We are in the process of identifying the prophetic environment which exists when the final president of the United States, becomes empowered as a despot in the history leading to the soon coming Sunday law. Nothing is done in a vacuum, and the citizenry of the earth beast is fairly equally divided in their assessment of Trump. Those who sympathize with his view can readily see why he needs to clean up the swamp, and why it is virtually impossible to happen, without Trump assuming the role of a dictator. The most powerful dictators are those who have a high percentage of the population supporting the work the dictator is attempting to do. Prior to Hitler’s rise to power it would take a wheelbarrow full of cash to buy a loaf of bread.

Sisesimeni sokuhlonza isimo sesiprofetho esikhona lapho umongameli wokugcina wase-United States enikwa amandla njengombusi ongenamkhawulo emlandweni oholela emthethweni weSonto osuzofika maduze. Akukho okwenzekayo kungabi nasimo okwenziwa kuso, futhi izakhamuzi zesilo somhlaba zihlukaniseke cishe ngokulinganayo ekuhloleni kwazo uTrump. Labo abazwelana nombono wakhe bangabona kalula ukuthi kungani kudingeka ahlanze ixhaphozi, nokuthi kungani cishe kungenakwenzeka ukuba lokho kwenzeke ngaphandle kokuba uTrump athathe indima yombusi ongundlovukayiphikiswa. Ababusi abangundlovukayiphikiswa abanamandla kakhulu yilabo abanengxenye enkulu yabantu esekela umsebenzi lowo umbusi azama ukuwenza. Ngaphambi kokuphakama kukaHitler embusweni kwakudingeka inqola yesandla egcwele imali ukuze kuthengwe isinkwa esisodwa.

Hitler turned that around, and though the Germans do not wish to acknowledge much of that history, Hitler had widespread support for his work. The issues confronting the United States, and the entire world, are producing a distinction between citizens, and lines are now being drawn. The time from the Revolutionary War unto 1798 represents a period of preparation that aligns with the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand. The Patriot Act marked the beginning of the spiritual repetition of the Revolutionary War. Jesus always illustrates the end with the beginning, and the earth beast began with a Revolutionary War, so it will end with one. The first was literal, the last is spiritual.

UHitler wakuguqula lokho, futhi nakuba amaJalimane engafisi ukuvuma okuningi kwalowo mlando, uHitler wayesekelwa kakhulu emsebenzini wakhe. Izindaba ezibhekene ne-United States, kanye nomhlaba wonke, ziveza umehluko phakathi kwezakhamuzi, futhi imigqa manje isiyadwetshwa. Isikhathi esisukela eMpini Yenkululeko kuze kube ngu-1798 simelela inkathi yokulungiselela ehambisana nesikhathi sokubekwa uphawu sabayizinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane. I-Patriot Act yaba uphawu lokuqala kokuphindwa ngokomoya kweMpi Yenkululeko. UJesu njalo ubonakalisa ukuphela ngesiqalo, futhi isilo somhlaba saqala ngeMpi Yenkululeko, ngakho siyophela ngayo. Eyokuqala yayingokoqobo, eyokugcina ingeyokomoya.

The US Civil War was literal and is to be repeated in the last days. It marked the arrival of the first Republican president, who typifies the last Republican president. The republican party came into existence as an anti-slavery party, in order to oppose the long-established pro-slavery party of the Democrats. That political argument produced the Civil War, and the presidency of Lincoln. It is therefore impossible to separate the first Republican president from the Civil War, so the last Republican president will inherit an immediate prelude to a Civil War. Jesus employed the natural world to illustrate the spiritual world. The party of the dragon, has for its father, the father of lies, and the hallmark of the Democratic party is falsehood. A classic illustration of this tactic is their claim that they are the party that is sympathetic with minorities.

Impi Yombango yase-United States yayiyimpi yangempela futhi izophindwa ezinsukwini zokugcina. Yaphawula ukufika kukamongameli wokuqala weQembu lamaRiphabhulikhi, omela ngomfanekiso umongameli wokugcina walelo Qembu lamaRiphabhulikhi. Iqembu lamaRiphabhulikhi lavela njengoqembu oluphikisana nobugqila, ukuze limelane neqembu lamaDemokhrasi elase lisekela ubugqila isikhathi eside. Leyo mpikiswano yezepolitiki yazala iMpi Yombango, kanye nobumongameli bukaLincoln. Ngakho-ke akunakwenzeka ukuhlukanisa umongameli wokuqala weQembu lamaRiphabhulikhi neMpi Yombango, ngakho nomongameli wokugcina weQembu lamaRiphabhulikhi uyokwamukela isingeniso esiseduze ngokushesha seMpi Yombango. UJesu wasebenzisa umhlaba wemvelo ukuveza umhlaba womoya. Iqembu likadrako, linoyise walo onguyise wamanga, futhi uphawu oluvelele lweqembu lamaDemokhrasi ngamanga. Isibonelo esijwayelekile saleli qhinga yisimangalo sabo sokuthi bayiqembu elinozwelo kwabancane.

> Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matthew 7:15–20.

