The rebellion of Aaron’s golden calf at the beginning of ancient Israel, prophetically aligns with the rebellion of Jeroboam at the beginning of the ten tribes of the northern kingdom of Ephraim. These sacred histories typify the rebellion of Adventism in 1863.

Qadimgi Isroilning boshida Horunning oltin buzoq bilan bog‘liq isyoni, bashoratli ma’noda, Efrayimning shimoliy shohligidagi o‘n qabilaning boshida Yeribomning isyoni bilan muvofiqlashadi. Bu muqaddas tarixlar 1863-yildagi Adventizm isyonining timsolidir.

There are of course other witnesses to 1863, but Aaron and king Jeroboam provide witnesses that lay over the top of the history of 1863, and all those histories illustrate the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, which is the Protestant horn, not only during the final days of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, but all the way to the close of probation. Those histories also address the parallel history of the Republican horn in the sixth kingdom.

Albatta, 1863-yilga oid boshqa guvohliklar ham bor, biroq Horun va shoh Yerovoam 1863-yil tarixining ustiga yotqizilgan guvohliklarni taqdim etadilar, va bu tarixlarning barchasi yuz qirq to‘rt mingning harakatini — ya’ni protestant shoxni — Muqaddas Kitob bashoratidagi oltinchi shohlikning so‘nggi kunlaridagina emas, balki sinov muddatining yopilishigacha bo‘lgan butun davr davomida namoyon etadi. Bu tarixlar, shuningdek, oltinchi shohlikdagi Respublikachi shoxning parallel tarixiga ham murojaat qiladi.

It is generally a very difficult truth for those that believe, that the Seventh-day Adventist church is God’s remnant people at the end of the world. That belief is our first mistake. There is no biblical evidence that the Laodicean church represents the people that are lifted up as an ensign during the Sunday law crisis. Our first mistake is accepting the false premise that this is so. The ensign at the end of the world is made up of those who were cast out by the members of the synagogue of Satan.

Umuman olganda, Yettinchi kun Adventistlar jamoati dunyoning oxirida Xudoning qoldiq xalqi ekanligi haqidagi tushuncha imonlilar uchun nihoyatda qiyin haqiqatdir. Ana shu e’tiqod bizning birinchi xatomizdir. Laodikeya jamoati yakshanba qonuni inqirozi davrida bayroq sifatida ko‘tariladigan xalqni ifodalaydi, degan fikrni tasdiqlovchi hech qanday Muqaddas Kitobiy dalil yo‘q. Bizning birinchi xatomiz — aynan shu holatni to‘g‘ri deb biluvchi yolg‘on asosni qabul qilishimizdir. Dunyoning oxiridagi bayroq shayton sinagogasi a’zolari tomonidan quvilganlardan tarkib topadi.

> And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. Isaiah 11:12.

> U xalqlar uchun bir bayroqni ko‘taradi, Isroilning quvg‘in qilinganlarini yig‘adi va Yahudoning tarqalib ketganlarini yerning to‘rt burchagidan jamlaydi. Ishayo 11:12.

It is Laodicean Adventists that cast out those that are to be the ensign.

Nishon bo‘lishi kerak bo‘lganlarni quvib chiqaradiganlar—Laodikeyadagi Adventistlardir.

> Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed. Isaiah 66:5.

> Egamizning kalomidan titraydigan sizlar, Egamizning kalomini eshitinglar; Mening nomim tufayli sizlardan nafratlangan, sizlarni quvib chiqargan birodarlaringiz: “Egamiz ulug‘lansin”, dedilar; ammo U sizlarning shodligingiz uchun zohir bo‘ladi, ular esa sharmanda bo‘ladilar. Ishayo 66:5.

Those that are the ensign get cast out for the “name” of Christ. The name that produces the hatred is Alpha and Omega, for the principle of Alpha and Omega is what clearly identifies who the Seventh-day Adventist church represents in Bible prophecy. The parable of the ten virgins represents Adventism.

“Masihning nomi” tufayli bayroq bo‘lganlar quvib chiqariladilar. Nafratni keltirib chiqaradigan nom — Alfa va Omegadir, chunki Alfa va Omega tamoyili Yettinchi kun adventistlari jamoati Muqaddas Kitob bashoratida kimni ifodalashini aniq belgilab beradi. O‘nta bokira haqidagi masal Adventizmni ifodalaydi.

> “The parable of the ten virgins of Matthew 25 also illustrates the experience of the Adventist people.” The Great Controversy, 393.

> “Matto 25-bobdagi o‘nta bokira haqidagi masal ham Adventist xalqining tajribasini tasvirlaydi.” Buyuk kurash, 393.

The parable was fulfilled at the beginning of Adventism and it is fulfilled again to the very letter at the end.

Masal Adventizmning boshida bajo keltirildi va u oxirda yana aynan harfma-harf bajo keltiriladi.

> “I am often referred to the parable of the ten virgins, five of whom were wise, and five foolish. This parable has been and will be fulfilled to the very letter, for it has a special application to this time, and, like the third angel’s message, has been fulfilled and will continue to be present truth till the close of time.” Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.

> “Menga ko‘pincha o‘nta bokira haqidagi masalga murojaat qilinadi; ulardan beshtasi dono, beshtasi esa nodon edi. Bu masal har bir tafsilotigacha bajarilgan va yana bajariladi, chunki u aynan shu zamon uchun alohida tatbiqqa ega bo‘lib, uchinchi farishtaning xabari singari, bajarilgan va zamonning oxirigacha hozirgi haqiqat bo‘lib qolaveradi.” Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.

