Timely Revelation
for the coming judgment
This document provides new understanding about the everlasting covenant and the gospel of Christ; it is now freely available here, for all people of the world. Jesus kept the Sabbath and tells us to keep the Sabbath. Paul kept the Sabbath and told us to keep the Sabbath. The Sabbath was kept by the whole Christian church in Paul’s day, and he told us so, but the translation hid it from us. You are Israel; god didn’t make a covenant with Christians, he made covenants with Israel, and if you are in any covenant with god it can only mean that you have been grafted into Israel; the Ten Commandments shall never pass away, they apply to you right now; the fourth commandment requires you to observe the Sabbath as a sign that you entered into covenant with him; that you trust him to sanctify you, which is the opposite of the old covenant, where we promised we would do things; the new covenant is god promising us that he is able to sanctify us; there are many quotes from the bible where Jesus said to keep these commandments, you must be sanctified to live with him; your sanctification process, while on Earth, depends on you entering into a covenant with him according to the 10 Commandments; the lynch pin is the sign between god and man, the Sabbath; no matter how badly you fail, god is able to complete your sanctification after you die, but you must observe the Sabbath while on Earth in order to enter into the covenant so that it can provide safety for you in the time of tribulation that is coming soon, which you will go through, you shall not escape it unless you die before it comes; all of god’s covenants have included the two promises of mercy and restoration, which are justification and sanctification; restoration is complete after justification and sanctification, as depicted by the pattern in the sanctuary. I'll show you how Christian churches have been deceived into a dangerous condition for the coming tribulation; no one has received the mark of the beast, but it's coming; and you need the Seal of God to protect you during the tribulation, which is placed on your forehead by you keeping the Sabbath.
All Truth is God's Truth
from me, and others, to you
Forgive me for repeating truth without citing enough references, for I learned this by hearsay, a lifetime of study, documentaries, and various ways, as I was not present at the time to witness it for myself. If you believe you deserve to be cited for any of this, please send me a message and I will be happy to do so. Some of you have been more instrumental than others, in my enlightenment, and I wish you had provided better opportunity for me to give you credit. While I do paste verses from the KJV bible directly in the text, with the verse number, and sometimes cite the source right where it is used in the text, in many cases, I can only offer to you that which I believe, not why I believe it, nor point to a source for you to verify it. Don't take my word for it, do your own verification and fact-checking; draw your own conclusions; your path in life depends upon it. I'm not here to sell you anything, and I do not make any money from this message.
I'm Christian, I've been shown and I am here to freely deliver this message to you and to the whole world. In one sense, the public and free publication of this message is available to the whole world, anyone with an internet connection and a browser, can read this message. It is available in the whole world. That is a small step away from it being read in each of the 197 nations of the world, and if someone in each of those countries preaches it to their country, it would satisfy the prophecy that the everlasting gospel be preached in the entire world before the soon return of Christ. Today, this prophecy is fulfilled in your reading, for your life, in your part of the world. I'm highly reverent of God, and I would be mortified to think I have deceived you because I believe that I have to answer to God for every word I say, and especially for leading anyone astray. I do not copyright this text; I have no claim on it. Please preach it to the world.
I’m going to challenge you, and you’re likely to be changed, regardless of what you choose to believe. The overriding message here is that your salvation is a separate issue from the mark of the beast; they are related to separate promises; the promise of mercy from judgment in your salvation, and the promise of your sanctification to restore you to god; the papacy is the little horn in prophecy who perverted the your path to redemption, which is your justification and sanctification; the whole Christian church world was deceived into abandoning god's eternal law, the ten commandments; you're called out of the counterfeit church, and you must choose the seal of god before the door closes. This is the most shocking story you have ever heard, or ever will hear, until you meet the creator who created you, face to face, to be judged. Your soul lives forever. Everyone should fear the lord because he determines where you shall spend eternity; with him, or not.
After researching bibles
I use the KJV because it is the closest to direct translation from Greek and Hebrew
I think every verse I included here is pulled from the KJV, and no spellcheking or modifications were applied to it. If I had time to do my own translating, from Greek and Hebrew, I would do that.
A little history about how the world got to where we are today
You need to know where you came from in order to provide you with contextual meaning from which to gain perspective on your future. How did you get here?
In the dark ages
Governments and the Roman Catholic Church rigidly controlled Europe with dogma, exercising power over the people, dictating everyday life on every level. Basically, the church held sway over much of the world, for 1500 years during the Middle Ages, where the Catholic Church squashed science and any thoughts that threatened to take power from the church, and they were willing to eradicate all opposition by death. The oppressed people eventually rebelled, rejected the church and its perverted ways, resulting in the French revolution. Like throwing the baby out with the bathwater, the age of enlightenment took root, and they enshrined the Goddess of Reason, teaching atheism to the masses in Note dame Cathedral. The ensuing reign of terror persecuted French Christians, bibles were burned, and Christians were killed, setting the stage for the theory of evolution, and a life without the need for god, and the birth of uniformitarianism.
Uniformitarianism
Uniformitarianism is a school of thought that says all things have continued at the same rate since the beginning of time. That means that if we see a process today that takes a million years, then it must be true that the same process must have always taken a million years. The thought is ok for a beginning theory, but it doesn't hold water, and cannot be proved to be true. It flies in the face of an opposing theory, that the flood event catastrophically changed the world in a short period of time.
The flood
There is evidence all over the world for a cataclysmic flood, with identical layers found in identically timed layers of rock. The reason that the Grand Canyon has perfectly striped layers with no evidence of erosion in them is because the process did not take place over millions of years, it was a rapid event. The fossils found in the layers are exactly what one would expect to find for water setting, with bottom feeders found at the bottom, and higher form of life going up through the layers, just like they died and settled. There are massive salt deposits along coastlines that clearly had to be deposited in a short time frame, and plenty of other geologic evidence that has been deliberately misinterpreted to fit the godless world view, which has prevailed since the age of enlightenment began. There is much that can be said here, but that is not my mission. Do your own research.
The truth is attacked by a counterfeit message
With uniformitarianism, and the age of enlightenment, come Darwinism, Ecumenism, Communism, and Spiritualism. All of them try to remove god from the world view. By contrast, the truth is found in Catastrophism, which is the flood, the everlasting gospel, the judgment hour, the cleansing of the sanctuary, the Sabbath, and worshiping the creator. At this critical time in history, the counterfeit message launches a direct assault on the truth, all of these occur about the same time prophecy said the sanctuary in heaven will be cleansed, when the warning message for the end time goes out, when the judgment hour for the end of days begins. The deceiver is working overtime, and the timing is not a coincidence.
Natural selection
the rise of Darwinism
Charles Lyell wrote a book that Charles Darwin had with him on the island of Galapagos, which proclaimed these long geologic processes in uniformitarianism as fact. Charles Darwin finds variations of finches on the island, equates their variations to these processes and wrote the Origin of Species, applying the long geologic processes to biologic processes, and calls it natural selection, a mechanism by which variation in species does not need a creator.
Chronological Events
Here’s a timeline of only a few significant historical events for you to read as a reference for the remainder of the discussion. I picked these out in an hour or so, and I never got back to complete the reading of the list. In many of them, the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church in Rome, directly issues decrees, called Papal bulls, to repeatedly defile the church, those and other events listed in chronological order, are astonishing:
- 1229 pope Gregory IX, forbid laymen from reading the bible for themselves, and the punishment for violating it was death.
- 1233 pope Gregory IX, marks the start of the Inquisition by the Church.
- 1240 the same Gregory IX ordered all Jewish books in Castile to be seized on first Saturday in Lent while Jews were in synagogue.
- 1244 pope Innocent IV ordered the Talmud to be burned.
- 1245 pope Innocent IV declared the primacy of the Roman Church over all churches.
- 1252 pope Innocent IV authorizes the use of torture for eliciting confessions from heretics during the Inquisition and executing relapsed heretics by burning them alive.
- 1265 pope Clement IV stated that appointments to all benefices were a papal prerogative.
- 1267 pope Clement IV legally barred Christians from converting to Judaism.
- 1295 pope declared that he alone has the right to change god's law.
- 1299 pope Boniface VIII declares Jews be included among persons who might be denounced to the Inquisition without the name of the accuser being revealed.
- 1302 pope Boniface VIII declares that there is no salvation outside the Roman Catholic church. Yes, that is a papal decree, and as far as I know, it has never been rescinded.
- 1343 pope Clement VI justified papal power to issue indulgences. You get to pay money to the pope to be cleansed of your sins.
- 1384 John Wycliffe translated the bible into their common language so everyone could read it for themselves.
- 1409 pope Alexander V orders the suppression of the distribution of all the translated bibles of John Wycliffe in Bohemia.
- 1423 pope Martin V renews the law requiring Jews to wear badge, a precursor to Nazi Germany.
- 1460 pope Pius II prohibits any appealing of a papal judgment.
- 1470 pope Paul II declared that a Jubilee would take place every 25 years, in direct conflict with God's declaration that a Jubilee is every 50 years. This is a fulfilled prophecy: from Dan 7:8 "there came up among them another little horn." Dan 7:25 "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws." You think all of that prophecy is for the future, but a great deal has already come to pass.
- 1517 Martin Luther started the Protestant Reformation and founded of the Lutheran church to restore Christ's sacrifice as sufficient.
