> “Ngomutemo unosimbisa kugadzwa kwehupapa uchityora mutemo waMwari, rudzi rwedu ruchazvibvisa zvizere pakururama. Apo chiPurotesitendi chichatambanudza ruoko rwacho kuyambuka mukaha kuti chibate ruoko rwesimba reRoma, apo chichasvika pamusoro pegomba rakadzika kuti chibatisise maoko nechidzimu, apo, pasi pesimba remubatanidzwa uyu une mativi matatu, nyika yedu icharamba nheyo imwe neimwe yeBumbiro rayo sehurumende yechiPurotesitendi neyechirepabhuriki, uye ichagadzira nzira yekuparadzirwa kwenhema nokunyengera kwehupapa, ipapo tichaziva kuti nguva yasvika yokushanda kunoshamisa kwaSatani uye kuti magumo ava pedyo.”

> “Sokungeza ukusondela kwamabutho amaRoma kwakuyisibonakaliso kubafundi sokubhujiswa kweJerusalema okwakusondela, kanjalo nalokhu ukuhlubuka kungaba yisibonakaliso kithi sokuthi umkhawulo wokubekezela kukaNkulunkulu usufinyelelwe, ukuthi isilinganiso sobubi besizwe sakithi sigcwele, nokuthi ingelosi yesihe isizondiza isuke, ingaphinde ibuye. Abantu bakaNkulunkulu bayobe sebecwiliswe kulezo zigameko zokuhlupheka nokucindezeleka abaprofethi abazichaza njengesikhathi sosizi lukaJakobe. Ukukhala kwabathembekileyo, abashushiswayo, kuyenyukela ezulwini. Futhi njengoba igazi lika-Abela lakhala lisemhlabathini, kukhona namazwi akhalela kuNkulunkulu evela emathuneni abafela ukholo, emangcwabeni olwandle, emigedeni yezintaba, ezindlini ezingaphansi zezindela: ‘Koze kube nini, Nkosi, engcwele neyiqiniso, ungahluleli futhi ungaphindiseli igazi lethu kulabo abahlala emhlabeni na?’”

> “Ishe ariko akora umurimo We. Ijuru ryose rirahagurukiye ibintu. Umucamanza w’isi yose vuba aha agiye guhaguruka ahamirize ubutware Bwe bwatutswe. Ikimenyetso cy’ugukizwa kizashyirwa ku bagabo bakomeza amategeko y’Imana, bubaha amategeko Yayo, kandi banga ikimenyetso cy’inyamaswa cyangwa icy’igishushanyo cyayo.

> “Mwari akazarura zvichaitika mumazuva okupedzisira, kuti vanhu Vake vagadzirirwe kumira vachipikisana nedutu rokushorwa nehasha. Avo vakayambirwa pamusoro pezviitiko zviri mberi kwavo havafaniri kugara vakanyarara vachimirira dutu riri kuuya, vachizvinyaradza kuti Ishe vachadzivirira vakatendeka Vavo pazuva rokutambudzika. Tinofanira kuva savanhu vakamirira Ishe wavo, kwete mukutarisira kusina basa, asi mubasa rinoramba richiitwa nomwoyo wose, nokutenda kusingazununguki. Ino haisi nguva yokurega pfungwa dzedu dzakabatikana nezvinhu zvisina kunyanya kukosha. Vanhu pavanenge vakarara, Satani ari kushanda nesimba kuronga zvinhu kuitira kuti vanhu vaIshe varege kuwanirwa tsitsi kana kururamisira. Sangano reSvondo rava kufambira mberi murima. Vatungamiri varo vari kuvanza nyaya chaiyo iri pakukakavadzana, uye vazhinji vanobatana nesangano iri pachavo havaoni kwariri kuyerera kwepasi kuri kutungamirira. Zvarinoreva zvinotapira uye zvinooneka sezvechiKristu, asi kana richinge rataura richaratidza mweya weshato. Ibasa redu kuita zvose zvatinogona kuti tidzivise njodzi iri kutyisidzirwa. Tinofanira kuedza kubvisa rusaruro nokuzviisa pachiedza chakafanira pamberi pavanhu. Tinofanira kuisa pamberi pavo mubvunzo chaiwo uri pakukakavadzana, saizvozvo tichipa kupikisa kunoshanda zvikuru pamusoro pematanho okudzivisa rusununguko rwehana. Tinofanira kutsvakisisa Magwaro uye tikwanise kupa chikonzero chokutenda kwedu. Muporofita anoti: ‘Vakaipa vachaita zvakaipa; uye hakuna kana mumwe wavakaipa achanzwisisa; asi vakachenjera vachanzwisisa.’” Testimonies, vhoriyamu 5, 451, 452.

