> “There are in the Scriptures some things which are hard to be understood and which, according to the language of Peter, the unlearned and unstable wrest unto their own destruction. We may not, in this life, be able to explain the meaning of every passage of Scripture; but there are no vital points of practical truth that will be clouded in mystery. When the time shall come, in the providence of God, for the world to be tested upon the truth for that time, minds will be exercised by His Spirit to search the Scriptures, even with fasting and with prayer, until link after link is searched out and united in a perfect chain. Every fact which immediately concerns the salvation of souls will be made so clear that none need err or walk in darkness.

> “Mukaddes Ýazgylarda düşünilmegi kyn bolan käbir zatlar bar; Petrusyň aýdyşy ýaly, sowatsyzlar we durnuksyzlar olary özleriniň heläk bolmagyna getirýän görnüşde ýoýarlar. Bu durmuşda biz Mukaddes Ýazgylaryň her bir aýatynyň manysyny düşündirip bilmezligimiz mümkin; emma amaly hakykatyň hiç bir ýaşaýyş ähmiýetli nokady syr bilen bulutlandyrylmaz. Öz wagtyndaky hakykat boýunça dünýäniň synagdan geçiriljek wagty Hudaýyň ylahy tertibi bilen gelende, adamlaryň aňlary Onuň Ruhy arkaly, hatda oraza we doga bilen-de, Mukaddes Ýazgylary barlamaga oýarlar; şeýlelikde, bir-biriniň yzyndan baglanyşyk üstüne baglanyşyk tapylyp, kämil bir zynjyra birleşdiriler. Janlaryň gutulyşy bilen gönüden-göni bagly bolan her bir hakykat şeýle bir aýdyň ediler welin, hiç kim azaşmaga ýa-da garaňkylykda ýöremäge mätäç bolmaz.”

> “As we have followed down the chain of prophecy, revealed truth for our time has been clearly seen and explained. We are accountable for the privileges that we enjoy and for the light that shines upon our pathway. Those who lived in past generations were accountable for the light which was permitted to shine upon them. Their minds were exercised in regard to different points of Scripture which tested them. But they did not understand the truths which we do. They were not responsible for the light which they did not have. They had the Bible, as we have; but the time for the unfolding of special truth in relation to the closing scenes of this earth’s history is during the last generations that shall live upon the earth.

> Pygamberligiň zynjyry boýunça yzarlap gelenimizde, biziň zamanamyz üçin aýan edilen hakykat açyk-aýdyň görlüp, düşündirildi. Biz peýdalanýan artykmaçlyklarymyz we ýolumyza düşýän nur üçin jogapkärdiris. Geçen nesillerde ýaşanlar hem özlerine ýagmagyna rugsat edilen nur üçin jogapkärdiler. Olaryň aňy Mukaddes Ýazgynyň özlerini synag edýän dürli meseleleri babatda işjeňleşdirildi. Emma olar biziň düşünýän hakykatlarymyza düşünmediler. Olar özlerinde bolmadyk nur üçin jogapkär däldiler. Olarda hem, bizdäki ýaly, Injil bardy; emma bu ýeriň taryhynyň soňky sahnalary bilen baglanyşykly aýratyn hakykatyň açylyp görkezilmeginiň wagty ýerde ýaşajak iň soňky nesiller döwrüne degişlidir.

> “Special truths have been adapted to the conditions of the generations as they have existed. The present truth, which is a test to the people of this generation, was not a test to the people of generations far back. If the light which now shines upon us in regard to the Sabbath of the fourth commandment had been given to the generations in the past, God would have held them accountable for that light.” Testimonies, volume 2, 692, 693.

> “Nesilleriň ýagdaýlaryna laýyklykda aýratyn hakykatlar uýgunlaşdyryldy. Häzirki hakykat, ýagny bu nesliň adamlary üçin synag bolan hakykat, öňki uzak nesilleriň adamlary üçin synag däldi. Eger dördünji tabşyrygyň Sabaty baradaky häzir biziň üstümize saçýan nur bize geçmiş nesillere berlen bolan bolsady, Hudaý olary şol nur üçin jogapkär tutardy.” Testimonies, 2-nji tom, 692, 693.

## New and Old

Täze we Köne

> “In every age there is a new development of truth, a message of God to the people of that generation. The old truths are all essential; new truth is not independent of the old, but an unfolding of it. It is only as the old truths are understood that we can comprehend the new. When Christ desired to open to His disciples the truth of His resurrection, He began ‘at Moses and all the prophets’ and ‘expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself.’ Luke 24:27. But it is the light which shines in the fresh unfolding of truth that glorifies the old. He who rejects or neglects the new does not really possess the old. For him it loses its vital power and becomes but a lifeless form.

> “Her bir döwürde hakykatyň täze bir ösüşi, şol nesliň halky üçin Hudaýdan gelen bir habar bolýar. Köne hakykatlaryň ählisi hem zerurdyr; täze hakykat köne hakykatdan garaşsyz däl, eýsem onuň açylyp görkezilmegidir. Täze hakykata diňe köne hakykatlar düşünilen mahaly düşünip bileris. Mesih Öz direlişi baradaky hakykaty şägirtlerine açmagy isläninde, ‘Musa bilen ähli pygamberlerden’ başlap, ‘Özi hakda bolan zatlary ähli Ýazgylarda olara düşündirdi’. Luka 24:27. Emma köneni şöhratlandyrýan zat, hakykatyň täze açylyşynda şöhle saçýan nurdur. Täzäni ret edýän ýa-da oňa äsgermezçilik edýän adam köneni hem hakykatda eýeleýän däldir. Onuň üçin ol öz ýaşaýyş beriji güýjüni ýitirýär-de, diňe jansyz bir şekile öwrülýär.”

> “There are those who profess to believe and to teach the truths of the Old Testament, while they reject the New. But in refusing to receive the teachings of Christ, they show that they do not believe that which patriarchs and prophets have spoken. ‘Had ye believed Moses,’ Christ said, ‘ye would have believed Me; for he wrote of Me.’ John 5:46. Hence there is no real power in their teaching of even the Old Testament.

> Köne Ähtiň hakykatlaryna ynanýandyklaryny we olary öwredýändiklerini ykrar edýänler bar, emma olar Täze Ähti ret edýärler. Ýöne Mesihiň taglymatlaryny kabul etmekden ýüz öwürmek bilen, olar patriarhlaryň we pygamberleriň aýdanyna ynanmaýandyklaryny görkezýärler. “Eger siz Musa ynanan bolsaňyz,” diýip, Mesih aýtdy, “Maňa-da ynanardyňyz; çünki ol Men hakda ýazdy.” Ýahýa 5:46. Şonuň üçin olaryň hatda Köne Äht baradaky taglymatynda-da hakyky güýç ýokdur.

> “Many who claim to believe and to teach the gospel are in a similar error. They set aside the Old Testament Scriptures, of which Christ declared, ‘They are they which testify of Me.’ John 5:39. In rejecting the Old, they virtually reject the New; for both are parts of an inseparable whole. No man can rightly present the law of God without the gospel, or the gospel without the law. The law is the gospel embodied, and the gospel is the law unfolded. The law is the root, the gospel is the fragrant blossom and fruit which it bears.

