We are considering verse forty of Daniel eleven, and are addressing the prophetic line of verse forty, that is associated with the horn of Republicanism. We are basing the application upon the time of the end which arrived in 1989. That line represents the history of 1989 unto the soon-coming Sunday law, and is typified by the prophetic period from 508 to 538, when the papacy was first empowered and enforced a Sunday law at the Council of Orleans. It is also typified by the line from Christ’s birth unto His baptism.

Tunazingatia mstari wa arobaini wa Danieli sura ya kumi na moja, na tunazungumzia mlolongo wa kinabii wa mstari huo wa arobaini, unaohusishwa na pembe ya ujamhuri. Tunategemeza tafsiri hii juu ya wakati wa mwisho uliowasili mnamo 1989. Mlolongo huo unawakilisha historia ya mwaka 1989 hadi sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja karibuni, na unaakisiwa na kipindi cha kinabii cha 508 hadi 538, wakati upapa ulipopata mamlaka kwa mara ya kwanza na kutekeleza sheria ya Jumapili katika Baraza la Orleans. Pia unaakisiwa na mlolongo kutoka kuzaliwa kwa Kristo hadi ubatizo wake.

We are also adding to those lines the line of prophetic history found in verse two of Daniel eleven. There we find that the sixth president of the United States after the time of the end in 1989 is Donald Trump, who according to the verse “stirs up” (awakens), all the realm of Grecia (globalism), in the election of 2016.

Pia tunaongeza kwenye ile mistari mstari wa historia ya kinabii unaopatikana katika aya ya pili ya Danieli sura ya kumi na moja. Hapo tunakuta kwamba rais wa sita wa Marekani baada ya wakati wa mwisho mwaka 1989 ni Donald Trump, ambaye, kulingana na aya hiyo, “anawachochea” (anawaamsha) himaya yote ya Ugiriki (utandawazi), katika uchaguzi wa mwaka 2016.

We then began to consider the prophetic characteristics associated with the three powers which make up the threefold union of the dragon, the beast and the false prophet which together are, since 1989, leading the world to the close of probation, at the battle of the great day of God which is Armageddon. We are considering these prophetic characteristics in order to identify the political attributes of the Republican horn of the earth beast of Revelation thirteen. The two horns of Republicanism and Protestantism were represented with the two horns upon the ram of Medo-Persia, in Daniel chapter eight.

Kisha tukaanza kuzingatia sifa za kinabii zinazohusishwa na nguvu tatu zinazounda muungano wa utatu wa joka, mnyama na nabii wa uongo; ambazo kwa pamoja, tangu 1989, zinaongoza dunia kuelekea kufungwa kwa mlango wa rehema, kwenye vita vya siku kuu ya Mungu ambavyo ni Armagedoni. Tunaangalia sifa hizi za kinabii ili kutambua sifa za kisiasa za pembe ya Urepublicani ya mnyama wa nchi wa Ufunuo sura ya kumi na tatu. Pembe mbili za Urepublicani na Uprotestanti ziliwakilishwa na pembe mbili zilizo juu ya kondoo-dume wa Umedi na Uajemi, katika Danieli sura ya nane.

> Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last. Daniel 8:3.

> Kisha nikainua macho yangu, nikaona, na tazama, mbele ya mto alisimama kondoo mume mwenye pembe mbili; nazo pembe hizo mbili zilikuwa ndefu; lakini moja ilikuwa ndefu kuliko nyingine, na ile iliyokuwa ndefu zaidi ilichipuka baadaye. Danieli 8:3.

Medo-Persia was a twofold power, as was France in the French Revolution, and is the United States. The two horns of the United States are Republicanism and Protestantism, but the earth beast with the two horns changes from a lamb-like beast in its beginning, unto a beast which speaks as a dragon at its ending. The horn’s two prophetic lines run parallel to one another in Daniel chapter eleven verse forty, and when considered together they both begin at the time of the end in 1798. When the horns are investigated individually, the horn of Protestantism is prophetically associated with the time of the end in 1798, and the horn of Republicanism is associated with the time of the end in 1989.