- 1520 pope Leo X demanded that Martin Luther retract 41 of his 95 theses. pope uses papal decree to attack Martin Luther for saying that the sacrifice of Christ was sufficient to save man.
- 1521 pope Leo X excommunicates Martin Luther, seemingly expressing, How dare you try to restore the sanctuary, which I have defiled by decree?
- 1541 John Calvin founded the Presbyterian church with a burden for prayer.
- 1559 pope Paul IV decrees that only Catholics can be elected Pope.
- 1564 pope Pius IV declared the rules for forbidding books.
- 1567 pope Pius V orders all Jews to sell all property in Papal States.
- 1570 pope Pius V excommunicates Queen Elizabeth I of England, declares her a heretic, and releases her subjects from any allegiance to her. Further, commanded all nobles, subjects, peoples to not obey her orders, mandates and laws. Those who shall act to the contrary are also excommunicated.
- 1582 pope Gregory XIII replaces the Julian calendar with a new calendar called the Gregorian calendar, which is used in most countries today. The birth date of Christ was changed. Again, direct fulfillment of prophecy in Dan 7:25 "to change times and laws."
- 1608 John Smyth formed the first Baptist church, saying an accountable person is to be submerged.
- 1650 Seventh-day Baptists & Seventh-day Adventists founded to follow the original 10 commandments as god's law, which keeps the Sabbath.
- 1715 to 1789 the Age of Enlightenment prepared the way for false doctrine to remove god and attack the truth.
- 1742 John Wesley founded the Methodist church, said the lay-evangelist is given to let your light shine.
- 1820 Mormons: Joseph Smith, Jr. said he received a vision, basically discredited God's judgment by saying they become gods.
- 1844 the same year that was prophesied that the sanctuary in heaven was to be cleansed, many counterfeit doctrines attacked the truth.
- 1844 Darwinism: Charles sent his first draft to members of the scientific community.
- 1844 Ecumenism: look at all of these in the same year.
- 1844 Communism: this year marked the cleansing of the sanctuary.
- 1844 Spiritualism: and this year marked the end of the 2300 year prophecy for the sanctuary being trodden under foot.
- 1848 Kate and Margaret Fox, of Hydesville, New York, reported that they had made contact with a spirit, discrediting God's view on the dead.
- 1859 Charles Darwin published his theory of evolution in "On the Origin of Species", discredited creation having a creator.
- 1879 Christian Science says no need for salvation, god is in all of us.
- 1893 the Roman Catholic Church distributed a pamphlet, that eventually became a book named "Rome's Challenge, Why do protestants keep Sunday"
There is so much more that I could add to that list of actual historical events. I provided the link below in case you wanted to look. For now, I am resting with this list, so that this message can begin to go out to the world.

Martin Luther's 95 Theses
Translated from his ORIGINAL LATIN STATEMENT OF 31 OCTOBER 1517
God always makes a way and he communicates it
Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Let's start at the beginning
God set aside the seventh day for himself
Gen 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Which of these 10 commandments is no longer valid?
Deu 5:5
- 1) You shall have no other gods before Me.
- 2) You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in the heavens above, on the earth below, or in the waters beneath. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on their children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing loving devotion to a thousand generations of those who love Me and keep My commandments.
- 3) You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not leave anyone unpunished who takes His name in vain.
- 4) Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant or livestock, nor the foreigner within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.
- 5) Honor your father and mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.
- 6) You shall not murder.
- 7) You shall not commit adultery.
- 8) You shall not steal.
- 9) You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
- 10) You shall not coveth your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, or his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
Which of those are you done with?
Are you prepared to name one and tell God that it is no longer his law? That it no longer applies to your life today? I'm here to document how most of the Christian church world is standing on a lie, a very good lie, a very complicated lie, from the lips of the only one capable of such a lie.
Look at the words of Jesus in the New Testament about the importance of the law
he lists the law first, weighted by importance in the transfer of knowledge
Matt 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
With whom did god make the old and new covenants?
If you are in the new covenant, you are Israel
God made the old and new covenants with Israel, not with Christians. The new covenant, to be saved by faith in the blood of Jesus, was made with Israel. The new covenant with Israel writes the same Old Testament laws on the hearts of God's people in the New Testament. If you are in covenant with god, you are Israel; if you have been grafted into the tree, you are part of the tree, and everything he said about the tree is about you, Israel.
The new covenant, a different covenant with the same Old Testament Law
God's law that has not changed, but is now written in the hearts of God's people
Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
God's law, he calls it "my law", has not changed, it cannot change
he cannot change, he is bound by his word, which will never return void
Matt 5:17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.
Again, it comes from the mouth of your lord
Jesus said, "till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." This isn't a veiled reference and it's not ambiguous; they are the words of Jesus quoted in the New Testament. So, then who, by what authority, has any man changed God's law? Jesus said "by no means". Who wants to tell Jesus that you changed the law of God? I'm going to show you how the church changed the law of god, such that you and me and the whole church world was deceived by the enemy, and the time has come to wake up the elect with the truth. Wait until you hear the whole story. First, let's look at what the lord said about keeping the Sabbath.
The prophet Isaiah declares that the lord called the Sabbath his holy day
Is 58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the Sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Jews rebelled in Egypt and angered the lord
Ez 20:19 I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; And hallow my Sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God. Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my Sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
Jesus continually went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day
Luke 4:14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all. And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to read. And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Jesus said the law, god's law, the 10 commandments, shall never pass away
Matt 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Paul honored the Sabbath
Acts 13:13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem. But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down. And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on. Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
Paul preached to gentiles on the Sabbath
Acts 14:42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath. Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. And the next Sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
Paul prays on the Sabbath
Acts 16:6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not. And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas. And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them. Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days. And on the Sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.
Paul preaches on three consecutive Sabbaths
Acts 17:1 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews: And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three Sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ. And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.
Paul preaches in the synagogue every Sabbath in Corinth
Acts 18:1 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth; And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers. And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
Acts 18:11 So Paul stayed for a year and a half, teaching the word of God among the Corinthians.
New Testament instruction to keep the Sabbath
Heb 4:1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. 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. And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. 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. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
Jesus tells us to keep his commandments
and Jesus keeps the commandments from his father
John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
Everyone in covenant with the Lord needs to keep his commandments
for they are righteousness
The righteousness of god is the gospel of Christ. Noah preached righteousness, and the same message applies to us in the end of days. We are once again living in the hour of judgment, and the same warning message that Noah preached applies to us. This gospel must be delivered to everyone in the world for the purpose of giving everyone a chance to decide for themselves. You must choose who you will serve; the decision is yours, right now. You will never again be able to say, Lord, I didn't know.
Did grace replace the law?
Let's look more closely at Paul's letters to the churches
Just to get you thinking, let's look at two extreme views that we know do not yield fruit. If you're only guiding precept is that you're no longer under Law, but under grace, and you only follow what the spirit leads, without regard to the 10 Commandments, then you undoubtedly experience a high degree of sinful living because without standards, lessons are learned at a snail's pace, if ever. I've known plenty of you; I collected my own empirical evidence, I saw it for myself, even in myself. At the opposite end of the spectrum is the error of legalism that tries to produce godliness by keeping some list of rules and regulations. God was smart enough not to make either of those his plan. We can't work ourselves into being saved or sanctified. To put this paragraph into perspective, I'd call it hearsay for the purpose of getting you to see the issue. Feel free to discount its accuracy, for it's not the argument I present as proof.
I'm going to present a more refined interpretation than has commonly been touted by much of Christianity, regarding Paul's writings. Some of what I'm about to say is new revelation for us in this time because god planned it that way. To frame this conversation, I want to put emphasis where it belongs; justification is a separate process from sanctification. By that I mean that no one is immediately perfected in their character the moment they are saved. Justification occurs when you believe; Sanctification is the renewing of your mind, which is a process that continues until you die. Paul focuses heavily on justification, and unfortunately frequently uses the word righteousness. Righteousness and holiness are aspired to in the process of sanctification; you do not instantly become perfected in your character when you first believe that the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross is sufficient to pay for your sins. Those two topics are handled in different ways by god; he immediately hands you justification, and he promises you eventual sanctification. If they were the same thing, then Paul would not be struggling with it, and neither would you.
Let me be clear, god's law cannot sanctify you; the 10 Commandments cannot sanctify you. Sanctification is god's job, just like justification is god's job. However, the 10 Commandments, which are eternal, provide you with an opportunity to partner with god now, while you live on Earth, so that he can sanctify you now. If you obey the 10 Commandments, like Jesus said to do, and observe the Sabbath, like Jesus did, then god takes that as a sign, between you and him, that you are in covenant with him, you trust him to sanctify you, and you commit to cooperating with him in his effort to sanctify you. You are showing a loving devotion when you keep the 10 Commandments; his Commandments. God never changed his mind about that.
Are things different after Christ's resurrection? No they are not. After the resurrection, you have the price paid for your sin, but nothing Jesus said was invalidated. Everything Jesus did while on Earth is still valid for us today, and that included going to the synagogue on the Sabbath; Jesus observed the Sabbath because it was in the 10 Commandments. Jesus did not observe the laws of men; he healed people on the Sabbath, and was falsely accused of breaking the Sabbath Commandment.