> Özleriniň Hoş Habara ynanýandyklaryny we ony öwredýändiklerini aýdýan köp adam hem şuňa meňzeş ýalňyşlykdalar. Olar Mesihiň özi hakynda: “Olar Men hakda şaýatlyk edýän ýazgylardyr” diýip yglan eden Köne Äht ýazgylaryny bir gyra goýýarlar. Ýahýa 5:39. Köne Ähti ret etmek bilen, olar aslynda Täze Ähti hem ret edýärler; çünki olaryň ikisi-de bölünmez bitewüligiň bölekleridir. Hiç kim Hudaýyň kanunyny Hoş Habarsyz, ýa-da Hoş Habary kanunsyz dogry beýan edip bilmez. Kanun bedene giren Hoş Habardyr, Hoş Habar bolsa açylyp görkezilen kanundyr. Kanun kökdir; Hoş Habar bolsa onuň berýän hoşboý ysly güli we miwesidir.

> “The Old Testament sheds light upon the New, and the New upon the Old. Each is a revelation of the glory of God in Christ. Both present truths that will continually reveal new depths of meaning to the earnest seeker.” Christ’s Object Lessons, 128.

> “Köne Äht Isa Ähti yşyklandyrýar, Täze Äht hem Köne Ähti. Olaryň her biri Mesihdäki Hudaýyň şöhratynyň ylhamydyr. Ikisi-de yhlasly gözlegçä manynyň täze çuňluklaryny hemişe açyp görkezjek hakykatlary beýan edýär.” Christ’s Object Lessons, 128.

Present truth is by definition the “revealed truth” for a specific period of time that is “clearly seen and explained.” The generation living at the time when “present truth” is revealed are held “accountable” to accept that truth or die. The combined truths which make up the “present testing truth” for “this generation,” are represented in “the unfolding of special” truths “in relation to the closing scenes of this earth’s history.” Truth, and therefore “present truth” is typified by the New Testament in relation to the Old Testament. Truth is established upon two witnesses and truth has a beginning and an end, a literal and a spiritual, an ancient and a modern, an alpha and an omega, a first and a last.

Häzirki hakykat, kesgitlemesi boýunça, belli bir döwür üçin “aýan edilen hakykatdyr”; ol “aýdyň görülýän we düşündirilýän” hakykatdyr. “Häzirki hakykat” aýan edilýän wagtda ýaşaýan nesil şol hakykaty kabul etmäge “jogapkär” tutulýar, ýogsam ölüme sezewar bolýar. “Şu nesil” üçin “häzirki synag hakykatyny” emele getirýän jemlenen hakykatlar, “ýeriň taryhynyň tamamlaýjy sahnalary bilen baglanyşykly” “aýratyn” hakykatlaryň “açylyp barşynda” şekillendirilýär. Hakykat, şonuň üçin hem “häzirki hakykat”, Täze Äht tarapyndan Köne Äht bilen baglanyşykda nusgalaşdyrylýar. Hakykat iki şaýat arkaly berkidilýär, we hakykatyň başlangyjy hem soňy, göni manylysy hem ruhanysy, gadymysy hem döwrebapysy, alfasy hem omegasy, birinjisi hem ahyrkysy bardyr.

The Millerite foundation of the first angel’s message is the “old” in relation to the “present truth” message of the third angel. Those who are “rejecting the Old,” “virtually reject the New” for both are parts of an inseparable whole.”

Birinci perişdäniň habarynyň Millerit binýady, üçünji perişdäniň “häzirki hakykat” habaryna görä “köne”dir. “Könäni ret edýänler”, “täzäni hem iş ýüzünde ret edýärler”, çünki bularyň ikisi-de biri-birinden aýrylmaz bir bitewüligiň bölekleridir.

> “I saw the necessity of the messengers, especially, watching and checking all fanaticism wherever they might see it rise. Satan is pressing in on every side, and unless we watch for him, and have our eyes open to his devices and snares, and have on the whole armor of God, the fiery darts of the wicked will hit us. There are many precious truths contained in the Word of God, but it is ‘present truth’ that the flock needs now. I have seen the danger of the messengers running off from the important points of present truth, to dwell upon subjects that are not calculated to unite the flock and sanctify the soul. Satan will here take every possible advantage to injure the cause.

> “Habarlary iberijileriň zerurlygyny gördüm; aýratyn-da, nirede ýüze çykýandygyny görseler, şol ýerdäki her bir fanatizme gözegçilik edip, ony barlap durmak zerurdyr. Şeýtan her tarapdan gysyşdyrýar; eger biz oňa garşy hüşgär durmasak, onuň hilelerine we duzaklaryna gözümizi açyk tutmasak, hem-de Hudaýyň ähli ýaragyny geýmesek, şol pisniň otly oklary bize degip urar. Hudaýyň Sözüniň içinde köp gymmatly hakykatlar bardyr, emma süriniň häzir zerur duýýany ‘şu wagtky hakykatdyr’. Men iberijileriň şu wagtky hakykatyň möhüm nokatlaryndan sowulyp, sürini birleşdirmäge we jany mukaddeslemäge ukyply bolmadyk mowzuklaryň üstünde saklanmak howpuny gördüm. Şeýtan bu ýerde işe zyýan ýetirmek üçin mümkin bolan her bir mümkinçilikden peýdalanar.”

> “But such subjects as the sanctuary, in connection with the 2300 days, the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, are perfectly calculated to explain the past Advent movement and show what our present position is, establish the faith of the doubting, and give certainty to the glorious future. These, I have frequently seen, were the principal subjects on which the messengers should dwell.” Early Writings, 63.

> “Emma 2300 gün bilen baglanyşykly mukaddes ýer, Hudaýyň tabşyryklary we Isanyň imany ýaly mowzuklar geçen Advent hereketini düşündirmek, häzirki ýagdaýymyzyň nämedigini görkezmek, şübhe edýänleriň imanyny berkitmek hem-de şöhratly geljege ynamlylyk bermek üçin kämil derejede laýykdyr. Men köp gezek habarçylaryň üstünde durmaly esasy mowzuklarynyň şulardygyny gördüm.” Early Writings, 63.

The “sanctuary, in connection with the 2300 days, the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” are the key to explain the “past Advent movement” of the Millerites and in so doing, to explain “perfectly” “what our present position is.” Those who are “doubting” the “past Advent movement,” are “doubting” what gives “certainty to the glorious future.” What gives certainty to the future is the past.

“2300 gün” bilen baglanyşykdaky “mukaddes ýer”, Hudaýyň buýruklary we Isanyň imany, Milleritleriň “geçen Advent hereketini” düşündirmegiň açarydyr; şeýle etmek bilen hem, “häzirki ornumyzyň nämedigini” “doly” düşündirmegiň açarydyr. “Geçen Advent hereketine” “şübhelenýänler”, “şanly geljege” “ynanyşma berýän” zada “şübhelenýärler”. Geljege ynanyşma berýän zat geçmişdir.

The book of Joel is a message of present testing truth. This is confirmed by multiple witnesses. Joel is identified as “present truth” by the Spirit of Prophecy, which according to John in the book of Revelation is the testimony of Jesus.

Ýoýel kitaby häzirki synag hakykatynyň habarydyr. Muny birnäçe şaýat tassyklaýar. Ýoýel Ruhy pygamberlik tarapyndan “häzirki hakykat” diýip kesgitlenýär; bu bolsa, Ylham kitabynda Ýahýanyň aýdyşy ýaly, Isanyň şaýatlygydyr.

