From Caesarea Philippi to Caesarea Maritima, with a stop along the way at the Mount of Transfiguration; Peter symbolizes the one hundred and forty-four thousand who arrive at the waymark of the feast of Trumpets in the line constructed upon the two lines of twenty-two verses of Leviticus twenty-three, in conjunction with the Pentecostal season in the time of Christ. Leviticus twenty-three, the cross, Pentecost and Cornelius sending for Peter; are all brought together line upon line with the symbolism of the third, sixth and ninth hours.

Kutoka Kaisaria Filipo hadi Kaisaria Maritima, pamoja na kituo njiani katika Mlima wa Kubadilika Sura; Petro anawakilisha elfu mia moja arobaini na nne wanaofika kwenye alama ya njia ya Sikukuu ya Baragumu katika mfululizo ulioundwa juu ya mifululizo miwili ya aya ishirini na mbili za Mambo ya Walawi ishirini na tatu, kwa uhusiano na majira ya Pentekoste katika wakati wa Kristo. Mambo ya Walawi ishirini na tatu, msalaba, Pentekoste, na Kornelio kumtuma watu kumwita Petro; vyote vinaletwa pamoja mstari juu ya mstari kwa uashiriaji wa saa ya tatu, ya sita na ya tisa.

Christ at the third, sixth and ninth hour at the cross, Peter at the third and ninth hour at Pentecost and Cornelius at the ninth hour, Peter at the sixth hour at Joppa and the third hour at Caesarea Philippi connect with Daniel eleven verses thirteen through fifteen, for Caesarea Philippi is also Panium.

Kristo saa ya tatu, ya sita na ya tisa msalabani; Petro saa ya tatu na ya tisa wakati wa Pentekoste, na Kornelio saa ya tisa; Petro saa ya sita huko Yopa na saa ya tatu huko Kaisaria Filipo, vinahusiana na Danieli sura ya kumi na moja, aya ya kumi na tatu hadi ya kumi na tano, kwa kuwa Kaisaria Filipo pia ni Panium.

Peter was preaching the book of Joel at Pentecost and when Peter presented his message to Cornelius’s household the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles, as it had been poured out upon the Jews at Pentecost. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit for the Jews and thereafter for the Gentiles, typified the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the latter days. The outpouring in the latter days is twofold, beginning with a sprinkling at 9/11 that ultimately progresses to the proclamation of the Midnight Cry that reaches to the Sunday law and then becomes the loud cry of the third angel, where and when the latter rain is poured out without measure.

Petro alikuwa akihubiri kutoka katika kitabu cha Yoeli katika Pentekoste, na Petro alipowasilisha ujumbe wake kwa nyumba ya Kornelio, Roho Mtakatifu alimiminwa juu ya Wamataifa, kama vile alivyokuwa amemiminwa juu ya Wayahudi katika Pentekoste. Kumiminwa kwa Roho Mtakatifu kwanza kwa Wayahudi, na baadaye kwa Wamataifa, kulikuwa kielelezo cha kumiminwa kwa Roho Mtakatifu katika siku za mwisho. Kumiminwa huko katika siku za mwisho ni lenye vipengele viwili, huanza kwa kunyunyiziwa mnamo 9/11, jambo ambalo hatimaye husonga mbele hadi kutangazwa kwa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane, ambalo hufikia sheria ya Jumapili na kisha kuwa Kilio Kikuu cha Malaika wa Tatu, ambapo na wakati huo mvua ya mwisho humiminwa bila kipimo.

> Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow with wine and oil. And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. Joel 2:23–25.

> Basi furahini, enyi wana wa Sayuni, nanyi mshangilie katika Bwana Mungu wenu; kwa maana amewapa mvua ya kwanza kwa kiasi, naye atawanyeshea mvua kwa ajili yenu, mvua ya kwanza na mvua ya mwisho, katika mwezi wa kwanza. Na sakafu za kupuria zitajaa ngano, na mashinikizo yatafurika kwa divai na mafuta. Nami nitawarudishia miaka ile iliyoliwa na nzige, na mdudu, na kiwavi, na paruparu, jeshi langu kuu nililotuma kati yenu. Yoeli 2:23-25.

Peter represents those who participate in the history of the former moderate sprinkling from 9/11 unto the Sunday law, and also the latter rain, which restores the “years” representing the four generations of Laodicean Seventh-day Adventism’s escalating rebellion destroyed. In the temple, at the ninth hour, Peter presented the book of Joel’s restoration of the years.

Petro anawakilisha wale wanaoshiriki katika historia ya unyunyizaji wa awali wa wastani kuanzia 9/11 hadi sheria ya Jumapili, na pia katika mvua ya mwisho, ambayo inarejesha "miaka" inayowakilisha vizazi vinne vya uasi unaoongezeka wa Uadventista wa Sabato wa Laodikia iliyoharibiwa. Hekaluni, saa ya tisa, Petro aliwasilisha urejesho wa miaka uliotangazwa katika kitabu cha Yoeli.

> Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you. And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. Acts 3:19–24.

> Basi tubuni, mrejee, ili dhambi zenu zifutwe, ili nyakati za kuburudishwa zipate kuja kutoka kwa uso wa Bwana; naye atamtuma Yesu Kristo, aliyekwisha kuhubiriwa kwenu; ambaye mbingu yampasa impokee hata zitakapotimia nyakati za kurejeshwa kwa vitu vyote; mambo ambayo Mungu alinena kwa kinywa cha manabii wake watakatifu wote tangu mwanzo wa ulimwengu. Kwa kuwa Musa kwa kweli alisema na baba zetu, Bwana Mungu wenu atawainulieni nabii miongoni mwa ndugu zenu, kama mimi; mtamsikia yeye katika mambo yote, yo yote atakayowaambia ninyi. Na itakuwa, ya kwamba kila nafsi isiyomsikiliza nabii yule itaangamizwa kutoka miongoni mwa watu. Naam, na manabii wote tangu Samweli na wale waliokuja baada yake, wote walionena, walitabiri vivyo hivyo juu ya siku hizi. Matendo ya Mitume 3:19-24.