> Xwayani ngabaprofethi bamanga, abeza kini begqoke izembatho zezimvu, kodwa ngaphakathi bayizimpisi ezihahayo. Niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo. Ngabe abantu bakha amagilebhisi emeveni, noma amakhiwane emakhakhasini? Kanjalo-ke yonke imithi emihle ithela izithelo ezinhle; kodwa imithi ebolileyo ithela izithelo ezimbi. Umuthi omuhle ungebe wathela izithelo ezimbi, nomuthi obolileyo ungebe wathela izithelo ezinhle. Yonke imithi engatheli izithelo ezinhle iyagawulwa, iphonswe emlilweni. Ngakho-ke niyakubazi ngezithelo zabo. NgokukaMathewu 7:15–20.

The roots of a tree determine the fruit it will bear, and the roots of the Democratic party is their pro-slavery position. The roots of the Republican party is their anti-slavery position.

Izimpande zomuthi zinquma isithelo oyosithela, futhi izimpande zeqembu leDemocratic ziyisikhundla salo esisekela ubugqila. Izimpande zeqembu leRepublican ziyisikhundla salo esiphikisa ubugqila.

> Righteous art thou, O Lord, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously? Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root: they grow, yea, they bring forth fruit: thou art near in their mouth, and far from their reins. Jeremiah 12:1, 2.

> Ulungile wena, Jehova, lapho ngikhalaza kuwe; nokho ake ngikhulume nawe ngezahlulelo zakho: Kungani indlela yababi iphumelela na? kungani bonke abenza ngokukhohlisa okukhulu bechuma na? Wena ubatshalile, yebo, sebenezimpande; bayakhula, yebo, bathela izithelo; useduze emlonyeni wabo, kodwa ukude nezinso zabo. Jeremiya 12:1, 2.

The coming Civil War is placed in the context of the “monied men,” as Sister White calls them, controlling the marketplace in order to reap the wealth of the nations, while treading down the poor.

Impi Yombango ezayo ibekwa esimweni “samadoda emali,” njengoba uDade White ewabiza kanjalo, alawula imakethe ukuze avune ingcebo yezizwe, kuyilapho ecindezela abampofu.

> “In India, China, Russia, and the cities of America, thousands of men and women are dying of starvation. The monied men, because they have the power, control the market. They purchase at low rates all they can obtain, and then sell at greatly increased prices. This means starvation to the poorer classes, and will result in a civil war.” Manuscript Releases, volume 5, 305.

> “ENdiya, eChina, eRussia, nasemizini yaseMelika, izinkulungwane zamadoda nabesifazane zibulawa yindlala. Amadoda anemali, ngenxa yokuthi enamandla, alawula imakethe. Athenga ngamanani aphansi konke angakuthola, bese ethengisa ngamanani anyuswe kakhulu. Lokhu kusho indlala ezigabeni ezimpofu, futhi kuyoholela empini yombango.” Manuscript Releases, umqulu 5, 305.

The Civil War of Lincoln’s history was literal and addressed literal enslavement. The dragon-inspired globalists are producing a Civil War in the last days that is based upon their efforts to eliminate the middle class, leaving only the super-rich elites, and the super-poor serfs. It is the middle class that preserves social, economic and religious freedom, and when it is removed there is no buffer against the implementation of feudalism. The main achievement of the French Revolution was that it ended the system of feudalism, which the globalists are now seeking to reimpose, by removing the middle class. The globalists plan is largely based upon flooding the middle class with illegal immigrants, which reduces economic production, lowers wages and enlarges the state welfare system.

Impi Yombango yomlando kaLincoln yayiyinto eyenzeka ngokoqobo futhi yayibhekene nobugqila bangokoqobo. Abomhlaba wonke abagqugquzelwa ngudrako bakha iMpi Yombango ezinsukwini zokugcina esekelwe emizamweni yabo yokuqeda isigaba esiphakathi, kushiyeke kuphela izikhulu ezicebe ngokwedlulele, nezinceku ezimpofu ngokwedlulele. Yisigaba esiphakathi esigcina inkululeko yezenhlalo, yezomnotho neyezenkolo, futhi lapho sisuswa akusekho sivimbelo ekusetshenzisweni kobukhosi bama-feudal. Impumelelo enkulu yeNguquko yaseFrance kwakuwukuba yaqeda uhlelo lobukhosi bama-feudal, okuyilo manje abomhlaba wonke abafuna ukulubuyisela, ngokususa isigaba esiphakathi. Uhlelo lwabomhlaba wonke lusekelwe kakhulu ekugcwaliseni isigaba esiphakathi ngabokufika abangekho emthethweni, okwehlisa ukukhiqiza komnotho, kwehlise amaholo futhi kwandise uhlelo lukahulumeni lwenhlalakahle.

Leading up to the Second World War, during the great depression Father Charles Coughlin, a Roman Catholic priest, gained fame for his radio broadcasts, which reached millions of listeners across the country. His radio broadcasts paralleled the influence of Rush Limbaugh in the recent past. Coughlin used his radio platform to discuss a wide range of topics, including politics, economics, and social issues. He initially supported President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal. Coughlin’s radio broadcasts, which were often inflammatory and controversial, made him a polarizing figure in American politics. While he had a large and dedicated following, he also faced criticism and condemnation from various quarters for his extremist views.

