Ezekiel chapter eight, sets forth four increasing abominations which represent the four generations of Laodicean Adventism. The rebellion of 1863, produced a counterfeit to the two tables of Habakkuk, just as Aaron had produced an counterfeit image of jealousy, with his golden calf at the very time God was delivering the two tables of the Ten Commandments to Moses. Once Laodicean Adventism had begun the work of removing the foundational truths, as represented in William Miller’s dream, the leadership of the first generation began to reject the authority of the Bible, and then the Spirit of Prophecy. The rebellion had grown to a point where Kellogg’s spiritualism (pantheism), arrived into their history just prior to 1888.

Hizqiyol kitobining sakkizinchi bobi Laodikiyalik adventizmning to‘rt avlodini ifodalovchi tobora kuchayib boruvchi to‘rt jirkanchlikni bayon etadi. 1863-yildagi isyon Habakkukning ikki lavhasining qalbakisini yuzaga keltirdi; xuddi Horun oltin buzoq bilan rashkning qalbaki tasvirini yasagani kabi, ayni o‘sha paytda Xudo O‘n Amrning ikki lavhasini Musoga berayotgan edi. Laodikiyalik adventizm Uilyam Millerning tushida ifodalanganidek, asosiy haqiqatlarni olib tashlash ishini boshlagach, birinchi avlod rahbariyati avval Muqaddas Kitobning hokimiyatini, so‘ngra esa Bashorat Ruhini rad eta boshladi. Isyon shunday bir darajaga yetdiki, Kelloggning spiritizmi (panteizmi) 1888-yildan sal oldin ularning tarixiga kirib keldi.

At the rebellion of 1888, the spiritualism represented by Ezekiel’s chambers of imagery reached a point where the messengers of Minneapolis, and the prophetess and even the Holy Spirit were rejected.

1888-yildagi isyon chog‘ida, Hizqiyoning tasvirlar xonalari bilan ifodalangan spiritizm shunday bir nuqtaga yetdiki, Minneapolisning xabarchilari, payg‘ambar ayol va hatto Muqaddas Ruh ham rad etildi.

> “We have seen in our experience that when the Lord sends rays of light from the open door of the sanctuary to His people, Satan stirs up the minds of many. But the end is not yet. There will be those who will resist the light and crowd down those whom God has made His channels to communicate light. Spiritual things are not spiritually discerned. The watchmen have not kept pace with the opening providence of God, and the real heaven-sent message and messengers are scorned.

> “Biz o‘z tajribamizda ko‘rdikki, Rabbiy O‘z xalqiga ma’baddagi ochiq eshikdan nur nurlarini yuborganida, Shayton ko‘plarning ongini qo‘zg‘atadi. Ammo hali oxiri emas. Nurga qarshilik ko‘rsatadigan va Xudo nurni yetkazish uchun O‘z kanallari qilganlarni bosib tushiradiganlar bo‘ladi. Ruhiy narsalar ruhiy tarzda farqlanmayapti. Qo‘riqchilar Xudoning ochilib borayotgan inoyatli tadbiri bilan hamqadam bo‘lmadilar, va chinakam osmondan yuborilgan xabar hamda xabarchilar mensimay qaralmoqda.”

> “There will go from this meeting men who claim to know the truth who are gathering about their souls the garments not woven in the loom of heaven. The spirit that they have received here will be carried with them. I tremble for the future of our cause. Those who do not in this place yield to the evidence God has given will war against their brethren whom God is using. They will make it very hard, when opportunities shall come where they can carry forward and onward the same kind of warfare they have hitherto engaged in. These men will have opportunities to be convinced that they have been warring against the Holy Spirit of God. Some will be convinced; others will hold firmly their own spirit. They will not die to self and let the Lord Jesus come into their hearts. They will be more and still more deceived until they cannot discern truth and righteousness. They will, under another spirit, seek to place upon the work a mold that God shall not approve; and they will endeavor to act out the attributes of Satan in assuming control of human minds and thus control the work and cause of God.

> “Bu yig‘ilishdan haqiqatni bilamiz deb da’vo qiladigan, ammo o‘z jonlari atrofida osmon dastgohida to‘qilmagan liboslarni to‘playotgan kishilar chiqib ketadilar. Ular bu yerda qabul qilgan ruh o‘zlari bilan birga olib ketiladi. Men ishimizning kelajagi uchun titrayman. Bu yerda Xudo bergan dalillarga bo‘yin egmaganlar, Xudo foydalanayotgan o‘z birodarlariga qarshi urushadilar. Ularga, shu paytgacha shug‘ullanib kelgan o‘sha turdagi kurashni oldinga va yanada ilgariga olib borish imkoniyatlari kelganida, juda og‘ir bo‘ladi. Bu kishilarda Xudoning Muqaddas Ruhiga qarshi urushganliklariga ishonch hosil qilish imkoniyatlari bo‘ladi. Ba’zilari ishonch hosil qiladilar; boshqalari esa o‘z ruhlarida mahkam turadilar. Ular o‘zlikka o‘lmaydilar va Rabbiy Iso qalblariga kirishiga yo‘l qo‘ymaydilar. Ular tobora ko‘proq aldanadilar, oxiri haqiqat bilan solihlikni ajrata olmaydigan bo‘lib qoladilar. Ular boshqa bir ruh ta’siri ostida ishga Xudo ma’qullamaydigan bir qolipni singdirishga urinadilar; va inson aqlarini boshqarishni o‘z qo‘llariga olish orqali shaytonning sifatlarini namoyon etishga, shu tariqa Xudoning ishini va davasini boshqarishga harakat qiladilar.”

> “Had our brethren fasted and prayed and humbled their hearts before God at this meeting, and sat down calmly to investigate the Scriptures together, then God would have been glorified. But the spirit of prejudice that was brought to that meeting closed the door to the richest blessing of God, and those who had this spirit will not be in a favorable position to see light until they repent before God and have some sense of how near they have come to doing despite to the Holy Spirit and having another spirit.” The 1888 Materials, 832.