The blotting out of sins is the final work of Christ in the investigative judgment, and the blotting out begins at the house of God.

Kufutwa kwa dhambi ni kazi ya mwisho ya Kristo katika hukumu ya uchunguzi, na kufutwa huko huanza nyumbani mwa Mungu.

> For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. 1 Peter 4:17–19.

> Kwa maana wakati umefika ambapo hukumu lazima ianze katika nyumba ya Mungu; na ikiwa inaanza kwanza kwetu, mwisho wa wale wasiotii injili ya Mungu utakuwa nini? Na ikiwa mwenye haki anaokolewa kwa shida, asiyemcha Mungu na mwenye dhambi watasimama wapi? Kwa hiyo, wale wanaoteseka kwa kadiri ya mapenzi ya Mungu na wamkabidhi kwake ulinzi wa nafsi zao katika kutenda mema, kama kwa Muumba mwaminifu. 1 Petro 4:17-19.

Peter understood at Pentecost and also at Cornelius’ home in Caesarea by the sea, that the book of Joel was being fulfilled. Pentecost represents the Sunday law when judgment is finished for the house of God, and then moves to the Gentiles. His message at the Sunday law is the same message proclaimed at the arrival of the Midnight Cry. The alpha proclamation is the beginning of the prophetic period that ends with the omega proclamation. Peter represents those who proclaim the message, and the message begins with its empowerment, which is marked by the loosing of the ass of Islam. The ass is loosed to mark the beginning of the Midnight Cry, and it is loosed again at the Sunday law, which is the conclusion of the Midnight Cry.

Petro alielewa katika Pentekoste, na pia nyumbani kwa Kornelio huko Kaisaria kando ya bahari, kwamba kitabu cha Yoeli kilikuwa kinatimia. Pentekoste inawakilisha sheria ya Jumapili, wakati ambao hukumu inakamilishwa juu ya nyumba ya Mungu, na kisha huhamia kwa Wamataifa. Ujumbe wake katika sheria ya Jumapili ni ujumbe uleule uliotangazwa wakati wa kuwasili kwa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane. Tamko la alfa ndilo mwanzo wa kipindi cha kinabii kinachoishia kwa tamko la omega. Petro anawakilisha wale wanaoutangaza ujumbe, na ujumbe huo unaanza kwa kutiwa kwake nguvu, na kutiwa nguvu huko kunatiwa alama na kufunguliwa kwa punda wa Uislamu. Punda huyo hufunguliwa ili kuashiria mwanzo wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane, naye hufunguliwa tena katika sheria ya Jumapili, ambayo ndiyo hitimisho la Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane.

Peter therefore also represents those who made the prediction of Islam’s strike upon the United States. Peter’s message at the Midnight Cry is a correction of the message that marked the first disappointment and the beginning of the tarrying time. Peter therefore represents those who proclaim the message of the Midnight Cry who have passed the first foundational test that arrived in 2024 and concluded May 8, 2025 with the election of the first American pope, in fulfillment of verse fourteen of Daniel eleven.

Hivyo, Petro pia anawakilisha wale waliotoa utabiri wa shambulio la Uislamu dhidi ya Marekani. Ujumbe wa Petro katika Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane ni urekebishaji wa ujumbe uliouashiria kukatishwa tamaa ya kwanza na mwanzo wa kipindi cha kusubiri. Hivyo basi, Petro anawakilisha wale wanaotangaza ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane ambao wamekufaulu jaribio la kimsingi la kwanza lililowadia mwaka 2024 na kukamilika tarehe 8 Mei 2025 kwa kuchaguliwa kwa papa wa kwanza Mmarekani, katika utimilifu wa aya ya kumi na nne ya Danieli kumi na moja.

The period from the feast of Trumpets unto Pentecost is the third and litmus test of the Pentecostal season represented with Leviticus twenty-three. A principle of the three angels that Sister White identified is also simply basic math. She identifies that you cannot have a third message without a first and second. Because Peter preaches the book of Joel at the Pentecostal Sunday law, then he also teaches Joel at the beginning of the proclamation of the message of the Midnight Cry, which is the litmus and third test of the Pentecostal season. Peter therefore represents the faithful during the three-step testing process that began when the Revelation of Jesus Christ was unsealed, beginning on December 31, 2023. If Peter is there at the third step, he must have walked the two previous steps, for you cannot have a third without a first and second.

Kipindi kuanzia Sikukuu ya Panda Baragumu hadi Pentekoste ndicho jaribio la tatu na kipimo cha litmusi cha majira ya Pentekoste, kama yanavyowakilishwa katika Walawi ishirini na tatu. Kanuni ya malaika watatu ambayo Dada White aliitambua pia ni hesabu rahisi tu. Anabainisha kwamba huwezi kuwa na ujumbe wa tatu pasipo wa kwanza na wa pili. Kwa kuwa Petro anahubiri kitabu cha Yoeli wakati wa sheria ya Jumapili ya Kipentekoste, basi pia anafundisha Yoeli mwanzoni mwa kutangazwa kwa ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane, ambacho ndicho jaribio la tatu, yaani kipimo cha litmusi, cha majira ya Pentekoste. Hivyo, Petro anawakilisha waaminifu katika mchakato wa kujaribiwa wa hatua tatu uliyoanza wakati Ufunuo wa Yesu Kristo ulipoondolewa muhuri, kuanzia tarehe 31 Desemba 2023. Ikiwa Petro yupo katika hatua ya tatu, sharti awe amepitia hatua mbili zilizotangulia, kwa maana huwezi kuwa na ya tatu bila ya ya kwanza na ya pili.

The period of the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand began at 9/11 and it opened up a three-step testing process represented by the trumpet call of 9/11 to return to the foundations, and then the test of the first disappointment of July 18, 2020 arrived. The third test of the history is the Sunday law. A prophetic wilderness arrived on July 18, 2020, and within that wilderness period, in July 2023 a “voice” began to cry, and then on December 31, 2023, twenty-two years after 9/11, the unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ began. 2023 unto the Sunday law (when the perfect fulfillment of the 2,300 days is accomplished) identifies the period from 2023 unto the Sunday law as beginning with “23” and ending with “23,” for the closed door on October 22, 1844 typifies the closed door at the Sunday law. The 2300-year prophecy is represented by the “23” in 2,300.

