I believe the Bible is the Word of God. I hold the acceptance of the Scriptures as the sole authority for faith, practice and the zeal to study it as one should, it is to be the light for all our thoughts, words, and actions.

In all of my research over the years, it always has been a question of mine, why does the entire church worship on Sunday? when in fact the bible tells us the seventh day is the hallowed and sanctified day to the Lord? (Gen. 2:3, Ex. 20:11, Heb. 4:4, Rev. 22:14).

I have studied many religious denominations in my search for God and to find how to best worship the Lord. What I found in my journey was very disturbing. There is a saying, "all roads lead to rome." My search started when I was taking a small seminary course that required the King James Bible, but I was using a Catholic Bible Authorized by Rome with the Imprimatur Seal. My course required me to answer a few question in the old testament, and when I searched the catholic bible, it was missing the entire verse that I needed to answer my test. The bible actually went from 9 to 11 and verse 10 was missing completely. This was a red flag for me. Why would the roman catholic church remove verses out of the bible? Another issue I had was the Ten Commandments. The KJV showed in the second commandment that having any type of engravin image and worshiping it, to it, or even giving it any type of veneration was considered an abomination to God, yet the roman catholic church removed that commandment from their bible and split the last commandment into two to make up for the missing commandment. This finding was my first jaw dropping find in my journey to find God. If they are so bold to change the very laws of God (Dan. 7:25), then what else have they changed?

In my ongoing research on this question I found that the true sabbath which is the seventh day (Saturday), not the first day (Sunday) was not changed by the early followers of Christ as many would have you believe. The Lords Seventh Day Sabbath was changed to Sunday by the first roman pope to make a compromise with the still roman pagans of the day to enter the roman church in order to unify the empire. The first Sunday law was created at this time and will become law again in the last days (Dan. 7:25) by this same beast. Sunday worship which now became law was enacted by Emperor Constantine on March, 321 A.D. and this was a forceable by death law to the early christians in order to compromise with the pagan "sun worship" practices to adopt the "Venerable day of the SUN" and get the pagans to enter the roman church. Constantine himself was also a Sun worshiper and it was not until his death that he was baptized. So the government put out a decree and outlawed the biblical sabbath-keeping practices in favor of man's law rather then the law of God Almighty (Matt. 15:9). As a Mark of God's right to rule, the Sabbath challenged Satan's boast that he would take God's place. Said the adversary,

Isa. 14:13-14, "I will exalt my throne above the stars of God. I will be like the most High"

When you do the math, Sunday = 1 and Roman Numeral 1 = i. Satan actually wanted to be worshiped. To accomplish this, he had to nullify God's claim as the rightful ruler. God's authority rested on His claim to be the Creator, and the Sabbath was the mark of that authority (Gen. 2:3, Job 37:7). By destroying the Sabbath, Satan would prepare the way to set up a counterfeit government based on counterfeit claims of authority symbolized by a counterfeit day of worship.

The Apostasy Today

When I researched deeper into this apostasy, I found these quotes direct from the Catholic leaders themselves:

"The pope is the supreme judge of the law of the land... He is the vicegerent (replacement) of Christ, who is not only a Priest forever, but also King of kings and Lord of lords.", La Civilia Cattolica, March 18, 1871, quoted in Leonard Woosely Bacaon, An inside view of the Vatican Council (American Tract Society ed.), p.229

"Union of minds, therefore, requires, together with a perfect accord in the one faith, complete submission and obedience of will to the Church and to the Roman Pontiff, as to God Himself", Pope Leo XIII. Encyclical Letter Sapientia Christiana, Jan 10 1890

"We [the pope] hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.", Pope Leo XIII. Apostolic Exhortation Praeclara Gratulationis Publicae, June 20, 1894

"This is our last lesson to you: receive it, engrave it in your minds, all of you: by God's commandment salvation is to be found nowhere but in the Church; the strong and effective instrument of salvation is none other than the Roman Pontificate.", Pope Leo XIII. Allocution for the 25th anniversary of his election, February 20, 1903; Papal Teachings: The Church, Benedictine Monks of Solesmes, St. Paul Editions, Boston, 1962, page 653).

"Sunday is our MARK of authority..... The church is above the Bible, and this transference of sabbath observance is proof of that fact." - The Catholic Record, London, Ontario, September 1, 1923.

"If protestants would follow the Bible, they should worship God on the Sabbath Day, that is Saturday. In keeping Sunday they are following a law of the Catholic Church." Albert Smith, chancellor of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, replying for the cardinal in a letter of Feb. 10, 1920.

"The observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the [Catholic] church." Monsignor Louis Segur, Plain Talk About the Protestantism of Today (1868), p. 213

"Sunday...is purely a creation of the Catholic Church." -- American Catholic Quarterly Review, January 1883.

"Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church." -- Priest Brady, in an address reported in The News, Elizabeth, New Jersey, March 18, 1903.

What does the Bible say about Salvation?

Matt. 24:5, "For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many."

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."

Acts 4:12, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."

Acts 10:43, "To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins."

1 Tim. 2:5, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus."

So my extensive research found not only the biblical sabbath truth, praise the Lord, but also who the Beast of Revelation really is. But another shocking reality hit home as I was pondering over this dark truth. The entire world as we know it is following a law created by the beast of Revelation! Dan. 7:25 speaks of the beast changing times and laws. The change from Saturday to Sunday is a time, and removing and changing of the Ten Commandments is the law which Daniel speaks of. From this point on in my journey I made the decision to follow the bible and the bible only. I turned away from the Sunday keeping churches and became a Sabbatarian and started following the biblical sabbath.

Sabbatariansm is a re-awakening of the christian movement that attempts to reconstruct the earliest forms of christianity and go back to the real biblical roots of how to live our lives and worship our Lord God. Sabbatarian requires that christians hold all 10 Commandments as their way of life including the keeping the Seventh Day Sabbath (Ex. 20:8) and to hold to the Three Angels Message (Rev. 14) which is a requirement of obedience in the 4th Commandment to worship God on his day, not the Popes day of worship which sadly many today ignore as the bible states,

Matt. 15:9, "But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men."

Luke 12:1, "...Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy."

1 Tim. 1:7, "Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm."

2 Tim. 4:3-4, "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."

Heb. 5:12, "For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat."

2 Pet. 2:1-3, "But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not."

What Is To Come

Cain and Abel represent two classes that will exist in the world till the close of time. One class avail themselves of the appointed sacrifice for sin; the other venture to depend upon their own merits; theirs is a sacrifice without the virtue of divine mediation, and thus it is not able to bring man into favor with God. It is only through the merits of Jesus that our transgressions can be pardoned. Those who feel no need of the blood of Christ, who feel that without divine grace they can by their own works secure the approval of God, are making the same mistake as did Cain. If they do not accept the cleansing blood, they are under condemnation. There is no other provision made whereby they can be released from the thralldom of sin. The class of worshipers who follow the example of Cain includes by far the greater portion of the world; for nearly every false religion has been based on the same principle that man can depend upon his own efforts for salvation. It is claimed by some that the human race is in need, not of redemption, but of development that it can refine, elevate, and regenerate itself. As Cain thought to secure the divine favor by an offering that lacked the blood of a sacrifice, so do these expect to exalt humanity to the divine standard, independent of the atonement. The history of Cain shows what must be the results. It shows what man will become apart from Christ. Humanity has no power to regenerate itself. It does not tend upward, toward the divine, but downward, toward the satanic. Christ is our only hope. "There is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." "Neither is there salvation in any other." Acts 4:12.

One should also reflect the life of Noah who was the only one chosen by God to hear about his wrath to come upon the sinful earth. Noah was righteous in the eyes of God because he secluded himself and his family from the traditional sinful lifestyle of that time. Today we should follow his example and should not conform to this world, nor associate with the things and man made traditions of this world.

Matt. 4:8-9, "Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me."

Mark 4:19, "And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful."

Luke 9:62, "And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

John 15:19, "If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you."

Rom. 12:2, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

Jas. 4:4, "Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."

Matt. 24:37, "But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."

With almost the entire world as we see it today, many denominations and organizations following man made traditions, worshiping God in ways that conflict with God's commandments (Matt. 15:9), we must consider our church to be the Lord Jesus Christ and all those of our brothers and sisters who follow what God himself has called us to live by,

Matt. 19:17, "...but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments."

1 Cor. 3:16-17, "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."

Rev. 14:12, "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

Rev. 22:14, "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."

We should hold the acceptance of the scriptures as the sole authority for faith, practice and the zeal to study it as one should, which is the mark of a genuine christian. We should not follow any of the traditions of men, nor follow the traditional Sunday worship which became law and will become law again in the last days,

Rev. 14:9-10, "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"

The ones behind this change of God's law's will deceive all her followers and will rise them up to go after people like us who keep the commandments of God as it is written,

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."

War will be ordered on the true saints, all who are obedient to God's law. It is up to us in these last days to help spread the final message of the three angel's on the biblical truth of God's law and requirements to all who will hear.

Three Angels Message's

Rev. 14:6-12, "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. And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. 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."

We are to keep and teach the Commandments of God and also keep the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ who will deliver us to the Father in the end.

Rom. 12:12, "Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer."

May God Bless you, your family, and keep you all safe from the coming storm.
You are all in my prayers daily.

Yours In Christ
Min. Thomas J. Allen
