Few could ever imagine the idea but the Bible says the destiny of those living at the close of earth's history will decide their fate based on choosing to worship the Creator of all living things or going along with the laws of mankind for the peace of mankind. There will only be two sides to this issue.
Interestingly enough, in and around the year 1888 there was a bill presented to the congress of the United States (second beast of Revelation 13) to enforce or honor the first day of the week. This was known as the 'Blair Bill'. This was the type of what Jesus referred to as 'when you see the armies encompassing' know that it is near. This was the antitype of the first siege and a warning to all watching to flee and prepare for the crisis. Few listened.
Now in 2011, it is that same group who are picking up the pace to get this Lord's day agenda pushed into congress. Based in Atlanta, Georgia the Lord's Day Alliance is built to restore society's view of the first day of the week or what they call 'the Sabbath'. I want to quote from their most recent journal:
from the section:
Summary of Implications
for Sabbath observance today- LINK TO FULL MAGAZINE
The importance of Deuteronomy is that it makes clear that the law was never intended to be a mechani- cal list of inflexible rules. Rather, it provides entry into the whole matter of true piety and true morality. It pro- mulgates a worldview encompassing what is entailed in an appropriate approach to God and what is entailed in an appropriate treatment of and relationship to one^aEURTMs neighbor. It is easy to see why Jesus endorsed the sum- mary of the law offered by the Jewish lawyer: ^aEURoe ^aEUR~Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind,^aEURTM and, ^aEUR~Love your neighbor as yourself^aEURTM ^aEUR (Luke 10:27).
Sabbath observance plays a significant role in this endeavor. If we have to be reminded, commanded, or coerced to observe it, it ceases to serve its function.
Interestingly enough this sounds correct yet it is not their true agenda. What was then known as the 'American Sabbath Union' is now known as the Lord's Day Alliance.
Another thing that really threw me off was how the article quoted the president of the Seventh-day Adventist Seminary Neils-Erik Andreasen. Interesting.
Why is this happening?
Because Lucifer was kicked out of heaven because he declared that God's Law was arbitrary and not needing to be kept for true peace. The truth is that the last great conspiracy to come on the world will be Lucifer demanding a day of worship honoring him rather than the Creator on His Seventh-day Sabbath. You can be a Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim and keep the other 9 commandments in essence but not the 4th.
The following is from my friend that shared this all with me:
So the Sunday Alliance which is the same group behind the Blair bill in 1888, first time a national Sunday Laws was attempted (first siege) is getting ready to mount the second siege of Jerusalem (this is in prophecy ask me if study^A needed). ^A The quote from their website makes the timing clear and we know prophetically this will happen. ^A Interestingly^A the same group that led the charge the last time is mounting the charge again. ^A Time is short.
"Today, The Lord's Day Alliance^A stands on the edge of a great opportunity to proclaim the message of the Sabbath (SUNDAY), a message of spiritual renewal and personal well being, in this fast-paced 24/7, 21st century American culture."
Here are some recent quotes from the Roman Catholic Church:
"Sunday is an obligation for all the faithful which brings authentic freedom enabling them to live each day, that it is the Lord's day, that it is a day to be sanctified, and those who do not keep it suffer the loss of an authentic sense of Christian freedom and the loss of being the children of God, that Sunday is the primordial holy day and is meant to be kept holy, a day of rest from work,^A which hopefully will also be recognized by civil society by law."(Sacramentum Caritatis: Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation on the Eucharist as the Source and Summit of the Church's Life and Mission, Given by Pope Benedict XVI in Rome, at Saint Peter's, February 22, 2007, the Feast of the Chair of Peter.)
"Without the Lord's day,^A we cannot live, that meeting with the Lord only occurs on the specific day of Sunday, that life does not flourish without Sunday, and that Sunday is a day of rest, of freedom and equality^A for all the world." (Eucharistic Celebration Homily of Pope Benedict XVI, Saint Stephen's Cathedral, Vienna, Sunday, September 9, 2007.)
"Encouraged America to exercise its leadership within the international community based on the common moral law [Sunday holiness]."(Address of Pope Benedict XVI to H.E. Mrs. Mary Ann Glendon, New Ambassador of the United States of America to the Holy See, Friday, February 29, 2008.)
"The world has greater need of hope for peace, justice and freedom, which can never be delivered without^A obedience to the law of God [Sunday holiness]."(Video-Message of the Pope Benedict XVI to Catholics and People of the United States of America on the Occasion of the Upcoming Apostolic Journey, April 15-21, 2008.)
The last thing to add to the pertinence of the moment is the recent call of the Vatican to establish a global political authority that could oversee a new global monetary system.