The foolish virgins that wake up and recognize they have no oil are the Laodiceans.

Uyg‘onib, o‘zlarida moy yo‘qligini anglaydigan nodon bokiralar — Laodikiyaliklardir.

> “The state of the Church represented by the foolish virgins, is also spoken of as the Laodicean state.” Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.

> «Ahmoq bokira qizlar tomonidan ifodalangan Jamoatning holati, shuningdek, Laodikiya holati deb ham aytiladi». Review and Herald, August 19, 1890.

The struggle of the wise virgins, represented also as the Philadelphian church, is with a church that claims to be Jews, but they are not.

Dono qizlarning kurashi — shuningdek Filadelfiya jamoati sifatida ham ifodalangan — o‘zlarini yahudiy deb da’vo qiladigan, ammo aslida unday bo‘lmagan bir jamoat bilandir.

> Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Revelation 3:9.

> Mana, Men shayton ibodatxonasidagilardan — o‘zlarini yahudiy deb aytib, aslida unday bo‘lmagan, balki yolg‘on gapirayotganlardan — shunday qilurman: ular kelib, oyoqlaring oldida sajda qilurlar va Men seni sevganimni bilurlar. Vahiy 3:9.

Sister White addresses this verse in the very first publication after the great disappointment.

Opa Uayt buyuk umidsizlikdan keyingi ilk nashrdayoq ushbu oyatga murojaat qiladi.

> “You think, that those who worship before the saint’s feet, (Revelation 3:9), will at last be saved. Here I must differ with you; for God shew me that this class were professed Adventists, who had fallen away, and ‘crucified to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.’ And in the ‘hour of temptation,’ which is yet to come, to show out every one’s true character, they will know that they are forever lost; and overwhelmed with anguish of spirit, they will bow at the saint’s feet.” Word to the Little Flock, 12.

> “Siz avliyoning oyoqlari oldida sajda qiladiganlar (Vahiy 3:9) oxir-oqibat najot topadi, deb o‘ylaysiz. Bu yerda men siz bilan kelisha olmayman; chunki Xudo menga ko‘rsatdiki, bu toifa imonini e’tirof qilgan Adventistlar bo‘lib, ular imondan qaytib ketgan va ‘Xudoning O‘g‘lini o‘zlari uchun yana qayta xochga mixlaganlar va Uni oshkora sharmanda qilganlar.’ Va hali kelajakda bo‘lgan ‘vasvasa soati’da har bir kishining haqiqiy fe’l-atvorini namoyon qilish uchun, ular o‘zlarining abadulabad yo‘qolganlarini bilib oladilar; va ruhiy iztirob ostida ezilib, avliyoning oyoqlari oldida bosh egadilar.” Kichik Podaga So‘z, 12.

In Isaiah chapter five the song of the vineyard, which Christ later employed is mentioned for the first time.

Ishayo kitobining beshinchi bobida keyinchalik Masih foydalangan uzumzor qo‘shig‘i ilk bor tilga olinadi.

> Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill: And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes. And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard. What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes? Isaiah 5:1–4.

> Endi men o‘z suyuklim haqida, uning uzumzori to‘g‘risida, suyuklimga atalgan bir qo‘shiq aytaman. Mening suyuklimning serhosil tepalikda bir uzumzori bor edi: u uni o‘rab qo‘ydi, undagi toshlarni terib tashladi, unga eng sara tokni ekdi, o‘rtasida bir minora qurdi, unda sharob siqiladigan joy ham yasadi; so‘ng u uzum hosil berishini kutdi, ammo u yovvoyi uzum berdi. Endi esa, ey Quddus aholisi va Yahudo odamlari, iltimos, men bilan uzumzorim o‘rtasida hukm qilinglar. Uzumzorim uchun men qilmagan yana nima qilish mumkin edi? Nega men uning uzum hosil berishini kutganimda, u yovvoyi uzum berdi? Ishayo 5:1–4.

The parable whether in the Old Testament or the New identifies God’s church as being rejected by God for refusing to bring forth the fruits they were raised up to produce. In Isaiah five, at the conclusion of the parable, the punishment of the vineyard is identified, while also promising to lift up an ensign to the nations. Clearly the vineyard is not the ensign.

Masal, Eski Ahdda bo‘ladimi yoki Yangi Ahdda bo‘ladimi, Xudoning jamoatini ular yetishtirish uchun barpo etilgan hosilni keltirishdan bosh tortgani uchun Xudo tomonidan rad etilgan sifatida ko‘rsatadi. Ishayo beshinchi bobda, masalning xulosasida, uzumzorning jazosi bayon qilinadi, shu bilan birga xalqlar uchun bir bayroq ko‘tarilishi ham va’da qilinadi. Aniqki, uzumzor bayroq emas.

> Therefore is the anger of the Lord kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them: and the hills did tremble, and their carcases were torn in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still. And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss unto them from the end of the earth: and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly. Isaiah 5:25, 26.

> Shuning uchun Egamizning g‘azabi O‘z xalqiga qarshi alangalandi; U ularga qarshi qo‘lini cho‘zib, ularni urdi; tepaliklar titradi, ularning jasadlari ko‘chalar o‘rtasida yirtilib yotdi. Shunga qaramay, Uning g‘azabi qaytmadi, balki Uning qo‘li hamon cho‘zilgan. Va U olisdagi xalqlarga bir bayroq ko‘taradi, yerning chekkasidan ularga hushtak chaladi; va mana, ular tezlik bilan, shiddat ila keladilar. Ishayo 5:25, 26.

