Reasoning from cause to effect is worthless if you define the effect incorrectly, as has been done by Laodicean Adventist historians who pontificate on the circumstances and personalities associated with the 1888 General Conference at Minneapolis. The inspired commentary identifies the event as a repetition of the rebellion of Korah, Dathan and Abiram, which was motivated by the judgment that assigned them to wander in the wilderness for forty years until they died. That same judgment had been pronounced upon Laodicean Adventism.

Sabab ilaa natiijo ka doodiddu wax qiimo ah ma leh haddii natiijada si khaldan loo qeexo, sida ay yeeleen taariikhyahannada Adventist-ka La’odikiya ee hadal-sarraynta ka sameeya duruufihii iyo shakhsiyaadkii la xiriiray Shirweynihii Guud ee 1888 ee Minneapolis. Faallada waxyigu waxyooday waxay dhacdada u aqoonsanaysaa inay ahayd ku-celcelintii caasinnimadii Qorax, Daataan, iyo Aabiiraam, taas oo ay sababtay xukunkii lagu faray inay afartan sannadood cidlada ku dhex warwareegaan ilaa ay ka dhintaan. Isla xukunkaas ayaa lagu dhawaaqay Adventism-ka La’odikiya.

The rebellion included secret discussions where the rebels were in such extreme Laodicean blindness that it prevented them from understanding that God was aware of their closed-door planning and rebellion. As Korah, Dathan and Abiram hid in their tents and made their plans and spread their rebellion against Moses, so too did the ancient men of 1888, hide behind the closed doors of their houses, to plot against Sister White, her son and the chosen messengers. From that point Sister White, Jones and Waggoner were to be attacked.

Kacdoonku waxaa ku jiray wada-hadallo qarsoodi ah, halkaas oo fallaagadu ku jireen indho-la’aantii La’odiikiya ee sidaas u xad-dhaafka ahayd, taas oo ka hor istaagtay inay gartaan in Ilaah ogaa qorshayntoodii iyo kacdoonkoodii ay albaabbada u xirteen. Sida Qorax, Daataan, iyo Abiiraam ugu dhuunteen teendhooyinkooda, una dejiyeen qorshahooda, uguna faafiyeen kacdoonkooda Muuse ka gees ah, sidaas oo kale ayay raggii hore ee 1888 ugu dhuunteen albaabbada xiran ee guryahooda gadaashooda, si ay ugu shirqoolaan Sister White, wiilkeeda, iyo rususha la doortay. Halkaas wixii ka dambeeyey, Sister White, Jones, iyo Waggoner waa in la weeraraa.

The four generations of Adventism progressively grew in its rebellion, as illustrated in Ezekiel chapter eight. The chambers of imagery within the physical temple and human temple had become entrenched with wicked imaginations, and spiritualism settled upon the ancient men who were appointed to protect the people. Leading up to 1888, the ancient men both cast dispersions upon the authority of the Bible and then the Spirit of Prophecy, and in 1884, the open visions ceased. Kellogg’s pantheistic spiritualism began to make its way in the history preceding 1888, and 1888 marks the arrival of the second generation. The Adventist historians may have not recorded the actual historical testimony of the rebellion manifested at the meeting, but according to inspiration the heavenly Watchers “heard every word and registered” the “words in the books of heaven.”

Afarta jiil ee Adventism-ka waxay si tartiib-tartiib ah ugu koreen caasinnimadooda, sida lagu muujiyey Yexesqeel cutubka siddeedaad. Qolalkii sawirrada ee ku dhex yiillay macbudka muuqda iyo macbudka aadanaha ayaa si qoto dheer ugu xididaysmay mala-awaallo shar leh, ruuxiyaduna waxay dul degtay odayaashii hore ee loo doortay inay dadka ilaaliyaan. Intii ka horraysay 1888, odayaashii hore waxay labadaba wax ka sheeggeen awoodda Kitaabka Quduuska ah dabadeedna Ruuxa Waxsii sheegidda, waxaana 1884 joogsaday riyooyinkii furnaa. Ruuxiyaddii pantheistic-ka ahayd ee Kellogg waxay billowday inay jidkeeda ka samaysato taariikhda ka horraysay 1888, 1888-na waxay calaamad u tahay imaatinka jiilka labaad. Taariikh-yahannada Adventist-ku waxaa laga yaabaa inayan diiwaangelin markhaatifurkii taariikheed ee dhabta ahaa ee caasinnimada lagu muujiyey kulanka, laakiin sida ku cad waxyiga Ilaah, Ilaaliyayaashii samadu “eray kasta way maqleen oo way diiwaangeliyeen” “erayadii ku qornaa buugaagta samada.”

The rebellion represented by Ezekiel’s “secret chambers of imagery,” represented an attack upon the true foundations. It represented an attack upon the prophetess and the chosen messengers, and it marked the arrival of spiritualism. In that generation the next major attack was going to be carried out by Satan against the very foundation of William Miller’s foundations.

Kacdoonkii uu matalayey “qolalka qarsoon ee sawirrada” ee Yexesqeel, wuxuu ahaa weerar lagu qaaday aasaaska runta ah. Wuxuu ahaa weerar lagu qaaday nebiyaddii iyo wargeeyayaashii la doortay, wuxuuna calaamadeeyey imaatinka ruuxiyad-beenta. Jiilkaas gudaheeda, weerarka weyn ee xiga wuxuu ahaa mid Shayddaan ku qaadi lahaa saldhigga qudhiisa ee aasaasyadii William Miller.

Miller based the framework of all his prophetic applications upon the understanding that the two desolating powers in Daniel chapter eight, verse thirteen, represented paganism followed by papalism. In 1901, Lewis Conradi, a leader of Laodicean Adventism in Germany, re-introduced the fallen Protestant view that the “the daily” in the book of Daniel represented Christ’s sanctuary ministry.

Miller wuxuu qaab-dhismeedka dhammaan adeegsigii uu waxsii sheegyada ku dabaqay ku saleeyay fahamka ah in labada quwadood ee wax baabbi’iya ee ku xusan Daanyeel cutubka siddeedaad, aayadda saddex iyo tobnaad, ay matalayeen jaahilnimada oo ay raacday baabnimadu. Sannadkii 1901, Lewis Conradi, oo ahaa hoggaamiye ka tirsanaa Adventism-ka Laodikiya ee Jarmalka, wuxuu mar kale soo celiyay aragtidii Protestant-ka dhacday ee ahayd in “the daily” ee ku jirta kitaabka Daanyeel ay matalayso adeegga Masiixa ee macbudka.

