When the United States enforces the soon-coming Sunday law it will cease to be the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy and transition into one third of the threefold union of Modern Rome. The president who enforces the Sunday law will be the last president, and he will be a Republican president. This is established upon two witnesses.

Xa i-United States inyanzelisa umthetho weCawa oza kufika kungekudala, iya kuyeka ukuba bubukumkani besithandathu besiprofeto seBhayibhile yaze yatshintsha yaba yinxalenye yesithathu yomanyano oluphindwe kathathu lweRoma yanamhlanje. Umongameli onyanzelisa umthetho weCawa uya kuba ngumongameli wokugqibela, yaye uya kuba ngumongameli weRiphabhlikhi. Oku kusekwa phezu kwamangqina amabini.

Abraham Lincoln, who was the first Republican president “spoke” the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which was the middle waymark of the speaking in the prophetic history of the earth beast. When Lincoln “spoke” the Emancipation Proclamation, in 1863, he was the first Republican president, thus typifying the last Republican president. Abraham Lincoln represents the last waymark of the first period of the earth beast and also the first waymark of the second period of the earth beast. Jesus always illustrates the end by the beginning. When the earth beast speaks as a dragon, at the end of the last of the two periods, the president will be a Republican president, as typified by Lincoln.

U-Abraham Lincoln, owayengumongameli wokuqala woMkhosi weRiphabhlikhi, “wathetha” iSibhengezo sokuKhululwa ngo-1863, esasiyinqophamlando esembindini wokuthetha kwimbali yesiprofeto yerhamncwa lomhlaba. Xa uLincoln “wathetha” iSibhengezo sokuKhululwa, ngo-1863, wayengumongameli wokuqala woMkhosi weRiphabhlikhi, ngaloo ndlela emela ngokomfuziselo umongameli wokugqibela woMkhosi weRiphabhlikhi. U-Abraham Lincoln umele inqophamlando yokugqibela yexesha lokuqala lerhamncwa lomhlaba, kwangaxeshanye ekwangoyinqophamlando yokuqala yexesha lesibini lerhamncwa lomhlaba. UYesu usoloko ebonakalisa isiphelo ngesiqalo. Xa irhamncwa lomhlaba lithetha njengenamba, ekupheleni kwelokugqibela kula maxesha mabini, umongameli uya kuba ngumongameli woMkhosi weRiphabhlikhi, njengoko kufuziselwe nguLincoln.

The second witness of the last president being a Republican president is the period that began at the time of the end in 1989 with Ronald Reagan. The prophetic period from 1989 to the soon coming Sunday law has been represented by the prophetic period of preparation for papal Rome taking the throne in the history of 508 to 538. That prophetic period of preparation for the empowerment of the antichrist in 538 was typified by the thirty years of Christ’s preparation, that is from His birth unto His baptism.

Ubungqina besibini bokuba umongameli wokugqibela ungumongameli weQela lamaRiphabhlikhi lixesha elaqala ngexesha lesiphelo ngo-1989 ngoRonald Reagan. Ixesha lesiprofeto ukusuka ku-1989 ukuya kumthetho weCawa oza kufika kungekudala limelwe lixesha lesiprofeto lokulungiselela iRoma yobupopu ukuba ithabathe itrone kwimbali ka-508 ukuya ku-538. Elo xesha lesiprofeto lokulungiselela ukuxhotyiswa komchasi-Kristu ngo-538 lafuziselwa yiminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela kukaKristu, oko kukuthi, ukusuka ekuzalweni kwaKhe kuse ekubhaptizweni kwaKhe.

The antichrist had a thirty-year preparation period that counterfeited Christ’s thirty years of preparation. A thirty-year period of preparation for Christ, and also for the antichrist, provides two witnesses to a period of preparation for the healing of the deadly wound at the soon coming Sunday law. That period of preparation began at the time of the end in 1989, just as Christ’s period of preparation arrived when He was born, which marked the time of the end in His prophetic history.

Umchasi-kristu wayenexesha lokulungiselelwa leminyaka engamashumi amathathu elalixelisa ngobuxoki iminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselelwa kukaKristu. Ixesha lokulungiselelwa leminyaka engamashumi amathathu likaKristu, kwanelo lomchasi-kristu, linika amangqina amabini exesha lokulungiselelwa lokuphiliswa kwenxeba elibulalayo emthethweni weCawa osondelayo. Elo xesha lokulungiselelwa laqala ngexesha lesiphelo ngowe-1989, kanye njengokuba ixesha lokulungiselelwa likaKristu lafika ekuzalweni kwakhe, okwaphawula ixesha lesiphelo kwimbali yakhe yesiprofeto.

Before the last president, verse two of Daniel eleven teaches that there will be six presidents that reach to the rich president that “stirs up” the realm of the globalists. The first of those six presidents was Ronald Reagan, a Republican. Ronald Reagan and Abraham Lincoln provide the two witnesses. The waymark of the rebellion of 1863, and the line of presidents beginning in 1989, pinpoint the characteristics of the final president of the United States.

Ngaphambi komongameli wokugqibela, ivesi lesibini likaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye lifundisa ukuba kuya kubakho oomongameli abathandathu abafikelela kumongameli osisityebi “ovusa” ulawulo lwabaxhasa ubuzwe behlabathi. Owokuqala kwabo mongameli bathandathu yayinguRonald Reagan, ongumRiphabhlikhi. URonald Reagan noAbraham Lincoln babonelela ngamangqina amabini. Uphawu lwendlela lovukelo luka-1863, nomgca woomongameli oqala ngo-1989, lubonisa ngokuchanileyo iimpawu zomongameli wokugqibela waseUnited States.

Ronald Reagan is a symbol of the first, and therefore illustrates the last. Reagan was a former media star, a former Democrat that had converted to be a Republican. He was known for his provocative use of the English language. He was known for his sense of humor. He was a professed Protestant, who demonstrated that he did not truly understand what Protestant meant when he formed an alliance with the antichrist of Bible prophecy.

URonald Reagan uluphawu lowokuqala, yaye ngenxa yoko ubonakalisa owokugqibela. UReagan wayesakuba yinkwenkwezi yeendaba, owayesakuba liDemokhrasi nowaguqukayo waba liRiphabhlikhi. Wayesaziwa ngokusebenzisa kwakhe ulwimi lwesiNgesi ngendlela evusa impikiswano. Wayesaziwa nangoburharha bakhe. Wayezibiza ngokuba ngumProtestanti, owabonakalisa ukuba wayengayiqondi ngokwenene intsingiselo yobProtestanti xa wenza umanyano nomchasi-Kristu wesiprofeto seBhayibhile.

