Truth Provided Broadcast 9-12-2001
It is with great urgency that I
share this pressing message with you. A seriously profound and
historic milestone in Biblical prophecy was fulfilled
back in 1998 that effects every single man, woman and child on the face of the
Earth! On July 7, 1998 Pope John Paul II released a 104 page
apostolic letter to all Pastors and Christians throughout the
entire world to endorse and embrace Sunday as the Sabbath and the
Lord's Day. The pope also states in his letter that he wants
appropriate legislation to be put in place to ensure all
Christians KEEP SUNDAY HOLY.
"Christians will naturally strive to ensure that "civil
legislation" respects their duty
to keep Sunday holy." -Section 67, "Dies
Domini", July 7, 1998 - emphasis added.
This ministry, as well as many others have been preaching this day
was coming for many years. And now we see this day has arrived!
In the letter entitled ( "Dies Domini" translated = "The Lord's Day")
we see the pope demanding all Christians worldwide to respect and
honor Sunday the FIRST DAY of the week instead of Saturday the
SEVENTH DAY of the week in direct opposition to the Law of God!
Do you understand what the pope is asking you and I to do people?
He is asking us to BREAK the Laws of God and accept MAN'S
TRADITIONS in it's place. Jesus taught us that we should not do
this! Jesus said that we should NOT, "...reject the
commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition." Mark 7:9] This must not be! We must NOT transgress the
Law of God! You must "Beware lest any man spoil you
through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men,
after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." -Colossians
2:8 Jesus taught us to follow HIS example NOT man's! This is
antichristian teaching to do as the pope suggests. This is deadly
to your eternal soul and mine if we transgress and ignore the Law
of God. Jesus said, "If ye love me, keep my
commandments." [John 14:15] It is plainly written in
the Word of God that "..this is the love of God, that we
keep His commandments; and His commandments are not
grievous." [I John 5:3] "And this is love,
that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment,
That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in
it." [2 John 1:6]
This is exactly the same situation
that was forced upon the children of God in Daniel chapter 3. Three believers
were put to the test in the very same
way we see the pope attempting today. They too were asked by "government authority" to
BREAK the commandment of God Almighty in place of laws put forth
by mankind. In this case it was to worship a golden idol built by
King Nebuchadnezzar. We see "Shadrach, Meshach, and
Abed-nego" choosing rather to face a fiery death in a
furnace than to break the Law of God
"If it be [so], our God whom we serve is able to deliver
us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver [us] out
of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king,
that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image
which thou hast set up." Daniel 3:17
As we know, the Almighty Creator did indeed deliver them from the fire of
this furnace in a very graphic way for all to see!
In fact the king was so astonished that he made haste to rush
towards the furnace to see that which the Lord had done! He actually looked
inside the fire to see them walking around without harm. Plus he even made special
mention that he did in fact see a forth person in the fire that appeared to
be the Son of God in verse 25. We also see that later
on, Daniel himself was placed in peril in chapter six.
Daniel chose to be thrown into the lions den to be eaten alive
rather than break the first commandment of God Almighty. And AGAIN,
we see the Almighty and ever living God of all creation delivering
His trusting child from the literal jaws of death! The Lord sent an Angel to SHUT the
lion's mouth, and Daniel was not harmed in the least. ( see Daniel 6:22) The book of
Esther records another law of mankind that was put into effect to
exterminate all of the Lord's people that would not forsake the Law of God
and bow to man's law. Mordecai would not break the commandment of
the Lord and bow down to worship Haman. (see Esther 3:2) And yes,
again, we see the Lord God prevented the death of His people once
again. In fact, we see that Haman himself was exterminated
instead of the children of God! He wanted to hang Mordecai upon the gallows
he built. Instead, it was Haman himself who hung there. I ask, Is the Law of God about to be
placed on the political chopping block once again so as to force the children
of the Lord into making a choice between the Law of God and the laws of
man???
The Word of God states the Beast in Rome,."...shall speak great words against the most High,
...and think to change times and laws:"
Daniel 7:25 Besides
the "Dios Domini" of John Paul II making such a blunt fulfillment
of this prophecy. Is there any other documented historic proof that the popes
of Rome seek to do that very act?