Ngaphambi kokugqashuka kweMpi Yezwe Yesibili, ngesikhathi soKuwohloka Okukhulu Komnotho, uBaba uCharles Coughlin, umpristi wamaRoma Katolika, waduma kakhulu ngezinhlelo zakhe zomsakazo, ezafinyelela ezigidini zabalaleli ezweni lonke. Izinhlelo zakhe zomsakazo zazilingana ngomthelela nalowo kaRush Limbaugh ezikhathini ezisanda kudlula. UCoughlin wasebenzisa inkundla yakhe yomsakazo ukuxoxa ngezihloko eziningi ezahlukene, kuhlanganisa ezombusazwe, ezomnotho, nezindaba zenhlalo. Ekuqaleni wayesekela uMongameli uFranklin D. Roosevelt kanye noHlelo lwakhe Olusha. Izinhlelo zomsakazo zikaCoughlin, ezazivame ukuba zivuse ulaka futhi ziphikisane kakhulu, zamenza umuntu owahlukanisa imibono kwezombusazwe zaseMelika. Nakuba ayenenqwaba yabalandeli abazinikele, wabhekana nokugxekwa nokulahlwa emikhakheni ehlukahlukene ngenxa yemibono yakhe eyeqisayo.

The initial political, economic and social views of Coughlin were adopted by Franklin Roosevelt and became his blueprint for his New Deal policies, which introduced the bane of the escalating Social Security system, and the welfare system in the United States. His New Deal policies became the hallmark of his legacy, and was an element of the prophetic scenario that led to, and followed after World War Two. “By their fruits ye shall know them.” Due to the implementation of Roosevelt’s New Deal policies the great depression lasted much longer in the United States than any other nation in the world.

Imibono yokuqala kaCoughlin yezombusazwe, yezomnotho, neyenhlalo yamukelwa nguFranklin Roosevelt, yaba isibonelo sakhe senqubomgomo ze-New Deal, ezangenisa isiqalekiso sohlelo lwe-Social Security olwalulokhu lukhula, kanye nohlelo lwenhlalakahle e-United States. Izinqubomgomo zakhe ze-New Deal zaba uphawu lwefa lakhe, futhi zaba yingxenye yesimo sesiprofetho esaholela eMpini Yezwe Yesibili, nesalandela emva kwayo. “Niyobazi ngezithelo zabo.” Ngenxa yokusetshenziswa kwezinqubomgomo zikaRoosevelt ze-New Deal, ukuwohloka okukhulu komnotho kwaqhubeka isikhathi eside kakhulu e-United States kunanoma yiliphi elinye izwe emhlabeni.

Roosevelt was a Democrat, and therefore a dragon-inspired globalist. The New Deal policies he introduced were part of a long-range plan to produce a citizenry of super-rich and super-poor. The literal slavery of the Civil War represents the spiritual and economic slavery that is now accelerating at warp-speed, as the globalist billionaire merchants of modern Babylon finance the widespread illegal immigration that is designed to bring Roosevelt’s New Deal to their understanding of perfection. The last president, who will be confronted by the Third World War, will also be confronted by the crisis of the program of social-dependency put in place by the president during the Second World War. Inspiration identifies this fact, and also identifies that the leaders in the last days will not know how to address the problem.

URoosevelt wayenguDemocrat, ngakho-ke wayengowomhlaba wonke ophefumulelwe yidrako. Izinqubomgomo ze-New Deal azethula zazingengxenye yohlelo lwesikhathi eside lokukhiqiza isakhamuzi esakhiwe ngabacebe ngokwedlulele nabampofu ngokwedlulele. Ubugqila bangokoqobo beMpi Yombango bumele ubugqila bokomoya nobomnotho manje obusheshayo ngokwesivinini esikhulu kakhulu, njengoba abathengisi abangongxiwankulu bomhlaba wonke baseBabiloni lesimanje bexhasa ngezimali ukufuduka okungekho emthethweni okusabalele, okuhlelelwe ukuletha i-New Deal kaRoosevelt ekuqondeni kwabo ukuphelela. Umongameli wokugcina, oyobhekana neMpi Yezwe Yesithathu, uyobhekana futhi nenhlekelele yohlelo lokuncika kwezenhlalo olwasungulwa ngumongameli ngesikhathi seMpi Yezwe Yesibili. Ugqozi luyaliqokomisa leli qiniso, futhi luphinde luveze ukuthi abaholi bezinsuku zokugcina abayokwazi ukuthi bangayisingatha kanjani le nkinga.

> “There are not many, even among educators and statesmen, who comprehend the causes that underlie the present state of society. Those who hold the reins of government are not able to solve the problem of moral corruption, poverty, pauperism, and increasing crime. They are struggling in vain to place business operations on a more secure basis. If men would give more heed to the teaching of God’s word, they would find a solution of the problems that perplex them.

> “Ababaningi, ngisho naphakathi kwabafundisi nabaphathi bezwe, abaqondi izimbangela ezisekelisa isimo somphakathi samanje. Labo ababambe izintambo zombuso abakwazi ukuxazulula inkinga yokonakala kokuziphatha, ubumpofu, ukuswela, kanye nokwanda kobugebengu. Balwela ngeze ukubeka imisebenzi yezamabhizinisi esisekelweni esiqine kakhulu. Ukuba abantu bebenganaka kakhulu imfundiso yezwi likaNkulunkulu, bebeyothola isixazululo sezinkinga ezibadidayo.”