He was pro-American, and politically unafraid. He was preceded by the most ineffective president in that era of modern politics, and his predecessor had bowed to the demands of radical Islam. Perhaps the most significant thing he stated, and which he is given credit for accomplishing, was when he said, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.”

Wayexhasa iMelika, yaye kwezopolitiko wayengenaloyiko. Walandelwa ngumongameli owayengenamsebenzi kwaphela ngelo xesha lezopolitiko zale mihla, yaye owayemandulele wayethobele iimfuno zobuSilamsi obugabadeleyo. Mhlawumbi eyona nto ibalulekileyo awayithethayo, naleyo adunyiswa ngokuyifezekisa, yaba xa wathi, “Mnu. Gorbachev, yidilizeni le ndonga.”

Donald Trump is a symbol of the last, and therefore has been illustrated by the first. Trump was a former media star, a former Democrat that had converted to a Republican. He is known for his provocative use of the English language. He is known for his sense of humor. He is a professed Protestant, who has demonstrated that he does not truly understand what Protestant means, and he will form an alliance with the antichrist of Bible prophecy at the soon coming Sunday law.

UDonald Trump ngumfuziselo wokugqibela, yaye ke ngoko uzotywe ngomzekelo wokuqala. UTrump wayeyinkwenkwezi yangaphambili yamajelo eendaba, engowayesakuba lilungu leDemocratic Party nowaguqukela kwiRepublican Party. Waziwa ngokusetyenziswa kwakhe kolwimi lwesiNgesi ngendlela evuselelayo. Waziwa nangengqiqo yakhe yokuhlekisa. Ungumntu ozibiza ngokuba ungumProtestanti, oye wabonakalisa ukuba akuqondi ngokwenene oko kuthethwa bubo ubuProtestanti, yaye uya kwenza umnqophiso nomchasi-kaKristu wesiprofeto seBhayibhile kumthetho weCawa osondeleyo ukuza.

He is pro-American, and politically unafraid. He was preceded by the most ineffective president in that era of modern politics, and when he is re-elected in 2024, he will once again have been preceded by the new most ineffective president in the era of modern politics. In both instances his predecessors are known for bowing to the demands of radical Islam. Most certainly the most significant thing he has ever stated, and which he will be given credit for accomplishing, is “Build the wall.”

UngowaseMerika, yaye kwezopolitiko akanaloyiko. Wandulelwa ngoyena mongameli ungasebenziyo ngokugqithisileyo kuloo mihla yezopolitiko zanamhlanje, yaye xa ephinda enyulwa ngowama-2024, uya kuphinda kwakhona abe undulelwe ngoyena mongameli mtsha ungasebenziyo ngokugqithisileyo kwixesha lezopolitiko zanamhlanje. Kuzo zombini ezi meko abanduleli bakhe baziwa ngokuthobela iimfuno zobuSilamsi obugqithiseleyo. Ngokuqinisekileyo eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu awakha wayithetha, naleyo aya kunikwa imbeko yokuyifezekisa, ithi, “Yakha udonga.”

This is not to claim that Jimmy Carter, Barack Hussein Obama and Joe Biden were not highly effective in their presidencies, it is just that their effectiveness, was based upon their work to destroy the principles enshrined in the Constitution of the United States, the very document they had each sworn to uphold and protect, coupled with the reality that Carter allowed Islam to hold hostages until the election of Reagan, and that Obama did an apology tour to the Islamic world and gave a minimum of one billion dollars cash to the primary bank of radical Islam, and Biden’s record of support of Islam is too long to list.

Oku asikokubango ukuba uJimmy Carter, uBarack Hussein Obama noJoe Biden abazange basebenze kakuhle kakhulu ebongameli babo; koko kukuba ukusebenza kwabo kakuhle kwakusekwe emsebenzini wabo wokutshabalalisa imigaqo esisiseko emiselwe kuMgaqo-siseko waseUnited States, olo xwebhu kanye kanye ababefunge ngabanye babo ukuluxhasa nokulukhusela, kudityaniswe nenyaniso yokuba uCarter wavumela amaSilamsi ukuba agcine abathinjwa de kwafika unyulo lukaReagan, kwanokuba uObama wenza uhambo lokucela uxolo kwilizwe lamaSilamsi waza wanika ubuncinane ibhiliyoni enye yeedola ngemali eyimali eyinkcash kwiBhanki ephambili yobuSilamsi obugqatswa ngokugqith’ emgceni, yaye imbali kaBiden yokuxhasa ubuSilamsi inde kakhulu ukuba idweliswe.

Ronald Reagan accomplished the work of tearing down the symbolic wall called “the iron curtain”, and on November 11, 1989 the Berlin wall came down to mark that spiritual conquering with a literal waymark. Trump will tear down the symbolic wall of separation of Church and State, and the third Woe will provide a literal waymark of that event. That event will conclude the period of the sealing of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, which began with the arrival of Islam of the third Woe, which provided a literal waymark to identify that the spiritual work of the sealing period had begun. October 7, 2023, provided the middle point of the three literal historical markers of the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand.

URonald Reagan wawufeza umsebenzi wokudiliza udonga olungokomfuziselo olubizwa ngokuba “likhethini lesinyithi”, yaye ngoNovemba 11, 1989, udonga lwaseBerlin lwawa ukuphawula olo loyiso lomoya ngophawu lwangokoqobo. UTrump uya kudiliza udonga olungokomfuziselo lokwahlulwa kweCawa noRhulumente, yaye uYeha lwesithathu luya kubonelela ngophawu lwangokoqobo lwaloo siganeko. Eso siganeko siya kuwugqiba umhla wexesha lokutywinwa kwekhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka, owaqala ngokufika kobuSilamsi boYeha lwesithathu, obabonelela ngophawu lwangokoqobo lokuchonga ukuba umsebenzi womoya wexesha lokutywinwa wawusele uqalile. U-Oktobha 7, 2023, wabonelela ngendawo ephakathi kweempawu zembali ezintathu ezingokoqobo zexesha lokutywinwa kwekhulu elinamashumi amane anesine amawaka.

In the midst of that history of the sealing, the sixth president since Ronald Reagan was symbolically politically assassinated by the beast from the bottomless pit. The beast from the bottomless pit at the outset of the sealing time was Islam, representing Mohammed, a symbol of a false prophet. The beast from the bottomless pit at the end of the sealing time is the sea beast of Catholicism, whose deadly wound is then healed. The beast from the bottomless pit that ascends in the middle of the sealing time, is the beast of atheism, the dragon. The dragon beast from the bottomless pit, in the middle of the sealing time slays the two witnesses in Revelation chapter eleven.