I called attention to many actions of the popes, but the popes are just men and they can be deceived, so their being turned can be less about being conscious workers of evil, and more about being fallible men, who judge relatively, and to some degree, advance their thoughts along with the predominant thoughts of the day. Basically, they are affected by their environment, to some degree, just like the rest of us; the conversation of the day is common to many. The enemy used them because they were in a position to affect the changes that he needed. I do not know what the deceptions were that he used to accomplish this thing; I only see the deception as the outcome. We aren't trying to condemn them; we're tracing how the whole world got to where we are today so that we can all come out of the false doctrine. I have been in a church on fire for god and saw it explode from the inside because the enemy attacks everything that prospers the word of god. I do not know the sin; I only know that the enemy used whatever he could to take down the leadership to stop the move of god. That's how he works. He's going down kicking and screaming and clawing because he doesn't want to spend 1000 years in the bottomless pit and then eternity in the lake of fire.
This statement from Paul scares me to no end
If what I say to you, in this document, is vein deceit, on my part, then I am doomed; I risk everything in saying these things to you. I'm examining Paul's words with specific emphasis on how he is handling the broader topics, including sanctification, and not just the narrow topic of justification. Paul's overarching arguments are sound, but the loose language, which made it to us in the KJV, allowed us to interpret in error, it has permeated the whole of Christianity, and it needs to be dealt with because these times are not like the old times; we need more revelation now. Paul was on the leading edge of the wave, he was drinking from the fire hose, and painting with a broad brush to completely revolutionize the thoughts of all of the people of the world; of course he didn't have time to express every topic perfectly in every conversation; no one can. Every conversation must limit its scope to that which can accomplish something; if it didn't, no one would ever accomplish anything; you can't prove the whole world between lunch and dinner. This document took me more than a week and I have the internet. Paul's writings were not the end of all conversation; he did not give us all the instruction that we need; god's plan is bigger than Paul. Paul had one of the all-time great salvation experiences; of course he's going to lean on that. How could he not? Paul was trying to take the gospel to the whole world to bring about the return of Jesus in the second coming. Salvation was Paul's core message.
Col 2:8 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.
Paul is talking about your sins being forgiven
not about the end of the 10 Commandments
The handwriting of ordinances must refer to man's law because the 10 Commandments are eternal and shall never be blotted out.
Col 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us.
Paul did not say anything about god not judging you
for not keeping the Sabbath; he only said, let no man judge you
I'm not here to judge you, I'm here to tell you what god said about it. I'm not here telling you that god told me something new, in secret, about it, I'm simply clarifying what god already said about it in his word, for which we have done a poor job in interpreting. You need to look at it in your bible and decide for yourself, and stop leaning on the traditions of men to do your work, and that requires study, not casual reading, nor the reading of opinions, including mine. I only want to bring the thoughts to the table so that you can go study and make your decision between you and god.
Col 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days.
Christians have interpreted this verse too broadly
Paul talks about no longer being bound by ordinances regarding your sensual experiences
This is about commandments and doctrines of men, with which Jewish law was replete. However, the 10 Commandments are in a different category from all of them, they are commandments of god, which Jesus obeyed, and said they would never pass away. Do we overly broadly interpret Paul, or do we listen to direct quotes from Jesus? God's law and man's law is not the same thing. We've overly interpreted this statement to include god's law. Paul didn't say it wrong, we interpreted it wrong. God writes all of his laws on your heart to replace the doctrines of men, except for the 10 Commandments, which are the law of god that never pass away.
Col 2:20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
Paul quoted scripture to show that the law was used
to show man that he was not righteous
Romans 3:10 There is no one righteous, not even one.
The choice of words here, whether they be Paul's or the translator's
make it sound as if the law is useless for anything other than showing you that you cannot keep it
I agree that is why the old covenant wasn't good enough, and god gave us a better covenant. However, Paul's topic was justification, and not sanctification. To use the word "merely" in this statement does a disservice to the 10 Commandments; it's overstated by any criteria. Can God's eternal law, the 10 Commandments, be boiled down to only one lesson, expressed in eight words? That's a ridiculous statement on its own, and only makes sense when you temper it with the preceding statement about justification. The law does much more, but specifically, the law is part of your sanctification process, today. If we didn't need the law, if it we're not profitable, we could just rip the bible in half and save trees by using less paper. Jesus came to fulfill the law, and that does not mean he concluded it, such that you no longer need to care about it; he came to express it in his walk as he followed it to the letter, for your standard, showing you how you should walk before god, today. Paul didn't say it wrong, we have interpreted it wrong.
Romans 3:20 Therefore no one will be justified in His sight by works of the law. For the law merely brings awareness of sin.
Paul completely muddies the water when he says
the righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ
He pulls back and focuses on justification, but leaves righteousness hanging out there, seemingly immediately connected to justification, but it is not. Sanctification is a process, you shall eventually have it completed, but not on this Earth. It comes through faith, but not at the same time as the justification.
Romans 3:21 But now, apart from the law, the righteousness of God has been revealed, as attested by the Law and the Prophets. And this righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no distinction, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
Paul correctly conveyed that we are justified by faith
so that our sin is not counted against us
That is a completely separate issue from whether we should try to keep the 10 Commandments, and whether they are eternal.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus.
Paul goes on to say; only a few verses later
to end the chapter, that god's law is still in force
Romans 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Abraham was justified by faith, and he kept the law
Justification is about salvation; god's law is about sanctification
They are separate issues. Paul ends the next chapter talking about Abraham receiving the promise, which is for justification, not sanctification.
Romans 4:22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him; But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
Paul continues to be overly broadly interpreted as he ends the next chapter
Paul rightly declares justification was possible, by grace, because Christ was also righteous
We shall also be righteous after we are sanctified, which is a partial process while we live on Earth, and completed by god when we die. We are justified now, completely, and we shall be sanctified completely at some point, but not now; they are two different promises, and two different processes.
Romans 5:18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous. Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound: That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.
In the next chapter, Paul opens a can of worms with this statement
Romans 6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
Paul ends the chapter with thoughts that are also too broadly interpreted because he uses the word law
but you have to go back to the beginning of Romans to see that he is talking about men's law, which I showed you earlier
This is the same conversation from Paul, he doesn't feel the need to emphasize that over and over, it's already understood that he is talking about the law that men wrote. When he says the words "obedience unto righteousness", he is speaking about sanctification, which is governed by god's law, and Paul says, you are not a servant of sin, but rather you should obey righteousness, god's righteousness, which is the 10 Commandments. Paul says for you, under grace, to now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness; holiness and righteousness are still governed by god's law; sanctification only has one path, declared in god's law, which are the 10 Commandments. Again, Paul didn't say it wrong, we have interpreted it wrong.
Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Look at the law that Paul is talking about as he begins the next chapter
This law is not part of the 10 Commandments, it's man's law
Romans 7:1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth? For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth.
Paul's loose conversation, or the translators, has led to our inconsistent interpretation
Therefore I have to assume that it had some purpose in god's plan for the unfolding of revealed truth. Here, Paul now uses law in a completely different way, but look at the specific law that he refers to, this one happens to be in the 10 Commandments.
Romans 7:7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
Paul says this law, in the 10 Commandments, is holy
He does a poor job of delineating between man's law and god's law all through Romans, which has allowed for our loose interpretation.
Romans 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Paul struggles with sin, at the end of this chapter
he says the law is spiritual, but he is carnal
He does things he wishes he didn't do, but he consents to the law because it's good; he fails to follow the law because sin dwells in his unsanctified man; he delights in the law of God in his inner man, meaning that the 10 Commandments are still valid, but other laws are in him that are causing a problem, they are a law of sin, men's law; Paul determines to serve the law of God that is at war with his flesh because the unsanctified part of him sins. Again, Paul didn't say it wrong, we have interpreted it wrong.
Romans 7:14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Paul speaks about justification, not sanctification
straight away, in the beginning of the next chapter
When he says therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus. Later, Paul upholds the standard for sanctification is that the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us. When he says that the carnal mind is not subject to the law of God, he is not saying that the 10 Commandments are no longer valid; he is saying that your unsanctified parts ignore them. God's law, the 10 Commandments, still have righteousness in them. He's not being wishy-washy; he's talking about two separate subjects, justification and sanctification. We know what the law can and cannot do because we have two covenants; the 10 Commandments cannot save you, but the 10 Commandments are still god's law for sanctification. Again, Paul didn't say it wrong, we have interpreted it wrong.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
Paul continues to focus on justification
as his main point, as he winds down the chapter
The whole book of Roman's focuses on justification, with only an occasional nod to sanctification, where he always comes back to the 10 Commandments being god's law. Paul was not very clear in this long book of Romans, when his conversation meandered through topics related to the law, which made it easy for us to lump man's law in with god's law, when the 10 Commandments are clearly handled separately by god, as we saw earlier, in many bible verses, including the words of Jesus.
Romans 8:31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Paul talks about national Jews
in the next chapter, and says that some will be saved and some will not
Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
Paul's argument includes this about national Jews
But implicitly, we confirm that the covenant is with Israel, only the question remains, which is included in Israel to be saved.
Romans 9:6 For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel.
Paul winds down the chapter including gentiles
and yet again he uses the word righteousness instead of justification
It's not entirely incorrect to use the word righteousness, because eventually we must attain righteousness to live with god, but salvation does not immediately make you sanctified. Again, Paul didn't say it wrong, we have interpreted it wrong.