Umedi na Uajemi ilikuwa nguvu ya sehemu mbili, kama ilivyokuwa Ufaransa katika Mapinduzi ya Kifaransa, na ndivyo ilivyo Marekani. Pembe mbili za Marekani ni Ujamhuri na Uprotestanti, lakini mnyama wa nchi mwenye pembe mbili hubadilika kutoka kuwa mnyama afananaye na mwanakondoo mwanzoni mwake, hadi kuwa mnyama asemaye kama joka mwishoni mwake. Mistari miwili ya kinabii ya hizo pembe huenda sambamba katika Danieli sura ya kumi na moja aya ya arobaini, na zinapotazamwa pamoja zote zinaanza wakati wa mwisho mnamo 1798. Pembe hizo zinapochunguzwa kila moja kivyake, pembe ya Uprotestanti inaunganishwa kinabii na wakati wa mwisho mwaka 1798, na pembe ya Ujamhuri inaunganishwa na wakati wa mwisho mwaka 1989.

Both horns have a twofold nature as typified by the Sanhedrin in the time of Christ that was made up of Sadducees and Pharisees. Sadducees were liberals and Pharisees were conservatives, and though they were avowed enemies, they came together against Christ at the cross. At the soon-coming Sunday law both horns of apostate Protestantism and apostate Republicanism will form a church-state relationship against Christ’s faithful seventh-day Sabbath-keepers, but as the two horns proceed through the history of the earth beast, each of the horns have an internal controversy portrayed with the liberalism of the Sadducees and conservatism of the Pharisees.

Pembe zote mbili zina tabia pacha kama ilivyoonyeshwa na Sanhedrini wa wakati wa Kristo, uliojumuisha Masadukayo na Mafarisayo. Masadukayo walikuwa waliberali na Mafarisayo walikuwa wahafidhina, na ingawa walikuwa maadui wa wazi, waliungana dhidi ya Kristo msalabani. Katika sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, pembe zote mbili za Uprotestanti uliopotoka na Urepublikani uliopotoka zitaunda uhusiano wa kanisa na serikali dhidi ya waaminifu wa Kristo wanaoshika Sabato ya siku ya saba, lakini pembe hizo mbili zinaposonga kupitia historia ya mnyama wa nchi, kila moja ya pembe hizo ina mzozo wa ndani unaodhihirishwa kwa uliberali wa Masadukayo na uhafidhina wa Mafarisayo.

We are now considering the horn of Republicanism, and now take note that the Democratic party traces its origins back to the very beginnings of the history of the United States. It was formed in 1828 but had its political origins with Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. According to the testimony of the two horns of Medo-Persia, the Republican party was established in 1854, in opposition to the pro-slavery position of the Democratic party. It therefore was the “higher” horn in Daniel chapter eight, for it was the horn that came up last.

Sasa tunazingatia pembe ya Warepublican, na sasa tambua kwamba Chama cha Democratic hufuatilia asili yake hadi mwanzoni kabisa mwa historia ya Marekani. Kilianzishwa mwaka 1828 lakini asili yake ya kisiasa ilitokana na Thomas Jefferson na James Madison. Kulingana na ushuhuda wa pembe mbili za Umedi na Uajemi, Chama cha Republican kilianzishwa mwaka 1854, kwa kupinga msimamo wa kuunga mkono utumwa wa Chama cha Democratic. Kwa hiyo ilikuwa pembe ‘iliyo juu’ katika Danieli sura ya nane, kwa kuwa ilikuwa pembe iliyochipuka mwisho.

Of the twofold nature of the Republican horn, the Democratic party came up at the first and the Republican party came up last. The issue which produced the Republican party was its anti-slavery position in opposition to the Democratic party’s pro-slavery position. A theme with both horns is either political or spiritual slavery. That is why 1863 became a turning point for both horns. In 1863 the Republican horn pronounced freedom for the slaves, and the Democratic party’s resistance to that freedom produced not only the official Republican party, but also the US Civil War. In 1776 the United States spoke, and rejected the slavery of both the European kings (Statecraft) and the pope (Churchcraft). Then in 1789 the United States spoke as the Constitution went into effect. The earth beast had effectively “swallowed up the flood” of papal and kingly European persecution.