During the period of history following the 1888 Minneapolis meeting, the spiritualism of the leader of the health work escalated, alienation continued between leaders as the fallout of the rejection of the message of Jones and Waggoner continued to take its toll. In the beginning of the new century W. W. Prescott, a Laodicean Adventist leader who had received theological credentials from the schools of apostate Protestantism, took up the satanic mantle to promote Conradi’s view of “the daily,” and as is always the case “the victors write the history.”

Intii lagu jiray muddadii taariikhda ee ka dambaysay shirkii Minneapolis ee 1888, ruuxaaniyadda hoggaamiyaha hawsha caafimaadku way sii xoogaysatay, kala fogaanshuhuna wuu sii socday oo u dhexeeyey hoggaamiyeyaasha, maadaama saamayntii ka dhalatay diidmada farriintii Jones iyo Waggoner ay weli sii wadday inay dhibteeda geyso. Bilowgii qarniga cusub, W. W. Prescott, oo ahaa hoggaamiye Adventist La'odikiya ah kana helay aqoonsiyo fiqiyeed dugsiyadii Protestantism-ka riddada ah, ayaa qaatay huwadii Shaydaanka si uu u faafiyo aragtidii Conradi ee “allabariga joogtada ah,” oo sida had iyo jeerba dhacda, “guulaystayaashu taariikhda ayay qoraan.”

The holy angels recorded the true history, but Laodicean Adventism produced a historical position of the controversy over the rejection of the Millerite understanding of “the daily,” that leaves any of the “unlearned” in Laodicean Adventism to believe that the definition of “the daily,” which Sister White identified as coming from “angels that were expelled from heaven,” is actually a true doctrine. During the early years of the twentieth century W. W. Prescott led out in producing a publication titled, The Protestant. The entire premise of the publication was to teach that Miller’s understanding of “the daily” was incorrect, and that apostate Protestantism, where he had obtained his theological credentials, was correct in assigning a satanic symbol to Christ. In that history A. G. Daniells (General Conference President), joined forces with Prescott in the satanic attack against truth, in spite of the fact that Sister White had directly endorsed Miller’s view of “the daily” as correct.

Malaa’igta quduuska ahi waxay diiwaangeliyeen taariikhda runta ah, laakiin Adventism-ka La’odikiya wuxuu soo saaray mowqif taariikheed oo ku saabsan murankii ka dhashay diidmada fahamkii Millerite ee “kan joogtada ah,” kaas oo ka taga qaar kasta oo ka mid ah “kuwa aan wax baran” ee Adventism-ka La’odikiya iyagoo rumaysan in qeexidda “kan joogtada ah,” taas oo Sister White ay sheegtay inay ka timid “malaa’ig laga soo eryay samada,” ay dhab ahaan tahay caqiido run ah. Intii lagu jiray sannadihii hore ee qarnigii labaatanaad W. W. Prescott wuxuu hormuud ka noqday soo saarista daabacaad cinwaankeedu ahaa, The Protestant. Saldhigga guud ee daabacaadda oo dhan wuxuu ahaa in lagu baro in fahamkii Miller ee “kan joogtada ah” uu khalad ahaa, iyo in Protestantism-ka riddaysan, halkaas oo uu ka helay aqoonsigiisii fiqiga, uu ku saxsanaa inuu Masiixa u nisbeeyo astaan shaydaani ah. Taariikhdaas gudaheeda A. G. Daniells (Madaxweynaha Shirka Guud), wuxuu la midoobay Prescott weerarkii shaydaani ee ka dhanka ahaa runta, inkasta oo Sister White ay si toos ah u taageertay aragtidii Miller ee “kan joogtada ah” inay sax ahayd.

> “The Lord showed me that the 1843 chart was directed by his hand, and that no part of it should be altered; that the figures were as he wanted them. That his hand was over and hid a mistake in some of the figures, so that none could see it, until his hand was removed.

> “Rabbigu wuxuu i tusay in shaxdii 1843 uu gacantiisu hagaysay, oo aan qayb ka mid ahna la beddelin; in tirooyinku ahaayeen sida uu doonayay. In gacantiisu ay dul saarnayd oo qarisay qalad ku jiray qaar ka mid ah tirooyinka, si aan ninna u arki karin, ilaa gacantiisa laga qaaday.

> “Then I saw in relation to the ‘Daily,’ that the word ‘sacrifice’ was supplied by man’s wisdom, and does not belong to the text; and that the Lord gave the correct view of it to those who gave the judgment hour cry. When union existed, before 1844, nearly all were united on the correct view of the ‘Daily;’ but since 1844, in the confusion, other views have been embraced, and darkness and confusion has followed.” Review and Herald, November 1, 1850.

> “Markaas waxaan arkay, marka la eego ‘Maalinlaha,’ in erayga ‘allabari’ lagu daray xigmadda dadka, oo aanu ka tirsanayn qoraalka; iyo in Rabbigu siiyey fahamka saxda ah ee arrintaas kuwii bixiyey qayladii saacadda xukunka. Markii midnimo jirtay, ka hor 1844, ku dhowaad dhammaan waxay ku midoobeen fahamka saxda ah ee ‘Maalinlaha;’ laakiin tan iyo 1844, jahawareerka dhexdiisa, waxaa la qaatay aragtiyo kale, waxaana ka dambeeyey gudcur iyo jahawareer.” Review and Herald, November 1, 1850.

At the time of Prescott and Daniells’ attack against the truth of “the daily,” Prescott and Daniells were representing a minority opinion on the subject, and Sister White’s counsel during the controversy towards the two men was that they should shut up, although she said it in more diplomatic terms, such as “in silence is your wisdom.” When she rebuked them for their false view she also emphasized that the subject of “the daily,” was not to be made a test question. The historical revisionists, which revisionism is a historical method that is credited with beginning with the Jesuit order of the Catholic church, have used her statements about “the daily” not being made a test question, in order to prevent an honest evaluation of the doctrine. They misrepresent her statements for they invariably leave out that when she counselled against agitating the subject of “the daily,” she always qualified her statements with statements such as, “at this time,” or “under current circumstances.”