Romans 9:30 What shall we say then? That the Gentiles, which followed not after righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith. But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness.
In the next chapter, Paul uses the word righteousness
but his topic is salvation, which is justification
We know that sanctification is not accomplished at justification, and the words that were translated, which we read, whether correctly or ambiguously I know not, but we do an injustice to the broader truth in regard to this subject, and cause confusion when we combine justification and sanctification together by using the term righteousness. When you are saved, you are an infant in Christ, and you need to gradually allow god to work out your sanctification, so that you are increasingly able to become more righteous, giving you the power to sin less in some areas as you mature in him. No one is immediately perfected in their character when they are saved. Can we agree on that?
Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Paul is the Apostle to the gentiles
on some levels he's our biggest influence since the Jesus ascended to heaven
Paul teaches us a tremendous amount, but he is not the standard, Jesus is the standard. The main point here is that Christ is our standard, and Christ obeyed all 10 of the Commandments, and observed the Jewish festivals, and he said the 10 Commandments are eternal. Christ is everything in the covenant, and the covenant is with Israel, we are all in Israel with Christ. Clearly the holy spirit is greater, but Paul wrote letters we can physically hold, in our bibles.
Col 3:10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
All of the misinterpreted verses above were caused by the language
not focusing on the thing that the statements were actually used to create doctrine about
Then they were used to extended doctrine into a direction that Paul was not specifically communicating about. Here, Paul completely supports and directly names four of the 10 Commandments: idolatry, adultery, stealing and coveting. Really, if you have an idol, you have also broken the first commandment, which is not having any god before him, so this is 5 of the 10.
1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Paul continues to talk about the flesh
the unsanctified part of your heart
Paul directly says they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. He adds murder to the list of the 10 Commandments.
Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Paul condemns false witness and taking god's name in vain
This brings his endorsement to eight of the 10 Commandments
Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Paul quotes the commandment to obey your parents
bringing our total to nine of the 10 Commandments
Eph 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;).
That brings us to the remaining commandment, which is the Sabbath
We already showed where Paul went to the synagogue on the Sabbath in Acts, and the following Sabbath, they did it again. He even preached to gentiles on the Sabbath. We also see that he was in the synagogue every Sabbath, seemingly for a year and a half. Another place he argued three Sabbaths in a row. In Luke, we saw that Jesus kept the Sabbath, as was his custom. Here. Paul commands you to follow Christ, as he follows Christ; they both kept the Sabbath. That means Paul has directly named all ten of the 10 Commandments and supported them completely. How can you make an argument that Paul threw out the 10 Commandments?
1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.
You can see that the enemy was so worried about the Sabbath
that he acted against the KJV translators directly. Here's the KJV translation
Hebrews 4:9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
That word "rest" in Greek is "sabbatismos", which should have literally translated as “sabbath observance” so that the verse reads as, “There remaineth therefore a sabbath observance to the people of God.”
The KJV translators didn't believe it themselves because it didn't line up with their theology, and so they used the word rest. If we make that correction, Paul is directly telling us that god's people keep the Sabbath.

Are you really ok with keeping 9 out of 10 Commandments?
and the one you want to stand in rebellion against is the Sabbath?
If I was going to pick just one to disobey, it certainly would not be that one. Is this really your choice or have you been deceived by the craftiest deceiver of them all?
Jesus said
Matthew 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
Jesus was in the synagogue on the Sabbath day, which was his custom
Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
John wrote about the remnant
identified as the ones that keep the commandments of God
That's the group I want to be in, right there. Even if I am the only one proclaiming it right now, I'm in. Look how it pairs both of the promises from the everlasting covenant, confessing faith in Jesus for justification, and keeping the commandments for sanctification. We need both, I am convinced.
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Only the Sabbath is in contention
Nine of the 10 Commandments are not in question
Why is that? It is because it's directly tied to your sanctification, the second promise in the everlasting covenant. Particularly today, when you are likely to live through the tribulation, and the mark of the beast, it's the key to not taking the mark. Everything that the enemy can think of has attacked this one point because he thinks it's his key to his victory. If you believe that there is a war in heaven, you have to believe that the enemy has attacked this Commandment, and that he used deception in the churches to attack it, and we have been called out of the false churches, which the enemy has defiled, and blood of the saints is on his hands for it. God's people will be killed because of this deception. Don't let him kill you over which day you worship god! How ridiculous this is for me to go through all of this documentation to convince you of one simple fact: god said keep my commandments forever. What else do you need? Your church doesn't have to remain a false church, it can turn. Turn it, or leave it!
Judgment begins in the house of god
Jesus is coming to take vengeance on anyone that does not obey the gospel. After Noah preached, everyone was either in or out. Noah called people to enter into the ark, for a shelter, a refuge from the judgment. The ark and the sanctuary are the place of safety. God gives his people a place of safety. Be ye not stiff-necked; enter into the sanctuary so that his wrath may turn from you. The sanctuary structure teaches us about the everlasting gospel. The sanctuary points us to the ark for god's people at the end of days. The gospel has always been to trust in the sacrifice of the lamb. God promises to show mercy to those who keep his commandments.
There is safety in the covenant
It is our ark, today. When Noah entered into the ark, he entered into the covenant, where god promised to keep him safe. Jesus is coming to judge the earth with righteousness. His commandments are righteousness.
Ps 119:172 My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness. Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts. I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight. Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me. I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.
Paul said the law is holy
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
Look at all of these parallel comparisons that equate god with the law
God is good, and the law is good.
Luk 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
God is just, and the law is just.
Deu 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
God is holy, and the law is holy
Is 6:3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
Rom 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
God is eternal, and the law is eternal
Deu 33:27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.
Ps 111:7 The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure. They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
God is love, and the law is love
1 John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
Rom 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
God is peace, and the law is peace
Rom 15:33 Now the God of peace be with you all.
Is 48:18 O that thou hadst hearkened to my commandments! then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea.
God is truth, and the law is truth
Deu 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
Ps 119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.
If the law is everlasting, has it passed away?
The law in his 10 commandments applies to you today.
The law will protect you during the tribulation
but the law does not provide you with eternal salvation
Heb 7:19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
Your hope comes from god by the holy spirit
when you believe in the blood of Jesus
Rom 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.
Love is the fulfilling of the law
When we bear each other’s burdens, we are fulfilling the law of Christ.
Selfishness is unsustainable
It leads to destruction and judgment .
To live a life without sin
You must have righteousness. Obedience to the law protects us from judgment. The promises of mercy and restoration to a life of selfless love are promised to all who seek the ark of safety. God promises to fulfill this in us, it is a better promise, it is god's promise to us, it is a better covenant, it is the new covenant.
Jesus kept his father's commandments
John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
The old covenant was not good enough
because it depended upon your promise to god
So god made a new covenant that depends on his promise to us.
Jesus left heaven to come down to earth to save you
Let's follow the path through the sanctuary model, which Jesus took to meet you at the cross.
Model of the sanctuary
The 7 Pieces of Furniture in the Tabernacle
Beginning at the Ark of the Covenant
Where Jesus was in heaven, in the holy of holies, and Jesus left heaven to come down to earth to offer his life as a substitute sacrifice for us. Justice required a sacrifice, and he paid that price.
The Candlestick, his testimony
John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
The Alter of Incense, he is our intercessor
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
The table of showbread, the word of god
John 6:41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
The laver
he was the living water
John 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
The sacrifice is the lamb of god
Jesus left heaven to come to earth to meet you at the cross.
He was fully god, he came here to live fully as a man, and die on the cross for you, as a sacrifice to pay for your sin, so you can be justified before god, to save your soul forever.
John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
The sanctuary model also points our way up to god
the pattern, for us to return to heaven to live with him
In the reverse order, from which he left heaven, we meet Jesus at the cross and follow him back to heaven, retracing the same steps that he took to get to earth. This is our pattern for the Christian walk, the way god wants us to do live.
Justification by faith in the blood of Jesus
By faith, we believe that his sacrifice on the cross is enough to save our immortal soul from being separated from him forever. By repenting from our sin, and confessing with our mouth, we receive justification before god, and from that point on, God's mercy looks at us, just as if we had never sinned. Your salvation is a settled issue, and that is the beginning of your Christian walk, the first part of his promise to you, in the new covenant, but that mercy is only half of the promise. To escape judgment in the tribulation, you also need sanctification, the other part of his promise.
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Baptism in the laver
Baptism is where we publically acknowledge the death of our old sinful nature, and we commit to a life of righteousness in Christ.
Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire.
The showbread, we study the bible, the written word of god
Mat 4:3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
The alter of incense, our prayers are heard, by the father through Jesus, our intercessor
We can now commune with the father, in prayer, through Jesus, who sits at the right hand of the father, in the holy of holies.
Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
The candlestick, let your light shine through your testimony, to give glory to god
Mat 5:15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Enter into the holy of holies, where we live in harmony with the law, in the presence of god
Heb 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; And having an high priest over the house of God; Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; for he is faithful that promised.
That process of restoration, from the cross to the Ark of the Covenant, is called sanctification
Sanctification is where we retrace the steps that Jesus took to meet us at the cross, and return to heaven with him, into the holy of holies.
Romans 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
He justifies us so we can be sanctified
To live in heaven with him, you must obey the law there, it is the law there, it has always been the law there, and it will always be the law there, forever.
