The key to rightly dividing verses ten through sixteen of Daniel eleven is found in the basic prophetic applications that were employed over thirty years ago, in 1996, when The Time of the End magazine was published. Thirty years later, the Lord has revealed that another prophetic message is to be formalized as was the Millerite message formalized in 1831. In the omega history of these thirty years the message to be formalized is represented as a correction of a previous message of Islam, as represented by Josiah Litch and also a corrected message of the closed door, as represented by Samuel Snow, which is the symbol of the parable of the ten virgins. A message of Islam, accompanied with a warning of the progressive closing doors of probation as Christ finishes His work of judgment will be proclaimed. The message is twofold, possessing and internal and external line, which in turn represent the first two steps of the three-step testing process that always occurs when a prophecy is unsealed, as was the revelation of Jesus Christ on December 31, 2023.

Isihluthulelo sokuhlukanisa ngokufaneleyo amavesi eshumi kuya kweleshumi nesithupha kaDaniyeli ishumi nanye sitholakala ekusetshenzisweni okuyisisekelo okungokwesiprofetho okwasetshenziswa eminyakeni engaphezu kwamashumi amathathu edlule, ngo-1996, lapho kushicilelwa umagazini othi The Time of the End. Eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu kamuva, iNkosi yembulile ukuthi omunye umyalezo wesiprofetho kufanele uhlelwe ngokusemthethweni njengoba umyalezo wamaMillerite wahlelwa ngokusemthethweni ngo-1831. Emlandweni we-omega wale minyaka engamashumi amathathu, umyalezo okufanele uhlelwe ngokusemthethweni umelelwa njengokulungiswa komyalezo wangaphambili we-Islam, njengoba kumelwe uJosiah Litch, futhi futhi njengomyalezo olungisiwe womnyango ovaliwe, njengoba kumelwe uSamuel Snow, okuyisifanekiselo somfanekiso wezintombi eziyishumi. Kuzomenyezelwa umyalezo we-Islam ohambisana nesixwayiso seminyango yokuvaleka okuqhubekayo kwesikhathi somusa njengoba uKristu eqedela umsebenzi waKhe wokwahlulela. Umyalezo uyizingxenye ezimbili, unezintambo zangaphakathi nezangaphandle, zona ezimelela izinyathelo ezimbili zokuqala zenqubo yokuvivinya enezinyathelo ezintathu ehlala yenzeka lapho isiprofetho sembulwa, njengoba kwaba yisambulo sikaJesu Kristu ngoDisemba 31, 2023.

The Time of the End magazine contains the basic overview of the future for America as represented in the last six verses of Daniel eleven which were unsealed at the time of the end in 1989. The magazine has been in the public record for thirty years and no one saw that a main theme of the magazine was the religious struggle between communism and the churches under the influence of Catholicism, especially in the Ukraine. That religious battle from the period of 1989, explains the context of the religious demise of Putin as represented by Ptolemy and Uzziah in the rebellion they both manifested at the temple in Jerusalem. The temple in Jerusalem was Uzziah’s temple, not Ptolemy’s temple. Both Putin and Zelenskyy desecrate the same temple in two different ways; one as an Egyptian and one as a Jew.

Umagazini othi The Time of the End uqukethe isifinyezo esiyisisekelo sekusasa leMelika njengoba limelwe emavesini ayisithupha okugcina kaDaniyeli ishumi nanye, avulwa uphawu ngesikhathi sokuphela ngo-1989. Lo magazini ube semlandweni womphakathi iminyaka engamashumi amathathu, kodwa akekho owabona ukuthi ingqikithi enkulu yawo kwakuwumzabalazo wenkolo phakathi kobukhomanisi namabandla angaphansi kwethonya lobuKatolika, ikakhulukazi e-Ukraine. Leyo mpi yenkolo, evela esikhathini sika-1989, ichaza umongo wokuwa kwenkolo kukaPutin njengoba emelwe nguPtolemy no-Uziya ekuhlubukeni abakubonakalisa bobabili ethempelini laseJerusalema. Ithempeli laseJerusalema laliyithempeli lika-Uziya, hhayi ithempeli likaPtolemy. Bobabili uPutin noZelenskyy bangcolisa ithempeli elifanayo ngezindlela ezimbili ezehlukene; omunye njengomGibhithe, nomunye njengomJuda.

The church that was struggling against the king of the south in 1989 was the Catholic church. And why not? Atheism of France delivered the deadly wound to the king of the north in 1798, so why wouldn’t the papacy retaliate against atheism’s long-drawn-out persecution of the Catholic church, especially in the Ukraine? More significant is that this clear testimony about the Ukraine came from a publication in 1996, that was citing the secular historians about the history of 1989. Now that the Lord is unsealing the hidden history of verse forty, He has pointed to the struggle between two orthodox churches to provide the prophetic and historical context of the battle of Raphia and its aftermath, and He had already included the necessary insights in The Time of the End magazine that was published thirty years ago.

Ibandla elalilwa nenkosi yaseningizimu ngonyaka ka-1989 kwakuyibandla lamaKatolika. Futhi kungani kungenjalo? Ukungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu kwaseFrance kwaletha inxeba elibulalayo enkosini yasenyakatho ngonyaka ka-1798, ngakho kungani ubupapa bungaphindiseli ukushushiswa okude nokudonsela phansi kokungakholelwa kuNkulunkulu ebandleni lamaKatolika, ikakhulukazi e-Ukraine? Okubaluleke kakhulu yilokhu ukuthi lobu bufakazi obucacile nge-Ukraine bavela encwadini enyathelisiwe ngo-1996, eyayicaphuna izazi-mlando zezwe ngomlando ka-1989. Manje njengoba iNkosi isivula umlando ofihlekile wevesi lamashumi amane, Ikhombe emzabalazweni phakathi kwamabandla amabili ama-Orthodox ukuze inikeze umongo wesiprofetho nowomlando wempi yaseRaphia nemiphumela yayo eyalandela, futhi Yayisivele ifake ukuqonda okudingekayo ephephabhukwini elithi The Time of the End elanyatheliswa eminyakeni engamashumi amathathu edlule.

The demise of Napoleon aligns with the progressive demise of Lenin, Stalin and the system of the Soviet Union. When the prophetic southern kingdom moved its capital to Russia there were two major revolutions in 1917. The first is what is called the Russian revolution when the Czar was overthrown, and then in the same year the Bolshevik Revolution followed, which led to the civil war of 1917 unto 1922. In 1922 the Soviet Union was formed.

Ukubhujiswa kukaNapoleon kuhambisana nokubhujiswa okuqhubekayo kukaLenin, kukaStalin, kanye nohlelo lweSoviet Union. Lapho umbuso waseningizimu ongokwesiprofetho uthuthela inhloko-dolobha yawo eRussia, kwaba nezinguquko ezimbili ezinkulu ngo-1917. Esokuqala yilokho okubizwa ngokuthi uguquko lwaseRussia lapho iTsar ichithwa, kwase kuthi ngalowo nyaka ofanayo kwalandela Uguquko lwamaBolshevik, olwaholela empini yombango kusukela ngo-1917 kuze kube ngu-1922. Ngo-1922 kwase kusungulwa iSoviet Union.

The beginning of Russia as the spiritual king of the south represented a two-step revolution that led to civil war, then the formation of a confederacy of countries. The collapse of the Soviet Union was also two steps, beginning with the tearing down of the Berlin wall on November 9, 1989, which then led to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 31, 1991. As the last ruler of Russia, the king of the south, Vladimir Putin was typified by the first Russian ruler—Vladimir Lenin.

Ukuqala kweRussia njengenkosi yaseningizimu ngokomoya kwamelela uguquko olunezinyathelo ezimbili olwaholela empini yombango, lwase lulandelwa ukwakheka komfelandawonye wamazwe. Ukuwa kweSoviet Union nakho kwakuyinqubo enezinyathelo ezimbili, kuqala ngokudilizwa kodonga lwaseBerlin ngo-November 9, 1989, okwase kuholela ekuhlakazweni kweSoviet Union ngo-December 31, 1991. Njengombusi wokugcina waseRussia, inkosi yaseningizimu, uVladimir Putin wayefanekiswa ngumbusi wokuqala waseRussia—uVladimir Lenin.

Vladimir means “a great leader” and Putin means “the path.” Lenin means “a great river,” but Vladimir Lenin chose the name of Lenin to hide his real name, which was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov. Ilyich means “son of Elijah,” and Ulyanov means “youthful son of Elijah.”

UVladimir usho ukuthi “umholi omkhulu,” kanti uPutin usho ukuthi “indlela.” ULenin usho ukuthi “umfula omkhulu,” kodwa uVladimir Lenin wakhetha igama elithi Lenin ukuze afihle igama lakhe langempela, elalinguVladimir Ilyich Ulyanov. UIlyich usho ukuthi “indodana ka-Eliya,” kanti uUlyanov usho ukuthi “indodana ka-Eliya eseyinsizwa.”

