The Last Warning Message # 3

•

Christ Centered Prophecy

• One thing to remember is that Jesus gave the prophecy

• Jesus is the author of the book of Revelation• The Everlasting Gospel is the first of the three

angel’s messages• The faith of Jesus, as our challenge to duplicate,

is the last thing mentioned at the end of the Third angel’s Message.

• Jesus is the first and the last or the alpha and the omega in the book of Revelation.

The Last Warning Message

• Rev. 14:9-12 “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,

• 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: (Damnation, suffering and death at the second coming of Jesus and at end of Millennium)

• 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

• 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the

commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

The Attainments of the Saints

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

• 1. Keep the Commandments, Sabbath

• 2. Duplicating the faith of Jesus

Blessed are the Dead

• 14:13 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.

• A special blessing on last day martyrs.

The Last Warning Message

• Thus far we have studied the first and second angel’s messages. The third one is a warning to everyone in the world, if they do not follow the admonition that has been given in the first two messages, the Mark of the Beast will be upon them and they will be lost eternally. This is a call to forsake Babylonian Christianity and come out.

• First, the message is given with a loud voice.

•

If any man worship the beast and his image

• Rev. 13:14 tells us that it is United States, Protestantism, that is to make an image to the Beast. By tracing the Beast power through Daniel 7 and Revelation 13 we know the Beast power is the Roman Papal Church.

• How do you make an image to a religious institution? It must be something that has to do with religion. Thus we would have to see what the Papal Church has made popular in the world, that Protestantism has accepted, and enforces the world to accept, as Revelation 13:15 tells us the entire earth is involved in this image.

The Image

• What has the Papal Church made popular within Christianity that is contrary to scripture or the Law of God? That is the question….

• Let us take a look at her teachings and see what it might be. What could be enforced onto the entire world that would show homage to the Papal power?

Roman Catholic Dogma

The Pope is called “The Holy Father” “Another god on earth”• Infant Baptism • Pray to the dead Saints - especially to Mary• Transubstantiation (Priest can create his Creator)• Purgatory • None of the above would have an effect on the countries of the world.• There is only one doctrine that originated with the Papacy that is in all

Christianity and effects all the world, and it effects commerce also. This one is different.

• The Papacy has given to the world “Sunday” as a day of worship

The Image

• The reason the Bible is against Sunday sabbath is because it is contrary to the Law of God. To keep Sunday is to break the Law, the 4th Commandment, and to break the Law is a sin.

• The Papacy has given to the world Sunday as a day of worship and to keep Sunday instead of Sabbath is paying homage to the Papacy and recognizing her power and authority above the power and authority of God Himself.

• Here is where the image comes in. United States, Protestantism, has accepted Sunday as a day of worship. When United States makes a Sunday Law that will CONTROLL WORSHIP as well as commerce, (see Rev. 18) and the trading she does with every country in the world, then the image will be enforced.

An Image

• An image has to be identical to the original.

• The hours of the Catholic Sunday is from mid-night to mid-night.

• The Protestant Sunday is the same.

• The true Sabbath is from sunset to sunset.

Papal Authority \ God’s Authority

• The Papacy has given to the world Sunday as a day of worship and to keep Sunday instead of Sabbath is paying homage to the Papacy and recognizing her power and authority above the power and authority of God Himself.

“Catholic Belief” p.45Rev. Joseph Faa Di Bruno, D.D. (Catholic)

• “Through these two divine streams (the Bible and tradition) are in themselves, on account of their divine origin, of equal sacredness, and are both full of revealed truths, still, of the two, tradition is to us more clear and safe.”

God’s Authority

• The Ten Commandments – the fourth• Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. • Ex. 20:9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy

work: • 20:10 But the seventh day [is] the Sabbath of the

LORD thy God: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that [is] within thy gates:

• 20:11 For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.

Prompta Bibliotheca, Vol.vi, pp. 25-29

• The Pope is so great dignity and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God, and the vicar of God…

• The Pope is crowned with a triple crown, as king of heaven and of earth and of the lower regions….

Pope Leo XIII (1894)

• “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.”

• This statement bypasses Jesus and the Holy Spirit

1894

Papal Authority

• 15 Years Later - The Catholic Church

• The Council Laodicea (336)

• Changed the Sabbath into Sunday

• Their council, to them had more authority than God’s word spoken from Mt. Sinai, the Ten Commandments

Papal Authority?

• Sunday is well ingrained as the change from Sabbath, Saturday, to Sunday was done over 1600 years ago. The majority of Christians don’t even know of the change.

The ImageWebster’s Dictionary: image = exact likeness

The Papacy gave Sunday as a day of worship to the world. This is the only thing that the world has accepted from the Papacy. They made the change in the year 336, at the Council of Laodicea. The world is now familiar with Sunday as a day of worship for through the centuries it has been commonly kept without question by Catholics and Protestants alike. To make an image of this day of worship would be to make a law enforcing this unbiblical day of worship,demanding it to be kept or recognized even if for the benefit of world commerce.

This the Bible predicts will be done by Protestant America. (Rev. 13:14)

The Mark

• The Catholic Church has left their mark on the world. It is very evident. The Catholic Church is the Beast power revealed in the books of Daniel and Revelation. The Beast has a Mark and it is known as the Mark of the Beast. To know who the Beast power is, is half of the answer. To know that she has not given anything else to the world but Sunday is the other half of the answer.

Do the Roman Catholic members have any say in their Church leadership?

• The Pope elects the Cardinals and the Cardinals elect the Pope.

Quote by Father T. Enright,C.S.R.