Phakathi kwelo bali lembali lokutywinwa, umongameli wesithandathu ukusukela kuRonald Reagan wabulawa ngokomfuziselo kwezopolitiko lirhamncwa elivela enzonzobileni. Irhamncwa elivela enzonzobileni ekuqaleni kwexesha lokutywinwa yayinguSilamsi, limela uMohammed, umqondiso womprofeti wobuxoki. Irhamncwa elivela enzonzobileni ekupheleni kwexesha lokutywinwa lirhamncwa lolwandle lobuKatolika, elithi ke ngoko liphole inxeba lalo elibulalayo. Irhamncwa elivela enzonzobileni elinyukayo phakathi kwexesha lokutywinwa, lirhamncwa lokungakholelwa kuThixo, inamba. Irhamncwa eliyinamba elivela enzonzobileni, phakathi kwexesha lokutywinwa, libulala amangqina amabini kwisiTyhilelo isahluko seshumi elinanye.

The pro-slavery Democratic dragon faction of the US Civil War literally slew the first Republican president. The Civil War officially ended on April 9, 1865, and Lincoln died a week later on the 15th, though he had been shot the day before. The war ended on the seventh-day Sabbath, and Lincoln died on the seventh-day Sabbath.

Iqela lenamba yeDemokhrasi elalixhasa ubukhoboka kwiMfazwe yamakhaya yase-United States labulala ngokwenene umongameli wokuqala weRiphabhlikhi. IMfazwe yamakhaya yaphela ngokusemthethweni ngoAprili 9, 1865, yaye uLincoln wasweleka kwiveki elandelayo ngomhla we-15, nangona wayedutyulwe ngosuku olwandulelayo. Imfazwe yaphela ngeSabatha yosuku lwesixhenxe, yaye uLincoln wasweleka ngeSabatha yosuku lwesixhenxe.

The globalists who had been awakened (stirred up) against the rich and powerful president, accomplished a political assassination on November 3, 2020. That beast from the bottomless pit represented the dragon beast who symbolically slew the last republican president as typified by the literal death of the first republican president. God’s Word identifies that after the world rejoiced over his death, he would stand upon his feet. We are now in 2024, and it is apparent that Trump has come back to life, in spite of all the lawfare, lies, propaganda and money that is being thrown against him.

Abo baqhubi bobukho behlabathi ababevusiwe (bexhokonxwa) ukuba bamelane nomongameli osisityebi nonamandla, baphumeza ukubulawa kwezopolitiko ngoNovemba 3, 2020. Eso silwanyana siphuma emhadini ongenasiphelo sasimela isilo esiyinamba esathi ngokomfuziselo sambulala umongameli wokugqibela weRiphabhlikhi, njengoko kwakufanekisiwe kukufa koqobo komongameli wokuqala weRiphabhlikhi. ILizwi likaThixo lichaza ukuba emva kokuba ihlabathi livuye ngokufa kwakhe, uya kuma ngeenyawo zakhe. Ngoku sikunyaka ka-2024, yaye kuyabonakala ukuba uTrump ubuyele ebomini, nangona kukho konke ukusetyenziswa komthetho njengezixhobo, ubuxoki, ubuxoki obusasazwayo, nemali ephoswa ngokuchasene naye.

In the controversy that manifests itself in the United States, and thus prefigures the same controversy in the world, a satanic power from beneath will come up during the time when the power of God as represented by the latter rain is coming down from above.

Kule mpikiswano izibonakalisa eUnited States, yaye ngaloo ndlela ibonakalisa kwangaphambili loo mpikiswano inye ehlabathini, amandla kaSathana aphuma ezantsi aya kunyuka ngelo xesha amandla kaThixo, amelwe yimvula yasekupheleni, ehla evela phezulu.

In the history of September 11, 2001, unto the soon coming Sunday law in the United States, Islam of the third Woe came out of the bottomless pit as smoke, representing the smoke of the burning buildings at the beginning of that history. In 2016, the Communist woke-ism of the globalists ascended to kill the two witnesses. Then at the soon coming Sunday law the papacy, who will then become the eighth beast that is of the seven, will ascend to the throne of the earth as its deadly wound is healed.

Kwimbali kaSeptemba 11, 2001, kuse kuthi ga kumthetho weCawa osondelayo e-United States, ubuSilamsi booyeha lwesithathu baphuma emhadini ongenasiphelo bunjengomsi, obumele umsi wezakhiwo ezazitshayo ekuqaleni kwale mbali. Ngo-2016, i-“woke-ism” yobukomanisi yabehlabathi yenyuka ukuze ibulale amangqina amabini. Ke ngoko, kumthetho weCawa osondelayo, upopu, oya kuthi ngelo xesha abe lirhamncwa lesibhozo eliphuma kwasixhenxe, uya kunyukela etroneni yomhlaba njengoko inxeba lalo lokufa liphiliswa.

The beasts that represent the power that comes from beneath, during the time when the latter rain is falling as the power from above, represent a prophetic “Truth.” The first that is to ascend as smoke is Islam of the third Woe, at the time when the first voice of Revelation chapter eighteen sounds, and it ascends when the latter rain begins to be “measured”. The last beast to ascend is the papacy, at the time when the second voice of Revelation chapter eighteen sounds, and it ascends when the latter rain is being poured out without measure.

Amarhamncwa amele amandla aphuma ezantsi, ngexesha imvula yasemva isina njengamandla aphuma phezulu, amele “iNyaniso” yesiprofeto. Owokuqala oza kunyuka njengomsi nguSulumane wesibhozo sesithathu, ngexesha ilizwi lokuqala leSityhilelo isahluko seshumi elinesibhozo livakala, yaye unyuka xa imvula yasemva iqala “ukulinganiswa”. Irhamncwa lokugqibela ukunyuka bubupopu, ngexesha ilizwi lesibini leSityhilelo isahluko seshumi elinesibhozo livakala, yaye linyuka xa imvula yasemva ithululwa ngaphandle komlinganiselo.

The first typifies the last, and the beast that ascends in the middle is the beast of atheistic globalism that slayed two witnesses in 2020. One witness was the Protestant horn, and the other was the Republican horn. The rebellion and anarchy associated with the beast of atheism is represented by the thirteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, and that beast from the bottomless pit arrived in between the first and last beasts from the bottomless pit, that creates the definition of the Hebrew word “truth”, even if it is a truth identifying the satanic power that comes from beneath during the time when the heavenly power is coming from above.