When Jesus later sang the song as a parable His conclusion was just as decisive.

Iso keyinroq bu qo‘shiqni masal tariqasida kuylaganida, Uning xulosasi ham xuddi shunday qat’iy edi.

> Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country: And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it. And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another. Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise. But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them. Matthew 21:33–45.

> Yana bir masalni tinglanglar: bir uy egasi bor edi; u uzumzor barpo qildi, uning atrofiga to‘siq tortdi, ichiga sharob siqish chuqurini qazdi, minora qurdi, so‘ng uni bog‘bonlarga ijaraga berib, uzoq yurtga ketdi. Hosil vaqti yaqinlashganda esa, hosilini olish uchun o‘z xizmatkorlarini bog‘bonlar oldiga yubordi. Lekin bog‘bonlar uning xizmatkorlarini tutib, birini urdilar, boshqasini o‘ldirdilar, yana boshqasini toshbo‘ron qildilar. U yana birinchi safardagidan ham ko‘proq boshqa xizmatkorlarni yubordi; ular esa ularga ham xuddi shunday qildilar. Nihoyat, hammadan keyin ularga o‘z o‘g‘lini yuborib: “O‘g‘limni hurmat qiladilar”, dedi. Ammo bog‘bonlar o‘g‘lini ko‘rib, o‘zaro dedilar: “Bu merosxo‘r; kelinglar, uni o‘ldiraylik-da, uning merosini egallab olaylik”. Shunday qilib, uni tutib, uzumzordan tashqariga chiqarib yubordilar va o‘ldirdilar. Bas, uzumzorning egasi kelganida, o‘sha bog‘bonlarga nima qiladi? Ular Unga dedilar: “U o‘sha yovuzlarni ayovsiz halok qiladi va uzumzorni hosilini o‘z vaqtida beradigan boshqa bog‘bonlarga ijaraga beradi”. Iso ularga dedi: “Sizlar Muqaddas Yozuvlarda hech qachon o‘qimaganmisizlar: ‘Binokorlar rad etgan tosh burchakning bosh toshi bo‘ldi; bu Rabbimizning ishidir va ko‘zlarimizga ajablanarlidir’? Shuning uchun sizlarga aytaman: Xudoning Shohligi sizlardan olinib, uning hosilini keltiradigan bir xalqqa beriladi. Kim bu tosh ustiga yiqilsa, parcha-parcha bo‘ladi; tosh kimning ustiga tushsa, uni kukun qilib yuboradi”. Bosh ruhoniylar va farziylar Uning masallarini eshitganlarida, U ular haqida so‘zlayotganini angladilar. Matto 21:33–45.

The Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist church is not the ensign that is lifted up. The vineyard in the last days that has been typified by ancient Israel is the Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist church, but there will be a nation that brings forth the fruit which qualifies as the first fruits, which is what the one hundred and forty-four thousand are.

Laodiceya holatidagi Yettinchi kun adventistlari jamoati ko‘tarilgan bayroq emas. Qadimgi Isroil orqali timsollangan oxirgi kunlardagi uzumzor Laodiceya holatidagi Yettinchi kun adventistlari jamoatidir, biroq bir xalq bo‘ladiki, u birinchi mevalar sifatida tan olinadigan hosilni keltiradi; bir yuz qirq to‘rt ming aynan shulardir.

> These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. Revelation 14:4.

> Bular ayollar bilan bulg‘anmaganlardir; chunki ular bokiralardir. Bular Qo‘zi qayerga bormasin, Uning ortidan ergashadiganlardir. Bular odamlar orasidan qutqarib olinib, Xudo va Qo‘zi uchun ilk hosil bo‘lganlardir. Vahiy 14:4.

As an ensign they will be employed by the Householder to bring in the final harvest. The Laodicean Seventh-day Adventist church is the vineyard who rejected the foundation stone of Moses’ seven times. From that point on it was a progressive descent into greater and greater darkness. The ensign shall be “a root of Jesse.” The root of Jesse, or David represents the very last truth Jesus presented to the quibbling Jews of His history. It is a symbol of the principle of Alpha and Omega, which the unfaithful husbandmen of both ancient and modern Israel refuse to understand.

Yakuniy hosilni yig‘ib olish uchun ular Uy Egasi tomonidan bayroq sifatida ishlatiladilar. Laodikiya davridagi Yettinchi kun Adventistlar jamoati Musoning “yetti zamon”iga oid poydevor toshini rad etgan uzumzordir. O‘sha nuqtadan boshlab, bu tobora chuqurroq va chuqurroq zulmat sari izchil qulash bo‘ldi. Bayroq “Yessayning ildizi” bo‘ladi. Yessayning ildizi, ya’ni Dovud, Iso O‘z tarixidagi bahs-talashchi yahudiylarga taqdim etgan eng so‘nggi haqiqatni ifodalaydi. Bu Alpha va Omega tamoyilining ramzidir; qadimgi hamda zamonaviy Isroilning sadoqatsiz bog‘bonlari esa buni tushunishni rad etadilar.

> And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. Isaiah 11:10.

> Va o‘sha kunda Yessayning bir ildizi bo‘lur, u xalqlar uchun bayroq bo‘lib turur; unga butparast xalqlar murojaat qilurlar; va uning oromgohi ulug‘vor bo‘lur. Ishayo 11:10.