> “The Scriptures describe the condition of the world just before Christ’s second coming. Of the men who by robbery and extortion are amassing great riches, it is written: ‘Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the laborers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter. Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.’ James 5:3–6.” Testimonies, volume 9, 13.

> “ImiBhalo ichaza isimo sezwe ngaphambi nje kokubuya kwesibili kukaKristu. Ngabantu abathi ngokuphanga nangokucindezela baqongelele ingcebo enkulu, kulotshiwe ukuthi: ‘Niqongelele umcebo ezinsukwini zokugcina. Bhekani, inkokhelo yabasebenzi abavune amasimu enu, eniyigodlile ngenkohliso, iyakhala; nokukhala kwabavuni sekufinyelele ezindlebeni zeNkosi yeMikhosi. Niphile ngokuzitika emhlabeni, naphila ngokuxegiselwa; nikhuluphalisile izinhliziyo zenu njengosuku lokuhlatshwa. Nilahle umlandu futhi nabulala olungileyo; akamelani nani.’ Jakobe 5:3–6.” Testimonies, volume 9, 13.

The last president will “hold the reins of government,” but he will not be able “to solve the problem of moral corruption, poverty, pauperism, and increasing crime.” Nor will he be able to “place business operations on a more secure basis.” All of these problems are associated with the bankers and billionaire merchants of the last days. “Pauperism,” is used to describe the condition of those who rely on poor-relief or welfare provided by local governments or charitable organizations. In many societies, pauperism was associated with social stigma and often resulted in marginalization and discrimination against those experiencing poverty. The program in American history that has produced “pauperism,” is the program that is supposedly designed to relieve those trapped in poverty to elevate themselves. Instead, it produced a system of government welfare to hold those paupers in economic slavery.

Umongameli wokugcina “uyobamba izintambo zombuso,” kodwa ngeke akwazi “ukuxazulula inkinga yokonakala kokuziphatha, ubumpofu, ubudlakela bokuncika osizweni, nobugebengu obandayo.” Futhi ngeke akwazi “ukubeka ukusebenza kwezohwebo esisekelweni esiqine ngokwengeziwe.” Zonke lezi zinkinga zihlotshaniswa nababhange nabathengisi abangamabhiliyoni bezinsuku zokugcina. “Ubudlakela bokuncika osizweni,” busetshenziselwa ukuchaza isimo salabo abathembele osizweni lwabampofu noma enhlalakahleni olunikezwa ohulumeni bendawo noma izinhlangano zosizo. Emiphakathini eminingi, ubudlakela bokuncika osizweni babuhlotshaniswa nehlazo lomphakathi futhi ngokuvamile babuholela ekubekweni eceleni nasekubandlululweni kwalabo ababhekene nobumpofu. Uhlelo emlandweni waseMelika oluye lwakhiqiza “ubudlakela bokuncika osizweni,” yilolo hlelo okuthiwa lwaklanyelwa ukusiza labo ababambeke ebumpofini ukuba baziphakamise. Esikhundleni salokho, lwakhiqiza uhlelo lwenhlalakahle kahulumeni lokubamba labo bampofu ebugqilini bezomnotho.

Immediately after World War Two the United Nations began to operate. This provided a second witness from the first two world wars that the seventh kingdom (the United Nations) will be placed upon the throne of the earth. The first world war identified the role of the global banking system that was adopted in the history of the first world war, and the intentions of those world bankers and merchants to return to the feudal system, as represented in the second world war. All of these designs; the one-world government, the economic system of super-rich ruling the super-poor, and the one-world financial system that will only allow whoever it sees fit to participate in, came from the dragon, who is at war with the eighth president, that is of the seven.

Ngokushesha emva kweMpi Yezwe Yesibili, iNhlangano Yezizwe yaqala ukusebenza. Lokhu kwanikeza ufakazi wesibili ovela ezimpini zomhlaba ezimbili zokuqala wokuthi umbuso wesikhombisa (iNhlangano Yezizwe) uyobekwa esihlalweni sobukhosi somhlaba. Impi yezwe yokuqala yaveza indima yohlelo lwamabhange omhlaba wonke olwemukelwa emlandweni wempi yezwe yokuqala, kanye nezinhloso zalabo babhange bomhlaba nabathengisi zokubuyela ohlelweni lwezifeudo, njengoba lwavezwa empini yezwe yesibili. Yonke le miklamo—uhulumeni womhlaba munye, uhlelo lomnotho lapho abanothe ngokwedlulele bebusa abampofu ngokwedlulele, kanye nohlelo lwezezimali lomhlaba munye oluyovumela kuphela lowo olubona emfanele ukuba abambe iqhaza kulo—yavela kudrako, olwa nempi nomongameli wesishiyagalombili, ongowabayisikhombisa.