"The authority of the church
could therefore not be bound to the authority of the
Scriptures, because the Church had changed the
Sabbath into Sunday, not by command of Christ,
but by its own authority." Canon and Tradition, p. 263
"Is not every Christian obliged to sanctify Sunday and to
abstain on that day from unnecessary servile work? Is not the
observance of this law among the most prominent of our sacred
duties? But you may read the Bible from Genesis to
Revelation, and you will not find a single line authorizing the
sanctification of Sunday. The Scriptures enforce the
religious observance of Saturday, a day which we
never sanctify." -James Cardinal Gibbons, The Faith of Our
Fathers (1917 ed.), pp. 72, 73.
"Sunday is a Catholic institution and its claim to observance can be
defended only on Catholic principles .... From beginning to end of Scripture there is
not a single passage that warrants the transfer of weekly public worship from the last day of the week to the first."
(Catholic Press, Sydney, Australia, August, 1990.)
Numbers 23:20 states, "Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it." Did you notice how this verse easily proves that NO ONE can change or transfer anything the Almighty makes holy. It is sheer demonic arrogance of mankind to think they can actually make anything holy! Let along REMOVE holiness from that which the Creator has blessed!
The Almighty says in the Old Testament...
Exodus 20:8-10, "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God:
He then says in the New Testament...
Hebrews 4:4,8,9 "For he spake in a certain place of the
seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his
works. For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of
another day. There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God."
Notice the word "REST" that is used here in verse 9...
REST:

1) a keeping sabbath
2) the blessed rest from toils and troubles looked for in the age to come by the true worshippers of God and true Christians
You may be wondering why it is so important that we keep the Sabbath of the Lord? Biblical fact is, the importance of the Sabbath has to deal with "who we will choose to obey." The Lord commands that we worship Him on the Sabbath. The Devil under the authority of the men ruling the Roman Catholic church says we should worship on Sunday. I ask, "Why is the devil attacking the Sabbath?" Why is the devil using the men in the Roman Catholic church to make such a bold and obvious stance against the Sabbath of the Lord? Why are they making it such an issue in the sermons, books, articles, tracts, audio tapes, and videos? And why do you suppose they're doing it NOW?
The Bible speaks of a mark that will be enforced directly before the second coming of Jesus Christ. The word "MARK" as it is expounded upon in the "American Heritage Electronic Thesaurus" comes with numerous variations to the word. For example, the words, "evidence, sign, witness, symbol, indicator, stamp, token, signification, label, seal, brand, and imprint" can all be used alternatively just as easy.
"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their
right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no
man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of
the beast, or the number of his name." Revelation
13:16,17
Why is this mark so important, and what are the actual features
of a mark? Ask yourself this question. Have you ever signed a document to validate or confirm
that it is authentic? Have you ever given your "seal of
approval" on something? Have you ever "marked" an
item of yours as proof of ownership? In government, this is an undeniable
fact of life. As we know, signing a document actually
authenticates that document. Government declarations must always bear a "mark
or an official "seal" of approval on it for validity. But what
are the actuals features of these official marks or seals made by governing
bodies? An official seal or signature must always
have three distinct features:
One can easily see that the "seal" of the Creator God is actually found in the "Sabbath commandment" of the Creator God. It is an acknowledgement of His authority as the Creator. When we keep His Sabbath we are expressing that we recognize, "remember" and worship Him as our Creator. "I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old." [Psalm 77:11] And How should we remember Him? Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
And WHY do we remember Him on this day...?
