwa nk’Itorero ry’ukuri ry’igihugu.

Reader beware: the Orthodox Church of Ukraine is a different church than the Ukrainian Orthodox church. The Ukrainian Orthodox church is connected with Russia’s orthodox church, and for this reason Zelenskyy has been attacking it. The Vatican opposes the attacks of Zelenskyy that are already underway, but Putin’s rebellion of verse twelve follows his victory at Raphia, and is yet future.

Umusomyi niyitondere: Kiliziya Orutodogisi y’u Ukraine ni kiliziya itandukanye na Kiliziya Orutodogisi ya Ukraine. Kiliziya Orutodogisi ya Ukraine ifitanye isano na Kiliziya Orutodogisi y’u Burusiya, kandi ni yo mpamvu Zelenskyy yayigabyeho ibitero. Vatikani irwanya ibyo bitero bya Zelenskyy byatangiye gukorwa, ariko ubugome bwa Putin bwo mu murongo wa cumi na kabiri bukurikira intsinzi ye i Raphia, kandi buracyari ubwa kazoza.

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church was historically linked to the Moscow body. In the aftermath of the invasion of 2022, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church declared full autonomy in May 2022, but Ukrainian state investigations (DESS) have repeatedly argued it remains canonically and legally affiliated with Moscow. Ukraine passed a law in August 2024 (signed by Zelenskyy) banning any religious body tied to the Russian Orthodox Church (the “aggressor state”). The Ukrainian Orthodox Church has been ordered to fully sever ties or face court-ordered dissolution of its Kyiv Metropolis. As of late 2025 and early 2026, there are ongoing raids, parish transfers to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (over 1,300 since 2022), court cases, and UN experts warning of religious-freedom concerns regarding the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.

Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi rya Ukraine ryari rifitanye isano mu mateka n’urwego rwa Moscow. Nyuma y’igitero cyo mu mwaka wa 2022, Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi rya Ukraine ryatangaje ubwigenge busesuye muri Gicurasi 2022, ariko iperereza rya Leta ya Ukraine (DESS) ryakomeje kenshi kuvuga ko rigikomeje kuba rifitanye isano na Moscow mu buryo bwa kanoni no mu buryo bw’amategeko. Muri Kanama 2024, Ukraine yashyizeho itegeko (ryashyizweho umukono na Zelenskyy) ribuza urwego urwo ari rwo rwose rw’idini rufitanye isano n’Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi ry’u Burusiya (ryitwa “igihugu gitero”). Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi rya Ukraine ryategetswe guca burundu iyo sano, bitaba ibyo rikazahura n’iseswa ritegetswe n’urukiko ry’Umurwa Mukuru waryo wa Kyiv. Kuva mu mpera za 2025 no mu ntangiriro za 2026, hakomeje kuba ibitero by’ubugenzuzi n’ikorwa ry’iperereza, kwimurira amaparuwasi mu Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi rya Ukraine (arenga 1,300 kuva mu 2022), imanza mu nkiko, ndetse n’impuguke z’Umuryango w’Abibumbye ziburira ku bibazo birebana n’ubwisanzure bw’idini ku byerekeye Itorero ry’Aborutodogisi rya Ukraine.

The Vatican has publicly opposed any forced dissolution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Russia and Putin frame this as outright persecution of canonical Orthodoxy and have made protection of the “Russian Orthodox churches” an explicit demand in any peace negotiations. Russian propaganda consistently ties the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian state attacks upon it as “Nazism” and as part of their “denazification” justification.

Vatikani yamaganiye ku mugaragaro iyaseswa iryo ari ryo ryose rihatiwe ry’Itorero rya Orutodogisi ryo muri Ukraine. U Burusiya na Putin babigaragaza nk’itotezwa rigaragara rikorerwa Orutodogisi yemewe na kanoni, kandi bagize kurinda “amatorero ya Orutodogisi y’Abarusiya” icyifuzo kigaragara mu mishyikirano iyo ari yo yose y’amahoro. Poropagande y’u Burusiya ihora ihuza Itorero rya Orutodogisi ryo muri Ukraine n’ibitero bya Leta ya Ukraine birikoreraho n’“Ubunazi” kandi ikabifata nk’igice cy’urwitwazo rwabo rw’“ukurandura Ubunazi.”

Putin will presumptuously “enter the temple” and claim full spiritual dominion over Ukrainian Orthodoxy in attempt to re-subordinate the entire Ukrainian church structure under Moscow, demanding recognition as the rightful spiritual head of the Russian orthodox world.

Putin azinjira mu buryo bwo kwihandagaza “mu rusengero” kandi azavuga ko afite ubutware bwuzuye bwo mu mwuka ku Butodogisi bwa Ukraine, agerageza kongera gushyira imiterere yose y’Itorero rya Ukraine munsi ya Moscou, asaba kwemerwa nk’umutware ukwiriye wo mu mwuka w’isi y’Aborutodogisi b’Abarusiya.

This is the exact parallel to Ptolemy entering the Most Holy Place, while Uzziah is Zelenskyy seeking to burn incense. Ptolemy’s rebellion was in the Most Holy Place and Uzziah’s was in the holy place. A southern king, flushed with the victory of the “borderline,” ending the proxy-power of Nazism, and then overstepping into the place that belongs only to the realm of religion. Then will come a sudden providential humbling, and Putin will disappear from the scene (as Ptolemy IV died in 204 BC). After the power vacuum of a ‘weak-successors phase,’ the northern king returns with greater force and prevails at the modern battle of Panium in verse 15.

Ibi ni yo shusho nyakuri ihwanye na Ptolemy winjira Ahera Cyane, mu gihe Uziya ari Zelenskyy ushaka kosereza imibavu. Ubugome bwa Ptolemy bwabereye mu Ahera Cyane, naho ubwa Uziya bubera mu ahera. Umwami w’ikusi, usindagijwe n’insinzi y’“umupaka,” asoza ububasha bw’ubusimbura bwa Nazi, hanyuma akarenza imbibi akinjira ahantu hagenewe gusa urwego rw’idini. Maze hazaza kwicisha bugufi gutunguranye guturutse ku Mana, kandi Putin azava ku rubyiniro rw’ibibera (nk’uko Ptolemy wa IV yapfuye mu mwaka wa 204 mbere ya Kristo). Nyuma y’icyuho cy’ubutegetsi cyo mu “cyiciro cy’abasimbura b’abanyantege nke,” umwami w’amajyaruguru azagaruka afite imbaraga zisumbuyeho kandi azanesha mu ntambara ya Panium y’iki gihe ivugwa mu murongo wa 15.