> “Agar bu yig‘ilishda birodarlarimiz ro‘za tutib, ibodat qilib, Xudo oldida yuraklarini kamtar tutganlarida va Muqaddas Yozuvlarni birgalikda osoyishtalik bilan tekshirish uchun o‘tirganlarida edi, unda Xudo ulug‘langan bo‘lur edi. Ammo o‘sha yig‘ilishga olib kelingan xurofot ruhi Xudoning eng boy barakasiga eshikni yopdi, va bu ruhga ega bo‘lganlar, Xudo oldida tavba qilmagunlaricha hamda Muqaddas Ruhga qarshi chiqish va boshqa bir ruhga ega bo‘lishga qanchalik yaqin kelib qolganlarini bir qadar anglamagunlaricha, nurni ko‘rish uchun qulay holatda bo‘lmaydilar.” The 1888 Materials, 832.

After 1888, Sister White “trembled for the future of” God’s church and work. She saw that the meeting would produce a continued spiritual warfare among the men that were leaders of Laodicean Adventism, and the controversy of “the daily,” is evidence that her predictions were fulfilled upon that very generation. A warfare was then carried on by men who did not “yield to the evidence God had given” to confirm the “heaven sent message and messengers,” and those men made war against “the Holy Spirit of God.” The second generation watched as the publishing house and sanitarium were burnt to the ground by the fires of God’s judgment.

1888-yildan keyin Opa Uayt Xudoning jamoati va ishining “kelajagi uchun titradi”. U bu yig‘ilish Laodikeya adventizmining yetakchilari bo‘lgan kishilar orasida davomli ruhiy kurashni yuzaga keltirishini ko‘rdi va “kundalik” haqidagi bahs uning bashoratlari aynan o‘sha avlod ustida amalga oshganining dalilidir. Shundan so‘ng, “osmondan yuborilgan xabar va xabarchilar”ni tasdiqlash uchun Xudo bergan “dalillarga bo‘ysunmagan” kishilar tomonidan kurash olib borildi va o‘sha kishilar “Xudoning Muqaddas Ruhiga” qarshi urush qildilar. Ikkinchi avlod nashriyot va sanatoriyaning Xudo hukmining olovlari bilan kulga aylantirilganini ko‘rdi.

> “Today I received a letter from Elder Daniells regarding the destruction of the Review office by fire. I feel very sad as I consider the great loss to the cause. I know that this must be a very trying time for the brethren in charge of the work and for the employees of the office. I am afflicted with all who are afflicted. But I was not surprised by the sad news, for in the visions of the night I have seen an angel standing with a sword as of fire stretched over Battle Creek. Once, in the daytime, while my pen was in my hand, I lost consciousness, and it seemed as if this sword of flame were turning first in one direction and then in another. Disaster seemed to follow disaster because God was dishonored by the devising of men to exalt and glorify themselves.

> «Bugun men Elder Daniellsdan Review idorasining yong‘in oqibatida vayron bo‘lgani haqida maktub oldim. Bu ishga yetgan ulkan talafotni mulohaza qilar ekanman, qalbim nihoyatda g‘amga botadi. Bilamanki, bu ish uchun mas’ul bo‘lgan birodarlar hamda idora xodimlari uchun nihoyatda og‘ir bir sinov vaqtidir. Men azob chekayotganlarning barchasi bilan birga azob chekaman. Ammo bu qayg‘uli xabardan hayratga tushmadim, chunki tungi vahiylarda men Battle Creek uzra cho‘zilgan olovsimon qilichni tutgan bir farishtani ko‘rgan edim. Bir safar, kunduzi, qo‘limda qalam turganida, hushimni yo‘qotdim va go‘yo bu alangali qilich avval bir tomonga, so‘ng boshqa tomonga burilayotgandek tuyuldi. Falokat ortidan falokat kelayotgandek edi, chunki Xudo o‘zlarini yuksaltirib, ulug‘lash uchun insonlar o‘ylab topgan rejalari bilan tahqirlangan edi.»

> “This morning I was drawn out in earnest prayer that the Lord would lead all who are connected with the Review and Herald office to make diligent search, that they may see wherein they have disregarded the many messages God has given.

> “Bugun ertalab men chin dildan ibodat qilishga undaldimki, Rabbiy Review and Herald idorasi bilan aloqador bo‘lganlarning barchasini sidqidildan izlanishga boshlasinki, toki ular Xudo bergan ko‘plab xabarlarni qaysi jihatdan mensimay qo‘yganliklarini ko‘rsinlar.

> “Sometime ago the brethren at the Review office asked my counsel about the erection of another building. I then said that if those who were in favor of adding another building to the Review and Herald office had the future mapped out before them, if they could see what would be in Battle Creek, they would have no question about putting up another building there. God said: ‘My word has been despised; and I will turn and overturn.’

> “Bir muncha vaqt ilgari Review idorasidagi birodarlar mendan yana bir bino qurilishi masalasida maslahat so‘radilar. O‘shanda men shunday degan edim: agar Review and Herald idorasiga yana bir bino qo‘shish tarafdorlari kelajakning butun manzarasini o‘z oldilarida ko‘ra olganlarida, agar ular Battle Creekda nima bo‘lishini ko‘ra olganlarida, u yerda yana bir bino qurish masalasida ularda hech qanday savol bo‘lmas edi. Xudo dedi: ‘Mening kalomim mensilmadi; va Men burib yuboraman va ag‘darib yuboraman.’”

> “At the General Conference, held in Battle Creek in 1901, the Lord gave His people evidence that He was calling for reformation. Minds were convicted, and hearts were touched; but thorough work was not done. If stubborn hearts had then broken in penitence before God, there would have been seen one of the greatest manifestations of the power of God that has ever been seen. But God was not honored. The testimonies of His Spirit were not heeded. Men did not separate from the practices that were in decided opposition to the principles of truth and righteousness, which should ever be maintained in the Lord’s work.

