> And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:1–17.

> Calaamo kale ayaa samada ka muuqatay; oo bal eeg, masduulaagii weynaa oo casaa, oo lahaa toddoba madax iyo toban gees, iyo toddoba taaj oo madaxyadiisa saarnaa. Oo dabadiisii waxay jiidday saddex meelood meel xiddigihii samada, oo dhulka ku tuurtay; masduulaagiina wuxuu hor istaagay naagtii umuli lahayd, si uu ilmaheeda u liqo isla marka uu dhasho. Oo iyadu waxay dhashay ilmo lab ah, kaas oo quruumaha oo dhan ku xukumi doona ul bir ah; ilmihiina waxaa loo qaaday xagga Ilaah iyo carshigiisa. Naagtiina waxay u carartay cidlada, meeshaas oo ay ku leedahay meel Ilaah u diyaariyey, si halkaas loogu quudiyo kun iyo laba boqol iyo lixdan maalmood. Oo dagaal baa samada ka dhacay: Miikaa'iil iyo malaa'igihiisii waxay la dirireen masduulaagii; masduulaagiina wuu dagaallamay, isaga iyo malaa'igihiisiiba, laakiinse ma ay adkaan; meeshoodiina mar dambe samada lagama helin. Markaasaa masduulaagii weynaa dibadda loo tuuray, kaas oo ah abeesadii hore, oo la yidhaahdo Ibliiska iyo Shayddaan, kan dunida oo dhan khiyaaneeya; isaga waxaa lagu tuuray dhulka, malaa'igihiisiina isaga ayaa lala tuuray. Oo waxaan maqlay cod weyn oo samada ka leh, Haatan waxaa yimid badbaadada, iyo xoogga, iyo boqortooyada Ilaaheenna, iyo amarka Masiixiisa; waayo, kii eedayn jiray walaalaheen waa la soo tuuray, kaas oo habeen iyo maalinba Ilaaheenna hortiisa ku eedayn jiray. Oo iyaguna waxay isaga kaga adkaadeen dhiigga Wanka iyo erayga maraggooda; naftoodana ma ay jeclaan ilaa dhimasho. Sidaas daraaddeed ku reyreeya, samooyinkow, iyo kuwiinna dhex degganow. Waxaa hoog ku sugnaaday kuwa dhulka iyo badda deggan! waayo, Ibliisku wuxuu idiinku soo degay cadho weyn isagoo leh, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu og yahay inuu haysto wakhti yar oo keliya. Oo markii masduulaagii arkay in dhulka lagu tuuray, wuxuu silciyey naagtii dhashay ilmaha labka ah. Naagtiina waxaa la siiyey laba baal oo gorgor weyn ah, si ay ugu duusho cidlada, meesheeda, halkaas oo lagu quudiyo wakhti, iyo wakhtiyo, iyo wakhtiga badhkiis, iyadoo laga fogeeyey wejiga abeesada. Abeesadiina afkeeda ayay ka soo tuftay biyo sida daad ah oo naagta ka daba yimid, si ay daadku u qaado. Laakiinse dhulkii ayaa naagtii caawiyey, oo dhulkii afkiisii kala qaaday, oo liqay daadkii masduulaagii afkiisa ka soo tufay. Markaasaa masduulaagii naagtii u cadhooday, oo tegey inuu la diriro hadhay faraceeda, kuwaas oo xajiya amarrada Ilaah oo haysta markhaatifurka Ciise Masiix. Muujintii 12:1–17.

The first battle in the great controversy between Christ and Satan, began in the third heaven with Lucifer’s rebellion, and that first battle typifies the last battle in the first heaven. There is more warfare, for at the end of the thousand-year millennium, Satan is loosed for a little season, and mounts an attack against Jerusalem, but that battle has no possibility of victory. The battle in the third heaven at the beginning, which represents the battle in the first heaven at the end, was carried out while probation was open.

Dagaalkii ugu horreeyey ee muranka weyn ee u dhexeeya Masiixa iyo Shayddaanka wuxuu ka billowday samada saddexaad markii Luusifer kacdoon sameeyey, dagaalkaas ugu horreeyeyna wuxuu astaan u yahay dagaalka ugu dambeeya ee ka dhaca samada kowaad. Dagaallo kale way jiraan, waayo dhammaadka kunka sannadood ee mileniyamka, Shayddaanka waa la sii daayaa in yar oo xilli ah, wuxuuna soo qaadaa weerar ka dhan ah Yeruusaalem, hase ahaatee dagaalkaas wax suurtagal ah oo guul ahi kuma jirto. Dagaalkii ka dhacay samada saddexaad bilowgii, kaas oo metelaya dagaalka ka dhici doona samada kowaad dhammaadka, waxaa la fuliyey iyadoo wakhtiga imtixaanku weli furan yahay.

The “woman” that is pregnant with child, represents God’s church throughout history, and in the history of Christ she was about to give birth to the man child Jesus. In the last days, she gives birth to twins. Just before the Sunday law she births the one hundred and forty-four thousand, of Revelation seven, and at the Sunday law she begins the travail of birthing the great multitude of Revelation seven. Her twins are not identical, but they are twins, and the first born is Elijah and the younger son is Moses.

“Naagta” uurka leh waxay matalaysaa kaniisadda Ilaah taariikhda oo dhan, oo taariikhda Masiix gudaheeda waxay qarka u saarnayd inay dhasho ilmaha labka ah ee Ciise. Maalmaha ugu dambeeya, waxay dhashaa mataano. Wax yar ka hor sharciga Axadda, waxay dhashaa boqol iyo afartan iyo afarta kun ee Muujintii toddobaad, halka sharciga Axaddana ay ka bilowdo foosha ay ku dhalayso dadkii faraha badnaa ee Muujintii toddobaad. Mataanadeedu isku eg ma aha, laakiin waa mataano, oo curadka waa Eliyaas, wiilka ka yarna waa Muuse.

In the beginning of spiritual Israel, the dragon of pagan Rome was waiting to devour the man child Jesus, and the dragon of modern Rome is now waiting to devour the man child of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. As pagan Rome persecuted the early Christian church, modern Rome will repeat the persecution during the Sunday law crisis. In the early Christian church, the woman fled into the wilderness for twelve hundred and sixty literal years, and the persecution of the Sunday law crisis is symbolized by the forty-two months of Revelation thirteen and verse five. In the wilderness God’s people have a place prepared for them where they are fed and nourished.