Owokuqala uyafana nowokugqibela, yaye irhamncwa elinyukayo phakathi lolo lwerhamncwa lobuathiyisti bengqonyela yehlabathi elabulala amangqina amabini ngowama-2020. Elinye ingqina yayiluphondo lwamaProtestanti, yaye elinye yayiluphondo lwamaRiphabhlikhi. Uvukelo nesiphithiphithi esinxulunyaniswa nerhamncwa lobuathiyisti zibonakaliswa ngonobumba weshumi elinesithathu woonobumba besiHebhere, yaye elo rhamncwa livela emhadini ongenasiphelo lafika phakathi kwerhamncwa lokuqala nelokugqibela avela emhadini ongenasiphelo, nto leyo eyenza inkcazo yegama lesiHebhere elithi “inyaniso”, nokuba iyinyaniso echonga amandla kaSathana aphuma ezantsi ngexesha amandla asezulwini eza evela phezulu.

Three and a half days after the two witnesses were slain a “middle voice” began to sound. It was “the voice of one crying in the wilderness”. That voice was the “ending” of the voice of the messenger that prepares the way for the Messenger of the Covenant, and the beginning of the voice of Elijah, calling men and women to Mount Carmel.

Emva kweentsuku ezintathu nesiqingatha emva kokuba amangqina amabini ebulewe, kwaqalisa ukuvakala “ilizwi eliphakathi.” Lelo yayili “ilizwi lalowo udanduluka entlango.” Elo lizwi laliyiyo “isiphelo” selizwi lomthunywa olungiselela indlela yoMthunywa womNqophiso, kwangaxeshanye lisisisiqalo selizwi likaEliya, libiza amadoda nabafazi ukuba beze eNtabeni yeKarmele.

> “Brethren and sisters, would that I might say something to awaken you to the importance of this time, the significance of the events that are now taking place. I point you to the aggressive movements now being made for the restriction of religious liberty. God’s sanctified memorial has been torn down, and in its place a false sabbath, bearing no sanctity, stands before the world. And while the powers of darkness are stirring up the elements from beneath, the Lord God of heaven is sending power from above to meet the emergency by arousing His living agencies to exalt the law of heaven. Now, just now, is our time to work in foreign countries. As America, the land of religious liberty, shall unite with the papacy in forcing the conscience and compelling men to honor the false sabbath, the people of every country on the globe will be led to follow her example. Our people are not half awake to do all in their power, with the facilities within their reach, to extend the message of warning.

> Bazalwana noodade, akwaba ndingathetha into eninokuvuselwa ngayo ekubalulekeni kweli xesha, ekubalulekeni kweziganeko ezenzekayo ngoku. Ndinitsalela ingqalelo kwiintshukumo ezirhabaxa ezenziwayo ngoku zokuthintela inkululeko yonqulo. Isikhumbuzo esingcwalisiweyo sikaThixo sidiliziwe, yaye endaweni yaso kumi iSabatha yobuxoki, engenabungcwele, phambi kwehlabathi. Kwaye lo gama amagunya obumnyama evuselela iziqalelo ezivela ngaphantsi, iNkosi uThixo wezulu ithumela amandla avela phezulu ukuze ihlangabezane nolu xanduva lungxamisekileyo ngokuvuselela abameli baYo abaphilayo ukuba baphakamise umthetho wezulu. Ngoku, kanye ngoku, lixesha lethu lokusebenza kumazwe angaphandle. Xa iMelika, ilizwe lenkululeko yonqulo, iya kumanyana nobupopu ekunyanzeliseni isazela nasekunyanzeleni abantu ukuba bahloniphe iSabatha yobuxoki, abantu bamazwe onke asemhlabeni baya kukhokelwa ukuba balandele umzekelo wayo. Abantu bethu abavukanga kwanesiqingatha ukuze benze konke okusemandleni abo, ngezixhobo ezisemandleni abo, ukwandisa umyalezo wesilumkiso.

> “The Lord God of heaven will not send upon the world His judgments for disobedience and transgression until He has sent His watchmen to give the warning. He will not close up the period of probation until the message shall be more distinctly proclaimed. The law of God is to be magnified; its claims must be presented in their true, sacred character, that the people may be brought to decide for or against the truth. Yet the work will be cut short in righteousness. The message of Christ’s righteousness is to sound from one end of the earth to the other to prepare the way of the Lord. This is the glory of God, which closes the work of the third angel.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18, 19.

> “INkosi uThixo wezulu ayiyi kulithumela phezu kwehlabathi imigwebo yaYo ngenxa yokungathobeli nokugqitha emthethweni ide kuqala ithumele abalindi baYo ukuba banike isilumkiso. Ayiyi kulivala ixesha lovavanyo de umyalezo uvakaliswe ngokucace ngakumbi. Umthetho kaThixo umele ukuphakanyiswa; amabango awo amele ukunikwa ngesimilo sawo sokwenyaniso, esingcwele, ukuze abantu baziswe ekuthatheni isigqibo sokuba babe ngakwicala lenyaniso okanye ngokuchasene nayo. Kanti ke umsebenzi uya kunqunyulwa ngobulungisa. Umyalezo wobulungisa bukaKristu umele ukuvakala ukusuka kwesinye isiphelo sehlabathi ukuya kwesinye ukuze kulungiswe indlela yeNkosi. Obu bubuqaqawuli bukaThixo, obugqibezela umsebenzi wengelosi yesithathu.” Testimonies, volume 6, 18, 19.

The message that began at the end of July, 2023 is now “distinctly proclaiming,” the “warning,” identifying “the importance of this time, the significance of the events that are now taking place.” It is distinctly identifying “the powers of darkness” who “are stirring up the elements from beneath,” and that “the Lord God of heaven” began “sending power from above” on September 11, 2001. It is “sounding” “the message of Christ’s righteousness” “from one end of the earth to the other.” It is high time to “awaken” “to the importance of this time,” for God is now going to begin to “send upon the world His judgments for disobedience and transgression.”

Umyalezo owaqala ekupheleni kukaJulayi, 2023 ngoku “uvakalisa ngokucacileyo,” “isilumkiso,” uchaza “ukubaluleka kweli xesha, intsingiselo yeziganeko ezenzekayo ngoku.” Uchaza ngokucacileyo “amagunya obumnyama” “avuselela iziqalelo ezivela ezantsi,” kwanokuba “iNkosi uThixo wezulu” yaqala “ukuthumela amandla avela phezulu” ngoSeptemba 11, 2001. “Uvakalisa” “umyalezo wobulungisa bukaKristu” “ukusuka kwesinye isiphelo somhlaba kuse kwesinye.” Lixesha eliphakamileyo “lokuvuka” “ekubalulekeni kweli xesha,” kuba ngoku uThixo uza kuqalisa “ukuthumela phezu kwehlabathi izigwebo zaKhe ngenxa yokungathobeli nokunxaxha.”