The logic represented by these factors clearly illustrates a president who will feel compelled to become dictatorial in his approach to problem solving. We are simply identifying the prophetic environment which God’s Word has identified will unfold during the history of the final president of the earth beast. In the previous article we referenced a passage from The Great Controversy where she identifies the “temporal prosperity” being removed before the Sunday law. The passage identifies many prophetic characteristics of the last days, and the points she addresses find their fulfillments in the image of the beast testing time in both the United States and thereafter in the world. She identifies the two issues which Satan employs to capture the world as spiritualism and Sunday sacredness. While referencing the miracles of healing that Satan will employ, she identifies another prophetic issue of our times.

Umqondo omelwe yilezi zici uveza ngokusobala umongameli ozokuzizwa ephoqelekile ukuba abe ngowobushiqela endleleni yakhe yokuxazulula izinkinga. Simane sikhomba isimo sesiprofetho iZwi likaNkulunkulu eliveze ukuthi siyokwambulwa phakathi nomlando womongameli wokugcina wesilo sasemhlabeni. Esihlokweni esedlule sabhekisa endimeni etholakala ku-The Great Controversy lapho eveza khona ukuthi “ukuchuma kwesikhashana” kuyosuswa ngaphambi komthetho weSonto. Leyo ndima iveza izici eziningi zesiprofetho sezinsuku zokugcina, futhi amaphuzu awakhuluma ngawo athola ukugcwaliseka kwawo esikhathini sokuvivinywa komfanekiso wesilo kokubili e-United States bese kuthi kamuva emhlabeni. Uveza izindaba ezimbili uSathane azisebenzisayo ukubamba umhlaba, okuwukukhonza imimoya nobungcwele beSonto. Ngenkathi ebhekisa ezimangalisweni zokuphilisa uSathane ayozisebenzisa, uphinde aveze olunye udaba lwesiprofetho lwesikhathi sethu.

> “Through the two great errors, the immortality of the soul and Sunday sacredness, Satan will bring the people under his deceptions. While the former lays the foundation of spiritualism, the latter creates a bond of sympathy with Rome. The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience.

> “Ngalezi ziphambeko ezimbili ezinkulu, ukungafi komphefumulo nobungcwele beSonto, uSathane uyoletha abantu ngaphansi kokukhohliswa kwakhe. Ngenkathi okokuqala kubeka isisekelo semimoya, okwesibili kwakha isibopho sokuvumelana neRoma. AmaProthestani ase-United States ayoba ngabokuqala ekweluleni izandla zawo ngaphesheya komhosha ukuze abambe isandla semimoya; ayowelula ngaphesheya kwalasha ukuze axhawulane nombuso waseRoma; futhi ngaphansi kwethonya lolu bumbano oluphindwe kathathu, leli zwe liyolandela ezinyathelweni zaseRoma ekunyatheliseni amalungelo kanembeza.”

> “As spiritualism more closely imitates the nominal Christianity of the day, it has greater power to deceive and ensnare. Satan himself is converted, after the modern order of things. He will appear in the character of an angel of light. Through the agency of spiritualism, miracles will be wrought, the sick will be healed, and many undeniable wonders will be performed. And as the spirits will profess faith in the Bible, and manifest respect for the institutions of the church, their work will be accepted as a manifestation of divine power.

> “Njengoba ukusebenzelana nemimoya kulingisa ngokuseduze kakhudlwana ubuKristu bokuzisholo bezinsuku zanamuhla, kunamandla amakhulu okukhohlisa nokubamba abantu ngogibe. USathane uqobo lwakhe uguquliwe, ngokohlelo lwesimanje lwezinto. Uyovela esimweni sengwezi yokukhanya. Ngomsebenzi wokusebenzelana nemimoya, kuyokwenziwa izimangaliso, abagulayo bayophulukiswa, futhi kuyokwenziwa izimanga eziningi ezingenakuphikwa. Futhi njengoba imimoya iyakuzisholo ukukholwa eBhayibhelini, futhi ibonakalise inhlonipho ezikhungweni zebandla, umsebenzi wayo uyokwamukelwa njengokubonakaliswa kwamandla kaNkulunkulu.”

> “The line of distinction between professed Christians and the ungodly is now hardly distinguishable. Church members love what the world loves and are ready to join with them, and Satan determines to unite them in one body and thus strengthen his cause by sweeping all into the ranks of spiritualism. Papists, who boast of miracles as a certain sign of the true church, will be readily deceived by this wonder-working power; and Protestants, having cast away the shield of truth, will also be deluded. Papists, Protestants, and worldlings will alike accept the form of godliness without the power, and they will see in this union a grand movement for the conversion of the world and the ushering in of the long-expected millennium.

> “Umugqa wokwehlukanisa phakathi kwalabo abathi bangamaKristu nabangamesabi uNkulunkulu manje awusabonakali kalula. Amalungu ebandla athanda lokho okuthandwa ngumhlaba futhi akulungele ukuzihlanganisa nawo, futhi uSathane uzimisele ukubahlanganisa babe ngumzimba munye, ngaleyo ndlela aqinise udaba lwakhe ngokukhukhulela bonke emikhakheni yemimoya. AmaPapist, aziqhayisa ngezimangaliso njengophawu oluqinisekileyo lwebandla leqiniso, ayokhohliswa kalula yila mandla enza izimangaliso; kanti namaProthestani, eselahle isihlangu seqiniso, nawo ayodukiswa. AmaPapist, amaProthestani, nabasemhlabeni ngokufanayo bayokwamukela isimo sokumesaba uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwamandla ako, futhi bayobona kulo mzimba omunye inhlangano enkulu yokuphendula umhlaba nokwethulwa kwenkulungwane yeminyaka osekunesikhathi eside ilindelwe.”