## Seventeen

Cumi na karindwi

Seventeen years occurs three times in the history where the battles of Raphia and Panium merge together, line upon line. The seventeen years from the edict of Milan where the eastern and western thrones of the empire were brought together through marriage, until the kingdom was divided and divorced in 330. The seventeen years beginning and ending are waymarks of two other related prophetic periods. Beginning with Nero in the year 64 a period of persecution is marked that ended in the history of Constantine the Great. The transition from Nero’s period of persecution unto the compromise represented by Constantine identifies the transition from the church of Smyrna unto the church of Pergamos. 313 and the edict of Milan identify the end of the church of Smyrna, and the end of the seventeen-year period is the year 330, which was the fulfillment of the three-hundred-and-sixty-year prophecy of Daniel 11:24.

Imyaka cumi n’irindwi iboneka incuro eshatu mu mateka aho intambara za Raphia na Panium zihurira hamwe, umurongo ku murongo. Imyaka cumi n’irindwi uhereye ku itegeko rya Milan aho intebe z’ubwami z’iburasirazuba n’iz’iburengerazuba z’ubwami bw’ingoma zahujwe binyuze mu ishyingiranwa, kugeza ubwo ubwami bwacikagamo ibice kandi bugatandukanywa mu mwaka wa 330. Imyaka cumi n’irindwi itangira kandi igasoza ni ibimenyetso by’inzira by’ibindi bihe bibiri by’ubuhanuzi bifitanye isano. Guhera kuri Nero mu mwaka wa 64, hagaragajwe igihe cy’itotezwa cyarangiye mu mateka ya Constantine Mukuru. Ihinduka riva mu gihe cy’itotezwa cya Nero rikajya ku bwumvikane buke bwashushanyijwe na Constantine rigaragaza ihinduka riva ku itorero rya Smyrna rikajya ku itorero rya Pergamosi. Umwaka wa 313 n’itegeko rya Milan bigaragaza iherezo ry’itorero rya Smyrna, kandi iherezo ry’igihe cy’imyaka cumi n’irindwi ni umwaka wa 330, ari na bwo habayeho isohozwa ry’ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka magana atatu na mirongo itandatu bwa Daniyeli 11:24.

> He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time. Daniel 11:24.

> Azinjirana amahoro ndetse no ku hantu hahingutse cyane ho mu ntara; kandi azakora ibyo ba sekuruza be batigeze bakora, cyangwa se ba sekuruza ba sekuruza be; azabagabanyiriza iminyago n’ibinyazwe n’ubutunzi: koko azategurira ibihome bikomeye imigambi ye, kugeza igihe runaka. Daniyeli 11:24.

The seventeen years from 313 and the edict of Milan, begins with a fulfillment of prophecy and ends at the fulfillment of another prophecy. The first prophetic fulfillment which marks the beginning, identifies the transition from the church of Smyrna unto the church of Pergamos, and the prophecy that marks the end of those seventeen years, identifies the division of Rome into eastern and western Rome. The seventeen years is identified by prophetic history, not by any specific seventeen-year proclamation. The alpha of the division of the second church from the third church aligned with the division of the empire into east and west at the fulfillment of the time prophecy of 360 years. Those two prophecies establish a period of seventeen years, and they need to be established as a legitimate prophetic period based upon the witness of two or three; if seventeen is a valid prophetic symbol.

Imyaka cumi n’irindwi itangirira mu wa 313 no ku itegeko rya Milan, itangirana no gusohora k’ubuhanuzi kandi igasozwa no gusohora kw’ubundi buhanuzi. Ugusohora kwa mbere k’ubuhanuzi kuranga intangiriro, kugaragaza ihinduka riva ku itorero rya Simuruna rijya ku itorero rya Perugamo, kandi ubuhanuzi buranga iherezo ry’iyo myaka cumi n’irindwi, bugaragaza igabanywa rya Roma mo Roma y’iburasirazuba na Roma y’iburengerazuba. Iyo myaka cumi n’irindwi igaragazwa n’amateka y’ubuhanuzi, atari n’itangazo iryo ari ryo ryose ryihariye ry’imyaka cumi n’irindwi. Alufa y’igabanywa ry’itorero rya kabiri n’iryagatatu yahuriranye n’igabanywa ry’ubwami mo iburasirazuba n’iburengerazuba igihe ubuhanuzi bw’igihe cy’imyaka 360 bwasohoraga. Ubwo buhanuzi bubiri bushyiraho igihe cy’imyaka cumi n’irindwi, kandi bigomba kwemezwa nk’igihe cy’ubuhanuzi gifite ishingiro gishingiye ku buhamya bwa babiri cyangwa batatu, niba cumi n’irindwi ari ikimenyetso cy’ubuhanuzi gifite agaciro.

Those witnesses exist in another 250-year period which began in 457 BC. On that date the 2,300-year prophecy of Daniel 8:14 began. 457 BC is a prophetic starting point, and an established prophetic waymark. Extending 250 years into the future brings you to 207 BC, which is the history between the battles of Raphia and Panium. The battle of Raphia and Panium cannot be separated, for they are both engaged in by Antiochus the Great. From the battle of Raphia in 217 BC unto the battle of Panium in 200 BC is seventeen years. The 2,300-year prophecy identifies a change of dispensation at the beginning, when the third decree restored Judah’s national sovereignty and then at the ending there was a change of dispensation when Christ moved from the holy place to the Most Holy Place. 207 BC represents the change of dispensation of Egyptian rule over Judea, unto the Seleucid dispensation of rule over the glorious land. The dispensation of Seleucid control over the glorious land produced the revolt of the Maccabees in 167 BC.

