Tiri kufunga nezvemitsara mitanhatu yenhoroondo mukati menhoroondo yeAdventism umo makakatanwa pamusoro pechiratidzo cheRoma ndiwo akanga ari nyaya yacho. Tiri kushandisa nzira yemvura yekupedzisira, inova “mutsara pamusoro pemutsara” kubva pa“pano zvishoma” ne“apo zvishoma.” Takatanga nokuratidza kuti gakava rokutanga pamusoro pechiratidzo cheRoma rinofananidzira gakava riripo zvino, uye naizvozvo rinosimbisa kuti zvino tiri mugakava rokupedzisira nguva yokuedzwa isati yavharwa.

Ubukana bw’iyi ntonganya ya nyuma yerekeye ikimenyetso cya Roma na bwo bugaragazwa n’imirongo ya cumi kugeza kuri cumi na gatandatu yo muri Daniyeli cumi n’umwe, ishushanya amateka ahishwe yo mu murongo wa mirongo ine wa Daniyeli cumi n’umwe. Amateka yo mu murongo wa mirongo ine ageza umunyeshuri w’ubuhanuzi ku mwaka wa 1989 no gusenyuka kw’Ubumwe bw’Abasoviyeti nk’uko bigaragazwa mu murongo wa cumi. Umurongo ukurikiraho, ari wo murongo wa mirongo ine na rimwe, ugaragaza itegeko ryo ku cyumweru rigiye kuza vuba muri Leta Zunze Ubumwe z’Amerika, ushushanywa n’umurongo wa cumi na gatandatu. Guhumekerwa kwera kwagaragaje ko icyari cyarashyizweho ikimenyetso ari “igice cy’igitabo cya Daniyeli cyari gifitanye isano n’iminsi y’imperuka”.

Kubva muna 1989 kusvika kumutemo weSvondo ndicho chikamu chakaiswa chisimbiso chemazuva okupedzisira, uye chinofananidzirwa mundima dzegumi kusvika gumi nenhanhatu. Naizvozvo, kuwedzera kwezivo ndiko kunotungamirira kuvharwa kwemukana wokuyedzwa kwevaSeventh-day Adventist, nokuti mukana wokuyedzwa kweAdventism muUnited States unopera pamutemo weSvondo. Mundima dzegumi kusvika gumi nenhanhatu tinowana ndima yegumi nenhana, iyo inoratidza kuti ndivo “makororo” evanhu vaMwari vanosimbisa chiratidzo.

Naizvozvo, gakava reMillerite rinomiririrwa papurani yemapiyona ya1843 ndiro gakava rekutanga reRoma munhoroondo yeAdventism. Chokwadi chokuti iro gadzirirano rimwe chetero rasvikazve, chinozivisa ani naani anoda kuona kuti Jesu, saArfa naOmega, anogara achiratidza kuguma kubudikidza nekutanga. Gakava riripo zvino ndiro gakava rokupedzisira rinosefa mhandara dzakachenjera nedzisina njere.

Mafungiro akacheneswa ouporofita anodzidzisa kuti zviuru zana nemakumi mana nezvina zvinosvika pakubatana kwakakwana nguva yavo yokuedzwa isati yapera pamurayiro weSvondo uri kuuya nokukurumidza. Moto wokunatsa waMutumwa waSungano waMaraki zvino uri kuchenesa vaRevhi segoridhe nesirivha. Murume weBhurasho reTsvina zvino ari kuchenesa uriri Hwake namashoko echokwadi.

