A Message for the Whole World—The vision that Christ presented to John, presenting the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, is to be definitely proclaimed to all nations, people, and tongues. The churches, represented by Babylon, are represented as having fallen from their spiritual state to become a persecuting power against those who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. To John this persecuting power is represented as having horns like a lamb, but as speaking like a dragon.—Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers, 117 (1896). {Ev 197.2}

Et budskab til hele verden - Synet som Kristus overbragte til Johannes, overbringer Guds bud og troen på Jesus, skal endeligt forkyndes til alle nationer, folkeslag, og tungemål. Menighederne, fremstillet ved Babylon, er fremstillet som faldne fra deres åndelige oplysning for at blive en forfølgende kraft mod dem der holder Guds bud og har Jesu Kristi vidnesbyrd. Hos Johannes er denne forfølgende kraft vist med horn ligesom et lam, men taler ligesom en drage. - Vidnesbyrd til prædikanter s. 117. (1896)