Kipindi cha kutia muhuri wa elfu mia moja na arobaini na nne kilianza mnamo 9/11 na kikafungua mchakato wa majaribio wa hatua tatu uliowakilishwa na mwito wa tarumbeta wa 9/11 wa kurejea katika misingi, kisha jaribio la kukatishwa tamaa la kwanza la Julai 18, 2020 likawadia. Jaribio la tatu katika historia ni sheria ya Jumapili. Mnamo Julai 18, 2020, jangwa la kinabii liliwasili, na ndani ya kipindi hicho cha jangwa, mnamo Julai 2023 “sauti” ilianza kulia, kisha mnamo Desemba 31, 2023, miaka ishirini na miwili baada ya 9/11, kulianza kuondolewa kwa mihuri ya Ufunuo wa Yesu Kristo. Kuanzia 2023 hadi sheria ya Jumapili (wakati utimilifu kamili wa siku 2,300 unapotimizwa) kunatambulisha kipindi hicho kuwa kinaanza kwa “23” na kuishia kwa “23”, kwa kuwa mlango uliofungwa mnamo Oktoba 22, 1844 unatoa kielelezo cha mlango utakaofungwa katika sheria ya Jumapili. Unabii wa miaka 2300 unawakilishwa na “23” katika 2,300.

1844 was the end of the history of the first and second angels. The history began with the arrival of the first angel in 1798, and it ended forty-six years later in 1844. Those forty-six years represent the Millerite temple that Christ suddenly came into in 1844. The human temple is designed upon “23” chromosomes for both male and female, thus marking “23” as a symbol of the work which Christ began in 1844. That work was to combine His divinity with our humanity. Jesus employs the natural world to illustrate the spiritual, and the work that began in 1844, at the conclusion of the 2,300 years is represented by the joining of the “23” male chromosomes with the “23” female chromosomes. When a man marries a woman, they become one flesh, and the marriage is what Christ began in 1844. The closed door of 1844 aligns with the closed door of the Sunday law, and the symbol of that closed door is “23.”

1844 ulikuwa mwisho wa historia ya malaika wa kwanza na wa pili. Historia ilianza kwa kuwasili kwa malaika wa kwanza mnamo 1798, na ikakomea miaka arobaini na sita baadaye mwaka 1844. Miaka hiyo arobaini na sita inawakilisha hekalu la Wamilerite ambalo Kristo aliingia ghafla ndani yake mwaka 1844. Hekalu la mwanadamu limeundwa kwa msingi wa kromosomu “23” kwa jinsia zote mbili, kiume na kike, hivyo kuiweka “23” kuwa ishara ya kazi ambayo Kristo alianza mwaka 1844. Kazi hiyo ilikuwa kuunganisha Uungu Wake na ubinadamu wetu. Yesu hutumia ulimwengu wa asili kufafanua yaliyo ya kiroho, na kazi iliyoanza mwaka 1844, katika hitimisho la miaka 2,300, inawakilishwa na kuunganishwa kwa kromosomu “23” za kiume na kromosomu “23” za kike. Mwanaume anapomuoa mwanamke, wanakuwa mwili mmoja, na hiyo ndoa ndiyo aliyoianzisha Kristo mwaka 1844. Mlango uliofungwa wa 1844 unalingana na mlango uliofungwa wa sheria ya Jumapili, na ishara ya mlango huo uliofungwa ni “23.”

From December 31, 2023 unto the “23” of the Sunday law identifies a period that begins with an alpha “23” and ends with an omega “23.” It also represents the period of the temple of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. That very same history is a fractal of 9/11 unto the Sunday law. 1844 is represented by the number “23,” and it identifies the beginning of the investigative judgment of the dead. 9/11 identifies the beginning of the investigative judgment of the living, and therefore 9/11 also possesses the number “23.” The period of 9/11 unto the Sunday law is a period with an alpha “23” and an omega “23.” 2023 to the Sunday law is a fractal of 9/11 to the Sunday law, and it is where the temple of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is raised. The Millerite temple was a forty-six-year period, but in the latter days, time is no longer; and the Millerite forty-six years in the beginning of Adventism typifies the same period in the ending of Adventism, and that period begins and ends with “23,” producing the Millerite number forty-six.

Kuanzia tarehe 31 Desemba 2023 hadi ile "23" ya sheria ya Jumapili kunatambulisha kipindi kinachoanza kwa "23" ya Alfa na kuishia kwa "23" ya Omega. Kipindi hicho pia kinawakilisha kipindi cha hekalu la mia arobaini na nne elfu. Historia hiyo hiyo ni frakta ya 9/11 hadi sheria ya Jumapili. Mwaka 1844 unawakilishwa na nambari "23," nao unatambulisha mwanzo wa hukumu ya uchunguzi ya wafu. 9/11 hutambulisha mwanzo wa hukumu ya uchunguzi ya walio hai, na kwa hiyo 9/11 pia hubeba nambari "23." Kipindi cha 9/11 hadi sheria ya Jumapili ni kipindi chenye "23" ya Alfa na "23" ya Omega. Mwaka 2023 hadi sheria ya Jumapili ni frakta ya 9/11 hadi sheria ya Jumapili, na ndipo hekalu la mia arobaini na nne elfu linainuliwa. Hekalu la Wamillerite lilikuwa kipindi cha miaka arobaini na sita, lakini katika siku za mwisho, wakati haupo tena; na miaka arobaini na sita ya Wamillerite mwanzoni mwa Uadventista inatoa kielelezo cha kipindi kilekile katika mwisho wa Uadventista, na kipindi hicho kinaanza na kuishia kwa "23," hivyo kikitoa nambari ya Wamillerite arobaini na sita.

All three of those histories represent a three-step testing process (the Millerites, 9/11 unto the Sunday law and 2023 unto the Sunday law). The history began with the trumpet call of Michael, who resurrected Moses and Elijah on December 31, 2023, and when Michael, who is Christ, resurrects, He does so with the sound of a trumpet.