> “Through spiritualism, Satan appears as a benefactor of the race, healing the diseases of the people, and professing to present a new and more exalted system of religious faith; but at the same time he works as a destroyer. His temptations are leading multitudes to ruin. Intemperance dethrones reason; sensual indulgence, strife, and bloodshed follow. Satan delights in war, for it excites the worst passions of the soul and then sweeps into eternity its victims steeped in vice and blood. It is his object to incite the nations to war against one another, for he can thus divert the minds of the people from the work of preparation to stand in the day of God.” The Great Controversy, 588, 589.

> “Ngokusebenzisa ukuthakatha kwemimoya, uSathane ubonakala njengomhlomuli wesintu, ephulukisa izifo zabantu, futhi ethi uletha uhlelo olusha noluphakeme ngokwengeziwe lokukholwa kwenkolo; kodwa ngesikhathi esifanayo usebenza njengombhubhisi. Izilingo zakhe ziholela izixuku ekubhujisweni. Ukungazithibi kususa ubukhosi bengqondo; ukuxhaphaza inkanuko yenyama, ukuxabana, nokuchithwa kwegazi kulandela emva kwalokho. USathane uyayithokozela impi, ngoba ivusa izinkanuko ezimbi kakhulu zomphefumulo bese ihudulela ebuphakadeni izisulu zayo zicwile ebubini nasegazini. Inhloso yakhe ukuvusa izizwe ukuba zilwe zodwa zodwa, ngoba ngaleyo ndlela angaphambukisa izingqondo zabantu emsebenzini wokulungiselela ukuma ngosuku lukaNkulunkulu.” The Great Controversy, 588, 589.

Satan appears to accomplish his crowning act, at the Sunday law, not before. It is after the United States speaks as a dragon in verse eleven, in chapter thirteen of Revelation, that in verse thirteen Satan appears to call fire down out of heaven. This is also what Sister White identifies.

USathane ubonakala efeza isenzo sakhe esiyisicoco emthethweni weSonto, hhayi ngaphambi kwalokho. Kungemva kokuba i-United States ikhulume njengodrako evesini leshumi nanye, esahlukweni seshumi nantathu sencwadi yeSambulo, lapho evesini leshumi nantathu uSathane abonakala ebizela umlilo ukuba wehle uvela ezulwini. Lokhu futhi yilokho uDade White akukhombayo.

> “By the decree enforcing the institution of the Papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with Spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.

> “Ngesimemezelo esiphoqelela ukumiswa kobuPapa ngokwephula umthetho kaNkulunkulu, isizwe sethu siyokwehlukana ngokuphelele nokulunga. Lapho ubuProthestani buyolulela isandla saso ngaphesheya kwegebe ukuze bubambe isandla samandla aseRoma, lapho buyofinyelela ngaphesheya kwalasha ukuze buhlanganyele izandla neMimoya, lapho, ngaphansi kwethonya lale nhlangano ephindwe kathathu, izwe lethu liyophika zonke izimiso zoMthethosisekelo walo njengohulumeni wobuProthestani nowombuso wabantu, futhi liyokwenza amalungiselelo okusakazwa kwamanga nobuqili bobuPapa, khona-ke singazi ukuthi isikhathi sesifikile sokusebenza okumangalisayo kukaSathane nokuthi ukuphela sekusondele.” Testimonies, volume 5, 451.

Before the Sunday law, during the testing time of the image of the beast, which is also the sealing time of the one hundred and forty-four thousand, which is also where the effect of every vision occurs, there will be manifested a phenomenon of the dragon power which represents the miracle of false healing. In the book of Revelation, the whore of Babylon is identified as deceiving all the nations.

Ngaphambi komthetho weSonto, ngesikhathi sokuvivinywa somfanekiso wesilo, okuyisikhathi futhi sokubekwa uphawu kwabayiikhulu namashumi amane nane ezinkulungwane, okuyisikhathi futhi lapho umphumela wayo yonke imibono uvela khona, kuyobonakaliswa isenzakalo samandla kadrako esimela isimangaliso sokuphulukisa samanga. Encwadini yeSambulo, isifebe saseBabiloni sikhonjwa njengesikhohlisa zonke izizwe.

> And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. Revelation 18:23.

> Nokukhanya lwesibani alusayikukhanya neze kuwe; nezwi lomyeni nelomlobokazi alisayikuzwakala neze kuwe; ngokuba abathengisi bakho babeyizikhulu zomhlaba; ngokuba ngezangoma zakho zonke izizwe zadukiswa. IsAmbulo 18:23.

The word “sorceries” is the Greek word “pharmakeia” meaning medication, or pharmacy. The word is derived from the Greek word G5332, which means (a drug, that is, spell giving potion); a druggist or pharmacist or poisoner. In the last days leading up to the Sunday law an issue that will contribute to the divisive environment inherited by the eighth and final president, will be the work of the pharmaceutical industry, as represented by Anthony Fauci, and the China virus.