> “‘Ane foshoro ari muruoko rwake, uye achanyatsoparadzanisa uriri hwake, achiunganidzira gorosi rake mudura.’ Mateu 3:12. Iyi yakanga iri imwe yenguva dzokuchenesa. Namashoko echokwadi, hundi yakanga ichiparadzaniswa negorosi. Nokuti vakanga vakanyanyisa kuzvikudza uye kuzviruramisira zvavo kuti vagamuchire kurairwa, vakanyanyisa kuda nyika zvokuti vagamuchire upenyu hwokuzvininipisa, vazhinji vakatsauka kubva kuna Jesu. Vazhinji vachiri kuita chinhu chimwe chete nanhasi. Mweya iri kuedzwa nhasi sezvakaitwa vadzidzi vaya musinagoge reKapenaume. Apo chokwadi chinosvitswa pamwoyo, vanoona kuti upenyu hwavo hahuwirirani nokuda kwaMwari. Vanoona kudiwa kwokushanduka kwakakwana mukati mavo; asi havadi kutora basa iro rokuzviramba. Naizvozvo vanotsamwa apo zvivi zvavo zvinofumurwa. Vanobva vaenda vagumburwa, sezvakaita vadzidzi vakasiya Jesu, vachigunun’una vachiti, ‘Shoko iri rakaoma; ndianiko angarigamuchira?’” The Desire of Ages, 392.

Chokwadi chakuti ndime khumi ndi zisanu ndi chimodzi zoyambirira ndi chiyambi cha ulosi womaliza wa Danieli, ndiponso kuti ndime zimenezo zikugwirizana ndi ndime zisanu ndi chimodzi zotsiriza za chaputalacho, chikusonyeza kuti Alefa ndi Omega akugwiritsa ntchito ndime za pachiyambi kuti akwaniritse kulekanitsa komaliza kwa anzeru ndi oipa, monga momwe zikuimiridwa ndi Danieli m’chaputala 12, kumene kukuchitika tsopano.

Chapupu chechitatu chinopupurira kukomba kwakanyanya kwegakava iri inyaya yokuti kufemerwa, kubudikidza nezvinyorwa zvaSista White, kunotsigira zvakajeka chati yemapiyona ya1843, inomiririra gakava reRoma mundima yegumi nechina. Gakava rokutanga rinomiririra gakava rokupedzisira, uye kubvumidzwa kwakafemerwa kwekunzwisisa kwevaMillerite pamusoro pe“makororo avanhu vako” emundima yegumi nechina, kunoreva kuti kana chokwadi ichocho chenheyo chikarambwa, panguva imwe cheteyo kunenge kuri kurambwa kwesimba reMweya weChiporofita. Zvichienderana nezvapupu zviviri zvakapfuura zvinotsinhira kuti gakava iri rinoitika nguva pfupi pamberi pokunge nguva yomuedzo yapera, pane chokwadi chokuti kunyengera kwokupedzisira, kana kwomugumo, kune avo vanoti vanosimudzira Mweya weChiporofita, ndiko kuramba Mweya weChiporofita.

> “Setaná ari... achitsikirira nguva dzose zvinhu zvenhema—kuti atsause vanhu kubva kuchokwadi. Kunyengera kwaSetaná kwekupedzisira chaiko kuchava kuita kuti uchapupu hwoMweya waMwari hushayiswe simba. ‘Pasina chiratidzo, vanhu vanoparara’ (Zvirevo 29:18). Setaná achashanda nouchenjeri hwokunyengera, nenzira dzakasiyana-siyana uye kubudikidza nemasangano akasiyana-siyana, kuti azunguze kuvimba kwavanhu vaMwari vakasara muuchapupu hwechokwadi.”

> “Pachava noruvengo kuTestimonies uko kuri kwesatani. Mabasa aSatani achava okuzunungusa kutenda kwamakereke madziri, nokuda kwechikonzero ichi: Satani haangavi nenzira yakajeka kudaro yokupinza kunyengera kwake nokusunga mweya mukunyengedzwa kwake kana yambiro nokutsiura nezano zvaMweya waMwari zvichiteererwa.” Selected Messages, bhuku 1, 48.