> The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Revelation 1:1, 2.

> Isa Mesihiň aýan bolmagy, ony Hudaý Öz hyzmatkärlerine tizden bolmaly zatlary görkezmek üçin Oňa berdi; Ol muny Öz perişdesi arkaly Öz hyzmatkäri Ýahýa iberip, oňa bildirdi. Ol hem Hudaýyň sözüne, Isa Mesihiň şaýatlygyna we gören zatlarynyň hemmesine şaýatlyk etdi. Ylham 1:1, 2.

The “testimony” of John (which he bore “record of”), was portrayed in three parts. He recorded the “word of God,” the “testimony of Jesus” and the “things that he saw.” In the first two verses of Revelation, John represents one who has been given the gift of the “spirit of prophecy.” That gift includes a special revelation of God’s Word, and it also includes special revelations conveyed to the prophet through the words of Christ; (either by Christ directly or through his angelic representatives) and the gift also includes truth presented through the medium of dreams and visions. The spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Christ which is conveyed to the prophet and it bears the same authority as if an angel or Christ spoke the words.

Ýahýanyň “şaýatlygy” (ol bu barada “şaýatlyk etdi”) üç bölekde beýan edildi. Ol “Hudaýyň sözüni”, “Isanyň şaýatlygyny” we “gören zatlaryny” ýazga geçirdi. Ylhamyň ilkinji iki aýatynda Ýahýa özüne “pygamberlik ruhy” peşgeşi berlen birini aňladýar. Bu peşgeş Hudaýyň Sözüniň aýratyn ylhamyny öz içine alýar, şeýle hem ol pygambere Mesihiň sözleri arkaly ýetirilýän aýratyn ylhamlary öz içine alýar; (ýa Mesihiň gönüden-göni Özi tarapyndan ýa-da Onuň perişde wekilleri arkaly) we bu peşgeş düýşlerdir görnüşler arkaly berilýän hakykaty hem öz içine alýar. Pygamberlik ruhy pygambere ýetirilýän Mesihiň şaýatlygydyr we ol edil bir perişde ýa-da Mesih şol sözleri aýdýan ýaly şol bir ygtyýara eýedir.

> And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. Revelation 19:10.

> Men oňa ybadat etmek üçin onuň aýaklaryna ýykyldym. Ol bolsa maňa şeýle diýdi: «Sak bol, beýle etme; men seniň bilen hyzmatdaş guldyryn hem-de Isanyň şaýatlygyna eýe bolan doganlaryňdandyraryn. Hudaýa ybadat et, çünki Isanyň şaýatlygy pygamberligiň ruhudyr». Ylham 19:10.

Gabriel identifies that he is a fellowservant with John, and he is not to be worshipped. Gabriel also identifies that the “brethren” that are represented by John “have the testimony of Jesus,” which is the “spirit of prophecy.” The “brethren” which John represents are the one hundred and forty-four thousand, and the brethren all have the “spirit of prophecy.”

Gabriel özüniň Ýahýa bilen bilelikdäki hyzmatkärdigini aýdýar, şonuň üçin oňa sežde edilmeli däldir. Şeýle-de Gabriel Ýahýanyň wekilçilik edýän “doganlaryň” “Isanyň şaýatlygyna” eýedigini, munuň bolsa “pygamberlik ruhudygyny” aýdýar. Ýahýanyň wekilçilik edýän “doganlary” ýüz kyrk dört müňdir, we şol doganlaryň hemmesi “pygamberlik ruhuna” eýedir.

> “And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. 2 Chronicles 20:20.

> “Daň bilen ir turup, Tekoanyň çölüne tarap ugradylar. Olar çykyp barýarkalar, Ýehosafat ýerinden turup diýdi: Meni diňläň, eý Ýahuda we eý Ýerusalemiň ýaşaýjylary! Reb Hudaýyňyza ynanyň, şonda berk durar syňyz; Onuň pygamberlerine ynanyň, şonda rowaçlanarsyňyz. 2 Ýyl ýazgylary 20:20.

> “‘Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.’

> “‘Öz Hudaýyňyz Rebbe iman ediň, şonda berkarar bolarsyňyz; Onuň pygamberlerine iman ediň, şonda rowaçlanarsyňyz.’”

> “Isaiah 8:20. ‘To the law and to the testimony; if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.’ Two texts are here set before God’s people: two conditions for success. The law spoken by Jehovah himself, and the spirit of prophecy, are the two sources of wisdom to guide His people in every experience. Deuteronomy 4:6. ‘This is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, who shall say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.’

> “Işaýa 8:20. ‘Kanuna we şaýatlyga ýüz tutuň; eger olar bu söz boýunça geplemeseler, bu olarda ýagtylygyň ýokdugy üçindir.’ Bu ýerde Hudaýyň halkynyň öňünde iki ýazgy goýlandyr: üstünligiň iki şerti. Göni Ýehowanyň Özi tarapyndan aýdylan kanun we pygamberlik ruhy, Onuň halkyna her bir tejribede ýol görkezýän hikmediň iki çeşmesidir. Kanun çykmagy 4:6. ‘Bu siziň milletleriň öňündäki hikmediňiz we akyldarlygyňyzdyr; olar: Hakykatdan-da, bu beýik millet akylly we paýhasly halkdyr, diýerler.’”

> “The law of God and the Spirit of Prophecy go hand in hand to guide and counsel the church, and whenever the church has recognized this by obeying His law, the spirit of prophecy has been sent to guide her in the way of truth.

> Hudaýyň kanuny bilen pygamberlik Ruhu ýygnagy ýol görkezmek we nesihat bermek üçin el-ele berip hereket edýärler; we haçan-da ýygnak Onuň kanunyna boýun bolmak arkaly muny ykrar eden bolsa, hakykat ýolunda oňa ýol görkezmek üçin pygamberlik ruhy iberildi.

> “Revelation 12:17. ‘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.’ This prophecy points out clearly that the remnant church will acknowledge God in His law and will have the prophetic gift. Obedience to the law of God, and the spirit of prophecy has always distinguished the true people of God, and the test is usually given on present manifestations.

> “Aýan boluş 12:17. ‘Şonda aždaha aýala garşy gazaplandy-da, onuň nesliniň galyndysyna garşy uruş etmäge gitdi; olar bolsa Hudaýyň buýruklaryny berjaý edýärler we Isa Mesihiň şaýatlygyna eýedirler.’ Bu pygamberlik galyndy ybadathananyň Hudaýy Onuň kanunynda ykrar etjekdigini hem-de pygamberlik peşgeşine eýe boljakdygyny aýdyň görkezýär. Hudaýyň kanunyna boýun egmek we pygamberlik ruhy hemişe Hudaýyň hakyky halkyny tapawutlandyryp gelipdir, synag bolsa adatça şu wagtky ýüze çykyşlar boýunça berilýär.

> “In Jeremiah’s day the people had no question about the message of Moses, Elijah, or Elisha, but they did question and put aside the message sent of God to Jeremiah until its force and power was wasted and there was no remedy but for God to carry them away into captivity.

> Ýeremiýanyň döwründe halk Musanyň, Ilýanyň ýa-da Elişaň habary babatda hiç bir şübhe etmändi, emma olar Hudaý tarapyndan Ýeremiýa iberilen habary şübhe astyna alyp, onuň güýji we täsiri biderek edilýänçä ony bir gyra süýşürdiler; şondan soň Hudaýyň olary ýesirlige alyp gitmeginden başga çäre galmady.