The great Russian leader on the path, in the history represented by the battle of Raphia in 217 BC, was typified by the first leader of Russia, who as Vladimir Lenin was the great leader of the mighty river, but who hid his name. A name is a symbol of character, and for Vladimir to hide his two names represents a character that chose a great river of political thought, over a character represented by Elijah, which means “God is Jehovah.” The root of atheism is the denial of God, and atheism is a prime characteristic of the king of the south. The second and third given name of Lenin emphasize Elijah and his son, and the end of Russia as the king of the south is represented by Ptolemy IV, who was victorious at the battle of Raphia, but when Antiochus returned in 200 BC at the battle of Panium Ptolemy’s five-year-old son was then ruling. Lenin’s two original names identify Elijah and his son, and align with Ptolemy and his son. Elijah and the message to his children occurs in the latter days, just before “the great and dreadful day of the Lord;” which is where the battles of Raphia and Panium are also located.

Umholi omkhulu waseRussia endleleni, emlandweni omelwe yimpi yaseRaphia ngo-217 BC, wafanekiswa ngumholi wokuqala waseRussia, lowo owayenguVladimir Lenin njengomholi omkhulu womfula omkhulu, kodwa owafihla igama lakhe. Igama liwuphawu lwesimilo, futhi ukuthi uVladimir afihle amagama akhe amabili kumele isimilo esakhetha umfula omkhulu womcabango wezombusazwe, kunesimilo esimelwe ngu-Elija, okusho ukuthi “uNkulunkulu unguJehova.” Impande yokungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu iwukumphika uNkulunkulu, futhi ukungakholelwa ebukhoneni bukaNkulunkulu kuyisici esiyinhloko senkosi yaseningizimu. Igama lesibili nelesithathu likaLenin alinikwa ekuzalweni agcizelela u-Elija nendodana yakhe, futhi ukuphela kweRussia njengenkosi yaseningizimu kumelwe nguPtolemy IV, owanqoba empini yaseRaphia, kodwa lapho u-Antiochus ebuya ngo-200 BC empini yasePanium, indodana kaPtolemy eneminyaka emihlanu yayisibusa ngaleso sikhathi. Amagama amabili okuqala kaLenin akhomba u-Elija nendodana yakhe, futhi ahambisana noPtolemy nendodana yakhe. U-Elija nomyalezo kubantwana bakhe kuvela ezinsukwini zokugcina, ngaphambi nje “kosuku olukhulu nolwesabekayo lweNkosi;” okuyilapho futhi izimpi zaseRaphia nePanium zitholakala khona.

> Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4:5, 6.

> Bhekani, ngiyakunithumela u-Eliya umprofethi, lungakafiki usuku olukhulu nolwesabekayo lweNkosi; futhi uyophendulela izinhliziyo zawoyise kubantwana, nezinhliziyo zabantwana koyise, funa ngifike ngishaye umhlaba ngesiqalekiso. Malaki 4:5, 6.

The testimony of Uzziah and Ptolemy align in verse eleven of Daniel eleven, and Uzziah lived for eleven years after his rebellion and leprosy; whereas, Ptolemy ruled for a total of seventeen years, which is the same number of years between the battles of verse eleven and verse fifteen. The 250-year prophecy that began in 457 BC, ended in 207 BC in the middle of those two battles; ten years after Raphia and seven before Panium. Ptolemy IV’s reign began in 221 BC, and he died in 204 BC, so the seventeen years of Ptolemy are not the same line as the seventeen years from Raphia to Panium. Nor are they the same seventeen years that are represented by the conclusion of the 250-year prophecy beginning with Nero in 64 and ending in 313. From 313 to the first Sunday law in 321 is eight years, and nine years later in 330 Constantine divided the kingdom into east and west.

Ubufakazi buka-Uziya noPtolemy buhambisana evesini leshumi nanye likaDaniyeli ishumi nanye, futhi u-Uziya waphila iminyaka eyishumi nanye emva kokuvukela kwakhe nokuba nesifo sochoko; kanti uPtolemy wabusa iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa iyonke, okuyiyona kanye inani leminyaka eliphakathi kwezimpi zevesi leshumi nanye nevesi leshumi nanhlanu. Isiprofetho seminyaka engama-250 esaqala ngo-457 BC, saphela ngo-207 BC phakathi kwalezo zimpi ezimbili; iminyaka eyishumi emva kweRaphia neminyaka eyisikhombisa ngaphambi kwePanium. Ukubusa kukaPtolemy IV kwaqala ngo-221 BC, futhi washona ngo-204 BC, ngakho-ke iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa kaPtolemy ayiyona umugqa ofanayo neminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa esukela eRaphia iye ePanium. Futhi akuyona yona leyo minyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa efanekiselwa ukuphetha kwesiprofetho seminyaka engama-250 esiqala ngoNero ngo-64 siphele ngo-313. Kusukela ku-313 kuya emthethweni wokuqala weSonto ngeSonto ngo-321 kuyiminyaka eyisishiyagalombili, futhi eminyakeni eyisishiyagalolunye kamuva ngo-330 uConstantine wahlukanisa umbuso waba impumalanga nentshonalanga.

In the very near future Putin and Russia will defeat Ukraine and the footsteps of Ptolemy and Uzziah will begin to repeat in the history represented by verse twelve. The two biblical witnesses place the final crisis for Putin in a church and state crisis. Their rebellion was manifested at the temple in Jerusalem, thus identifying Uzziah’s temple and religion as the point of prophetic reference.

Esikhathini esiseduze kakhulu uPutin neRussia bazoyinqoba i-Ukraine, futhi izinyathelo zikaPtolemy no-Uziya zizoqala ukuphindaphinda emlandweni omelelwe yivesi leshumi nambili. Ofakazi ababili beBhayibheli babeka inhlekelele yokugcina kaPutin enkingeni yebandla nombuso. Ukuhlubuka kwabo kwabonakaliswa ethempelini eJerusalema, ngaleyo ndlela kukhonjiswa ithempeli lika-Uziya nenkolo yakhe njengendawo okuyiyona yokuqondiswa kwesiprofetho.

Zelenskyy, which means “green,” is the puppet of the globalist bureaucrats of the European Union and the United Nations, whose globalist agenda is aptly represented by the green political movement that worships mother earth. It is fitting that Zelenskyy was an actor, for he is clearly a proxy of other powers, and his name meaning “green” identifies the political philosophy that guides his movements on the chess board of human history. Checkmate is right around the corner for Zelenskyy.

UZelenskyy, okusho ukuthi “oluhlaza,” uyisigcilikisha sabaphathi bezokuphatha bomhlaba wonke be-European Union ne-United Nations, abanenhloso yabo yobumhlaba wonke emeleka ngokufanele yinhlangano yezepolitiki eluhlaza ekhulekela umhlaba ongumama. Kuyafaneleka ukuthi uZelenskyy wayengumlingisi, ngoba ngokusobala ungummeleli wamanye amandla, futhi incazelo yegama lakhe ethi “oluhlaza” iveza ifilosofi yezepolitiki eqondisa ukunyakaza kwakhe ebhodini lomdlalo wechess lomlando wesintu. Ukumiswa kwenkosi sekuseduze kakhulu kuZelenskyy.

In this final history the rebellion of Uzziah and Ptolemy will once again be acted out, but Ptolemy (Putin) died four years before the battle of Panium, and the last ruler of the king of the south is represented by a five-year-old child who is being handled by a series of corrupt and incompetent regents.

Kule mlando wokugcina, ukuhlubuka kuka-Uziya noPtolemy kuyophindwa kwenziwe futhi; kodwa uPtolemy (uPutin) wafa eminyakeni emine ngaphambi kwempi yasePanium, futhi umbusi wokugcina wenkosi yaseningizimu umelelwa ngumntwana oneminyaka emihlanu ubudala, ophethwe uchungechunge lwababusi abamele okwesikhashana abonakele nabangenamakhono.

Ptolemy V was only about 5–6 years old when he ascended the throne in 204 BC (after his father’s mysterious death), and the Ptolemaic kingdom was paralyzed by a series of incompetent or corrupt regencies during his reign. The initial regency was from 204–202 BC, after Ptolemy IV’s death was concealed and his mother Arsinoe III murdered. The court favorites Sosibius, a longtime minister under Ptolemy IV, and Agathocles the brother of Ptolemy IV’s mistress Agathoclea, declared themselves regents. They forged or presented a will making them guardians, placed the young king under the care of Agathoclea and her family, and purged potential rivals. Sosibius handled much of the early administration.

UPtolemy V wayeneminyaka ecishe ibe ngu-5–6 kuphela lapho enyukela esihlalweni sobukhosi ngo-204 BC (ngemva kokufa kukayise okuyimfihlakalo), futhi umbuso wakwaPtolemy wakhubazeka ngenxa yochungechunge lwabaphathi bobubusi besikhashana abangakwazi lutho noma abonakele phakathi nokubusa kwakhe. Ububusi besikhashana bokuqala babusukela ku-204–202 BC, ngemva kokuba ukufa kukaPtolemy IV kufihlwe nokuthi unina u-Arsinoe III abulawe. Izintandokazi zasesigodlweni, uSosibius, owayekade eyisikhulu sikahulumeni isikhathi eside ngaphansi kukaPtolemy IV, kanye no-Agathocles umfowabo ka-Agathoclea, incekukazi kaPtolemy IV, bazimemezela njengababusi besikhashana. Baqamba noma bethula incwadi yefa eyayibenza abaqaphi, babeka inkosi encane ngaphansi kokunakekelwa kuka-Agathoclea nomndeni wakubo, base besusa bonke ababengase babe yizimbangi. USosibius waphatha ingxenye enkulu yokuphathwa kombuso ekuqaleni.