Waqtigii weerarkii Prescott iyo Daniells ee ka dhanka ahaa runta “kan maalinlaha ah,” Prescott iyo Daniells waxay matalayeen aragti ay haysteen tiro yar oo ku saabsan mawduucaas, taladii Sister White ay murankaas dhexdiisa siisayna labada nin waxay ahayd in ay aamuseen, in kastoo ay ku sheegtay erayo ka diblomaasiyad badan, sida “aamusnaantu waa xigmaddiinna.” Markii ay ku canaanatay aragtidoodii qaldanayd ayay sidoo kale adkaysay in mawduuca “kan maalinlaha ah” aan laga dhigin su’aal tijaabo ah. Dib-u-eegayaasha taariikhiga ah, oo dib-u-eegisnimadu tahay hab taariikheed oo lagu tiriyo in uu ka soo bilaabmay ururka Jesuit-ka ee kaniisadda Katooliga, waxay adeegsadeen hadalladeeda ku saabsan in “kan maalinlaha ah” aan laga dhigin su’aal tijaabo ah si ay uga hor istaagaan qiimayn daacad ah oo lagu sameeyo caqiidada. Waxay si qaldan u metelaan hadalladeeda, waayo mar kasta way ka tagaan in markii ay kula talinaysay in aan la kicin mawduuca “kan maalinlaha ah,” ay had iyo jeer hadalladeeda ku xaddidi jirtay weedho sida, “waqtigan,” ama “xaaladaha hadda jira.”

As a prophetess she was trying to rein in an escalating controversy that was on the verge of causing a great division in the church at large, by a minority of persons who thought that because they were leaders they had the authority to promote whatever they determined to be truth. And the Lord, through her influence, kept the satanic work in check, until she died. Then in 1931, a new push to reject the truth of “the daily” was attempted, and ultimately accomplished. Today the true understanding of the definition of “the daily” is the minority understanding in Laodicean Adventism, and under the current circumstances “the daily,” is now most certainly a test question.

Iyadoo ahayd nebiiyad, waxay ku hawllanayd inay xakameyso muran sii xoogaysanayay oo qarka u saarnaa inuu kaniisadda guud ahaan ku keeno kala qaybsanaan weyn, taas oo ay waday koox yar oo dad ah oo u haystay in maadaama ay hoggaamiyeyaal yihiin ay awood u leeyihiin inay faafiyaan wax kasta oo ay iyagu go’aansadaan inay run yihiin. Rabbiguna, isaga oo adeegsanaya saamaynteeda, wuxuu shaqada Shaydaanka ku hayay xannibaad ilaa ay dhimato. Dabadeed 1931, waxaa la isku dayay riixis cusub oo lagu diidayo runta “the daily,” ugu dambayntiina waa lagu guulaystay. Maanta fahamka runta ah ee qeexidda “the daily” waa fahamka ay hayaan koox yar oo ka tirsan Adventism-ka La’odikiya, duruufaha hadda jirana “the daily” hubaal waxay hadda tahay su’aal imtixaan ah.

When the majority opinion held the true understanding it was not a test, but when any truth is defined as error, it is then a test. When the compilation of manuscripts that is titled Manuscript Releases, was published in the 1980’s, or there about, there was then recognized an article that is as direct in its opposition to Prescott and Daniells’ view of “the daily,” as is her endorsement of Miller’s view.

Markii ra’yiga aqlabiyaddu hayey fahamka runta ah, imtixaan ma ahayn; laakiin marka run kasta lagu qeexo qalad, markaasay imtixaan noqotaa. Markii la daabacay ururinta qoraallada-gacmeedka ee cinwaankeedu yahay Manuscript Releases sannadihii 1980-meeyadii, ama ku dhow waqtigaas, waxaa markaas la aqoonsaday maqaal si toos ah uga soo horjeeda aragtidii Prescott iyo Daniells ee “the daily,” sida ay iyadu si cad u taageertay aragtidii Miller.

> “At this stage of our experience we are not to have our minds drawn away from the special light given [us] to consider at the important gathering of our conference. And there was Brother Daniells, whose mind the enemy was working; and your mind and Elder Prescott’s mind were being worked by the angels that were expelled from heaven. Satan’s work was to divert your minds that jots and tittles should be brought in which the Lord did not inspire you to bring in. They were not essential. But this meant much to the cause of truth. And the ideas of your minds, if you could be drawn away to jots or tittles, is a work of Satan’s devising. To correct little things in the books written, you suppose would be doing a great work. But I am charged, Silence is eloquence.

> “Marxaladdan waayo-aragnimadeenna ma aha in maskaxdeennu laga jeediyo iftiinka gaarka ah ee nala siiyey [innaga] si aan uga fiirsanno kulanka muhiimka ah ee shirkeenna. Waxaana halkaas joogay Walaal Daniells, kaas oo maskaxdiisa cadowgu ku hawlanaa; maskaxdaaduna adiga iyo maskaxda Oday Prescottba waxaa ku hawlanaa malaa’igihii samada laga eryay. Hawsha Shaydaanku waxay ahayd inuu maskaxdiinna ka jeediyo si dhibco iyo xarfo yaryar loo soo geliyo, kuwaas oo Rabbigu idinma waxyoon inaad soo gelisaan. Kuwaasu lagama maarmaan ma ay ahayn. Laakiin tani wax badan bay uga dhignayd qaddiyadda runta. Oo fikradaha maskaxdiinna, haddii laydinku jeedin karo dhibco ama xarfo yaryar, taasu waa hawl uu Shaydaanku hindisay. Inaad saxdaan waxyaalo yaryar oo ku jira buugaagta la qoray, waxaad moodaysaan inay taasu ahaan lahayd inaad qabataan hawl weyn. Laakiin waxaa la igu amray, Aamusnaantu waa hadal-karin.”

> “I am to say, Stop your picking flaws. If this purpose of the devil could only be carried out, then [it] appears to you [that] your work would be considered as most wonderful in conception. It was the enemy’s plan to get all the supposed objectionable features where all classes of minds did not agree.

> “Waa inaan idhaahdaa, Joojiya raadinta ceebaha. Haddii ujeeddadan Ibliisku uun suuragelin lahaa in la fuliyo, markaas waxay idiin muuqan lahayd in shaqadiinnu loo tixgelin lahaa mid ugu yaabka badan xagga hindisaha. Waxay ahayd qorshihii cadowga in dhammaan astaamaha loo maleeyay in lagu diidi karo la geeyo meel aan dhammaan dabaqadaha maanku ku wada raacsanayn.

> “And what then? The very work that pleases the devil would come to pass. There would be a representation given to the outsiders not of our faith just what would suit them, that would develop traits of character which would cause great confusion and occupy the golden moments which should be used zealously to bring the great message before the people. The presentations upon any subject we have worked upon could not all harmonize, and the results would be to confuse the minds of believers and unbelievers. This is the very thing that Satan had planned that should take place—anything that could be magnified as a disagreement.