> “Likewise in the days of Christ the people had learned that Jeremiah’s message was true, and they persuaded themselves to believe that if they had lived in the days of their fathers they would have accepted his message, but at the same time they were rejecting Christ’s message, of whom all the prophets had written.

> Edil şonuň ýaly, Mesihiň günlerinde hem halk Ýeremiýanyň habarynyň hakykatdygyny öwrenipdi, hem-de öz atalarynyň günlerinde ýaşan bolsadylar, onuň habaryny kabul ederis diýip özlerini ynandyrýardylar; emma şol bir wagtyň özünde ähli pygamberleriň ýazyp giden Mesihiniň habaryny ret edýärdiler.

> “As the third angel’s message arose in the world, which is to reveal the law of God to the church in its fullness and power, the prophetic gift was also immediately restored. This gift has acted a very prominent part in the development and carrying forward of this message.

> “Üçünji perişdäniň habary dünýäde peýda bolanda, ýagny Hudaýyň kanunyny ybadathana onuň dolulygynda we gudratynda açyp görkezmeli bolan bu habar peýda bolanda, pygamberlik peşgeşi hem derrew täzeden dikeldildi. Bu peşgeş bu habaryň ösmeginde we öňe alnyp barylmagynda örän görnükli orun eýeledi.

> “As differences of opinion have arisen in reference to interpretations of Scriptures and methods of labor, calculated to unsettle the faith of believers in the message and lead to disunion in the work, the spirit of prophecy has always thrown light on the situation. It has always brought union of thought and harmony of action to the body of believers. In every crisis that has arisen in the development of the message and the growth of the work, those who have stood firmly by the law of God and the light of the Spirit of prophecy have triumphed and the work has prospered in their hands.” Loma Linda Messages, 33, 34.

> “Mukaddes Ýazgylaryň düşündirilişi we zähmet çekmegiň usullary babatda, habaryň içindäki imanlylaryň ynamyny sarsdyrmaga we işde agzalalyga eltmäge ukyply pikir tapawutlary ýüze çykan mahalynda, pygamberlik ruhy elmydama ýagdaýa nur saçypdyr. Ol elmydama imanlylar jemagatyna pikir birligini we hereket sazlaşygyny getiripdir. Habaryň ösüşinde we işiň ulalmagynda ýüze çykan her bir kyn pursatda, Hudaýyň kanunynyň hem-de pygamberlik Ruhunyň nurunyň tarapynda berk duranlar ýeňiş gazanypdyrlar, iş hem olaryň elinde rowaçlanypdyr.” Loma Linda Messages, 33, 34.

The book of Joel is directly identified as “present truth” within the Spirit of Prophecy, which according to John in the book of Revelation is the testimony of Jesus. It is also endorsed directly within the Word of God. Both the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy directly apply the book of Joel to the last days.

Ýowel kitaby pygamberlik Ruhu tarapyndan gönüden-göni “häzirki hakykat” hökmünde kesgitlenýär; Ylham kitabynda Ýohannanyň aýdyşyna görä, bu Isanyň şaýatlygydyr. Şeýle hem ol Hudaýyň Sözüniň özünde gönüden-göni tassyklanýar. Mukaddes Kitap hem, pygamberlik Ruhu hem Ýowel kitabyny soňky günlere gönüden-göni degişli edýär.

> “Each of the ancient prophets spoke less for their own time than for ours, so that their prophesying is in force for us. ‘Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.’ 1 Corinthians 10:11. ‘Not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.’ 1 Peter 1:12. …

> “Gadymy pygamberleriň her biri öz döwründen has köp biziň döwrümiz üçin sözlediler; şonuň üçin olaryň pygamberlikleri biziň üçin güýjündedir. ‘Indi bu zatlaryň hemmesi olara görelde hökmünde boldy; hem-de dünýäniň ahyrlary gelip ýeten biziň nesihatymyz üçin ýazyldy.’ 1 Korintoslylar 10:11. ‘Olaryň özlerine däl-de, size hyzmat edendikleri özlerine aýan edildi; bu zatlar indi size gökden iberilen Mukaddes Ruh arkaly hoş habary wagyz edenler tarapyndan habar berildi; bu zatlara perişdeler-de içgin garamak isleýärler.’ 1 Petrus 1:12. …”

> “The Bible has accumulated and bound up together its treasures for this last generation. All the great events and solemn transactions of Old Testament history have been, and are, repeating themselves in the church in these last days.” Selected Messages, book 3, 338, 339.

> Mukaddes Kitap hazinelerini bu son nesil üçin toplap, bir ýere baglap goýdy. Köne Äht döwrüniň taryhyndaky ähli beýik wakalar we dabarly amallar bu soňky günlerde ybadathanada gaýtalanandyr we gaýtalanýar.” Saýlanan Habarlar, 3-nji kitap, 338, 339.

The prophecy of Joel is “in force” “upon” those “whom the ends of the world are come.” “In force” is simply emphasizing that “present truth” is always a test, and those who fail the test are represented by such biblical characters as Judas.

Yoel pygamberiň pygamberligi “dünýäniň ahyrlary öz üstüne gelenleriň” “üstünde” “güýjündedir.” “Güýjündedir” diýilmegi, diňe “häzirki hakykatyň” hemişe bir synagdygyny nygtamak üçindir, we şol synagdan geçip bilmeýänler Ýahuda ýaly Mukaddes Ýazgylardaky keşpler arkaly görkezilýär.

> “Lesson after lesson fell unheeded on the ears of Judas. How many today follow in his steps. In the light of God’s law, selfish men see their evil characters, but fail to make the required reformation, and go on from one state of sin to another.

> “Ýahuda berlen sapaklaryň her biri onuň gulagyna täsir etmän düşdi. Häzirki wagtda näçe adam onuň yzyna düşýär. Taňrynyň kanunynyň nurunda özüňi söýýän adamlar özleriniň ýaman häsiýetlerini görýärler, emma zerur bolan özgertmäni etmeýärler-de, günäniň bir ýagdaýyndan beýlekisine geçip gidýärler.

> “The lessons of Christ are applicable to our own time and generation. He said, ‘Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word.’ The same testimony is brought to us in these last days as was brought to Judas. The same lessons which he failed to make practical in his life come to men who hear, and yet make a like failure, because they do not put away their sin.” Review and Herald, March 17, 1891.

> “Mesihiň sapaklary biziň öz döwrümize we neslimize hem degişlidir. Ol şeýle diýdi: ‘Men diňe şular üçin däl, eýsem olaryň sözi arkaly Maňa iman etjekler üçin-de doga edýärin.’ Şu soňky günlerde bize-de Ýahuda getirilen şol bir şaýatlyk getirilýär. Ol öz durmuşynda amaly etmegi başarmadyk şol bir sapaklar eşidýän adamlara hem ýetýär, emma olar hem öz günälerini taşlamaýandyklary üçin şoňa meňzeş bir şowsuzlyga uçraýarlar.” Review and Herald, March 17, 1891.

John throughout the book of Revelation typifies God’s last day people, and in being banished to Patmos John represents those who are persecuted in the Sunday law crisis. He states why he was incarcerated.

