Skanggipa Bon∙kamgipa Bichal Ka∙ani

1.Gabriel sa∙gre Danielna 1844 bilsio salgio bichal ka∙ani gimin nikaniko on∙aha. Skanggipa bichal ka∙aniko pre-advent judgment ine mingaha maina ian Jisuni gnigipa re∙bana skang ong∙enga. Maidakgipa dolni manderang skanggipa bichal ka∙anio ong∙gen? Basako uan bon∙egen?

“Maina bichal Isolni nokoni a∙bachengna sal ong∙aha” (1 Pitor 4:17). “Oniako dakgipa onia dakangchina; moilagipa moila ong∙angchina; aro kakketgpa kakket dakangchina; aro rongtalgipa rongtala ong∙angchina. Nibo, anga bakbak re∙baa; aro uamangni kam ong∙a gita, sakantina on∙na ine angni on∙gni dormaha ang baksan” (Parape∙a 22:11,12).

Aganchakani: Ian Jisuni gnigipa re∙bana skangmangmang matchotgen. (1844ni somoini a∙bachenganiko Poraiani lesson 18 o talataha.) Tangoba sioba, jerangan Kristianrang ong∙a ine chanako man∙aha (“Isolni nokoni”) pre- advent judgment ba Kristoni re∙bana skang bichal ka∙anio bak donggen.

(2) Sawa bichal ka∙aniko dakdilgen? Sawa warachakgipa ukil ong∙a? sawa bichal ka∙gipa ong∙a? Sawa matnanggipa ong∙a? Sawa sakki ong∙a?

“Aro budepa saksa asongaha… Uni singhason wal∙sare…bichal ka∙ani ong∙aha, aro ki∙taprangko oaha” (Daniel 7:9,10). “Pagipani mikkango an∙chingna aganchakgipa gnang, Jisu Kristo toromigipa” (1 Johan 2:1). “Maina Pagipa, pilak bichal ka∙ako Depantena on∙aha” (Johan 5:22). “Diabol, maina anchingni jongadarangko matnanggipako, chongmotan sal wal anchingni Isolni mikkangko matnanggipako matnanggipako galataha” (Para. 12:9,10). “Amen, kakket aro bebegipa saki aro Isolni dakanirangni ja∙pang iarangko agana” (Para. 3:14).  (Kolosirangna 1:12-13.)

Aganchakani: Pagipa Isol, Budepa saksa, bichal ka∙aniko a∙bachengataha. Ua nang∙na namen ka∙sagipa ong∙a (Johan 16:27). Satan nang∙ko matnangipasan ong∙a. Salgini kachario, Jisu, jean nang∙na ka∙sara – aro nang∙ni nambatsranggipa ripeng – Uan nang∙ni ukil, bichal ka∙gipa, aro sakki ong∙a. Aro Ua bichal ka∙aniko “rongtalgiparangni” (Daniel 7:22) palo dakgen.

Kristoni re∙bana skang bichal ka∙aniko dakanio maiasa sakkini pangchakani ong∙gen? Maidakgipa niamo pangchake an∙ching sakantian bichal ka∙aniko man∙gen? Isolara sakanti mandekon pilakkon u∙itokahaode, maina bichal ka∙aniko nanga?

“Bichal ka∙ani ong∙aha, aro ki∙taprangko oaha” (Daniel 7:10). “Aro anga sigiminrangko, dal∙a aro chona, singhasonni mikkango chadengako nikaha. Aro ki∙taprangko oaha” (Para. 20:12). “Jakgitelni niamchi bichal ka∙ako” (Jakob 2:12) man∙gen. “Maina chinga a∙gilsakna, aro manderangnaba, niani ong∙aha” (1 Kor. 4:9).

Aganchakani: Ia kacharina sakkirangko “Ki∙taprang” oniko man∙aha jeon mandeni janggi tangani chugimikkon serike donaniko dakaha. Bebe ong∙ani, bi∙aniko serikani, pap ku∙rachakani, aro pap kema ka∙aniko man∙ani pilakkon uano nikna man∙a. Ia serikanian chong∙mot ong∙aniko mesokani daka je Isolni bilan Kristianrangni janggi tanganirangko dingtangatna man∙a. Isol An∙tangni rongtalgiparangko ra∙chakaha aro uamangni janggi tanganirangni sakiko sualanio katchagen. Bichal ka∙anian bebe ong∙aniko mesoka jeon, “Kristoo donggiparangna mamung matnanganiko dongja. Maina Kristo Jisuo janggini Gisikni niam papni aro siani niamoni angko jakgitel ong∙ataha” (Rom. 8:1,2).