A shift occurred around 202 BC, when Agathocles became the dominant regent, but was widely hated for debauchery and mismanagement. A popular uprising in Alexandria led to his brutal lynching by a mob, with the boy-king nominally approving. Subsequent regents were Tlepolemus the governor of Pelusium, and then Aristomenes. By the time of the battle of Panium in 200 BC, the kingdom was under this rotating series of regents and court advisors.

Kwaba khona ushintsho cishe ngonyaka ka-202 BC, lapho u-Agathocles eba yibamba elibusayo elinamandla kunawo wonke, kodwa wayezondwa kakhulu ngenxa yokuziphatha kwakhe okonakele nokuphathwa kabi kwezindaba zombuso. Ukuvukela kwabantu e-Alexandria kwaholela ekubulaweni kwakhe ngesihluku yisixuku, inkosi esencane ikuvuma ngokwegama nje. Ababambe ubukhosi abalandelayo kwakungu-Tlepolemus, umbusi wasePelusium, kwase kuba ngu-Aristomenes. Ngesikhathi sempi yasePanium ngo-200 BC, umbuso wawungaphansi kwalolu chungechunge olushintshanayo lwababambela ubukhosi nabeluleki benkantolo.

At the battle of Panium the Ptolemaic forces were led in the field by the general Scopas of Aetolia, a mercenary commander appointed under the regency, not by Ptolemy V himself. The young king had no real control—the decisions, military strategy, and kingdom’s overall weakness stemmed from the regents’ paralysis, internal revolts (like the native Egyptian uprisings), and court intrigue. This instability allowed Antiochus III the Great to decisively defeat Scopas at Panium, seizing Coele-Syria, including Judea permanently from Ptolemaic control.

Empini yasePanium amabutho amaPtolemy aholwa enkundleni yimphathi-jikelele uScopas wase-Aetolia, umkhuzi wamabutho aqashwayo owayeqokwe ngaphansi kombuso wababheki, hhayi nguPtolemy V uqobo. Inkosi esemncane yayinganalo igunya langempela—izinqumo, isu lempi, nobuthakathaka bombuso jikelele kwakuphuma ekungasebenzi kwababheki, ezivukelweni zangaphakathi (njengokuvukela kwabomdabu baseGibhithe), nasezingxabanweni zesigodlo. Lokhu kungazinzi kwavumela u-Antiochus III Omkhulu ukuba anqobe uScopas ngokunqamulajuqu ePanium, athumbe iCoele-Syria, kuhlanganise neJudiya, unomphela ekulawulweni kwamaPtolemy.

Historians discuss the probability that Ptolemy IV’s death was by poisoning, which is also part of the historical speculation concerning Vladimir Lenin, Joseph Stalin, as well as the queen of the south, Cleopatra. Putin prevails in the Ukrainian War, but then his demise begins with his desire to implement the controlling relationship that the Soviet Union formerly had with the Ukrainian church, which when removed in 1989, was the symbol of the victory of the king of the north over the king of the south.

Izazi-mlando zixoxa ngamathuba okuthi ukufa kukaPtolemy IV kwabangelwa ubuthi, okuyingxenye futhi yokuqagela komlando okuphathelene noVladimir Lenin, uJoseph Stalin, kanye nendlovukazi yaseningizimu, uCleopatra. UPutin uyanqoba eMpini yase-Ukraine, kodwa-ke ukubhujiswa kwakhe kuqala ngesifiso sakhe sokumisa ubudlelwane bokulawula obake baba khona phakathi kweSoviet Union nesonto lase-Ukraine, okwathi lapho bususwa ngo-1989, kwaba uphawu lokunqoba kwenkosi yasenyakatho phezu kwenkosi yaseningizimu.

The Ukraine is the cradle of Eastern Slavic Orthodoxy. The baptism of Vladimir the Great took place in 988 in Kyiv. Moscow later claimed the title “Third Rome” after Constantinople fell, positioning itself as the rightful heir and spiritual guardian of all Russian lands, including the Ukraine as its “canonical territory”.

I-Ukraine iyisizinda sobu-Orthodox baseMpumalanga yamaSlav. Ubhapathizo lukaVladimir Omkhulu lwenzeka ngo-988 eKyiv. Kamuva iMoscow yazibiza ngesiqu esithi “iRoma Yesithathu” ngemva kokuwa kweConstantinople, izibeka njengendlalifa efanele nomlondolozi womoya wamazwe wonke amaRashiya, kuhlanganise ne-Ukraine njengendawo yayo “engaphansi kwegunya layo lecanon”.

The Moscow Patriarchate has always viewed Ukraine as spiritually inseparable from Russia with the motto of “One people, one faith,” which is a phrase Putin himself has repeatedly used. Ukraine, especially since 2014/2022, increasingly sees Moscow’s oversight as colonial and imperial domination rather than true spiritual motherhood. As of February 2026, there are two competing Orthodox structures. One is the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, which since 2019 has been independent from Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople. In Kyiv the Orthodox Church of Ukraine is considered as the truly national church.

I-Patriarchate yaseMoscow ibilokhu njalo ibheka i-Ukraine njengengahlukaniseki noRussia ngokomoya, ngesiqubulo esithi “Abantu abodwa, ukholo olulodwa,” okuyinkulumo uPutin ngokwakhe ayisebenzise kaningi. I-Ukraine, ikakhulukazi kusukela ngo-2014/2022, iya ngokuya ibona ukwenganyelwa kweMoscow njengokubuswa kobukoloni nobombuso kunokuba kube ububele bangempela bobumama bokomoya. Kusukela ngoFebhuwari 2026, kunezinhlaka ezimbili ezincintisanayo zobu-Orthodox. Enye yiSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine, okuthe kusukela ngo-2019 lazimela ku-Patriarch Womhlaba Wonke uBartholomew waseConstantinople. EKyiv iSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine libhekwa njengebandla lesizwe langempela.

Reader beware: the Orthodox Church of Ukraine is a different church than the Ukrainian Orthodox church. The Ukrainian Orthodox church is connected with Russia’s orthodox church, and for this reason Zelenskyy has been attacking it. The Vatican opposes the attacks of Zelenskyy that are already underway, but Putin’s rebellion of verse twelve follows his victory at Raphia, and is yet future.

Umfundi makaqaphele: iBandla Lama-Orthodox lase-Ukraine liyibandla elihlukile kuneBandla Lama-Orthodox lase-Ukraine. IBandla Lama-Orthodox lase-Ukraine lixhumene neBandla Lama-Orthodox laseRussia, futhi ngenxa yalesi sizathu uZelenskyy ubelokhu elihlasela. IVatican iyakuphikisa ukuhlasela kukaZelenskyy osekuvele kuqalile, kodwa ukuhlubuka kukaPutin kwevesi leshumi nambili kulandela ukunqoba kwakhe eRaphia, futhi kusekusasa.

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church was historically linked to the Moscow body. In the aftermath of the invasion of 2022, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church declared full autonomy in May 2022, but Ukrainian state investigations (DESS) have repeatedly argued it remains canonically and legally affiliated with Moscow. Ukraine passed a law in August 2024 (signed by Zelenskyy) banning any religious body tied to the Russian Orthodox Church (the “aggressor state”). The Ukrainian Orthodox Church has been ordered to fully sever ties or face court-ordered dissolution of its Kyiv Metropolis. As of late 2025 and early 2026, there are ongoing raids, parish transfers to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (over 1,300 since 2022), court cases, and UN experts warning of religious-freedom concerns regarding the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.

ISonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine ngokomlando lalixhumene nenhlangano yaseMoscow. Ngemva kokuhlasela kuka-2022, iSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine lamemezela ukuzimela okuphelele ngoMeyi 2022, kodwa uphenyo lukahulumeni wase-Ukraine (DESS) luye lwaphikisa kaningi ngokuthi lisahleli lixhumene neMoscow ngokwecanon nangokomthetho. I-Ukraine yaphasisa umthetho ngo-Agasti 2024 (osayinwe nguZelenskyy) ovimbela noma iyiphi inhlangano yenkolo exhunywe neSonto Lobu-Orthodox laseRussia (umbuso “ongumhlaseli”). ISonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine liyalelwe ukuba linqamule ngokuphelele ubudlelwane noma libhekane nokuchithwa kweKyiv Metropolis yalo ngokuyalelwa yinkantolo. Kusukela ngasekupheleni kuka-2025 nasekuqaleni kuka-2026, kusaqhubeka ukuhlasela nokuseshwa, ukudluliselwa kwamapharishi eSontweni Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine (angaphezu kuka-1,300 kusukela ngo-2022), amacala ezinkantolo, kanye nochwepheshe be-UN abaxwayisa ngokukhathazeka ngenkululeko yenkolo maqondana neSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine.

The Vatican has publicly opposed any forced dissolution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Russia and Putin frame this as outright persecution of canonical Orthodoxy and have made protection of the “Russian Orthodox churches” an explicit demand in any peace negotiations. Russian propaganda consistently ties the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian state attacks upon it as “Nazism” and as part of their “denazification” justification.