Cindi “Sunday movement” “chikayowoya, chikaonetsa mzimu wa chinjoka.” Ndime zinayi zikuzindikiritsa kuti pa lamulo la Sabata United States “idzilekanitsa yokha kwathunthu ndi chilungamo.” Pa lamulo la Sabata “nthawi yafika ya ntchito zodabwitsa za Satana.” Pa lamulo la Sabata mgwirizano wa magulu atatuwo ukwaniritsidwa. Pa lamulo la Sabata United States “imakana mfundo iliyonse ya Constitution yake monga boma la chiProtestanti la republic”, ndipo “imaperekanso njira yofalitsira mabodza ndi zinyengo za upapa.” Lamulo la Sabata limenelo ndi “chizindikiro kwa ife chakuti malire a kupirira kwa Mulungu afikiridwa, kuti muyeso wa mphulupulu ya mtundu wathu wadzaza, ndi kuti mngelo wa chifundo ali pafupi kuwuluka kuchoka, osabweranso konse.” Chizindikiro chimenecho chinayimiridwa mwa chenjezo loperekedwa ndi Yesu lozindikiritsa chonyansa cha chiwonongeko chonenedwa ndi Danieli mneneri. Pamenepo ndiponso pemphero loperekedwa ndi ofera chikhulupiriro a chisindikizo chachisanu lakuti, “Kufikira liti, Ambuye, woyera ndi wowona, simukuweruza ndi kubwezera mwazi wathu pa iwo akukhala pa dziko lapansi?” likukwaniritsidwa. Ndiponso pa chizindikiro chimenecho namwali opusa ndi anzeru amaonetsa makhalidwe awo.

PaMutemo weSabata, United States “inoramba hwaro hwese hweBumbiro rayo.” Nguva iyo basa iri rakapedziswa yakatanga nePatriot Act muna 2001. Kubva muna 2001 kusvika paMutemo weSabata zvinomirira basa rinofambira mberi rekuramba Bumbiro. Basa iroro rinofambira mberi rinowirirana nemutsara wechiporofita umo kuumbwa kwemufananidzo wechikara kunopedziswa. Mutsara wemufananidzo wechikara ungangoonekwa seune kuoma kuduku, asi kuoma kwacho kwakafanira kunzwisiswa. Chinounza kuoma pamutsara wemufananidzo wechikara ndechekuti unomirira mitsara miviri.

Pachikara chepasi mhuka ine nyanga mbiri, mitsara miviri iyoyo ndiyo nyanga dzeRepublicanism neProtestantism. Nyanga mbiri idzodzo dzinobatana muukama hwekereke nehurumende, uye nokudaro dzinozadza kuumbwa kwemufananidzo wechikara. Saka mutsetse wokuumbwa kwemufananidzo wechikara une mitsara miviri mukati memutsetse mumwe chete, nokuti nyanga dzeRepublican neProtestant dzinofambirana pamwe chete munhoroondo, asiwo mitsara yadzo yega-yega ine uchapupu hwayo hwechiporofita hwainofanira kutakura. Mutsetse mumwe wechiporofita, une zvidzidzo zviviri zvinofambirana pamwe chete, wakaoma kupfuura kungoratidza zviratidzo zvenguva zvezviito zvematongerwo enyika zvinomiririra kutaura kunobatanidzwa neBumbiro reMitemo.

Mitsetse miviri yenyanga dzeRepublican nezePurotesitendi inowedzerwazve kuoma nechokwadi chechiporofita chokuti mukati menyanga yeRepublican mune nhoroondo yokurwisana pakati pevaDemocrat vaifarira uranda, nevaRepublican vaipikisa uranda; uyezve kuti mukati menyanga yePurotesitendi mune nzira inopfuurira yokuedzwa inotevera vakadzi vakachenjera navakapusa mukati menhoroondo yenyanga yePurotesitendi. Kunyange zvakadaro, zvinokosha zvikuru kuti tigadzikane muzvokwadi izvi.

Mukati memutsara unomiririrwa nenyanga mbiri dzechikara chepanyika mune mufananidzo unofambirana wokuti munhu angaumba unhu hwaKristu kana unhu hwaSatani, izvo zvinoenzana nokuti angaumba mufananidzo waKristu kana mufananidzo wechikara; nokuti muchirevo ichi “chikara” chinomiririra chisikwa chakasikwa chichipesana noMusiki. Kuumbwa kwehunhu uhwu kunoitwa mukati pakati pavanhu vose, nokuti nguva yokuedzwa painopera kunongova namapoka maviri chete. Kuumbwa uku kunoitwawo kunze, kubudikidza nomubatanidzwa uri pakati pesimba roupapa neUnited Nations.