Abo bagabo bari mu kindi gihe cy’imyaka 250 cyatangiriye mu wa 457 mbere ya Kristo. Kuri iyo tariki ni ho ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka 2,300 bwo muri Daniyeli 8:14 bwatangiriye. Umwaka wa 457 mbere ya Kristo ni intangiriro y’ubuhanuzi kandi ni ikimenyetso cy’ubuhanuzi cyamaze gushingwa. Kongeraho imyaka 250 ujya imbere bigugeza mu wa 207 mbere ya Kristo, ari yo mateka ari hagati y’intambara za Raphia na Panium. Intambara ya Raphia n’iya Panium ntizishobora gutandukanywa, kuko zombi zarwanywe na Antiochus Mukuru. Uhereye ku ntambara ya Raphia mu wa 217 mbere ya Kristo ukageza ku ntambara ya Panium mu wa 200 mbere ya Kristo ni imyaka cumi n’irindwi. Ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka 2,300 bugaragaza ihinduka ry’igihe cy’imiyoborere ku ntangiriro yabwo, ubwo itegeko rya gatatu ryasubizaga u Buyuda ubwigenge bwabwo bw’igihugu, kandi no ku iherezo habayeho ihinduka ry’igihe cy’imiyoborere ubwo Kristo yimukaga ava Ahera akajya Ahera Cyane. Umwaka wa 207 mbere ya Kristo ugereranya ihinduka ry’igihe cy’ubutegetsi bw’Abanyegiputa kuri Yudaya, rijya mu gihe cy’ubutegetsi bw’Abaselewukusi ku gihugu cy’ikuzo. Igihe cy’ubutegetsi bw’Abaselewukusi ku gihugu cy’ikuzo cyabyaye ukwivumbagatanya kw’Abamakabayo mu wa 167 mbere ya Kristo.

The Nero period of 250 years ends with the history of Constantine the GREAT and the 250 years that conclude between the two battles is the history of Antiochus the GREAT. At the battle of Raphia, Ptolemy IV defeated Antiochus the Great and Ptolemy reigned for seventeen years. Both 250-year periods contain a distinct seventeen-year period. Both end in the history of a ruler who is known as the GREAT. Both 250-year periods begin at an established prophetic waymark and they both end at an established prophetic waymark.

Igihe cya Nero cy’imyaka 250 kirangirana n’amateka ya Konsitantini MUKURU, kandi imyaka 250 isozwa hagati y’intambara ebyiri ni amateka ya Antiyokusi MUKURU. Mu ntambara ya Rafiya, Putolemee wa IV yatsinze Antiyokusi Mukuru, maze Putolemee ategeka imyaka cumi n’irindwi. Ibi bihe byombi by’imyaka 250 birimo igihe cyihariye cy’imyaka cumi n’irindwi. Byombi birangirira mu mateka y’umutegetsi uzwi ku izina rya MUKURU. Ibi bihe byombi by’imyaka 250 bitangirira ku kimenyetso cy’ubuhanuzi cyamaze gushyirwaho kandi byombi birangirira ku kimenyetso cy’ubuhanuzi cyamaze gushyirwaho.

The United States began on July 4, 1776 and 250 years later brings you to July 4, 2026 when Donald Trump, who is known as the one seeking to make America “great,” is going to celebrate those 250 years. 2026, like unto the 250 years from 457 BC concludes in the middle of the history of the modern battles of Raphia and Panium, known as the Ukrainian and Third World War. The reign of a southern king, the period of the first Sunday law and the period from the battle of Raphia to Panium provide three periods of seventeen years that are all connected with the same prophetic history. Three 250-year periods all arrive together in the same prophetic histories. The three periods of 250 years establish three lines of prophetic truth with history associated with Donald Trump, represented as either Constantine the Great, or Antiochus the Great.

Leta Zunze Ubumwe za Amerika zatangiye ku wa 4 Nyakanga 1776, kandi imyaka 250 nyuma yaho ikugeza ku wa 4 Nyakanga 2026, ubwo Donald Trump, uzwi nk’ushaka kongera kugira Amerika “ikomeye,” azizihiza iyo myaka 250. Umwaka wa 2026, kimwe n’igihe cy’imyaka 250 gitangirira mu wa 457 Mbere ya Kristo, usozwa hagati mu mateka y’intambara za Raphia na Panium zo muri iki gihe cya none, zizwi nk’intambara ya Ukraine n’Intambara ya Gatatu y’Isi Yose. Ingoma y’umwami wo mu majyepfo, igihe cy’itegeko rya mbere ryo ku Cyumweru, n’igihe kuva ku ntambara ya Raphia kugera kuri Panium bitanga ibihe bitatu by’imyaka cumi n’irindwi, byose bifitanye isano n’amateka amwe y’ubuhanuzi. Ibihe bitatu by’imyaka 250 byose bihurira hamwe mu mateka amwe y’ubuhanuzi. Ibi bihe bitatu by’imyaka 250 bishyiraho imirongo itatu y’ukuri kw’ubuhanuzi, ifitanye isano n’amateka ya Donald Trump, ugereranywa nka Constantine Mukuru cyangwa Antiochus Mukuru.

The three lines of 250 years provide three different, but complementary illustrations of the latter days. Nero’s line identifies the seventeen-year history of compromise that perfectly speaks to the prophetic characteristics of the formation of the image of the beast.

Imirongo itatu y’imyaka 250 itanga amashusho atatu atandukanye, ariko yuzuzanya, y’iminsi y’imperuka. Umurongo wa Nero ugaragaza amateka y’imyaka cumi n’irindwi y’ubwumvikane bwo guteshuka, asobanura mu buryo bwuzuye ibiranga by’ubuhanuzi by’ikorwa ry’ishusho ya cya gikoko.

> “The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. Your position is such a jumble of inconsistencies that but few will be deceived.

> “Uwiteka yanyeretse mu buryo busobanutse ko ishusho ya cya kigwahare izaremwa igihe cy’imbabazi kitarafungwa; kuko ari yo izaba ikigeragezo gikomeye ku bwoko bw’Imana, ari na cyo kizagena iherezo ryabo ry’iteka ryose. Uko uhagaze ni uruvange rw’imivurungano n’ibidahura ku buryo abantu bake cyane ari bo bazayobywa.

> “In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].

> “Mu Byahishuwe 13 iyi nsanganyamatsiko igaragazwa mu buryo bweruye; [Ibyahishuwe 13:11–17, byavuzwe].”

> “This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

> “Iki ni cyo kigeragezo ubwoko bw’Imana bugomba kugira mbere y’uko bushyirwaho ikimenyetso. Abazaba bose baragaragaje ubudahemuka bwabo ku Mana bubahiriza amategeko yayo, kandi bakanga kwemera isabato y’impimbano, bazashyirwa munsi y’ibendera ry’Umwami Imana Yehova, kandi bazahabwa ikimenyetso cy’Imana ihoraho. Abaretse ukuri gukomoka mu ijuru maze bakemera isabato yo ku Cyumweru, bazahabwa ikimenyetso cya ya nyamaswa.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

The image of the beast is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. The compromise of Constantine in attempting to bring paganism together with Christianity is the classic example of the compromise of the latter days.