In the new covenant
As he deals with us, we cooperate with his effort to restore our character, in our soul, which is our mind and our heart, and this is the Christian walk, by the renewing of our minds. We are gradually relieved of our iniquities (breaking the law), he addresses the parts of us that break his laws, and he replaces our iniquities by writing his laws on the tablets of our heart, so that we delight in doing his righteousness. The evidence is that your life is changed, and when people see the change in your life, you are giving glory to god. Glory is not a word that you say to god, glory is a display of evidence that god is faithful in his promise to change your life so that you can live in his presence forever. That is how you give glory to god; you show others that you obey the law. Do you have a pocket full of glory to give god? Your job is to obey the law, and god gets the glory for doing his job, because he kept his word. God is glorified in all the earth because he is faithful to keep his word; your behavior is changed.
Hebrews 8:10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
Iniquities and transgressions are about breaking the law
Ezekiel 18:30 Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
The hour of judgment in the last days
The last judgment hour began in 1844, and the door is about to close. I proclaim to you now, the everlasting gospel, god's promise of mercy and sanctification, calling all who will listen, to enter into the sanctuary, into a covenant, a contract with god. In order to receive the promises in the contract, you must respond and choose to enter in before the door closes. There is a dividing line, both for being saved, and for receiving judgment in the tribulation, and you have the good fortune to be alive at a time in history when you can experience both. Are you ready now? The funny thing about faith is you cannot lie, not to yourself, and not to god. Faith only works when it is true; either you believe or you do not believe, there is nothing in between. Faith is black and white; you have it or you do not. You can only be justified by faith; you must believe in the sufficient sacrifice of the cross to be saved.
The terms of the contract, keep the law
Ecc 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
Believe in Jesus to be born again
and demonstrate that the love of god is in your life, by keeping the law
1 John 5:1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Demonstrate that you know him by keeping the law, as Jesus did
1 John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
Give glory to god by keeping the law
Demonstrate his character by following the law to work his love towards others. He asks us to live the way he lives, in selfless love. When we do, god is glorified because it demonstrates that he is able to fulfill his promise to sanctify us, and restore us to god the father.
How do we demonstrate our faith in his everlasting covenant?
Worship the creator. You must believe in the flood event in order to believe in a creator. Just like the creator set the bow in the clouds as a promise to man that he will never destroy the earth by water again, so he create a memorial to his creation with the Sabbath. God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it. That means god said something good about the seventh day, god created the earth with his words, when he says something it always comes to pass, it is so. God called the seventh day into being, to be set aside for him, forever.
Gen 2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
The sign that god is our creator is the Sabbath
Ex 31:16 Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
The warning for you now
Rev 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
He is the creator, and we are to worship him for it
That reference to the fountains of waters points us back to the flood event, where the creator destroyed his creation with water. Since he created us, he has the right to tell us what the law is.
The Sabbath is a sign that he is able to sanctify us, forever
Ex 31:12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my Sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Ye shall keep the Sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the Sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the Sabbath, to observe the Sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
The Sabbath is an outward sign of an inward work
That only god can sanctify us; our works cannot save us or sanctify us. The old covenant failed because it was based upon the promise of the people to do what god wanted, and they failed. The new covenant, with the same people, who you are lucky enough to be included in, is based upon what god promises to do in us. It is a better covenant, because it depends upon his faithfulness, not ours.
In the New Testament, god is still talking to the house of Israel
that's our new covenant where god puts his same laws into our mind, and writes them in our hearts
Heb 8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.
Yes, it's your new covenant, oh house of Israel!
talking to you Christians
The New Testament is the new covenant to the house of Israel, which are you Christians. You gentiles are grafted in to the house of Israel. You don't know who you are because you have been deceived by a counterfeit message. The Roman Catholic Church and the whole protestant church world has been deliberately and systematically and successfully deceived, one brick at a time over centuries. God built his church on this rock, and it served its purpose, but it is corrupt, and now you have to come out of her. This is the message for the end of days.
When you keep the Sabbath
you are demonstrating that you trust god to keep his promise to restore you
On the Sabbath, you are to rest from saving yourself, stop working out your own salvation, and be thankful that god is sanctifying you. It's a time to worship the creator, encourage others, and enjoy spending time with the family. It is a perpetual covenant, it never ends, and it applies to New Testament Christians. We're going to look at the whole sordid affair that deceived us, beginning with the everlasting covenant.
The everlasting covenant was made with Noah
Gen 9:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
Countdown to the flood is 120 years
Gen 6:3 So the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.” The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and afterward as well—when the sons of God had relations with the daughters of men. And they bore them children who became the mighty men of old, men of renown. Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was altogether evil all the time. And the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. So the LORD said, “I will blot out man, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—every man and beast and crawling creature and bird of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.” Noah, however, found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
God promises mercy in the rainbow
Is 54:9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
The rainbow is a sign of the mercy promise
and the Sabbath is a sign of the sanctification promise
Ez 20:12 Moreover also I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
Noah was protected during the judgment
and he was sanctified as he walked with god
Gen 6:8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
The everlasting covenant in the New Testament
god working in you gives Christ glory
Heb 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
It’s the same everlasting covenant in the old and new testaments, and the Sabbath is for all gentiles
and all nations, and all people; it’s for everyone that keeps the Sabbath, and enters into his covenant
Is 56:1 Thus saith the LORD, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed. Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil. Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree. For thus saith the LORD unto the eunuchs that keep my Sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant; Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off. Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the Sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant; Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people. The Lord GOD which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
All who enter into the covenant by keeping the Sabbath are welcome
This hour of judgment , which we are in right now, is the last opportunity that you have to enter into the covenant with him to avoid being judged by his wrath. God's wrath is coming to the earth and you can avoid it, but this is your last opportunity to enter into the place of safety, to experience rest in the promise of god.
Do you believe?
Heb 4:4 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. And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief.
Your day of decision is near
Joel 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
We have to look at end time prophecy to understand what is going on
Only the word of god can tell the end from the beginning
Prophecy uses symbolism to keep things hidden until just the right time, in god's timing, and the bible uses parables to teach us the deeper things. Some things we discussed here were revealed by god a hundred years ago; other things are just now being revealed, they are for us today, they were not revealed to our grandparents. What does the bible interpret for itself? We don't want to make up our own interpretation, we want the bible to interpret its own symbols.
Isaiah 46:10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.
The woman in prophecy is God’s people, or the church
When it says "her" and "she", it is the woman, like it is in most places in the bible
Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her to sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to Himself as a glorious church, without stain or wrinkle or any such blemish, but holy and blameless. In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. Indeed, no one ever hated his own body, but he nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church. For we are members of His body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This mystery is profound, but I am speaking about Christ and the church. Nevertheless, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.
Jer 6:1 “Run for cover, O sons of Benjamin; flee from Jerusalem! Sound the ram’s horn in Tekoa; send up a signal over Beth-haccherem, for disaster looms from the north, even great destruction. Though she is beautiful and delicate, I will destroy the Daughter of Zion. Shepherds and their flocks will come against her; they will pitch their tents all around her, each tending his own portion: ‘Prepare for battle against her; rise up, let us attack at noon. Woe to us, for the daylight is fading; the evening shadows grow long. Rise up, let us attack by night and destroy her fortresses!’?”
Daniel vision of four great beasts (governments)
that came up out of the sea (of humanity)
Daniel 7:1 In the first year of the reign of Belshazzar over Babylon, Daniel had a dream, and visions passed through his mind as he lay on his bed. He wrote down the dream, and this is the summary of his account. Daniel declared: “In my vision in the night I looked, and suddenly the four winds of heaven were churning up the great sea. Then four great beasts came up out of the sea, each one different from the others: The first beast was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man, and given the mind of a man. Suddenly another beast appeared, which looked like a bear. It was raised up on one of its sides, and it had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. So it was told, ‘Get up and gorge yourself on flesh!’ Next, as I watched, another beast appeared. It was like a leopard, and on its back it had four wings like those of a bird. The beast also had four heads, and it was given authority to rule. After this, as I watched in my vision in the night, suddenly a fourth beast appeared, and it was terrifying—dreadful and extremely strong—with large iron teeth. It devoured and crushed; then it trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the beasts before it, and it had ten horns. While I was contemplating the horns, suddenly another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like those of a man and a mouth that spoke words of arrogance.
Daniel 7:9 As I continued to watch, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took His seat. His clothing was white as snow, and the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from His presence. Thousands upon thousands attended Him, and myriads upon myriads stood before Him. The court was convened, and the books were opened. Then I kept watching because of the arrogant words the horn was speaking. As I continued to watch, the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was removed, but they were granted an extension of life for a season and a time.
Daniel 7:13 In my vision in the night I continued to watch, and I saw One like the Son of Man coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into His presence. And He was given dominion, glory, and kingship, that the people of every nation and language should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and His kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.