Sister White and James White clearly identify that by 1856 the movement had become Laodicea, so when does she identify that it ever accepted the message to the Laodiceans? She never did. Our first mistake is accepting the claim that the Seventh-day Adventist church has been a victorious church as she went through history. It is quite the opposite. If we accept that first mistaken premise, our eyes are closed to prophetic facts that teach otherwise. For instance, Sister White repeatedly identifies that the history of ancient literal Israel illustrates the experience and history of modern spiritual Israel. Often when she references ancient Israel as the example for modern Israel, she simultaneously quotes the apostle Paul’s classic statement of the same fact.

Opa Uayt va Jeyms Uayt 1856-yilga kelib harakat Laodikiyaga aylanganini aniq ko‘rsatadilar; demak, u qachon bu harakat laodikiyaliklarga berilgan xabarni qabul qilganini aytadi? Hech qachon aytmagan. Bizning birinchi xatomiz — Yettinchi kun Adventistlari jamoati tarix davomida g‘olib jamoat bo‘lib kelgan, degan da’voni qabul qilishimizdir. Holbuki, buning mutlaqo aksi to‘g‘ridir. Agar biz o‘sha birinchi xato asosni qabul qilsak, unday bo‘lsa, buning aksini o‘rgatuvchi bashoratli haqiqatlarga ko‘zlarimiz yumiladi. Masalan, Opa Uayt qadimgi so‘zma-so‘z Isroilning tarixi zamonaviy ruhiy Isroilning tajribasi va tarixini tasvirlashini qayta-qayta ko‘rsatadi. U qadimgi Isroilni zamonaviy Isroil uchun namuna sifatida tilga olganida, ko‘pincha ayni paytda havoriy Pavlusning shu haqiqat haqidagi klassik bayonotini ham keltiradi.

> 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.

> Endi bu narsalarning hammasi ularga ibrat bo‘lishi uchun yuz berdi; va ular bizning tanbehimiz uchun yozilgandir, biz esa zamonlarning oxiri yetib kelgan kishilarmiz. 1 Korinfliklarga 10:11.

The apostle Paul in verse eleven is summarizing the previous ten verses.

Havoriy Pavlus o‘n birinchi oyatda avvalgi o‘n oyatni xulosa qilmoqda.

> Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea; And did all eat the same spiritual meat; And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. 1 Corinthians 10:1–10.

> Bundan tashqari, ey birodarlar, shuni bilmay qolishingizni istamayman: ota-bobolarimizning hammasi bulut ostida edilar va hammasi dengizdan o‘tdilar; hammasi bulutda ham, dengizda ham Musoga cho‘mdirildilar; hammasi bir xil ruhiy taomdan yedilar; hammasi bir xil ruhiy ichimlikdan ichdilar; chunki ular o‘zlariga ergashib yurgan ruhiy Qoyadan ichar edilar, o‘sha Qoya esa Masih edi. Ammo ulardan ko‘plaridan Xudo mamnun bo‘lmadi, chunki ular sahroda halok bo‘ldilar. Endi bu narsalar biz uchun ibrat bo‘ldi, toki ular yovuz narsalarni havas qilganlaridek, biz ham yovuz narsalarni havas qilmaylik. Ularning ba’zilari kabi butparast bo‘lmanglar; yozilganidek: “Xalq o‘tirib, yeb-ichdi va o‘ynagani turdi”. Shuningdek, ularning ba’zilari zino qilganidek, biz ham zino qilmaylik; va bir kunda ulardan yigirma uch ming kishi halok bo‘ldi. Shuningdek, ularning ba’zilari sinaganidek, biz ham Masihni sinamaylik; va ular ilonlar tomonidan halok qilindilar. Shuningdek, ularning ba’zilari noliganidek, sizlar ham nolimanglar; va ular halok qiluvchi tomonidan yo‘q qilindilar. 1 Korinfliklarga 10:1–10.

Paul and Sister White do not use ancient Israel as an example of a victorious and righteous people. Quite the opposite. Paul summarizes those first ten verses, in verse eleven, and then in the next verse states the lesson that the history of ancient Israel is to convey to those who will see.

Pavlus ham, Opa Uayt ham qadimgi Isroilni g‘olib va solih xalqning namunasi sifatida keltirmaydi. Aksincha. Pavlus dastlabki o‘n oyatni o‘n birinchi oyatda xulosa qiladi, so‘ng keyingi oyatda qadimgi Isroil tarixi ko‘ra oladiganlarga yetkazishi lozim bo‘lgan saboqni bayon etadi.

> Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. 1 Corinthians 10:12.

> Shunday ekan, o‘zini mahkam turibman, deb o‘ylagan kishi yiqilib tushmasligi uchun ehtiyot bo‘lsin. 1 Korinfliklarga 10:12.

Ancient Israel provides an example of a people that were called of God, led of God, fulfilled the prophecies of God and rebelled against God every step of the way, and ultimately crucified the Creator of heaven and earth! Adventists have no problem admitting these facts about ancient Israel, but rarely do they allow the intended warning to break through their Laodicean blindness. They may quote the passages where Sister White identifies the church as the apple of God’s eye, and it is, but God’s love for His people does not throw a cloak over their actual condition. Those who He loves He rebukes and chastens. As much as God’s church is the apple of God’s eye, Jesus very plainly summarized His relationship with that apple, His apple.