Ge∙eta Niam Mingchikkungan Isolni bichal ka∙aniko dakani pangchakani ong∙a (Jakob 2:10-12). Uni niamko peanian pap onga (1 Johan 3:4). Niamni toromi ong∙ani Uni pilak manderango Jisuchi chu∙sokatgen (Rom. 8:3,4). Ian ong∙na amgijani ine agananiara Jisuni kattako aro Uni bilko ka∙dongchakgijani ong∙gen.

Bichal ka∙aniara Isolna u∙iatna ong∙ja. Una pilakkon chu∙gimikan u∙iatmanaha (2 Tim. 2:19). Indiba papchi ong∙siatgimin a∙gilsakoni piokako man∙giminrang salgiona re∙baenga. Sa∙gre aro ga∙akgugijagipa a∙gilsakni manderang papo ga∙aktaitaigipa manderangko rimnapnade uamangna kusi ong∙gijani ong∙genchim. Indake, bichal ka∙aniko chu∙gimikan oprake on∙gen aro pilak sing∙anina aganchakaniko dakgen. Satanni chong∙motgipa miksonganide ua Isolko mikkang nigipa, ka∙namgijagipa, ka∙sachaka grigipa, aro bebegijagipa ong∙a ine pangnan mandera∙gijaniko dakronga. Una bateba ian a∙gilsak aro salgisak gimikni manderangna Isolara baditana kingking papirangna chakchikna nangchongmotani ong∙ahachim uko skanggipa changna nikatna nangani ong∙aha. Isolni cholonni kakket bichal ka∙aniko dake rai on∙aniba minggipin nangchongmotgipa miksongani ong∙a (Para. 11:16-19; 15:2-4; 16:5,7;19:1,2; Daniel 4:36,37). Uni kakket ong∙e bichal ka∙ahanina Isolko mitelaha aro rasongko on∙aha ine u∙ie ra∙bo.

4.Mandeni maikdakgipa janggi tanganiko Kristoni re∙bana skang sandie bichal ka∙anio man∙aha? Maidake chong∙mot ong∙aniko ma∙sina man∙gen? Maikai on∙pilskaani boksikni gimin chanchianiko dakgen?

“Maina kam mingantiko namoba namjaoba, donnuani mingantiko Isol bichalona ra∙bagen” (Aganpraka 12:14). “Mi raona kingking minggnikoba dal∙rimchina donbo…Mandeni Depante An∙tangni sa∙grerangko watatgen, aro uamang uni songnokoniko pilak ja∙gidotanirangko, aro namgija dakgiparangko chimonge wa∙alni a∙kolo uamangko galgen” (Mati 13:30,41). “Nibo, anga bakbak re∙baa; aro uamangni kam ong∙a gita, sakantina on∙na ine angni on∙gni dormaha ang baksan” (Para. 22:12).

Aganchakani: Mandeni janggi tanga gimikkon, donnugimin chanchianirangko aro donnugimin kamrangkoba watchanggalgija namedaken nipiltaianiko dakgen. Iani giminsa, ia skanggip gadangni bichal kaaniko “sandie bichal kaani” ine mingaha. Kristianrang ong∙a ine an∙tangtangko agangipa sakantikon ia bichal ka∙anio tik dake dongen.

“Ba rongtalgiparang a∙gilsakko bichal ka∙gen ine na∙simang u∙ijama?... An∙chinga sa∙grerangko bichal ka∙gen ine na∙simang u∙ijama?” (1 Kor. 6:2,3). “Anga singhasonrangko nikaha, aro uarango asonggiparangna bichal ka∙aniko on∙aha” (Parapea 20:4).

Aganchakani: “Rongtalgiparang” – Pilak chasongrangoni jokgimin manderang jerangkon Kristo An∙tangni gnigipa re∙bapilanio salgichina rimanggen. Chanchipe nokdang ge∙sa jean an∙tangtangni so∙ota man∙gipa namnikbatsranggipa depanteko salgio ong∙jaode – indiba so∙otgipa re∙anggenchimode. Ka∙donga grian mitam aganchakanirangko nanggenchim.