Kuhusu asili ya pande mbili ya pembe ya Republican, Chama cha Democratic kiliibuka kwanza na Chama cha Republican kiliibuka mwisho. Suala lililozalisha Chama cha Republican lilikuwa msimamo wake wa kupinga utumwa, kinyume na msimamo wa Chama cha Democratic wa kuunga mkono utumwa. Dhamira inayopatikana katika pembe zote mbili ni ama utumwa wa kisiasa au wa kiroho. Ndiyo maana mwaka 1863 ukawa hatua ya mgeuko kwa pembe zote mbili. Mwaka 1863 pembe ya Republican ilitangaza uhuru kwa watumwa, na upinzani wa Chama cha Democratic dhidi ya uhuru huo ulizalisha si tu Chama cha Republican rasmi, bali pia Vita vya wenyewe kwa wenyewe vya Marekani. Mnamo 1776 Marekani ilisema, na ikakataa utumwa wa wafalme wa Ulaya (Statecraft) na wa papa (Churchcraft). Kisha mwaka 1789 Marekani ilisema wakati Katiba ilipoanza kutumika. Mnyama wa nchi alikuwa amemeza kwa ufanisi "mafuriko" ya mateso ya kipapa na ya kifalme ya Ulaya.

> And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 12:15–17.

> Naye yule nyoka akatoa katika kinywa chake maji kama mto, akimfuatia yule mwanamke, ili mafuriko yamchukue. Nayo nchi ikamsaidia yule mwanamke; nchi ikafungua kinywa chake, ikayameza mafuriko yale yaliyotoka kinywani mwa yule joka. Nalo joka likamkasirikia yule mwanamke, likakwenda kufanya vita na waliosalia wa uzao wake, wanaozishika amri za Mungu, na walio na ushuhuda wa Yesu Kristo. Ufunuo 12:15-17.

Then at the birth of the United States as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy in 1798, the United States again spoke, and in so doing it placed into the record what the United States will speak at the end, for Jesus always illustrates the end with the beginning. The earth beast is to speak as a dragon at the soon-coming Sunday law, and when it does so, it ceases to be the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. What it spoke in its beginning as a kingdom of Bible prophecy in 1798 represents what it will speak again, when it speaks as a dragon.

Kisha, wakati wa kuzaliwa kwa Marekani kama ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia mnamo 1798, Marekani ikazungumza tena, na kwa kufanya hivyo ikaweka katika kumbukumbu kile ambacho Marekani itazungumza mwishoni, kwa kuwa Yesu daima huonyesha mwisho kwa kutumia mwanzo. Mnyama wa nchi atazungumza kama joka katika sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, na atakapofanya hivyo, ataacha kuwa ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia. Kile ilichokisema katika mwanzo wake kama ufalme wa unabii wa Biblia mwaka 1798 kinaashiria kile itakachosema tena, itakapozungumza kama joka.

The immigration laws of 1798, are referred to as the Alien and Sedition Acts, and were a series of four laws passed by the United States Congress and signed into law by President John Adams in 1798. The laws primarily dealt with issues related to aliens (foreigners) residing in the United States, and they had a significant impact on immigration during that period. The four laws were thus:

Sheria za uhamiaji za mwaka 1798 zinajulikana kama Alien and Sedition Acts, na zilikuwa mfululizo wa sheria nne zilizopitishwa na Bunge la Marekani na kutiwa saini kuwa sheria na Rais John Adams mwaka 1798. Sheria hizo kimsingi zilishughulikia masuala yanayohusiana na wageni (raia wa kigeni) waliokuwa wakiishi Marekani, na zilikuwa na athari kubwa kwa uhamiaji katika kipindi hicho. Sheria hizo nne zilikuwa hivi:

The Naturalization Act of 1798: This law extended the residency requirement for immigrants to become U.S. citizens from five years to fourteen years. It made it more difficult for immigrants to become citizens and participate in the political process.

Sheria ya Uraia ya 1798: Sheria hii iliongeza muda wa makazi unaohitajika kwa wahamiaji ili kuwa raia wa Marekani kutoka miaka mitano hadi miaka kumi na minne. Iliifanya iwe vigumu zaidi kwa wahamiaji kuwa raia na kushiriki katika mchakato wa kisiasa.

The Alien Friends Act: This law allowed the President to deport any non-citizen considered “dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States” during peacetime. It gave the President significant discretion in deporting foreigners.