Qadimgi Isroil Xudo tomonidan chaqirilgan, Xudo tomonidan boshqarilgan, Xudoning bashoratlarini bajo keltirgan, shu bilan birga har qadamda Xudoga qarshi isyon qilgan va oxir-oqibat osmonu yerning Yaratguvchisini xochga mixlagan xalqning namunasini beradi! Adventistlar qadimgi Isroil haqidagi bu haqiqatlarni tan olishda hech qanday qiyinchilik ko‘rmaydilar, biroq kamdan-kam hollarda ular mo‘ljallangan ogohlantirishning o‘zlarining Laodikiya ko‘rligini yorib o‘tishiga yo‘l qo‘yadilar. Ular Opa Uayt jamoatni Xudoning ko‘z qorachig‘i deb ta’riflagan parchalarni keltirishlari mumkin, va shunday hamdir, biroq Xudoning O‘z xalqiga bo‘lgan sevgisi ularning haqiqiy ahvoli ustiga parda tashlamaydi. U sevganlarni fosh qiladi va tarbiyalaydi. Xudoning jamoati qanchalik Xudoning ko‘z qorachig‘i bo‘lmasin, Iso O‘zining o‘sha qorachiq bilan, O‘z qorachig‘i bilan munosabatini juda ravshan tarzda xulosa qilib bergan.

> O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Luke 13:34, 35.

> Ey Quddus, Quddus, payg‘ambarlarni o‘ldiradigan va senga yuborilganlarni toshbo‘ron qiladigan shahar! Tovuq o‘z jo‘jalarini qanotlari ostiga qanday yig‘sa, Men ham necha bor sening farzandlaringni bir joyga to‘plamoqchi bo‘ldim, ammo siz istamadingiz! Mana, uyingiz sizga vayrona holda qoldiriladi; va sizlarga chinini aytaman: “Egamiz nomi bilan kelayotgan muborakdir”, deydigan vaqt kelmaguncha, Meni ko‘rmaysiz. Luqo 13:34, 35.

The questions should be asked, “Does Jesus truly illustrate the end with the beginning? Does ancient Israel actually illustrate modern Israel?” The problem with ancient Israel throughout their history was that they believed that their heritage proved they were God’s people, and therefore that they could not be anything, but God’s people. That is why in Jeremiah’s day they professed to be the temple of the Lord.

Savollar shunday qo‘yilishi lozim: “Iso haqiqatan ham oxirni boshlanish bilan tasvirlaydimi? Qadimgi Isroil rostdan ham zamonaviy Isroilni tasvirlaydimi?” Qadimgi Isroilning butun tarixi davomida muammosi shunda ediki, ular o‘z nasl-nasablarini Xudoning xalqi ekanliklarining isboti deb bildilar va shu sababli o‘zlarini Xudoning xalqidan boshqa narsa bo‘lishlari mumkin emas, deb hisobladilar. Shuning uchun ham Yeremiyo davrida ular o‘zlarini Egamizning ma’badi deb e’tirof etgan edilar.

> The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, Stand in the gate of the Lord’s house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the Lord, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the Lord. Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the Lord, The temple of the Lord, The temple of the Lord, are these. Jeremiah 7:1–4.

> Egamiz tomonidan Yeremiyoga kelgan kalom shunday edi: Egamiz uyining darvozasi oldida turib, u yerda ushbu kalomni e’lon qil va ayt: Ey Yahudo ahli, Egamizga sajda qilish uchun bu darvozalar orqali kirayotganlarning barchasi, Egamizning kalomini eshiting. Isroil Xudosi, Sarvari Olam bo‘lgan Egamiz shunday demoqda: Yo‘llaringizni va amallaringizni tuzatinglar, shunda Men sizlarni bu joyda istiqomat qildiraman. Yolg‘on so‘zlarga ishonmanglar, ya’ni: “Egamizning ma’badi, Egamizning ma’badi, Egamizning ma’badi mana shudir”, deb aytmanglar. Yeremiyo 7:1–4.

This very same delusion was also emphasized by John the Baptist.

Ayni shu adashuv Yahyo cho‘mdiruvchi tomonidan ham ta’kidlangan edi.

> And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. And now also the ax is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Matthew 3:6–10.

> Va ular gunohlarini e’tirof etgan holda, uning tomonidan Iordanda suvga cho‘mdirilardilar. Ammo u ko‘plab farziylar va sadduqiylarning suvga cho‘mdirilishiga kelayotganini ko‘rib, ularga dedi: “Ey ilonlar zoti, kelajak g‘azabdan qochishga sizni kim ogohlantirdi? Shunday ekan, tavbaga munosib mevalar keltiringlar. Va ichingizda: «Bizning otamiz Ibrohimdir», deb aytishni o‘ylamanglar. Chunki sizlarga aytamanki, Xudo mana shu toshlardan ham Ibrohimga farzandlar tiklashga qodirdir. Endi esa bolta ham daraxtlarning ildiziga qo‘yilgan; shuning uchun yaxshi meva keltirmaydigan har bir daraxt kesilib, olovga tashlanadi.” Matto 3:6–10.

The very same misguided understanding within Adventism that is symbolized by the expression “The temple of the Lord, are we,” and that we are Abraham’s spiritual “seed” is the primary manifestation of the blindness of Laodicea.