Vipindi hivyo vitatu vya historia vinawakilisha mchakato wa kujaribiwa wa hatua tatu (Wamilleraiti, 9/11 hadi sheria ya Jumapili, na 2023 hadi sheria ya Jumapili). Historia hiyo ilianza kwa sauti ya parapanda ya Mikaeli, aliyewafufua Musa na Eliya tarehe 31 Desemba 2023; na Mikaeli, ambaye ni Kristo, anapofufuka, hufufuka kwa sauti ya parapanda.

> For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first. 1 Thessalonians 4:19.

> Kwa maana Bwana mwenyewe atashuka kutoka mbinguni kwa mwangwi wa amri, kwa sauti ya malaika mkuu, na kwa parapanda ya Mungu: nao waliokufa katika Kristo watafufuka kwanza. 1 Wathesalonike 4:19.

Michael is the archangel, and it is his voice in conjunction with the trump of God that resurrects, and the book of Jude informs us Michael resurrected Moses.

Mikaeli ndiye Malaika Mkuu, na ni sauti yake ikiambatana na parapanda ya Mungu ndiyo inayofufua; na Waraka wa Yuda unatufahamisha kwamba Mikaeli alimfufua Musa.

> Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. Jude 1:9.

> Lakini Mikaeli, malaika mkuu, alipokuwa akishindana na Ibilisi, akibishana naye juu ya mwili wa Musa, hakuthubutu kuleta dhidi yake shutuma ya kumtukana, bali akasema, Bwana na akukemee. Yuda 1:9.

Christ, as Michael the archangel, unsealed the Revelation of Himself on December 31, 2023, when He then resurrected Moses and Elijah, the two witnesses that were slain on July 18, 2020. Then the alpha external foundation test arrived. The angel that descended at 9/11 blew Jeremiah’s trumpet as He called the faithful back to the Millerite foundations, and in parallel with that, the trumpet of Michael introduced the test of the foundations. The test is represented by Daniel 11:14, where “the robbers of thy people” establish the external vision. The Millerites identified that it was Rome that fulfilled the verse, and established the vision.

Kristo, kama Mikaeli malaika mkuu, akauondolea muhuri Ufunuo wa Nafsi Yake tarehe 31 Desemba 2023, alipowafufua Musa na Eliya, wale mashahidi wawili waliouawa tarehe 18 Julai 2020. Ndipo jaribio la msingi wa nje la alfa likafika. Malaika aliyeshuka wakati wa 9/11 alipiga tarumbeta ya Yeremia, akiwaita waaminifu warejee kwenye misingi ya Wamilerite, na sambamba na hilo, tarumbeta ya Mikaeli ilianzisha jaribio la misingi. Jaribio hilo linawakilishwa na Danieli 11:14, ambamo "waporaji wa watu wako" wanathibitisha maono ya nje. Wamilerite walitambua kwamba ilikuwa Roma iliyotimiza aya hiyo, na ikathibitisha maono hayo.

From May 8, 2025, the erection of the temple upon the corner and foundation stone began. Thirty years after 1996—when the message unsealed in 1989 was formally established—the process began to formalize the message unsealed on December 31, 2023.

Kuanzia tarehe 8 Mei 2025, ujenzi wa Hekalu juu ya jiwe la pembe na la msingi ulianza. Miaka thelathini baada ya mwaka 1996—wakati ambapo ujumbe uliotiwa wazi mwaka 1989 uliwekwa rasmi—mchakato wa kuufanya ujumbe uliotiwa wazi tarehe 31 Desemba 2023 uwe rasmi ulianza.

The 1996 formalization of the 1989 message came two hundred and twenty years after its historical subject arrived in 1776. The 2023 unsealing followed twenty-two years after the 1996 formalization was confirmed at September 11, 2001, through the prophetic manifestation of Islam.

Urasimishaji wa mwaka 1996 wa ujumbe wa 1989 ulitokea miaka mia mbili ishirini baada ya mhusika wake wa kihistoria kuwasili mnamo mwaka 1776. Ufunguaji wa muhuri wa mwaka 2023 ulifuata baada ya miaka ishirini na mbili tangu urasimishaji wa 1996 ulipothibitishwa tarehe 11 Septemba 2001, kupitia udhihirisho wa kinabii wa Uislamu.

Peter represents the messengers of this sacred history who pass both the foundation and temple tests. The temple test includes the correction of the failed message of July 18, 2020. Thirty years after the message of 1989 was formalized in 1996, the test of the temple includes the work of correcting and then re-proclaiming the message of an Islamic strike upon Nashville, Tennessee. The formalization of the message of 1989 was represented by the publication of the magazine called the Time of the End in 1996. The magazine covered the last six verses of Daniel eleven, and it identified the Sunday law in the United States. Providentially an inactive ministry that had already been named Future for America years before was given to our ministry, by the previous directors of the ministry who had no light upon the message of 1989.

Petro anawakilisha wajumbe wa historia hii takatifu wanaofaulu mitihani yote miwili ya msingi na ya hekalu. Mtihani wa hekalu unajumuisha kurekebisha ujumbe ulioshindwa wa Julai 18, 2020. Miaka thelathini baada ya ujumbe wa 1989 kurasimishwa mwaka 1996, mtihani wa hekalu unajumuisha kazi ya kurekebisha kisha kutangaza tena ujumbe wa shambulio la Kiislamu dhidi ya mji wa Nashville, Tennessee. Urasimishaji wa ujumbe wa 1989 uliwakilishwa na kuchapishwa kwa jarida linaloitwa Time of the End mwaka 1996. Jarida hilo lilishughulikia mistari sita ya mwisho ya Danieli kumi na moja, nalo lilitambua sheria ya Jumapili katika Marekani. Kwa maongozi ya Mungu, huduma isiyokuwa ikifanya kazi ambayo tayari ilikuwa imepewa jina Future for America miaka kadhaa kabla ilikabidhiwa kwa huduma yetu na wakurugenzi wa awali wa huduma hiyo ambao hawakuwa na nuru juu ya ujumbe wa 1989.