Sheria ya Wageni Marafiki: Sheria hii ilimruhusu Rais kumfukuza nchini mtu yeyote asiye raia anayechukuliwa kuwa "hatari kwa amani na usalama wa Marekani" wakati wa amani. Ilimpa Rais uhuru mkubwa wa maamuzi katika kuwafukuza nchini raia wa kigeni.

The Alien Enemies Act: This law granted the President the authority to apprehend, detain, and deport any male citizen of a hostile nation during wartime. It was primarily aimed at potential spies or saboteurs from enemy countries.

Sheria ya Maadui Wageni: Sheria hii ilimpa Rais mamlaka ya kuwakamata, kuwashikilia, na kuwafukuza nchini raia yeyote wa kiume wa taifa adui wakati wa vita. Ililenga hasa wale walioweza kuwa wapelelezi au wahujumu kutoka nchi adui.

The Sedition Act: While not directly related to immigration, the Sedition Act made it a crime to publish false, scandalous, or malicious statements against the U.S. government, Congress, or the President with the intent to defame them or bring them into disrepute. It was used to suppress political dissent and criticism.

Sheria ya Uchochozi: Ingawa haihusiani moja kwa moja na uhamiaji, Sheria ya Uchochozi ilifanya kuwa kosa la jinai kuchapisha kauli za uongo, za fedheha, au zenye nia mbaya dhidi ya serikali ya Marekani, Kongresi, au Rais kwa nia ya kuwachafua jina au kuwashusha hadhi. Ilitumika kukandamiza upinzani wa kisiasa na ukosoaji.

The essence of the Alien and Sedition Acts at the beginning of the United States as the sixth kingdom in 1798, identify plainly the intent of Donald Trump and his MAGA supporters. The act was the “first” speaking and when the earth beast speaks as a dragon at its “last,” the laws will be very similar. The fact that the environment of the current history perfectly reflects the logic for these acts to be repeated is Christ’s signature as Alpha and Omega. In the middle of the “speaking” of the earth beast in 1863, was the first Republican president’s Emancipation Proclamation.

Kiini cha Sheria za Wageni na Uchochezi mwanzoni mwa Marekani kama ufalme wa sita mnamo 1798, kinaonyesha wazi dhamira ya Donald Trump na wafuasi wake wa MAGA. Sheria hiyo ilikuwa “usemi” wa kwanza, na wakati mnyama wa nchi atakapoongea kama joka katika “mwisho” wake, sheria zitafanana sana. Ukweli kwamba mazingira ya historia ya sasa yanaakisi kikamilifu mantiki ya kurudiwa kwa sheria hizi ni alama ya Kristo kama Alfa na Omega. Katikati ya “kuongea” kwa mnyama wa nchi mnamo 1863, kulikuwa na Tamko la Ukombozi la rais wa kwanza wa Republican.

The Emancipation Proclamation marked the dead center of the Civil War, and thus the definition of the Hebrew word “truth,” is found in the three waymarks of the earth beast’s speaking. The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is the same as the last letter, and the thirteenth letter is the symbol of rebellion.

Tangazo la Ukombozi liliashiria katikati kabisa ya vita vya wenyewe kwa wenyewe, na hivyo maana ya neno la Kiebrania ‘ukweli,’ hupatikana katika alama tatu za njia za usemi wa mnyama wa nchi. Herufi ya kwanza ya alfabeti ya Kiebrania ni sawa na herufi ya mwisho, na herufi ya kumi na tatu ni ishara ya uasi.

It needs to be considered at this point that 1863, and the rebellion identified there, was also fulfilled in the Laodicean Adventist church represented by the Protestant horn at the same time the Republican horn was manifesting a political rebellion. The twofold nature of the Protestant horn was identified by the transition of the Philadelphian Adventist movement into the Laodicean Adventist church, and the twofold nature of the Republican horn was identified in the controversy between the Democratic party’s pro-slavery position that produced the Republican anti-slavery party and the first Republican president.