> “Haddaba maxaa markaas? Shaqadii qudheeda ee ka farxisa Ibliiska ayaa dhici lahayd. Waxaa dibadda jooga loo soo bandhigi lahaa sawir aan ka turjumayn rumaysadkeenna, ee ah wax si toos ah ugu habboon iyaga, kaas oo horumarin lahaa dabeecado sababi lahaa jahawareer weyn oo mashquulin lahaa daqiiqadaha dahabiga ah ee ay ahayd in si qiiro leh loogu adeegsado in farriinta weyn dadka hortooda loo keeno. Soo-bandhigyada ku saabsan mawduuc kasta oo aynu ka soo shaqaynay dhammaantood isma waafaqi kareen, natiijaduna waxay ahaan lahayd in lagu wareeriyo maskaxda rumaystayaasha iyo kuwa aan rumaysnaynba. Tanu waa isla wixii Shaydaanku qorsheeyey in ay dhacaan—wax kasta oo la buunbuunin karo sidii ismaandhaaf.”

> “Read Ezekiel, chapter 28. Now, here is a grand work, where strange spirits can figure. But the Lord has a work to [be] done to save perishing souls; and the places which Satan, disguised, could fill in, bringing confusion into our ranks, he will do to perfection, and all those little differences will become enlarged, prominent.

> “Akhri Yexesqeel, cutubka 28aad. Haddaba, halkan waxaa yaal hawl weyn oo ay ruuxyo qalaad ka muuqan karaan. Laakiin Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay hawl ay tahay in la qabto si loo badbaadiyo nafaha halaagsamaya; meelahaas oo Shayddaanu, isaga oo is-qarinaya, geli kari lahaa, isagoo jahawareer ku keenaya safafkeenna, isagu si qumman buu u samayn doonaa, oo khilaafaadkaas yaryarna dhammaantood way sii weynaan doonaan, oo muuqda bay noqon doonaan.”

> “And I was shown from the first that the Lord had given neither Elders Daniells nor Prescott the burden of this work. Should Satan’s wiles be brought in, should this “Daily” be such a great matter as to be brought in to confuse minds and hinder the advancement of the work at this important period of time? It should not, whatever may be. This subject should not be introduced, for the spirit that would be brought in would be forbidding, and Lucifer is watching every movement. Satanic agencies would commence his work and there would be confusion brought into our ranks. You have no call to hunt up the difference of opinion that is not a testing question; but your silence is eloquence. I have the matter all plainly before me. If the devil could involve any one of our own people on these subjects, as he has proposed to do, Satan’s cause would triumph. Now the work without delay is to be taken up and not a [difference] of opinion expressed.

> “Waxaana bilowgii lay tusay in Rabbigu culayska shaqadan uusan siin odayaasha Daniells iyo Prescott midna. Miyey tahay in xeeladaha Shayddaanka la soo geliyo, oo “Maalinlaha” tani ay noqoto arrin sidaas u weyn oo loo soo bandhigo si ay maskaxaha u wareeriso oo ay u hor istaagto horumarka shaqada xilligan muhiimka ah? Taasu ma aha inay dhacdo, si kastoo ay ahaataba. Mawduucan waa inaan la soo qaadin, waayo ruuxa la soo gelin lahaa wuxuu ahaan lahaa mid mamnuucaya, Luciferna dhaqdhaqaaq kasta ayuu la socdaa. Wakaaladaha shayddaannimadu waxay bilaabi lahaayeen shaqadiisa, waxaana jahawareer la soo gelin lahaa safafkeenna. Looma aadan yeedhin inaad baadho kala duwanaanshaha ra’yiga ee aan ahayn su’aal imtixaan ah; laakiinse aamusnaantaadu waa codkar. Arrintan oo dhan si cad bay iigu wada taallaa hortayda. Haddii Ibliisku uu mid ka mid ah dadkeenna ku lug gelin karo mawduucyadan, sidii uu ugu talo galay, qaddiyadda Shayddaanka ayaa guulaysan lahayd. Haddaba shaqada waa in dib u dhac la’aan la qabtaa, mana aha in [kala duwanaansho] ra’yi la muujiyo.”

> “Satan would inspire those men who have gone out from us to unite with evil angels and retard our work on unimportant questions, and what rejoicing [there] would be in the camp of the enemy. Press together, press together. Let every difference be buried. Our work now is to devote all our physical and brain-nerve power to put these differences out of the way, and all harmonize. If Satan could with his great unsanctified wisdom be permitted to get the least hold, [he would rejoice].

> “Shayddaan wuxuu ku dhiirrigelin lahaa nimankaas inaga naga baxay inay la midoobaan malaa’igaha sharka leh oo ay dib u dhigaan shaqadeenna iyagoo ku mashquulaya su’aalo aan muhiim ahayn, farxad intee le’egna waxay ka jiri lahayd xerada cadowga. Isku soo dhowaada, isku soo dhowaada. Kala duwanaansho kastaba ha la aaso. Shaqadeennu hadda waa inaan awooddeenna jidheed oo dhan iyo xoogga neerfayaasha maskaxdeenna oo dhan u hurno sidii kala duwanaanshahan jidka looga saari lahaa, oo dhammaan la isu waafaqi lahaa. Haddii Shayddaan loo oggolaan lahaa, xigmaddiisa weyn ee aan quduuska ahayn awgeed, inuu helo xajiskii ugu yaraa, [wuu rayrayn lahaa].”

> “Now, when I saw how you were working, my mind took in the whole situation and the results if you should go forward and give the parties that have left us the least chance to bring confusion into our ranks. Your lack of wisdom would be just what Satan would have it. Your loud proclamation was not under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. I was instructed to say to you that your picking flaws in the writings of men that have been led of God is not inspired of God. And if this is the wisdom that Elder Daniells would give to the people, by no means give him an official position, for he cannot reason from cause to effect. Your silence on this subject is your wisdom. Now, everything like picking flaws in the publications of men who are not alive is not the work God has given any of you to do. For if these men—Elders Daniells and Prescott—had followed the directions given in working the cities, there would have been many, very many, convinced of the truth and converted, able men that [now] are in positions where they never will be reached.