In 1996, our ministry became Future for America, and the publication was published which set forth the message that identified the future of America as represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven. The United States had begun its prophetic rise in 1776, and “22” years later, at the time of the end in 1798, the United States began its role as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, “220” years after 1776. In 1996, the message of the United States in prophecy was formalized. The “220” years from 1776, and the “22” years from that point to 1798 connect with William Miller who presented his first public discourse in 1831, “220” years after the publication of the King James Bible. The beginning and ending of Adventism emphasizes the formalization of the message that is unsealed at the time of the end.

Mwaka 1996, huduma yetu ikawa Future for America, na uchapisho ulitolewa ulioweka bayana ujumbe uliobainisha mustakabali wa Marekani kama unavyowakilishwa katika mistari sita ya mwisho ya Danieli 11. Marekani ilikuwa imeanza kuinuka kinabii mnamo 1776, na baada ya miaka “22”, wakati wa mwisho mnamo 1798, Marekani ikaanza jukumu lake kama ufalme wa sita wa unabii wa Biblia, miaka “220” baada ya 1776. Mwaka 1996, ujumbe wa Marekani katika unabii ulirasimishwa. Miaka “220” kutoka 1776, na miaka “22” kutoka hapo hadi 1798, vinahusiana na William Miller ambaye aliwasilisha mhadhara wake wa kwanza wa hadharani mnamo 1831, miaka “220” baada ya kuchapishwa kwa Biblia ya King James. Mwanzo na mwisho wa Uadventista vinasisitiza urasimishaji wa ujumbe unaofunuliwa wakati wa mwisho.

Thirty years after 1996, in 2026, the test of the temple includes the work of correcting the message of July 18, 2020. Thus, the alpha message of 1989, the message for the final generation that was formalized in 1996, began a period of thirty years that ended with the test to correct and formalize a message. Those thirty years are a symbol of the priesthood of the one hundred and forty-four thousand who will formalize the message of the Midnight Cry. Peter represents those who accomplish that work during the period of the second omega temple test.

Miaka thelathini baada ya 1996, mwaka 2026, mtihani wa hekalu unajumuisha kazi ya kusahihisha ujumbe wa tarehe 18 Julai 2020. Hivyo, ujumbe wa Alfa wa 1989, ule ujumbe kwa ajili ya kizazi cha mwisho uliowekwa rasmi mwaka 1996, ulianza kipindi cha miaka thelathini kilichohitimia kwa mtihani wa kusahihisha na kuweka rasmi ujumbe. Miaka ile thelathini ni ishara ya ukuhani wa wale mia na arobaini na nne elfu watakaouweka rasmi ujumbe wa Kilio cha Usiku wa Manane. Petro anawakilisha wale wanaotekeleza kazi hiyo katika kipindi cha mtihani wa pili wa hekalu wa Omega.

Sister White informs us that God allows error to come in among His people, for the purpose of causing them to study.

Dada White anatufahamisha kwamba Mungu huruhusu kosa kuingia miongoni mwa watu Wake, kwa kusudi la kuwasababisha kuchunguza.

> “God will arouse His people; if other means fail, heresies will come in among them, which will sift them, separating the chaff from the wheat. The Lord calls upon all who believe His word to awake out of sleep. Precious light has come, appropriate for this time. It is Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us. This light should lead us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examination of the positions which we hold.”

> Mungu atawamsha watu Wake; ikiwa njia nyingine zitashindwa, mafundisho ya uzushi yataingia miongoni mwao, ambayo yatawapepeta, yakitenganisha makapi na ngano. Bwana anawaita wote waaminio Neno Lake waamke kutoka usingizini. Nuru ya thamani imekuja, inayofaa kwa wakati huu. Ni ukweli wa Kibiblia, unaoonyesha hatari zinazotukabili sasa. Nuru hii inapaswa kutuongoza katika kujifunza kwa bidii Maandiko Matakatifu na kufanya uchunguzi makini kabisa wa misimamo tunayoishikilia.

The statement is a portion of a passage that will end this article in its entirety. In the articles and in our Sabbath zoom meetings, I confused some symbols in our consideration of Daniel 11:10–15, and although we made the necessary corrections, I was diverted from pursuing a conclusion of the series of articles upon Panium—the battle that leads to the Sunday law. It is now time to return to Panium, and when we do, we will have the added line of evidence that is represented by Peter at Caesarea Philippi, which is Panium.

Kauli hii ni sehemu ya kifungu kitakachohitimisha makala hii kikamilifu. Katika makala hizo na katika mikutano yetu ya Zoom ya Sabato, nilichanganya baadhi ya ishara katika uchunguzi wetu wa Danieli 11:10–15, na ingawa tulifanya marekebisho yaliyohitajika, nikakatizwa katika jitihada za kuhitimisha mfululizo wa makala kuhusu Panium—vita vinavyopelekea sheria ya Jumapili. Sasa umefika wakati wa kurejea Panium, na tutakapofanya hivyo, tutakuwa na safu ya ziada ya ushahidi inayowakilishwa na Petro huko Kaisarea Filipo, ambayo ndiyo Panium.

We will now return to our considerations of verses ten through sixteen of Daniel eleven, which illustrate the hidden history of verse forty. We left off in September, so it has been roughly five months.

Sasa tutarejea katika uchambuzi wetu wa aya kuanzia ya kumi hadi ya kumi na sita za Danieli sura ya kumi na moja, ambazo zinaonyesha historia iliyositirika ya aya ya arobaini. Tuliishia mwezi wa Septemba; hivyo, imepita takribani miezi mitano.

> “Peter exhorts his brethren to ‘grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.’ Whenever the people of God are growing in grace, they will be constantly obtaining a clearer understanding of His word. They will discern new light and beauty in its sacred truths. This has been true in the history of the church in all ages, and thus it will continue to the end. But as real spiritual life declines, it has ever been the tendency to cease to advance in the knowledge of the truth. Men rest satisfied with the light already received from God’s word and discourage any further investigation of the Scriptures. They become conservative and seek to avoid discussion.