Ishusho y’inyamaswa ni ihuriro ry’itorero na leta, aho itorero ari ryo rigenga uwo mubano. Ubwumvikane bwa Konstantini bwo kugerageza guhuza ubupagani n’Ubukristo ni urugero rw’ikirenga rw’ubwumvikane bwo mu minsi y’imperuka.

> “In the movements now in progress in the United States to secure for the institutions and usages of the church the support of the state, Protestants are following in the steps of papists. Nay, more, they are opening the door for the papacy to regain in Protestant America the supremacy which she has lost in the Old World. And that which gives greater significance to this movement is the fact that the principal object contemplated is the enforcement of Sunday observance—a custom which originated with Rome, and which she claims as the sign of her authority. It is the spirit of the papacy—the spirit of conformity to worldly customs, the veneration for human traditions above the commandments of God—that is permeating the Protestant churches and leading them on to do the same work of Sunday exaltation which the papacy has done before them.

> “Mu ngendo zirimo kuba ubu muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika zo gushakira inzego n’imikoreshereze by’itorero ubufasha bwa Leta, Abaporotesitanti barimo gukurikira inzira z’abayoboke b’ubupapa. Kandi n’ikirenzeho, barimo gukingurira ubupapa urugi kugira ngo bwongere kwigarurira muri Amerika y’Abaporotesitanti ubutware bw’ikirenga bwatakaje mu Isi ya Kera. Kandi igituma uku kugenda kurushaho kugira ubusobanuro bukomeye ni uko intego nyamukuru iri gutekerezwa ari ugushyiraho kubahiriza umunsi wa Ku cyumweru ku gahato—umuco watangiriye i Roma, kandi ubupapa bukawuvuga ko ari ikimenyetso cy’ubutware bwabwo. Ni umwuka w’ubupapa—umwuka wo kwihuza n’imigenzo y’isi, wo guha icyubahiro imihango y’abantu kuyirutisha amategeko y’Imana—uri kwinjira mu matorero y’Abaporotesitanti kandi ukayajyana gukora umurimo nk’uwo wo gushyira hejuru umunsi wa Ku cyumweru ubupapa bwakoze mbere yabo.”

> “If the reader would understand the agencies to be employed in the soon-coming contest, he has but to trace the record of the means which Rome employed for the same object in ages past. If he would know how papists and Protestants united will deal with those who reject their dogmas, let him see the spirit which Rome manifested toward the Sabbath and its defenders.

> Niba umusomyi ashaka gusobanukirwa n’ibikoresho bizakoreshwa muri iyo ntambara yenda kuza vuba, icyo agomba gukora ni ugukurikirana amateka y’uburyo Roma yakoresheje kugira ngo igere kuri uwo mugambi mu bihe byahise. Niba ashaka kumenya uko Abapapa n’Abaporotesitanti bishyize hamwe bazafata abanga inyigisho zabo, narebe umwuka Roma yagaragaje ku Isabato no ku bayirwaniriye.

> “Royal edicts, general councils, and church ordinances sustained by secular power were the steps by which the pagan festival attained its position of honor in the Christian world. The first public measure enforcing Sunday observance was the law enacted by Constantine. (A.D. 321) This edict required townspeople to rest on ‘the venerable day of the sun,’ but permitted countrymen to continue their agricultural pursuits. Though virtually a heathen statute, it was enforced by the emperor after his nominal acceptance of Christianity.” The Great Controversy, 574.

> “Amateka y’abami, inama nkuru rusange, n’amabwiriza y’itorero yashyigikiwe n’ububasha bw’isi ni byo byabaye intambwe umunsi mukuru wa gipagani wazamukiraho ukagera ku mwanya w’icyubahiro mu isi ya Gikristo. Igipimo cya mbere cya rubanda cyashyizeho itegeko ryo kwizihiza ku Cyumweru cyari itegeko ryashyizweho na Konstantino. (A.D. 321) Iri tegeko ryasabaga abatuye mu mijyi kuruhuka ku ‘munsi w’izuba wubahwa,’ ariko ryemereraga abatuye mu cyaro gukomeza imirimo yabo y’ubuhinzi. Nubwo mu by’ukuri ryari itegeko rya gipagani, umwami w’abami yarishyize mu bikorwa nyuma yo kwemera kwa gihamya gusa Ubukristo.” The Great Controversy, 574.

The progression of compromise that led to, and will again lead to the Sunday law is represented with the seventeen-year period from 313 to 330, with the first Sunday law of 321 as the midpoint of the history. At the beginning was a marriage of east and west, and at the end was the divorce of east and west. The first Sunday law is the middle waymark representing rebellion, just as the thirteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, when preceded by the first letter and followed by the twenty-second and last letter of the alphabet makes up the Hebrew word truth. Marriage at the beginning and divorce at the end identifies the alpha letter in agreement with the omega letter. The period of 250-years that began with Nero has the signature of Christ, and it speaks to a subject of present truth in the latter days.

Urukurikirane rw’uko kujya mu bwumvikane bubi kwagiye gutera imbere kwagejeje ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru, kandi kuzongera kurigezaho, rugereranywa n’igihe cy’imyaka cumi n’irindwi kuva mu 313 kugeza mu 330, aho itegeko rya mbere ryo ku Cyumweru ryo mu 321 riri hagati y’ayo mateka. Mu ntangiriro habayeho ugushyingiranwa kw’iburasirazuba n’iburengerazuba, naho ku iherezo habaho ugutandukana kw’iburasirazuba n’iburengerazuba. Itegeko rya mbere ryo ku Cyumweru ni cyo kimenyetso cyo hagati kigereranya ubugome bwo kwigomeka, nk’uko inyuguti ya cumi na gatatu y’inyuguti z’Igiheburayo, iyo ibanjirijwe n’inyuguti ya mbere kandi igakurikirwa n’iya makumyabiri na kabiri ari na yo ya nyuma y’inyuguti z’izo nyuguti, bigize ijambo ry’Igiheburayo risobanura ukuri. Ishyingiranwa ryo mu ntangiriro n’ugutandukana ku iherezo byerekana inyuguti alfa ihuje n’inyuguti omega. Igihe cy’imyaka magana abiri na mirongo itanu cyatangiranye na Nero gifite ikimenyetso kiranga Kristo, kandi kivuga ku ngingo y’ukuri kw’iki gihe mu minsi y’imperuka.