> 1901-yilda Battle Creekda bo‘lib o‘tgan Bosh Konferensiyada Rabbiy O‘z xalqiga U islohotga da’vat qilayotganining dalillarini berdi. Aql-u onglar mahkum bo‘ldi, yuraklar ta’sirlandi; ammo ish chuqur va mukammal tarzda bajarilmadi. Agar o‘sha paytda qaysar yuraklar Xudo oldida tavba bilan sinib bo‘ysunganida edi, Xudoning qudratining hozirgacha ko‘rilgan eng buyuk namoyonlaridan biri ko‘rilgan bo‘lar edi. Ammo Xudo ulug‘lanmadi. Uning Ruhining guvohliklariga quloq solinmadi. Odamlar Rabbiyning ishida doimo saqlanishi lozim bo‘lgan haqiqat va solihlik tamoyillariga ochiqdan-ochiq zid bo‘lgan amallardan ajralmadilar.

> “The messages to the church of Ephesus and to the church in Sardis have been often repeated to me by the One who gives me instruction for His people. ‘Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith He that holdeth the seven stars in His right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; I know thy works, and the labor, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: and hast borne, and hast patience, and for My name’s sake hast labored, and hast not fainted. Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.’ Revelation 2:1–5.

> “Efes jamoatiga va Sardisdagi jamoatga yo‘llangan xabarlar O‘z xalqiga doir menga ta’lim beruvchi Zot tomonidan menga ko‘p bora takrorlangan. ‘Efes jamoatining farishtasiga yoz: O‘ng qo‘lida yetti yulduzni ushlagan, yetti oltin shamdon o‘rtasida yuruvchi Zot shunday demoqda: Men sening ishlaringni, mehnatingni va sabr-toqatingni bilaman, yovuz bo‘lganlarga toqat qila olmasligingni ham bilaman; o‘zlarini havoriy deb aytib, aslida unday bo‘lmaganlarni sinab ko‘rding va ularni yolg‘onchi deb topding; sen sabr qilding, toqat qilding, Mening nomim uchun mehnat qilding va holdan toymading. Lekin senga qarshi shuni aytaman: sen o‘z birinchi muhabbatingni tark etding. Shuning uchun qayerdan qulaganingni esla, tavba qil va avvalgi ishlarni qil; aks holda, tavba qilmasang, Men tez orada oldingga kelaman va shamdoningni o‘z o‘rnidan olib tashlayman.’ Vahiy 2:1–5.”

> “‘And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith He that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead. Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God. Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.’ Revelation 3:1–3.

> “‘Sardisdagi jamoatning farishtasiga yoz: Xudoning yetti Ruhi va yetti yulduzga ega bo‘lgan Zot shunday deydi: Men sening ishlaringni bilaman; sen tiriksan degan noming bor, ammo o‘liksan. Hushyor bo‘l va o‘lish arafasida turgan, qolgan narsalarni quvvatlantir; chunki Men ishlaringni Xudo oldida mukammal topmadim. Shunday ekan, qanday qabul qilib eshitganingni esla, mahkam tut va tavba qil. Bas, agar hushyor bo‘lmasang, Men senga o‘g‘ri kabi kelaman, va qaysi soatda ustingga kelishimni bilmaysan.’ Vahiy 3:1–3.”

> “We are seeing the fulfillment of these warnings. Never have scriptures been more strictly fulfilled than these have been.

> “Biz bu ogohlantirishlarning amalga oshayotganini ko‘rmoqdamiz. Muqaddas Yozuvlar hech qachon bulardek qat’iy tarzda bajo keltirilgan emas.”

> “Men may erect the most carefully constructed, fireproof buildings, but one touch of God’s hand, one spark from heaven, will sweep away every refuge.

> «Odamlar eng puxta qurilgan, yong‘inga chidamli binolarni barpo etishlari mumkin, ammo Xudoning qo‘lining bir tegishi, osmondan kelgan bir uchqun har qanday panohni supurib ketadi.»

> “It has been asked if I have any advice to give. I have already given the advice that God has given me, hoping to prevent the falling of the fiery sword that was hanging over Battle Creek. Now that which I dreaded has come—the news of the burning of the Review and Herald building. When this news came, I felt no surprise, and I had no words to speak. What I have had to say from time to time in warnings has had no effect except to harden those who heard, and now I can only say: I am so sorry, so very sorry, that it was necessary for this stroke to come. Light enough has been given. If it were acted upon, further light would not be needed.” Testimonies, volume 8, 97–99.

> “Mendan biror maslahat bormi, deb so‘ralgan edi. Men allaqachon Xudo menga bergan maslahatni aytganman, Battle Creek ustida osilib turgan olovli qilichning qulashining oldini olish umidida. Endi esa men qo‘rqqan narsa yuz berdi — Review and Herald binosi yonib ketgani haqidagi xabar keldi. Bu xabar kelganda, men hayratlanmadim va aytishga so‘zim ham bo‘lmadi. Men vaqti-vaqti bilan ogohlantirishlar orqali aytishga majbur bo‘lgan gaplarim, eshitganlarning yuragini qotirishdan boshqa ta’sir qilmadi, endi esa men faqat shuni ayta olaman: bundan juda afsusdaman, juda-juda afsusdaman, bu zarbaning kelishi zarur bo‘lib qolgani uchun. Yetarlicha nur berilgan edi. Agar o‘sha nurga amal qilinganida, qo‘shimcha nur kerak bo‘lmas edi.” Testimonies, 8-jild, 97–99.

The second generation of Adventism was not a victory, and in fulfillment of Ezekiel chapter eight, the rebellion only continued to escalate.

Adventizmning ikkinchi avlodi g‘alaba emas edi va Hizqiyol kitobining sakkizinchi bobi bajo bo‘lishida isyon faqat yanada kuchayishda davom etdi.