Bilowgii Israa’iilkii ruuxiga ahaa, masduulaagii Roomaankii jaahiliga ahaa wuxuu sugayay inuu liqo ilmaha labka ah ee Ciise; oo hadda masduulaagii Roomaanka casriga ahi wuxuu sugayaa inuu liqo ilmaha labka ah ee boqol iyo afar iyo afartan kun. Sida Roomaankii jaahiliga ahaa u silciyey kaniisaddii Masiixiyiinta ee hore, ayay Roomaanka casriga ahi u soo celin doontaa silcinta inta lagu jiro qalalaasaha sharciga Axadda. Kaniisaddii Masiixiyiinta ee hore, naagtu waxay u carartay cidlada muddo kun iyo laba boqol iyo lixdan sannadood oo dhab ah; oo silcinta qalalaasaha sharciga Axadda waxaa calaamad u ah afartan iyo laba bilood ee Muujintii saddex iyo toban, aayadda shanaad. Cidlada dhexdeeda dadka Ilaah waxay leeyihiin meel loo diyaariyey iyaga, halkaas oo lagu quudiyo laguna nafaqeeyo.

In Revelation chapter eight, and verse thirteen, the last three trumpets are identified as three woes. The woes in Revelation represent the trumpet judgments of Islam against the powers that pass Sunday laws. In the warfare that is illustrated in chapter twelve, the role of Islam is identified when it states, “Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.” The persecution that Jezebel accomplishes through her apostate husband Ahab, is directed at the “earth” beast and the “sea” beast.

Muujintii cutubka siddeedaad, aayadda saddex iyo tobnaad, saddexdii buun ee ugu dambaysay waxaa lagu aqoonsaday inay yihiin saddex hoog. Hoogagga ku xusan Muujintii waxay ka dhigan yihiin xukummada buunnada ee Islaamka ee ka dhan ah quwadaha meel mariya sharciyada Axadda. Dagaalka lagu sawiray cutubka laba iyo tobnaad, doorka Islaamka waxaa lagu aqoonsaday marka la yidhaahdo, “Waxaa hoog leh kuwa dhulka deggan iyo kuwa baddaba! waayo, Ibliisku wuxuu idiinku soo degay isagoo leh cadho weyn, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu og yahay inuu wakhti yar oo keliya haysto.” Silcinta ay Yesebeel ku fuliso ninkeeda riddada ah ee Axaab dhexdiisa, waxay ku jeeddaa bahalka “dhulka” iyo bahalka “badda”.

The movement of the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen, as with every reform movement, has four primary waymarks that lead to and include the judgment. For the movement of the first angel, those four waymarks were August 11, 1840, the first disappointment in the Spring of 1843, the arrival of the message of the Midnight Cry August 12 through 17 in 1844, and the opening of the judgment on October 22, 1844. Each of those four waymarks possessed the same overlying theme of “time.” August 11, 1840, was a fulfillment of the time prophecy of Revelation chapter nine, and verse fifteen. The first disappointment of 1843, represented a failed prediction of time. The Midnight Cry message was the correction of the previously failed prediction of time, and October 22, 1844, was the fulfillment of the predicted time of the message of the Midnight Cry.

Dhaqdhaqaaqa malaa’igta xoogga badan ee Muujintii siddeed iyo tobnaad, sida dhaqdhaqaaq kasta oo dib-u-habayn ah, waxay leedahay afar calaamadood oo waaweyn oo horseeda xukunka oo ay ku jirto xukunkuna. Dhaqdhaqaaqa malaa’igtii koowaad, afartaas calaamadood waxay ahaayeen Agoosto 11, 1840, niyad-jabkii ugu horreeyey ee Gu’gii 1843, imaatinka farriinta Qaylada Saqda Dhexe Agoosto 12 ilaa 17 ee sannadkii 1844, iyo furitaankii xukunka Oktoobar 22, 1844. Mid kasta oo ka mid ah afartaas calaamadood waxa dul saarnaa mawduuc isku mid ah oo ah “waqti.” Agoosto 11, 1840, waxay ahayd rumoobidda waxsii sheegidda wakhtiga ee Muujintii cutubka sagaalaad, aayadda shan iyo tobnaad. Niyad-jabkii ugu horreeyey ee 1843 waxa uu matalayey saadaal waqtiyeed fashilantay. Farriinta Qaylada Saqda Dhexe waxay ahayd sixidda saadaashii wakhtiga ee hore u fashilantay, Oktoobar 22, 1844-na wuxuu ahaa rumoobidda waqtigii la sii sheegay ee farriinta Qaylada Saqda Dhexe.

The movement of the third angel has those same four waymarks, for they exist in every reform line, and as with all of those four waymarks of every reform line, each waymark possesses the same prophetic theme. Islam of the third woe, is the theme of the four waymarks in the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. On September 11, 2001 Islam of the third woe was released and then restrained. The failed prediction of July 18, 2020 identified an Islamic attack upon Nashville, Tennessee, and represented Islam of the third woe. The message that awakens the dead dry bones that are in the street of Revelation eleven, is the perfect and final fulfillment of the Midnight Cry message, and it represents a correction of the Nashville prediction (without the element of time). It will be fulfilled at the fourth waymark, which is the Sunday law, where Islam of the third woe will strike the United States because of its enforcement of the soon-coming Sunday law.

Dhaqdhaqaaqa malaa’igta saddexaad waxay leedahay isla afartaas calaamadood ee jidka, waayo waxay ku jiraan khad kasta oo dib-u-habayn ah; oo sida ay tahay afartaas calaamadood ee jidka ee khad kasta oo dib-u-habayn ah, calaamad kasta oo jidkuna waxay xambaarsan tahay isla mawduuca nebiyadeed. Islaamka hoogga saddexaad waa mawduuca afarta calaamadood ee jidka ee dhaqdhaqaaqa boqolka iyo afartan iyo afarta kun. Sebtembar 11, 2001, Islaamka hoogga saddexaad waa la sii daayay dabadeedna waa la xannibay. Saadaashii fashilantay ee Luulyo 18, 2020 waxay tilmaantay weerar Islaami ah oo ka dhici lahaa Nashville, Tennessee, waxayna metelaysay Islaamka hoogga saddexaad. Farriinta toosisa lafaha engegan ee meydka ah ee yaal waddada Muujintii kow iyo tobnaad, waa dhammaystirka qumman oo kama dambaysta ah ee farriinta Qaylada Habeenbadhka, waxayna ka dhigan tahay sixid lagu sameeyay saadaashii Nashville (iyadoo aan lahayn curiyaha waqtiga). Waxay ku rumoobi doontaa calaamadda afraad ee jidka, taas oo ah sharciga Axadda, halkaas oo Islaamka hoogga saddexaad ku dhufan doono Maraykanka sababta oo ah dhaqan-gelintiisa sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan imanaya.

When this truth is recognized, in conjunction with the fact that the mighty movement of the third angel is a warning of impending judgment, the Islamic judgment represented by the third woe can be easily understood as the “woe” that is brought upon “earth” and “sea.”

Marka runtaan la garto, iyadoo lala xiriirinayo xaqiiqda ah in dhaqdhaqaaqa xoogga badan ee malaa’igta saddexaad uu yahay digniin ku saabsan xukun soo socda, xukunka Islaamiga ah ee uu matalayo hoogga saddexaad si fudud ayaa loo fahmi karaa inuu yahay “hoogga” lagu soo dejiyo “dhulka” iyo “badda.”