For [in] six days the LORD made
heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them
[is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the
sabbath day, and hallowed it." Exodus 20:8,11
We remember Him as CREATOR on this day. And when we keep the day HE told us
to remember, we are proclaiming to all the World that the Creator of the World
is our God! As you can see it's no
wonder the devil would try to attack the Sabbath. The devil wants
to be worshipped, recognized as well as proclaimed as a god. Did not Lucifer say in
his heart that he wants to be like the most High? Fact is, it is written, "...O
Lucifer...For thou hast said in thine heart... I
will be like the most High." [Isaiah
14:12,13,14]
Seeing how God has already SEALED the true Sabbath as His Sign, or "mark". The devil's only recourse is to "counterfeit" his own sabbath as a sign, or mark of dominion as a god! The Lord declares unto all creation that if you truly love Him you WILL keep His commandments. [John 14:15] The Sabbath day is proof unto all the World that you worship the Creator God. It His mark of ownership upon you, it His seal of approval upon you, it's evidence of your love for Him as well as evidence of your obediance to your Father in doing that which is written. The Devil does the same thing, only he seeks to place his own day as well as his own laws in place of the one the Lord set as the "seal, "sign" and "mark" of ownership upon you. In Exodus 31:13 we see the Lord God telling us that, "Verily my Sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations." This verse allows us to realize why the devil's been working so hard at hiding the truth about the Sabbath. It's God's sign! It's God's seal of approval! It's God's mark of ownership! Some will say that this is only for the Jews that were being spoken to in Exodus 31:13. Yet New Testament fact is...
Romans 9:6-8, "Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed."
Biblical fact is, "...if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." -Galatians 3:29
I found the easiest way to detect the mark of the beast is to find out what the seal of God is, then you'll know the "mark" is the exact counterfit of it. It's no different than a counterfit $20 dollar bill. It looks like the real thing, but when put under careful consideration, one can see the difference between that counterfit and the original. When one with "understanding" as to the features of the "original" look upon the "counterfit," it is made plain.
"And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having
the seal of the living God:
and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was
given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth,
neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have
sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads."
Revelation 7:2,3
The forehead represents the
mind here. It is bluntly confirmed in Hebrews
10:16 where it says, "This is the covenant that I will make with them after
those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their
minds will I write them;" Psychologists who map the human brain tell us that the
frontal lobe of the cerebrum, [the forehead] is where functions
like decisions, judgments, and free will are made. So, it's
obvious that we are sealed by God when we make the free will
decision to accept Jesus as our Savior and His Word as Truth. This then causes our
lives to be affected by His doctrine, teachings, His Word, and most
important, His COMMANDMENTS. [See 2Cor 3:3 &
Heb 8:10 & Heb 10:16]
The Beast however, will look to place his law in the hands and foreheads of those he controls. And the only way to do that is by force.
"And he had power to give life unto the image of the
beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause
that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should
be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and
poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in
their foreheads And that no man might buy or sell, save he that
had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his
name." Revelation 13:15-17
In this verse we now see the mark of the beast being received in
the forehead AND in the hand! As we know, Jesus will never force
His will upon His children. On the contrary, here it is evident
the beast will. Since we understand that making
a decision to accept Jesus as Savior, and accepting His
teachings 100% which includes His Law, is the same as being sealed or marked in the forehead
by Jesus as one who is saved, or "marked" with a "seal"
of approval by the Almighty ever living Creator. We must also understand, that
accepting the doctrines, teachings, or traditions of the Roman
Catholic church that is directed by men, directed by Satan or any other churches that follow these beliefs,
would mean we accepted the mark of the beast IN the forehead. Also
understand there will be those that aren't Catholic or even
Christian. But they will do as the beast commands for fear of
death, or loss of their livelihood from not being able to buy or
sell anything unless he or she had the mark. (The hand represents "work"
Ecclesiates 9:10) Which is bluntly making the decision to accept the demands of the beast
over and above the Commandments of the Lord. These
will be those who receive the mark in the right hand because they were
forced against their will. They won't want to loose their lively-hood in which
the "buy and sell" global boycott upon them will cause. That will
eventually force many of them to go along with the laws of the beast, ESPECIALLY
the rich who have never learned to trust the Lord. The true Catholic or any other
Christian that accepts these unbiblical "doctrines of men"
will have received the mark in the forehead because they already
made the free will decision that their church is correct in
replacing Scriptures to for "traditions of man."
Summing it up... If you receive the "mark" by choice,
this means you've made the free will decision that the
"Traditions of man" are correct, therefore you will be
marked in the forehead. If you're forced to receive the mark by
not being able to buy or sell, it will be that you're marked
"in the right hand." REMEMBER, "For whosoever
will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his
life for my sake shall find it." [Matthew 16:25]. When
it comes to the mark of the beast. Without realizing, the
Catholic church makes both a prophetic and blasphemous boast as
well as undeniable LINK by the following confession.
"Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change (Saturday Sabbath to Sunday) was her act... And the act is a MARK of her ecclesiastical authority in religious things." H.F. Thomas, Chancellor of Cardinal Gibbons.
"Sunday is our MARK of authority. . .the church is
above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact" Catholic
Record of London, Ontario Sept 1,1923.
So, if the prophecy is correct in saying that Sunday keeping is
acceptance of the authoritative MARK OF THE BEAST. And the
Scriptures verify that God says... "my Sabbaths ye shall
keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your
generations" [Exodus 31:18] Plus we also understand
that the words: SIGN... MARK... SEAL... ARE ALL SYNONYMOUS. I
challenge everyone listening to this broadcast to keep their eyes open
and watch as God's final prophecies come to be! The Almighty is
no dime store psychic! It's
going to happen!
We now have Scriptural facts the Sabbath is God's sign, seal, and
mark. And Sunday is the "sign, seal, or mark of the beast.
The Catholic church even admits Sunday keeping is her
MARK.
So, What's next? The devil will need to get people to worship as
he stipulates so he can enforce his mark of authority. Do you
suppose the beast, under the camouflage of the Roman Catholic
church, will be able to make good on its plans? Do you suppose
the church is busy making sure it's views are made into law?
"This organization proposes in every possible way to aid in preserving
Sunday as a civil institution. Our national security
requires the active support of all good citizens in the
maintenance of our American Sabbath. Sunday laws must be enforced." Quoted-
"principles contained in the Constitution" (then called
the American Sabbath Union), The Lord's Day Alliance, Twenty
fifth Report (1913), p6.
"In the fourth and fifth centuries, Sunday shows and Sunday
theaters, it was complained, hindered the "devotion of the
faithful," because many of the members attended them in
preference to the church services. The church, therefore, demanded
that the state interfere, and promote Sunday
observance by law. "In this way, " Says
Neander "the church received help from the state for the
furtherance of her ends." This union of church and state
served to establish the Papacy in power. A similar course pursued
now will produce the same results." -AUGUSTUS NEANDER,
General History of the Christian Religion and the Church, Torey
translation (3rd American ed.), vol. 2, pp. 300,301
The Catholic church has been attempting to persuade the U.S. Government for many years to make into law the observance of the first day of the week as their Sabbath. Is this something that can become Law of the Land ?
In the U.S., Sunday is not only a
religious holiday but is also the only common-law holiday

The fact is, in 1962 the United
States of America did just that under the administration of its FIRST
Roman Catholic President, John F. Kennedy. They made
strict observation of Sunday into LAW! All
government agencies are officially CLOSED on Sunday's. Many
secular business's followed suit soon after. This also happens to
be the year President John F. Kennedy outlawed prayer in schools.
The leaders of the Catholic church under the direction of the devil have played
their part to a "T". The oppressing
thing is, the devil has had one advantage
over us mortal beings. He has had the advantage of ancient history.
Simple fact is, the beast has been able to make his inventions in
the Catholic church look sacred simply because they were enacted
long before any of us were born. And as is always the case, many
of us feel that the older the tradition the more accepted they
must be as holy. Rather cunning lie isn't it?
Revelation 13:14-15, "And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed."
SPEAK = LEGISLATION and CAUSE = ENFORCEMENT
The passing of the Sunday Law in 1962 is a herald unto all the World that the lamb horned beast of Revelation (USA) is indeed capable of doing exactly as prophecy declared it could do. Keep in mind, the law was passed in 1962, but has it ever been enforced on man? No it hasn't. It has merely been an preamble of things to come. Is the Pope NOW asking for SUNDAY LAWS from our Government TO BE ENFORCED? Is the pope looking to SPEAK laws into place so that it can ENFORCE that which is passed? Is the Roman Catholic Vatican looking to make the United States of America a carbon copy of itself? Is the lamb horned beast of Revelation, the USA about to enforce religious observance? Is the USA going to become an IMAGE OF THE BEAST and become a church and state conglomorate just like the Vatican?