Inapaswa kuzingatiwa hapa kwamba mwaka 1863, na uasi uliotambuliwa humo, ulitimia pia katika kanisa la Waadventista wa Laodikia lililowakilishwa na pembe ya Kiprotestanti, wakati huo huo pembe ya Kirepublikan ikidhihirisha uasi wa kisiasa. Tabia ya aina mbili ya pembe ya Kiprotestanti ilitambuliwa kupitia mpito wa harakati ya Waadventista ya Filadelfia kuwa kanisa la Waadventista wa Laodikia, na tabia ya aina mbili ya pembe ya Kirepublikan ilitambuliwa katika mgogoro kuhusu msimamo wa chama cha Democratic wa kuunga mkono utumwa, uliosababisha kuundwa kwa chama cha Republican kinachopinga utumwa na rais wa kwanza wa Republican.

The first Republican president is placed in the middle of the three-step prophetic signature of “truth.” He is therefore the ending of the first period and the beginning of the second period, just as was the cross the ending of the three and a half years of Christ’s personal ministry, and also the beginning of His three and a half years ministry in the person of His disciples. The beginning of His personal ministry was at His baptism, which symbolically represented His death, and that period ended with His death. His death began the ministry of His disciples that ended with the death of His disciple, Stephen.

Rais wa kwanza wa chama cha Republican amewekwa katikati ya alama bainifu ya kinabii yenye hatua tatu ya “ukweli.” Kwa hiyo yeye ndiye mwisho wa kipindi cha kwanza na mwanzo wa kipindi cha pili, kama vile msalaba ulivyokuwa mwisho wa miaka mitatu na nusu ya huduma ya kibinafsi ya Kristo, na pia mwanzo wa miaka mitatu na nusu ya huduma Yake kupitia wanafunzi Wake. Mwanzo wa huduma Yake ya kibinafsi ulikuwa katika ubatizo Wake, ambao kwa mfano uliwakilisha kifo Chake, na kipindi hicho kilimalizika kwa kifo Chake. Kifo Chake kilianzisha huduma ya wanafunzi Wake ambayo ilimalizika kwa kifo cha mwanafunzi Wake, Stefano.

The “speaking” of the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798 was the beginning of a period that ended with the “speaking” of the Emancipation Proclamation. The Emancipation Proclamation marked the beginning of a second period that ends when the United States “speaks” as a dragon. The president that “spoke” in 1863, was the first Republican president, therefore the last president will also be a Republican.

“Kusema” kwa Alien and Sedition Acts mwaka 1798 kulikuwa mwanzo wa kipindi kilichomalizika kwa “kusema” kwa Emancipation Proclamation. Emancipation Proclamation iliashiria mwanzo wa kipindi cha pili ambacho kitaisha wakati Marekani “itakaposema” kama joka. Rais ambaye “alisema” mwaka 1863 alikuwa rais wa kwanza wa chama cha Republican, hivyo rais wa mwisho pia atakuwa Republican.

There are two movements that are produced by the three angels of Revelation chapter fourteen. The first and second angels’ messages were presented by the Millerite movement, which rebelled and became an official Church in 1863. Jesus always illustrates the end of a thing with the beginning of the thing. The movement of the third angel, which is also the mighty angel of Revelation chapter eighteen, is the last of the two movements of the three angels. What began in 1798 as a movement of the true Protestant horn, transitioned into a Church in the rebellion of 1863, and when the history of the earth beast concludes at the soon coming Sunday law, the rebellious Church of 1863 will transition back into an unofficial movement, for what began as a movement ends as a movement.

Kuna vuguvugu viwili vinavyozalishwa na malaika watatu wa Ufunuo sura ya kumi na nne. Ujumbe wa malaika wa kwanza na wa pili uliwasilishwa na vuguvugu la Wamillerite, ambalo liliasi na kuwa Kanisa rasmi mnamo 1863. Yesu daima huonyesha mwisho wa jambo kwa mwanzo wa jambo hilo. Vuguvugu la malaika wa tatu, ambaye pia ni malaika mwenye nguvu wa Ufunuo sura ya kumi na nane, ndilo la mwisho kati ya vuguvugu viwili vya malaika watatu. Kile kilichoanza mwaka 1798 kama vuguvugu la pembe ya kweli ya Kiprotestanti, kiligeuka kuwa Kanisa katika uasi wa 1863, na wakati historia ya mnyama wa nchi itakapokamilika katika sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, Kanisa lililoasi la 1863 litarudi tena kuwa vuguvugu lisilo rasmi, kwa kuwa kile kilichoanza kama vuguvugu huishia kama vuguvugu.