> “Haddaba, markaan arkay sida aad u shaqaynaysay, maskaxdaydu waxay wada gashay xaaladda oo dhan iyo natiijooyinka ka dhalan lahaa haddii aad hore u sii socotaan oo aad siisaan dhinacyadii naga tegay fursadda ugu yar ee ay jahawareer ugu dhex keenaan safafkeenna. Xigmadla’aantiinnu waxay ahaan lahayd isla waxa Shayddaanku doonayo. Ku dhawaaqistiinnii codka dheer lahayn waxyi ka yimid Ruuxa Quduuska ah. Waxaa lay faray inaan idinku idhaahdo in aad cillado ka raadinaysaan qoraallada rag Ilaah hoggaamiyey aanay ka iman waxyi Ilaah. Oo haddii tani tahay xigmadda Oday Daniells dadka siin lahaa, sinnaba ha la siinin xil rasmi ah, waayo ma awoodo inuu sabab iyo natiijo ka garqaato. Aamusnaantiinna arrintan ku saabsan ayaa ah xigmaddiinna. Haddaba, wax kasta oo u eg cillad-raadinta daabacaadaha rag aan noolayn ma aha shaqadii Ilaah idinka midkiinna u dhiibay inuu qabto. Waayo, haddii nimankan—Odayaasha Daniells iyo Prescott—ay raaci lahaayeen tilmaamihii la bixiyey ee ku saabsanaa ka shaqaynta magaalooyinka, waxaa jiri lahaa kuwo badan, aad u badan, oo runta lagu qancin lahaa oo soo jeesan lahaa, rag karti leh oo [hadda] ku jira jagooyin aan weligood lagu gaadhi doonin.”

> “All the world is to be regarded as one great family. And when you have such a fountain of knowledge to draw from, why have you left the world to perish for years with the testimonies given by our Lord Jesus Christ? True religion teaches us to regard every man and woman as a person to whom we can do good.

> “Dunida oo dhan waa in loo arkaa sidii hal qoys oo weyn. Oo markaad haysataan il aqooneed oo sidaas u weyn oo aad ka dhaansan kartaan, maxaad dunida sannado ugu dayseen inay halaagto iyadoo la haysto markhaatifurrihii uu Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix bixiyey? Diinta runta ahi waxay ina baraysaa inaynu nin iyo naag kasta u aragno qof aynu wanaag u samayn karno.

> “This has been in print many years: ‘A Balanced Mind,’ testimony to Elder Andrews. The mind may be cultivated to become a power to know when to speak and what burdens to take up and to bear, for Christ is your teacher. And I feared greatly for you [when I saw you] exalting your wisdom and pursuing a course to bring in differences of opinion. The Lord calls for wise men who can hold their peace when it [is] wisdom for them to do so. If you would be a whole man, you need sanctification through Jesus Christ. Now there is a work just started, and let wisdom be seen in every minister, in every president of [a] conference. But here was a work for you to take hold of years ago where you were needed to lift your voice for this very work. Christ gave all His people special directions what they shall do and the things they shall not do. And there is a little time left us to work out the righteousness of the Lord. You can understand the way of the Lord. I saw your purpose of carrying things after your own devising after you were placed as president. You had thought you would do wonderful things, which would be a work God had not placed in your hands to do. Now, your work is not to oppress but to release every necessity possible if the Lord has accepted you to serve. But you have very early given evidence that wisdom and sanctified judgment have not been manifested by you. You blazed out matters that would not be received unless the Lord should give light.

> “Tanu sannado badan ayay daabacaadda ku jirtay: ‘Maskax Isu-dheellitiran,’ markhaati loo qoray Oday Andrews. Maskaxda waa la tababari karaa si ay u noqoto awood lagu garto goorta la hadlo iyo culaysyada la qaadayo oo la xambaarayo, waayo Masiixu waa Macallinkaaga. Aad baanan kaaga baqay [markaan ku arkay adiga] adigoo xigmaddaada sarraysiinaya oo raacaya jid keenaya kala duwanaansho fikradeed. Rabbigu wuxuu u yeedhayaa niman xigmad leh oo aamusi kara marka ay xigmad u tahay iyaga inay sidaas sameeyaan. Haddaad doonayso inaad noqoto nin dhan, waxaad u baahan tahay quduusaysiin xagga Ciise Masiix. Haatanna waxaa jira hawl hadda uun la bilaabay, oo xigmadna ha ka muuqato adeegaha kasta, madaxweyne kasta oo shir [ah]. Laakiin halkan waxaa kuu yiilay hawl ay ahayd inaad gacanta ku dhigto sannado ka hor, taas oo lagaa baahnaa inaad codkaaga u qaaddo isla hawshan. Masiixu wuxuu dadkiisa oo dhan siiyey tilmaamo gaar ah oo ku saabsan waxa ay samaynayaan iyo waxyaalaha aanay samaynayn. Waxaana inoo hadhay wakhti yar oo aynu ku soo saarno xaqnimada Rabbiga. Waad garan kartaa jidka Rabbiga. Waxaan arkay ujeeddadaada ah inaad waxyaalaha ku waddo sida hindisahaaga gaarka ah ka dib markii laguu dhigay madaxweyne. Waxaad moodday inaad samayn doonto waxyaalo yaab leh, kuwaas oo ahaan lahaa hawl aanu Ilaah gacantaada gelin inaad qabato. Haddaba, hawshaadu ma aha inaad dulmiso, ee waa inaad sii dayso baahi kasta intii suurtagal ah haddii Rabbigu kuu aqbalay inaad adeegto. Laakiin goor hore ayaad bixisay caddayn muujinaysa in xigmad iyo garasho quduus laga dhigay aanay kaa muuqan. Waxaad si kulul u soo bandhigtay arrimo aan la aqbali lahayn in Rabbigu iftiin bixiyo mooyaane.”

> “I have been instructed that such hasty movements should not have [been] made [such] as selecting you as president of the conference even another year. But the Lord forbids any more such hasty transactions until the matter is brought before the Lord in prayer; and as you have had the message come to you that the work of the Lord resting upon the president is a most solemn responsibility, you had no moral right to blaze out as you did upon the subject of the ‘Daily’ and suppose your influence would decide the question. There was Elder Haskell, who has carried the heavy responsibilities, and there is Elder Irwin and several men I might mention who have the heavy responsibilities.

> “Waxaa la i faray in tallaabooyin degdeg ah oo caynkaas ah aan la qaadin, sida in adiga laguu doorto madaxweynaha shirweynaha xataa sannad kale. Laakiin Rabbigu wuu mamnuucayaa macaamil dambe oo sidaas u degdeg ah ilaa arrinku Rabbiga hortiisa lagu keeno tukasho; oo maadaama farriintu kuu timid oo ah in shaqada Rabbiga ee saaran madaxweynaha ay tahay mas’uuliyad aad u weyn oo aad u quduus ah, ma aadan lahayn xuquuq akhlaaqeed oo aad ugu ololayso sidii aad u samaysay mawduuca ‘Daily’-ga oo aad u malayso in saamayntaadu go’aamin doonto arrinta. Waxaa jiray Oday Haskell, kaas oo xambaarsanaa mas’uuliyadaha culus, waxaana jira Oday Irwin iyo dhowr nin oo kale oo aan sheegi karo kuwaas oo haya mas’uuliyado culus.”