I don't have time in this broadcast to share all the articles pertaining to the laws being passed and lobbied concerning this prophetic event. However, the next time you are on the inter net, go to the Rhode Island House of Representatives website. Look up BILL # 98H8949 and you will see that as of January 1, 1999 it has been against the law to work on Sundays without a work permit.

This is a quote from a Nazarene
magazine called Newswatch. In its 1994 November/December issue, 4-5, it read,
"The French magazine, Foy et Rai, reported from the United Nations
Organization in Geneva, Switzerland, that plans are worked out to dissolve the
UNO to make way for a World Tribunal. . . . This project and this plan provides
for a total unification of church and state, and also provides for a single
form of worship. The appointed day for all people will be Sunday. The
number received by the people will promise the right to buy or sell.
"At the end of this statement, a Christian rose and asked the speaker,
'What happens to the minorities who will not accept this plan?' The Christian
was told, 'Their number will be canceled with a black line and they will be
deprived of the right to buy or sell and will thus be forced to destruction.'

IT'S HAPPENING
PEOPLE!!! RIGHT NOW!
When
this law goes into effect nationwide, you will understand what Revelation
13:15 speaks of. The Image of the Beast will have been given the
prophetic life it needs to be enforced! The United States of America will become
a duplicate image of the Vatican in Rome! It will be a Church and State conglomorate,
just like the Vatican is the Government of Rome as well as the Roman Catholic
church. It will have the
Authority of the Law of the Land it requires to be quickened, and
it will then be implemented as once before in the year 1610 upon all citizens. All
that is needed now is the prophetic "disaster" whether
it be "Financial, Natural, or Social" makes no
difference. All that the Beast needs is this disaster to occur.
He awaits this so that he can proclaim that "We all need
to get right with God to prevent further disasters, we MUST keep
His "Sunday" Sabbath or die!" Then we will
see what they saw in the year 1610 once again! You will see what
Daniel and his friends saw. Will you choose to live? Or will you
die?
1610ad Reveals...
"Every man and woman shall repair in the morning to the
divine service and sermons preached upon the Sabbath (Sunday),
and in the afternoon to divine service, and catechizing, upon pain
for the first fault to lose their provision and the allowance for
the whole week following; for the second, to lose the said
allowance and also be whipped; and for the third to suffer death.!" -Laws, and Orders, Divine, Politique, &

My friends, the Latter Rain is increasing, the children of the Lord will proclaim the Truth of the Three Angels of Revelation 14:9-12. Miraculous signs will be seen by all confirming that which they preach is Truth! All those that will hear and believe WILL, and then the plagues of Revelation will fall, Jesus Christ will return for all those that decided to "Obey God rather than man", [Acts 5:29] And the great and dreadful day of the Lord will become reality! "So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty." [James 2:12] Hear and be blessed! ALL are JUDGED by the Ten Commandments! Now do you understand WHY the Devil would have laws enacted that would have you break God's Law so openly?
To put it all in a nutshell, we need to ask four simple questions...
Revelation 14:9, "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,"
Who is this verse speaking of? The wicked who receive the mark of the beast, right?
Revelation 14:10, "The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:"
Who is this verse speaking of? The wicked who receive the mark of the beast, right?
Revelation 14:11, "And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name."
Who is this verse speaking of? The wicked who receive the mark of the beast, right?
Revelation 14:12, "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."
Who is this verse speaking of? The saved who do NOT receive the mark of the beast, right? Did you notice what occurred? It is stating in verses 9, 10, & 11 the just deserts of those that receive the mark of the beast. And in verse 12 it declares saints in the time the mark of the beast is being enforced are those that KEEP THE TEN COMMANDMENTS AND HAVE THE FAITH OF JESUS! And as you have just learned in this tract, the Roman Catholic church has declared war on the Ten Commandments as well as the faith in Jesus. They do so to prevent YOU from knowing this Biblical fact. It has to do with the MARK OF THE BEAST! That's why they are so adamant in hiding it from you. Fact is, Revelation 14:12 is giving two major conditions for NOT receiving the Mark of the Beast isn't it? It is defining those that keep His commandments along with having the faith in Jesus as SAINTS correct?
