| 1MB | Rev 14:12 | Notice the contrast between those who receive the mark of the beast and those who keep God’s commandments. |
| 2MB | Mat 15:1-9 | Those Who Put The Traditions Of Man Over The Commandments Of God, Worship God In Vain. If Satan Can Get Us To Accept Mans Tradition Over God’s commands he will have won our allegiance. |
| 3MB | Deut. 6:6,8 | God’s commands are on the hand and forehead. |
| 4MB | Exo 13:9 | This is not a literal mark, but the observance of His commands. The forehead- believe. The hand- obey. |
| 5MB | Exo 31:12 | The Sabbath is singled out as God’s special mark or sign. |
| 6MB |
1John 2:3-6 |
Obedience to God’s commands shows who truly believe in Him. |
| 7MB | Daniel 7:25 |
--The Antichrist, Would Try To Change God’s
Times And Law. This Was Attempted By The Roman church when they claimed the
authority to change the Sabbath from the 7th day of the week to the 1st. --C. F. Thomas said, and notice the language, " Of course the Catholic Church claims that the change {Sabbath to Sunday] and that change is the mark of her ecclesiastical power and authority in religious matters." --If obedience to God’s Sabbath is a special mark of allegiance to God, then what would be the counterfeit to God’s mark? Sunday allegiance. |
| 8MB | Rev 13:2 | The Dragon gave the beast his power and authority. To acknowledge that authority is to worship the beast. |
| 9MB | Rev 13:11,12 | Protestant America (False Prophet) is the only Christian nation coming into power in a quiet part of the earth (opposed to the water) after the deadly wound in 1798 . |
| 10MB |
Rev 13:15-17 |
The False Prophet will unite with Rome to force all to demonstrate their allegiance to the beast with Sunday legislation enforced by an economic boycott and a death decree. John Paul II has called for Sunday legislation in his papal letter, "Dies Domini," 31 May 1998 |
| 11MB | Mat 12:8 | Jesus claimed to be the Lord of the Sabbath. Are you willing to crown him Lord of the Sabbath in your life? |
|
Special Note: It is not a sin to worship on Sunday. We should worship God every day. The problem arises when we are forced by law to break the Sabbath and keep holy Sunday. Those who have observed Sunday out of ignorance are not guilty of breaking the law. "Anyone who knows the good he ought to do and does not do it, sins." James 4:17 |