In the transitions of the Protestant horn in the beginning and the ending, a movement changes to a Church, and then back into a movement at the end. In the first transition point, at the beginning, Philadelphia changed to Laodicea, and at the transition point at the ending, Laodicea changes back to Philadelphia.

Katika hatua za mpito za pembe ya Kiprotestanti mwanzoni na mwishoni, harakati hubadilika kuwa Kanisa, kisha mwishoni hurudi kuwa harakati. Katika hatua ya kwanza ya mpito, mwanzoni, Philadelphia ilibadilika kuwa Laodicea, na katika hatua ya mpito ya mwisho, Laodicea inabadilika tena kuwa Philadelphia.

For the Republican horn the transition point was the history leading up to the Civil War, which produced the Republican party. For the Protestant horn the transition point was 1856 to 1863, which was the identical history of transition for the Republican horn. Founded in 1854, the first national convention of the Republican anti-slavery party was in 1856. For the Protestant horn the symbol of rebellion was the legal organization of a Church. For the Republican horn the pro-slavery Democratic party is the symbol of rebellion.

Kwa pembe ya Republican hatua ya mpito ilikuwa historia iliyopelekea Vita vya wenyewe kwa wenyewe, ambayo ilizalisha chama cha Republican. Kwa pembe ya Kiprotestanti hatua ya mpito ilikuwa kati ya 1856 na 1863, ambayo ilikuwa historia ileile ya mpito kwa pembe ya Republican. Chama hicho kilianzishwa mwaka 1854, na mkutano wa kwanza wa kitaifa wa chama cha Republican kinachopinga utumwa ulifanyika mwaka 1856. Kwa pembe ya Kiprotestanti ishara ya uasi ilikuwa uundaji wa kisheria wa Kanisa. Kwa pembe ya Republican chama cha Democratic kinachounga mkono utumwa ndicho ishara ya uasi.

The third angel returned to Kadesh a second time on September 11, 2001 and the transition from Church to movement began in the prophetic structure of the parable of the ten virgins. The first disappointment occurred on July 18, 2020 in the final and perfect fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins, and in the same year the sixth president since the time of the end in 1989, the president who was to “stir up” the realm of Grecia, received a “deadly wound” politically, as did the first Republican president receive a literal deadly wound.

Malaika wa tatu alirudi Kadesh mara ya pili tarehe 11 Septemba 2001 na mpito kutoka Kanisa hadi harakati ulianza katika muundo wa kinabii wa mfano wa wanawali kumi. Kukatishwa tamaa kwa kwanza kulitokea tarehe 18 Julai 2020 katika utimilifu wa mwisho na mkamilifu wa mfano wa wanawali kumi, na katika mwaka huo huo rais wa sita tangu wakati wa mwisho mwaka 1989, rais ambaye alipaswa "kuchochea" ufalme wa Grecia, alipokea "jeraha la mauti" kisiasa, kama vile rais wa kwanza wa chama cha Republican alipokea jeraha la mauti halisi.

The measured outpouring of the latter rain began on September 11, 2001, and it continues to the soon coming Sunday law, where the latter rain then is poured out without measure. The latter rain is the power from above, and Sister White repeatedly identifies that during the time when a power is descending from above, a satanic power will be ascending from beneath. There are three satanic powers in the book of Revelation that ascend from Satan’s bottomless pit. Islam ascended out of the bottomless pit on September 11, 2001, in agreement with the smoke that came from the bottomless pit of the first Woe, in chapter nine.

Kumiminwa kwa kipimo kwa mvua ya baadaye kulianza tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, na kunaendelea hadi sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni, ambapo ndipo mvua ya baadaye itamiminwa bila kipimo. Mvua ya baadaye ni nguvu kutoka juu, na Dada White mara kwa mara anabainisha kwamba wakati ambapo nguvu inashuka kutoka juu, nguvu ya kishetani itakuwa ikipanda kutoka chini. Kuna nguvu tatu za kishetani katika Kitabu cha Ufunuo zinazopanda kutoka katika shimo la kuzimu la Shetani. Uislamu ulipanda kutoka katika shimo la kuzimu tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, sawasawa na moshi uliotoka katika shimo la kuzimu la Ole ya kwanza, katika sura ya tisa.

> And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. Revelation 9:1–4.