Igama elithi “sorceries” liyigama lesiGreki elithi “pharmakeia” elisho umuthi, noma ikhemisi. Leli gama lisuselwa egameni lesiGreki elithi G5332, elisho (isidakamizwa, okungukuthi, umxube wokuphuza onikeza umthakathi amandla); umthengisi wezidakamizwa noma usokhemisi noma umgibeli wobuthi. Ezinsukwini zokugcina eziholela emthethweni weSonto, indaba ezoba neqhaza ekwakheni isimo sokwehlukana esiyodluliselwa kumongameli wesishiyagalombili nowokugcina, iyoba umsebenzi wemboni yezokwelapha ngemithi, njengoba umelelwe ngu-Anthony Fauci, kanye negciwane laseShayina.

Fauci and China are both representatives of the dragon power, and Fauci’s fingerprints can be traced all the way back to the invention of the HIV virus. Population control as represented by men such as the billionaire Bill Gates, is an attribute which was manifested in Pharaoh’s attempt to wipe out the babies in the time of Moses, and Herod’s efforts to do the same in the time of Christ. Half the population was deceived by the China virus, and you can still see people wearing the masks, which do not prevent any virus.

UFauci neChina bobabili bangabameleli bamandla kadrako, futhi iminwe kaFauci ingalandelwa ibuyele emuva kuze kufike ekusungulweni kwegciwane le-HIV. Ukulawulwa kwabantu, njengoba kumelwe abantu abanjengesigwili uBill Gates, kuyisici esabonakaliswa emzamweni kaFaro wokubhubhisa izinsana ngesikhathi sikaMose, nasemizamweni kaHerode yokwenza okufanayo ngesikhathi sikaKristu. Ingxenye yesigamu sabantu yakhohliswa yigciwane laseChina, futhi kusabonakala abantu abagqoka izifonyo, ezingavimbeli lutho kunoma yiliphi igciwane.

We will continue this study in the next article.

Sizoqhubeka nalesi sifundo esihlokweni esilandelayo.

> “Satan works through the elements also to garner his harvest of unprepared souls. He has studied the secrets of the laboratories of nature, and he uses all his power to control the elements as far as God allows. When he was suffered to afflict Job, how quickly flocks and herds, servants, houses, children, were swept away, one trouble succeeding another as in a moment. It is God that shields His creatures and hedges them in from the power of the destroyer. But the Christian world have shown contempt for the law of Jehovah; and the Lord will do just what He has declared that He would—He will withdraw His blessings from the earth and remove His protecting care from those who are rebelling against His law and teaching and forcing others to do the same. Satan has control of all whom God does not especially guard. He will favor and prosper some in order to further his own designs, and he will bring trouble upon others and lead men to believe that it is God who is afflicting them.

> “USathane futhi usebenza ngezinto zemvelo ukuze abuthele isivuno sakhe semiphefumulo engalungiselelwanga. Uye wafunda izimfihlo zezinqolobane zokuhlola zemvelo, futhi usebenzisa wonke amandla akhe ukulawula izakhi zemvelo ngangokuthi uNkulunkulu evuma. Lapho evunyelwa ukuhlupha uJobe, kwashesha kanjani ukukhukhulwa imihlambi nezinkomo, izinceku, izindlu, nabantwana, inhlupho ilandelana nenye sengathi kungomzuzwana. NguNkulunkulu ovikela izidalwa zaKhe futhi azibiyele emandleni ombhubhisi. Kodwa izwe lobuKristu liye labonisa ukwedelela umthetho kaJehova; futhi iNkosi iyokwenza khona kanye lokho ememezele ukuthi iyokwenza—iyohoxisa izibusiso zaYo emhlabeni futhi isuse ukunakekela kwaYo okuvikelayo kulabo abahlubuka emthethweni waYo nasekufundiseni kwaYo futhi baphoqelela nabanye ukuba benze okufanayo. USathane ulawula bonke labo uNkulunkulu angabagadi ngokukhethekile. Uyokwamukela futhi aphumelelise abanye ukuze aqhubekisele phambili amacebo akhe, futhi uyoletha inhlupho kwabanye, ahole abantu ekukholweni ukuthi nguNkulunkulu obahluphayo.”

> “While appearing to the children of men as a great physician who can heal all their maladies, he will bring disease and disaster, until populous cities are reduced to ruin and desolation. Even now he is at work. In accidents and calamities by sea and by land, in great conflagrations, in fierce tornadoes and terrific hailstorms, in tempests, floods, cyclones, tidal waves, and earthquakes, in every place and in a thousand forms, Satan is exercising his power. He sweeps away the ripening harvest, and famine and distress follow. He imparts to the air a deadly taint, and thousands perish by the pestilence. These visitations are to become more and more frequent and disastrous. Destruction will be upon both man and beast. ‘The earth mourneth and fadeth away,’ ‘the haughty people … do languish. The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.’ Isaiah 24:4, 5.