Adventizm ichidagi, “Egamizning ma’badi — bizmiz”, degan ibora hamda biz Ibrohimning ruhiy “zurriyoti” ekanimiz haqidagi ayni o‘sha noto‘g‘ri tushuncha Laodiceyaning ko‘rligining asosiy namoyonidir.

> “God sends messengers to tell His people what they must be and do in order to obey His laws of righteousness, which if a man do, he shall also live in them. They are to love God supremely, having no other gods before Him; and they are to love their neighbor as themselves, doing to him as they would wish him to do to them.

> “Xudo O‘z xalqiga O‘zining solihlik qonunlariga itoat etish uchun ular qanday bo‘lishlari va nimalarni qilishlari kerakligini aytish uchun elchilar yuboradi; agar inson ularga amal qilsa, u ular orqali yashaydi ham. Ular Xudoni eng oliy darajada sevishlari, Uning oldida boshqa xudolarga ega bo‘lmasliklari kerak; va ular o‘z yaqinlarini o‘zlarini sevgandek sevib, o‘zlariga qanday muomala qilinishini istasalar, unga ham shunday muomala qilishlari kerak.

> “Not one tittle of God’s holy law is to be treated lightly or disrespectfully. Those who transgress a ‘Thus saith the Lord,’ stand under the banner of the prince of darkness, in rebellion against their Maker and their Redeemer. They claim the promises given to the obedient, saying, The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord are we, while they dishonor God by misrepresenting His character, by doing the very things He has told them not to do. They set up a standard which God has not given. Their example is misleading, their influence corrupting. They are not lights in the world, for they do not follow the principles of righteousness.

> “Xudoning muqaddas qonunidagi biror nuqta ham yengil yoki hurmatsiz tarzda qaralmasligi kerak. “Egamiz shunday deydi” degan amrni buzadiganlar zulmat shahzodasining bayrog‘i ostida turib, o‘z Yaratuvchisi va Najotkoriga qarshi isyondadirlar. Ular itoatkorlarga berilgan va’dalarni o‘zlariga da’vo qilib: Egamizning ma’badi, Egamizning ma’badi bizmiz, deydilar, holbuki ular Xudoning fe’l-atvorini noto‘g‘ri namoyon etish orqali, U ularga qilmaslikni buyurgan aynan o‘sha ishlarni qilish orqali Uni tahqirlaydilar. Ular Xudo bermagan bir mezonni o‘rnatadilar. Ularning namunasi chalg‘ituvchidir, ta’siri esa buzuvchidir. Ular dunyoda nur emaslar, chunki ular solihlik tamoyillariga amal qilmaydilar.”

> “Men cannot show greater treachery toward God than by disregarding the light He sends them. Those who do this mislead the ignorant, for they set up false waymarks. They are continually perverting pure principles. . . .

> “Insonga Xudoga nisbatan U yuborgan nurni mensimaslikdan ham ortiqroq xiyonat ko‘rsata olmaydi. Bunday qiluvchilar johillarni yo‘ldan ozdiradilar, chunki ular soxta yo‘l ko‘rsatkichlarini o‘rnatadilar. Ular pok tamoyillarni muttasil ravishda buzib ko‘rsatadilar....”

> “In the words of Holy Writ we are plainly told why desolation came upon the Jewish nation. They had great light, rich blessings, and wonderful prosperity. But they proved unfaithful to their trust. They did not care faithfully for the Lord’s vineyard, or render Him the fruits thereof. They acted as though there were no God, and therefore calamity overtook them.” Manuscript Releases, volume 14, 343–345.

> “Muqaddas Yozuv so‘zlarida yahudiy xalqining boshiga nega vayronagarchilik kelgani bizga ravshan aytilgan. Ularga buyuk nur, mo‘l-ko‘l barakalar va ajoyib ravnaq ato etilgan edi. Ammo ular o‘zlariga ishonib topshirilgan narsaga sodiq qolmadilar. Ular Rabbiyning uzumzoriga sadoqat bilan g‘amxo‘rlik qilmadilar va Uning hosilidan Unga taqdim etmadiilar. Ular go‘yo Xudo yo‘qdek ish tutdilar, shu bois falokat ularning boshiga keldi.” Manuscript Releases, 14-jild, 343–345.

Israel believed that because they had been chosen by God in the beginning of their history, they would always be His chosen people. Worse yet, they also believed that because they were His chosen people He would honor them, in spite of the fact that they refused to honor Him. Prophetically, they were His chosen people, until they were divorced, but they were never the people God had desired them to be. The righteousness of the chosen people is not determined on who they might think they are. Ancient Israel is the primary example of the Seventh-day Adventist church, but when the false premise is accepted that they represent the one hundred and forty-four thousand at the end of the world, the blindness of Laodicea is manifested, as was ancient Israel’s. Adventism believes and teaches that they are the remnant people of God at the end of the world, in spite of the clear evidence to the contrary.

