Daniel chapter one, represents the first angel’s message, and chapter two represents the second angel’s message. In prophetic symbolism, the first message is to fear God, the second message is to give God glory and the third message identifies the hour of judgment. Before we get directly into the second chapter of Daniel, a little review is required. The second angel’s message primarily identifies the fall of Babylon.

Daanyeel cutubka koowaad wuxuu matalaa farriinta malaa’igta koowaad, cutubka labaadna wuxuu matalaa farriinta malaa’igta labaad. Astaanta nebiyannimada gudaheeda, farriinta koowaad waa in Ilaah laga cabsado, farriinta labaadna waa in Ilaah ammaan la siiyo, farriinta saddexaadna waxay tilmaantaa saacadda xukunka. Ka hor inta aynaan si toos ah u gelin cutubka labaad ee Daanyeel, dib-u-eegis yar ayaa loo baahan yahay. Farriinta malaa’igta labaad waxay ugu horrayn tilmaantaa dhicitaankii Baabuloon.

> And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Revelation 14:8.

> Markaasaa waxaa raacay malaa’ig kale oo leh, Baabuloon waa dhacday, waa dhacday, magaaladaas weyn; maxaa yeelay quruumaha oo dhan waxay ka cabbisay khamriga cadhada sinadeeda. Muujintii 14:8.

The second angel defines the fall of Babylon as the fact that she made “all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.” Her fall is in response to her committing fornication with all nations. The fornication is brought about through her false doctrines, which are represented as “wine.” The Catholic church is made up of many false teachings, but the false doctrine that is directly associated with her fall, is the false doctrine that produces her “wrath”. That doctrine is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. The Catholic church’s wrath, is her persecution of those she identifies as heretics. Her wrath is accomplished by her fornication with the kings of the earth. Without her connection with, and control over, the kings of the earth, she would not have the ability to persecute those she defines as heretics. Her second fall, is therefore marking the point in the future when she can once again exercise her wrath as she did in the past, that is brought about by her fornication with the kings of the earth. The kings of the earth enter into the unlawful relationship by drinking her lies. The fall of Babylon is announced for the final time in Revelation chapter eighteen.

Malaa’igta labaad waxay qeexaysaa dhicitaankii Baabuloon inuu yahay xaqiiqda ah inay “quruumaha oo dhan ka cabbisay khamriga cadhada sinoheeda.” Dhicitaankeedu waa jawaabta ka dhalatay inay sino la samaysay quruumaha oo dhan. Sinadaasi waxaa lagu keenay caqiidooyinkeeda beenta ah, kuwaas oo loo metelay “khamri.” Kaniisadda Katooligga waxay ka kooban tahay waxbariddo been ah oo badan, laakiin caqiidada beenta ah ee si toos ah ula xidhiidha dhicitaankeeda waa caqiidada beenta ah ee dhalisa “cadhadeeda.” Caqiidadaasu waa isku darka kaniisadda iyo dawladda, iyadoo kaniisaddu ay gacanta ku hayso xiriirkaas. Cadhada kaniisadda Katooligga waa silcinteeda ay ku hayso kuwa ay u aqoonsato bidcooleyaal. Cadhadeeda waxaa lagu fuliyaa sino ay la samayso boqorrada dhulka. Iyadoo aan lahayn xiriirkeeda iyo xukunkeeda ay ku leedahay boqorrada dhulka, ma ay yeelan lahayn awood ay ku silciso kuwa ay ku qeexdo bidcooleyaal. Sidaas darteed, dhicitaankeeda labaad wuxuu calaamadaynayaa xilliga mustaqbalka marka ay mar kale awoodi doonto inay fuliso cadhadeeda sidii ay hore u samayn jirtay, taas oo ka dhalanaysa sino ay la samayso boqorrada dhulka. Boqorrada dhulku waxay galaan xiriirkaas sharci-darrada ah iyagoo cabbaya beenteeda. Dhicitaankii Baabuloon waxaa markii ugu dambaysay lagu dhawaaqaa Muujintii cutubka siddeed iyo tobnaad.

> And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. Revelation 18:1–6.

> Oo waxyaalahaas dabadeed waxaan arkay malaa’ig kale oo samada ka soo degaysa, iyadoo leh awood weyn; oo dhulkiina waxaa iftiimiyey ammaanteedii. Oo waxay ku qaylisay cod weyn oo xoog leh, iyadoo leh, Baabuloon tii weynayd way dhacday, way dhacday, oo waxay noqotay hoyga jinniyada, iyo meesha lagu hayo ruux kasta oo wasakh ah, iyo qafiska shimbir kasta oo aan nadiif ahayn oo la karahsan yahay. Waayo, quruumaha oo dhammu waxay ka cabbeen khamriga cadhada sinadeeda, oo boqorradii dhulkuna iyada ayay la sinaysteen, oo baayacmushtariyadii dhulkuna waxay ku taajireen badnaanta raaxadeeda. Oo waxaan maqlay cod kale oo samada ka yimid, isagoo leh, Dadkaygow, ka soo baxa iyada, inaydnaan dembiyadeeda qayb uga noqon, iyo inaydnaan belaayooyinkeeda ka qaadan. Waayo, dembiyadeedu waxay gaadheen samada, oo Ilaahna wuu soo xusuustay xumaatooyinkeedii. U abaalguda sida ay idiin abaalgudday, oo laba jibaara sida ay shuqulladeedu yihiin; koobkii ay ka buuxisayna laba jibbaar ugu buuxiya. Muujintii 18:1–6.

The probationary cup of the Catholic church ended in 1798, but she is to repeat the persecution she accomplished in the Dark Ages, during the soon-coming Sunday law crisis.

Koobkii tijaabada ee kaniisadda Katooliga waxa uu dhammaaday 1798, laakiin iyadu waxay mar kale ku celin doontaa silcintii ay fulisay intii lagu jiray Qarniyadii Mugdiga, inta lagu jiro qalalaasaha sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan imanaya.

> Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. Revelation 2:20–22.

> Habase yeeshee, waxaan kugu hayaa waxyaalo yar; waayo, waxaad u oggolaatay naagtaas Yesebeel, oo isu taqaan nebiyad, inay wax barato oo ay addoommadayda ku sasabto inay sino sameeyaan oo ay cunaan waxyaalaha sanamyada loo sadqeeyey. Oo waxaan siiyey iyada waqti ay sinooyinkeeda uga toobad keento; laakiinse ma ay toobad keenin. Bal eeg, waxaan iyada ku tuurayaa sariir, oo kuwa la sinaysta iyadana waxaan ku ridayaa dhib weyn, haddaanay ka toobad keenin falimahooda. Muujintii 2:20–22.

She was given twelve hundred and sixty years to repent and she refused. The three and a half years of drought that led to Mount Carmel, was given to Jezebel to repent, but she also refused. At the soon-coming Sunday law in the United States, the first of the kings of the earth that commit fornication with her in the last days is the United States, the earth beast of Revelation thirteen. It then has filled the cup of its probationary time.

Waxaa la siiyey kun iyo laba boqol iyo lixdan sannadood inay toobad keento, wayna diidday. Saddexdii sano iyo badhkii abaarta ee horseeday Buur Karmel waxaa la siiyey Yesebeel inay toobad keento, iyaduna way diidday. Marka sharciga Axadda ee dhowaan iman doona laga hirgeliyo Maraykanka, kan ugu horreeya boqorrada dhulka ee maalmaha ugu dambeeya la sinaysta iyada waa Maraykanka, bahalka dhulka ee Muujintii 13. Markaasay koobkii wakhtigeeda tijaabada ahayd buuxisay.

> “The greatest and most favored nation upon the earth is the United States. A gracious Providence has shielded this country, and poured upon her the choicest of Heaven’s blessings. Here the persecuted and oppressed have found refuge. Here the Christian faith in its purity has been taught. This people have been the recipients of great light and unrivaled mercies. But these gifts have been repaid by ingratitude and forgetfulness of God. The Infinite One keeps a reckoning with the nations, and their guilt is proportioned to the light rejected. A fearful record now stands in the register of Heaven against our land; but the crime which shall fill up the measure of her iniquity is that of making void the law of God.

> “Qaranka ugu weyn uguna mudan ee dunida dusheeda ku taalla waa Maraykanka. Daryeel naxariis leh ayaa dalkaas gaashaan uga dhigay, oo ku dul shubay barakooyinka ugu dookhsan ee Samada. Halkan kuwa la silciyey oo la dulmiyey waxay ka heleen magangelyo. Halkan waxaa lagu baray rumaysadka Masiixiga isagoo daahirnimadiisa ku sugan. Dadkan waxay ahaayeen kuwa loo hibeeyey iftiin weyn iyo naxariiso aan la qiyaasi karin. Laakiin hadiyadahaa waxaa looga abaalguday mahadnaq la’aan iyo illoobidda Ilaah. Kan Aan Xadidnayn wuxuu quruumaha kula xisaabtamaa xisaab, dembigooduna wuxuu le’eg yahay inta iftiin ah ee ay diideen. Haddaba diiwaan cabsi leh ayaa ka qoran buugga Samada oo ka dhan ah dalkeenna; laakiin dembiga buuxin doona qiyaasta xumaanteeda waa dembiga ah in la buriyo sharciga Ilaah.

> “Between the laws of men and the precepts of Jehovah will come the last great conflict of the controversy between truth and error. Upon this battle we are now entering,—a battle not between rival churches contending for the supremacy, but between the religion of the Bible and the religion of fable and tradition. The agencies which will unite against truth and righteousness in this contest are now actively at work.” Spirit of Prophecy, volume 4, 398.

> “Inta u dhexaysa sharciyada dadka iyo amarrada Rabbiga waxaa iman doona isku dhicii ugu dambeeya ee weyn ee khilaafka u dhexeeya runta iyo qaladka. Dagaalkan ayaynu hadda galaynaa,—dagaal aan u dhexayn kiniisado iska soo horjeeda oo u loollamaya sarraynta, laakiinse u dhexeeya diinta Kitaabka Quduuska ah iyo diinta sheekooyinka mala-awaalka ah iyo caadooyinka. Awoodaha ku midoobi doona runta iyo xaqnimada ka geesta ah murankan ayaa imminka si firfircoon u shaqaynaya.” Spirit of Prophecy, volume 4, 398.

At the Sunday law, the mark of the beast is enforced, thus “making void the law of God.” Before the Sunday law, the image of the beast is formed within the United States. The Sunday law arrives at a point in time, but the formation of the image of the beast is a period of time. That period of time is the prophetic period represented by Daniel’s lifespan as represented by the seventy years of captivity in Daniel chapter one. Those seventy years began with Jehoiakim, symbolizing when the first message was empowered on September 11, 2001, and ended with the making void the law of God, as represented by the “decree” of Cyrus.

Xeerka Axadda, calaamadda bahalka waa la dhaqan-geliyaa, sidaas darteedna “waxaa la burinayaa sharciga Ilaah.” Ka hor xeerka Axadda, sawirka bahalka ayaa lagu sameeyaa gudaha Maraykanka. Xeerka Axaddu wuxuu yimaadaa xilli go’an, laakiin samaysanka sawirka bahalku waa muddo waqti ah. Muddadaas waqti waa muddada nebiyannimo ee uu matalayo cimriga Daanyeel, sida ay u mataleen toddobaatanka sannadood ee maxaabiisnimada ee ku qoran Daanyeel cutubka koowaad. Toddobaatankaas sannadood waxay ku bilaabmeen Yehooyaaqiim, iyagoo astaan u ah markii farriintii kowaad la awoodsiiyey 11 Sebtembar, 2001, waxayna ku dhammaadeen burinta sharciga Ilaah, sida uu u matalayo “amarkii” Kuuros.