The 250-year period that begins with 457 BC is emphasizing the statecraft represented by Antiochus the Great as he stands within the seventeen-year period from Raphia to Panium. We understand it as statecraft, for in 457 BC a prophecy of 2,300 years also began. The 2,300 years is the internal line of prophecy that speaks to God’s work of redemption, which aligns with a symbol of churchcraft. Unlike the 250-year period that began with Nero, the period that begins in 457 BC is addressing the political role of the last American president who is seeking to make America and then the world great, as he promotes the erroneous Catholic concept of a golden age of a thousand years of peace.

Igihe cy’imyaka 250 gitangirira mu wa 457 Mbere ya Kristo gishyira imbaraga ku buhanga bwo gutegeka igihugu bugereranywa na Antiyokusi Mukuru nk’uko ahagaze mu gihe cy’imyaka cumi n’irindwi uhereye i Rafiya ukageza i Paniyumu. Tubisobanukirwa nk’ubuhanga bwo gutegeka igihugu, kuko mu wa 457 Mbere ya Kristo ari na bwo ubuhanuzi bw’imyaka 2,300 bwatangiye. Icyo gihe cy’imyaka 2,300 ni umurongo w’imbere w’ubuhanuzi uvuga umurimo w’Imana wo gucungura, uhuye n’ikimenyetso cy’ubuhanga bw’itorero. Bitandukanye n’igihe cy’imyaka 250 cyatangiranye na Nero, igihe gitangirira mu wa 457 Mbere ya Kristo kivuga ku ruhare rwa politiki rw’umukuru wa nyuma wa Amerika ushaka kongera gukomera kwa Amerika hanyuma n’isi, mu gihe ateza imbere igitekerezo cya Gatolika kiyobye cy’igihe cy’izahabu cy’imyaka igihumbi cy’amahoro.

The 250 years of the United States, who is the earth beast of Revelation thirteen identifies the conclusion of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, that ends where it began, in the midst of war. The victors of history, define the record of history that is preserved. The globalist dragon powered Democrats, view the current anarchy as a revolution, and the all-talk and no action Republicans view this current history as a civil war. The Democrats are representatives of the dragon of Bible prophecy, and the Republicans are represented as apostate Protestants, or in the terms of John in Revelation sixteen, they are the false prophet. The United States began in a war of revolution and it ends with a war of revolution. The Republican party began in a civil war and they end in a civil war. Republicans see the civil war that Democrats call a revolution.

Imyaka 250 ya Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika, ari yo nyamaswa yavuye mu isi ivugwa mu Byahishuwe igice cya cumi na gatatu, igaragaza iherezo ry’ubwami bwa gatandatu bw’ubuhanuzi bwa Bibiliya, busoreza aho bwatangiriye, hagati mu ntambara.

Abademokarate ni bo bahagarariye ikiyoka cy’ubuhanuzi bwa Bibiliya, kandi Abarepubulikani bahagarariwe nk’Abaporotesitanti bateshutse, cyangwa se mu mvugo ya Yohana yo mu Byahishuwe igice cya cumi na gatandatu, ni bo muhanuzi w’ibinyoma. Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika zatangiye mu ntambara y’impinduramatwara kandi zisozwa n’intambara y’impinduramatwara. Ishyaka ry’Abarepubulikani ryatangiye mu ntambara y’abaturage kandi rirangirana n’intambara y’abaturage. Abarepubulikani babona intambara y’abaturage Abademokarate bita impinduramatwara.

Trump, as the last Republican president possesses the prophetic attributes of the first Republican president, who arrived in the external history of the Civil War. Lincoln’s external Civil War was also the internal history of Isaiah’s prophecy of chapter seven, verse eight that ended in 1863, the very year of the Emancipation Proclamation. The distinction between the two parties is a primary and foundational prophetic principle. It began with Cain and Abel, who in the time of Christ were represented by the Sadducees and the Pharisees, two classes of Cain who were to murder one Abel.

Trump, nk’umukuru w’igihugu wa nyuma wo mu ishyaka ry’Abarepubulikani, afite ibimenyetso by’ubuhanuzi byarangaga umukuru w’igihugu wa mbere wo muri iryo shyaka, wageze mu mateka agaragara y’Intambara y’Abanyagihugu. Intambara y’Abanyagihugu ya Lincoln yo mu rwego rw’amateka agaragara na yo yari amateka y’imbere y’ubuhanuzi bwa Yesaya bwo mu gice cya karindwi, umurongo wa munani, bwarangiriye mu 1863, ari na wo mwaka nyir’izina w’Itangazo ryo Kubohora Abacakara. Itandukaniro riri hagati y’ayo mashyaka yombi ni ihame ry’ubuhanuzi ry’ibanze kandi ry’ishingiro. Ryatangiranye na Kayini na Abeli, ari bo mu gihe cya Kristo bahagarariwe n’Abasadukayo n’Abafarisayo, amatsinda abiri ya Kayini yagombaga kwica Abeli umwe.

The Pharisees and Sadducees represent those who agreed to crucify their Messiah, for different reasons, but agreement—just the same. The Pharisees professed to uphold the law, but didn’t, as with Republicans. The Pharisees professed to uphold the original divine law, but interpreted the law through their own bigoted logic. The original Law for the Pharisees is the Constitution for the Republicans, the very Constitution they claim to support, but don’t. The Sadducees rejected the power of God, and though a smaller sect than the Pharisees, the Sadducees controlled the religious and political landscape of Judea in the time of Christ. The Democrats are a smaller sect than the Republicans, so small they must cheat to stay in power, but stay in power they do, for their opponents who profess to uphold equal justice for all, do nothing to enforce the principles of the law they profess to uphold.