Isroil o‘z tarixining boshida Xudo tomonidan tanlangan bo‘lgani uchun, ular har doim Uning tanlangan xalqi bo‘lib qoladi, deb ishongan edi. Bundan ham yomoni, ular Uning tanlangan xalqi bo‘lganlari sababli, Unga izzat-hurmat ko‘rsatishdan bosh tortgan bo‘lsalar-da, U ularni ulug‘laydi, deb ham ishongan edilar. Payg‘ambarlik nuqtai nazaridan, ular to ajralish sodir bo‘lguniga qadar Uning tanlangan xalqi edilar, biroq ular hech qachon Xudo ularning bo‘lishini istagan xalq bo‘lmaganlar. Tanlangan xalqning solihligi ularning o‘zlarini kim deb o‘ylashlari bilan belgilanmaydi. Qadimgi Isroil Yettinchi kun Adventistlar jamoatining asosiy timsolidir, ammo ular dunyoning oxirida bir yuz qirq to‘rt mingni ifodalaydi, degan yolg‘on asos qabul qilinganda, Laodikiyaning ko‘rligi namoyon bo‘ladi, xuddi qadimgi Isroilniki kabi. Adventizm, buning aksini ko‘rsatuvchi aniq dalillarga qaramay, o‘zini dunyoning oxiridagi Xudoning qoldiq xalqi deb ishonadi va ta’lim beradi.

The nearer we get to the close of probation the more serious and straight the message to the Laodicean people must become. If that false premise is not set aside for the truth, then the examples of Aaron, Jeroboam and 1863 are hidden under the cloak of tradition and custom. It is too near to the close of probation, to hide under that cloak any longer.

Sinov muddati nihoyasiga qanchalik yaqinlashsak, Laodikiya xalqiga yo‘llanadigan xabar shunchalik jiddiy va to‘g‘ri bo‘lib borishi kerak. Agar o‘sha soxta asos haqiqat uchun chetga surib qo‘yilmasa, unda Horun, Yeribom va 1863 yil misollari an’ana hamda urf-odat libosi ostida yashirilgan bo‘ladi. Sinov muddati nihoyasiga shu qadar yaqinlashib qoldiki, endi o‘sha libos ostiga bundan buyon yashirinib bo‘lmaydi.

> And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. John 3:19, 20.

> Hukm shuki, nur dunyoga keldi, ammo insonlar o‘z amallari yovuz bo‘lgani uchun nurni emas, zulmatni sevdilar. Chunki yomonlik qiladigan har bir kishi nurdan nafratlanadi va amallari fosh bo‘lib qolmasin deb nur oldiga kelmaydi. Yuhanno 3:19, 20.

The history of the apostasies of Adventism has been tracked in God’s prophetic Word. It is a prophetic reality. The first proof of this is ancient Israel. Ancient Israel is a history of continued and escalating apostasy, and yet the Bible and Spirit of Prophecy teach that ancient Israel typifies modern Israel. Sad as this is, it has never been more important to understand this truth as at this present time. What is being unsealed with the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the fact that Adventism’s history as the Protestant horn runs parallel with the history of the Republican horn. Both horns provide a second witness for each other, and to refuse to correctly see one of the witnesses, simultaneously prevents the other witness from being recognized.

Adventizmning murtadliklari tarixi Xudoning bashoratli Kalomida kuzatib borilgan. Bu bashoratli bir haqiqatdir. Buning birinchi dalili qadimgi Isroildir. Qadimgi Isroil — davomli va tobora kuchayib boruvchi murtadlik tarixi, biroq Muqaddas Kitob va Bashorat Ruhi qadimgi Isroil zamonaviy Isroilning timsoli ekanini ta’lim beradi. Bu qanchalik qayg‘uli bo‘lmasin, ayni hozirgi vaqtda bu haqiqatni anglash hech qachon bunchalik muhim bo‘lmagan. Iso Masihning Vahiyi bilan ochib berilayotgan narsa shuki, Protestant shoxi sifatidagi Adventizmning tarixi Respublikachi shoxining tarixi bilan parallel ravishda boradi. Har ikki shox bir-biri uchun ikkinchi guvohlikni taqdim etadi, va guvohlardan birini to‘g‘ri ko‘rishdan bosh tortish, ayni paytda boshqa guvohning ham tanib olinishiga to‘sqinlik qiladi.

The lines of Aaron, Jeroboam and 1863 identify the beginning of modern spiritual Israel, and in so doing they also identify the beginning of the Republican horn. The third angel’s message is a warning against receiving the mark of the beast. It is the United States that first passes a Sunday law and then forces the entire world to do the same.

Horun, Yerovo‘om va 1863-yilning nasab chiziqlari zamonaviy ruhiy Isroilning boshlanishini ko‘rsatadi va shu orqali ular Respublikachi shoxning boshlanishini ham belgilaydi. Uchinchi farishtaning xabari maxluqning tamg‘asini qabul qilishdan ogohlantiruvchi xabardir. Avval yakshanba qonunini qabul qiladigan, so‘ngra esa butun dunyoni ham xuddi shunday qilishga majbur etadigan davlat — Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlaridir.

> “Foreign nations will follow the example of the United States. Though she leads out, yet the same crisis will come upon our people in all parts of the world.” Testimonies, volume 6, 395.

> “Chet elatlar Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlari misoliga ergashadilar. U yetakchilik qilsa-da, xuddi o‘sha inqiroz dunyoning barcha qismlaridagi xalqimiz boshiga ham keladi.” Testimonies, 6-jild, 395.

The prophetic truths connected with the Sunday law crisis cannot be separated from the work of the United States. The earth beast of Revelation thirteen is the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, that reigns for seventy prophetic years according to Isaiah twenty-three. It is the earth beast that has two horns. The truths associated with the relationship of those two horns are now being unsealed, but only to those who choose to understand that Jesus accomplishes the unsealing of the Revelation of Jesus Christ by employing the beginning of a thing to illustrate the end of a thing.