The history of Daniel’s prophetic life of seventy years is symbolic of several lines of prophecy. It represents the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. It represents a three-step testing process that is illustrated in the three angels of Revelation fourteen, and represents the structure of the Hebrew word “truth.” It represents the purification of the sons of Levi that is accomplished by the messenger of the covenant. It is represented by Christ twice cleansing the temple. It is represented by the progressive apostasy within Jerusalem in Ezekiel chapters eight and nine. It also represents the history where the image of the beast is formed in the United States.

Taariikhda nolosha nebinnimo ee Daanyeel oo toddobaatan sannadood ah waxay astaan u tahay dhowr khad oo waxsii sheegid ah. Waxay matalaysaa wakhtiga la shaabadeeyo boqol iyo afartan iyo afar kunka. Waxay matalaysaa hab tijaabo oo saddex-tallaabo ah oo lagu muujiyey saddexda malaa’igood ee Muujintii afar iyo toban, waxayna matalaysaa qaab-dhismeedka erayga Cibraaniga ah ee “runta.” Waxay matalaysaa daahirinta wiilasha Laawi ee uu dhammaystiro rasuulka axdiga. Waxaa astaan ahaan u muujiyey Masiixa oo laba jeer macbudka nadiifiyey. Waxaa astaan ahaan u muujisay riddada sii kordhaysa ee Yeruusaalem gudaheeda ku dhacaysa ee ku qoran Yexesqeel cutubyada siddeed iyo sagaal. Waxay sidoo kale matalaysaa taariikhda lagu sameeyo suuradda bahalka gudaha Maraykanka.

The image of the beast is also represented by the fornication of Jezebel with Ahab, the fornication of Herod with Herodias, the golden calf of Aaron’s rebellion, the two counterfeit worship temples of Jeroboam located in Bethel and Dan, the prophets of Baal and the prophets of Ashtaroth in the story of Mount Carmel. The only definition of the image of the beast in the writings of Ellen White is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. That issue of a church ruling over the state is the essence of what the sacred document, which is the Constitution of the United States, was designed to guard against. When the principle of the separation of church and state is discarded by the earth beast at the soon-coming Sunday law, the completed union of church and state in the United States will be accomplished.

Sanamka bahalka waxaa kaloo lagu matalaa sinooyinkii Yesebeel la lahayd Axaab, sinooyinkii Herodos la lahaa Herodiyaas, dibigii dahabka ahaa ee kacdoonkii Haaruun, labadii macbud oo cibaado been-abuur ah oo Yerobocaam ka dhisay Beytel iyo Daan, nebiyadii Bacal iyo nebiyadii Cashtaroodh ee qisadii Buur Karmel. Qeexidda keliya ee sanamka bahalka ee ku jirta qoraallada Ellen White waa isu-keenidda kaniisadda iyo dawladda, iyadoo kaniisaddu ay xukunka ku hayso xiriirkaas. Arrintaas oo ah in kaniisaddu ay dawladdu ka taliso waa dulucda waxa dukumeentiga quduuska ah, kaas oo ah Dastuurka Maraykanka, loo sameeyey inuu ka ilaaliyo. Marka mabda’a kala-soocidda kaniisadda iyo dawladda uu bahalka dhulku ka tago sharciga Axadda ee soo dhow, midowga dhammaystiran ee kaniisadda iyo dawladda ee Maraykanka wuu rumoobi doonaa.

From September 11, 2001 until the Sunday law in the United States there is a visual test, which is based upon students of prophecy recognizing the formation of the image of the beast. We are now at the very end of that process. In the process of forming the image of the beast there are several movements that contribute to the full development at the Sunday law, where the mark of the beast is enforced. There are political movements, religious movements, social movements and financial movements. Notice the events that are referenced in connection with the formation of the image of the beast in the following passage.

Laga bilaabo Sebtembar 11, 2001 ilaa sharciga Axadda ee Maraykanka waxaa jira imtixaan muuqda, kaas oo ku salaysan in ardayda wax sii sheegidda ay gartaan samaysanka ekaanta bahalka. Hadda waxaannu joognaa dhammaadka ugu dambeeya ee hannaankaas. Hannaanka lagu samaynayo ekaanta bahalka gudaheeda waxaa ku jira dhaqdhaqaaqyo dhawr ah oo ka qayb qaata horumarka buuxa ee ka muuqda sharciga Axadda, halkaas oo calaamadda bahalka lagu khasbo. Waxaa jira dhaqdhaqaaqyo siyaasadeed, dhaqdhaqaaqyo diimeed, dhaqdhaqaaqyo bulsheed, iyo dhaqdhaqaaqyo dhaqaale. U fiirsada dhacdooyinka lagu xusay xiriirka ay la leeyihiin samaysanka ekaanta bahalka ee cutubkan soo socda.

> “Already preparations are advancing, and movements are in progress, which will result in making an image to the beast. Events will be brought about in the earth’s history that will fulfill the predictions of prophecy for these last days” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 976.

> “Diyaargarowgii horeba wuu socdaa, dhaq-dhaqaaqyona way socdaan, kuwaas oo ku dambayn doona samaynta ekaanta bahalka. Dhacdooyin baa lagu soo kordhin doonaa taariikhda dunida, kuwaas oo rumoobin doona saadaalladii wax sii sheegidda ee ku saabsan maalmahan ugu dambeeya” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 976.

The formation of the image of the beast involves an advancing preparation that includes “events” and “movements,” both in the plural. The history represented by Daniel’s seventy years of captivity began with Jehoiakim, and ended with the decree of Cyrus. Jesus illustrates the end of a thing with the beginning of a thing, and there is a “decree” that represents the beginning of the period that Daniel’s seventy prophetic years typifies. That “decree” was the USA Patriot Act, which was publicly premised upon the attack of Islam of the third woe. But unlike the dictatorial executive orders of Abraham Lincoln in the Civil War, or Franklin Roosevelt in World War Two, the Patriot Act is still in force, and will most likely be reinforced and strengthened as hostilities with global Islam increase. The executive orders of both the Civil and Second World War ended with the end of hostilities, but there will be no end of hostilities with global Islam, but rather, escalating terror attacks around the world.