The line of prophecy represented with 1989 as the time of the end in verse forty, emphasizes the external history, of the internal line of prophecy represented with 1798, as the time of the end in verse forty of Daniel eleven. The prophetic history beginning at 1989 in the verse identifies the three-step process of the healing of papal Rome’s deadly wound. From 1989 until that wound is healed at the soon coming Sunday law represents a specific prophetic period. Verse two of Daniel eleven, adds a second line, by identifying the prophetic role of the presidents of the United States, beginning with Ronald Reagan in 1989. The prophetic period of time that leads to the Sunday law, has a second witness in the thirty years of preparation that was accomplished from 508 to 538, when the papacy took the throne the first time and passed a Sunday law that very year.

Umgca wesiprofeto omelweyo ngo-1989 njengexesha lokuphela kwindima yamashumi amane, ugxininisa imbali yangaphandle yomgca wangaphakathi wesiprofeto omelweyo ngo-1798 njengexesha lokuphela kwindima yamashumi amane kaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye. Imbali yesiprofeto eqala ngo-1989 kule ndima ichaza inkqubo enamanyathelo amathathu yokuphiliswa kwenxeba elibulalayo leRoma yobupopu. Ukususela ngo-1989 kude kube lelo nxeba liphilisiwe kumthetho weCawa oza kufika kungekudala, kumela ixesha elithile lesiprofeto. Indima yesibini kaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye yongeza umgca wesibini, ngokuchaza indima yesiprofeto yabongameli base-United States, iqala ngoRonald Reagan ngo-1989. Ixesha lesiprofeto elikhokelela kumthetho weCawa, linengqina lesibini kwiminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela eyafezekiswa ukusukela ku-508 ukuya ku-538, xa ubupopu bathabatha itrone okokuqala baza bawisa umthetho weCawa kwangaloo nyaka.

Christ was baptized and began His ministry of three and a half years when He was thirty years old. The papacy is a satanic counterfeit of Christ, and the thirty years from 508 to 538, counterfeits the first thirty years of Christ that led to His baptism. His three and a half years ministry were counterfeited by the three and a half prophetic years in which the papacy presented the world with its ministry of death, as a counterfeit of Christ’s ministry of life.

UKristu wabhaptizwa waza waqalisa ulungiselelo lwaKhe lweminyaka emithathu nesiqingatha xa wayeneminyaka emashumi amathathu ubudala. Ubupopu bubuxoki bukaSathana obulinganisa uKristu, yaye iminyaka emashumi amathathu ukusuka kowe-508 ukuya kowe-538 ilinganisa ngokobuxoki iminyaka yokuqala engamashumi amathathu kaKristu eyakhokelela ekubhaptizweni kwaKhe. Ulungiselelo lwaKhe lweminyaka emithathu nesiqingatha lwalulinganiswa ngokobuxoki yiminyaka emithathu nesiqingatha yesiprofeto apho ubupopu banikela ihlabathi ulungiselelo lwabo lokufa, njengobuxoki obulinganisa ulungiselelo lukaKristu lobomi.

At the end of His ministry He died, rested in the tomb on the seventh day, and then was resurrected. In 1798, at the end of the satanic ministry of the papacy for three and a half prophetic years the papacy received its deadly wound, then it has been forgotten for seventy symbolic years, until it is resurrected as the eighth that is of the seven. Christ was resurrected on the first day of the week, but sequentially the first day is the “eighth” day, and it is “of the seven” days which Christ created. Eight as a number represents “resurrection,” and the papacy gets resurrected, for it is the one kingdom of the kingdoms of Bible prophecy that has been identified as receiving a deadly wound.

Ekupheleni kobulungiseleli baKhe Wafa, waphumla engcwabeni ngomhla wesixhenxe, waza ke wavuswa. Ngo-1798, ekupheleni kobulungiseleli bukaSathana bobupopu obathatha iminyaka emithathu nesiqingatha yesiprofeto, ubupopu bafumana inxeba labo elibulalayo, baza ke balityalwa iminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe engokomfuziselo, de bavuswe njengowesibhozo ophuma kwabasixhenxe. UKristu wavuswa ngomhla wokuqala weveki, kodwa ngokolandelelwano umhla wokuqala “ngumhla wesibhozo,” yaye “uphuma kwabasixhenxe” iintsuku awazidalayo uKristu. Isibhozo, njengamanani, simela “uvuko,” yaye ubupopu buyavuswa, kuba bubo obo bukumkani bunye phakathi kwezikumkani zesiprofeto seBhayibhile obuye bachongwa njengobufumene inxeba elibulalayo.

Paul identifies that when God brought ancient Israel through the Red Sea, that baptism was symbolically represented.

UPawulos uchaza ukuba, xa uThixo wazisa uSirayeli wamandulo wanqumla uLwandle oluBomvu, apho ubhaptizo lwamelwa ngokomfuziselo.

> 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. 1 Corinthians 10:1, 2.

> Ngaphezu koko, bazalwana, andithandi ukuba ningazi ukuba bonke oobawo bethu babengaphantsi kwelifu, yaye bonke bawela ulwandle; yaye bonke babhaptizelwa kuMoses efini naselwandle. 1 Korinte 10:1, 2.

The rite of baptism for spiritual Israel replaced the rite of circumcision for literal Israel, and circumcision was to take place on the eighth day. Christ was therefore resurrected upon the eighth day, which is of the seven, and when the papacy is resurrected as the eighth which is of the seven, it is the satanic parallel to the line of Christ. The thirty years of preparation for the papacy to be enthroned, were typified by the thirty years of Christ’s life in preparation for His baptism, His ministry and death. Both of those lines identify a period that leads to the death of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. Both lines represent the last period of the earth beast. In the line of Christ, His birth marked the “time of the end” for that history.

Isithethe sobhaptizo sikaSirayeli womoya sathabatha indawo yesithethe solwaluko sikaSirayeli wokwenyama, yaye ulwaluko lwalumelwe ukuba lwenziwe ngomhla wesibhozo. Ngenxa yoko uKristu wavuswa ngomhla wesibhozo, ongowasixhenxe, yaye xa upopu buvuswa njengesibhozo ongowasixhenxe, bungumfanekiselo kaSathana ohambelana nomgca kaKristu. Iminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela ukuba upopu buhlaliswe etroneni, yafanekiswa yiminyaka engamashumi amathathu yobomi bukaKristu ekulungiseleleni ubhaptizo lwaKhe, ulungiselelo lwaKhe nokufa kwaKhe. Yomibini loo migca ichaza ixesha elikhokelela ekufeni kobukumkani besithandathu besiprofeto seBhayibhile. Yomibini imigca imela ixesha lokugqibela lerhamncwa lomhlaba. Kumgca kaKristu, ukuzalwa kwaKhe kwaphawula “ixesha lesiphelo” saloo mbali.