The judgment of the living began on September 11, 2001, and from that point, until the soon-coming Sunday law, the test of the formation of the image of the beast takes place in the United States. From the Sunday law until Michael stands up and human probation closes, the rest of the world will then be tested by the formation of the image of the beast. Whether Seventh-day Adventists in the United States are being tested, or the entire world after the Sunday law is being tested, the test is defined as the test where our eternal destiny will be decided. It is also the test we must pass, before probation closes at the Sunday law. The prophetic phenomenon of an image to the beast test first in the United States and then again in the world, is essential to understand correctly.

Xukunka kuwa nool waxay bilaabatay Sebtembar 11, 2001, waxaana laga bilaabo markaas ilaa sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan iman doona, gudaha Maraykanka ka dhacaya imtixaanka samaysanka ekaanta bahalka. Laga bilaabo sharciga Axadda ilaa Miikaa’iil istaago oo muddadii tijaabada aadanuhu xidhanto, dunida inteeda kale ayaa markaas lagu tijaabin doonaa samaysanka ekaanta bahalka. Haddii ay tahay in Adfentistayaasha Maalinta Toddobaad ee ku sugan Maraykanka la tijaabinayo, ama ay tahay in dunida oo dhan la tijaabinayo ka dib sharciga Axadda, imtixaankaas waxaa lagu qeexaa inuu yahay imtixaanka lagu go’aamin doono masiirkayaga weligeed ah. Sidoo kale waa imtixaanka ay tahay inaynu gudubno ka hor intaan muddadii tijaabadu xidhmin marka uu yimaado sharciga Axaddu. Ifafaalaha nebinnimo ee ah in imtixaanka ekaanta bahalku marka hore ka dhaco Maraykanka dabadeedna mar kale dunida, waa arrin lama huraan u ah in si sax ah loo fahmo.

> “As America, the land of religious liberty, shall unite with the Papacy in forcing the conscience and compelling men to honor the false sabbath, the people of every country on the globe will be led to follow her example.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18.

> “Sida Ameerika, oo ah dhulka xorriyadda diinta, ay ula midoobi doonto Baabtiisnimada ku khasbidda damiirka iyo ku qasbidda dadka inay maamuusaan sabtida been-abuurka ah, dadka waddan kasta oo dunida ku nool waxaa loo horseedi doonaa inay raacaan tusaalaheeda.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18.

When the symbols are understood, then the passage in Revelation thirteen, that addresses these two successive, but identical image of the beast tests, can be easily recognized. It is important for a variety of reasons. One reason is the corrupted communications that Lucifer employed in the first war in the third heaven illustrate how Satan’s corrupted communications will manifest again in the last war in the first heaven.

Marka calaamadaha la fahmo, markaas tuduca ku jira Muujintii cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad, ee ka hadlaya labadan imtixaan ee isku xiga, hase yeeshee ah isla ekaanta bahalka, si fudud ayaa loo garan karaa. Arrintani waxay muhiim u tahay sababo kala duwan awgood. Mid ka mid ah sababaha ayaa ah in isgaarsiintii fasaqowday ee Luusiifar adeegsaday dagaalkii ugu horreeyey ee samada saddexaad ay muujinayso sida isgaarsiinta fasaqowday ee Shayddaan mar kale uga soo muuqan doonto dagaalka ugu dambeeya ee samada koowaad.

The war of the first heaven that begins at the Sunday law, is accomplished during the testing period of the image of the beast for the entire world. Since September 11, 2001, the testing period of the image of the beast in the United States has been taking place. When we recognize these two testing periods as sequential, beginning with the United States and then the world, we can then factor in truths that are represented in the war of Revelation chapter twelve, back into the history of 2001, unto the Sunday law. As an example, the corrupted communications of Lucifer that is defined as hypnosis, will be employed in a modern application by the dragon power during the battle of the first heaven, of Revelation chapter twelve. The hypnosis that is employed by the dragon in that history is for the purpose of murdering those that Jezebel has identified as heretics.

Dagaalkii samada koowaad ee ka bilaabma sharciga Axadda, waxa uu rumoobayaa muddada imtixaanka ee sawirka bahalka ee dunida oo dhan. Tan iyo Sebtembar 11, 2001, muddada imtixaanka ee sawirka bahalka ee Maraykanka ayaa socotay. Markaan aqoonsanno labadan muddo imtixaan inay isdaba-joog yihiin, oo ka bilaabmaya Maraykanka dabadeedna dunida, markaas ayaynu ku dabaqi karnaa taariikho ka tarjumaya dagaalka Muujintii cutubka laba iyo tobnaad, annagoo dib ugu celinayna taariikhda 2001 ilaa sharciga Axadda. Tusaale ahaan, isgaarsiinta musuqmaasuqan ee Lucifer oo lagu qeexay hypnotism, ayaa lagu adeegsan doonaa dabaqad casri ah awoodda masduulaagga intii lagu jiray dagaalka samada koowaad, ee Muujintii cutubka laba iyo tobnaad. Hypnotism-ka uu masduulaaggu ku adeegsanayo taariikhdaas waxa uu ujeedkiisu yahay dilka kuwa Yesebeel u aqoonsatay inay yihiin bidcayaal.

In the history of 2001, to the Sunday law, two witnesses were murdered in the street of Sodom and Egypt. In the first fulfillment of Revelation eleven, the nation represented by Sodom and Egypt, was France. France is a prophetic nation that consists of two powers, as did the Medo-Persian Empire, as did ancient Israel in its divided kingdoms, and as did the two tribes of Judah represented by Judah and Benjamin. All two-horned nations symbolically represent the two-horned nation of the United States.

Taariikhda 2001, ilaa sharciga Axadda, laba markhaati ayaa lagu dilay waddada Sodom iyo Masar. Dhammaystirkii ugu horreeyey ee Muujintii kow iyo tobnaad, qaranka lagu matalay Sodom iyo Masar wuxuu ahaa Faransiiska. Faransiisku waa qaran nebiyaysan oo ka kooban laba awoodood, sida ay ahayd Boqortooyadii Maadooyiin iyo Faaris, sida ay ahayd reer binu Israa’iilkii hore ee boqortooyooyinkoodii kala qaybsanaa, iyo sida ay ahaayeen labada qabiil ee Yahuudah oo ay matalayeen Yahuudah iyo Benyaamiin. Dhammaan quruumaha laba-geesoodka ah waxay astaan ahaan u metelaan qaranka laba-geesoodka ah ee Maraykanka.

The city of Sodom, and nation of Egypt, represents the two horns of Republicanism (Egypt) and Protestantism (Sodom). Two horns were slain in 2020, the horn of Republicanism and the horn of Protestantism. The hypnotism employed by the globalist dragon powers, through the medium of the worldwide web was then employed, in the same fashion that it will be employed in the upcoming war of the first heaven. By controlling the message that the worldwide web produced, the election of 2020, was scientifically manipulated to produce an outcome that agreed with the philosophy of globalism. This is simply an example of the necessity of understanding that the image of the beast test is accomplished first in the United States, and then in the world.