Ylham kitapçasynda Ýahýa bütin dowamynda Hudaýyň ahyrzamandaky halkynyň nusgasyny aňladýar, Patmosa sürgün edilmeginde bolsa Ýahýa ýekşenbe güni baradaky kanun krizisinde yzarlanýanlary görkezýär. Ol näme sebäpli tussag edilendigini aýdýar.

> I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:9.

> Men hem siziň doganyňyz, jebirde, Isa Mesihiň patyşalygynda we sabyrlylygynda size şärik bolan Ýahýa, Hudaýyň sözi we Isa Mesih baradaky şaýatlyk sebäpli Patmos diýilýän adada boldum. Ylham 1:9.

John was persecuted for the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy. Why are the one hundred and forty-four thousand persecuted because of the Spirit of Prophecy? The first truth the prophet Joel identifies is the apostasy of the Seventh-day Adventist church. When the apostle Peter identified that Pentecost was a fulfillment of the book of Joel, Peter did so in response to the Jews attacking the manifestation of “tongues.” The Jews, who then typified Seventh-day Adventists in the last days, were arguing that Peter and those proclaiming the message were “drunk.” Seventh-day Adventists will fight against the message of the latter rain as did the Jews of Peter’s time. They do so for those who are proclaiming the “present truth” testing message of the latter rain have the “old” foundational truths, for new truth is always based upon old truth. Jeremiah called for God’s people in the time of the latter rain to walk in the old paths and hearken to the sound of the watchman’s trumpet, but they refuse. The foundational “old” truth message is symbolically represented by the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six, which sets forth the covenant relationship in terms of the Sabbath for the land.

Ýahýa Injil we Pygamberlik Ruhu sebäpli yzarlanypdy. Onda näme üçin ýüz kyrk dört müň Pygamberlik Ruhy sebäpli yzarlanýar? Ýowel pygamberiň görkezýän ilkinji hakykaty Ýedinji Gün Adventistler ybadathanasynyň ýüz öwürmesidir. Resul Petrus Pentikostyň Ýowel kitabynyň ýerine ýetmesi bolandygyny görkezende, muny ýehudylaryň “dilleriň” ýüze çykyşyna hüjüm etmegine jogap hökmünde etdi. Şol wagtda soňky günlerde Ýedinji Gün Adventistleri öňe sürýän ýehudylar, Petrusyň we habary wagyz edýänleriň “serhoş” bolandyklaryny aýdýardylar. Ýedinji Gün Adventistleri Petrusyň döwrüniň ýehudylary ýaly soňky ýagyşyň habaryna garşy göreşerler. Muny edýärler, sebäbi soňky ýagyşyň “häzirki hakykat” synag habaryny wagyz edýänlerde “köne” düýpli hakykatlar bardyr; çünki täze hakykat hemişe köne hakykata esaslanýar. Ýermeýa soňky ýagyş döwründe Hudaýyň halkyny köne ýollarda ýöremäge we gözegçiniň surnaýynyň sesine gulak asmaga çagyrdy, emma olar boýun gaçyrýarlar. Düýpli “köne” hakykat habary, Levitleriň ýigrimi altynjy babyndaky “ýedi wagt” arkaly nyşanlaýyn suratlandyrylýar; bu ýerde ýer üçin Sabat bilen baglanyşykly äht gatnaşyklary beýan edilýär.

> “I saw the nominal church and nominal Adventists, like Judas, would betray us to the Catholics to obtain their influence to come against the truth. The saints then will be an obscure people, little known to the Catholics; but the churches and nominal Adventists who know of our faith and customs (for they hated us on account of the Sabbath, for they could not refute it) will betray the saints and report them to the Catholics as those who disregard the institutions of the people; that is, that they keep the Sabbath and disregard Sunday.

> «Men at boýunça mesihçi bolýan ýygnagy we at boýunça Adventistleri Ýahuda ýaly gördim: olar bize garşy hakykatyň üstüne gelmek üçin olaryň täsirini gazanmak maksady bilen bizi katoliklere satjakdylar. Şonda mukaddesler göze ilmeýän, katoliklere az tanalýan bir halk bolarlar; emma biziň iman-my we däp-dessurlarymyzy bilýän ýygnaklar we at boýunça Adventistler (çünki olar Sabat güni sebäpli bizi ýigrenýärdiler, sebäbi ony inkär edip bilmeýärdiler) mukaddeslere hyýanat edip, olary halkyň düzgünlerini äsgermezlik edýänler hökmünde katoliklere habar bererler; ýagny, olaryň Sabat gününi saklap, ýekşenbe gününe parhsyz garaýandyklaryny.»

> “Then the Catholics bid the Protestants to go forward, and issue a decree that all who will not observe the first day of the week, instead of the seventh day, shall be slain. And the Catholics, whose numbers are large, will stand by the Protestants. The Catholics will give their power to the image of the beast. And the Protestants will work as their mother worked before them to destroy the saints. But before their decree bring or bear fruit, the saints will be delivered by the Voice of God.” Spalding and Magan, 1, 2.

> “Soňra katolikler protestantlara öňe gitmegi buýrarlar hem-de hepdäniň ýedinji gününiň deregine birinji gününi berjaý etmejekleriň ählisiniň öldürilmelidigi barada karar çykararlar. Sanlary köp bolan katolikler protestantlaryň tarapynda durarlar. Katolikler öz güýjüni wagşy haýwanyň şekiline bererler. Protestantlar bolsa özlerinden öň olaryň enesiniň işlän işi ýaly mukaddesleri ýok etmek üçin hereket ederler. Emma olaryň karary netije bermezden we miwe getirmezden öň, mukaddesler Hudaýyň Owazy bilen halas ediler.” Spalding and Magan, 1, 2.

Twice Sister White identifies the “nominal church” and the “nominal Adventists,” while drawing a distinction between the two “nominal groups” and the “Catholics.” The “nominal church” and the “nominal Adventists,” “hated” those represented by Peter and John “on account of the Sabbath, for they could not refute it.” The nominal church and Catholics cannot “refute” the seventh-day Sabbath truth, and “nominal Adventists” cannot “refute” the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six, which is the Sabbath commandment of the land. The nominal church and Catholics cannot “refute” the fact that the seventh-day Sabbath is a “foundational” biblical truth, and “nominal Adventists” cannot “refute” the fact that the “seven times” of Leviticus twenty-six is a “foundational” Millerite truth.

Waýt uayt Sister Waýt “atçylykly ybadathanany” we “atçylykly Adventistleri” görkezýär, şol bir wagtyň özünde bu iki “atçylykly topar” bilen “katolikleri” biri-birinden tapawutlandyrýar. “Atçylykly ybadathana” we “atçylykly Adventistler” Peter bilen Ýuhanna arkaly şekillendirilenleri “Şenbe güni sebäpli ýigrenýärdiler, çünki olar ony ret edip bilmeýärdiler.” Atçylykly ybadathana bilen katolikler ýedinji günüň Şenbe hakykatyny “ret edip” bilmeýärler, hem-de “atçylykly Adventistler” Levililer ýigrimi altydaky “ýedi wagty” — ýurduň Şenbe buýrugyny — “ret edip” bilmeýärler. Atçylykly ybadathana bilen katolikler ýedinji günüň Şenbesiniň Mukaddes Kitaba degişli “esas goýujy” bir hakykatdygyny “ret edip” bilmeýärler, hem-de “atçylykly Adventistler” Levililer ýigrimi altydaky “ýedi wagtyň” “esas goýujy” Millerit hakykatydygyny “ret edip” bilmeýärler.