> “Where was your respect for the men of age? What authority could you exercise without taking all the responsible men to weigh the matter? But let us now investigate the matter. We must now reconsider whether it is the Lord’s judgment, in the face of the work that has been neglected, of showing your zeal to carry the work even another year. If you should carry the work another year with the help that shall unite with you, there should be a change take place in you and Elder Prescott. And humble your own hearts before God. The Lord will have to see in you a showing of a different experience, for if ever men needed to be reconverted at this present [time], it [is] Elder Daniells and Elder Prescott.

> “Xaggee ku yiil ixtiraamkiinnii raggii da’da ahaa? Amar noocee ah baad adeegsan kartaan adigoon soo kaxaynin dhammaan ragga mas’uulka ah si ay arrinta u miisaamaan? Laakiin aynu hadda arrinta baadhno. Waa inaynu hadda mar kale ka fiirsanno bal inay tani tahay xukunka Rabbiga—iyadoo la eegayo hawshii la dayacay—in lagu muujiyo dadaalkiinna inaad hawsha sii waddaan xataa sannad kale. Haddii aad hawsha sii waddaan sannad kale iyadoo la helayo gargaarka idinla midoobi doona, waa in isbeddel idinku yimaado adiga iyo Odayga Prescott. Oo qalbiyadiinna hortiisa Ilaah ku hoosaysiiya. Rabbigu waa inuu idinku arkaa muujin waayo-aragnimo ka duwan, waayo haddii weligood ay rag u baahdeen in mar kale loo soo jeediyo, wakhtigan xaadirka ah [waa] Odayga Daniells iyo Odayga Prescott.”

> “Seven men should be chosen that are men of wisdom and through the working of the grace of God [give] evidence [of] a reconversion. For any men who are so blinded that they cannot reason from cause to effect, that they would ignore the men who have borne the responsibilities of the work and these presidents of conferences, [that] men [who] carry the work for over two years should be disregarded and such an impulsive consequence take place that men would neglect the very work kept before them for years—work the cities—and no, or but very little, attention [be] given to the old men for counsel, but proclaim the things they choose to give the people, bears its own testimony of the unsafety of the men to be entrusted with such a grand and wonderful work.

> “Waa in la doortaa toddoba nin oo ah niman xigmad leh, oo ku muujiya, iyada oo uu shaqaynayo nimcada Ilaah, caddayn dib‑u‑soo‑noqosho ah. Waayo niman kasta oo sidaas u indho la’ oo aan sabab iyo natiijo ka fikiri karin, oo iska indhatira nimankii qaaday masuuliyadaha hawsha iyo madaxweynayaashan shirarka, oo iska dhega tira in niman hawsha sida u waday in ka badan laba sannadood, isla markaana ay timaaddo cawaaqib degdeg iyo kadis ah oo sidaas ah in nimanku dayacaan hawshii qudheeda ee sannado badan hortooda la dhigay—hawsha magaalooyinka—oo aan, ama si aad u yar, loogu noqon ragga waaweyn talo, balse ay dadka ku dhawaaqaan waxyaalaha ay iyagu doortaan inay siiyaan, arrintaasu iyadaa qudheedu markhaati u ah ammaan‑daridda nimanka lagu aamini karo hawl sidan u weyn oo yaab leh.

> “Christ is not dead. He will never suffer His work to be carried on in this strange way. Let the books alone. If any change is essential, God will have the harmony in that change consistent, but when a message has been entrusted to men with the large responsibilities involved, [God] demands faithfulness that will work by love and purify the soul. Elders Daniells and Prescott both need reconversion. A strange work has come in, and it is not in harmony with the work Christ came to our world to do; and all who are truly converted will work the works of Christ.

> “Masiixu ma dhiman. Isagu marnaba ma oggolaan doono in shuqushiisa sidan yaabka leh lagu sii wado. Kutubta iska daaya. Haddii wax isbeddel ah uu lama huraan yahay, Ilaah wuxuu ku jiri doonaa iswaafajinta isbeddelkaas si waafaqsan, laakiin marka farriin lagu aamino dad wata masuuliyadaha waaweyn ee arrintaas ku jira, [Ilaah] wuxuu dalbanayaa aaminnimo ku shaqayn doonta jacayl oo nafta daahirin doonta. Odayaasha Daniells iyo Prescott labaduba waxay u baahan yihiin dib-u-noqosho dhab ah. Shuqul qalaad ayaa soo galay, mana aha mid waafaqsan shaqadii Masiixu dunideenna ugu yimid inuu qabto; oo kulli kuwa si run ah u soo noqdayna waxay samayn doonaan shuqullada Masiixa.

> “We are everyone [to] work out the work which shall glorify the Father. We have come to the crisis—either to conform to the character of Jesus Christ right in this preparatory time or not attempt [it]. Elder Daniells, [you are not] to feel at liberty to let your voice be heard on high as you have done under similar circumstances. And understand, the president of a conference is not a ruler. He works in connection with the wise men who occupy the position as presidents whom God has accepted. He has not liberty to meddle with the writings in printed books from the pens that God has accepted. They are no longer to bear sway unless they show less of the ruling, dominating power. The crisis has come, for God will be dishonored.

> “Waxaynu dhammaanteen nahay in aynu ka shaqayno hawsha ammaani doonta Aabbaha. Waxaynu nimid xilligii go’aanka—ama in aynu la jaanqaadno dabeecadda Ciise Masiix isla wakhtigan diyaarinta ah, ama aynaan isku dayin [taas]. Walaal Daniells, [ma tihid] inaad isu aragto xorriyad aad codkaaga sare ugu maqashiiso sidaad ku samaysay duruufo la mid ah. Oo garo, madaxweynaha shirku taliye ma aha. Wuxuu ku shaqeeyaa xidhiidh la leh ragga xigmadda leh ee haya jagada madaxweynayaal ahaan kuwaas oo Ilaah aqbalay. Xorriyad uma laha inuu farageliyo qoraallada ku jira buugaagta daabacan ee ka soo baxay qalimaanta kuwa Ilaah aqbalay. Mar dambe looma oggola inay xukun ku sii hayaan haddii aanay muujin yaraynta awoodda xukunka iyo taliska ku dhisan. Wakhtigii go’aanku waa yimid, waayo Ilaah waa la sharaf dhimi doonaa.”

> “How does the Lord look upon the unworked cities? Christ is in heaven. Now its acknowledgment is to be, ‘There is no kingly rule. And now is the crisis of this world. Now I am the Power to save or to destroy. Now is the time when the destiny of all is in My hands. I have given My life to save the world. And “I, if I be lifted up,” the saving grace I shall impart will prove that all who will be fashioned after the divine similitude and will be one with Me shall work as I work with My power of redeeming grace.’ Whoever will, [let him] take hold with his brethren to do the work given them to do when in responsible places under the counsel the Lord gives, and seek most earnestly to work in complete harmony with Him who so loved the world He gave His life a full sacrifice for the saving of the world. I speak to our ministers, that as they enter upon the work in our cities let there be a calm sacredness attending the ministry of the Word. We cannot make the proper impression upon the minds of the people if we . . .