> “By written messages and by fire the Lord has declared that he wants his people to move out of Battle Creek. May God help us to hear his voice. Does it mean nothing to us that our two great institutions in Battle Creek were swept away by fire? You may say, ‘But the new Sanitarium has many patients.’ Yes; but if there were many thousand patients there, this would be no argument in favor of our people building homes in Battle Creek, and settling there.

> “Rabbiy yozma xabarlar va olov orqali O‘z xalqining Battle Creekdan ko‘chib chiqishini istashini e’lon qildi. Xudo bizga Uning ovozini eshitishda yordam bersin. Battle Creekdagi ikki yirik muassasamiz olov bilan supurib tashlanganining biz uchun hech qanday ma’nosi yo‘qmi? Siz: ‘Ammo yangi Sanitariyada ko‘plab bemorlar bor’, — deyishingiz mumkin. Ha; ammo u yerda ko‘p minglab bemorlar bo‘lgan taqdirda ham, bu xalqimizning Battle Creekda uylar qurib, o‘sha yerga joylashishi foydasiga hech qanday dalil bo‘lolmaydi.”

> “Temptations are increasing. Men are rejecting the light that God has sent in the Testimonies of his Spirit, and they are choosing their own devising and their own plans. Will men continue to separate themselves from God? Must he reveal his displeasure in a still more marked manner than he has already done?” Pamphlets, SpTB06, 45.

> “Vasvasalar kuchayib bormoqda. Odamlar Xudo O‘z Ruhining Guvohliklarida yuborgan nurni rad etmoqdalar va o‘zlarining o‘ylab topgan yo‘llari hamda o‘z rejalarini tanlamoqdalar. Odamlar Xudodan o‘zlarini ajratishda davom etadilarmi? U allaqachon ko‘rsatganidan ham ko‘ra yanada yaqqolroq tarzda O‘z noroziligini namoyon qilishi kerakmi?” Pamphlets, SpTB06, 45.

Men were “choosing their own devising’s and their own plans,” as represented by the seventy elders in the chambers of imagery of Ezekiel chapter eight, who proclaimed, “The Lord seeth us not.” The Lord raised up a prophetess and gave her “open visions” for exactly forty years, until 1884. He placed his signature upon this gift, for He gave it and ended it in a city named Portland, and he gave it for forty years. Just prior to the cessation of “open visions” the ancient men began to undermine the authority of the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy in 1881, and 1882. The “open visions,” then ended in 1884, and in four years the rebellion of Korah, Dathan and Abiram was repeated at the 1888 General Conference.

Erkaklar Hizqiyo kitobining sakkizinchi bobi timsollar xonalaridagi yetmish oqsoqol orqali ifodalanganidek, “o‘z ixtirolari va o‘z rejalari”ni tanlayotgan edilar; ular: “Egamiz bizni ko‘rmaydi”, deb e’lon qilgan edilar. Rabbiy bir payg‘ambar ayolni ko‘tardi va unga to‘la qirq yil davomida, ya’ni 1884 yilgacha, “ochiq vahiylar” berdi. U bu in’omga O‘z muhrini qo‘ydi, chunki Uni bergan ham, Uni yakunlagan ham Portlend nomli shaharda O‘zi bo‘ldi, va Uni qirq yilga berdi. “Ochiq vahiylar” to‘xtashidan sal avval, qadimgi erkaklar 1881 va 1882 yillarda Muqaddas Kitob hamda Bashorat Ruhi hokimiyatini yemira boshladilar. Shunday qilib, “ochiq vahiylar” 1884 yilda tugadi, va to‘rt yil o‘tib, 1888 yilgi Bosh Konferensiyada Qorah, Datan va Abironning isyoni takrorlandi.

The rebellion of 1888, produced an escalation of rebellion that saw God’s direct intervention into the history of Laodicean Adventism as He burnt down the publishing work and the health work. Yet those direct judgments did not deter the rebellion that was under way. In 1919, a Bible Conference took place, where one of the primary rebels of the second generation, William Warren Prescott, the theologian trained in the universities of apostate Protestantism, was the primary leader of pushing the satanic view that claimed “the daily,” represented Christ’s sanctuary work gave a series of presentations.

1888-yildagi isyon, isyonning yanada kuchayishiga sabab bo‘ldi; natijada Xudo Laodikiyadagi Adventizm tarixiga bevosita aralashib, nashriyot ishini hamda sog‘liqni saqlash ishini kuydirib yubordi. Shunga qaramay, bu bevosita hukmlar allaqachon avj olgan isyonni to‘xtata olmadi. 1919-yilda Muqaddas Kitob konferensiyasi bo‘lib o‘tdi; unda ikkinchi avlodning asosiy isyonchilaridan biri, murtad protestantizm universitetlarida tahsil olgan ilohiyotchi Uilyam Uorren Preskott, “kundalik” Masihning ma’baddagi xizmatini ifodalaydi, degan shaytoniy qarashni ilgari surishda bosh yetakchi bo‘lib, bir qator taqdimotlar qildi.

History identified that at that Bible conference in 1919, Prescott presented a gospel that consisted of removing every tenet of the prophetic message of the Millerites. He even attempted to remove the twenty-three hundred days, but could not pull that off. Yet he presented a gospel that was fully void of the prophetic understandings of the Millerites. His gospel was rejected at the meeting, but still those blind leaders decided to take his series of presentations and construct them into a book titled, The Doctrine of Christ. That book became the symbol of the arrival of the third generation of Laodicean Adventism.

Tarix shuni ko‘rsatdiki, 1919-yildagi o‘sha Muqaddas Kitob konferensiyasida Preskott Millerchilar bashoratli xabarining har bir aqidasini olib tashlashdan iborat bo‘lgan bir xushxabarni taqdim etdi. U hatto ikki ming uch yuz kunni ham olib tashlashga urindi, ammo buni uddalay olmadi. Shunga qaramay, u Millerchilarning bashoratli tushunchalaridan butunlay mahrum bo‘lgan bir xushxabarni taqdim etdi. Uning xushxabari yig‘ilishda rad etildi, biroq baribir o‘sha ko‘r yo‘lboshchilar uning ma’ruzalar turkumini olib, ularni The Doctrine of Christ nomli kitobga aylantirishga qaror qildilar. O‘sha kitob Laodikiyaviy Adventizmning uchinchi avlodi kirib kelishining ramziga aylandi.