John’s captivity on Patmos represents the one hundred and forty-four thousand who uphold both the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy, and who are especially persecuted from outside over the seventh-day Sabbath and persecuted from inside over the seventh-year Sabbath for the land. For this reason, John’s testimony of why he was being persecuted in verse nine is followed with verse ten’s Sabbath and the message from the past (“behind”) from the “great voice” as of a “trumpet.”

Ýahýanyň Patmosdaky ýesirligi, Mukaddes Kitaby hem-de Pygamberlik Ruhuny berk tutýan ýüz kyrk dört müňi aňladýar; olar aýratyn-da daşardan ýedinji günüň Sabaty sebäpli yzarlanýar we içeriden bolsa ýer üçin ýedinji ýylyň Sabaty sebäpli yzarlanýar. Şonuň üçin hem, dokuzynjy aýatda Ýahýanyň näme sebäpli yzarlanýandygy baradaky şaýatlygyndan soň, onunjy aýatda Sabat hem-de “beýik sesden”, sanki “surnaýdan” gelen, geçmişden (“arka tarapyndan”) bolan habar gelýär.

> I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet. Revelation 1:9, 10.

> Men hem doganyňyz, muşakgatda, Isa Mesihiň Patyşalygynda we sabyrlylygynda hemraňyz bolan Ýahýa, Hudaýyň sözi we Isa Mesihiň şaýatlygy üçin Patmos diýilýän adada boldum. Rebbiň gününde Ruhdadym, we arkamdan surnaýyň sesine meňzeş beýik bir ses eşitdim. Ylham 1:9, 10.

John represents those who at 9/11 heard the trumpet voice of the angel of Revelation eighteen calling for God’s people to return to Jeremiah’s “old paths.” That great voice was also the warning of the seventh trumpet, which is also the third woe.

Ýahýa 9/11-de Ylham kitabyň on sekizinji babyndaky perişdäniň Hudaýyň halkyny Ýeremiýanyň “köne ýollaryna” gaýdyp gelmäge çagyrýan surnaý sesini eşidenleri aňladýar. Şol beýik ses ýedinji surnaýyň duýduryşy hem bolupdy; ol şol bir wagtda üçünji hasratdyr.

Sister White recorded that the “Bible has accumulated and bound up together its treasures for this last generation.” The book of Joel is one of the biblical “treasures” that is present truth in the “last days.” At the time of Pentecost Peter identified that it was the book of Joel that was then being fulfilled. Peter, as with Joel, “spoke less for” the time period of Pentecost than for our “time.” The time period of Pentecost was the early rain for the Christian Dispensation. Pentecost marks the beginning of the Christian Dispensation, and in so doing it illustrates the end of the Christian Dispensation. The end of the Christian Dispensation is the time of the latter rain as typified by Pentecost. Peter is therefore a symbol of God’s people in the end of the Christian Dispensation who identify the fulfillment of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit by employing the book of Joel to do so.

Uýam Waýt Mukaddes Kitabyň öz hazynalaryny şu ahyrky nesil üçin ýygnap, bir ýere baglap goýandygyny ýazyp geçdi. Ýoel kitaby “ahyrky günlerde” häzirki hakykat bolan Mukaddes Kitapdaky “hazynalaryň” biridir. Pentekost döwründe Petrus hut şol wagtda ýerine ýetirilýärdi diýip, Ýoel kitabyny görkezdi. Petrus hem, Ýoel ýaly, Pentekost döwrüden has az derejede biziň “wagtymyz” üçin sözledi. Pentekost döwri Mesihi döwri üçin irki ýagyşdy. Pentekost Mesihi döwrüniň başlangyjyny belleýär, şeýle etmek bilen hem Mesihi döwrüniň soňuny şekillendirýär. Mesihi döwrüniň soňy Pentekost arkaly nusgalanan soňky ýagyş wagtydyr. Şonuň üçin Petrus Mesihi döwrüniň ahyrynda Mukaddes Ruhuň dökülip berilmeginiň ýerine ýetmegini muny etmek üçin Ýoel kitabyny ulanyp anyklaýan Hudaýyň halkynyň nyşanydyr.

> But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Acts 2:14–21.

> Emma Petrus on birisi bilen bile turup, sesini beýgeldip, olara şeýle diýdi: «Eý, Ýahuda adamlary we Iýerusalimde ýaşaýanlaryňyz hemmesi, muny biliň we sözlerime gulak asyň. Sebäbi bular siziň çak edişiňiz ýaly serhoş däldirler, çünki indi günüň diňe üçünji sagadydyr. Emma bu Ýoel pygamber arkaly aýdylan zatdyr: “Hudaý diýýär: ahyrky günlerde Öz Ruhumdan ähli teniň üstüne dökerin; siziň ogullaryňyz we gyzlaryňyz pygamberlik ederler, ýaşlaryňyz görnüşler görerler, gartaşanlaryňyz düýşler görerler. Şeýle hem şol günlerde hyzmatkärlerimiň we gyrnaklarymyň üstüne Öz Ruhumdan dökerin, olar hem pygamberlik ederler. Men ýokarda asmanda gudratlar, aşakda ýerde alamatlar görkezerin: gan, ot we tüsse bugy. Rebbiň beýik we şöhratly güni gelmezinden öň gün garaňkylyga, aý gana öwrüler. Şonda Rebbiň adyny çagyran her kim halas bolar.” Resullaryň Işleri 2:14–21.

To be a successful student of prophecy requires a settled understanding that the end of the world is illustrated “line upon line” within the historical narrative of Scripture. Connected with this truth is that the prophets themselves represent God’s people in the last days. Joel places his book in the last days for it announces the approach of the “day of the Lord.”

Pygamberlik baradaky ylymda üstünlikli talyp bolmak üçin, dünýäniň soňunyň Mukaddes Ýazgylaryň taryhy beýanatynyň içinde “setir üstüne setir” görnüşinde görkezilýändigine berk ornaşan düşünje zerurdyr. Bu hakykat bilen baglanyşykly başga bir zat hem şudur: pygamberleriň özleri ahyrky günlerde Hudaýyň halkyny aňladýarlar. Ýoel öz kitabyny ahyrky günlere ýerleşdirýär, çünki ol “Rebbiň gününiň” golaýlaşýandygyny yglan edýär.

> Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand. Joel 2:1.

> Sionda surna çalyň we mukaddes dagymda howsala sesi çykaryň; ýurduň ähli ýaşaýjylary titreşsin; çünki Rebbiň güni gelýär, ol golaýlap geldi. Ýowel 2:1.

A “trumpet” as a symbol, among other meanings, represents a warning message. As a symbol a trumpet may represent a period of time or a point in time, or both—based upon context. A trumpet also represents judgment. The feast of trumpets, ten days before the Day of Atonement was a warning of approaching judgment.

Bir “surnaý” nyşan hökmünde, beýleki manylary bilen birlikde, duýduryş habaryny aňladýar. Nyşan hökmünde surnaý, mazmuna görä, wagt döwrüni ýa-da belli bir pursady, ýa-da olaryň ikisini hem aňladyp biler. Surnaý şeýle hem höküm-jazany aňladýar. Ylalaşyk Gününiň öňüsyrasynda, on gün öň bellenilýän surnaýlar baýramy, golaýlap gelýän höküm-jaza hakynda duýduryşdy.