> Sidee ayuu Rabbigu u eegaa magaalooyinka aan laga hawlgelin? Masiixu wuxuu ku jiraa samada. Haatanna qirashadu waa inay noqotaa, “Ma jiro xukun boqornimo. Haatanna waa qalalaasaha dunidan. Hadda anigu waxaan ahay Awoodda wax ku badbaadisa ama wax ku baabbi’isa. Haatanna waa wakhtiga ay masiirka kulli gacmahayga ku jirto. Noloshayda waxaan u bixiyey inaan dunida badbaadiyo. Oo ‘Aniguna, haddii kor la ii qaado,’ nimcada badbaadisa ee aan bixin doono waxay caddayn doontaa in kulli kuwa lagu qaabayn doono ekaanta rabbaaniga ah oo ila mid noqon doona ay u shaqayn doonaan sida aan anigu ugu shaqeeyo xooggayga nimcada furashada leh.” Ku alla kii doonaya, ha la qabsado walaalihiis si ay u qabtaan shaqada loo siiyey inay qabtaan marka ay joogaan meelo masuuliyad leh, iyagoo hoos jooga talada Rabbigu bixiyo, oo ha aad ugu dadaalaan inay ku shaqeeyaan wada-noolaansho kaamil ah Isaga dunida sidaas u jeclaaday oo naftiisa allabari buuxa ugu bixiyey badbaadinta dunida. Waxaan la hadlayaa adeegayaasheenna, in marka ay galaan shaqada magaalooyinkeenna uu jiro xasillooni quduus ah oo la socota adeegidda Erayga.

> “I copy from my Diary. The truth as it is in Jesus—talk it, pray it, believe every word in its simplicity. What would you gain if mistakes are brought before the men who have departed from the faith and given heed to seducing spirits, men who were not long ago with us in the faith? Will you stand on the devil’s side? Give your attention to the unworked fields. A world-wide work is before us. I was given representations of John Kellogg.

> “Waxaan ka soo guurinayaa Buuggeyga Xusuus-qorka. Runta sida ay Ciise ku jirto—ku hadla, ku tukada, eray kasta ku rumaysta fudaydkiisa. Maxaad ku faa’iidaysan lahaydeen haddii khaladaadka loo hor keeno nimankii iimaanka ka tegey oo dheg jalaq u siiyey ruuxyo wax sasaba, niman aan waqti dheer ka hor innaga nala joogin iimaanka? Ma waxaad istaagi doontaan dhinaca Ibliiska? U fiirsada beeraha aan weli laga shaqayn. Shaqo caalami ah ayaa ina hor taal. Waxaa la i siiyey waxyaalo matala Yooxanaa Kellogg.”

> “A very attractive personage was representing the ideas of the specious arguments that he was presenting, sentiments different from the genuine Bible truth. And those who are hungering and thirsting after something new were advancing ideas [so specious] that Elder Prescott was in great danger. Elder Daniells was in great danger [of] becoming wrapped in a delusion that if these sentiments could be spoken everywhere it would be as a new world.

> “Qof aad u soo jiidasho badan ayaa matalayay fikradaha doodihii khiyaanada lahayd ee uu soo bandhigayay, kuwaas oo ahaa aragtiyo ka duwan runta dhabta ah ee Kitaabka Quduuska ah. Kuwii gaajaysnaa oo u harraadsanaa wax cusubna waxay horumarinayeen fikrado [aad u mala-awaal badan] oo Elder Prescott uu khatar weyn ugu jiray. Elder Daniellsna wuxuu ku jiray khatar weyn [oo ah] inuu ku dhex milmo khiyaano ah in haddii fikradahan meel kasta laga sheego ay noqon lahayd sidii adduun cusub.”

> “Yes, it would, but while their minds were thus absorbed I was shown that Brother Daniells and Brother Prescott were weaving into their experience sentiments of a spiritual[istic] appearance and drawing our people to beautiful sentiments that would deceive, if possible, the very elect. I have to trace with my pen [the fact] that these brethren would see defects in their delusive ideas that would place the truth in an uncertainty; and [yet] they [would] stand out as [if they had] great spiritual discernment. Now I am to tell them [that] when I was shown this matter, when Elder Daniells was lifting up his voice like a trumpet in advocating his ideas of the ‘Daily,’ the after results were presented. Our people were becoming confused. I saw the result, and then there were given me cautions that if Elder Daniells without respect to the outcome should thus be impressed and let himself believe he was under the inspiration of God, skepticism would be sown among our ranks everywhere, and we should be where Satan would carry his messages. Set unbelief and skepticism would be sown in human minds, and strange crops of evil would take the place of truth.” Manuscript Releases, volume 20, 17–22.

> “Haa, way ahaan lahayd, laakiin intii maskaxdoodu sidan ku mashquulsanayd ayaa la i tusay in Walaal Daniells iyo Walaal Prescott ay waayo-aragnimadooda ku dhex tolayeen dareenno leh muuqaal ruuxi[yeed], oo ay dadkeenna u jiidayeen dareenno qurux badan oo khiyaamayn lahaa, hadday suurtowdo, xataa kuwa la doortay. Waa inaan qalinkayga ku raadraacaa [xaqiiqda ah] in walaalahani ay ku arki lahaayeen cillado fikradahooda marin-habaabinta ah, cillado runta gelin lahaa hubanti-la’aan; oo [haddana] ay [ahaayeen kuwo] isu taagi lahaa sidii [iyagoo leh] garasho ruuxi ah oo weyn. Haddaba waxaa la ii amray inaan u sheego [in] markii arrintan la i tusay, markuu Oday Daniells codkiisa kor ugu qaaday sidii buun isagoo difaacaya fikradihiisa ku saabsan ‘Joogtada,’ ayaa natiijooyinkii dambe la i horkeenay. Dadkeennii waxay noqdeen kuwo wareersan. Waxaan arkay natiijada, dabadeedna waxaa la i siiyey digniino ah in haddii Oday Daniells, isaga oo aan tixgelinayn natiijada ka dhalanaysa, uu sidan ku qanciyo naftiisa oo isu rumaysto inuu ku hoos jiro waxyiga Ilaah, shaki-diineed lagu dhex abuuri doono safafkeenna meel kasta, oo aynu gaadhi doonno meel uu Shaydaanku farriimihiisa ka gudbin doono. Rumaysadla’aan adag iyo shaki-diineed ayaa lagu beeran doonaa maskaxda aadanaha, oo dalagyo qalaad oo shar ah ayaa beddeli doona runta.” Manuscript Releases, volume 20, 17–22.