The book represents another gospel than the Millerite gospel of Habakkuk chapter two, and Paul informs us another gospel is not a gospel at all.

Bu kitob Xabaqquq kitobining ikkinchi bobidagi Milleritlar xushxabaridan boshqa bir xushxabarni ifodalaydi, Pavlus esa bizga boshqa xushxabar aslida umuman xushxabar emasligini bildiradi.

> I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. Galatians 1:6–9.

> Men hayronman, sizlar Masihning inoyatiga chorlagan Zotdan bunchalik tez yuz o‘girib, boshqa bir xushxabarga o‘tib ketibsizlar. Holbuki, u boshqa emas; ammo sizlarni bezovta qilayotgan va Masihning xushxabarini buzib ko‘rsatmoqchi bo‘lgan ayrim kishilar bor. Lekin biz bo‘laylik, yoki osmondan bir farishta bo‘lsin, sizlarga biz va’z qilgan xushxabardan boshqa bir xushxabarni va’z qilsa, la’natlangan bo‘lsin. Avval aytganimizdek, endi yana aytaman: agar kimdir sizlar qabul qilgan xushxabardan boshqa bir xushxabarni va’z qilsa, la’natlangan bo‘lsin. Galatiyaliklarga 1:6–9.

The third generation of Adventism is represented by Ezekiel’s third abomination where the women are weeping for Tammuz. Tammuz was a Mesopotamian deity associated with fertility and the cycles of vegetation. Tammuz was sometimes depicted as a shepherd or a young man, linked to the changing seasons and the growth of crops. Tammuz’s death and subsequent resurrection, was tied to the agricultural calendar. According to the mythology, Tammuz would die or disappear during the summer months, which was seen as a representation of the withering of vegetation in the hot, dry season. The weeping for Tammuz was a mourning ritual that involved lamenting the death or disappearance of Tammuz during the summer months, followed by rejoicing at his resurrection, which symbolized the renewal of vegetation and agricultural life.

Adventizmning uchinchi avlodi Hizqiyolning uchinchi jirkanchligi orqali ifodalanadi; u yerda ayollar Tammuz uchun yig‘lamoqdalar. Tammuz hosildorlik va o‘simliklar davriyati bilan bog‘liq Mesopotamiya ilohi edi. Tammuz ba’zan cho‘pon yoki yosh yigit sifatida tasvirlanar, fasllarning almashinuvi va ekinlarning o‘sishi bilan bog‘lanardi. Tammuzning o‘limi va undan keyingi tirilishi qishloq xo‘jaligi taqvimi bilan bog‘liq edi. Mifologiyaga ko‘ra, Tammuz yoz oylarida o‘lar yoki g‘oyib bo‘lar edi, bu esa issiq va quruq mavsumda o‘simliklarning so‘lishining timsoli deb qaralardi. Tammuz uchun yig‘lash yoz oylarida Tammuzning o‘limi yoki g‘oyib bo‘lishi ustidan aza tutishni o‘z ichiga olgan motam marosimi bo‘lib, undan keyin uning tirilishi munosabati bilan quvonish kelardi; bu esa o‘simliklar va qishloq xo‘jaligi hayotining yangilanishini ramziy tarzda bildirardi.

Weeping for Tammuz represents a counterfeit latter rain message, which is what the gospel of W. W. Prescott represented. The removal of the prophetic foundation, which began in the rebellion of 1863, reached a point in 1919, that Laodicean Adventism allowed the false gospel to be established. That false gospel was based fully upon the methodology of apostate Protestantism. Its original architect was W. W. Prescott, and as with William Miller, both men’s gospel was based upon their foundational understanding of “the daily,” in the book of Daniel. Both gospels are represented in the passage of 2 Thessalonians where Miller first discovered that “the daily,” represented paganism. In the passage there is a class represented by Miller, who accept the truth presented by Paul, and another class who do not possess a love of the truth.

Tammuz uchun yig‘lash soxta keyingi yomg‘ir xabarini ifodalaydi; W. W. Prescottning xushxabari aynan shuni ifodalagan edi. 1863-yildagi isyonda boshlangan bashoratli poydevorning olib tashlanishi 1919-yilda shunday bir nuqtaga yetdiki, Laodikiyachilik Adventizmi soxta xushxabarning o‘rnatilishiga yo‘l qo‘ydi. O‘sha soxta xushxabar butunlay murtad protestantizm metodologiyasiga asoslangan edi. Uning dastlabki me’mori W. W. Prescott edi va William Miller misolida bo‘lgani kabi, har ikki kishining xushxabari ham Doniyor kitobidagi “kundalik” haqidagi asosiy tushunchasiga tayangan edi. Har ikkala xushxabar ham 2 Salonikaliklarga maktubidagi o‘sha parcha orqali ifodalanadi; aynan o‘sha yerda Miller birinchi marta “kundalik”ning majusiylikni ifodalashini kashf etgan edi. O‘sha parchada Miller bilan ifodalangan, Pavlus taqdim etgan haqiqatni qabul qiladigan bir toifa va haqiqatga muhabbatga ega bo‘lmagan boshqa bir toifa tasvirlangan.

One class in the last days, represented by Miller, “recognize” and receive the latter rain, and another class, represented by Prescott, receive strong delusion. The strong delusion they receive is based upon a false gospel, that is no gospel at all, and it identifies a false message of the latter rain. Thus, the third abomination of Ezekiel is the women (churches of Laodicean Adventism), weeping for Tammuz. Their summertime tears (rain), are to produce the fruit of the harvest.