Na, nguva yokuedzwa yokuvumbwa komufananidzo wechikara yakatanga muna 2001, uye inoguma pamutemo weSvondo muUnited States. Mukati menguva iyoyo, nhoroondo youprofita yenyanga mbiri dzechikara chenyika inoratidza kupokana kwomukati nokwokunze mukati menyanga dzadzo dzakasiyana-siyana, kungava kwechitendero kana kwezvematongerwo enyika, uyewo kurwisana pakati penyanga mbiri dzacho pachadzo.

Mutemo wa zuva reSvondo muUnited States unomirira yambiro yokutiza iyo Jesu akaratidza se“chinonyangadza chinoparadza.” Mutemo wezuva reSvondo muUnited States ndiwo mhedziso yenguva yakatanga muna 2001. Patriot Act ndiyo “chinonyangadza chinoparadza chakataurwa naDanieri”, uye yakaratidzwa naJesu sechiratidzo chokutiza kubva mukuparadzwa kuri kuuya.

Mutemo wePatriot unosanganisira chiedza chechiporofita cha1888, pamwe neBlair Bill. Naizvozvo, Mutemo wePatriotwo zvakare, muchiporofita, une chiratidzo chemufananidzo wemutemo weSvondo; saka nguva inotangira muna 2001 inotanga nemutemo weSvondo sezvawakatifananidzirwa na1888—Blair Bill, 2001—Patriot Act, uye inopera nemutemo weSvondo.

Yambiro yokuti vatize mumaguta muna 2001 inomiririra, muchimiro chechiporofita, yambiro yokutiza kubva muBhabhironi panguva yomurayiro weSvondo. Kutongwa kunouyiswa pamusoro peUnited States panguva yomurayiro weSvondo kunomiririra kutongwa kuchauyiswa pamusoro penyika yose apo Mikaeri achasimuka uye nguva yokupiwa vanhu mukana wokuedzwa ichavharwa. Chisimbiso chaKristu seArfa naOmega chinoramba chichimiririrwa mukati mezvokwadi dzinomiririrwa neBlair Bill muna 1888, uye nezvose zvinomiririrwa na1888, zvichidzokororwa muna 2001.

2001, iyo yakafananidzirwa na1888, inomiririra kwete chete chiratidzo chokutiza sezvinomiririrwa nechinonyangadza chinoparadza, asi yakamomiririrwawo na66 AD uye nokukombwa kwaCestius. Kukombwa kwaTitus muna 70 AD kunomiririra mutemo weSvondo muUnited States. Mutemo weSvondo muUnited States unomiririrwa negore ra321 uye nomutemo wokutanga weSvondo waConstantine, uye 538 inomiririra nguva iyo rudzi rwokupedzisira rwenyika runokundwa nechiratidzo chechikara.

2001 ndi 1888, Cestius ndi chaka cha 66 AD. Lamulo la Lamlungu ndi Tito ndi zaka za 70 ndi 321. 2001 lilinso ubatizo wa Yesu, ndi kutsika kwake mu Chivumbulutso chaputala 10 pa Ogasiti 11, 1840. Zizindikiro zonsezi zimathandizira pa mzere wa Constitution.

Nhoroondo yechiporofita yeUnited States inofambirana nenhoroondo yeAdventism. Muna 1798 upapa hwakagamuchira ronda rwahwo runouraya, uye 1798 ndiyo yaiva nguva yokuguma apo chikamu chezviporofita zvaDanieri chaiva nechokuita nenhoroondo yengirozi yokutanga neyengirozi yechipiri yaZvakazarurwa gumi nechina chakazarurwa. Ipapo muna 1798 ndipo panoratidzwa kutanga kwechiporofita kweAdventism, uye muna 1798 chikara chepanyika chine nyanga dzakafanana nedzegwayana chakava umambo hwechitanhatu hwechiporofita cheBhaibheri.

1798 yakatangirwa nezviratidzo zvitatu zvechiporofita zvine chokuita nemutsara wechikara chepanyika, uye naizvozvo nekutaura kweUnited States, pamwe chete neBumbiro reMitemo reUnited States. Zviratidzo zvitatu izvozvo zvaiva Declaration of Independence, yakataurwa muna 1776, zvichiteverwa neBumbiro reMitemo muna 1789, uyezve Alien and Sedition Acts ya1798.

Mapfundo matatu hayo yanahusu mstari wa kinabii wa Katiba na yanaashiria mwanzo wa ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia. Sheria ya Jumapili ndiyo mwisho wa utawala wa ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia, na kwa hiyo, kwa ulazima wa kinabii, lazima kuwepo mapfundo matatu ya kinabii yanayotangulia mwisho huo, kama yalivyowakilishwa kwa mfano na mapfundo matatu yaliyotangulia mwanzo wake.