> Petro anawasihi ndugu zake “kukua katika neema, na katika maarifa ya Bwana wetu na Mwokozi wetu, Yesu Kristo.” Kila mara watu wa Mungu wanapokua katika neema, watakuwa daima wakipata ufahamu ulio wazi zaidi wa neno lake. Watatambua mwanga mpya na uzuri katika kweli zake takatifu. Hili limekuwa kweli katika historia ya kanisa katika enzi zote, na hivyo ndivyo litakavyoendelea hadi mwisho. Lakini kadiri uhai halisi wa kiroho unavyopungua, daima kumekuwa na mwelekeo wa kuacha kusonga mbele katika maarifa ya kweli. Watu huridhika na nuru waliokwisha kupokea kutoka kwa neno la Mungu na hukatisha tamaa uchunguzi wowote zaidi wa Maandiko. Huwa wa kihafidhina na hutafuta kuepuka mijadala.

> “The fact that there is no controversy or agitation among God’s people should not be regarded as conclusive evidence that they are holding fast to sound doctrine. There is reason to fear that they may not be clearly discriminating between truth and error. When no new questions are started by investigation of the Scriptures, when no difference of opinion arises which will set men to searching the Bible for themselves to make sure that they have the truth, there will be many now, as in ancient times, who will hold to tradition and worship they know not what.

> Jambo kwamba hakuna mabishano wala mtafaruku miongoni mwa watu wa Mungu lisichukuliwe kama ushahidi wa kutosha kwamba wanashikilia kwa uthabiti mafundisho sahihi. Kuna sababu ya kuogopa kwamba huenda wasiwe wanatofautisha kwa uwazi kati ya kweli na kosa. Wakati hakuna maswali mapya yanayoibuliwa kwa kuchunguza Maandiko, wakati hakuna tofauti ya maoni inayozuka itakayowafanya watu wachunguze Biblia wao wenyewe ili kuhakikisha kwamba wana ile kweli, kutakuwa na wengi sasa, kama ilivyokuwa nyakati za kale, watakaoshikilia mapokeo na kuabudu wasichokijua.

> “I have been shown that many who profess to have a knowledge of present truth know not what they believe. They do not understand the evidences of their faith. They have no just appreciation of the work for the present time. When the time of trial shall come, there are men now preaching to others who will find, upon examining the positions they hold, that there are many things for which they can give no satisfactory reason. Until thus tested they knew not their great ignorance. And there are many in the church who take it for granted that they understand what they believe; but, until controversy arises, they do not know their own weakness. When separated from those of like faith and compelled to stand singly and alone to explain their belief, they will be surprised to see how confused are their ideas of what they had accepted as truth. Certain it is that there has been among us a departure from the living God and a turning to men, putting human in place of divine wisdom.

> Nimeonyeshwa kwamba wengi wanaodai kuwa na maarifa ya kweli ya sasa hawajui wanachoamini. Hawaelewi ushahidi wa imani yao. Hawathamini ipasavyo kazi ya wakati huu. Wakati wa majaribu utakapokuja, wapo watu wanaohubiri sasa kwa wengine ambao watagundua, watakapochunguza misimamo wanayoishikilia, kwamba kuna mambo mengi ambayo hawawezi kutoa sababu ya kuridhisha. Kabla ya kujaribiwa hivyo, hawakujua ujinga wao mkubwa. Na wako wengi kanisani wanaochukulia kuwa ni dhahiri kwamba wanaelewa wanachoamini; lakini, mpaka mabishano yatakapozuka, hawajui udhaifu wao wenyewe. Wanapotenganishwa na wale wenye imani moja na wao na kulazimishwa kusimama peke yao kueleza imani yao, watashangaa kuona jinsi mawazo yao yalivyochanganyikiwa kuhusu kile walichokuwa wamekikubali kama kweli. Hakika ni kwamba miongoni mwetu kumetokea kuondoka kwa Mungu aliye hai na kugeukia wanadamu, tukiweka hekima ya kibinadamu mahali pa hekima ya kimungu.

> “God will arouse His people; if other means fail, heresies will come in among them, which will sift them, separating the chaff from the wheat. The Lord calls upon all who believe His word to awake out of sleep. Precious light has come, appropriate for this time. It is Bible truth, showing the perils that are right upon us. This light should lead us to a diligent study of the Scriptures and a most critical examination of the positions which we hold. God would have all the bearings and positions of truth thoroughly and perseveringly searched, with prayer and fasting. Believers are not to rest in suppositions and ill-defined ideas of what constitutes truth. Their faith must be firmly founded upon the word of God so that when the testing time shall come and they are brought before councils to answer for their faith they may be able to give a reason for the hope that is in them, with meekness and fear.

> Mungu atawaamsha watu Wake; ikiwa njia nyingine zitashindikana, uzushi utaingia miongoni mwao, utakaowachuja, ukitenganisha makapi na ngano. Bwana anawaita wote wanaoamini Neno Lake waamke kutoka usingizini. Nuru ya thamani imekuja, inayofaa wakati huu. Ni ukweli wa Biblia, unaoonyesha hatari zinazotukabili. Nuru hii inapaswa kutuongoza katika kujifunza kwa bidii Maandiko na kuchunguza kwa makini mno misimamo tunayoshikilia. Mungu angependa vipengele vyote na misimamo ya ukweli vichunguzwe kwa kina na kwa uvumilivu, pamoja na maombi na kufunga. Waumini wasitegemee dhana na mawazo yasiyoainishwa vyema kuhusu kile kinachounda ukweli. Imani yao lazima iwe imejengwa imara juu ya Neno la Mungu, ili kwamba wakati wa kujaribiwa utakapokuja na watakapoletwa mbele ya mabaraza kujibu juu ya imani yao, waweze kutoa sababu ya tumaini lililo ndani yao, kwa upole na kwa kicho.

> “Agitate, agitate, agitate. The subjects which we present to the world must be to us a living reality. It is important that in defending the doctrines which we consider fundamental articles of faith we should never allow ourselves to employ arguments that are not wholly sound. These may avail to silence an opposer, but they do not honor the truth. We should present sound arguments, that will not only silence our opponents, but will bear the closest and most searching scrutiny. With those who have educated themselves as debaters there is great danger that they will not handle the word of God with fairness. In meeting an opponent it should be our earnest effort to present subjects in such a manner as to awaken conviction in his mind, instead of seeking merely to give confidence to the believer.