Abafarisayo n’Abasadukayo bashushanya abemeye kubamba Mesiya wabo, kubera impamvu zitandukanye, ariko ubwumvikane—ni bwo bumwe rwose. Abafarisayo bavugaga ko barengera amategeko, ariko ntibabikore, nk’uko bimeze ku ba-Repubulikani. Abafarisayo bavugaga ko barengera Amategeko y’umwimerere y’Imana, ariko bagasobanura ayo Mategeko binyuze mu mitekerereze yabo bwite irimo ivangura. Amategeko y’umwimerere ku Bafarisayo ni yo Itegeko Nshinga ku ba-Repubulikani, ari ryo Tegeko Nshinga nyir’izina bavuga ko bashyigikiye, nyamara batabikora. Abasadukayo bahakanaga ubushobozi bw’Imana, kandi nubwo bari agatsiko gato ugereranyije n’Abafarisayo, ni bo Abasadukayo bagenzuraga imiterere y’iyobokamana n’iya politiki bya Yudaya mu gihe cya Kristo. Abademokarate ni agatsiko gato ugereranyije n’aba-Repubulikani, gato cyane ku buryo bagomba kunyereza kugira ngo bakomeze kuguma ku butegetsi, kandi koko bakagumaho, kuko abo bahanganye na bo bavuga ko barengera ubutabera bungana kuri bose, nyamara ntibagire icyo bakora ngo bashyire mu bikorwa amahame y’amategeko bavuga ko barengera.

There is nothing new under the sun, and the two political parties in the United States are as much a part of the prophetic landscape as were the Pharisees and Sadducees. There are of course many other parallels along this prophetic line, but it is only when you see the prophetic relationship of the two unholy powers, who though adversaries, become united against holiness, that you then see Ptolemy and Uzziah in the proper light. Both southern kings attempted to sacrifice at the same temple, but Ptolemy, from Egypt represents a dragon power—the Democrats. Uzziah, as king of Judea is the leader of the glorious land, who is apostate Protestantism, or the false prophet—the Republicans.

Nta gishya kiri munsi y’izuba, kandi amashyaka abiri ya politiki yo muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika ni igice kimwe cy’ahantu h’ubuhanuzi nk’uko Abafarisayo n’Abasadukayo na bo bari bameze. Birumvikana ko hari n’andi masano menshi ajyana n’uwo murongo w’ubuhanuzi, ariko ni uko gusa iyo ubonye isano ry’ubuhanuzi ry’izo mbaraga ebyiri zitari izera, zo nubwo ari abanzi, zishyira hamwe kurwanya ukwera, ari bwo ubona Ptolémée na Uziya mu mucyo ukwiriye. Abami bombi bo mu majyepfo bagerageje gutambira mu rusengero rumwe, ariko Ptolémée, ukomoka muri Egiputa, ahagarariye imbaraga z’ikiyoka—Abademokarate. Uziya, nk’umwami w’u Buyuda, ni umuyobozi w’igihugu cy’ikuzo, ari cyo Buporotesitanti bw’ubuhakanyi, cyangwa umuhanuzi w’ibinyoma—Abarepubulikani.

The relationship of the dragon and false prophet is classically represented at Mount Carmel. At the mount, Ahab represented the dragon and Jezebel’s prophets of Baal and Ashtaroth represented the false prophets who stood against Elijah. The beast that is Jezebel was still behind the scenes in Samaria. The dragon united with the false prophet was also represented by pagan Rome and the Jews unification at the cross, as will be the unification of the Democrats and the Republicans at the Sunday law. The elements of a united power are represented by the Democrats and Republicans within the Republican horn of the earth beast. Those two unholy political powers are represented by Cain, and the line of Abel also possesses a twofold division.

Isano iri hagati y’ikiyoka n’umuhanuzi w’ibinyoma yagaragajwe mu buryo busanzwe ku Musozi wa Karumeli. Kuri uwo musozi, Ahabu yagereranyaga ikiyoka, kandi abahanuzi ba Bayali na Asitaroti ba Yezebeli bagereranyaga abahanuzi b’ibinyoma bahagurukiye kurwanya Eliya. Inyamaswa ari yo Yezebeli yari igikora inyuma y’amarembo i Samariya. Ikiyoka cyifatanyije n’umuhanuzi w’ibinyoma na cyo cyagereranyijwe n’ubumwe bwa Roma ya gipagani n’Abayuda ku musaraba, nk’uko bizaba no ku bumwe bw’Aba-Democrats n’Aba-Republicans ku itegeko ryo ku Cyumweru. Ibice bigize ubutegetsi bwunze ubumwe bigereranywa n’Aba-Democrats n’Aba-Republicans bari mu ihembe rya Republican ry’inyamaswa yo mu isi. Ubwo butegetsi bubiri bwa politiki butagatifu bugereranywa na Kayini, kandi umurongo wa Abeli na wo ufite igabanyikamo ry’impande ebyiri.

Abel’s line, which in relation to Cain’s external line is the internal line, and is represented by two classes of virgins. The progression of the Protestant horn of the earth beast that is the United States is represented by a series of religious purging’s beginning with the church of Sardis in 1798, when the United States became the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. Sardis was a church who had a name claiming that it lived, but it was dead. By 1798 the Protestant sects that had broken away from the papal church were already returning to Rome. Christians were first named Christians in Antioch.

Umurongo wa Abeli, ugereranyije n’umurongo wo hanze wa Kayini, ni wo murongo wo imbere, kandi ushushanywa n’amatsinda abiri y’abakobwa b’amasugi. Iterambere ry’ihembe rya Giporotesitanti ry’inyamaswa yo ku isi ari yo Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika, rishushanywa n’uruhererekane rw’ikorwa ryo kwezwa kw’idini ritangirana n’itorero rya Sarudi mu wa 1798, igihe Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika zabaga ubwami bwa gatandatu bw’ubuhanuzi bwa Bibiliya. Sarudi yari itorero rifite izina rivuga ko ari rizima, nyamara ryari ripfuye. Kugeza mu wa 1798, udutsiko twa Giporotesitanti twari twaritandukanije n’itorero rya gipapa twari dusanzwe dutangiye gusubira i Roma. Abakristo babanje kwitwa Abakristo bwa mbere muri Antiyokiya.

> “It was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. The name was given them because Christ was the main theme of their preaching, their teaching, and their conversation. Continually they were recounting the incidents that had occurred during the days of His earthly ministry, when His disciples were blessed with His personal presence. Untiringly they dwelt upon His teachings and His miracles of healing. With quivering lips and tearful eyes they spoke of His agony in the garden, His betrayal, trial, and execution, the forbearance and humility with which He had endured the contumely and torture imposed upon Him by His enemies, and the Godlike pity with which He had prayed for those who persecuted Him. His resurrection and ascension, and His work in heaven as the Mediator for fallen man, were topics on which they rejoiced to dwell. Well might the heathen call them Christians, since they preached Christ and addressed their prayers to God through Him.