Daniel’s visions interpreted
horns are kings, rulers of governments
Daniel 7:15 I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit, and the visions in my mind alarmed me. I approached one of those who were standing there, and I asked him the true meaning of all this. So he told me the interpretation of these things: ‘These four great beasts are four kings who will arise from the earth. But the saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever—yes, forever and ever.’ Then I wanted to know the true meaning of the fourth beast, which was different from all the others—extremely terrifying—devouring and crushing with iron teeth and bronze claws, then trampling underfoot whatever was left. I also wanted to know about the ten horns on its head and the other horn that came up, before which three of them fell—the horn whose appearance was more imposing than the others, with eyes and with a mouth that spoke words of arrogance. As I watched, this horn was waging war against the saints and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days arrived and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for them to possess the kingdom. This is what he said: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms, and it will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it. And the ten horns are ten kings who will rise from this kingdom. After them another king, different from the earlier ones, will rise and subdue three kings. He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time. But the court will convene, and his dominion will be taken away and completely destroyed forever. Then the sovereignty, dominion, and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will serve and obey Him.’ Thus ends the matter. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts troubled me greatly, and my face turned pale. But I kept the matter to myself.”
The four great beasts are four kings
quoted from above
The beast is a sovereign government, it can be a kingdom or any form of government that rules a land.
A horn is a king, or government leader
quoted from above
The ten horns are ten kings.
Same description from Revelation
quoted from above
It had ten horns... suddenly another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were uprooted before it. This horn had eyes like those of a man and a mouth that spoke words of arrogance.
The strategy of the enemy is to change the law
quoted from above
After them another king, different from the earlier ones, will rise and subdue three kings. He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws.
The Woman riding the Beast
is a church that is also a government
Rev 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
The Mystery Explained
Rev 17:7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
The waters are the sea of humanity
quoted from above
The great whore that sitteth upon many waters. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
World governments will hate the church government for having so much power
because it influences world power more than them, quoted from above
And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore.
The woman riding a beast is the church with a city government
both a church and a state, quoted from above
And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
What city rules over the kings of the earth?
Vatican City, the only church nation in the world, is drunk with the blood of the saints and witnesses for Jesus. the Roman Catholic Church holds sway with many governments of the world.
Rome sits on 7 hills

The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. Rome sits on 7 hills, Rome made the Vatican its own sovereign nation.
The woman is the Roman Catholic Church

And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Catholic priests everywhere, not isolated, from increasingly disparate locations
they cover up their immoral acts with young boys, quoted from above
She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality.
It can't happen everywhere unless it comes from the top down. When charges are brought, they move priests around and hide them, never rebuking them, never warning parishiners, always settling out of court, no admissions of guilt ever, no repentence ever, no changes ever, no denuciation ever, no justice ever, no correction ever.
The woman dressed in red is a harlot
she committed adultery against god, quoted from above
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

Other denominations have been spawned from her, and they too are prostitutes.
Fate of the Roman Catholic Church in Vatican City
Rev 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her. And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee; And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
Babylon, which is Vatican City, is destroyed
quoted from above
That great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to naught.

And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
The Roman Catholic Church goes from influencing nations to eternal destruction
within a single year, quoted from above
For in one hour is she made desolate. Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

As it was in the days of Noah
quoted from above
Men had only evil in their hearts, and so shall it be in the time of the end.
Noah received a warning from three angels that a global judgment was coming, truth will be attacked by a counterfeit message, and everyone has to choose.
Fermented wine is false doctrine
Prov 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
Babylon is teaching false doctrine to lead people away from the truth
Rev 17:3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Light dispels the darkness
2 Peter 1:19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
The "woman" in prophecy is god's people
Jer 6:2 I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman.
Zion in prophecy is god's people
Is 51:16 And I have put my words in thy mouth, and I have covered thee in the shadow of mine hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and say unto Zion, Thou art my people.
Even in the New Testament, the woman
the wife, is the church, god's people
Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church. Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence her husband.
In prophecy, we see two women, one dressed in red, one dressed in white
The red represents the counterfeit church, and the white represents the true church.
Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
The woman in red is a harlot
Rev 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Woman in white, and a red dragon
Rev 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Fourth beast is a kingdom or nation
Dan 7:23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
The beast rises to power in a highly populated area
Rev 17:15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
The little horn is the papacy
Dan 8:9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.
The pope changed the laws and the time to pervert the sanctuary
Instead of relying on Jesus in the heavenly sanctuary, the pope taught men to depend on him, and his counterfeit gospel, in the earthly sanctuary. Every part of the sanctuary was attacked. In 1302, pope Boniface VIII declares by papal decree, that there is no salvation outside the Roman Catholic church, that the sacrifice of Jesus' blood on the cross was not enough. In 1343 pope Clement VI justified papal power to issue indulgences, where you now have to pay indulgences to the pope, and do penance. The laver of baptism, where a person of accountable age was submersed, was replaced by the sprinkling of infants, who were too young to repent. In 1229, pope Gregory IX, forbid laymen from reading the bible for themselves, and the punishment for violating it was death, perverting the showbread. The confessional replaced the intercession of Jesus, putting the pope between you and god. Witnessing was stamped out, perverting the candlestick in the sanctuary. In 1582, pope Gregory XIII replaced the Julian calendar with a new calendar called the Gregorian calendar, changing the times. The biggest change of all, the church perverts the holy of holies by changing the law, by declaring Sunday is the new Sabbath; this is directly tied to the mark of the beast, explained in detail below.
It was prophesied that the little horn, the papacy, not a single pope
the church nation ruled by the papacy, changes the laws and the times
Dan 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. 25And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws.
The Roman Catholic Church declared that the pope has the power to abolish the Sabbath
and they commanded churches to keep the first day of the week, Sunday, as the Lord's Day
Published by Fr. Thomas Enright, GSSR at Redemptoral College, Kansas City, Mo, in his paper titled, History of the Sabbath, page 802.
Christian churches bowed down to the Roman Catholic Church
and changed the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday
The Lords Day was born by papal decree. You can read it directly in Catholic Canon. It says "the Pope has the power to change times, to abrogate laws, and to dispense with all things, even the precepts of Christ." Go read it for yourself, in Lucius Ferrari's Ecclesiastical Dictionary. Catholic canon claims that it is legitimate for the pope to modify divine law.
Roman Catholic Church removed the commandment about not worshiping the image
and then split the 10th commandment in half, so that the count of commandments can still list 10
In Catholic texts, they changed "Remember the Sabbath" to "remember the Lord's Day".
Here is a quote from a Catholic priest, Priest Brady, who out of conviction, gives a warning of what was
well-known from the inside, to us on the outside, in the Elizabeth New Jersey News, on March 18, 1903
"It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and other Christians that the Bible does not support them in this observation of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church and those who observe that day observe a command of the Roman Catholic Church".
You are responsible for what you follow
If god says something, it is so, and if you choose to believe something different, which is contrary to that, and then you are to blame for believing them and not believing god. You're going to be forced to choose; don’t let that decision be made by default. You are still responsible, even if you simply grabbed ahold of tradition. That mark will be in your hand.
The commandment that begins with "Remember"
is the very commandment that the counterfeit church wants you to forget
The counterfeit church, beginning with the Roman Catholic Church, led by the papacy in Vatican City, and all of Christendom who followed her, have become the counterfeit church, and they are marked by whether they follow the law. Your church is a harlot if they meet on Sunday, instead of Saturday, it is that simple. You think that hurts? I'm just getting started. Either I am deceiving the whole world now, or they deceived the whole world, slowly over the past 500 years, or so. Which is it?
Wine, fermented or unfermented
Jesus used unfermented wine, grape juice, in his covenant, and for the last supper. The counterfeit church uses fermented wine. Babylon, offers a counterfeit wine and covenant.
Prov 31:4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink: Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted. Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts. Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.
You have been deceived
You are justified by faith, but you have been deceived into believing that the law no longer applies, which is a direct assault on your sanctification, by the enemy, through the counterfeit church, to derail your restoration, so he can destroy you during the tribulation and it is directly tied to the mark of the beast counterfeiting the seal of god, which was designed for your protection when you go through the tribulation.
This is so important, that if you take the mark of the beast
you can be saved, and still be tormented for all of eternity
You cannot enter into the presence of god without being restored to him, and sanctification while you're on Earth is tied to the law. God gave you two promises, and you need them both. We say once saved, always saved, and that's true, but justification is not the end of the process, it's the beginning, the first step in the Christian walk. You must go all the way into the holy of holies to meet god if you intend to live with him in eternity because that is where he lives. He told us how to get there and it is our job to believe it and act on that belief. For everyone that is justified and dies before the time of the mark of the beast, God promises to complete our salvation. Even so, you should be walking down that road now, and not show up in heaven still as an infant. However, those of us who are about to go through the tribulation are in a different situation; we are a special case, which god sent a special warning for. He said any man, justified or not justified, saved or not saved, who takes the mark of the beast, shall be tormented for ever and ever.
If you wonder why so many Christian are not sanctified, it is because they do not believe that the 10 Commandments apply to them, and they do not observe the Sabbath. You enter into a covenant to allow god to sanctify you when you keep the Sabbath. Now, it might be true, that this warning, which you are reading now, shall go out into all the land and all saved Christians will know better than to take the mark of the beast, by coming out of their counterfeit churches, and therefore, no saved people will take the mark of the beast, and no saved people will be tormented forever. We can't say that is true, and we have to recognize that god said "any man." Any man means saved or not saved. Don't get caught in a counterfeit church when the dooor closes. Your immortal soul is at stake, my saved breatheren. I didn't say it, god said it.
Rev 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, 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: 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. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Keep the commandments of God ... AND ... have faith in Jesus
both are required to live with god in heaven
Both justification and sanctification have always been required, and both shall always be required. His law is forever, even in the new covenant promise of justification by faith in the blood of Jesus. Justification is only half of the process, which is required for you to enter heaven and live in the presence of god.