The “day of the Lord” represents either a point in time or a period of time, based upon the context of the passage where the “day of the Lord” is employed. The “day of the Lord” can be a symbol of the executive judgment represented as the seven last plagues, or it can be the executive judgment at the end of the thousand-year millennium. In either case, the trumpet is identifying God’s executive judgment. The “day of the Lord” therefore can represent the point where God’s punishment is delivered or the period of time when God’s punishments are delivered.

“Rebbiň güni” diýlen aňlatma, onuň ulanylýan aýatynyň mazmunyna görä, ýa bir wagt nokadyny, ýa-da belli bir wagt döwrüni aňladýar. “Rebbiň güni” ýedi soňky bela hökmünde görkezilýän ýerine ýetiriji hökümiň nyşany bolup biler, ýa-da müň ýyllyk döwriň ahyryndaky ýerine ýetiriji höküm bolup biler. Her iki ýagdaýda-da surnaý Hudaýyň ýerine ýetiriji hökümini görkezýär. Şonuň üçin “Rebbiň güni” Hudaýyň jezasy berilýän pursaty hem, Hudaýyň jezalary berilýän wagt döwrüni hem aňladyp biler.

A “trumpet” as with the “day of the Lord” can represent a point and a period of time as witnessed to in the historical points and periods represented by the seven trumpets of Revelation eight and nine. The “day of the Lord” that Joel is representing with the “trumpet” that is to be blown—is both a point in time and also a period of time which begins when the judgment of the dead ended and the judgment of the living began. On 9/11, a trumpet was blown marking the arrival of the judgment of the living as a point in time, and also marking 9/11 as the beginning of the period of the judgment of the living.

«Rebbiň güni» bilen baglanyşykly «surnaý» hem, Ylham kitabynyň sekizinji we dokuzynjy baplarynda beýan edilen ýedi surnaýyň şekillendirýän taryhy pursatlarynda we döwürlerinde şaýatlyk edilişi ýaly, bir pursady hem, bir döwri hem aňladyp biler. Ýoýeliň üflemegi buýrulan «surnaý» arkaly beýan edýän «Rebbiň güni» hem wagt taýdan bir pursatdyr, hem-de ölüleriň höküm edilmegi tamamlananda we dirileriň höküm edilmegi başlananda başlanýan bir döwürdir. 11-nji sentýabrda, dirileriň höküm edilmeginiň wagt taýdan bir pursat hökmünde gelip ýetendigini belläp, şol bir wagtda hem 11-nji sentýabry dirileriň höküm edilmegi döwrüniň başlangyjy hökmünde aňladýan bir surnaý üflendi.

> Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the Lord your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly. Joel 2:12–15.

> Şonuň üçin hem indi Reb şeýle diýýär: ähli ýüregiňiz bilen, agyz beklemek, aglamak we ýas tutmak bilen Maňa dolanyň. Egin-eşigiňizi däl-de, ýüregiňizi ýyrtyň, Hudaýyňyz Rebbe dolanyň; çünki Ol rehimdar we mähirli, gazaba haýal, beýik söýgä baýdyr, betbagtçylyk indermekden ýüz dönderýändir. Kim bilýär, belki, Ol ýene dolanyp, rehime geler-de, Özünden soň bereket galdyrar, ýagny Hudaýyňyz Rebbe hödürlenjek galla sadakasyny we içgi sadakasyny. Sionda surnaý çalyň, agyz beklemegi mukaddes ediň, dabaraly ýygnak çagyryň. Ýowel 2:12–15.

This is the second time Joel commands that a trumpet be blown. The “trumpets” in Joel are both warnings of the approaching executive judgment of the seven last plagues, and are set within the context of the Laodicean call for repentance and the imminent close of probation.

Bu, Ýoýlyň surnaý çalynmagyny buýurýan ikinji gezekdir. Ýoýldaky “surnaýlar” hem ýedi soňky belanyň ýetip gelýän ýerine ýetiriji höküminiň duýduryşlarydyr, hem-de Laodikýa ybadathanasyna toba etmäge çagyryşyň hem-de synag möhletiniň golaýda tamamlanjakdygynyň çäginde ýerleşdirilendir.

> Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Isaiah 58:1.

> Batly gygyr, saklanma; sesiňi surnaý kimin göter, halkyma olaryň günäsini, Ýakubyň öýüne bolsa olaryň etmişlerini görkez. Işaýa 58:1.

Isaiah, Joel, John and Peter are all representing the one hundred and forty-four thousand of the last days, as does Jeremiah who identifies when the trumpet is to be sounded.

Işaýa, Ýowel, Ýahýa we Petrus hemmesi soňky günleriň ýüz kyrk dört müňüni aňladýarlar; surnaýyň haçan çalynmalydygyny görkezýän Ýeremiýa hem şonuň ýaly edýär.

> Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. Jeremiah 6:16, 17.

> Reb şeýle diýýär: Ýollarda duruň, serediň we gadymy ýodalary soraň, ýagşy ýol nirede bolsa, şol ýolda ýörüň; şonda janlaryňyz üçin rahatlyk taparsyňyz. Emma olar: «Biz şol ýolda ýöremeris» diýdiler. Şeýle hem Men üstüňizden gözegçiler goýdum we: «Surnaý sesine gulak asyň» diýdim. Emma olar: «Biz gulak asmarys» diýdiler. Ýeremiýa 6:16, 17.

The trumpet sounded in these last days at 9/11, and the latter rain then began to fall upon those who chose the good way and walked therein. It is then that the angel of Revelation eighteen descended.

Şu ahyrzaman günlerinde surna 9/11-de ýaňlandy, şondan soň gowy ýoly saýlap, şol ýolda ýöreýänleriň üstüne soňky ýagyş ýagyp başlady. Hut şonda Ylhamyň on sekizinji babyndaky perişde aşak indi.

> “The latter rain is to fall upon the people of God. A mighty angel is to come down from heaven, and the whole earth is to be lighted with his glory.” Review and Herald, April 21, 1891.

> “Soňky ýagyş Hudaýyň halkynyň üstüne ýagmalydyr. Güýçli bir perişde asmandan inmeli, we bütin ýer onuň şöhraty bilen ýagtyldylmalydyr.” Review and Herald, 1891-nji ýylyň 21-nji apreli.

When the great buildings of New York were brought down on 9/11, the mighty angel descended and the latter rain began to fall.

9/11-de Nýu-Ýorkuň beýik binalary ýykylan mahaly, kuwwatly perişde indi we ahyrky ýagyş ýagyp başlady.

> “Now comes the word that I have declared that New York is to be swept away by a tidal wave? This I have never said. I have said, as I looked at the great buildings going up there, story after story, ‘What terrible scenes will take place when the Lord shall arise to shake terribly the earth! Then the words of Revelation 18:1–3 will be fulfilled.’ The whole of the eighteenth chapter of Revelation is a warning of what is coming on the earth. But I have no light in particular in regard to what is coming on New York, only that I know that one day the great buildings there will be thrown down by the turning and overturning of God’s power. From the light given me, I know that destruction is in the world. One word from the Lord, one touch of his mighty power, and these massive structures will fall. Scenes will take place the fearfulness of which we cannot imagine.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.