IVatican iphikise obala noma yikuphi ukuqedwa ngenkani kweSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine. IRussia noPutin bakubeka lokhu njengokushushiswa okusobala kobu-Orthodox obusemthethweni, futhi benze ukuvikelwa “kwamasonto obu-Orthodox aseRussia” kwaba yisidingo esishiwo ngokucacile kunoma yiziphi izingxoxo zokuthula. Inkulumo-ze yaseRussia iqhubeka njalo ixhumanisa iSonto Lobu-Orthodox lase-Ukraine kanye nokuhlasela kombuso wase-Ukraine phezu kwalo “nobuNazi” futhi njengengxenye yesizathu sabo “sokususa ubuNazi.”

Putin will presumptuously “enter the temple” and claim full spiritual dominion over Ukrainian Orthodoxy in attempt to re-subordinate the entire Ukrainian church structure under Moscow, demanding recognition as the rightful spiritual head of the Russian orthodox world.

UPutin uyongena “ethempelini” ngokuzikhukhumeza, futhi afune ukubusa ngokugcwele ngokomoya phezu kobu-Orthodoxy base-Ukraine, emzamweni wokuphinde abuyisele lonke uhlelo lwesonto lase-Ukraine ngaphansi kweMoscow, efuna ukuqashelwa njengenhloko efanele ngokomoya yomhlaba wobu-Orthodoxy baseRussia.

This is the exact parallel to Ptolemy entering the Most Holy Place, while Uzziah is Zelenskyy seeking to burn incense. Ptolemy’s rebellion was in the Most Holy Place and Uzziah’s was in the holy place. A southern king, flushed with the victory of the “borderline,” ending the proxy-power of Nazism, and then overstepping into the place that belongs only to the realm of religion. Then will come a sudden providential humbling, and Putin will disappear from the scene (as Ptolemy IV died in 204 BC). After the power vacuum of a ‘weak-successors phase,’ the northern king returns with greater force and prevails at the modern battle of Panium in verse 15.

Lokhu kuyafana ncamashi nokungena kukaPtolemy eNdaweni eNgcwelengcwele, kuyilapho u-Uziya enguZelenskyy ofuna ukushisa impepho. Ukuvukela kukaPtolemy kwakuseNdaweni eNgcwelengcwele, kanti okuka-Uziya kwakusendaweni engcwele. Inkosi yaseningizimu, igcwele injabulo yokunqoba “umngcele,” iqede amandla obunxusa obuNazi, bese yeqa ingene endaweni engokomkhakha wenkolo kuphela. Khona-ke kuyofika ukuthotshiswa okungazelelwe kokuhlinzeka kukaNkulunkulu, futhi uPutin uyonyamalala enkundleni yesigameko (njengoba uPtolemy IV afa ngo-204 BC). Emva kwesikhala samandla sesigaba ‘sabalandeli ababuthakathaka,’ inkosi yasenyakatho iyabuya ngamandla amakhulu futhi inqobe empini yesimanje yasePanium evesini 15.

## Seventeen

Ishumi nesikhombisa

Seventeen years occurs three times in the history where the battles of Raphia and Panium merge together, line upon line. The seventeen years from the edict of Milan where the eastern and western thrones of the empire were brought together through marriage, until the kingdom was divided and divorced in 330. The seventeen years beginning and ending are waymarks of two other related prophetic periods. Beginning with Nero in the year 64 a period of persecution is marked that ended in the history of Constantine the Great. The transition from Nero’s period of persecution unto the compromise represented by Constantine identifies the transition from the church of Smyrna unto the church of Pergamos. 313 and the edict of Milan identify the end of the church of Smyrna, and the end of the seventeen-year period is the year 330, which was the fulfillment of the three-hundred-and-sixty-year prophecy of Daniel 11:24.

Iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa ivela kathathu emlandweni lapho izimpi zaseRaphia nasePanium zihlangana ndawonye, umugqa phezu komugqa. Iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa kusukela emyalezweni waseMilan lapho izihlalo zobukhosi basempumalanga nasentshonalanga zombuso zahlanganiswa ndawonye ngomshado, kwaze kwaba yilapho umbuso wehlukaniswa futhi wahlukaniswa ngesehlukaniso ngo-330. Iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa ekuqaleni nasekupheleni iyizimpawu zendlela zezikhathi ezimbili ezihlobene zesiprofetho. Iqala ngoNero ngonyaka ka-64, kuphawulwa isikhathi sokushushiswa esaphela emlandweni kaConstantine Omkhulu. Ukuguquka kusuka esikhathini sokushushiswa sikaNero kuya ekuyekethiseni okumelwe nguConstantine kukhomba ukuguquka kusuka ebandleni laseSmirna kuya ebandleni lasePergamu. U-313 nomyalezo waseMilan kukhomba ukuphela kwebandla laseSmirna, futhi ukuphela kwaleso sikhathi seminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa kungunyaka ka-330, okwakungukugcwaliseka kwesiprofetho seminyaka engamakhulu amathathu namashumi ayisithupha sikaDaniyeli 11:24.

> He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time. Daniel 11:24.

> Uyongena ngokuthula ngisho nasezindaweni ezicebe kakhulu zesifundazwe; enze lokho oyise abangakwenzanga, noyisemkhulu abangakwenzanga; ahlakaze phakathi kwabo impango, nokwebiwe, nengcebo; yebo, aqambe amacebo akhe okulwa nezinqaba eziqinileyo, kuze kube yisikhathi. Daniyeli 11:24.

The seventeen years from 313 and the edict of Milan, begins with a fulfillment of prophecy and ends at the fulfillment of another prophecy. The first prophetic fulfillment which marks the beginning, identifies the transition from the church of Smyrna unto the church of Pergamos, and the prophecy that marks the end of those seventeen years, identifies the division of Rome into eastern and western Rome. The seventeen years is identified by prophetic history, not by any specific seventeen-year proclamation. The alpha of the division of the second church from the third church aligned with the division of the empire into east and west at the fulfillment of the time prophecy of 360 years. Those two prophecies establish a period of seventeen years, and they need to be established as a legitimate prophetic period based upon the witness of two or three; if seventeen is a valid prophetic symbol.

Iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa kusukela ku-313 kanye nomthetho waseMilan, iqala ngokugcwaliseka kwesiprofetho futhi iphela ekugcwalisekeni kwesinye isiprofetho. Ukugcwaliseka kokuqala kwesiprofetho okuphawula isiqalo, kukhomba uguquko olusuka ebandleni laseSmirna luye ebandleni lasePergamosi, futhi isiprofetho esiphawula ukuphela kwaleyo minyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa, sikhomba ukuhlukaniswa kweRoma yaba yiRoma yasempumalanga neRoma yasentshonalanga. Leyo minyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa ikhonjiswa ngomlando wesiprofetho, hhayi nganoma yisiphi isimemezelo esiqondile seminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa. I-alpha yokuhlukaniswa kwebandla lesibili nebandla lesithathu yahambisana nokuhlukaniswa kombuso waba impumalanga nentshonalanga ekugcwalisekeni kwesiprofetho sesikhathi seminyaka engu-360. Lezo ziprofetho ezimbili zisungula inkathi yeminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa, futhi kudingeka zisungulwe njengenkathi yesiprofetho esemthethweni ngokusekelwa ngofakazi ababili noma abathathu; uma ulishumi nesikhombisa luwuphawu lwesiprofetho olusemthethweni.

Those witnesses exist in another 250-year period which began in 457 BC. On that date the 2,300-year prophecy of Daniel 8:14 began. 457 BC is a prophetic starting point, and an established prophetic waymark. Extending 250 years into the future brings you to 207 BC, which is the history between the battles of Raphia and Panium. The battle of Raphia and Panium cannot be separated, for they are both engaged in by Antiochus the Great. From the battle of Raphia in 217 BC unto the battle of Panium in 200 BC is seventeen years. The 2,300-year prophecy identifies a change of dispensation at the beginning, when the third decree restored Judah’s national sovereignty and then at the ending there was a change of dispensation when Christ moved from the holy place to the Most Holy Place. 207 BC represents the change of dispensation of Egyptian rule over Judea, unto the Seleucid dispensation of rule over the glorious land. The dispensation of Seleucid control over the glorious land produced the revolt of the Maccabees in 167 BC.

Labo fakazi bakhona kwesinye isikhathi seminyaka engu-250 esaqala ngo-457 BC. Ngalolo suku kwaqala isiprofetho seminyaka engu-2,300 sikaDaniyeli 8:14. U-457 BC uyisiqalo sesiprofetho, futhi uyisibonakaliso sesiprofetho esimisiwe. Ukwelula iminyaka engu-250 iye esikhathini esizayo kukuyisa ku-207 BC, okuwumlando ophakathi kwezimpi zaseRafiya nePaniumu. Impi yaseRafiya nePaniumu ayinakuhlukaniswa, ngokuba zombili zahlanganyelwa u-Antiyokusi Omkhulu. Kusukela empini yaseRafiya ngo-217 BC kuze kufike empini yasePaniumu ngo-200 BC kuyiminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa. Isiprofetho seminyaka engu-2,300 siveza ukuguquka kwesikhathi sokuphatha ekuqaleni, lapho umyalo wesithathu wabuyisela ubukhosi besizwe sakwaJuda, bese ekugcineni kwaba khona ukuguquka kwesikhathi sokuphatha lapho uKristu esuka endaweni engcwele waya eNdaweni Engcwelengcwele Kakhulu. U-207 BC umele ukuguquka kwesikhathi sokubusa kweGibhithe phezu kweJudiya, kuye esikhathini sokubusa samaSeleukusi phezu kwezwe elikhazimulayo. Isikhathi sokuphatha sokulawula kwamaSeleukusi phezu kwezwe elikhazimulayo saveza ukuvukela kwamaMakkabi ngo-167 BC.