Thought Questions

---

1. What is the difference between accepting Jesus as Savior and accepting Him as Lord?

The difference is significant. When you accept Him as Savior, He saves you from the guilt and penalty of sin and gives you the new birth. He changes you from sinner to saint. This transaction is a glorious miracle and is essential to salvation. No one can be saved without it. However, Jesus is not finished with you at this point. You have been born again, but His plan is that you also grow up to become like Him (Ephesians 4:13). When you accept Him daily as the ruler—Lord—of your life, He, by His miracles, causes you to grow in grace and Christian conduct until you are mature in Christ (2 Peter 3:18).

The Problem—Our Own Way
The problem is that we want to run our own lives and to have our own way. The Bible calls this “iniquity”—that is, sin (Isaiah 53:6). Making Jesus our Lord is so important that the New Testament mentions Him as “Lord” 766 times! In the book of Acts alone, He is referred to as “Lord” 110 times and as “Savior” only twice. This demonstrates how important it is to know Him as Lord and Ruler of our lives.

A Neglected Imperative—Making Him Lord
Jesus placed continuing emphasis upon His Lordship because He knew that crowning Him Lord would be a forgotten and neglected imperative (2 Corinthians 4:5). Unless we make Him Lord of our lives, there is no way we can ever become full-grown Christians clothed in Christ’s righteousness. Instead, we stay “wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked”—and, even worse, feeling that we “have need of nothing” (Revelation 3:17).

2. Since the record of the sins of God’s people was transferred to the scapegoat on the Day of Atonement, doesn’t that also make him our sin-bearer? Didn’t Jesus alone bear our sins?

The scapegoat, which represents Satan, in no way bears or pays for our sins. The Lord’s goat, which was sacrificed on the Day of Atonement, represented Jesus, who assumed and paid for our sins on Calvary. Jesus alone “takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29). Satan will be punished (as will all other sinners—Revelation 20:12–15) for his own sins, which will include responsibility for (1) the existence of sin, (2) his own evil actions, and (3) influencing every person on earth to sin. God will clearly hold him accountable for evil. This is what the symbolism of the transfer of sin to the scapegoat (Satan) on the Day of Atonement was meant to convey.

3. The Bible is clear that God forgives all sins that are confessed (1 John 1:9). It is also clear that, though forgiven, the record of these sins remains on heaven’s books until the end of time (Acts 3:19–21). Why aren’t the sins blotted out when forgiven?

There is a very good reason. The heavenly judgment is not complete until the judgment of the wicked takes place—immediately prior to their destruction at the end of the world. If God destroyed the records before this final phase of the judgment, He could be accused of a massive cover-up. All records of conduct remain open for viewing until the judgment is completed.

4. Some say the judgment took place at the cross. Others say it takes place at death. Can we be certain the timing of the judgment as shown in this Study Guide is correct?

Yes. So we can be certain regarding the timing of the judgment, God clearly specified it three times in Daniel chapter 7. Notice God’s specific timing; He leaves no room for uncertainty. The divine sequence is stated (verses 8–14, 20–22, 24–27) in this one chapter, as follows:

A. The little horn power—ruled ad 538–1798. (See Study Guide 15.)

B. The judgment—began after 1798 (in 1844) and continues until Jesus’ second advent.

C. God’s new kingdom—established at the end of the judgment.

God makes it clear that the judgment does not take place at death or at the cross, but between 1798 and Jesus’ second coming. Remember that the first angel’s message is in part, “The hour of his judgment has come” (Revelation 14:6, 7). God’s end-time people must be telling the world to give God glory because the final judgment is in session now!

5. What important lessons can we learn from our study of the judgment?

Notice the following five points:

A. God may seem to take a long time before He acts, but His timing is right. No lost person will ever be able to say “I didn’t understand” or “I didn’t know.”

B. Satan and evil of all kinds will ultimately be dealt with by God in the judgment. Since the final judgment is God’s work and He has all the facts, we should stop judging others and let Him do it. It’s a serious matter for us to take over God’s work of judging. It’s usurping His authority.

C. God leaves us all free to decide how we will relate to Him and whom we will serve. However, we must be prepared for serious consequences when we decide contrary to His Word.

D. God loves us so much that He has given us the books of Daniel and Revelation to make these end-time issues clear. Our only safety is in listening to Him and in following His counsel from these great prophetic books.

E. Satan is determined to destroy every one of us. His deceiving strategies are so effective and so convincing that all but a very few will be ensnared. Without Jesus’ resurrection power working daily in our lives to protect us from the devil’s traps, we will be destroyed by Satan.