God promises to do the sanctification
but you are required to enter into that promise by observing the Sabbath
I'm going to show you why you must keep the law in order to receive this promise while you live on Earth, and how it relates to the Seal of God and the Mark of the Beast. The mark of the beast does not affect all Christians throughout history because no one has taken the mark of the beast yet, but it is coming soon, and it affects you.
We need to preach this to all of the churches so that they can become the true church
before the door closes and the mark of the beast is placed upon all of their members
Every church that remembers the Lord's Day, instead of the Sabbath, must switch to observe the original 10 commandments before they take the mark of the beast, which is a simple choice that will be made soon, world-wide, even if it is made by non-action.
Not switching for the reason that you just continue on and not examine it is equal to taking it the mark of the beast in the hand. Not switching for the reason that you do examine it again and choose to remain with the Lord's Day is equal to taking it the mark of the beast in the forehead.
Switching to the Sabbath after examining the law, and choosing to obey the law, and observer the Sabbath, is the act that places the seal of god in your forehead. Being a member of a denomination that already keeps the law of the Sabbath is how you receive the seal of god in your hand.
You are personally warned to come out of the counterfeit church, which is basically the whole of Christianity, with few exceptions. The opportunity does exist for your entire denomination to change and choose to follow the law. Obviously that is preferable, both to you and to god, but if you cannot get the whole congregation to follow the law, then you are called to come out of her before it is too late. The sign that you commit yourself to the law is keeping the Sabbath, and nothing else.
I'm getting ahead of myself, but I want you to know what I'm proving so that you can examine it while you go through it. What follows are the arguments offered as proof, and we're going to begin by looking at some prophecy.
Prophecy time to Earth time
each day in prophecy is one year on earth
Ez 4:5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
Num 14:34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
Before the cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven, 2300 days
as shown in the timeline
Dan 8:12 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
King Artaxerxes issued a decree

Ezra 7:1 Many years later,a during the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia...
Ezra 7:8 Ezra arrived in Jerusalem in the fifth month of the seventh year of the king...
Ezra 7:14 You are sent by the king and his seven counselors to evaluate Judah and Jerusalem according to the Law of your God, which is in your hand.

Command to restore the temple at Jerusalem
as shown in the timeline
To put major pieces of the puzzle together, we need to know what date to began. First reign begins 464 BC, second reign 450 BC, and the decree is issued in the 7th year of his second reign, which is 457 BC. You have to really dig it out, it's not handed to you in a verse, it's lot's of verses, and then you have to lookup history to find out when all that happened, but the years of a king can be identified in history.
70 weeks
as shown in the timeline
Dan 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
The following timeline can help you see it fit together
but it's not to scale
We saw how the whole sanctuary model was perverted by papal decree
as shown in the timeline
It's been a process, but it had a beginning and it has an end. In prophecy, we see how long that defiling was allowed to go on, which is 2300 years to be trodden under foot.
Dan 8:12 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
John the Baptist
the timing of his ministry is recorded relative to a major figure
Luke 3:1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness. He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins, as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him."
Jesus was baptized at the beginning of Christ's Ministry
as shown in the timeline
Christ's baptism was the 15th year of the reign of Tiberius, in 27 AD, when his ministry began. Tiberius was appointed as co-regent with Augustus in 11 AD, and 15 years later would be 26 AD. I read another account that was differnt about how they marked it, relative to the office, so we're in here somewhere.
Daniel 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Some say this also applies to Jesus earthly ministry. I saw other reasons people think otherwise. We don't really know. There are interesting reasonongs, but I didn't include them.
the temple was tread under foot for 2300 years
as shown in the timeline
From the command to rebuild the temple, we arrive at 1844 AD. Many efforts to deceive were spawned in 1844, which shows the deceiver hard at work because he understood prophecy. Simultaneously, god raised up movements to counter the deception of the enemy to restore the truths of the sanctuary.
To combat the counterfeit, over a period of 500 years
Christian movements restored the truths in the sanctuary
The enemy attacked every part of the sanctuary using papal decree up through the dark ages, where the church literally killed Christians and burned bibles. Let's look at how the counterfeit church, the Roman Catholic Church led by the pope, tried to defile every part of the Sanctuary.
The Altar of Sacrifice represents the All-sufficient sacrifice of Christ for forgiveness of sins. Defiled by papal decree, Priests offer forgiveness as they come in between you and God in the Confessional and they require of you a Penance. Martin Luther tried to restore this in 1517 by starting the Protestant Reformation and founding of the Lutheran church, saying that Christ's sacrifice was sufficient.
The Laver Baptism is cleansing of a person old enough to understand they need forgiveness and to make a personal choice to repent and accept Christ. IT was replaced by Papal decree to become infant sprinkling and pouring. John Smyth tried to restore this in 1608 when he formed the first Baptist church, saying an accountable person is to be submerged.
The Table of Showbread represents the Bible, the Word of God, and spiritual nourishment. Defiled by papal decree, they burned Bibles and took access to God’s Word away making it a crime to own a Bible and read for yourself, requiring you to come to a priest and they put superstition and tradition above God’s Word. John Wycliffe tried to restore this in 1384 when he translated the bible into their common language so everyone could read it for themselves.
The Altar of Incense represents our prayers and Christ’s intercession. Defiled by papal decree, only priests can intercede. John Calvin tried to restore this in 1541 when he founded the Presbyterian Church with a burden for prayer.
The Seven Branch Candlestick represents the Witness of Christ through His body, us, our witness, the Church on earth. Defiled by papal decree, Priests, not the people, are responsible for witnessing. Priests used force and compromise to conscript converts. John Wesley tried to restore this in 1742 when he founded the Methodist church, said the lay-evangelist is given to let your light shine.
The Ark of the Covenant represents the Law of God, where God wrote the law to keep the Sabbath. Defiled by papal decree, in the year 1295, the pope declared that he alone has the right to change god's law, and by papal decree, modified God’s law to remove the seventh-day Sabbath. Seventh-day Baptists & Seventh-day Adventists tried to restore this in 1650, based upon the original 10 commandments as god's law, which keeps the Sabbath.
Both prophecies end in 1844
Look at some of the dates I listed to see that the restoring of the sanctuary ended at the same time the 2300 year prophecy for the temple being trampled underfoot.
Then the warning message goes out, just like it did in the days of Noah
beginning in 1844 and you are called to come out of the counterfeit church
Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
You are called to come out of the false into the true church
Do you choose to follow church tradition over scripture? Do you refuse to enter into the ark? Do you want to spend the tribulation receiving the wrath of god, or do you want to receive protection while you live through the tribulation?
The Roman Catholic Church
THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS
Spawned Christian denominations who are also harlots that have committed adultery against god; protestant churches also rejected the law
Rev 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
He calls you, my people, and he says come out of her
Rev 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people.
My people are the church, come out of the counterfeit church, my true church, specifically tells you, his true church, that you have been deceived. If your church meets on Sunday, it has been deceived; that verse is about your church. God sent an angel, a messenger, to call you and your harlot church out of Babylon. Don't find yourself on the outside of the ark after the door has been shut by god, because it doesn't open for repentance, or any other reason. We are nearing the end of the season that god has given you to enter the ark.
The mark of the beast is observing Sunday
and the law is the key to the seal of god
God sent another angel so that you are not deceived when you make your choice.
Rev 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, 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: 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. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
The mark of the beast is about worshiping the counterfeit
Only the seal of god will protect you during the judgment of the tribulation
Rev 7:2 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.
Noah was settled in the ark and he was preserved through the flood
he went through the flood, but was protected; Scotty didn't beam him up
Gen 7:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in. And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth. And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples
if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them
Is 8:13 Sanctify the LORD of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken. Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him. 1Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry: and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and look upward. And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness.
All official seals have these parts
The Seal of God has these values
The 4th commandment is the Seal of God, the LORD who made the heavens and the earth
authority, title, and jurisdiction; Lord, Creator, and Earth
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God, on which you must not do any work—neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant or livestock, nor the foreigner within your gates. For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, but on the seventh day He rested. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.
The 4th commandment was changed by the pope to destroy you during the tribulation
because the Sabbath is the sign that you have entered into covenant with god
Ez 20:19 I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; And hallow my Sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God.
This beast is the same beast, the Roman Catholic Church and Christian denominations
this beast makes war on the saints, god's true church, and the whole earth worships them, instead of worshiping god; this was is over who you shall worship. if your church leads people into captivity, you shall go into captivity with them.
Rev 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity.
The Roman Catholic Church is claiming authority
to implement the mark of the beast in "Canon and Tradition" page 263
"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."
In 1893, the Roman Catholic Church distributed a pamphlet
it eventually became a book named "Rome's Challenge, Why do Protestants keep Sunday" and the topic, at one time, was broadly discussed.
page 31: Will the protestant churches keep the Sabbath of the Lord, or will they keep the Sunday accord, to the traditions of the Roman Catholic Church?
The law is the foundation of any government
Changing the law of god, is a sign that the Roman Catholic Church is exerting its authority over the law, and over god. Every person shall receive the seal of the power they choose to obey, in the forehead or the hand, by keeping his commandments:
Deu 6:1 Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey. Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates.