Samaysanka suuradda bahalka wuxuu ku lug leeyahay diyaargarow isa soo taraya oo ay ku jiraan “dhacdooyin” iyo “dhaqdhaqaaqyo,” labaduba jamac ahaan. Taariikhda uu matalaysto toddobaatankii sannadood ee maxaabiisnimada ee Daanyeel waxay ka bilaabatay Yehooyaaqiim, waxayna ku dhammaatay amarkii Kuros. Ciise wuxuu ku muujinayaa dhammaadka wax bilowga wax kale, waxaana jira “amar” matalaya bilowga muddada ay toddobaatanka sannadood ee waxsii sheegidda ee Daanyeel astaan u yihiin. “Amarkaas” wuxuu ahaa Xeerka Waddaniyadda ee Maraykanka (USA Patriot Act), kaas oo si cad loogu saleeyey weerarkii Islaamka ee hoogga saddexaad. Laakiin si ka duwan amaradii fulineed ee kelitaliska ahaa ee Abraham Lincoln intii lagu jiray Dagaalkii Sokeeye, ama Franklin Roosevelt intii lagu jiray Dagaalkii Labaad ee Adduunka, Xeerka Patriot weli waa dhaqan, waxaana aad u badan in la sii xoojiyo oo la adkeeyo marka colaadaha lala jiro Islaamka caalamiga ahi sii kordhaan. Amaradii fulineed ee labadaba Dagaalkii Sokeeye iyo Dagaalkii Labaad ee Adduunku waxay ku dhammaadeen dhammaadka colaadaha, laakiin ma jiri doono dhammaad colaadaha lala jiro Islaamka caalamiga ah, ee beddelkeeda waxaa jiri doona weerarro argagixiso oo sii kordhaya oo dunida oo dhan ka dhaca.

There are two primary legal philosophies within Western culture. English Law and Roman Law. The premise of English Law is that a person is innocent until proven guilty, and the premise of Roman Law is that a person is guilty until proven innocent. The USA Patriot Act is a classic example of Roman Law, and stands in direct opposition to English Law. This is one of those “events” that would be brought about in the formation of the image of the beast. If the United States is going to become the image of Catholicism, Catholic religious and political philosophy would need to be established in the United States in advance of the enforcement of the mark of the beast.

Waxa jira laba falsafadood oo sharciyeed oo asaasi ah oo ku dhex jira dhaqanka reer Galbeedka: Sharciga Ingiriiska iyo Sharciga Rooma. Mabaadi’da Sharciga Ingiriisku waa in qofku yahay aan dembi lahayn ilaa dembigiisa lagu caddeeyo, halka mabaadi’da Sharciga Rooma ay tahay in qofku yahay dembiile ilaa aan dembi lahayntiisa lagu caddeeyo. Xeerka USA Patriot Act waa tusaale caan ah oo ka mid ah Sharciga Rooma, wuxuuna si toos ah uga soo horjeedaa Sharciga Ingiriiska. Tani waa mid ka mid ah “dhacdooyinka” la keeni lahaa marka la samaynayo ekaanta bahalka. Haddii Maraykanku uu noqonayo ekaanta Kaatooligga, falsafadda diineed iyo siyaasadeed ee Kaatooligga waxay u baahnaan lahayd in lagu aasaaso Maraykanka ka hor hirgelinta calaamadda bahalka.

> “This subject is urging itself upon my mind. Consider it; for it is a matter of vast importance. With which of these two classes shall we identify our interest? We are now making our choice, and we shall soon discern between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not. Read the fourth chapter of Malachi, and think about it seriously. The day of God is right upon us. The world has converted the church. Both are in harmony, and are acting upon a short-sighted policy. Protestants will work upon the rulers of the land to make laws to restore the lost ascendency of the man of sin, who sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God. The Roman Catholic principles will be taken under the care and protection of the State. This national apostasy will speedily be followed by national ruin. The protest of Bible truth will be no longer tolerated by those who have made not the law of God their rule of life. Then will the voice be heard from the graves of martyrs, represented by the souls which John saw slain for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ which they held; then the prayer will ascend from every true child of God, ‘It is time, Lord, for thee to work: for they have made void thy law.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, January 1, 1900.

> “Mowduucan ayaa si xoog leh maskaxdayda isu saaray. Ka fiirsada; waayo, waa arrin leh muhiimad aad u weyn. Labadan kooxood kee baynu danteenna ku aqoonsan doonnaa? Hadda ayaynu samaynaynaa doorashadeenna, oo dhowaan ayaynu kala garan doonnaa kan Ilaah u adeega iyo kan aan isaga u adeegin. Akhriya cutubka afraad ee Malaakii, oo si dhab ah uga fiirsada. Maalinta Ilaah aad bay noogu dhowdahay. Dunidu kaniisadda ayay beddeshay. Labaduba is-waafaq bay yihiin, oo waxay ku dhaqmayaan siyaasad aragti-gaaban. Protestants-ku waxay ku hawlgeli doonaan taliyayaasha dalka inay sharciyo sameeyaan si loo soo celiyo awooddii luntay ee ninka dembiga, kaas oo ku fadhiya macbudka Ilaah, isaga oo isa tusaya inuu Ilaah yahay. Mabaadi’da Kaatooligga Roomaanka waxaa la hoos gelin doonaa daryeelka iyo ilaalinta Dawladda. Riddo qaran oo sidan ahi waxaa si dhakhso leh u raaci doonta halaag qaran. Diidmada runta Kitaabka Quduuska ah mar dambe looma dulqaadan doono kuwa aan sharciga Ilaah ka dhigan xeerka noloshooda. Markaas ayaa cod laga maqli doonaa qabuuraha shuhadada, kuwaas oo ay matalayaan nafihii Yooxanaa arkay in loo dilay ereyga Ilaah iyo markhaatifurka Ciise Masiix ee ay haysteen; markaasna ducadu waxay ka kori doontaa ilmo kasta oo run ah oo Ilaah, ‘Waa wakhti, Rabbiyow, inaad wax qabato; waayo, sharcigaagii way buriyeen.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, January 1, 1900.