Oxirgi kunlarda Miller bilan ifodalangan bir toifa “keyingi yomg‘ir”ni tan oladi va qabul qiladi, Prescott bilan ifodalangan boshqa bir toifa esa kuchli aldovni qabul qiladi. Ular qabul qiladigan bu kuchli aldanish umuman xushxabar bo‘lmagan soxta xushxabarga asoslangandir va u keyingi yomg‘ir haqidagi soxta xabarni aniqlab beradi. Shunday qilib, Hizqiyodagi uchinchi jirkanchlik — Tammuz uchun yig‘layotgan ayollardir (Laodikiyachi Adventizm jamoatlari). Ularning yoz faslidagi ko‘z yoshlari (yomg‘iri) hosilning mevasini yetishtirishi kerak.

The distinction between two types of latter rain message pervades the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy. The Bible repeatedly identifies that the rain is withheld from a disobedient people.

Muqaddas Kitob va Bashorat Ruhi bo‘ylab so‘nggi yomg‘ir haqidagi xabarning ikki turi o‘rtasidagi farq keng tarqalgan. Muqaddas Kitob qayta-qayta yomg‘ir itoatsiz xalqdan tiyib qo‘yilganini ta’kidlaydi.

> They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man’s, shall he return unto her again? shall not that land be greatly polluted? but thou hast played the harlot with many lovers; yet return again to me, saith the Lord. Lift up thine eyes unto the high places, and see where thou hast not been lien with. In the ways hast thou sat for them, as the Arabian in the wilderness; and thou hast polluted the land with thy whoredoms and with thy wickedness. Therefore the showers have been withholden, and there hath been no latter rain; and thou hadst a whore’s forehead, thou refusedst to be ashamed. Jeremiah 3:1–3.

> Ular aytadilar: Agar erkak o‘z xotinini qo‘yib yuborsa, u undan ketib, boshqa erniki bo‘lib qolsa, u yana uning oldiga qaytarmikan? O‘sha yurt tamomila bulg‘anib ketmaydimi? Ammo sen ko‘p oshiqlar bilan zino qilding; shunga qaramay, Mening oldimga qayt, — deydi Egamiz. Ko‘zlaringni baland joylarga ko‘tarib, qara: qayerda sen bilan yotilmagan joy bor? Yo‘llar bo‘yida sen ular uchun cho‘ldagi arab kabi o‘tirib kutding; va sen o‘z fahshing hamda yovuzliging bilan yurtni bulg‘ading. Shuning uchun yomg‘irlar to‘sib qo‘yildi, so‘nggi yomg‘ir ham bo‘lmadi; sening peshonang fohishaning peshonasidek edi, uyat tortishni rad etding. Yeremiyo 3:1–3.

Laodicean Adventism began playing the harlot in 1863, and ever since then the showers have been withheld. They refuse to be ashamed of their rebellion, and that lack of humility produces a whore’s forehead, and the whore of Bible prophecy is the papacy. The third generation is where the final work of preparing to bow down to the whore of Rome’s mark is accomplished. The preparation for the fourth generation is accomplished in the third generation, by a counterfeit message of the latter rain. As with the rebellion of 1863, and the rebellion of 1888, the rebellion of 1919, are aligned with September 11, 2001, for when the buildings of New York City then came down the mighty angel of Revelation eighteen descended and the genuine latter rain began.

Laodikiyalik Adventizm 1863-yilda fohishalik qila boshladi, va o‘shandan beri yomg‘irlar ushlab qolindi. Ular o‘z isyonlaridan uyalishni rad etadilar, va o‘sha kamtarlikning yo‘qligi fohishaning peshonasini hosil qiladi; Muqaddas Kitob bashoratidagi fohisha esa papalikdir. Uchinchi avlod — Rim fohishasining tamg‘asiga ta’zim qilishga tayyorlanishning yakuniy ishi amalga oshiriladigan avloddir. To‘rtinchi avlod uchun tayyorgarlik uchinchi avlodda so‘nggi yomg‘ir haqidagi qalbaki xabar orqali amalga oshiriladi. 1863-yildagi isyon, 1888-yildagi isyon va 1919-yildagi isyon qanday bo‘lgan bo‘lsa, xuddi shuningdek bular 2001-yil 11-sentabr bilan hamohangdir, chunki o‘sha paytda Nyu-York shahrining binolari qulaganida Vahiy kitobining o‘n sakkizinchi bobidagi qudratli farishta tushib keldi va haqiqiy so‘nggi yomg‘ir boshlandi.

> “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.

> “Keyingi yomg‘ir Xudoning xalqi ustiga yog‘ilishi kerak. Qudratli bir farishta osmondan tushib kelishi kerak, va butun yer uning ulug‘vorligi bilan yoritilishi kerak.” Review and Herald, 1891-yil 21-aprel.

When the latter rain began the ancient men of Laodicean Adventism would not recognize it as the latter rain, for they had been indoctrinated by a false latter rain message, represented by Ezekiel as the women weeping for Tammuz, and in application as a message of peace and safety.

Kechki yomg‘ir boshlanganida, Laodikiyadagi Adventizmning qadimgi oqsoqollari uni kechki yomg‘ir deb tan olmas edilar, chunki ular soxta kechki yomg‘ir xabari bilan indoctrinatsiya qilingan edilar; bu xabar Hizqiyol tomonidan Tammuz uchun yig‘layotgan ayollar timsolida tasvirlangan, tatbiqda esa tinchlik va xavfsizlik haqidagi xabar sifatida namoyon bo‘lgan.

> “Only those who are living up to the light they have will receive greater light. Unless we are daily advancing in the exemplification of the active Christian virtues, we shall not recognize the manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the latter rain. It may be falling on hearts all around us, but we shall not discern or receive it.” Testimonies to Ministers, 507.

> “Faqat o‘zlariga berilgan nurga muvofiq yashayotganlargina yanada buyukroq nurni qabul qiladilar. Agar biz faol masihiy fazilatlarni namoyon etishda kundan-kunga ilgarilab bormasak, Muqaddas Ruhning so‘nggi yomg‘irdagi zohir bo‘lishlarini tan olmaymiz. U atrofimizdagi yuraklarga yog‘ayotgan bo‘lishi mumkin, ammo biz uni na anglaymiz, na qabul qilamiz.” Testimonies to Ministers, 507.