Thus, we have four lines. Verse forty’s time of the end in 1989 until the Sunday law of verse forty-one. Verse two’s presentation of the presidents, and the thirty years of preparation for both Christ and the antichrist. The thirty years of Christ began at the “time of the end” in His line, which was marked by His birth. The time of the end in 1798, was typified by the end of the seventy-year captivity of literal Israel in literal Babylon. Therefore, verse two of Daniel eleven begins with Darius, for Darius began to reign at the fall of Babylon. 1989 is the time of the end in verse forty, and verse two of Daniel eleven is also the time of the end, and the thirty years of Christ’s preparation began at “the time of the end”. Three of these four lines have “the time of the end” easily marked as the beginning waymark.

Ngoko ke, sinemigca emine. Ixesha lesiphelo levesi yamashumi amane ngo-1989 de kube ngumthetho weCawa wevesi yamashumi amane ananye. Inkcazo yevesi yesibini ngoomongameli, kunye neminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela bobabini uKristu nomchasi-kristu. Iminyaka engamashumi amathathu kaKristu yaqala “ngexesha lesiphelo” kumgca waKhe, elaphawulwa ngokuzalwa kwaKhe. Ixesha lesiphelo ngo-1798, lalingumfuziselo wokuphela kweminyaka engamashumi asixhenxe yokuthinjwa kukaSirayeli wokwenyama eBhabhiloni yokwenyama. Ngoko ke, ivesi yesibini kaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye iqala ngoDariyo, kuba uDariyo waqalisa ukulawula ekuweni kweBhabhiloni. U-1989 lixesha lesiphelo kwivesi yamashumi amane, kwaye ivesi yesibini kaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye ikwalixesha lesiphelo, kwaye iminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela kaKristu yaqala “ngexesha lesiphelo”. Emithathu kule migca mine “inexesha lesiphelo” eliphawulwa ngokulula njengophawu lwendlela lokuqala.

The two lines of two-hundred and twenty years in the movement of the first and the movement of the third angel identify two-hundred and twenty as a symbol of the link between humanity and divinity. The beginning of the symbolic link of two-hundred and twenty years that began in 1776, led to 1996.

Imigca emibini yeminyaka engamakhulu amabini anamashumi amabini ekuhambeni kwengelosi yokuqala nasekuhambeni kwengelosi yesithathu ichaza amakhulu amabini anamashumi amabini njengophawu lonxibelelwano phakathi kobuntu nobuthixo. Ukuqala kolu nxibelelwano olungumfuziselo lweminyaka engamakhulu amabini anamashumi amabini olwaqala ngowe-1776, lwakhokelela kowe-1996.

That period was typified by the two hundred and twenty years from 1611 to 1831 in the Millerite history. The period from the Declaration of Independence in 1776 to 1798 when the earth beast took the throne as the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, represents the first two of the three waymarks within the two hundred and twenty years that concluded in 1996.

Elo xesha yafanekiswa yiminyaka engamakhulu amabini anamashumi amabini ukusukela ngo-1611 ukuya ku-1831 kwimbali yamaMillerite. Ixesha elisusela kwiSibhengezo soZimelelo ngo-1776 ukuya ku-1798, xa irhamncwa lomhlaba lathabatha itrone njengobukumkani besithandathu besiprofeto seBhayibhile, limela ezokuqala ezimbini kwezi zimpawu zintathu ezingaphakathi kuloo minyaka ingamakhulu amabini anamashumi amabini eyagqitywa ngo-1996.

1776 to 1798 represents a period that leads to the empowerment of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, and therefore aligns with the thirty years of preparation of Christ and the antichrist. The period that precedes the empowerment of the earth beast represents the period that precedes the empowerment of the threefold union, which is the eighth beast that is of the seven. The eighth beast, that is of the seven, is the second and last manifestation of the papacy ruling the world. In the first manifestation of the papacy ruling the world there was a thirty-year period of preparation.

1776 ukuya ku-1798 kumela ixesha elikhokelela ekuxhotyisweni kobukumkani besithandathu besiprofeto seBhayibhile, yaye ngoko liyangqinelana neminyaka engamashumi amathathu yokulungiselela kaKristu neyomchasi-Kristu. Ixesha elandulela ukuxhotyiswa kwesilo somhlaba limela ixesha elandulela ukuxhotyiswa komanyano oluphindwe kathathu, olusisilo sesibhozo esiphuma kwesisixhenxe. Isilo sesibhozo, esiphuma kwesisixhenxe, sisibonakaliso sesibini nesokugqibela sobupopu obulawula ihlabathi. Kwisibonakaliso sokuqala sobupopu obabulawula ihlabathi kwakukho ixesha leminyaka engamashumi amathathu lokulungiselela.

Line upon line, the history of 1989 unto the Sunday law; the history of thirty years that led to 538; the history of thirty years that led to Christ’s baptism; the history of verse two of Daniel eleven, beginning with Ronald Reagan to the Sunday law; and the history of 1776 to 1798, are all representing the same history in the last days. It is essential to be clear concerning this fact, for the history beginning in 1776, unto 1798, is the line that brings all the lines together into clarity.

Umgca ngomgca, imbali ka-1989 kuse kuse emthethweni weCawa; imbali yeminyaka engamashumi amathathu eyakhokelela ku-538; imbali yeminyaka engamashumi amathathu eyakhokelela kubhaptizo lukaKristu; imbali yevesi lesibini likaDaniyeli ishumi elinanye, eqala ngoRonald Reagan kuse kuse emthethweni weCawa; kunye nembali ka-1776 kuse ku-1798, zonke zimele imbali enye ngemihla yokugqibela. Kubalulekile ukuba kucace gca ngokuphathelele le nyaniso, kuba imbali eqala ngo-1776, kuse ku-1798, ngumgca odibanisa yonke imigca kunye ukuba icace.

In that line of prophetic history, which is the closing history of the earth beast of Revelation thirteen, there is an internal line that addresses God’s people as represented by the horn of true Protestantism, and there is an external line as represented by the horn of Republicanism. In both horns there is a twofold struggle and controversy that prophecy addresses. We have been identifying the prophetic elements of the dragon, the beast, the false prophet and Islam that are manifested in the history of 1989 to the Sunday law.