Yakshanba qonuni inqirozi bilan bog‘liq bashoratli haqiqatlarni Qo‘shma Shtatlarning faoliyatidan ajratib bo‘lmaydi. Vahiy kitobining o‘n uchinchi bobidagi yer hayvoni Muqaddas Kitob bashoratining oltinchi shohligidir; u Ishayo yigirma uchga ko‘ra yetmish bashoratli yil hukmronlik qiladi. Ikki shoxga ega bo‘lgan aynan o‘sha yer hayvonidir. O‘sha ikki shox o‘rtasidagi munosabat bilan bog‘liq haqiqatlar hozir muhrdan ochilmoqda, biroq faqat Iso Masih Vahiydagi O‘z vahiyini bir narsaning boshlanishidan boshqa bir narsaning oxirini tasvirlash uchun foydalangan holda ochib berishini tushunishni tanlaydiganlargagina.

The United States began as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy in 1798, and over the next sixty-five years, the two horns that would go through history together were placed into a setting that could be recognized, but only by those who are willing to see. The sixty-five years that are set forth in Isaiah chapter seven, began in 742 BC and ended in 677 BC. From 1798 until 1863 those years were repeated. Those sixty-five years identify a process of crisis in both horns.

Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlari 1798-yilda Muqaddas Kitob bashoratining oltinchi shohligi sifatida boshlandi, va keyingi oltmish besh yil davomida tarix bo‘ylab birga o‘tadigan ikki shox tanib olinishi mumkin bo‘lgan bir manzaraga joylashtirildi, biroq buni faqat ko‘rishga tayyor bo‘lganlargina anglay oladi. Ishayo kitobining yettinchi bobida bayon etilgan oltmish besh yil miloddan avvalgi 742-yilda boshlanib, miloddan avvalgi 677-yilda tugagan. 1798-yildan 1863-yilgacha o‘sha yillar takrorlandi. Bu oltmish besh yil har ikkala shoxdagi inqiroz jarayonini ko‘rsatib beradi.

By 1863, the beginning period of the prophetic “days of one king” of Isaiah twenty-three had concluded, and in so doing it established the prophetic waymarks of the ending period of “the days of one king.” The ending of Isaiah twenty-three’s symbolic seventy is illustrated by the first sixty-five years. 1863 until the time of the end in 1989, is the period of the Laodicean Adventist church, that began from the Millerite movement and ends at the movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. In order to understand the period at the end, we must understand the period at the beginning. Adventism cannot do this, for its beginning is marked by its rejection of the oath of Moses, which identifies the very sixty-five years which represents Adventism’s and the United States’ beginning and ending.

1863 yilga kelib, Ishayo yigirma uchdagi bashoratli “bir podshohning kunlari”ning boshlang‘ich davri yakuniga yetdi va shu orqali “bir podshohning kunlari”ning yakuniy davriga oid bashoratli belgi-nishonlarni o‘rnatdi. Ishayo yigirma uchdagi ramziy yetmishning nihoyasi dastlabki oltmish besh yil orqali tasvirlanadi. 1863 yildan 1989 yildagi oxirzamon vaqtigacha bo‘lgan davr Millerchilar harakatidan boshlangan va bir yuz qirq to‘rt minglik harakatida yakun topadigan Laodikiyadagi Adventist jamoatining davridir. Oxiridagi davrni tushunish uchun, boshidagi davrni tushunmog‘imiz kerak. Adventizm buni qila olmaydi, chunki uning boshlanishi Musoning qasamini rad etishi bilan belgilangandir; aynan shu qasam Adventizmning va Amerika Qo‘shma Shtatlarining boshlanishi hamda nihoyasini ifodalovchi o‘sha oltmish besh yilni aniqlab beradi.

For this reason, and this is a reason of high importance, this article has attempted to establish one prophetic fact that is now being unsealed by the Lion of the tribe of Judah. The fact is that if you are unwilling to recognize that the Seventh-day Adventist church has always been in the Laodicean condition, then you are logically unable to rightly divide the history of Adventism, and without rightly dividing the history of Adventism you are incapable of rightly identifying the horn of Republicanism.

Shu sababli — va bu nihoyatda muhim bir sababdir — ushbu maqola hozir Yahudo qabilasining Arsloni tomonidan muhrdan ochilayotgan bir bashoratli haqiqatni qaror toptirishga urindi. Bu haqiqat shundan iboratki, agar siz Yettinchi kun adventistlari jamoati har doim Laodikiya holatida bo‘lganini tan olishni istamasangiz, unda mantiqan Adventizm tarixini to‘g‘ri taqsimlay olmaysiz; Adventizm tarixini to‘g‘ri taqsimlamasdan esa Respublikanizm shoxini to‘g‘ri aniqlashga qodir emassiz.

> For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. 2 Peter 2:20–22.

> Chunki ular Rabbimiz va Najotkorimiz Iso Masihni tanish orqali dunyoning iflosliklaridan qochib qutulganlaridan keyin, yana ularga chirmashib qolib, mag‘lub bo‘lsalar, ular uchun oxirgi holat boshidagidan ham battarroqdir. Chunki ular uchun solihlik yo‘lini bilmaganlari, uni bilib olganlaridan keyin esa o‘zlariga topshirilgan muqaddas amrdan yuz o‘girishlaridan ko‘ra yaxshiroq bo‘lar edi. Ammo ularga haqiqiy maqolga muvofiq shunday bo‘ldi: It o‘z qusganiga yana qaytdi; va yuvilgan cho‘chqa esa loyda ag‘anashga qaytdi. 2 Butrus 2:20–22.