> “I Antiyokiya ni ho abigishwa babanje kwitwa Abakristo. Iryo zina barihawe kuko Kristo ari we wari insanganyamatsiko nyamukuru y’ukubwiriza kwabo, y’inyigisho zabo, n’ibyo baganiragaho. Igihe cyose bahoraga bavuga ibyabaye mu minsi y’umurimo We ku isi, igihe abigishwa Be bahabwaga umugisha no kubana na We ubwe. Batarambirwa, bibandaga ku nyigisho Ze no ku bitangaza Bye byo gukiza. N’iminwa ihinda umushyitsi n’amaso yuzuye amarira bavugaga iby’umubabaro We mu murima, ukugambanirwa Kwe, urubanza rwe, no kwicwa Kwe, kwihangana no kwicisha bugufi byatumye yihanganira igisuzuguriro n’iyicarubozo byamukorewe n’abanzi Be, n’impuhwe nk’iz’Imana yasabiye abamurenganyaga. Izuka Rye no kuzamurwa Kwe, ndetse n’umurimo We wo mu ijuru wo kuba Umuhuza w’umuntu waguye, byari ingingo bishimiraga kugarukaho. Mu by’ukuri abanyamahanga bashoboraga rwose kubita Abakristo, kuko babwirizaga Kristo kandi bagasenga Imana banyuze muri We.

> “It was God who gave to them the name of Christian. This is a royal name, given to all who join themselves to Christ. It was of this name that James wrote later, ‘Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?’ James 2:6, 7. And Peter declared, ‘If any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.’ ‘If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you.’ 1 Peter 4:16, 14.” Acts of the Apostles, 157.

> “Iyo ni Imana yabahaye izina ry’Abakristo. Iri ni izina ry’ubwami, ryahawe abantu bose bifatanya na Kristo. Ni kuri iri zina Yakobo yaje kwandika nyuma ati: ‘Mbese abakire si bo babakandamiza, bakabakururira imbere y’intebe z’urubanza? Mbese si bo batuka iryo zina ryiza mwitiriwe?’ Yakobo 2:6, 7. Kandi Petero aravuga ati: ‘Umuntu niyababarira azira ko ari Umukristo, ntagakorwe n’isoni; ahubwo ahimbaze Imana ku bw’ibyo.’ ‘Nimugayozwa bazira izina rya Kristo, murahirwa; kuko Umwuka w’ubwiza n’uwa Imana aba kuri mwe.’ 1 Petero 4:16, 14.” Ibyakozwe n’Intumwa, 157.

The church of Ephesus was given the name of Christian which led to the persecuted church of Smyrna, that was followed by the church of compromise in the history of Pergamos. When the papacy took the throne, a separation identified God’s true church as the church in the wilderness. The Roman church was Thyatira. At the ending of the wilderness of twelve hundred and sixty years, the church of Protestantism arose, and from that point onward the Protestant horn is represented by a divine series of tests and purges.

Itorero rya Efeso ryahawe izina ry’Abakristo, ari ryo ryakurikiwe n’itorero rya Simuruna ryatotejwe, hanyuma rikurikirwa n’itorero ry’ubwumvikane bubi mu mateka ya Perugamo. Ubwo ubupapa bwafataga intebe y’ubwami, habayeho gutandukana kwagaragaje ko itorero ry’ukuri ry’Imana ari ryo torero ryo mu butayu. Itorero ry’Abaroma ryari Tiyatira. Igihe ubutayu bw’imyaka igihumbi magana abiri na mirongo itandatu bwari burangiye, havutse itorero ry’Abaporotesitanti, kandi uhereye icyo gihe ihembe ry’Abaporotesitanti rigaragazwa n’uruhererekane rw’ibizamini n’iyungururwa by’Imana.

Protestantism began when Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses upon the door in 1517, and “23” years later in 1540 the Jesuit order began. In 2013 the 95th and final presentation of Habakkuk’s Tables was nailed to the door, and on March 13, 2013¸ the first Jesuit pope was inaugurated. Martin Luther was excommunicated in that very history by pope Leo. Go figure…

Ubuporotesitanti bwatangiye igihe Martin Luther yamanikaga ku muryango inyandiko ze 95 mu mwaka wa 1517, hanyuma nyuma y’imyaka “23”, mu 1540, hatangira umuryango w’Abayezuwiti. Mu 2013, ikiganiro cya 95 kandi cya nyuma cy’“Ameza ya Habakkuk” cyamanitswe ku muryango, maze ku wa 13 Werurwe 2013, hahabwa ububasha papa wa mbere w’Umwezu w’Abayezuwiti. Muri ayo mateka nyine, Martin Luther yaciwe na papa Leo mu Itorero. Ibyo ubishyireho mu mutima…

In 1798 the church of Sardis claimed to hold to the name of “Protestant,” but by returning to Rome they were already failing to uphold their name. When Millerite Adventism took the torch of Protestantism in 1844, they represented a rebuke against Jeroboam the first king of Israel, a nation who were blood relatives of the tribe in Judah, where God had placed His temple. Jeroboam set up a counterfeit, based upon the religion that represented his nation’s former bondage. He repeated Aaron’s foundational rebellion of erecting an image of a beast with all the prophetic significance associated with the story. But at his dedication service Millerite Adventism rebuked his unwillingness to continue to direct true worship to the sanctuary where God lives. Jeroboam, wanted the focus of worship to be in Bethel and Dan, representing those from Sardis in 1844 who refused to follow Christ into the Most Holy Place.

Mu mwaka wa 1798 itorero rya Sarudi ryavugaga ko rifite izina rya “Abaporotesitanti,” ariko kubera gusubira i Roma ryari ryaratangiye kutabasha kurengera izina ryaryo. Igihe Ubugarukiro bwa Miller bw’Abadiventisiti bwafataga itoroshi ry’Ubuporotesitanti mu mwaka wa 1844, bwagaragazaga gucyaha Yerobowamu, umwami wa mbere wa Isirayeli, igihugu cyari gifitanye isano y’amaraso n’umuryango wo muri Yuda, aho Imana yari yarashyize urusengero rwayo. Yerobowamu yashyizeho icyiganano, gishingiye ku idini ryagereranyaga uburetwa bwa kera bw’igihugu cye. Yasubiyemo ubugome bw’ibanze bwa Aroni bwo kubaza igishushanyo cy’inyamaswa, hamwe n’ubusobanuro bwose bw’ubuhanuzi bufitanye isano n’iyo nkuru. Ariko mu murimo wo kuyegurira, Ubugarukiro bwa Miller bw’Abadiventisiti bwacyashye ukutemera kwe gukomeza kwerekeza kuramya kw’ukuri ku buturo bwera aho Imana ituye. Yerobowamu yashakaga ko intego yo kuramya iba i Beteli n’i Dani, ibyo bikaba bigereranya ab’i Sarudi bo mu 1844 banze gukurikira Kristo ngo yinjire Ahera Cyane.