The history of the second generation identifies an escalation of rebellion. The spiritualism represented by Ezekiel’s chambers of imagery illustrate that “Brother Daniells and Brother Prescott were weaving into their experience sentiments of a spiritualistic appearance and drawing our people to beautiful sentiments that would deceive, if possible, the very elect.” The spiritualism associated with the false view of “the daily,” is the symbol of what, if possible, would deceive the very elect. She ties together the spiritualism of pantheism that was being promoted by Kellogg with Prescott and Daniells’ push to define “the daily” as Christ’s sanctuary ministry.

Taariikhda jiilka labaad waxay muujinaysaa sii kordhidda fallaagowga. Ruuxnimada lagu matalay qolalka sawirrada ee Yexesqeel waxay tusaale u yihiin in “Walaal Daniells iyo Walaal Prescott ay waayo-aragnimadooda ku dhex tolayeen fikrado leh muuqaal ruuxnimeed, iyagoo dadkeenna u jiidayay fikrado qurux badan oo khiyaamayn lahaa, hadday suurtowdo, xataa kuwa la doortay.” Ruuxnimada la xidhiidha aragtida beenta ah ee “kan maalinlaha ah,” waa astaanta waxa, hadday suurtowdo, khiyaamayn lahaa xataa kuwa la doortay. Iyadu waxay isku xidhaa ruuxnimada pantheism-ka ee Kellogg kor u qaadayay iyo dadaalkii Prescott iyo Daniells ay ku riixayeen in “kan maalinlaha ah” lagu qeexo inuu yahay adeegga Masiixa ee meesha quduuska ah.

She informs them to leave the books alone, by which she was addressing the push by Prescott and Daniells to re-write Uriah Smith’s book, Daniel and the Revelation, in order to remove his teaching that identified “the daily,” just as Miller identified it. The historical revisionists of Laodicea, who Isaiah identifies as “the learned”, have accomplished a wonderful work upon the unlearned of Adventism, for they have misrepresented the testimony of the history to lead those with itching ears and shallow study habits to think that the subject of “the daily,” is unimportant, and that Miller was incorrect on the subject. That work of revision is part of the rubbish Miller was shown that was to be swept away by the dirt brush man, in the time when the manifestation of the power of God in the Midnight Cry is repeated.

Waxay ku wargelinaysaa inay ka daayaan buugaagta sida ay yihiin, taas oo ay uga jeedday dadaalkii Prescott iyo Daniells ay ku doonayeen inay dib ugu qoraan buuggii Uriah Smith, Daniel and the Revelation, si looga saaro waxbaristiisii aqoonsanaysay “the daily,” sida uu Miller isaguna u aqoonsaday. Dib-u-eegayaasha taariikhiga ah ee Laodicea, oo Ishacyaah ku tilmaamo “kuwa aqoonta leh”, waxay shaqo yaab leh ku sameeyeen kuwa aan aqoonta lahayn ee Adventism-ka, waayo, waxay si khaldan u mataleen markhaatifurka taariikhda si ay kuwa dhegaha cuncunaya iyo caadooyinka daraasaddu ku yar tahay ugu hoggaamiyaan inay u maleeyaan in mawduuca “the daily,” aanu muhiim ahayn, iyo in Miller uu ku qaldanaa mawduucaas. Shaqadaas dib-u-eegistu waa qayb ka mid ah qashinkii Miller loo tusay in uu ninka burushka wasakhda leh xaaqi doono, wakhtiga marka muujinta xoogga Ilaah ee Qayladii Saqda Dhexe la soo celiyo.

We will continue our consideration of the second generation of Laodicean Adventism in the next article.

Waxa aynu maqaalka xiga ku sii wadi doonnaa ka fiirsashadeenna ku saabsan jiilka labaad ee Adventism-ka Laodikiya.

> “The message ‘Go forward’ is still to be heard and respected. The varying circumstances taking place in our world call for labor which will meet these peculiar developments. The Lord has need of men who are spiritually sharp and clear-sighted, men worked by the Holy Spirit, who are certainly receiving manna fresh from heaven. Upon the minds of such, God’s Word flashes light, revealing to them more than ever before the safe path. The Holy Spirit works upon mind and heart. The time has come when through God’s messengers the scroll is being unrolled to the world. Instructors in our schools should never be bound about by being told that they are to teach only what has been taught hitherto. Away with these restrictions. There is a God to give the message His people shall speak. Let not any minister feel under bonds or be gauged by men’s measurement. The gospel must be fulfilled in accordance with the messages God sends. That which God gives His servants to speak today would not perhaps have been present truth twenty years ago, but it is God’s message for this time.” The 1888 Materials, 133.

> Farriinta ah, “Hore u socda,” weli waa in la maqlaa oo la ixtiraamaa. Xaaladaha kala duwan ee ka dhacaya dunideenna waxay u baahan yihiin hawl u qalanta horumarradan gaarka ah. Rabbigu wuxuu u baahan yahay rag ruux ahaan fiiqan oo aragti dheer leh, rag uu Ruuxa Quduuska ahi ku shaqeeyo, kuwaas oo hubaal ahaan mannada cusub samada uga helaya. Maskaxda kuwaas oo kale waxaa Erayga Ilaah ka iftiimiya nuur, isaga oo u muujinaya si ka badan sidii hore jidka ammaan ah. Ruuxa Quduuska ahi wuxuu ka shaqeeyaa maskaxda iyo qalbiga. Wakhtigu waa yimid markii, iyada oo loo marayo farriinwadayaasha Ilaah, kitaabka duuban dunida loo furfurayo. Macallimiinta dugsiyadeenna ku jira marnaba yaanay ku xidhnaan in loo sheego in ay baraan oo keliya wixii hore loo baray. Ha la fogeeyo xannibaadahaan. Waxaa jira Ilaah bixiya farriinta ay dadkiisu ku hadli doonaan. Wasiirna yuusan isu arkin mid xadhig ku jira ama lagu qiyaasayo qiyaasta dadka. Injiilku waa in la dhammaystiraa si waafaqsan farriimaha Ilaah soo diro. Waxa Ilaah addoommadiisa maanta siiyo inay ku hadlaan waxaa laga yaabaa in aanay labaatan sannadood ka hor ahayn runta wakhtigan la joogo, laakiin waa farriinta Ilaah ee wakhtigan.” The 1888 Materials, 133.