It was impossible for the guardians of the people to recognize the arrival of the latter rain, for their false gospel of a false latter rain, denied the possibility of any manifestation of the power of God as had been in former ages.

Xalqning qo‘riqchilari keyingi yomg‘irning kelganini tanib olishlari mumkin emas edi, chunki ularning soxta keyingi yomg‘ir haqidagi soxta xushxabari, avvalgi asrlarda bo‘lganidek, Xudoning qudratining har qanday namoyon bo‘lishi ehtimolini inkor etar edi.

> “There is to be in the churches a wonderful manifestation of the power of God, but it will not move upon those who have not humbled themselves before the Lord, and opened the door of the heart by confession and repentance. In the manifestation of that power which lightens the earth with the glory of God, they will see only something which in their blindness they think dangerous, something which will arouse their fears, and they will brace themselves to resist it. Because the Lord does not work according to their ideas and expectations, they will oppose the work. ‘Why,’ they say, ‘should not we know the Spirit of God, when we have been in the work so many years?’—Because they did not respond to the warnings, the entreaties of the messages of God, but persistently said, ‘I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing.’ Talent, long experience, will not make men channels of light, unless they place themselves under the bright beams of the Sun of Righteousness, and are called, and chosen, and prepared by the endowment of the Holy Spirit. When men who handle sacred things will humble themselves under the mighty hand of God, the Lord will lift them up. He will make them men of discernment—men rich in the grace of his Spirit. Their strong, selfish traits of character, their stubbornness, will be seen in the light shining from the Light of the world. ‘I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.’ If you seek the Lord with all your heart, he will be found of you.” Review and Herald, December 23, 1890.

> “Jamoatlarda Xudoning qudratining ajoyib bir namoyoni bo‘lishi kerak, ammo bu namoyon Rabbiy oldida o‘zini xo‘rlamagan, e’tirof va tavba orqali yurak eshigini ochmagan kishilarga ta’sir qilmaydi. Yer yuzini Xudoning ulug‘vorligi bilan yoritadigan o‘sha qudratning namoyonida ular, o‘z ko‘rliklari ichida, faqat xavfli deb o‘ylaydigan bir narsani, qo‘rquvlarini qo‘zg‘atadigan bir narsani ko‘radilar va unga qarshi turish uchun o‘zlarini safarbar qiladilar. Rabbiy ularning tasavvurlari va kutishlariga muvofiq ish tutmagani uchun, ular bu ishga qarshi chiqadilar. “Nega,—deydilar ular,—biz shuncha yillardan beri shu ishda bo‘lgan ekanmiz, Xudoning Ruhini tanimasligimiz kerak?”—Chunki ular Xudoning xabarlaridagi ogohlantirishlarga va iltijolarga javob bermadilar, balki qat’iy ravishda: “Men boyman, mol-dunyom ko‘paygan, hech narsaga muhtoj emasman”, dedilar. Iste’dod va uzoq yillik tajriba odamlarni nur kanallariga aylantirmaydi, agar ular o‘zlarini Solihlik Quyoshining yorqin nurlari ostiga qo‘ymasalar hamda Muqaddas Ruhning ato etilishi orqali da’vat etilib, tanlanib, tayyorlanmasalar. Muqaddas narsalar bilan muomala qiladigan kishilar o‘zlarini Xudoning qudratli qo‘li ostida xo‘rlaganlarida, Rabbiy ularni yuksaltiradi. U ularni farosatli kishilar—Uning Ruhining inoyatiga boy kishilar qiladi. Ularning kuchli, xudbin fe’l-atvor xususiyatlari, ularning o‘jarligi, dunyoning Nuridan porlayotgan nurda ko‘rinadi. “Men sening oldingga tez orada kelaman va agar tavba qilmasang, shamdoningni o‘z o‘rnidan olib tashlayman.” Agar sizlar Rabbiy ni butun qalbingiz bilan izlasangiz, U sizlarga topiladi.” Review and Herald, 1890-yil 23-dekabr.

The elders of Ezekiel chapter eight, accepted a gospel of peace and safety in 1919, and when September 11, 2001 arrived the fruit of that escalating rebellion was manifested in their inability to recognize the arrival of the latter rain. In the history beginning at the time of the end in 1989, God repeated the Millerite movement to the very letter. Miller was a symbol of Elijah, and Elijah had straitly told Ahab that there would be no rain, except at the word of Elijah.

Hizqiyo kitobining sakkizinchi bobidagi oqsoqollar 1919-yilda tinchlik va xavfsizlik xushxabarini qabul qildilar, va 2001-yil 11-sentabr kelganda, o‘sha tobora kuchayib borgan isyonning mevasi ularning keyingi yomg‘irning kelishini tanib ololmasliklarida namoyon bo‘ldi. 1989-yilda, oxirzamon boshlangan paytdan boshlanuvchi tarixda, Xudo Milleriylar harakatini harfma-harf takrorladi. Miller Ilyosning timsoli edi, va Ilyos Axabga qat’iy ravishda shunday degan ediki, Ilyosning so‘zisiz yomg‘ir bo‘lmaydi.

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

Keyingi maqolada adventizmning uchinchi avlodi haqidagi ko‘rib chiqishimizni davom ettiramiz.

> “The class who do not feel grieved over their own spiritual declension, nor mourn over the sins of others, will be left without the seal of God. The Lord commissions His messengers, the men with slaughtering weapons in their hands: ‘Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.’