The Nero period of 250 years ends with the history of Constantine the GREAT and the 250 years that conclude between the two battles is the history of Antiochus the GREAT. At the battle of Raphia, Ptolemy IV defeated Antiochus the Great and Ptolemy reigned for seventeen years. Both 250-year periods contain a distinct seventeen-year period. Both end in the history of a ruler who is known as the GREAT. Both 250-year periods begin at an established prophetic waymark and they both end at an established prophetic waymark.

Inkathi kaNero yeminyaka engu-250 iphetha ngomlando kaConstantine oMKHULU, futhi leyo minyaka engu-250 ephethwa phakathi kwezimpi ezimbili ingumlando ka-Antiochus oMKHULU. Empini yaseRaphia, uPtolemy IV wanqoba u-Antiochus oMkhulu, futhi uPtolemy wabusa iminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa. Zombili lezi zikhathi zeminyaka engu-250 ziqukethe inkathi ecacile yeminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa. Zombili ziphetha emlandweni wombusi owaziwa ngokuthi oMKHULU. Zombili lezi zikhathi zeminyaka engu-250 ziqala esibonakalisweni esimiswe ngokwesiprofetho, futhi zombili ziphetha esibonakalisweni esimiswe ngokwesiprofetho.

The United States began on July 4, 1776 and 250 years later brings you to July 4, 2026 when Donald Trump, who is known as the one seeking to make America “great,” is going to celebrate those 250 years. 2026, like unto the 250 years from 457 BC concludes in the middle of the history of the modern battles of Raphia and Panium, known as the Ukrainian and Third World War. The reign of a southern king, the period of the first Sunday law and the period from the battle of Raphia to Panium provide three periods of seventeen years that are all connected with the same prophetic history. Three 250-year periods all arrive together in the same prophetic histories. The three periods of 250 years establish three lines of prophetic truth with history associated with Donald Trump, represented as either Constantine the Great, or Antiochus the Great.

I-United States yaqala ngoJulayi 4, 1776, futhi eminyakeni engu-250 kamuva kufika kuJulayi 4, 2026, lapho uDonald Trump, owaziwa njengofuna ukwenza iMelika “ibe nkulu,” ezogubha leyo minyaka engu-250. Unyaka ka-2026, njengeminyaka engu-250 kusukela ku-457 BC, uphetha phakathi nomlando wezimpi zesimanje zaseRaphia nasePanium, ezaziwa njengeMpi yase-Ukraine neMpi Yezwe Yesithathu. Ukubusa kwenkosi yaseningizimu, inkathi yomthetho wokuqala weSonto, nenkathi esukela empini yaseRaphia iye ePanium kunikeza izinkathi ezintathu zeminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa, zonke ezixhumene nomlando ofanayo wesiprofetho. Izikhathi ezintathu zeminyaka engu-250 zonke zifika ndawonye emlandweni ofanayo wesiprofetho. Lezi zikhathi ezintathu zeminyaka engu-250 zimisa imigqa emithathu yeqiniso lesiprofetho enomlando ohlobene noDonald Trump, omelelwa njengoConstantine Omkhulu noma njengo-Antiochus Omkhulu.

The three lines of 250 years provide three different, but complementary illustrations of the latter days. Nero’s line identifies the seventeen-year history of compromise that perfectly speaks to the prophetic characteristics of the formation of the image of the beast.

Imigqa emithathu yeminyaka engama-250 inikeza imifanekiso emithathu ehlukene, kodwa ehambisanayo, yezinsuku zokugcina. Umugqa kaNero uveza umlando weminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa wokuyekethisa okhuluma ngokuphelele ngezimpawu zesiprofetho zokwakheka komfanekiso wesilo.

> “The Lord has shown me clearly that the image of the beast will be formed before probation closes; for it is to be the great test for the people of God, by which their eternal destiny will be decided. Your position is such a jumble of inconsistencies that but few will be deceived.

> “INkosi ingibonisile ngokucacile ukuthi umfanekiso wesilo uyokwakhiwa ngaphambi kokuba isikhathi somusa siphele; ngoba yilokho okuyoba uvivinyo olukhulu kubantu bakaNkulunkulu, okuzonqunywa ngalo isiphetho sabo saphakade. Isikhundla sakho siyinhlanganisela enjalo yokungavumelani kangangokuthi bambalwa kuphela abayokhohliswa.

> “In Revelation 13 this subject is plainly presented; [Revelation 13:11–17, quoted].

> “Encwadini yesAmbulo 13 lolu daba lwethulwa ngokucacile; [IsAmbulo 13:11–17, kucashunwe].

> “This is the test that the people of God must have before they are sealed. All who proved their loyalty to God by observing His law, and refusing to accept a spurious sabbath, will rank under the banner of the Lord God Jehovah, and will receive the seal of the living God. Those who yield the truth of heavenly origin and accept the Sunday sabbath, will receive the mark of the beast.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

> “Lesi yisivivinyo abantu bakaNkulunkulu okumelwe babe naso ngaphambi kokuba babekwe uphawu. Bonke labo abafakazele ukwethembeka kwabo kuNkulunkulu ngokugcina umthetho waKhe, nangokwenqaba ukwamukela isabatha esingesiso, bayakuma ngaphansi kwesibhengezo seNkosi uNkulunkulu uJehova, futhi bayakwamukela uphawu lukaNkulunkulu ophilayo. Labo abalahla iqiniso elivela ezulwini futhi bamukele isabatha leSonto, bayakwamukela uphawu lwesilo.” Manuscript Releases, volume 15, 15.

The image of the beast is the combination of church and state, with the church in control of the relationship. The compromise of Constantine in attempting to bring paganism together with Christianity is the classic example of the compromise of the latter days.

Umfanekiso wesilo uyinhlanganisela yebandla nombuso, ibandla liphethe ukulawulwa kwalobo budlelwane. Ukuvumelana kuka-Constantine ekuzameni ukuhlanganisa ubuqaba nobuKristu kuyisibonelo esiyingqayizivele sokuyekethisa sezinsuku zokugcina.

> “In the movements now in progress in the United States to secure for the institutions and usages of the church the support of the state, Protestants are following in the steps of papists. Nay, more, they are opening the door for the papacy to regain in Protestant America the supremacy which she has lost in the Old World. And that which gives greater significance to this movement is the fact that the principal object contemplated is the enforcement of Sunday observance—a custom which originated with Rome, and which she claims as the sign of her authority. It is the spirit of the papacy—the spirit of conformity to worldly customs, the veneration for human traditions above the commandments of God—that is permeating the Protestant churches and leading them on to do the same work of Sunday exaltation which the papacy has done before them.

> “Ezinyakazweni eziqhubekayo manje e-United States zokutholela izikhungo nezimiso zebandla ukwesekwa nguhulumeni, amaProthestani alandela ezinyathelweni zabalandeli bobupapa. Kakhulukazi, avulela upapa umnyango wokuba aphinde azuze eMelika yamaProthestani ubukhosi obukhulu alahlekelwa yibo eZweni Elidala. Futhi lokho okunikeza le nhlangano ukubaluleka okukhulu nakakhulu yileli qiniso lokuthi inhloso eyinhloko ecatshangwayo ukuphoqelelwa kokugcinwa kweSonto—umkhuba owavela eRoma, futhi upapa athi uwuphawu lwegunya lakhe. Ngumoya wobupapa—umoya wokuvumelana namasiko ezwe, ukuhlonishwa kwamasiko abantu ngaphezu kwemiyalo kaNkulunkulu—ongena ugcwale amabandla amaProthestani futhi uwaholela ekwenzeni wona kanye lowo msebenzi wokuphakanyiswa kweSonto ubupapa obuwenzile ngaphambi kwawo.”

> “If the reader would understand the agencies to be employed in the soon-coming contest, he has but to trace the record of the means which Rome employed for the same object in ages past. If he would know how papists and Protestants united will deal with those who reject their dogmas, let him see the spirit which Rome manifested toward the Sabbath and its defenders.

> “Uma umfundi efisa ukuqonda izinhlaka ezizosebenza empini esondela ngokushesha, akanakwenza okunye ngaphandle kokulandela umlando wezindlela iRoma eyazisebenzisa ukuze ifinyelele leyo nhloso ezikhathini ezedlule. Uma efisa ukwazi ukuthi amaPapa namaProthestani behlangene bayophatha kanjani labo abalahla izimfundiso zabo ezingamanga, makabone umoya iRoma eyawubonakalisa maqondana neSabatha nalabo abayivikelayo.