Magaalada Sodom, iyo quruunta Masar, waxay matalaan labada gees ee Jamhuuriyaannimada (Masar) iyo Borotestantiisamka (Sodom). Laba gees ayaa la laayay sannadkii 2020, geeskii Jamhuuriyaannimada iyo geeskii Borotestantiisamka. Markaas ayaa miyir-sugidii ay adeegsadeen quwadaha masduulaagga caalamiyeysan, iyagoo adeegsanaya dhexdhexaadinta shabakadda dunida oo dhan, loo adeegsaday si la mid ah sida loogu adeegsan doono dagaalka soo socda ee samada kowaad. Iyadoo la xakamaynayo farriinta ay soo saartay shabakadda dunida oo dhan, doorashadii 2020 waxaa si cilmiyeed loo maamuley si loo soo saaro natiijo waafaqsan falsafadda caalamiyeynta. Tani si fudud waa tusaale muujinaya lama huraanka ah in la fahmo in imtixaanka sawirka bahalka marka hore lagu dhammaystiro Maraykanka, dabadeedna dunida.

> “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.

> “Rabbigu si cad ayuu ii tusay in sanamka bahalka la samayn doono ka hor intuusan wakhtiga nimcadu xidhmin; waayo, tani waxay ahaan doontaa imtixaanka weyn ee dadka Ilaah, kaas oo aayahooda weligeed ah lagu go’aamin doono. Mowqifkaagu waa isku dhex yaac iskhilaafyo ah oo sidaas u qasan, sidaas darteed in yar mooyaane lama khiyaanayn doono.

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

> “Muujintii 13 mawduucan si cad baa loo soo bandhigay; [Muujintii 13:11–17, waa la soo xigtay].”

> “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.

> “Tanu waa imtixaanka ay tahay in dadka Ilaah maraan ka hor inta aan la shaabadayn. Kuwa dhammaantood daacadnimadooda Ilaah ku caddeeyey iyagoo dhawray sharcigiisa, oo diiday inay aqbalaan sabti been-abuur ah, waxay hoos geli doonaan calanka Rabbiga Ilaah Yehowah, oo waxay heli doonaan shaabadda Ilaaha nool. Kuwa ka tanaasula runta asalkoodu samada yahay oo aqbala sabtida Axadda, waxay heli doonaan calaamadda bahalka.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

Probation closes for Seventh-day Adventists, at the enforcement of the Sunday law. Those countries that follow the example of the United States, will close their probation as did the United States.

Albaabkii tijaabadu wuxuu u xirmayaa Adventist‑ka toddobaadka toddobaad, marka la dhaqan geliyo sharciga Axadda. Dalalka raaca tusaalaha Maraykanka, albaabkooda tijaabadu sidoo kale wuu u xirmi doonaa sida uu ugu xirmay Maraykanka.

> “Foreign nations will follow the example of the United States. Though she leads out, yet the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.” Testimonies, volume 6, 395.

> “Quruumaha shisheeye waxay raaci doonaan tusaalaha Maraykanka. In kasta oo iyadu hormuud ka noqoto, haddana isla qalalaasahaas ayaa ku iman doona dadkeenna dunida oo dhan meel kasta oo ay joogaan.” Testimonies, volume 6, 395.

The final movements are rapid ones.

Dhaqdhaqaaqyada ugu dambeeya waa kuwo degdeg badan.

> “The agencies of evil are combining their forces and consolidating. They are strengthening for the last great crisis. Great changes are soon to take place in our world, and the final movements will be rapid ones.” Testimonies, volume 9, 11.

> “Wakaaladaha sharka ahi waxay isu geynayaan xoogaggooda oo way isku urursanayaan. Waxay isu adkaynayaan qalalaasaha weyn ee ugu dambeeya. Isbeddello waaweyn ayaa dhowaan dunideenna ka dhici doona, dhaqdhaqaaqyada ugu dambeeyana waxay ahaan doonaan kuwo degdeg badan.” Testimonies, volume 9, 11.

To understand the test of the image of the beast, requires a certain amount of technical prophetic application. To start with, the mark of the beast and the image of the beast are two different symbols.

Si loo fahmo imtixaanka sawirka bahalka, waxa loo baahan yahay qaddar cayiman oo ku-dabaqid farsamo oo waxsii sheegid ah. Marka hore, calaamadda bahalka iyo sawirka bahalku waa laba astaamood oo kala duwan.

> “The ‘image to the beast’ represents that form of apostate Protestantism which will be developed when the Protestant churches shall seek the aid of the civil power for the enforcement of their dogmas. The ‘mark of the beast’ still remains to be defined.” The Great Controversy, 445.

> “‘Sanamka bahalka’ wuxuu u taagan yahay qaabkaas Protestantnimada riddowday ah ee soo bixi doona marka kaniisadaha Protestantku ay gargaar ka doondoonaan awoodda madaniga ah si loo meel mariyo caqiidooyinkooda. ‘Calaamadda bahalka’ weli waa in la qeexaa.” The Great Controversy, 445.

The mark of the beast is Sunday observance, and the image of the beast is a church that employs the civil power to enforce her religious doctrines.

Calaamadda bahalka waa dhawrista Axadda, sawirka bahalkuna waa kaniisad adeegsata awoodda madaniga ah si ay ugu khasabto caqiidooyinkeeda diimeed.

> “The enforcement of Sundaykeeping on the part of Protestant churches is an enforcement of the worship of the papacy—of the beast. Those who, understanding the claims of the fourth commandment, choose to observe the false instead of the true Sabbath are thereby paying homage to that power by which alone it is commanded. But in the very act of enforcing a religious duty by secular power, the churches would themselves form an image to the beast; hence the enforcement of Sundaykeeping in the United States would be an enforcement of the worship of the beast and his image.” The Great Controversy, 448, 449.

> “Ku qasbidda dhawrista Axadda ee dhinaca kaniisadaha Protestanka waa ku qasbidda cibaadada baabtiisnimada Roomaanka—taas oo ah bahalka. Kuwa, iyagoo garanaya sheegashooyinka amarka afraad, doorta inay dhawraan sabtida beenta ah halkii ay ka dhawri lahaayeen Sabtida runta ah, sidaas ayay ugu muujinayaan maamuus awooddaas oo keliya lagu amray. Laakiin isla falka lagu qasbayo waajib diineed iyadoo la adeegsanayo awood madani ah, kaniisaduhu qudhoodu waxay samayn lahaayeen ekaan bahalka; sidaas daraaddeed ku qasbidda dhawrista Axadda ee dalka Maraykanka waxay noqon lahayd ku qasbidda cibaadada bahalka iyo ekaankiisa.” The Great Controversy, 448, 449.