> “Ebonakala kubantwana babantu njengodokotela omkhulu okwazi ukuphulukisa zonke izifo zabo, uyoletha ukugula nenhlekelele, kuze kube yilapho imizi enabantu abaningi isiphenduke incithakalo nencithakalo enkulu. Namanje usasebenza. Ezingozeni nasezinhlekeleleni olwandle nasemhlabeni, emililweni emikhulu, ezivunguvungwini ezinamandla nasezichotho ezesabekayo, eziphephweni, ezikhukhuleni, ezivunguvungwini ezinamandla, emagagasini amakhulu olwandle, nasekuzamazameni komhlaba, kuzo zonke izindawo nangamafomu ayinkulungwane, uSathane usebenzisa amandla akhe. Ubhubhisa isivuno esesivuthwa, bese kulandela indlala nosizi. Ufafaza emoyeni ubuthi obubulalayo, futhi izinkulungwane zibhubha ngesifo esiwumashayabhuqe. Lezi zijeziso ziyoba zivame ngokwengeziwe futhi zibe zimbi ngokwengeziwe. Ukubhujiswa kuyokwehlela kokubili umuntu nesilwane. ‘Umhlaba uyakhala, uyabuna,’ ‘abantu abazidlayo … bayaphela amandla. Nomhlaba ungcolisiwe ngaphansi kwabakhileyo kuwo; ngoba bephule imithetho, baguqule isimiso, baphule isivumelwano esiphakade.’ Isaya 24:4, 5.”

> “And then the great deceiver will persuade men that those who serve God are causing these evils. The class that have provoked the displeasure of Heaven will charge all their troubles upon those whose obedience to God’s commandments is a perpetual reproof to transgressors. It will be declared that men are offending God by the violation of the Sunday sabbath; that this sin has brought calamities which will not cease until Sunday observance shall be strictly enforced; and that those who present the claims of the fourth commandment, thus destroying reverence for Sunday, are troublers of the people, preventing their restoration to divine favor and temporal prosperity. Thus the accusation urged of old against the servant of God will be repeated and upon grounds equally well established: ‘And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father’s house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and thou hast followed Baalim.’” 1 Kings 18:17, 18. As the wrath of the people shall be excited by false charges, they will pursue a course toward God’s ambassadors very similar to that which apostate Israel pursued toward Elijah.

> “Khona-ke umkhohlisi omkhulu uyakukholisa abantu ukuthi labo abakhonza uNkulunkulu yibona ababangela lobu bubi. Isigaba esivuse ukungathokozi kweZulu siyakubeka zonke izinkathazo zaso phezu kwalabo okulalela kwabo imiyalo kaNkulunkulu kuyisikhuzo esiqhubekayo kwabephula umthetho. Kuyakumenyezelwa ukuthi abantu bayamona uNkulunkulu ngokwephula isabatha leSonto; ukuthi lesi sono silethe izinhlekelele ezingayikuyeka kuze kube yilapho ukugcinwa kweSonto sekuphoqelelwa ngokuqinile; nokuthi labo abethula izimangalo zomthetho wesine, ngaleyo ndlela bechitha ukuhlonishwa kweSonto, bangabaphazamisi babantu, bevimbela ukubuyiselwa kwabo emseni wobuNkulunkulu nasekuchumeni kwezinto zesikhashana. Kanjalo ukumangalelwa okwabekwa endulo encekwini kaNkulunkulu kuyakuphindwa, futhi ngezizathu ezicatshangelwa njengezimiswe kahle ngendlela efanayo: ‘Kwathi u-Ahabi embona u-Eliya, u-Ahabi wathi kuye, Unguwe na lo ohlupha u-Israyeli na? Wasephendula wathi, Angihluphanga u-Israyeli; kodwa wena, nendlu kayihlo, ngokuba nilahlile imiyalo kaJehova, wena walandela oBali.’” 1 AmaKhosi 18:17, 18. Njengoba ulaka lwabantu luyakuvuswa yizinsolo zamanga, bayakuthatha indlela maqondana nezithunywa zikaNkulunkulu efana kakhulu naleyo u-Israyeli oyisihlubuki ayithatha maqondana no-Eliya.

> “The miracle-working power manifested through spiritualism will exert its influence against those who choose to obey God rather than men. Communications from the spirits will declare that God has sent them to convince the rejecters of Sunday of their error, affirming that the laws of the land should be obeyed as the law of God. They will lament the great wickedness in the world and second the testimony of religious teachers that the degraded state of morals is caused by the desecration of Sunday. Great will be the indignation excited against all who refuse to accept their testimony.” The Great Controversy, 589, 590.

> “Amandla okwenza izimangaliso abonakaliswa ngokusebenzisa imimoya ayosebenzisa ithonya lawo ngokumelene nalabo abakhetha ukulalela uNkulunkulu kunabantu. Imiyalezo evela emimoyeni iyomemezela ukuthi uNkulunkulu ubathumile ukuba baqinisekise labo abala iSonto ukuthi bayaphambuka, iqinisa ngokuthi imithetho yezwe kufanele ilalelwe njengomthetho kaNkulunkulu. Bayokhala ngobubi obukhulu obusemhlabeni, basekela nobufakazi babafundisi benkolo bokuthi isimo esehlele phansi sokuziphatha sidalwa ukungcweliswa kweSonto. Kuyoba kukhulu ukuthukuthela okuvuselwa bonke abenqaba ukwamukela ubufakazi babo.” The Great Controversy, 589, 590.