> “Royal edicts, general councils, and church ordinances sustained by secular power were the steps by which the pagan festival attained its position of honor in the Christian world. The first public measure enforcing Sunday observance was the law enacted by Constantine. (A.D. 321) This edict required townspeople to rest on ‘the venerable day of the sun,’ but permitted countrymen to continue their agricultural pursuits. Though virtually a heathen statute, it was enforced by the emperor after his nominal acceptance of Christianity.” The Great Controversy, 574.

> “Izimemezelo zasebukhosini, imikhandlu emikhulu, nemithetho yebandla esekelwe ngamandla ombuso kwakuyizinyathelo lapho umkhosi wobuhedeni wafinyelela ngazo esikhundleni sawo sokuhlonishwa ezweni lobuKristu. Isinyathelo sokuqala somphakathi sokuphoqelela ukugcinwa kweSonto kwakuwumthetho owashaywa nguConstantine. (A.D. 321) Lesi simemezelo sadinga ukuba abantu basemadolobheni baphumule ‘ngosuku oluhloniphekileyo lwelanga,’ kodwa savumela abantu basemakhaya ukuba baqhubeke nemisebenzi yabo yezolimo. Nakuba empeleni wawuyisimiso sobuhedeni, waphoqelelwa ngumbusi emva kokwamukela kwakhe ubuKristu ngegama kuphela.” The Great Controversy, 574.

The progression of compromise that led to, and will again lead to the Sunday law is represented with the seventeen-year period from 313 to 330, with the first Sunday law of 321 as the midpoint of the history. At the beginning was a marriage of east and west, and at the end was the divorce of east and west. The first Sunday law is the middle waymark representing rebellion, just as the thirteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, when preceded by the first letter and followed by the twenty-second and last letter of the alphabet makes up the Hebrew word truth. Marriage at the beginning and divorce at the end identifies the alpha letter in agreement with the omega letter. The period of 250-years that began with Nero has the signature of Christ, and it speaks to a subject of present truth in the latter days.

Ukuqhubekela phambili kokuyekethisa okwaholela, futhi okuyophinde kuholele emthethweni weSonto, kumelwe yisikhathi seminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa kusukela ku-313 kuya ku-330, lapho umthetho wokuqala weSonto ka-321 uyisiphawu esiphakathi salo mlando. Ekuqaleni kwakukhona umshado wempumalanga nentshonalanga, kanti ekugcineni kwaba isehlukaniso sempumalanga nentshonalanga. Umthetho wokuqala weSonto uyisiphawu esiphakathi esimele ukuhlubuka, njengalokhu uhlamvu lweshumi nantathu lwezinhlamvu zamaHeberu, uma lwandulelwa uhlamvu lokuqala futhi lulandelwe uhlamvu lwamashumi amabili nambili nolokugcina lwezinhlamvu, lwenza igama lesiHeberu elithi iqiniso. Umshado ekuqaleni nesehlukaniso ekugcineni kukhomba uhlamvu lwe-alpha luvumelana nohlamvu lwe-omega. Isikhathi seminyaka engama-250 esaqala ngoNero sinesiginesha kaKristu, futhi sikhuluma ngendaba yeqiniso lamanje ezinsukwini zokugcina.

The 250-year period that begins with 457 BC is emphasizing the statecraft represented by Antiochus the Great as he stands within the seventeen-year period from Raphia to Panium. We understand it as statecraft, for in 457 BC a prophecy of 2,300 years also began. The 2,300 years is the internal line of prophecy that speaks to God’s work of redemption, which aligns with a symbol of churchcraft. Unlike the 250-year period that began with Nero, the period that begins in 457 BC is addressing the political role of the last American president who is seeking to make America and then the world great, as he promotes the erroneous Catholic concept of a golden age of a thousand years of peace.

Isikhathi seminyaka engama-250 esiqala ngo-457 BC sigcizelela ubuciko bokubusa kombuso obumelwe ngu-Antiochus Omkhulu njengoba emi ngaphakathi kwesikhathi seminyaka eyishumi nesikhombisa esisukela eRaphia kuya ePanium. Sikuqonda njengobuciko bokubusa kombuso, ngoba ngo-457 BC kwaqala futhi isiprofetho seminyaka engu-2,300. Leyo minyaka engu-2,300 iwumugqa wangaphakathi wesiprofetho okhuluma ngomsebenzi kaNkulunkulu wokuhlenga, ohambisana nophawu lobuciko besonto. Ngokungafani nesikhathi seminyaka engama-250 esaqala ngoNero, isikhathi esiqala ngo-457 BC sikhuluma ngendima yezombusazwe kamongameli wokugcina waseMelika ofuna ukwenza iMelika ibe nkulu bese kuba njalo nezwe, njengoba ekhuthaza umqondo oyiphutha wamaKatolika wenkathi yegolide yeminyaka eyinkulungwane yokuthula.

The 250 years of the United States, who is the earth beast of Revelation thirteen identifies the conclusion of the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy, that ends where it began, in the midst of war. The victors of history, define the record of history that is preserved. The globalist dragon powered Democrats, view the current anarchy as a revolution, and the all-talk and no action Republicans view this current history as a civil war. The Democrats are representatives of the dragon of Bible prophecy, and the Republicans are represented as apostate Protestants, or in the terms of John in Revelation sixteen, they are the false prophet. The United States began in a war of revolution and it ends with a war of revolution. The Republican party began in a civil war and they end in a civil war. Republicans see the civil war that Democrats call a revolution.

Iminyaka engama-250 yase-United States, okuyisilo somhlaba seSambulo seshumi nantathu, ikhomba isiphetho sombuso wesithupha wesiprofetho seBhayibheli, ophela lapho waqala khona, phakathi kwempi. Abanqobi bomlando yibo abachaza umlando ogcinwayo. AmaDemocrat anamandla anikezwa udrako ongowobumbano lomhlaba wonke abona lesi siphithiphithi samanje njengenguquko, kanti amaRepublican akhuluma kakhulu engenzi lutho abona lo mlando wamanje njengempi yombango. AmaDemocrat angabamele udrako wesiprofetho seBhayibheli, kanti amaRepublican amelanywa njengamaProthestani ahlubukileyo, noma, ngamazwi kaJohane kuSambulo seshumi nesithupha, bangumprofethi wamanga. I-United States yaqala ngempi yenguquko, futhi iphetha ngempi yenguquko. Iqembu lamaRepublican laqala empini yombango, futhi liphetha empini yombango. AmaRepublican abona impi yombango amaDemocrat ayibiza ngokuthi inguquko.

Trump, as the last Republican president possesses the prophetic attributes of the first Republican president, who arrived in the external history of the Civil War. Lincoln’s external Civil War was also the internal history of Isaiah’s prophecy of chapter seven, verse eight that ended in 1863, the very year of the Emancipation Proclamation. The distinction between the two parties is a primary and foundational prophetic principle. It began with Cain and Abel, who in the time of Christ were represented by the Sadducees and the Pharisees, two classes of Cain who were to murder one Abel.

UTrump, njengomongameli wokugcina weRiphabhulikhi, unazo izimfanelo zesiprofetho zomongameli wokuqala weRiphabhulikhi, owafika emlandweni wangaphandle weMpi Yombango. IMpi Yombango yangaphandle kaLincoln yayiyingumlando wangaphakathi futhi wesiprofetho sika-Isaya isahluko sesikhombisa, ivesi lesishiyagalombili, esaphela ngo-1863, okuyiwona kanye unyaka weSimemezelo Sokukhululwa. Umehluko phakathi kwala maqembu amabili uyisimiso sesiprofetho esiyinhloko nesisekelo. Waqala ngoKhayini no-Abela, abathi ngesikhathi sikaKristu bamelwa ngabaSadusi nabaFarisi, izigaba ezimbili zikaKhayini ezazizobulala u-Abela oyedwa.

The Pharisees and Sadducees represent those who agreed to crucify their Messiah, for different reasons, but agreement—just the same. The Pharisees professed to uphold the law, but didn’t, as with Republicans. The Pharisees professed to uphold the original divine law, but interpreted the law through their own bigoted logic. The original Law for the Pharisees is the Constitution for the Republicans, the very Constitution they claim to support, but don’t. The Sadducees rejected the power of God, and though a smaller sect than the Pharisees, the Sadducees controlled the religious and political landscape of Judea in the time of Christ. The Democrats are a smaller sect than the Republicans, so small they must cheat to stay in power, but stay in power they do, for their opponents who profess to uphold equal justice for all, do nothing to enforce the principles of the law they profess to uphold.