> Chocheeni, chocheeni, chocheeni. Mada tunazowasilisha kwa ulimwengu lazima ziwe kwetu uhalisia ulio hai. Ni muhimu kwamba, katika kutetea mafundisho tunayoyaona kuwa kanuni za msingi za imani, tusijiruhusu kamwe kutumia hoja ambazo si thabiti kabisa. Huenda hizi zikafaulu kumnyamazisha mpinzani, lakini haziheshimu ukweli. Tunapaswa kuwasilisha hoja thabiti, ambazo si tu zitawanyamazisha wapinzani wetu, bali pia zitakazostahimili uchunguzi wa karibu na wa kina kabisa. Kwa wale waliojizoeza katika sanaa ya mjadala, kuna hatari kubwa kwamba hawatalishughulikia Neno la Mungu kwa haki. Tunapokutana na mpinzani, jitihada zetu za dhati zinapaswa kuwa kuwasilisha mada kwa namna itakayoamsha hakika akilini mwake, badala ya kutafuta tu kumpa ujasiri mwamini.

> “Whatever may be man’s intellectual advancement, let him not for a moment think that there is no need of thorough and continuous searching of the Scriptures for greater light. As a people we are called individually to be students of prophecy. We must watch with earnestness that we may discern any ray of light which God shall present to us. We are to catch the first gleamings of truth; and through prayerful study clearer light may be obtained, which can be brought before others.

> Haijalishi mwanadamu amepiga hatua kiasi gani kiakili, asifikirie hata kwa muda mfupi kwamba hakuna haja ya kuchunguza Maandiko kwa kina na kwa kuendelea ili kupata nuru zaidi. Kama watu, tumeitwa, kila mmoja wetu, kuwa wanafunzi wa unabii. Lazima tukeshe kwa bidii ili tutambue mwanga wowote ambao Mungu atatuonyesha. Tunapaswa kupokea miale ya kwanza ya kweli; na kupitia kusoma kwa maombi, nuru iliyo angavu zaidi inaweza kupatikana, ambayo inaweza kuwasilishwa kwa wengine.

> “When God’s people are at ease and satisfied with their present enlightenment, we may be sure that He will not favor them. It is His will that they should be ever moving forward to receive the increased and ever-increasing light which is shining for them. The present attitude of the church is not pleasing to God. There has come in a self-confidence that has led them to feel no necessity for more truth and greater light. We are living at a time when Satan is at work on the right hand and on the left, before and behind us; and yet as a people we are asleep. God wills that a voice shall be heard arousing His people to action.

> Wakati watu wa Mungu wanapokuwa katika raha na wameridhika na nuru waliyo nayo sasa, twaweza kuwa na hakika kwamba hawatapata kibali Chake. Ni mapenzi Yake kwamba daima wasonge mbele ili kupokea nuru iliyoongezeka na inayozidi kuongezeka inayowaangazia. Msimamo wa sasa wa kanisa haumfurahishi Mungu. Kumeingia hali ya kujiamini iliyowafanya wahisi kwamba hawana haja ya kweli zaidi na nuru kuu zaidi. Tunaishi wakati ambapo Shetani anafanya kazi upande wa kuume na wa kushoto, mbele yetu na nyuma yetu; na ilhali, kama watu, tumo usingizini. Ni mapenzi ya Mungu kwamba sauti isikike ikiwaamsha watu Wake kuchukua hatua.

> “Instead of opening the soul to receive rays of light from heaven, some have been working in an opposite direction. Both through the press and from the pulpit have been presented views in regard to the inspiration of the Bible which have not the sanction of the Spirit or the word of God. Certain it is that no man or set of men should undertake to advance theories upon a subject of so great importance, without a plain ‘Thus saith the Lord’ to sustain them. And when men, compassed with human infirmities, affected in a greater or less degree by surrounding influences, and having hereditary and cultivated tendencies which are far from making them wise or heavenly-minded, undertake to arraign the word of God, and to pass judgment upon what is divine and what is human, they are working without the counsel of God. The Lord will not prosper such a work. The effect will be disastrous, both upon the one engaged in it and upon those who accept it as a work from God. Skepticism has been aroused in many minds by the theories presented as to the nature of inspiration. Finite beings, with their narrow, short-sighted views, feel themselves competent to criticize the Scriptures, saying: ‘This passage is needful, and that passage is not needful, and is not inspired.’

> Badala ya kuifungua nafsi ili ipokee miale ya nuru itokayo mbinguni, baadhi wamekuwa wakitenda kwa mwelekeo ulio kinyume. Kupitia uchapishaji na kutoka mimbari, kumewasilishwa mitazamo kuhusu uvuvio wa Biblia ambayo haina idhini ya Roho wala ya Neno la Mungu. Ni hakika kwamba hakuna mtu, wala kundi la watu, linalopaswa kujitwika jukumu la kuendeleza nadharia juu ya jambo la umuhimu mkuu namna hii, pasipo ‘Hivi asema Bwana’ iliyo wazi ya kuwaunga mkono. Na watu, waliokumbwa na udhaifu wa kibinadamu, wakiguswa kwa kiasi kikubwa au kidogo na ushawishi wa mazingira yanayowazunguka, na wenye mielekeo ya kurithi na ya kulelewa iliyo mbali sana na kuwafanya wawe wenye hekima au wenye mwelekeo wa kimbinguni, wanapojitia kulihoji Neno la Mungu na kupitisha hukumu juu ya lipi ni la Kimungu na lipi ni la kibinadamu, wanafanya kazi pasipo shauri la Mungu. Bwana hatafanikisha kazi ya namna hiyo. Athari zake zitakuwa za uharibifu, kwa yule anayeijishughulisha nayo na kwa wale wanaoikubali kama kazi itokayo kwa Mungu. Mashaka yameamshwa katika akili za wengi kwa sababu ya nadharia zilizowasilishwa kuhusu asili ya uvuvio. Viumbe walio na ukomo, wakiwa na mitazamo finyu na ya kutoona mbali, hujiona wenye uwezo wa kuyakosoa Maandiko, wakisema: ‘Fungu hili linahitajika, na fungu lile halihitajiki, wala halikuvuviwa.’