Kuondolewa nguvu, au kukataliwa kwa mamlaka ya “ushuhuda wa Roho wa Mungu” kupitia maandishi ya Ellen White, ndiko “udanganyifu wa mwisho kabisa wa Shetani.” Dada White aliandika kwamba alionyeshwa kuwa “chati ya 1843 iliongozwa na mkono wa Bwana, wala haikupaswa kubadilishwa.” Fungu lililotangulia linaunganisha moja kwa moja kukataliwa kwa mamlaka ya Roho ya Unabii na njozi ya siku za mwisho, kwa maana manabii wote hunena kwa uwazi zaidi kuhusu siku za mwisho. Kwa hiyo, Danieli anaposema katika aya ya kumi na nne kwamba “wanyang’anyi” wanaithibitisha njozi, ni njozi ya Sulemani ya Mithali 29:18, isemayo kwamba wale wasio na njozi “huangamia,” na neno “huangamia” humaanisha “kufanywa uchi.”

Saka “kuparara” kuri kuratidza kuti avo vanozviti vanotsigira Mweya woUprofita mumazuva okupedzisira, asi vachiramba simba rinomiririrwa mariri, vanova vasina kufuka, uye vanoparara; uku ndiko kutsanangurwa kwevaRaodhikia, avo vari “vanosuwisa, uye vane nhamo, uye varombo, uye mapofu, uye vasina kufuka.” Vanorairwa kutenga “nguo chena, kuti ufukidzwe, uye kuti kunyadziswa kwokusafuka kwako kurege kuonekwa.” Kana vakaramba rairo iyi, vanobudiswa mumuromo waIshe.

Saizvozvo, tinowana humwe uchapupu hunoratidza kuti kushama uku kunoonekwa nguva pfupi kwazvo nguva yokuedzwa isati yavharwa. Pamutemo weSvondo uri kuuya nokukurumidza, mweya idzodzo dzakashama dzichagamuchira mucherechedzo wechikara, sezvadzinokundwa, sezvinomiririrwa mundima makumi mana neimwe yaDanieri gumi nerimwe. Chikonzero chavachakundwa ndechokuti vakaramba masimba eMweya weChiporofita, unotsigira chati yemapiyona ya1843, inomiririra nheyo dzeAdventismu, uye inosanganisira “kiyi” inosimbisa chiratidzo nokuzivisa kuti Roma ndiro simba rinomiririrwa sa“mbavha dzavanhu vako” mundima yechina.

Kundinyaya yedu yakapfuura takaratidza kuti Uriah Smith ndiye akanga ari shasha yekupandukira kwa1863, nokuti ndiye akaunza chati yekunyepedzera ya1863. Chati yaakabudisa muna 1863 yakabvisa “nguva nomwe” dzaRevhitiko 26 mushoko rechiporofita reAdventism yeRaodhikia, nokudaro ichiratidza kutanga kwekuputswa zvishoma nezvishoma kwenheyo, uyewo kutanga kwekuvakwa kwenheyo yekunyepedzera yeAdventist yeRaodhikia, yakavakwa pamusoro pejecha. Gare gare munhoroondo yeAdvent, dudziro yake yepachivande pamusoro pamambo wokumusoro yakabereka zvibereko zvemuenzaniso wake wechiporofita apo vanhu vakatiza kereke.

> Chenjererai vaporofita venhema, vanouya kwamuri vakapfeka sembatya dzemakwai, asi mukati mavo imhumhi dzinoparadza. Muchavaziva nezvibereko zvavo. Ko vanhu vanokohwa mazambiringa paminzwa here, kana maonde parukato here? Saizvozvowo muti wose wakanaka unobereka zvibereko zvakanaka; asi muti wakaora unobereka zvibereko zvakaipa. Muti wakanaka haungabereki zvibereko zvakaipa, uye muti wakaora haungabereki zvibereko zvakanaka. Muti mumwe nomumwe usingabereki zvibereko zvakanaka unotemwa, ukandwa mumoto. Naizvozvo muchavaziva nezvibereko zvavo. Haasi munhu wose anoti kwandiri, Ishe, Ishe, achapinda muumambo hwokudenga; asi ndiye anoita kuda kwaBaba vangu vari kudenga. Vazhinji vachati kwandiri nezuva iro, Ishe, Ishe, hatina kuprofita muzita renyu here? uye muzita renyu hatina kudzinga madhimoni here? uye muzita renyu hatina kuita mabasa mazhinji anoshamisa here?