Kuloo mgca wembali yesiprofeto, ongumbali wokuvala werhamncwa lasemhlabeni leSityhilelo seshumi elinesithathu, kukho umgca wangaphakathi ojolise kubantu bakaThixo njengoko bemelwe luphondo lobuProtestanti bokwenyaniso, kwaye kukho umgca wangaphandle njengoko umelwe luphondo lweRiphabhlikhanizim. Kuzo zombini iimpondo kukho umzabalazo nempikiswano ephindwe kabini ethethwa sisiprofeto. Besichonga izinto zesiprofeto zenamba, irhamncwa, umprofeti wobuxoki neSilamsi ezibonakaliswa kwimbali ka-1989 ukuya kumthetho weCawa.

The dragon’s prophetic characteristic is that he is the father of lies, he is the murderer, and he is the leader of the secret conspiracies on earth, just as he was in heaven. His religion is spiritualism. He is the champion of what is today called “lawfare,” he is the unholy attorney, the accuser of our brethren, as he was in the heavenly court when he disputed over the obedience and faith of Job, and when he disputed over the body of Moses, and as he further disputed over the work of Christ in removing the filthy garments off of Joshua in Zechariah chapter three. He is the one who rules the kingdoms, and the one who lifts himself up as God.

Uphawu olungokuprofeta lwenamba kukuba nguyise wobuxoki, ungumbulali, yaye uyinkokeli yeeyelenqe ezifihlakeleyo emhlabeni, kanye njengoko wayenjalo ezulwini. Inkolo yakhe bubuthakathi bomoya. Ungoyena mlweli uphambili wento namhlanje ebizwa ngokuba “kukusebenzisa umthetho njengesixhobo,” ungummeli ongengcwele, ummangaleli wabazalwana bethu, kanye njengoko wayenjalo enkundleni yasezulwini xa wayephikisana ngentobelo nokholo lukaYobhi, naxa wayephikisana ngomzimba kaMoses, kwananjengoko waqhubeka ephikisana ngomsebenzi kaKristu ekususeni iingubo ezingcolileyo kuYoshuwa kuZekariya isahluko sesithathu. Nguye olawula izikumkani, kwaye nguye oziphakamisa njengoThixo.

The beast’s religion is Catholicism, and she is the woman that deceives the world through traditions and customs which she leads her followers to believe are to be obeyed above the Word of God. She deceives the world through her sorceries, which in Revelation chapter eighteen verse twenty-three, is the Greek word pharmakeia, meaning “medications”. She is the one who commits fornication with the kings of the earth. She is the counterfeit of the One who was dead, but lives again. She is the one that is forgotten and then remembered, and she is the eighth that is of the seven. She is the beast which the United States forms an image of and an image to.

Inkolo yerhamncwa bubuKatolika, yaye ngulo umfazi okhohlisa ihlabathi ngezithethe namasiko awakhokelela ngawo abalandeli bakhe ekubeni bakholelwe ukuba makathotyelwe ngaphezu kweLizwi likaThixo. Ukhohlisa ihlabathi ngobugqwirha bakhe, obuthi kwisiTyhilelo isahluko seshumi elinesibhozo umqolo wamashumi amabini anesithathu, bube ligama lesiGrike elithi pharmakeia, elithetha “amayeza”. Ngulo owenza uhenyuzo nookumkani bomhlaba. Ungumlinganiso wobuxoki waLowo wayefile, kodwa wabuya waphila. Nguye lowo ulibalekayo aze aphinde akhunjulwe, yaye ungowesibhozo ophuma kwabasixhenxe. Ngulirhamncwa elo iUnited States eyenza umfanekiso walo nomfanekiso kulo.

The false prophet is apostate Protestantism, who presumes to be something which the Word of God denies, and because of its denial of the Word of God, it lacks the power provided by the Word of God. Without the power of the Word of God, a church or a people who still presumptuously claim to be God’s people, are logically forced to lean upon civil power to pretend that they are accomplishing God’s work. Apostate Protestantism is the prophets of Baal and Ashtaroth who provide the deceptive dance for Jezebel and Herodias, and they are Salome, the daughter of Herodias.

Umprofeti wobuxoki bubuProtestanti obuwexukileyo, obuzicingela ukuba buyinto ethi iLizwi likaThixo liyiphike, yaye ngenxa yokuphika kwabo iLizwi likaThixo, abunawo amandla abonelelwa liLizwi likaThixo. Ngaphandle kwamandla eLizwi likaThixo, ibandla okanye abantu abasazicingela ngobugwagwa ukuba bangabantu bakaThixo, ngokwengqiqo banyanzelekile ukuba baxhomekeke kumandla olawulo lwaseburhulumenteni ukuze bazenze ngathi bayawenza umsebenzi kaThixo. UbuProtestanti obuwexukileyo ngabaprofeti bakaBhahali noAshtaroti abenza umdaniso wokulukuhla ngenxa kaYezebhele noHerodiya, yaye bangoSalome, intombi kaHerodiya.

These three powers come together into a threefold union, but they actually hate each other. Without understanding the fact that they are in controversy with each other it is impossible to understand how the ten kings (the United Nations), would agree to give their kingdom to the papacy, and in the same chapter eat her flesh and burn her with fire. The controversy between these powers is to be taught to God’s students of prophecy.

La magunya mathathu adibana abe ngumanyano oluphindwe kathathu, kodwa eneneni ayathiyelana. Ngaphandle kokuqonda inyaniso yokuba asemfazweni yengxabano omnye nomnye akunakwenzeka ukuqonda indlela ookumkani abalishumi (iZizwe eziManyeneyo), abanokuvuma ngayo ukunikela ubukumkani babo kubupopu, baze kwakweso sahluko basidle inyama yakhe, bamtshise ngomlilo. Ingxabano ephakathi kwala magunya imele ukufundiswa kubafundi bakaThixo besiprofeto.

Islam is the seventh trumpet, and as the third woe it is the tool of judgment that God employs to bring judgment upon modern Babylon, as the first four trumpets brought judgment upon western pagan Rome and as the fifth and sixth trumpets brought judgment on papal and eastern pagan Rome

I-Islam lixilongo lesixhenxe, yaye njengelishwa lesithathu sisixhobo sesigwebo uThixo asisebenzisayo ukuzisa isigwebo phezu kweBhabheli yanamhlanje, njengokuba amaxilongo amane okuqala azisa isigwebo phezu kweRoma yobuhedeni yasentshona, kwananjengokuba amaxilongo esihlanu nelesithandathu azisa isigwebo phezu kweRoma yobupopu neRoma yobuhedeni yasempuma.

We will continue this study in the next article.