> “Indi meniň Nýu-Ýorkuň joşgun tolkuny bilen süpürilip ýok ediljekdigini yglan eden sözüm gelýärmi? Men muny hiç wagt aýtmadym. Men, ol ýerde gat-gat bolup beýik binalaryň galdyrylýşyna seredip, şeýle diýdim: ‘Reb ýer ýüzüni aýylganç sarsdyrmak üçin ýerinden galanda, nähili elhenç wakalar bolup geçer! Şonda Ylham 18:1–3-däki sözler berjaý bolar.’ Ylham kitabynyň on sekizinji bapynyň ählisi ýer ýüzüne geljek zatlar barada duýduryşdyr. Emma Nýu-Ýorkuň başyna aýratynlykda näme geljekdigi babatda maňa anyk nur berlen däldir; diňe bir zady bilýärin: bir gün ol ýerdäki beýik binalar Hudaýyň güýjüniň öwrüp-agdaryjy täsiri bilen ýere ýykylar. Maňa berlen nurdan men ýok edilişiň dünýäde bardygyny bilýärin. Rebden çykjak bir söz, Onuň kuwwatly güýjüniň bir degişi, ine, şol ägirt desgalary ýykyp gaçar. Biz onuň nähili gorkunçdygyny göz öňüne hem getirip bilmejek wakalar bolup geçer.” Review and Herald, July 5, 1906.

On 9/11 the latter rain began to sprinkle in advance of its full outpouring at the Sunday law.

9/11-de soňky ýagşyň doly dökülşi Ýekşenbe kanunynda bolmazdan öň, öňünden sepeläp başlady.

> “The great work of the gospel is not to close with less manifestation of the power of God than marked its opening. The prophecies which were fulfilled in the outpouring of the former rain at the opening of the gospel are again to be fulfilled in the latter rain at its close. Here are ‘the times of refreshing’ to which the apostle Peter looked forward when he said: ‘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.’ Acts 3:19, 20.” The Great Controversy, 611, 612.

> Hoş Habaryň beýik işi, onuň başlananda alamatlanan Hudaýyň güýjüniň zähelu çykyşyndan pes derejede tamamlanmaly däldir. Hoş Habaryň başlanmagynda öňki ýagmyryň dökülmeginde amala aşan pygamberlikler, onuň tamamlanmagynda soňky ýagmyrda ýene-de amala aşmalydyr. Ine, resul Petrusyň garaşan “serginlediş wagtlary” şulardyr; ol şeýle diýdi: “Şonuň üçin toba ediň we ýüz öwüriň, günäleriňiz pozulyp aýrylsyn; Rebbiň huzuryndan serginlediş wagtlary gelsin; we Ol Isany ibersin.” Resullaryň Işleri 3:19, 20. Uly Göreş, 611, 612.

The perfect fulfillment of the “times of refreshing” occurs when you are living, for the warning is to “repent,” which is impossible to do if you are dead. The “times of refreshing” arrives when the “sins” of living souls might still be “blotted out”. The “times of refreshing” began on 9/11, thus identifying the beginning of the judgment of the living. Pentecost is repeated at the close of the gospel dispensation. When the “times of refreshing” arrived, the events typified at Pentecost began to repeat.

“Serginlediş döwürleriniň” kämil ýerine ýetmesi seniň dirikäň bolup geçýär, çünki duýduryş “toba etmäge” diýilýär, emma eger ölen bolsaň, muny etmek mümkin däldir. “Serginlediş döwürleri” diri janlaryň “günäleriniň” heniz hem “öçürilip taşlanyp” bilinjek wagtynda gelýär. “Serginlediş döwürleri” 9/11-de başlandy; şeýlelikde bu diri bolanlaryň höküminiň başlangyjyny kesgitleýär. Hoş Habar döwrüniň ahyrynda Pentikost gaýtalanýar. “Serginlediş döwürleri” gelende, Pentikostda öňden nusga edilip görkezilen wakalar gaýtadan amala aşyrylyp başlandy.

> “It is with an earnest longing that I look forward to the time when the events of the day of Pentecost shall be repeated with even greater power than on that occasion. John says, ‘I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.’ Then, as at the Pentecostal season, the people will hear the truth spoken to them, every man in his own tongue.

> Men Pentikost gününiň wakalarynyň şol pursatdakydan hem has beýik güýç bilen gaýtalanjak wagtyna tüýs ýürekden güýçli intizar bilen garaşýaryn. Ýahýa şeýle diýýär: “Men gökden inip gelýän başga bir perişdäni gördüm; onuň uly güýji bardy, we ýer onuň şöhraty bilen ýagtyldy.” Şonda, Pentikost döwründäki ýaly, adamlar hakykaty özlerine aýdylýanyny, her kim öz ene dilinde eşider.

> “God can breathe new life into every soul that sincerely desires to serve Him, and can touch the lips with a live coal from off the altar, and cause them to become eloquent with His praise. Thousands of voices will be imbued with the power to speak forth the wonderful truths of God’s Word. The stammering tongue will be unloosed, and the timid will be made strong to bear courageous testimony to the truth. May the Lord help His people to cleanse the soul temple from every defilement, and to maintain such a close connection with Him that they may be partakers of the latter rain when it shall be poured out.” Review and Herald, July 20, 1886.

> “Hudaýa ak ýürekden hyzmat etmegi arzuw edýän her bir jana Hudaý täze ýaşaýyş dem berip biler; Ol gurbanlyk ojagyndan alnan gyzgyn köz bilen olaryň dodaklaryna degip, olary Öz öwgi-şöhraty bilen joşup gepleýän edip biler. Müňlerçe ses Hudaýyň Sözüniň ajaýyp hakykatlaryny yglan etmek güýji bilen doly bolar. Düdükleýän dil açylar, çekinjeňler bolsa hakykat barada gaýduwsyz şaýatlyk etmek üçin güýçlendiriler. Reb Öz halkyna jan ybadathanasyny her dürli hapaçylykdan arassalamaga we Özi bilen şeýle bir ýakyn gatnaşygy saklamaga kömek etsin, şonda olar guýuljak soňky ýagşyň gatnaşyjylary bolup bilerler.” Review and Herald, July 20, 1886.

> And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep, And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof.

> Soňra meniň bilen gepleşen perişde ýene gelip, meni uýkudan oýarylan adam ýaly oýardy. Ol maňa: «Näme görýärsiň?» diýdi. Men: «Seretdim, ine, bütinleý altyndan bolan bir şemdany, onuň depesinde bir jamy, onuň üstünde ýedi çyrasy, depesindäki ýedi çyra üçin ýedi turbasy bardyr; onuň ýanynda-da iki zeýtun agajy bar, biri jamyň sag tarapynda, beýlekisi bolsa onuň çep tarapyndadyr» diýdim.

> So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord? Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord.

> Şeýlelik bilen, men maňa gepleýän perişdä jogap berip diýdim: «Eý agam, bular nämedir?» Şonda maňa gepleýän perişde jogap berip aýtdy: «Bular nämedigini bilmeýärsiňmi?» Men hem diýdim: «Ýok, eý agam.»

> Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. Zechariah 4:1–6.

> Soňra ol maňa jogap berip, şeýle diýdi: Bu Rebbiň Zerubbabele aýdýan sözüdir: «Ne güýç bilen, ne-de gudrat bilen, eýsem Meniň Ruhum bilen», diýip, Hökmürowan Reb aýdýar. Zekerýa 4:1–6.