> “O‘zlarining ruhiy tanazzuli ustidan qayg‘urmaydigan va boshqalarning gunohlari ustidan aza tutmaydigan toifa Xudoning muhrisiz qoldiriladi. Rabbiy O‘z xabarchilariga, qo‘llarida qirg‘in qurollari bo‘lgan kishilarga, shunday amr beradi: «Uning ortidan shahar bo‘ylab yuringlar va urib o‘ldiringlar; ko‘zingiz ayamasin, rahm ham qilmanglar: qariyani ham, yoshni ham, qizlarni ham, go‘daklarni ham, ayollarni ham butkul qirib tashlanglar; ammo belgisi bor biror kishiga yaqinlashmanglar; va Mening muqaddas joyimdan boshlanglar. Shunda ular uy oldida turgan qariyalardan boshladilar.»

> “Here we see that the church—the Lord’s sanctuary—was the first to feel the stroke of the wrath of God. The ancient men, those to whom God had given great light and who had stood as guardians of the spiritual interests of the people, had betrayed their trust. They had taken the position that we need not look for miracles and the marked manifestation of God’s power as in former days. Times have changed. These words strengthen their unbelief, and they say: The Lord will not do good, neither will He do evil. He is too merciful to visit His people in judgment. Thus ‘Peace and safety’ is the cry from men who will never again lift up their voice like a trumpet to show God’s people their transgressions and the house of Jacob their sins. These dumb dogs that would not bark are the ones who feel the just vengeance of an offended God. Men, maidens, and little children all perish together.

> “Bu yerda biz jamoat — Rabbimizning muqaddas maskani — Xudoning g‘azabi zarbasini birinchi bo‘lib his etganini ko‘ramiz. Yoshi ulug‘ kishilar, ya’ni Xudo ularga buyuk nur bergan va xalqning ma’naviy manfaatlari qo‘riqchilari sifatida turganlar, o‘zlariga ishonib topshirilgan omonatga xiyonat qildilar. Ular shunday mavqeni egalladilarki, go‘yo avvalgi kunlardagidek mo‘jizalarni va Xudoning qudratining yaqqol namoyon bo‘lishini kutishimiz shart emas emish. Zamonlar o‘zgargan. Bu so‘zlar ularning imonsizligini mustahkamlaydi, va ular shunday deydilar: Rabbiy na yaxshilik qiladi, na yomonlik qiladi. U O‘z xalqini hukm bilan yo‘qlash uchun haddan tashqari rahmdildir. Shunday qilib, “Tinchlik va xavfsizlik” — Xudoning xalqiga ularning gunohlarini va Yoqub xonadoniga ularning ma’siyatlarini ko‘rsatish uchun endi hech qachon ovozini karnaydek ko‘tarmaydigan kishilarning nidosidir. Hurmaydigan bu soqov itlar haqoratlangan Xudoning odil qasosini his etadiganlarning o‘zidir. Erkaklar, qizlar va yosh bolalar — barchasi birgalikda halok bo‘ladilar.”

> “The abominations for which the faithful ones were sighing and crying were all that could be discerned by finite eyes, but by far the worst sins, those which provoked the jealousy of the pure and holy God, were unrevealed. The great Searcher of hearts knoweth every sin committed in secret by the workers of iniquity. These persons come to feel secure in their deceptions and, because of His long-suffering, say that the Lord seeth not, and then act as though He had forsaken the earth. But He will detect their hypocrisy and will open before others those sins which they were so careful to hide.

> “Sodiqlar oh-voh qilib, faryod chekayotgan jirkanchliklar — faqat chekli insoniy ko‘zlar anglay oladigan narsalargina edi; ammo eng og‘ir gunohlar, pok va muqaddas Xudoning rashkini qo‘zg‘atgan gunohlar esa oshkor etilmagan edi. Yuraklarning buyuk Tekshiruvchisi nohaqlik qiluvchilar tomonidan maxfiy ravishda sodir etilgan har bir gunohni biladi. Bu kishilar o‘z aldovlarida o‘zlarini xotirjam his eta boshlaydilar va U zotning sabr-toqati bois: “Egamiz ko‘rmaydi”, deydilar; so‘ng esa go‘yo U yerni tark etgandek ish tutadilar. Lekin U ularning riyokorligini fosh etadi va ular shu qadar ehtiyot bilan yashirgan gunohlarni boshqalar oldida ochib qo‘yadi.”

> “No superiority of rank, dignity, or worldly wisdom, no position in sacred office, will preserve men from sacrificing principle when left to their own deceitful hearts. Those who have been regarded as worthy and righteous prove to be ring-leaders in apostasy and examples in indifference and in the abuse of God’s mercies. Their wicked course He will tolerate no longer, and in His wrath He deals with them without mercy.

> “Martaba, qadr-qimmat yoki dunyoviy donolikdagi hech qanday ustunlik, muqaddas lavozimdagi hech qanday mavqe, odamlar o‘zlarining aldamchi qalblariga tashlab qo‘yilganlarida, ularni prinsipni qurbon qilishdan saqlab qola olmaydi. Munosib va solih deb hisoblanganlar murtadlikda bosh-qosh bo‘luvchilar hamda beparvolik va Xudoning marhamatlarini suiiste’mol qilishda namuna ekanliklari ayon bo‘ladi. U ularning yovuz yo‘lini endi ortiq chidab turmaydi, va O‘z g‘azabida U ularga rahm-shafqatsiz muomala qiladi.”

> “It is with reluctance that the Lord withdraws His presence from those who have been blessed with great light and who have felt the power of the word in ministering to others. They were once His faithful servants, favored with His presence and guidance; but they departed from Him and led others into error, and therefore are brought under the divine displeasure.” Testimonies, volume 5, 211, 212.

> “Rabbiy buyuk nur bilan barakalangan va boshqalarga xizmat qilishda Kalomning qudratini his etgan kishilardan O‘z huzurini istamaygina tortib oladi. Ular bir vaqtlar Uning sodiq xizmatkorlari bo‘lib, Uning huzuri va yo‘l-yo‘riqlaridan bahramand edilar; ammo ular Undan yuz o‘girdilar va boshqalarni adashishga boshladilar, shu bois ilohiy norozilik ostiga tushiriladilar.” Testimonies, 5-jild, 211, 212.