The image of the beast represents the combination of church and state with the church in control of the relationship. Jezebel ruled over Ahab, as Herodias ruled over Herod. The mark of the beast is Sunday keeping. The image of the beast develops over a period of time. The mark of the beast represents a point in time. The image of the beast progressively develops, but only reaches its full maturity, when it has the power to force the state to pass its religious dogmas. The test is associated with the “formation” of the image.

Sawirka bahalka wuxuu matalaa isku-darka kaniisadda iyo dawladda iyadoo kaniisaddu ay maamusho xiriirkaas. Yesebeel waxay xukuntay Axaab, sida Herodiyas ay ugu talisay Herodos. Astaanta bahalka waa ilaalinta Axadda. Sawirka bahalku wuxuu samaysmaa muddaba wakhti ah. Astaanta bahalku waxay ka dhigan tahay hal dhibic oo waqti ah. Sawirka bahalku si tartiib-tartiib ah ayuu u kobcaa, laakiin bisaylkiisa buuxa wuxuu gaadhaa oo keliya marka uu yeesho awood uu ku khasbo dawladda inay meelmariso caqiidooyinkiisa diineed. Imtixaanku wuxuu la xidhiidhaa “samaysanka” sawirka.

> “But what is the ‘image to the beast’? and how is it to be formed? The image is made by the two-horned beast, and is an image to the beast. It is also called an image of the beast. Then to learn what the image is like and how it is to be formed we must study the characteristics of the beast itself—the papacy.

> “Laakiin waa maxay ‘sanamka bahalka’? sideese loo samaynayaa? Sanamka waxaa sameeya bahalka labada gees leh, waana sanamkii bahalka. Waxaa kaloo loogu yeedhaa sanamka bahalka. Haddaba si aynu u ogaanno waxa sanamku u eg yahay iyo sida loo samaynayo, waa in aynu daraasaynaa sifooyinka bahalka laftiisa—baabanimada.

> “When the early church became corrupted by departing from the simplicity of the gospel and accepting heathen rites and customs, she lost the Spirit and power of God; and in order to control the consciences of the people, she sought the support of the secular power. The result was the papacy, a church that controlled the power of the state and employed it to further her own ends, especially for the punishment of ‘heresy.’ In order for the United States to form an image of the beast, the religious power must so control the civil government that the authority of the state will also be employed by the church to accomplish her own ends.” The Great Controversy, 443.

> “Markii kiniisaddii hore ay ku kharribantay ka leexashada fudaydka injiilka iyo aqbalidda caadooyin iyo xaflado jaahilnimo ah, waxay lumisay Ruuxa iyo xoogga Ilaah; si ayse u xukunto damiirrada dadka, waxay raadisay taageerada awoodda cilmaaniga ah. Natiijaduna waxay noqotay baabacyada, oo ah kaniisad xukuntay awoodda dawladda kana adeegsatay si ay u hormariso ujeeddooyinkeeda gaarka ah, gaar ahaan ciqaabidda ‘bidcada.’ Si Maraykanku u sameeyo suuradda bahalka, waa in awoodda diineed ay sidaas u maamusho dawladda madaniga ah in awoodda dawladdana ay kaniisaddu ku adeegsato fulinta ujeeddooyinkeeda gaarka ah.” The Great Controversy, 443.

The distinction between the image of the beast and the mark of the beast is fairly traditional Adventist understanding. Where Adventism generally loses its way on this subject is in Revelation thirteen. They somehow mix the activity of the United States after the Sunday law, when it forces the world to set up an image to the beast, with the setting up of the image of the beast in the United States. They are two different prophetic periods.

Kala soocidda u dhexeysa ekaanta bahalka iyo calaamadda bahalka waa faham si caddaalad ah uga mid ah fahamka dhaqameed ee Adventist-ka. Meesha ay Adventism-ku guud ahaan ka lunto jidka mawduucan ku saabsan waa Muujintii cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad. Si uun bay isugu qasaan hawsha Maraykanka ka dib sharciga Axadda, marka uu dunida ku khasbo inay bahalka u taagto ekaan, iyo taagidda ekaanta bahalka ee Maraykanka gudaheeda. Waa laba xilli oo nebiyadeed oo kala duwan.

Christ came to confirm the covenant with many for one week, and in the middle of the week He was crucified. Thus, that week typifies the two periods of time when an image of the beast is formed. Christ’s week was divided into two identical periods, representing the image of Christ. The two testing periods of times in the last days, represents the image of the antichrist.

Masiixu wuxuu u yimid inuu axdiga la adkeeyo kuwo badan hal toddobaad aawadiis, badhtanka toddobaadkana waa la iskutallaabay. Sidaas darteed, toddobaadkaasu wuxuu astaan u yahay labada xilli ee wakhtiga marka ekaanta bahalka la sameeyo. Toddobaadkii Masiixu wuxuu u qaybsanaa laba xilli oo isu-eg, kuwaas oo matalaya ekaanta Masiixa. Labada xilli ee imtixaanka ee wakhtiyada maalmaha ugu dambeeya waxay matalaan ekaanta ka geesta Masiixa.

In the first period of twelve hundred and sixty days, Christ bore His own testimony, and then He died on the cross. There was then an identical twelve hundred and sixty days where the disciples testified, until Michael stood up at the stoning of Stephen. The cross typifies the Sunday law. The two periods of testing in connection with the formation of the image of the beast, identify the first period in connection with the one hundred and forty-four thousand, who are typified by Christ, and that period ends at the Sunday law, which is typified by the cross. The last identical period of testing that was represented by the work of the disciples in the time of Christ, focuses upon the great multitude, and it ends when Michael stands up, not at the stoning of Stephen, but at the close of human probation in Daniel 12:1.

Muddadii ugu horraysay ee kun iyo laba boqol iyo lixdan maalmood, Masiixu wuxuu qaaday markhaatigiisa qudhiisa, dabadeedna wuxuu ku dhintay iskutallaabta. Markaas waxaa xigtay kun iyo laba boqol iyo lixdan maalmood oo la mid ah, kuwaas oo xertii ay markhaati ka bixinayeen, ilaa Miikaa’iil istaagay marka Istefanos la dhagxinayay. Iskutallaabtu waxay astaan u tahay sharciga Axadda. Labadaas muddadood ee imtixaanka ah ee la xidhiidha samaysanka sanamka bahalka, waxay muddadii ugu horraysay ku aqoonsanayaan xidhiidhka ay la leedahay boqolka iyo afartan iyo afarta kun, kuwaas oo Masiix astaan u yahay; muddadaasina waxay ku dhammaanaysaa sharciga Axadda, kaas oo iskutallaabtu astaan u tahay. Muddada ugu dambaysa ee la midka ah ee imtixaanka, taas oo lagu matalay shaqadii xertii wakhtigii Masiixa, waxay diiradda saaraysaa dadkii badnaa ee faraha badnaa, waxayna ku dhammaanaysaa marka Miikaa’iil istaago—ee aan ahayn marka Istefanos la dhagxinayay, balse marka nimcada aadanaha ay xidhanto sida ku qoran Daanyeel 12:1.