> Na malaika wa tano akapiga tarumbeta, nami nikaona nyota iliyoanguka kutoka mbinguni hata nchi; naye akapewa ufunguo wa shimo la kuzimu. Akalifungua shimo la kuzimu; moshi ukapanda kutoka shimoni kama moshi wa tanuru kuu; jua na hewa zikatiwa giza kwa sababu ya moshi wa lile shimo. Na nzige wakatoka katika ule moshi, wakaja juu ya nchi; nao wakapewa nguvu kama vile nge wa nchi walivyo na nguvu. Nao wakaambiwa wasidhuru majani ya nchi, wala kitu chochote kijani, wala mti wowote; bali wale tu watu wasio na muhuri wa Mungu katika paji za nyuso zao. Ufunuo 9:1-4.

When Islam of the third woe arrived on September 11, 2001, as typified by the first woe, it could not hurt those who had the seal of God, thus identifying the beginning of the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The conclusion of the sealing is at the soon coming Sunday law in the United States, which is where the sea beast who had received a deadly wound, and had been forgotten, ascends out of the bottomless pit to become the eighth kingdom which is of the seven.

Uislamu wa ole la tatu ulipowasili tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, kama ulivyowakilishwa na ole la kwanza, haukuweza kuwadhuru wale waliokuwa na muhuri wa Mungu, hivyo ukitambulisha mwanzo wa kutiwa muhuri kwa elfu mia arobaini na nne. Hitimisho la kutiwa muhuri litatimia wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni nchini Marekani, ndipo hapo mnyama wa baharini aliyepokea jeraha la mauti, na ambaye alikuwa amesahauliwa, atakapopanda kutoka katika shimo lisilo na mwisho na kuwa ufalme wa nane, ulio wa wale saba.

> The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. Revelation 17:8.

> Mnyama yule uliyemwona alikuwapo, wala hayupo; naye atapanda kutoka kwenye shimo lisilo na mwisho, aende kwenye maangamizi. Nao wanaokaa duniani watastaajabu—ambao majina yao hayakuandikwa katika Kitabu cha Uzima tangu kuwekwa misingi ya dunia—watakapoona yule mnyama aliyekuwapo, na hayupo, na bado yupo. Ufunuo 17:8.

The prophetic period of the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand began with a power ascending out of the bottomless pit, and it will end with a power that ascends from the bottomless pit. In the middle of that history the beast of atheism, the “woke” dragon power, also ascends out of the bottomless pit to kill the two witnesses. Alpha and Omega placed His signature upon this history.

Kipindi cha kinabii cha kutiwa muhuri kwa wale mia na arobaini na nne elfu kilianza kwa nguvu iliyopanda kutoka katika shimo lisilo na mwisho, na kitamalizika kwa nguvu itakayopanda kutoka katika shimo lisilo na mwisho. Katikati ya historia hiyo, mnyama wa ukanamungu, nguvu ya joka la "woke", pia inapanda kutoka katika shimo lisilo na mwisho ili kuwaua wale mashahidi wawili. Alfa na Omega aliweka sahihi Yake juu ya historia hii.

> And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. Revelation 11:7–11.

> Nao watakapokuwa wamemaliza ushuhuda wao, yule mnyama atokaye katika shimo lisilo na mwisho atawapiga vita, atawashinda, na kuwaua. Nayo miili yao iliyokufa italala katika mtaa wa mji ule mkuu, ambao kiroho unaitwa Sodoma na Misri, mahali ambapo Bwana wetu naye alisulubiwa. Na watu wa makabila, jamaa, lugha, na mataifa wataiona miili yao iliyokufa siku tatu na nusu, wala hawataruhusu miili yao kuwekwa makaburini. Nao wakaao juu ya nchi watafurahi kwa ajili yao, na kushangilia, na kutumiana zawadi wao kwa wao; kwa maana manabii hao wawili waliwatesa wale wakaao juu ya nchi. Na baada ya siku tatu na nusu, Roho ya uhai itokayo kwa Mungu iliingia ndani yao, nao wakasimama juu ya miguu yao; na hofu kuu ikawaangukia wale waliowaona. Ufunuo 11:7-11.