Siza kuqhubeka esi sifundo kwinqaku elilandelayo.

> “In these times of special interest, the guardians of the flock of God should teach the people that the spiritual powers are in controversy. It is not human beings that are creating such intensity of feeling as now exists in the religious world. A power from Satan’s spiritual synagogue is infusing the religious elements of the world, arousing men to decided action to press the advantages Satan has gained, by leading the religious world in determined warfare against those who make the word of God their guide and the sole foundation of doctrine. Satan’s masterly efforts are now put forth to gather in every principle and every power that he can employ to controvert the binding claims of the law of Jehovah, especially the fourth commandment, that defines who is the Creator of the heavens and the earth.

> “Kula maxesha anomdla okhethekileyo, abalusi bomhlambi kaThixo bafanele bafundise abantu ukuba amagunya omoya akwimpikiswano. Asingabantu abavelisa olo qhushululu lwemvakalelo lukhulu kangaka njengoko lukhoyo ngoku kwihlabathi lenkolo. Igunya eliphuma kwindlu yesikhungu yokomoya kaSathana lifaka amandla kwizinto zonqulo zehlabathi, livuselela abantu ukuba benze isenzo esiqinisekileyo sokunyanzelisa izibonelelo azizuzileyo uSathana, ngokukhokelela ihlabathi lonqulo emfazweni eqinisekileyo nxamnye nabo benza ilizwi likaThixo isikhokelo sabo nesiseko sodwa semfundiso. Imizamo kaSathana yobungcibi obukhulu ngoku iyasetyenziswa ukuqokelela umgaqo wonke namandla onke anokuwasebenzisa ukuze aphikisane namabango anyanzelekileyo omthetho kaYehova, ngakumbi umthetho wesine, ochaza ukuba ngubani uMdali wamazulu nomhlaba.

> “The man of sin has thought to change times and laws; but has he done it? This is the great issue. Rome and all the churches that have drunk of her cup of iniquity, in thinking to change times and laws, have exalted themselves above God, and torn down God’s great memorial, the seventh-day Sabbath. The Sabbath was to stand representing God’s power in his creation of the world in six days, and his resting upon the seventh day. ‘Wherefore he blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it,’ because that in it he had rested from all his works which God created and made. The object of the masterly working of the great deceiver has been to supersede God. In his efforts to change times and laws, he has been working to maintain a power in opposition to God, and above him.

> “Umntu wesono ucinge ukuguqula amaxesha nemithetho; kodwa ngaba ukwenzile oko? Lo ngumba omkhulu. IRoma nawo onke amabandla asele esele indebe yobugwenxa bayo, ngokucinga ukuguqula amaxesha nemithetho, aziphakamisile ngaphezu koThixo, aza ayidiliza isikhumbuzo esikhulu sikaThixo, iSabatha yosuku lwesixhenxe. ISabatha yayimele ukuma imelwe amandla kaThixo ekudaleni kwakhe ihlabathi ngeentsuku ezintandathu, nasekuphumleni kwakhe ngosuku lwesixhenxe. ‘Kungoko walusikelela usuku lweSabatha, walungcwalisa,’ kuba ngalo wayephumle kuyo yonke imisebenzi yakhe awayidalayo wayenza uThixo. Injongo yokusebenza ngobuchule komkhohlisi omkhulu ibe kukuthabathel’ indawo uThixo. Kwimizamo yakhe yokuguqula amaxesha nemithetho, ebezama ukuxhasa amandla achasene noThixo, nangaphezu kwakhe.

> “Here is the great issue. Here are the two great powers confronting each other,—the Prince of God, Jesus Christ; and the prince of darkness, Satan. Here comes the open conflict. There are but two classes in the world, and every human being will range under one of these two banners,—the banner of the prince of darkness, or the banner of Jesus Christ.

> “Nanku umba omkhulu. Nazi izigunya ezibini ezikhulu ezime ngokuchasene,—iNkosana kaThixo, uYesu Kristu; kunye nenkosana yobumnyama, uSathana. Nantsi ke impixano evulekileyo. Kukho amaqela amabini kuphela ehlabathini, yaye wonke umntu uya kuma phantsi kwesinye kwezi zibhengezo zibini,—isibhengezo senkosana yobumnyama, okanye isibhengezo sikaYesu Kristu.

> “God will inspire his loyal and true children with his Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the representative of God, and will be the mighty working agent in our world to bind the loyal and true into bundles for the Lord’s garner. Satan is also with intense activity gathering together in bundles his tares from among the wheat.

> “UThixo uya kubaphefumlela ngoMoya waKhe abantwana baKhe abanyanisekileyo nabathembekileyo. UMoya oyiNgcwele ngummeli kaThixo, yaye uya kuba ngummeli onamandla osebenzayo kwihlabathi lethu wokubopha abanyanisekileyo nabathembekileyo babe zizithungu zengqolowa eziza kungeniswa esibayeni seNkosi. Naye uSathana usebenza ngamandla amakhulu, ehlanganisa ndawonye abe zizithungu ukhula lwakhe phakathi kwengqolowa.

> “The teaching of every true ambassador for Christ is a most solemn, serious matter now. We are engaged in a warfare which will never close until the final decision is made for all eternity. Let every disciple of Jesus be reminded that we ‘wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.’ O, there are eternal interests involved in this conflict, and there must be no surface work, no cheap experience, to meet this issue. ‘The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished…. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, March 4, 1895.

> “Imfundiso yomthunywa ngamnye oyinyaniso kaKristu ingumba onobunzulu obukhulu, onzulu kakhulu ngeli xesha. Sibandakanyeke emfazweni ongasoze uphele de kugqitywe isigqibo sokugqibela ngobomi bonke banaphakade. Makakhunjuzwe wonke umfundi kaYesu ukuba ‘asizabalazi nenyama negazi, kodwa nezikhulu, namagunya, nabalawuli bobumnyama beli hlabathi, nemikhosi yomoya yobubi kwezasezulwini.’ Owu, kukho izilangazelelo ezingunaphakade ezibandakanyekileyo kulo mlo, yaye makungabikho msebenzi ongaphezulu nje komphandle, kungabikho namava atshiphu, okuhlangabezana nalo mba. ‘INkosi iyayazi indlela yokuhlangula abangcwele ekuhendweni, nokugcina abangengomalungisa kude kube ngumhla womgwebo, ukuba bohlwaywe…. Kanti zona izithunywa zezulu, ezinkulu ngamandla nangobugorha, azizisi sigxeko sitshabhisayo ngakubo phambi kweNkosi.’” General Conference Daily Bulletin, Matshi 4, 1895.