Some fail to see the actual sequence of events in Revelation thirteen, verse eleven and onward, due to what often appears to be a purposeful unwillingness to acknowledge that when the United States speaks as a dragon, it represents the complete formation of the image of the beast in the United States. In order for the United States to pass a Sunday law, the image of the beast in the United States must be formed before the Sunday law. Read the few previous passages just cited from The Great Controversy again, if you do not understand the point.

Qaar baa ku guuldarraysta inay arkaan isku xigxiga dhabta ah ee dhacdooyinka ku qoran Muujintii cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad, aayadda kow iyo tobnaad iyo wixii ka dambeeya, taas oo ay ugu wacan tahay waxa marar badan u muuqda diidmo ula kac ah oo ah in la qiro in marka Maraykanku u hadlo sidii masduulaagii, ay taasi ka dhigan tahay samaysanka buuxa ee sawirka bahalka ee Maraykanka. Si Maraykanku u meel mariyo sharci Axadeed, sawirka bahalka ee Maraykanka waa inuu samaysmaa ka hor sharciga Axadda. Mar kale akhri dhawrkii tuduc ee hore ee hadda laga soo xigtay The Great Controversy, haddii aadan fahmin qodobka.

When the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven of chapter thirteen, it represents the action of the legislative and judicial authorities passing a Sunday law at the direction of the apostate churches in the United States. The Sunday law decree goes out of the mouth of the United States.

Marka Maraykanku u hadasho sida mas ku xusan aayadda kow iyo tobnaad ee cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad, waxay ka dhigan tahay falka hay’adaha sharci-dejinta iyo garsoorka oo soo saaraya sharci Axad ah iyagoo raacaya amarka kaniisadaha riddada ah ee Maraykanka. Wareegtada sharciga Axadda waxay ka soo baxdaa afka Maraykanka.

> “I saw that the two-horned beast had a dragon’s mouth, and that his power was in his head, and that the decree would go out of his mouth.” Spalding and Magan, 1.

> “Waxaan arkay in bahalkii laba-geesoodka lahaa uu lahaa af masduulaagii oo kale, iyo in xooggiisu ku jiray madaxiisa, iyo in amarku afkiisa ka soo bixi doono.” Spalding and Magan, 1.

It has always amazed me that Adventism has a hard time recognizing that when the two horned earth beast speaks as a dragon, it is not simply marking the Sunday law in the United States, but is also marking that the image of the papal sea beast has been fully developed. In order for the United States to pass the Sunday law, the combination of church and state has to have first been fully developed. The apostate churches of the United States do not simply come together on a Monday, then go to Congress on Tuesday, and tell Congress they want Sunday legislation passed by Wednesday. The combining process that takes place between church and state, is represented as the “formation” of the image of the beast like the “formation” of the golden image in Daniel chapter 3, it will take some time to construct. The image of the beast is the system the papacy used to murder the millions of martyrs in the Dark Ages, and it takes social, political, religious and economic developments to create the social environment, and legal precedence necessary, for the Sunday law to be enforced. Those developments represent the test of the image of the beast, by “which our eternal destiny will be decided,” and it represents the test we must pass “before we are sealed.”

Waxa had iyo goor iga yaabiyey in Adventism-ku ay ku adkaato inay garato in marka bahalka dhulka ka soo baxay ee labada gees leh uu u hadlo sida masduulaagii, arrintaasi aanay si fudud u calaamadinayn oo keliya sharciga Axadda ee Maraykanka, balse ay sidoo kale calaamadinayso in sanamkii bahalka badda ee baabbanimo si buuxda loo horumariyey. Si Maraykanku u meel mariyo sharciga Axadda, isku-darka kaniisadda iyo dawladda waa inuu marka hore si buuxda u samaysmay. Kaniisadaha riddada ah ee Maraykanku si fudud isuguma yimaadaan Isniin, dabadeedna Talaado uguma tagaan Kongareeska, iyaga oo Kongareeska ku leh waxay doonayaan in sharci Axadeed la ansixiyo Arbacada. Habka isu-biirista ee ka dhex dhacaya kaniisadda iyo dawladda waxaa loo matalayaa “samaysanka” sanamka bahalka, sida “samaysankii” sanamka dahabka ahaa ee ku jira Daanyeel cutubka 3aad; waxay qaadan doontaa wakhti in la dhiso. Sanamka bahalku waa nidaamkii baabbanimadu u adeegsatay inay ku disho malaayiinta shuhado ah xilligii Qarniyadii Mugdiga, waxaana loo baahan yahay horumarro bulsheed, siyaasadeed, diineed, iyo dhaqaale si loo abuuro jawiga bulsheed, iyo saldhigga sharci ee lagama maarmaanka ah, si sharciga Axadda loo dhaqan geliyo. Horumarradaasu waxay metelaan imtixaanka sanamka bahalka, kaas oo “aayadeenna weligeed ah lagu go’aamin doono,” waxayna metelaan imtixaanka ay tahay inaan gudubno “ka hor intaan nala shaabadayn.”

> “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. . .. This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

> “Rabbigu wuxuu si cad ii tusay in sanamka bahalka la samayn doono ka hor intaan wakhtiga nimcadu xidhmin; waayo, taasu waxay dadka Ilaah u noqon doontaa imtixaanka weyn, kaas oo masiirkooda daa’imka ah lagu go’aamin doono.... Tanu waa imtixaanka ay tahay in dadka Ilaah maraan ka hor intaan la shaabadayn.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

The Sunday law is the crisis at midnight, that finds its final perfect fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins. In that midnight crisis, it will be manifested whether we are wise Philadelphian or foolish Laodicean virgins. The foolish receive the mark of the beast and the wise receive the seal of God. Anyone who has ever joined the Seventh-day Adventist church, agreed to the list of doctrinal truths in advance of becoming a member, and therefore every Seventh-day Adventist has been presented with the light of the truth of the Sabbath.

Sharciga Axadda waa qalalaasaha habeenbadhka, kaas oo ka hela dhammaystirkiisa ugu dambeeya oo kaamilka ah masalka tobanka bikradood. Qalalaasahaas habeenbadhka ah dhexdiisa waxaa lagu muujin doonaa inaynu nahay bikrado xigmad leh oo Filadelfiya ah ama bikrado nacas ah oo La’odikiya ah. Kuwa nacaska ahi waxay helaan calaamadda bahalka, kuwa xigmadda lihi se waxay helaan shaabadda Ilaah. Qof kasta oo waligiis ku biiray kaniisadda Seventh-day Adventist, oo oggolaaday liiska runta caqiidada ka hor intuusan xubin noqon, sidaas darteedna Seventh-day Adventist kasta waxaa loo soo bandhigay iftiinka runta Sabtida.