Muna 2001, pakuwira kweshongwe, Patriot Act inofananidzirwa neBlair Bill ya1888, pamwe chete nokumukira kwakajeka kwehutungamiri hweAdventism paMinneapolis General Conference. Kumukira uko mutumwa akaudza Sista White kuti kwaifananidzirwa nokumukira kwaKora, Dhatani naAbhiramu pamusoro paMozisi, kunofananidzwawo norubhabhatidzo rwaKristu muna AD 27, kudziviswa kweIslam musi wa11 Nyamavhuvhu 1840, neDeclaration of Independence muna 1776, pamwe chete ne“chinyangadzo chokuparadza, chakataurwa naDhanieri muporofita” sechiratidzo chokutiza hasha dziri kuuya, sezvinomiririrwa naCestius uye AD 66.

Kana uchiri kukwanisa kurangarira kuti mutsetse wechiporofita watiri kufunga zvino ndiwo mutsetse weBumbiro reMitemo reUnited States, mitsetse yose yechiporofita yambotaurwa inobatsira uye inosimbisa dingindira rechiporofita rinomiririrwa nemutsetse weBumbiro reMitemo. Asi mutsetse unoratidzika kuva ndiwo wakanyanya kubatana nemimwe ndiwo mutsetse wekuumbwa kwemufananidzo wechikara. Mufananidzo wechikara mufananidzo wechikara chehupapa, chinomiririrwa sechikara chine mukadzi anotonga pamusoro pacho, zvinova kubatanidzwa kwechechi nehurumende, chechi iri iyo inodzora ukama ihwohwo. Kuti United States iumbe mufananidzo kuchikara, Chipurotesitendi chakatsauka chinofanira kutonga hurumende zvakadaro kusvikira padanho rokuti hurumende ichapasa uye ichamanikidzira mitemo yechitendero, uye pakupedzisira mutemo weSvondo.

Sezvo mashandiro okuumba mufananidzo wechikara achizadzikiswa, Bumbiro reMitemo, rakanyorwa rine nheyo huru yakanyorwa naThomas Jefferson se“kuparadzaniswa kwechechi nehurumende,” rinofanira kupidigurwa. Kana runyanga rwechiPurotesitendi rwava nesimba rokutungamirira runyanga rwechiRipabhuriki kuti rwusimbise mirairo yechitendero, moyo chaiwo weBumbiro reMitemo unobvarurwa; nokudaro munoonekwa ukama hwechiporofita pakati pemutsetse weBumbiro reMitemo nomutsetse womufananidzo wechikara.

Nguva iyo mufananidzo wechikara unoumbwa yakatanga muna 2001, nePatriot Act, uye inoguma pamutemo weSvondo, apo chiratidzo chechikara chinosimbikidzwa. Munguva iyoyo mvura yekupedzisira inosaswa, nokuti mvura yekupedzisira inotanga kunaya apo mutumwa ane simba waZvakazarurwa gumi nesere anoburuka uye anovhenekera nyika nokubwinya Kwake, izvo, maererano naHanzvadzi White, zvaizoitika apo zvivako zvikuru zveGuta reNew York zvaizowisirwa pasi nokubata kwaShe.

> “Mvua ya mwisho itanyesha juu ya watu wa Mungu. Malaika mwenye nguvu atashuka kutoka mbinguni, na dunia yote itaangazwa kwa utukufu wake.” Review and Herald, Aprili 21, 1891.

Nthawi ya kuwazidwa kwa mvula ya masika omaliza ikuimira nthawi imene tirigu ndi namsongole a m’badwo womaliza wa Chiadventisti akusefedwa ndi kuyeretsedwa.

Muna 2001 kuedzwa kwechechi yeLaodicea yeSeventh-day Adventist kwakatanga, sezvakaratidzwa nemufananidzo wevaPurotesitendi wa11 Nyamavhuvhu 1840, uye neIsraeri yekare panguva iyo Kristu akabhabhatidzwa.

Muedzo wokupedzisira wevanhu vesungano yekare unotanga apo chiedza chemutumwa waZvakazarurwa gumi nesere chinotanga kuparidza shoko rake. Shoko rake rinomirirwawo mundima nhatu dzokutanga dzechitsauko chegumi nesere chaZvakazarurwa, uye ndima nhatu idzodzo, maererano naSista White, dzakazadzikiswa apo zvivako zvikuru zveGuta reNew York zvakawira pasi.

Ipapo ni hatangira igikorwa cyo kugeragezwa, nk’uko gihagarariwe na Yohana mu gice cya cumi cy’Ibyahishuwe.

Mafuta ya dhahabu yanawakilisha neema ambayo kwa hiyo Mungu huendelea kuyapatia taa za waamini, ili zisididimie na kuzimika.

Ujumbe wa mvua ya masika ya mwisho unatambuliwa kwa mbinu ya mstari juu ya mstari kama ilivyowekwa katika Isaya sura ya ishirini na nane.