> “Christ gave no such instruction in regard to the Old Testament Scriptures, the only part of the Bible which the people of His time possessed. His teachings were designed to direct their minds to the Old Testament and to bring into clearer light the great themes there presented. For ages the people of Israel had been separating themselves from God, and they had lost sight of precious truths which He had committed to them. These truths were covered up with superstitious forms and ceremonies that concealed their true significance. Christ came to remove the rubbish which had obscured their luster. He placed them, as precious gems, in a new setting. He showed that so far from disdaining the repetition of old, familiar truths, He came to make them appear in their true force and beauty, the glory of which had never been discerned by the men of His time. Himself the Author of these revealed truths, He could open to the people their true meaning, freeing them from the misinterpretations and false theories adopted by the leaders to suit their own unconsecrated condition, their destitution of spirituality and the love of God. He cast aside that which had robbed these truths of life and vital power, and gave them back to the world in all their original freshness and force.

> Kristo hakutoa maagizo kama hayo kuhusu Maandiko ya Agano la Kale, ambayo ndiyo sehemu pekee ya Biblia iliyokuwapo mikononi mwa watu wa wakati wake. Mafundisho yake yalikusudiwa kuelekeza nia zao kwa Agano la Kale na kuleta katika mwanga ulio wazi zaidi mada kuu zilizowasilishwa humo. Kwa vizazi vingi Waisraeli walikuwa wakijitenga na Mungu, nao walikuwa wamepoteza ufahamu wa kweli za thamani alizowaaminisha. Kweli hizo zilifunikwa kwa desturi na sherehe za kishirikina zilizositiri maana yao halisi. Kristo alikuja kuondoa takataka zilizokuwa zimeufifisha uangavu wa kweli hizo. Akaziweka, kama vito vya thamani, katika muktadha mpya. Alionyesha kwamba, mbali na kudharau kurudiwa kwa kweli za kale zilizozoeleka, alikuja kuzileta zionekane katika nguvu na uzuri wa kweli, utukufu ambao haujawahi kutambuliwa na watu wa wakati wake. Yeye mwenyewe, Mwandishi wa kweli hizi zilizofunuliwa, aliweza kuwafungulia watu maana yao ya kweli, akiwakomboa kutoka kwa tafsiri potovu na nadharia za uongo zilizokubaliwa na viongozi ili kuendana na hali yao isiyowekwa wakfu, ufukara wao wa kiroho na wa upendo wa Mungu. Alitupilia mbali kile kilichokuwa kimezinyang’anya kweli hizi uhai na nguvu hai, naye akazirudishia ulimwengu katika upya wao wa asili na nguvu zao zote za awali.

> “If we have the Spirit of Christ and are laborers together with Him, it is ours to carry forward the work which He came to do. The truths of the Bible have again become obscured by custom, tradition, and false doctrine. The erroneous teachings of popular theology have made thousands upon thousands of skeptics and infidels. There are errors and inconsistencies which many denounce as the teaching of the Bible that are really false interpretations of Scripture, adopted during the ages of papal darkness. Multitudes have been led to cherish an erroneous conception of God, as the Jews, misled by the errors and traditions of their time, had a false conception of Christ. ‘Had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.’ It is ours to reveal to the world the true character of God. Instead of criticizing the Bible, let us seek, by precept and example, to present to the world its sacred, life-giving truths, that we may ‘show forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.’

> Ikiwa tunaye Roho wa Kristo na sisi ni watenda kazi pamoja naye, ni juu yetu kuendeleza kazi aliyokuja kuifanya. Kweli za Biblia zimetiwa giza tena na desturi, mapokeo, na mafundisho ya uongo. Mafundisho yenye makosa ya teolojia maarufu yamesababisha maelfu kwa maelfu kuwa wenye shaka na wasioamini. Kuna makosa na mambo yasiyolingana ambayo wengi huyalaani kana kwamba ndiyo mafundisho ya Biblia; kumbe, ni tafsiri za uongo za Maandiko, zilizopokelewa katika enzi za giza za kipapa. Wengi wameongozwa kuenzi dhana potovu kumhusu Mungu, kama vile Wayahudi, waliopotoshwa na makosa na mapokeo ya wakati wao, walivyokuwa na dhana ya uongo kumhusu Kristo. ‘Kama wangalijua, wasingalimsulubisha Bwana wa utukufu.’ Ni juu yetu kuufunulia ulimwengu tabia ya kweli ya Mungu. Badala ya kuikosoa Biblia, tujitahidi, kwa mafundisho na kwa mfano, kuziwasilisha ulimwenguni kweli zake takatifu ziletazo uzima, ili tupate ‘kuzitangaza sifa zake yeye aliyewaita ninyi kutoka gizani hata mkaingie katika nuru yake ya ajabu.’

> “The evils that have been gradually creeping in among us have imperceptibly led individuals and churches away from reverence for God, and have shut away the power which He desires to give them.

> Maovu ambayo yamekuwa yakiingia taratibu miongoni mwetu yamewaongoza, pasipo kutambuliwa, watu binafsi na makanisa mbali na kumcha Mungu, na yamefungia mbali nguvu ambayo Yeye Anataka kuwapa.

> “My brethren, let the word of God stand just as it is. Let not human wisdom presume to lessen the force of one statement of the Scriptures. The solemn denunciation in the Revelation should warn us against taking such ground. In the name of my Master I bid you: ‘Put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground.’” Testimonies, volume 5, 707–711.

> Ndugu zangu, neno la Mungu na lisimame kama lilivyo. Hekima ya kibinadamu isithubutu kupunguza uzito wa neno hata moja la Maandiko Matakatifu. Tangazo la hukumu lenye uzito lililo katika Ufunuo linapaswa kutuonya dhidi ya kuchukua msimamo wa namna hiyo. Kwa jina la Bwana Wangu nawaagiza: “Vua viatu vyako miguuni pako; kwa maana mahali hapo unaposimama ni nchi takatifu.” Ushuhuda, juzuu ya 5, 707-711.