AbaFarisi nabaSadusi bamele labo abavuma ukubethela uMesiya wabo esiphambanweni, ngezizathu ezehlukene, kodwa kusekuwukuvumelana—kunjalo nje. AbaFarisi babezibiza ngokuthi bayaligcina umthetho, kodwa babengawugcini, njengoba kunjalo nangamaRepublican. AbaFarisi babezibiza ngokuthi bayawugcina umthetho wokuqala wobuNkulunkulu, kodwa bewuhumusha lowo mthetho ngengqondo yabo enobandlululo. Umthetho wokuqala kumaFarisi uyilo uMthethosisekelo kumaRepublican, wona kanye uMthethosisekelo abathi bayawusekela, kodwa bengawusekeli. AbaSadusi benqaba amandla kaNkulunkulu, futhi nakuba babeyihlelo elincane kunabaFarisi, abaSadusi babephethe isimo senkolo nesombusazwe saseJudiya ngesikhathi sikaKristu. AmaDemocrat ayihlelo elincane kunamaRepublican, emancane kangangokuthi kufanele akhohlise ukuze ahlale emandleni, kodwa ayahlala emandleni impela, ngoba abaphikisi bawo abazibiza ngokuthi bayalondoloza ubulungisa obulinganayo kubo bonke, abenzi lutho ukuphoqelela izimiso zomthetho abazibiza ngokuthi bayawugcina.

There is nothing new under the sun, and the two political parties in the United States are as much a part of the prophetic landscape as were the Pharisees and Sadducees. There are of course many other parallels along this prophetic line, but it is only when you see the prophetic relationship of the two unholy powers, who though adversaries, become united against holiness, that you then see Ptolemy and Uzziah in the proper light. Both southern kings attempted to sacrifice at the same temple, but Ptolemy, from Egypt represents a dragon power—the Democrats. Uzziah, as king of Judea is the leader of the glorious land, who is apostate Protestantism, or the false prophet—the Republicans.

Akukho okusha phansi kwelanga, futhi amaqembu amabili ezombusazwe e-United States ayingxenye yomhlaba wesiprofetho ngendlela efanayo nalokho abaFarisi nabaSadusi ababeyiyo. Kunjalo impela ukuthi kukhona nezinye izifaniso eziningi kule ndima yesiprofetho, kodwa kungesikhathi kuphela lapho ubona khona ubudlelwane besiprofetho bamandla amabili angengcwele, wona nakuba eyizitha, ahlangana amelane nobungcwele, lapho-ke usubona uPtolemy no-Uziya ekukhanyeni okufanele. Womabili amakhosi aseningizimu azama ukunikela umhlatshelo ethempelini elifanayo, kodwa uPtolemy, evela eGibhithe, umele amandla kadrako—amaDemocrats. U-Uziya, njengenkosi yakwaJuda, ungumholi wezwe elikhazimulayo, okuyiProthestani elihlubukileyo, noma umprofethi wamanga—amaRepublicans.

The relationship of the dragon and false prophet is classically represented at Mount Carmel. At the mount, Ahab represented the dragon and Jezebel’s prophets of Baal and Ashtaroth represented the false prophets who stood against Elijah. The beast that is Jezebel was still behind the scenes in Samaria. The dragon united with the false prophet was also represented by pagan Rome and the Jews unification at the cross, as will be the unification of the Democrats and the Republicans at the Sunday law. The elements of a united power are represented by the Democrats and Republicans within the Republican horn of the earth beast. Those two unholy political powers are represented by Cain, and the line of Abel also possesses a twofold division.

Ubudlelwane bukadrako nomprofethi wamanga buvezwa ngokwesiko eNtabeni iKarmeli. Entabeni, u-Ahabi wayemele drako, kanti abaprofethi bakaBali no-Ashitaroti bakaJezebeli babemele abaprofethi bamanga ababema bemelene no-Eliya. Isilo esinguJezebeli sasisesezithunzini eSamariya. Drako ehlangene nomprofethi wamanga yabuye yamelwa yiRoma yamaqaba nokuhlangana kwamaJuda esiphambanweni, njengoba kuyakuba njalo ukuhlanganiswa kwamaDemokhrathi namaRiphabhulikhi emthethweni weSonto. Izakhi zamandla ahlangene zimelelwa amaDemokhrathi namaRiphabhulikhi ngaphakathi kophondo lweRiphabhulikhi lwesilo somhlaba. Lawo mandla ezombusazwe amabili angcwele amelwe nguKayini, kanti nohlanga luka-Abela nalo luneqoqo eliphindwe kabili.

Abel’s line, which in relation to Cain’s external line is the internal line, and is represented by two classes of virgins. The progression of the Protestant horn of the earth beast that is the United States is represented by a series of religious purging’s beginning with the church of Sardis in 1798, when the United States became the sixth kingdom of Bible prophecy. Sardis was a church who had a name claiming that it lived, but it was dead. By 1798 the Protestant sects that had broken away from the papal church were already returning to Rome. Christians were first named Christians in Antioch.

Uhla luka-Abela, oluthi maqondana nohla lwangaphandle lukaKayini lube uhlangothi lwangaphakathi, futhi lumelwe yizigaba ezimbili zezintombi. Ukuqhubekela phambili kophondo lwamaProthestani lwesilo somhlaba oluyi-United States kumelwa uchungechunge lokuhlanzwa kwenkolo oluqala ngebandla laseSardisi ngo-1798, lapho i-United States yaba ngumbuso wesithupha wesiprofetho seBhayibheli. ISardisi laliyibandla elalinalo igama elisho ukuthi liyaphila, kodwa lalifile. Ngonyaka ka-1798 amahlelo amaProthestani ayesehlukene nesonto lobupapa ayesevele ebuyela eRoma. AmaKristu aqala ukubizwa ngokuthi amaKristu e-Antiyokiya.

> “It was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. The name was given them because Christ was the main theme of their preaching, their teaching, and their conversation. Continually they were recounting the incidents that had occurred during the days of His earthly ministry, when His disciples were blessed with His personal presence. Untiringly they dwelt upon His teachings and His miracles of healing. With quivering lips and tearful eyes they spoke of His agony in the garden, His betrayal, trial, and execution, the forbearance and humility with which He had endured the contumely and torture imposed upon Him by His enemies, and the Godlike pity with which He had prayed for those who persecuted Him. His resurrection and ascension, and His work in heaven as the Mediator for fallen man, were topics on which they rejoiced to dwell. Well might the heathen call them Christians, since they preached Christ and addressed their prayers to God through Him.

> “Kwase-Antiyokiya lapho abafundi baqala khona ukubizwa ngokuthi amaKristu. Lelo gama banikwa lona ngoba uKristu wayeyisihloko esiyinhloko sokushumayela kwabo, sokufundisa kwabo, nesengxoxo yabo. Ngokuqhubekayo babebalisa izigameko ezazenzekile ngezinsuku zenkonzo Yakhe yasemhlabeni, lapho abafundi Bakhe babebusisiwe ngobukhona Bakhe uqobo. Ngokungakhathali babehlala becabanga ngezimfundiso Zakhe nangemimangaliso Yakhe yokuphulukisa. Ngezindebe ezazithuthumela namehlo agcwele izinyembezi babekhuluma ngosizi Lwakhe ensimini, ngokukhashelwa Kwakhe, ukuquliswa Kwakhe, nokubulawa Kwakhe, nangokubekezela nokuzithoba Ayekukhombisa ekukhuthazeleni ukuhlazeka nokuhlushwa Ayekwethweswe yizitha Zakhe, nangomusa onjengoNkulunkulu ayekhuleka ngawo ngenxa yalabo ababemshushisa. Ukuvuka Kwakhe kwabafileyo nokwenyukela Kwakhe ezulwini, nomsebenzi Wakhe ezulwini njengoMlamuleli womuntu owileyo, kwakuyizihloko ababethokoza ukuhlala kuzo. Ngokuqinisekile abezizwe babengababiza ngokuthi amaKristu, njengoba babeshumayela uKristu futhi bethumela imikhuleko yabo kuNkulunkulu ngaye.

> “It was God who gave to them the name of Christian. This is a royal name, given to all who join themselves to Christ. It was of this name that James wrote later, ‘Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats? Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?’ James 2:6, 7. And Peter declared, ‘If any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.’ ‘If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you.’ 1 Peter 4:16, 14.” Acts of the Apostles, 157.

> “KwakunguNkulunkulu owabanika igama elithi maKristu. Leli yigama lobukhosi, elinikezwa kubo bonke abazihlanganisa noKristu. Kwakungaleli gama uJakobe abhala ngalo kamuva, ethi, ‘Abacebileyo kabanicindezeli yini, banihudulele ezihlalweni zokwahlulela na? Abalihlanekezeli yini lelo gama elihle enabizwa ngalo?’ Jakobe 2:6, 7. Futhi uPetru wamemezela, ‘Uma umuntu ehlupheka njengomKristu, makangabi namahloni; kodwa makadumise uNkulunkulu ngalokho.’ ‘Uma nihlambalazwa ngenxa yegama likaKristu, nibusisiwe; ngokuba uMoya wenkazimulo noMoya kaNkulunkulu uphumula phezu kwenu.’ 1 Petru 4:16, 14.” Izenzo ZabaPhostoli, 157.

The church of Ephesus was given the name of Christian which led to the persecuted church of Smyrna, that was followed by the church of compromise in the history of Pergamos. When the papacy took the throne, a separation identified God’s true church as the church in the wilderness. The Roman church was Thyatira. At the ending of the wilderness of twelve hundred and sixty years, the church of Protestantism arose, and from that point onward the Protestant horn is represented by a divine series of tests and purges.