> “If the light of truth has been presented to you, revealing the Sabbath of the fourth commandment, and showing that there is no foundation in the Word of God for Sunday observance, and yet you still cling to the false sabbath, refusing to keep holy the Sabbath which God calls ‘my holy day,’ you receive the mark of the beast. When does this take place?—When you obey the decree that commands you to cease from labor on Sunday and worship God, while you know that there is not a word in the Bible showing Sunday to be other than a common working-day, you consent to receive the mark of the beast, and refuse the seal of God. If we receive this mark in our foreheads or in our hands, the judgments pronounced against the disobedient must fall upon us. But the seal of the living God is placed upon those who conscientiously keep the Sabbath of the Lord.” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.

> “Haddii iftiinka runta laguu soo bandhigay, isagoo kuu muujinaya Sabtida amarka afraad, oo tusaya in aanay jirin wax sal ah oo ku jira Erayga Ilaah oo taageeraya dhawrista Axadda, haddana aad weli ku dhegto sabtida beenta ah, adigoo diidaya inaad quduus ka dhigto Sabtida uu Ilaah ugu yeedho ‘maalintayda quduuska ah,’ waxaad heshaa calaamadda bahalka. Goormay tani dhacdaa?—Markaad addeecdo amarka kugu faraya inaad joojiso shaqada Axadda oo aad Ilaah caabuddo, adigoo og in aanay jirin xataa hal eray oo Kitaabka Quduuska ah ku jira oo muujinaya in Axaddu tahay wax ka duwan maalin shaqo oo caadi ah, waxaad oggolaanaysaa inaad hesho calaamadda bahalka, oo waxaad diidaysaa shaabadda Ilaah. Haddii aynu calaamaddan ku qaadanno fooddaheenna ama gacmaheenna, xukunnada lagu dhawaaqay kuwa caasiyiinta ah waa inay innagu dhacaan. Laakiin shaabadda Ilaaha nool waxaa la saaraa kuwa si damiir leh u xajiya Sabtida Rabbiga.” Review and Herald, April 27, 1911.

The formation of the image of the beast in the United States began prophetically on September 11, 2001. There are several prophetic witnesses to uphold this fact. From that point until the soon-coming Sunday law, Seventh-day Adventists are determining their eternal destiny, based upon whether they pass the image of the beast test or fail the image of the beast test. I would argue that very few Seventh-day Adventists even know that the image of the beast is a test. Few, if any, know how it can be a test, and more importantly, they do not know what is required to pass the test. We are judged, not alone by the light we possess, but also by the light we could have possessed, if we would have applied ourselves to understanding the increase of knowledge. Laodicean blindness is therefore the greatest blindness in six thousand years of sin.

Samaysanka suuradda bahalka ee Maraykanka waxay si nebiyad ahaan ah ku bilaabatay Sebtembar 11, 2001. Waxaa jira dhowr markhaati oo nebiyad ah oo xaqiiqadan taageeraya. Laga bilaabo bartaas ilaa sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan iman doona, Adventist-yada maalinta toddobaad waxay go’aaminayaan qaddarkooda weligeed ah, taas oo ku xiran haddii ay ka gudbaan imtixaanka suuradda bahalka ama ay ku dhacaan imtixaanka suuradda bahalka. Waxaan ku doodi lahaa in Adventist-yada maalinta toddobaad aad u yar ay xataa og yihiin in suuradda bahalku tahay imtixaan. In yar, haddii ayba jiraan, ayaa og sida ay u noqon karto imtixaan, waxaana taas ka sii muhiimsan, ma oga waxa looga baahan yahay si imtixaanka looga gudbo. Waxaa nalagu xukumaa, ma aha oo keliya iftiinka aan haysanno, laakiin sidoo kale iftiinka aan heli karnay, haddii aynu nafteena ku dadaalin lahayn fahamka korodhka aqoonta. Sidaas daraaddeed indho-la’aanta La’odikiya waa indho-la’aantii ugu weynayd lix kun oo sano oo dembi ah.

> My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6.

> Dadkaygu waa baabba'een aqoonla'aan aawadeed; maxaa yeelay aqoontii waad diidday, aniguna waan ku diidi doonaa, si aadan iigu ahaan wadaad; maxaa yeelay sharcigii Ilaahaaga waad illowday, aniguna carruurtaada waan illoobi doonaa. Hosea 4:6.

The test of the formation of the image of the beast ends at the soon-coming Sunday law, and if we have not passed that test, we will receive the mark of the beast with all the other foolish Laodicean virgins, who refused to obtain the oil. I am not here defending why I understand the image of the beast test began on September 11, 2001, and ends at the Sunday law. I am simply identifying the prophetic logic necessary to understand the role of the United States, as identified in Revelation thirteen, after it passes the Sunday law. In verse eleven, it speaks as a dragon, and from that point on it is important to follow the word “he.” The image of the beast that the United States is then forcing the world to set up, is not the image of the beast in the United States, for that is already in the past.

Imtixaanka ku saabsan samaysanka sanamka bahalka wuxuu ku dhammaanayaa sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan imanaya, oo haddii aynaan ka gudbin imtixaankaas, waxaan heli doonnaa calaamadda bahalka annaga iyo dhammaan bikradaha nacasyada ah ee La’odikiya, kuwaas oo diiday inay helaan saliidda. Halkan uma joogo inaan difaaco sababta aan u fahmay in imtixaanka sanamka bahalku bilaabmay Sebtembar 11, 2001, oo uu ku dhammaanayo sharciga Axadda. Waxaan si fudud u aqoonsanayaa macquulka nebiyadeed ee lagama maarmaanka u ah in la fahmo doorka Maraykanka, sida lagu aqoonsaday Muujintii cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad, ka dib markuu meelmariyo sharciga Axadda. Aayadda kow iyo tobnaad, wuxuu ugu hadlaa sida masduulaagii, oo laga bilaabo halkaas waxaa muhiim ah in la raaco erayga “isagu.” Sanamka bahalka ee Maraykanku markaas dunida ku khasbayo inay taagto, ma aha sanamka bahalka ee ku jira Maraykanka, waayo kaas hore ayuu u soo maray.

> And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 13:11–17.