The previous passage marks the time when “Roman Catholic principles will be taken under the care and protection of the State,” as occurring at the Sunday law. The Sunday law is the end of the symbolic period that began on September 11, 2001. The Patriot Act at the beginning, typifies the Sunday law at the end. Two of the events that are brought about in order to form the image of the beast was the arrival of the third Woe, and the subsequent Patriot Act.

Qoraalkii hore wuxuu calaamadinayaa wakhtiga ay “mabaadi’da Kaatooligga Roomaanku geli doonaan daryeelka iyo ilaalinta Dawladda,” isagoo taas ku dhacaysa sharciga Axadda. Sharciga Axaddu waa dhammaadka muddada astaanta ah ee bilaabatay Sebtembar 11, 2001. Xeerka Patriot Act bilowgii wuxuu tusaale u yahay sharciga Axadda dhammaadka. Laba ka mid ah dhacdooyinka la keenay si loo sameeyo sawirka bahalka waxay ahaayeen imaatinka Hoogga saddexaad, iyo Patriot Act-kii xigay.

The formation of the image of the beast is the test where our eternal destiny will be decided, and it comes in advance of the Sunday law. At the Sunday law our probation as Seventh-day Adventists closes, and it is there that the visible seal is impressed and the ensign uplifted. The formation of the image of the beast occurs before the Sunday law, before the visible sealing, and before the close of probation.

Samaynta ekaanta bahalka waa imtixaanka lagu go’aamin doono masiirkeena weligeed ah, waxayna timaaddaa ka hor sharciga Axadda. Marka la joogo sharciga Axadda, wakhtigii tijaabadeenna innagoo ah Adventist-ka Maalinta Toddobaad wuu xidhmaa, waana halkaas meesha shaabadda muuqata lagu dul saaro oo calankuna kor loogu qaado. Samaynta ekaanta bahalka waxay dhacdaa ka hor sharciga Axadda, ka hor shaabadaynta muuqata, iyo ka hor xidhitaanka wakhtiga tijaabada.

> “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.

> “Rabbi wuxuu si cad ii tusay in sanamkii bahalka la samayn doono ka hor intaan wakhtiga tijaabadu xidhmin; waayo, waa inuu noqdaa imtixaanka weyn ee dadka Ilaah, kaas oo aayahooda weligeed ah lagu go’aamin doono. Mowqifkaagu waa isku dhexyaac is-khilaafaad ah oo sidaas u badan in ay aad u yar yihiin kuwa lagu khiyaanayn doono.

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

> “Muujintii 13 mawduucan si cad baa loogu 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 kulligood oo daacadnimadooda Ilaah ku caddeeyey iyagoo dhawray sharcigiisa, oo diiday inay aqbalaan sabti been-abuur ah, waxay hoos geli doonaan calanka Rabbiga Ilaaha ah ee Yehowah, oo waxay heli doonaan shaabadda Ilaaha nool. Kuwa runta asalkoodu jannada yahay ka tanaasula oo aqbala sabtida Axadda, waxay heli doonaan calaamadda bahalka” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

The period of time for the formation of the image of the beast was represented by Daniel’s seventy years of captivity. Daniel first passed the test of fearing God, by choosing to eat only God’s food. Daniel’s first test was a dietary test. Daniel’s second test was a visual test that occurred at the end of a testing period of ten days of eating God’s diet, as opposed to eating the diet of Babylon. The success of that diet was manifested in Daniel’s physical appearance. The second test is a visual test. The first test is a dietary test. Daniel manifested his faith, and passed the first test, but in the second test, Daniel could not see in advance if he was going to appear “fatter and fairer” than those who ate Babylon’s diet. There are always people who look tremendous, but eat garbage, and there are conscientious health reformers that look like walking death.

Muddadii wakhtiga ee samaysanka suuradda bahalka waxaa metelayey toddobaatankii sannadood ee maxaabiisnimada Daanyeel. Daanyeel wuxuu marka hore ka gudbay imtixaanka ka cabsashada Ilaah, isagoo doortay inuu cuno oo keliya cuntada Ilaah. Imtixaankii ugu horreeyey ee Daanyeel wuxuu ahaa imtixaan cunto. Imtixaankii labaad ee Daanyeel wuxuu ahaa imtixaan muuqaal ah oo dhacay dhammaadka muddo tijaabo ah oo toban maalmood ah oo lagu cunayey cuntada Ilaah, taas oo lid ku ahayd cunidda cuntada Baabuloon. Guusha cuntadaas waxaa lagu muujiyey muuqaalka jireed ee Daanyeel. Imtixaanka labaad waa imtixaan muuqaal ah. Imtixaanka koowaad waa imtixaan cunto. Daanyeel wuxuu muujiyey rumaysadkiisa, wuuna ka gudbay imtixaankii koowaad; hase ahaatee, imtixaanka labaad, Daanyeel hore uma sii arki karin inuu ka soo muuqan doono “ka buurbuuran oo ka qurux badan” kuwii cunay cuntadii Baabuloon. Mar walba waxaa jira dad u muuqda kuwo aad u caafimaad qaba, hase yeeshee cuna cunto qashin ah; waxaana jira kuwo si damiir leh ugu taagan dib-u-habaynta caafimaadka oo u muuqda sida geeri socota.