In the year 2020, the Republican and the true Protestant horns were murdered. One by the political dragon power of atheism, and the other by the spiritual dragon power of atheism. They then were dead for a period of time represented as three and a half days, after which they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those represented as the dragon power. The fear that is currently being expressed by the progressive Democrats over the reemergence of the political might of Donald Trump is a fulfillment of prophecy. The “fear” that is being expressed by those who have followed the ministry of Future for America, represents a different type of fear.

Mwaka wa 2020, pembe za Warepublican na za Waprotestanti wa kweli ziliuawa. Moja kwa nguvu ya joka ya kisiasa ya ukanamungu, na nyingine kwa nguvu ya joka ya kiroho ya ukanamungu. Kisha zikawa zimekufa kwa kipindi cha muda kilichoonyeshwa kama siku tatu na nusu, baada ya hapo zikasimama juu ya miguu yao, na hofu kuu ikaangukia wale waliowakilishwa kama nguvu ya joka. Hofu inayodhihirishwa kwa sasa na Wanademokrasia wa mwelekeo wa mageuzi juu ya kuibuka upya kwa nguvu za kisiasa za Donald Trump ni utimilifu wa unabii. "Hofu" inayodhihirishwa na wale walioifuata huduma ya Future for America, inawakilisha aina tofauti ya hofu.

Those who should fear the message of Future for America, are Laodicean Adventists, who were all called to be among the one hundred and forty-four thousand. But as certified Laodiceans, living in the fourth generation, which is the generations of vipers and adulterers, they possess no fear. The fear they need to take hold of is the everlasting gospel which commands men to “fear God, and give Him glory, for the hour of His judgment is come.”

Wale wanaopaswa kuogopa ujumbe wa Future for America ni Waadventista wa Laodikia, ambao wote waliitwa kuwa miongoni mwa elfu mia moja arobaini na nne. Lakini kama Walaodikia waliothibitishwa, wanaoishi katika kizazi cha nne, ambacho ni kizazi cha nyoka na wazinzi, hawana hofu. Hofu wanayohitaji kuishika ni injili ya milele inayowaamuru wanadamu, “mcheni Mungu, na mpeni utukufu, kwa maana saa ya hukumu yake imekuja.”

That hour is the hour of the great earthquake, that occurs when the two witnesses of the one hundred and forty-four thousand are lifted up as an ensign, at the very time the Laodicean Church is spewed out of the mouth of the Lord.

Saa hiyo ndiyo saa ya tetemeko kuu la ardhi, linalotokea wakati mashahidi wawili wa wale mia arobaini na nne elfu wanapoinuliwa kama ishara, wakati huohuo Kanisa la Laodikia linapotapikwa kutoka kinywani mwa Bwana.

> “‘And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.’ [Revelation 11:7, 8.]

> 'Na watakapokwisha kumaliza ushuhuda wao, yule mnyama atokaye kutoka katika shimo lisilo na mwisho atawapiga vita, naye atawashinda na kuwaua. Na miili yao iliyokufa italala katika barabara ya mji ule mkuu, unaoitwa kwa roho Sodoma na Misri, ambako pia Bwana wetu alisulubishwa.' [Ufunuo 11:7, 8.]

> “These events were to take place near the close of the period in which the witnesses testified in sackcloth. Through the medium of the papacy, Satan had long controlled the powers that ruled in Church and State. The fearful results were especially apparent in those countries that rejected the light of the Reformation. There was a state of moral debasement and corruption similar to the condition of Sodom just prior to its destruction, and to the idolatry and spiritual darkness that prevailed in Egypt in the days of Moses.” Spirit of Prophecy, volume 4, 190.

> Matukio haya yalipaswa kutokea karibu na mwisho wa kipindi ambacho mashahidi walitoa ushuhuda wakiwa wamevaa mavazi ya magunia. Kupitia mfumo wa Upapa, Shetani kwa muda mrefu alikuwa amedhibiti mamlaka zilizotawala kanisani na serikalini. Matokeo ya kutisha yalionekana hasa katika nchi zile zilizokataa nuru ya Mageuzi ya Kiprotestanti. Palikuwa na hali ya kuporomoka kwa maadili na ufisadi iliyofanana na hali ya Sodoma kabla tu ya kuangamizwa kwake, na pia ibada ya sanamu na giza la kiroho vilivyotawala Misri katika siku za Musa. Roho ya Unabii, juzuu ya 4, 190.