Naizvozvo ani naani anonzwa mashoko angu aya, akaaita, ndichamufananidza nomunhu akachenjera, wakavaka imba yake pamusoro pedombo: mvura ikanaya, mafashamo akauya, mhepo dzikavhuvhuta, dzikarova imba iyo; asi haina kuwira pasi, nokuti yakanga yakateyiwa pamusoro pedombo. Uye munhu wose anonzwa mashoko angu aya, asingaaiti, achafananidzwa nomunhu benzi, wakavaka imba yake pamusoro pejecha: mvura ikanaya, mafashamo akauya, mhepo dzikavhuvhuta, dzikarova imba iyo; ikawa; uye kuwa kwayo kwakanga kukuru. Mateo 7:15–27.

Ubuja ku buyobozi bw’Abadiventisiti b’Umunsi wa Karindwi b’i Laodikiya bwarengagijwe mu 1989, nk’uko byabaye koko ku buyobozi bw’itorero ry’Abayuda igihe Kristo yavukaga.

> “Varume havazvizivi, asi mashoko aya anozadza denga nomufaro. Nokufarira kwakadzama uye kunyorovera zvikuru, zvisikwa zvitsvene zvinobva munyika yechiedza zvinokweverwa panyika.

Ixesha lokuphela emgqeni kaKristu lalingukuzalwa kwaKhe, yaye ngelo xesha umyalezo owawuza kuvavanya eso sizukulwana wavulwa. U-1989 wayelixesha lokuphela kubagqatswa ababizelwe ukuba babe phakathi kwekhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka. Umzekelo wesiprofeto ka-Uriah Smith wazala iinyaniso ezisisiseko ezimelwe kwitshathi ka-1843. Ezo nyaniso zazi “liLitye.”

> “चेतावनी आ चुकी है: ऐसी किसी भी बात को भीतर आने देने की अनुमति नहीं दी जानी है जो उस विश्वास की नींव को विचलित करे, जिस पर हम 1842, 1843, और 1844 में यह संदेश आने के समय से ही निर्माण करते आए हैं। मैं इस संदेश में थी, और तब से लेकर आज तक मैं संसार के सामने उस ज्योति के प्रति सच्ची ठहरी हूँ जो परमेश्वर ने हमें दी है। हमारा यह कोई विचार नहीं कि हम उस मंच से अपने पांव हटा लें, जिस पर वे रखे गए थे, जबकि हम दिन-प्रतिदिन गम्भीर प्रार्थना के साथ प्रभु को खोजते हुए, ज्योति की तलाश करते रहे। क्या तुम समझते हो कि मैं उस ज्योति को छोड़ सकती हूँ जो परमेश्वर ने मुझे दी है? वह युगों की चट्टान के समान है। जब से वह मुझे दी गई, तब से वही मेरा मार्गदर्शन करती रही है।” Review and Herald, April 14, 1903.

Pa Gunyana 11, 2001, mvura yokupedzisira yakatanga kusasa apo mhepo dzinomiririra ChiIslam cheNhamo yechitatu dzakasunungurwa, uye Patriot Act yakaratidza shanduko kubva kumutemo weChirungu kuenda kumutemo weRoma, zvichizivisa nenzira yechiporofita kuti mafashamo esimba repapa akanga atanga kuyerera. Nzira yokupedzisira yokuedzwa kweimba yeAdventism yeRaodhikia yakatanga, uye “mvura ikanaya, nemafashamo akauya, nemhepo dzikavhuvhuta, dzikarova imba iyo; ikawa; kuwa kwayo kukava kukuru.”

Ujumbe ambao malaika mwenye nguvu alitangaza wakati huo ulitambulisha kwamba mataifa yote yalikuwa yamekunywa divai ya Babeli, na mbinu bandia ya Roma ya kipapa na Uprotestanti ulioasi ambayo ilikuwa imekuwa ikikubaliwa hatua kwa hatua tangu uasi wa mwaka 1863, inawakilishwa na divai (mafundo) ya Babeli.