The exercise of Daniel’s self-discipline and faith in the first test is what carried him through the second test, though the outcome of the second testing period was clouded in “darkness”. The Millerites who ate the little book on August 11, 1840, thereafter glorified God in the proclamation of the Midnight Cry message as the message swept over the land as a tidal wave. The second test is a visual test, which is preceded by a literal and spiritual dietary test and then followed by a prophetic litmus test. The second test requires a visual demonstration of the faith that was professed in the first test.

Ku-dhaqanka is-edbinta iyo iimaanka Daanyeel ee imtixaankii ugu horreeyey ayaa isaga ka gudbiyey imtixaankii labaad, in kastoo natiijadii muddadii labaad ee imtixaanka ay ku dabooshnayd “gudcur”. Milleriyiintii cunay kitaabkii yaraa Agoosto 11, 1840, dabadeedna Ilaah bay ku ammaaneen ku dhawaaqidda farriintii Qayladii Saqda-dhexe, iyadoo farriintu dalka ku dul martay sida hir weyn oo badeed. Imtixaanka labaad waa imtixaan aragti ah, kaas oo ay ka horrayso imtixaan cunto oo dhab ah iyo mid ruuxi ah, dabadeedna uu ka dambeeyo imtixaan nebiyadeed oo lagu kala saaro runta iyo khaladka. Imtixaanka labaad wuxuu dalbanayaa muujin muuqata oo iimaankii lagu qirtay imtixaankii ugu horreeyey.

> Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good report. Hebrews 11:1, 2.

> Haddaba rumaysadku waa aasaaska waxyaalaha la rajaynayo, waana caddaynta waxyaalaha aan la arag. Waayo, taas ayay waayeelladii ku heleen markhaati wanaagsan. Cibraaniyada 11:1, 2.

Daniel chapter two is a visual test, that is only successfully accomplished if the diet that was selected in the first test is actively applied to the testing process.

Cutubka labaad ee Daanyeel waa imtixaan muuqaal ah, kaas oo si guul leh loo dhammaystiri karo keliya haddii cuntadii lagu doortay imtixaankii koowaad si firfircoon loogu dabaqo habka imtixaanka.

> For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2:3, 4.

> Waayo, muujintu weli waxay sugaysaa wakhti la cayimay; laakiinse ugu dambaysta way hadli doontaa, mana ay beenayn doonto. In kastoo ay raagto, sug iyada; maxaa yeelay hubaal way iman doontaa, mana ay daahi doonto. Bal eeg, naftiisa tan kor isu qaadday kuma qummana isaga dhexdiisa; laakiinse kan xaqa ahu rumaysadkiisa ayuu ku noolaan doonaa. Xabaquuq 2:3, 4.

The outcome of the second test is left in darkness in order to demonstrate if the professed faith of the first test was a genuine faith.

Natiijada imtixaanka labaad waxaa lagu reebay gudcur si loo muujiyo in rumaysadkii la qirtay ee imtixaankii koowaad uu ahaa rumaysad dhab ah iyo in kale.

> “The special light given to John which was expressed in the seven thunders was a delineation of events which would transpire under the first and second angels’ messages. It was not best for the people to know these things, for their faith must necessarily be tested. In the order of God most wonderful and advanced truths would be proclaimed. The first and second angels’ messages were to be proclaimed, but no further light was to be revealed before these messages had done their specific work.” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 971.

> “Iftiinka gaarka ah ee Yooxanaa la siiyey, oo lagu muujiyey toddobada onkod, waxay ahayd sawir-faahfaahin ka bixinaysa dhacdooyin dhici lahaa intii ay socdeen farriimaha malaa’igta kowaad iyo tan labaad. Ma ay ahayn waxa ugu habboon in dadku waxyaalahan ogaadaan, waayo rumaysadkooda waa in daruuri ahaan la imtixaamaa. Sida ay tahay nidaamka Ilaah, waxaa la dhawaaqi lahaa xaqiiqooyin ugu yaab badan oo heer sare ah. Farriimaha malaa’igta kowaad iyo tan labaad waa in la naadiyaa, laakiin iftiin kale oo dheeraad ah lama muujinayn ka hor inta aan farriimahani dhammayn hawshooda gaarka ah.” The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary, volume 7, 971.

It is divinely fitting that Daniel chapter two, is based upon an image, for it represents the test of the image of the beast. Those students of prophecy that recognized September 11, 2001 as a fulfillment of prophecy, symbolically ate the hidden book. They were then led back to the old paths of Adventism as they appear on the pioneer 1843 and 1850 Charts. The old paths identified the movement of the first angel, which they then were led to understand represented the movement of the third angel. All the precious revelations that they were led to understand came about by the understanding of the prophetic methodology that they received. That methodology was typified by the methodology of William Miller, that was confirmed when the first message of his history was empowered on August 11, 1840.

Waxaa si rabbaani ah ugu habboon in Daanyeel cutubka labaad uu ku salaysan yahay sanam, waayo wuxuu matalaa imtixaanka sanamka bahalka. Ardayda waxsii sheegidda ee garatay Sebtembar 11, 2001 inay ahayd rumoobid waxsii sheegid, waxay si calaamadaysan u cuneen kitaabka qarsoon. Dabadeedna waxaa dib loogu hoggaamiyey jiddooyinkii hore ee Adventism-ka sida ay uga muuqdaan Jaantusyadii hormuudka ee 1843 iyo 1850. Jiddooyinkii hore waxay aqoonsadeen dhaqdhaqaaqii malaa’igta kowaad, kaas oo markaas lagu hoggaamiyey inay fahmaan inuu matalayey dhaqdhaqaaqii malaa’igta saddexaad. Dhammaan muujinnadii qaaliga ahaa ee lagu hoggaamiyey inay fahmaan waxay ku yimaadeen fahamka habraaca waxsii sheegid ee ay heleen. Habraacaas waxaa tusaale u ahaa habraacii William Miller, kaas oo la xaqiijiyey markii farriintii ugu horraysay ee taariikhdiisa la awoodsiiyey Agoosto 11, 1840.