Ibandla lase-Efesu lanikwa igama lokuthi ubuKristu, okwaholela ebandleni elashushiswayo laseSmirna; kwalandelwa yilokho ibandla lokuyekethisa emlandweni wasePergamoni. Lapho ubupapa buthatha isihlalo sobukhosi, ukwahlukana kwabonakalisa ibandla likaNkulunkulu leqiniso njengebandla elisehlane. Ibandla laseRoma laliyilo iThiyathira. Ekupheleni kwehlane leminyaka eyinkulungwane namakhulu amabili namashumi ayisithupha, kwavela ibandla lobuProthestani, futhi kusukela kuleso sikhathi kuya phambili uphondo lwamaProthestani lumelelwa uchungechunge olungcwele lwezivivinyo nezokuhlanzwa.

Protestantism began when Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses upon the door in 1517, and “23” years later in 1540 the Jesuit order began. In 2013 the 95th and final presentation of Habakkuk’s Tables was nailed to the door, and on March 13, 2013¸ the first Jesuit pope was inaugurated. Martin Luther was excommunicated in that very history by pope Leo. Go figure…

UbuProthestani baqala lapho uMartin Luther ebethela izimangalo zakhe ezingu-95 emnyango ngo-1517, kwathi eminyakeni engu-“23” kamuva, ngo-1540, kwaqala uhlelo lwamaJesuiti. Ngo-2013, ukwethulwa kwama-95 nokokugcina kwamaThebula kaHabakuki kwabethelwa emnyango, kwathi ngoMashi 13, 2013, upapa wokuqala ongumJesuiti wabekwa esikhundleni. UMartin Luther waxoshwa eBandleni kulowo mlando uqobo ngupapa uLeo. Zibonele-ke…

In 1798 the church of Sardis claimed to hold to the name of “Protestant,” but by returning to Rome they were already failing to uphold their name. When Millerite Adventism took the torch of Protestantism in 1844, they represented a rebuke against Jeroboam the first king of Israel, a nation who were blood relatives of the tribe in Judah, where God had placed His temple. Jeroboam set up a counterfeit, based upon the religion that represented his nation’s former bondage. He repeated Aaron’s foundational rebellion of erecting an image of a beast with all the prophetic significance associated with the story. But at his dedication service Millerite Adventism rebuked his unwillingness to continue to direct true worship to the sanctuary where God lives. Jeroboam, wanted the focus of worship to be in Bethel and Dan, representing those from Sardis in 1844 who refused to follow Christ into the Most Holy Place.

Ngo-1798 ibandla laseSardisi lathi libambelele egameni elithi “iProthestani,” kodwa ngokubuyela eRoma lase lihluleka kakade ukusekela igama lalo. Ngenkathi ubu-Adventismu bamaMillerite buthatha isibani sobuProthestani ngo-1844, babemele ukusola uJerobowamu inkosi yokuqala yakwa-Israyeli, isizwe esasiyizihlobo zegazi zesizwe sakwaJuda, lapho uNkulunkulu ayebeke khona ithempeli laKhe. UJerobowamu wamisa inkohliso, esekelwe enkolweni eyayimele ubugqila bangaphambili besizwe sakhe. Waphinda ukuvukela okuyisisekelo kuka-Aroni kokumisa umfanekiso wesilo, kanye nakho konke ukubaluleka kwesiprofetho okuhlobene naleyo ndaba. Kodwa enkonzweni yabo yokuzinikezela ubu-Adventismu bamaMillerite bakusola ukungavumi kwakhe ukuqhubeka eqondisa ukukhonza kweqiniso endaweni engcwele lapho uNkulunkulu ehlala khona. UJerobowamu wayefuna ukuthi ukugxila kokukhonza kube seBetheli naseDani, okufanekisela labo baseSardisi ngo-1844 abenqaba ukulandela uKristu angene eNdaweni Engcwelengcwele Kakhulu.

Millerite Adventism chose to return to the religion of Rome, and took up the very doctrinal arguments of those who had just been exposed as false prophets through their rejection of Miller’s message; as their theological masters in order to justify their rejection of the prophetic message of the seven times. Millerite Adventism, as with the disobedient prophet chose their own path, instead of following God’s direction. The path that is chosen by the foolish in all the tests and purges of the wise and foolish virgins from the Protestant reformation onward in prophetic history is the path which returns to the worship of the land that you were delivered from, and as they say, “all roads lead to Rome.” All roads except Jeremiah’s old paths.

Ubu-Adventist bukaMiller bakhetha ukubuyela enkolweni yaseRoma, bathatha nezona zimpikiswano zemfundiso zalabo ababesesanda kuvezwa njengabaprofethi bamanga ngokwenqaba kwabo umlayezo kaMiller; bazenza laba njengabafundisi babo bezemfundiso ukuze bathethelele ukwenqaba kwabo umlayezo wesiprofetho wezikhathi eziyisikhombisa. Ubu-Adventist bukaMiller, njengomprofethi ongalalelanga, bakhetha indlela yabo siqu esikhundleni sokulandela ukuqondisa kukaNkulunkulu. Indlela ekhethwa iziwula kuzo zonke izivivinyo nokuhlungwa kwezintombi ezihlakaniphileyo neziziwula kusukela eNguqukweni yamaProthestani kuya phambili emlandweni wesiprofetho yindlela ebuyela ekukhonzeni izwe enakhululwa kulo, futhi njengoba besho, “zonke izindlela ziholela eRoma.” Zonke izindlela ngaphandle kwezindlela zasendulo zikaJeremiya.

The Protestant reformation had been typified by Moses’ return to Egypt in order to lead God’s people into the Promised Land. Once out of the land of captivity God purposed to give His chosen people His law. In the line of Moses and the Protestant reformation rebellion was manifested immediately after the deliverance. God tested Sardis, a people who claimed to have a living name, but were dead by the time of the message of William Miller. Two purging’s took place in 1844; the first was the purge of the church of Sardis, who had claimed to be Protestants, but were proven to be dead; and then the Millerite’s were purged in the same year, in fulfillment of the parable of the ten virgins.

Uguquko lwamaProthestani lwalufanekiswe ukubuya kukaMose eGibhithe ukuze ahole abantu bakaNkulunkulu bangene eZweni Lesithembiso. Sebephumile ezweni lokuthunjwa, uNkulunkulu wayehlose ukunikeza abantu Bakhe abakhethiweyo umthetho waKhe. Ohlwini lukaMose nolwoguquko lwamaProthestani, ukuvukela kwabonakaliswa ngokushesha ngemva kokukhululwa. UNkulunkulu wavivinya iSardisi, abantu ababethi banegama eliphilayo, kodwa babefile ngesikhathi somlayezo kaWilliam Miller. Kwenzeka ukuhlanzwa okubili ngo-1844; okokuqala kwaba ukuhlanzwa kwebandla laseSardisi, elalizibiza ngokuthi ngamaProthestani, kodwa lafakazelwa ukuthi lifile; kwase kuthi amaMillerite ahlanzwe ngalowo nyaka ofanayo, ekugcwalisekeni komfanekiso wezintombi eziyishumi.

The Democrats and Republicans represent two political classes that together make up the Republican horn on the earth beast of Revelation thirteen. The wise and foolish virgins are two religious classes that together make up the Protestant horn on the earth beast. The wise virgins possess the first name given at Antioch. The wise virgins are Christians, but they are also Philadelphians who have the promise of receiving a name.

AmaDemocrat namaRepublican amele izigaba ezimbili zezombusazwe ezihlangene zakha uphondo lweRiphabhulikhi esilwaneni somhlaba sesAmbulo isahluko seshumi nantathu. Izintombi ezihlakaniphileyo neziyiziwula ziyizigaba ezimbili zenkolo ezihlangene zakha uphondo lwamaProthestani esilwaneni somhlaba. Izintombi ezihlakaniphileyo ziphethe igama lokuqala elanikezwa e-Antiyokiya. Izintombi ezihlakaniphileyo zingamaKristu, kodwa futhi zingamaFiladelfiya anesithembiso sokwamukela igama.

> Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Revelation 3:12.

> Onqobayo ngiyomenza insika ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wami, futhi akasayikuphuma futhi; ngiyakuloba phezu kwakhe igama likaNkulunkulu wami, negama lomuzi kaNkulunkulu wami, okuyiJerusalema elisha, elehla livela ezulwini kuNkulunkulu wami; futhi ngiyakuloba phezu kwakhe igama lami elisha. IsAmbulo 3:12.

The first time God named His people Christian was at Antioch, and the history where the Laodicean movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand changes unto the Philadelphian movement of the one hundred and forty-four thousand is also the history of Antiochus the Great, who the city of Antioch is named after, and who is represented at the end of a 250-year period between the battles of Raphia and Panium.

Isikhathi sokuqala uNkulunkulu aqamba ngaso abantu baKhe ngokuthi bangamaKristu kwakuse-Antiyokiya, futhi umlando lapho ukunyakaza kwabaseLawodikeya kwabazinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane kuguqukela ekunyakazeni kwabaseFiladelfiya kwabazinkulungwane eziyikhulu namashumi amane nane nawo ungumlando ka-Antiyokhusi Omkhulu, idolobha lase-Antiyokiya eliqanjwe ngaye, futhi omelwe ekupheleni kwesikhathi seminyaka engamakhulu amabili namashumi amahlanu phakathi kwezimpi zaseRafiya nasePaniumi.