Millerite Adventism chose to return to the religion of Rome, and took up the very doctrinal arguments of those who had just been exposed as false prophets through their rejection of Miller’s message; as their theological masters in order to justify their rejection of the prophetic message of the seven times. Millerite Adventism, as with the disobedient prophet chose their own path, instead of following God’s direction. The path that is chosen by the foolish in all the tests and purges of the wise and foolish virgins from the Protestant reformation onward in prophetic history is the path which returns to the worship of the land that you were delivered from, and as they say, “all roads lead to Rome.” All roads except Jeremiah’s old paths.

Abadivantisimu y’Abamileri yahisemo gusubira mu idini rya Roma, kandi yemera rwose ingingo z’inyigisho z’abari bamaze kugaragazwa ko ari abahanuzi b’ibinyoma binyuze mu kwanga ubutumwa bwa Milleri; ibagira abatware babo mu by’iyobokamana kugira ngo batsindishirize ukwanga kwabo ubutumwa bw’ubuhanuzi bw’ibihe birindwi. Abadivantisimu y’Abamileri, kimwe n’uwo muhanuzi utumviye, yahisemo inzira yayo bwite aho gukurikira kuyoborwa n’Imana. Inzira ihitwamo n’abapfu mu bigeragezo byose no mu kwezwa gutandukanya abanyabwenge n’abapfu mu bakobwa cumi bo mu mateka y’ubuhanuzi, uhereye ku Ivugurura ry’Abaporotesitanti, ni inzira isubira ku gusenga igihugu mwakuwemo, kandi nk’uko babivuga, “inzira zose zijya i Roma.” Inzira zose keretse inzira za kera za Yeremiya.

The Protestant reformation had been typified by Moses’ return to Egypt in order to lead God’s people into the Promised Land. Once out of the land of captivity God purposed to give His chosen people His law. In the line of Moses and the Protestant reformation rebellion was manifested immediately after the deliverance. God tested Sardis, a people who claimed to have a living name, but were dead by the time of the message of William Miller. Two purging’s took place in 1844; the first was the purge of the church of Sardis, who had claimed to be Protestants, but were proven to be dead; and then the Millerite’s were purged in the same year, in fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins.

Ivugurura ry’Abaporotesitanti ryari ryaragereranyijwe n’ugaruka kwa Mose muri Egiputa kugira ngo ayobore ubwoko bw’Imana abujyane mu Gihugu cy’Isezerano. Bamaze kuva mu gihugu cy’ubunyage, Imana yari ifite umugambi wo guha ubwoko bwayo yitoranyirije amategeko yayo. Mu murongo wa Mose n’uw’Ivugurura ry’Abaporotesitanti, ubugome bwo kwigomeka bwagaragaye ako kanya nyuma yo gukizwa. Imana yagerageje Sarudi, ubwoko bwavugaga ko bufite izina rizima, nyamara bwari bwarapfuye igihe ubutumwa bwa William Miller bwageraga. Mu 1844 habayeho kwezwa kubiri; ukwa mbere kwari ukwezwa kw’itorero rya Sarudi, ryari ryarihaye kuvuga ko ari Abaporotesitanti, ariko rigaragazwa ko ryapfuye; hanyuma n’Abamilerite bejejwe muri uwo mwaka nyir’izina, mu isohozwa ry’umugani w’abakobwa cumi.

The Democrats and Republicans represent two political classes that together make up the Republican horn on the earth beast of Revelation thirteen. The wise and foolish virgins are two religious classes that together make up the Protestant horn on the earth beast. The wise virgins possess the first name given at Antioch. The wise virgins are Christians, but they are also Philadelphians who have the promise of receiving a name.

Abademokarate n’Abarepubulikani bahagarariye ibyiciro bibiri bya politiki, kandi byombi hamwe bigize ihembe ry’Abarepubulikani ku nyamaswa yo ku isi ivugwa mu Byahishuwe igice cya cumi na gatatu. Abakobwa b’isugi b’abanyabwenge n’ab’abapfu ni ibyiciro bibiri by’idini, kandi byombi hamwe bigize ihembe ry’Abaporotesitanti ku nyamaswa yo ku isi. Abakobwa b’isugi b’abanyabwenge bafite izina rya mbere ryatangiwe i Antiyokiya. Abakobwa b’isugi b’abanyabwenge ni Abakristo, ariko kandi ni Abafiladelifiya bafite isezerano ryo guhabwa izina.

> Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Revelation 3:12.

> Unesha ni we nzamugira inkingi mu rusengero rw’Imana yanjye, kandi ntazongera kurusohokamo ukundi; kandi nzamwandikaho izina ry’Imana yanjye, n’izina ry’umurwa w’Imana yanjye, ari wo Yerusalemu nshya, umanuka uva mu ijuru ku Mana yanjye: kandi nzamwandikaho izina ryanjye rishya. Ibyahishuwe 3:12.

The first time God named His people Christian was at Antioch, and the history where the Laodicean movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand changes unto the Philadelphian movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is also the history of Antiochus the Great, who the city of Antioch is named after, and who is represented at the end of a 250-year period between the battles of Raphia and Panium.

Ubwa mbere Imana yise ubwoko Bwayo “Abakristo” ni i Antiyokiya, kandi amateka aho urugendo rw’Abanyalawodikiya rw’abihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bane ruhindukira rukaba urugendo rw’Abanyafiladelifiya rw’abihumbi ijana na mirongo ine na bane, ni na yo mateka ya Antiyokusi Mukuru, uwo umujyi wa Antiyokiya witiriwe, kandi ugaragazwa ku iherezo ry’igihe cy’imyaka magana abiri na mirongo itanu hagati y’intambara za Rafia na Paniumi.

We will continue these things in the next article.