> “In the year 1840 another remarkable fulfillment of prophecy excited widespread interest. two years before, Josiah Litch, one of the leading ministers preaching the second advent, published an exposition of Revelation 9, predicting the fall of the Ottoman Empire. According to his calculations, this power was to be overthrown . . . on the 11th of August, 1840, when the Ottoman power in Constantinople may be expected to be broken. And this, I believe, will be found to be the case.’

> “Sannadkii 1840 rumoobid kale oo cajiib ah oo nebiyaddu way rumoobtay ayaa kicisay xiise baahsan. Laba sano ka hor, Josiah Litch, oo ka mid ahaa adeegayaashii hormuudka u ahaa ee ku wacdiyi jiray imaatinka labaad, ayaa daabacay sharraxaad ku saabsan Muujintii 9, isagoo sii sheegay dhicitaanka Boqortooyadii Cusmaaniyiinta. Sida ku cad xisaabtiisa, quwaddan waa in la afgembiyaa... 11ka Agoosto, 1840, markaas oo la filan karo in awoodda Cusmaaniyiinta ee Constantinople la jebiyo. Oo tan, waxaan rumaysanahay, waxaa la ogaan doonaa inay sidaas tahay.’”

> “At the very time specified, Turkey, through her ambassadors, accepted the protection of the allied powers of Europe, and thus placed herself under the control of Christian nations. The event exactly fulfilled the prediction. When it became known, multitudes were convinced of the correctness of the principles of prophetic interpretation adopted by Miller and his associates, and a wonderful impetus was given to the advent movement. Men of learning and position united with Miller, both in preaching and in publishing his views, and from 1840 to 1844 the work rapidly extended.” The Great Controversy, 334, 335.

> “Isla waqtigii si gaar ah loo cayimay, Turkigu, isaga oo u maraya safiirradiisa, wuxuu aqbalay ilaalinta quwadaha isbahaystay ee Yurub, sidaasna wuxuu isu geliyey hoos imaanshaha quruumaha Masiixiyiinta ah. Dhacdadu si sax ah ayay u dhammaystirtay wax sii sheegidda. Markii arrintaas la ogaaday, dad tiro badan ayaa ku qancay saxnaanta mabaadi’da fasiraadda wax sii sheegidda ee ay qaateen Miller iyo saaxiibbadiis, waxaana dhaqdhaqaaqii imaatinka lagu siiyey dardar yaab leh. Rag aqoon iyo maqaam leh ayaa Miller kula midoobay labadaba wacdinta iyo daabicidda aragtidiisa, oo laga soo bilaabo 1840 ilaa 1844 shaqadu si degdeg ah ayay u fidday.” The Great Controversy, 334, 335.

When men accepted September 11, 2001, as a fulfillment of prophecy, they were also “convinced of the correctness of the principles of prophetic interpretation adopted by” Future for America. The angel had descended with the hidden book and commanded those that would eat, to eat. The prophetic logic contained within the little book of the Millerite history, and the hidden book of our current history, is required to safely navigate the test of the formation of the image of the beast. But after eating, or assimilation of the prophetic methodology, the student must thereafter manifest a visual confirmation of what he had previously eaten. That act of faith must be manifested by a test which is navigated with an outcome that is “dark”.

Markii dadku aqbaleen Sebtembar 11, 2001, inay tahay rumoobid wax sii sheegid, waxay sidoo kale “ku qanceen saxnaanta mabaadi’da fasiraadda wax sii sheegidda ee ay qaadatay” Future for America. Malaa’igtii waxay la soo degtay kitaabkii qarsoonaa oo waxay ku amartay kuwa cuni doona inay cunaan. Caqiidada wax sii sheegidda ee ku jirta kitaabka yar ee taariikhda Milleriyiinta, iyo kitaabka qarsoon ee taariikhdeenna hadda, ayaa loo baahan yahay si si ammaan ah looga gudbo imtixaanka samaysanka ekaanta bahalka. Laakiin ka dib cunidda, ama la milanka habraaca wax sii sheegidda, ardaygu waa inuu intaas ka dib muujiyo xaqiijin muuqata oo ku saabsan wixii uu hore u cunay. Ficilkaas rumaysadka ahi waa in lagu muujiyaa imtixaan laga gudbo iyadoo natiijadiisu tahay “mugdi”.

The prophetic rules of William Miller in the history of the first angel, combined with the prophetic keys that were established in the history of the third angel, allows students of prophecy to recognize that each of the three angels of Revelation fourteen brought with them a message in a little book that was to be eaten. The methodology they chose to eat allows those students to then see that when the angel of Revelation eighteen descended on September 11, 2001, he had a book that must be eaten in his hand, though it is not directly addressed in chapter eighteen.

Xeerarkii nebinnimada ee William Miller ee taariikhda malaa’igtii kowaad, marka lagu daro furayaashii nebinnimada ee lagu aasaasay taariikhda malaa’igtii saddexaad, waxay u suurtogelisaa ardayda nebinnimada inay gartaan in mid kasta oo ka mid ah saddexda malaa’igood ee Muujintii afar iyo tobnaad uu watay farriin ku jirta kitaab yar oo ay ahayd in la cuno. Habkii ay doorteen inay ku cunaan wuxuu markaas u oggolaanayaa ardaydaas inay arkaan in markii malaa’igtii Muujintii siddeed iyo tobnaad ay soo degtay Sebtembar 11, 2001, ay gacanteeda ku haysay kitaab ay qasab ahayd in la cuno, in kasta oo aan si toos ah looga hadlin cutubka siddeed iyo tobnaad.

The angel had a hidden book in his hand. That prophetic logic is what Daniel represents when he chose to reject Babylonian food. That prophetic logic is what is necessary in order to see the formation of the image of the beast, for though we have been informed that there are “movements” and “events” that will be brought about in forming the image of the beast, we have also been informed that the movement for Sunday legislation is going on in “darkness.” We must have spiritual “night vision goggles” to be able to see their movements in the dark, for it is the formation of the image, but it is formed in “darkness”. It will only be recognized by the prophetic rules that the student of prophecy accepted when he recognized September 11, 2001, as a fulfillment of the arrival of the third Woe.