A sign on your hand for keeping his law, forever
Ex 13:9 And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD'S law may be in thy mouth: for with a strong hand hath the LORD brought thee out of Egypt. Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year.
A sign on your hand for keeping all the commandments
Deu 11:18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates: That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth. For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him; Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.
The false, counterfeit church is warring with the true church over what they worship
Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, 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.
In the verse above, enter the newcomer, like a lamb
eventually forces everyone to worship the Roman Catholic Church
A new nation rises later in history, in a lesser populated area, like a lamb means that the new nation is Christ-like, often referred to as the most powerful and influential nation on earth. Who does that sound like? The founding fathers of these united states, in the US Constitution in 1787, declared that "we believe these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator, with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Then, in the first amendment to the Constitution, "prevents congress from erecting any law that prevents the freedom of religion."
At some point, the USA will force the whole earth to worship the Roman Catholic Church
The president will support the pope, and eliminate the civil liberties in the US Constitution. Dust off your Trump hat, change is coming to America. Trump has already had secret talks with the pope about coming together, and Trump is up to no good, and he's coming back at you. Regardless of who the president is, it might be Biden for all I know, but it's coming, and it's coming soon, to a city near you. During Jesus' time on the earth, the church turned to Herrod to persecute the church; they did it again in the dark ages; and they will do it again in the end times, which are upon us now. The issue of the Sabbath will become prominent, world-wide, because Babylon includes all of the churches that followed the Roman Catholic Church to Sunday worship. They are all teaching false doctrine, whether they know it or not, and you must tear yourself away from it, obviously at great personal loss, to you and your family, and everyone around you. You're going to see everything galvanize, where the protestant churches align publically with the Roman Catholic Church.
Church and state will form an image to the Roman Catholic Church
Since we are created in God's image means we are created like him, for the state to form an image can mean that the USA can exert undue influence to persuade other countries to support the pope. The world might write a Sunday law, and if you do not comply, you can be killed. I know this is reading between the lines, you can call it conjecture, or you can call it prophecy. Only history will know for sure. What is sure is that I will one day stand before god and give an account for every word that comes from my mouth, and if I deceive others, I will pay dearly for it, so I do not take any of this lightly, and you see that I do not profit monetarily from it, this message is free to the world. What is not conjecture is that the door will close, and you will be holding one of two marks, the seal of god or the mark of the beast. Judgment is coming with seven plagues, and then Jesus is coming back to earth.
Jesus is coming, you need prophecy, all of this is about worship
when he returns you’re already going to be locked into your camp
He told you this is how it is, and do his commandments to partake in the tree of life.
Rev 22 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done. Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book. And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. 9Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
Jesus is currently in the heavenly sanctuary
Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.
Jesus is at the right hand of god, in the holy of holies, making intercession for us
Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
I am the door
John 10:7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Rev 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
The Lord shuts the door
Gen 7:15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
There's going to be a brief period of testing
after the door closes, and before the judgment begins
Noah sat on dry land for 7 days, shut up in the ark, before the rain came.
When he returns, there will be no more intercession
shortly before he returns, god's wrath is poured out
Rev 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
After the door is shut, it's too late
All of you counterfeit Christian churches will say, but we were with you, and the Lord will say depart from me you workers of iniquity; iniquity is lawlessness.
Luke 13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able. When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are: Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets. But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out. And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
The love of God is that we keep his commandments
1 John 5:2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
If you say you love god, and do not keep his commandments, you are a liar
This applies to me as of 12/12/2021, I have never, to this day, kept the Sabbath in my own life; I am convicted now, every word which you have read is from god to me, about me, I might lose everything that's dear to me, and my personal life is in crisis right now, this very minute, as I write this to you. I am judged now, and I choose life. Before this week ends, I'll commit myself to the 10 commandments and keep the Sabbath as a sign to god that I enter into his covenant. The prayer at the end of this document is literally my actual prayer, which I shall pray this week. I have been properly baptized, and I have been justified by faith, but until I actually pray that prayer, after I complete the writing of this document, I am in the same place as all of you, I have been deceived exactly in the same way that you have been deceived. I judge you not, but one shall judge you, and the door is going to close. You must choose, by default or by reason.
Anyone who doesn’t keep his commandments is a liar
Walk as Jesus walked, by the law of god; in the New Testament, he tells you to keep the old commandment law.
1 John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning. Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
Being spared judgment during the tribulation
is a different matter from being saved
The fountains of judgment in the flood are alluded to with Jesus bringing a different judgment in the end time; his judgment is come, like he did with the fountains of waters, before.
Rev 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
The flood is fountains of the great deep broken up
Gen 7:10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
Judgment in the end times, which is god's wrath, are plagues
Rev 15:7 And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.
Rev 9:20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands.
After the last warning, everyone chooses which mark to obey, and then the judgment begins
here's the whole text, look how it flows from the warning to the mark to judgment
Rev 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, 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: 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. Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe. And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
The Lord comes because they changed his law
Ps 119:126 It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law. Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold. Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
In Egypt, the Pharaoh made a law against the Sabbath, and god sent plagues
the pope and the USA will make a law against the Sabbath, and god will send plagues
Rev 16:1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth. And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.
Between the 6th and 7th bowls, Jesus warns he is coming as a thief
and then he actually returns to earth after the 7th
Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. 16And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.
Here is the conclusion of this whole warning
If you read this warning, understand the implications, believe the message, and choose to follow the law, then you will have the Seal of God on your forehead, and you will be brought through the judgment untouched by the plagues, which shall be happening all around you, soon. God's protection shall cover his true church. Enter into the ark now; enter into his everlasting covenant now, by keeping his law, as evidenced by keeping the Sabbath.
Ps 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
This message is about to be preached in the entire world
To begin that process, I'm publishing this message free on the internet, available to be read, around the world by anyone with a browser. It will be interesting to see what god does with it.
The fire of judgment is coming
Is 33:14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
We don't have to receive god's wrath
1 Th 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.
The whole world has a decision, a choice to make
Joel 3:14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
In all the tribulations that you endure, not escape
2 Th 1:4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you.
Jesus was raised from the dead by the blood of the everlasting covenant
Heb 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the time of the end
Noah preached righteousness, and this message preaches righteousness. These prophecies are coming to pass, you have been warned, and you must choose. Who shall you serve? Restore your whole church to observe the Sabbath, or leave that church.
Nearly dying can do funny things to a person
I have decided to be true to my convictions and to my god and to myself. The world has already fundamentally changed. My marriage might not survive this revelation, and my family might not survive this revelation. A week ago none of this was on my mind. A few weeks from now, I intend to publish a book and two websites to challenge the whole scientific community and the whole church world, and you must choose what you believe, just like everyone in the world must choose, soon.
Do you know why this is so clearly stated by me now?
Because the time of the end is near and I was made for such a time as this. You must choose whether I am a raving lunatic, or I have received revelation from the creator.
Did you believe the lie?
Did you allow the traditions of men to come between you and the truth? If you did, you have no excuse. The counterfeit church seduced the whole world and gave you words to use so that you didn't even know that your church was a harlot, until now.
God is calling you out of her
You must either redeem your whole church or leave that church.
You must choose.
It matters not what your sin is, it can be forgiven
God has provided a way, but there is only one door.
Enter in, now.
There's only one door to justification
by faith, by which you can be saved
The blood of Jesus
There's only one door to receive mercy during the judgment
that is about to come upon the earth, and avoid being tormented forever
The Seal of God
Talk to god through your intercessor, Jesus
to settle these matters in your life, with me now
My Father in heaven, the Holy One, Ancient of Days who sits on the thrown, forgive me, I have sinned and I know I need to be forgiven, and I trust that the sacrifice of your son Jesus on the cross is sufficient to pay the price for my sin. I need your word in me. Jesus, hear my prayer as you sit at his right hand, and reconcile me to your father in heaven. I give you my life that I might live with you forever. I accept your promises of mercy and sanctification by observing and doing your law as a sign to the world and I receive your seal on my forehead. I have no god but you. I reject all idols and images. I worship only you. I vow to keep your commandments. I shall not take your name in vain. I will remember the Sabbath and keep it holy. I shall honor my mother and my father. I shall not murder, I shall not commit adultery, I shall not steal, and I shall not tell lies about others. I do not want any one's spouse, or house, or anything that belongs to another. Father God, I trust that you will work your righteousness in me and I come to you through the blood of your son Jesus. Only you can work righteousness in me. I offer this sacrifice now, that you know, as a sign of my commitment to you, you know my struggle, you searched my heart. My sacrifice does not save me, only the blood of Jesus saves me. I seek your righteousness and this is the first of many offerings that I will bring to you as you work out my sanctification. In your timing, I ask for you to give me power to work miracles in your name, for your purpose on this earth, to bring your kingdom from heaven. I forgive others as I have been forgiven. Not my will, but your will, be done on earth, as it is in heaven, this day, in my life, in Jesus’ name. Let it be so.
Go forth and be baptized
Observe the Sabbath and receive the Seal of God on your forehead, to protect you from judgment on earth, while you live through the tribulation. Yes, I said through it. He's not coming near to pull you out, you don't get to leave here alive to escape the tribulation; it's coming and you're in it. His wrath is not designed for you, but this promise to be protected in it, can only be accepted by observing the Sabbath. God said so, and you must believe him, and act on that belief, now, before the door closes. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.