“American Sentinal” N. Y. June 1, 1893, page173

• “The Bible says, remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day. The Catholic Church says, No! By my divine power I abolish the Sabbath and command you to keep holy the first day of the week. And lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic Church.”

• *****************************************

• What do you think of this statement?• Does the Pope have divine power?• How can his divine power contradict God’s divine power?

Note How This Statement Is Practiced

Is Mary really “a Goddess “

as the Catholic

Church Teaches?

THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

• Does the Roman Church have the power to put Mary in heaven?

• Does the Roman Church have the power to make Mary co-redemptive?

• Did the Roman Church have the power to put evolution in the place of creation?

• Did the Roman Church have the power to change three of God’s Ten Commandments?

Pope Pius XIII

• Encyclical by Pope Pius XIII

“The first three chapters of Genesis, it says, must be accepted as literally and historically true. The creation and fall happened exactly as reported there. There is no myth….”

*******************************

Pope John Paul II did not agree with Pius XII and accepted Evolution.

Assuming PowerTo assume such authority as to alter or change the eternal

Law of God is in actuality setting one self up above God, indicating that God was not wise enough to make a perfect Law.

This is a blasphemy. God tells us how and when to worship; we don’t tell Him.

Also when Protestant America makes a Sunday Law she likewise will be committing TREASON against God the same as did the Papacy, by making a law against His Law. NATIONAL APOSTASY will be recorded in the books of heaven against America at that time.

That will be when God’s mercy and grace will be withdrawn.Whenever you enforce a religious law, persecution follows on

those who do not agree.This act just precedes the seven last plagues at the end of the

world

•

The Wrath of God

• The wrath of God is the 7 last plagues and they are poured out without mixture of mercy.

• When the 7 last plagues come to an end, so does the world come to an end.

• Those who have the Mark of the Beast or receive the Image will be tormented day and night.

• This is why everyone is fearful of the Mark of the Beast.

“THE MARK OF THE BEAST”

• 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,

• 14:10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

What is the Mark of the Beast?

• 14:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

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

WHAT IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST?

• WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO EXPLAIN WHAT THE MARK IS?

• THE BIBLE IS THE ANSWER…..

THE MARK!!!!!

• Rev.14:12 Identifying the Saints• The Saints keep the Commandments• Those who don’t - have the Mark!!!!• This is God’s definition of what the Mark is…..• Rev. 14:9 “If any man….• Catholics or Protestants or Heathen

The Wrath of God

• The seven last plagues consist of the wrath of God on those who have the Mark of the Beast or accept the Image.

• The grievous sore, water into blood, the scorching heat of the sun, the plague of darkness, the greatest earthquake the world is ever seen.

• These plagues reduce drastically the population of the earth perhaps by billions

The Nations Were Angry

• Rev. 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

• The nations will be eliminating each other and in the process will be destroying the earth. Billions will be wiped off the face of the earth.

The Image

• It is the IMAGE that enforces the Mark.• Note where the Image comes from.• 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.

• 13:12 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.

• The image comes from another source than does the Mark.

THE IMAGE

Protestant America is predicted to make laws:• 1. The IMAGE,

• 2. CAN’T BUY OR SELL

• 3. THE DEATH DECREE

• The Image enforces the Sunday Law

• The IMAGE gives power to or enforces the MARK

• Thus Protestantism becomes the final persecuting power!

The Actual Fall of the Two Babylons

• At the same time!• 1.The Catholic Phase

– Daniel 11:45 “And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

– This will be the second deadly wound to the Papacy

• Daniel 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

Daniel 12:1

• This action takes place as probation comes to a close when Michael stands up.

The Fall of the Second Babylon

• The Protestant Phase– Revelation 18:8 – 19

• The demise of United States starts when she makes an image of the Mark or her Sunday Law.– The unbiblical Sunday Law causes the final

showdown and persecution will follow on those who uphold the Law of God.

The Two Babylons

• The Catholic and Protestant phases come to an end at about the same time or as probation closes.

• Catholicism in the Middle East

• Protestantism in America

THE TWO BABYLONS

• The fall of the two Babylon’s are very similar.

• Both Babylon’s fall because of religion

• Both Babylon’s fall quickly … suddenly\speedily

• The fall is permanent \ no recovery

Jeremiah 51:6 - 8

• Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this [is] the time of the LORD'S vengeance;.

• Rev. 18:2-4 Babylon is fallen…. Come out of her my people …. Be not partakers of her sins.

• 51:7 Babylon [hath been] a golden cup in the LORD'S hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.

• 51:8 Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed:

AFTER THE SUNDAY LAW

• The Sunday Law causes everyone in the world to decide for or against the Law of God.

• This will be the final decision for all mankind• After this decision there will be no one else to save. • This is when probationary time closes on mankind.• This is when the plagues start to fall on those who have the

Mark or the image and are still in Babylon.• At the end of the plagues comes the end of the world.

The Conclusion of the Plagues

• Rev.16:17 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.

• 16:18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, [and] so great.

• 16:19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

The great city was divided into three parts

• The three phases of Christianity are:• 1. Catholicism• 2. Greek Orthodox Church• 3. Protestantism• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~• 1. Catholicism• 2. Protestantism• 3. Spiritualism

PLUS ARMAGEDDON

• The Winding Down

of the Earth

Plague #7

THE SEVENTH PLAGUE

Isaiah 30:27,28

• Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning [with] his anger, and the burden [thereof is] heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

• 30:28 And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity:

The Saints“The Last Night on Earth”

• Isa. 30:29,30 “Ye shall have a song, as in the night [when] a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.

• 30:30 And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of [his] anger, and [with] the flame of a devouring fire, [with] scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.

• Hailstones are the last item on the agenda before Jesus appears in the clouds.