Malaa’igtii wuxuu gacantiisa ku hayay buug qarsoon. Caqligaas nebiyadeed waa kan Daanyeel matalo markii uu doortay inuu diido cuntadii Baabuloon. Caqligaas nebiyadeedna waa waxa lagama maarmaanka u ah in la arko samaysanka sawirka bahalka, waayo in kastoo naloo sheegay inay jiraan “dhaqdhaqaaqyo” iyo “dhacdooyin” la keeni doono marka la samaynayo sawirka bahalka, haddana waxa kale oo naloo sheegay in dhaqdhaqaaqa sharciyaynta Axadda uu ku socdo “gudcur.” Waa inaynu haysannaa “muraayadaha aragga habeenkii” ee ruuxiga ah si aynu u awoodno inaan ku aragno dhaqdhaqaaqyadooda mugdiga, waayo waa samaysanka sawirka, laakiin waxaa lagu sameeyaa “gudcur.” Waxa keliya oo lagu garan doonaa xeerarka nebiyadeed ee ardayga wax sii sheegidda uu aqbalay markii uu aqoonsaday Sebtembar 11, 2001, inay ahayd rumoobiddii imaatinka Hoogga saddexaad.

> “God has revealed what is to take place in the last days, that His people may be prepared to stand against the tempest of opposition and wrath. Those who have been warned of the events before them are not to sit in calm expectation of the coming storm, comforting themselves that the Lord will shelter His faithful ones in the day of trouble. We are to be as men waiting for their Lord, not in idle expectancy, but in earnest work, with unwavering faith. It is no time now to allow our minds to be engrossed with things of minor importance. While men are sleeping, Satan is actively arranging matters so that the Lord’s people may not have mercy or justice. The Sunday movement is now making its way in darkness. The leaders are concealing the true issue, and many who unite in the movement do not themselves see whither the undercurrent is tending. Its professions are mild and apparently Christian, but when it shall speak it will reveal the spirit of the dragon. It is our duty to do all in our power to avert the threatened danger. We should endeavor to disarm prejudice by placing ourselves in a proper light before the people. We should bring before them the real question at issue, thus interposing the most effectual protest against measures to restrict liberty of conscience. We should search the Scriptures and be able to give the reason for our faith. Says the prophet: ‘The wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.’” Testimonies, volume 5, 452.

> “Ilaah wuxuu muujiyey waxa dhici doona maalmaha ugu dambeeya, si dadkiisu ugu diyaar garoobaan inay ka hor istaagaan duufaanta mucaaradnimada iyo cadhada. Kuwii laga digay dhacdooyinka horyaalla ma aha inay ku fadhiistaan filasho deggan oo ku saabsan duufaanta imanaysa, iyagoo isku qancinaya in Rabbigu kuwa isaga aaminka u ah uu ku hoydin doono maalinta dhibaatada. Waa inaynu noqonnaa sida niman Sayidkood sugaya, ma aha sugitaan caajisnimo leh, balse shaqo daacad ah ku jira, oo leh iimaan aan liicayn. Haatan ma aha wakhti maskaxdeennu ugu mashquusho waxyaalo qiime yar leh. Inta dadku hurdaan, Shayddaanu si firfircoon ayuu wax u habaynayaa si aan dadka Rabbiga loogu helin naxariis ama caddaalad. Dhaqdhaqaaqa Axadda hadda wuxuu ku socdaa gudcur. Hoggaamiyayaashu waxay qarinayaan arrinta dhabta ah, kuwa badanna oo ku biiraya dhaqdhaqaaqa qudhoodu ma arkaan halka ay qulqulka hoose u jihaysan tahay. Sheegashadiisu waa dabacsan yihiin oo muuqaal ahaan Masiixi ah, laakiin marka uu hadlo wuxuu muujin doonaa ruuxa masduulaagga. Waa waajib ina saaran inaan samayno wax kasta oo awooddeenna ku jira si aynu uga hortagno khatarta lagu hanjabayo. Waa inaynu ku dadaalnaa inaan hubka ka dhigno eexda annagoo isu soo bandhigayna dadka hortooda iftiin qumman. Waa inaynu hortooda keennaa su’aasha dhabta ah ee taagan, sidaasna ku dhex gelinayna diidmada ugu waxtarka badan ee ka dhanka ah tallaabooyinka lagu xaddidayo xorriyadda damiirka. Waa inaynu Baabuurka Quduuska ah baadhnaa oo awoodnaa inaan bixino sababta iimaankeenna. Nebigu wuxuu leeyahay: ‘Kuwa sharka lehna shar bay samayn doonaan; oo kuwa sharka lehna midkoodna ma garan doono; laakiin kuwa caqliga leh way garan doonaan.’” Testimonies, volume 5, 452.

Daniel represents the “wise” who can see the movement for Sunday legislation, even though it is going on in “darkness.” He can do so, for he passed the dietary test, before the visual test. The visual test of the formation of the image of the beast takes place in “darkness.”

Daanyeel wuxuu matalaa “kuwa xigmadda leh” ee arki kara dhaqdhaqaaqa xeer-dejinta Axadda, in kastoo ay ku socoto “gudcur.” Wuu sidaas samayn karaa, waayo wuxuu ka gudbay imtixaankii cuntada ka hor imtixaankii aragga. Imtixaanka aragga ee samaysanka sawirka bahalka wuxuu ka dhacaa “gudcur.”

We will begin our consideration of Daniel chapter two as the second angel’s message in the next article.

Waxaan maqaalka xiga ku bilaabi doonnaa ka fiirsashadeenna Daanyeel cutubka labaad sida farriinta malaa’igta labaad.

> And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them. Isaiah 42:16.