> Oo waxaan arkay bahal kale oo dhulka ka soo baxaya; oo wuxuu lahaa laba gees oo u eg wan, wuxuuna u hadlay sidii masduulaagii. Oo wuxuu hortiisa ku adeegsadaa xoogga bahalkii kowaad oo dhan, wuxuuna ka dhigaa dhulka iyo kuwa dhex degganba inay caabudaan bahalkii kowaad, kaas oo nabarkiisii dhimashada lahaa la bogsiiyey. Oo wuxuu sameeyaa calaamooyin waaweyn, si uu xataa dab uga soo dejiyo samada ilaa dhulka iyadoo dadku arkayaan, oo wuxuu ku khiyaaneeyaa kuwa dhulka deggan calaamooyinkaas uu awoodda u lahaa inuu ku sameeyo hortiisa bahalka; isagoo ku leh kuwa dhulka deggan inay u sameeyaan bahalka sanam, kaas oo seef lagu dhaawacay, haddana noolaa. Oo wuxuu lahaa awood uu naf ugu siiyo sanamka bahalka, si sanamka bahalku u hadlo oo weliba uu u yeelo in kuwa aan caabudin sanamka bahalka la laayo intii ay yihiinba. Oo wuxuu ka dhigaa dhammaan, kuwa yaryar iyo kuwa waaweynba, kuwa taajiriinta ah iyo kuwa saboolka ahba, kuwa xorta ah iyo kuwa addoommada ahba, in lagu siiyo calaamad gacantooda midig ama fooddooda; iyo inaan ninna wax iibsan karin ama wax iibin karin, kan mooyaane haysta calaamadda, ama magaca bahalka, ama tirada magiciisa. Muujintii 13:11–17.

In those seven verses, the word “he” occurs eight times. Every time the word “he” is employed it refers back to the original “he,” “that spake as a dragon,” at the Sunday law in the United States. The image of the beast test that Adventists in the United States either passed or failed, when the United States spake as a dragon, is then repeated for Adventists in the other nations of the world, and also for God’s other children that are still in Babylon. We will continue our consideration of the United States in Revelation thirteen in the next article, but let me remind you of why we are considering this truth at this time.

Toddobada aayadood, erayga “isagu” wuxuu ku soo noqnoqdaa siddeed jeer. Mar kasta oo erayga “isagu” la adeegsado, wuxuu dib ugu noqonayaa “isagii” asalka ahaa, kaas oo “u hadlay sidii masduulaagii,” xilligii sharciga Axadda ee Maraykanka. Imtixaankii sawirka bahalka ee Adventist‑yada ku noolaa Maraykanka ay ama ku guulaysteen ama ku dhaceen, markii Maraykanku u hadlay sidii masduulaagii, dabadeedna waxaa mar kale loo soo celinayaa Adventist‑yada ku nool quruumaha kale ee dunida, iyo sidoo kale carruurta kale ee Ilaah ee weli Baabuloon ku jira. Maqaalka xiga waxaan ku sii wadi doonnaa tixgelinteenna ku saabsan Maraykanka ee Muujintii cutubka saddex iyo tobnaad, hase yeeshee aan idin xusuusiyo sababta aynu waqtigan runtaan u tixgelinayno.

The war that began with Lucifer in the third heaven typifies the war that begins in the first heaven at the Sunday law. The corrupted communications of the dragon are represented in both battles. The modern manifestation of Satan’s corrupted communications represents the hypnotic trance that planet earth succumbs to in the history after the soon coming Sunday law. That delusion is accomplished through the worldwide web’s control of what is called “the information super highway.” Those various avenues of the “information super highway” are social, economic, religious, so-called science, entertainment and more importantly the avenue of the news media.

Dagaalkii ka bilowday Luusifar samada saddexaad wuxuu astaan u yahay dagaalka ka bilaabma samada kowaad marka la gaaro sharciga Axadda. Isgaarsiimaha kharribmay ee masduulaagga waxaa lagu matalay labadaba labadaas dagaal. Muujinta casriga ah ee isgaarsiimaha kharribmay ee Shayddaanku waxay ka dhigan tahay suuxdinta hypnotic‑ka ah ee meeraha dhulku ugu dhacayo taariikhda ka dambaysa sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan imanaya. Marin‑habaabintaas waxaa lagu fuliyaa iyadoo shabakadda caalamiga ahi maamusho waxa loo yaqaan “jidka weyn ee xogta.” Waddooyinka kala duwan ee “jidka weyn ee xogta” waxaa ka mid ah kuwa bulshada, dhaqaalaha, diinta, waxa loogu yeedho sayniska, madadaalada, iyo tan ka sii muhiimsanba waddada warbaahinta.

Once the truth is recognized that the “information super highway,” is the modern manifestation of the Satanic hypnotic communications, and also the subtle hypnosis that was employed by Satan in the battle of the angels in the third heaven, we can establish the “information super highway” is an element of the “last” image of the beast test for the world, that takes place after the Sunday law. It will then be easy to recognize that the “first” image of the beast test for the United States must possess the same corrupted Satanic communications as the last. The witness of Satan’s work of corrupting “the information super highway” from the Sunday law through to the close of probation provides the evidence of how the murder of the two horns of Republicanism and the remnant of true Protestantism on the earth beast was accomplished in 2020. It was accomplished by the “information super highway,” that John calls a “street” in Revelation eleven.

Marka runta la aqoonsado in “jidka weyn ee macluumaadka” uu yahay muujinta casriga ah ee isgaadhsiimaha sixir-suuradeed ee Shaydaanka, isla markaana uu yahay isla sixir-suuradda dhuuman ee Shaydaanku u adeegsaday dagaalkii malaa’igta ee samada saddexaad, markaas waxa aynu caddayn karnaa in “jidka weyn ee macluumaadka” uu yahay qayb ka mid ah imtixaanka “ugu dambeeya” ee ekaanta bahalka ee dunida, kaas oo dhacaya ka dib sharciga Axadda. Markaas way fududaan doontaa in la garto in imtixaanka “koowaad” ee ekaanta bahalka ee Maraykanku uu khasab ku yahay inuu lahaado isla isgaadhsiimaha Shaydaannimo ee musuqmaasuqmay sida kan ugu dambeeya. Markhaatiga hawsha Shaydaanka ee musuqmaasuqidda “jidka weyn ee macluumaadka” laga bilaabo sharciga Axadda ilaa xidhitaanka muddada nimcada ayaa bixinaya caddaynta sida dilkii labada gees ee Jamhuuriyadnimada iyo hadhaagii Protestantnimada runta ah ee bahalka dhulka loogu fuliyey sannadkii 2020. Waxa lagu fuliyey “jidka weyn ee macluumaadka,” kaas oo Yooxanaa ugu yeedho “waddo” Muujintii kow iyo tobnaad.

The unsealing of these prophetic facts is a portion of what is required to be understood by those who intend to pass the test of the image of the beast, which was clearly seen by the prophetess, to be formed before probation closes and before the one hundred and forty-four thousand are sealed.

Furfuridda xaqiiqooyinkan nebiyadeed waa qayb ka mid ah waxa laga rabo in ay fahmaan kuwa damacsan inay ka gudbaan imtixaanka ekaanta bahalka, kaas oo nebiyaddu si cad u aragtay in la samayn doono ka hor xidhitaanka wakhtiga imtixaanka, iyo ka hor intaan la shaabadayn boqolka iyo afartan iyo afarta kun.
