CLIMATE CHANGE, THE PANDEMIC AND THE BLUE LAWS

CLIMATE CHANGE DECEPTION


*WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE*?


change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.


*WHEN DID CLIMATE CHANGE MOVEMENT BEGIN*?


Climate change is one of the Environmental movements.

Activism related to climate change began in the 1990s, when major environmental organizations became involved in the discussions about climate, mainly in the UNFCCC framework. In the 2000s several climate-specific organizations were founded, such as 350.org, Energy Action Coalition, and the Global Call for Climate Action.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international environmental treaty adopted on 9 May 1992 and opened for signature at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro(Brazil) from 3 to 14 June 1992. It then entered into force on 21 March 1994, after a sufficient number of countries had ratified it.


The Climate Change movement gained momentum in 2009 during the UNFCC summit, when people attended a march in Copenhagen on December 12 calling for a global agreement on climate.

with more than 5,400 rallies and demonstrations took place around the world simultaneously.


*Their Objectives*:

• To curb the amount of dangerous gas that are being emitted by companies

• To reduce the number of natural disasters through regulations of fossil fuel.

• To stop Nuclear testing and also stop other countries from acquiring nuclear weapons.

• To care for our common home, and to protect the earth from being destroyed.

These are some of their objectives ๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿผ


They claim that if we don't take care of the earth{mother earth} that the earth would turn against us one day,  this world would become unbearable and even uninhabitable some day.

They claim that we have only limited time to save the planet; they even said in 30 years time.

Here๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿผ is another article that was released last two months, that mentioned 2050.

 *But what does the bible say about all the natural disasters and all the changes that we're seeing in our world today*?

"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be *famines*, and pestilences, and *earthquakes, in divers places*" ( Matthew 24:7)

"And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, *the sea and the waves roaring*; 26men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for *the powers of the heavens will be shaken* ( Luke 21:25-26)

From these bible texts we can see that what the world is calling Climate change  is what the Lord had already told us that would happen in these endtimes--

*these are signs of His second coming*. 

But the scientists said no, it's because of Climate change.

The most disappointing thing  is that even those who call themselves Christians are  in this Climate change movement.

What are they thinking?

That they can save the earth from being destroyed because of their actions against climate change?

The Christians are the ones who are supposed to be telling the people and the scientists that these are the signs of the second coming of Christ and not Climate change; rather they're joining them in the fight against Climate change, and this is totally opposite of what the bible says.

"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the *earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up*.

11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness" (2 Peter 3:10-11)

Job  38:22-23

*Have you entered the storehouses of the snow*,

*Or have you seen the storehouses of the hail*,

*Which I have reserved for the time of distress*,

*For the day of war and battle* ?

 Psalm 147:17-18

*He casts forth His ice as fragments*;

*Who can stand before His cold*?

He sends forth His word and melts them*;

*He causes His wind to blow and the waters to flow*.


As we can  see,  the extreme weather: extreme cold, the ice,  bush  fires, tsunamis, hailstorm, earthquakes, landslides, tornadoes etc... all come from God.

 When He sent  fire and brimstone from heaven to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah,  was it climate change?

When He  opened the ground and water came from the ground and from above to swallow the whole world during the time of Noah was it Climate change?( 2 Peter  2:5)

I see so many Christians, creating awareness and  lecturing people about climate change, instead of lecturing them about the events that precedes the  second coming of Christ. 

Haggi 2:17

*I struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, yet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord*.

The Lord wants us to repent and turn to Him when we witness all these things. 

He has not changed, the way He dealt with people in the past, thesame way He is still dealing with us today.

Haggi 2:17

*I struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, yet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord*. 

The Lord wants us to repent and turn to Him when we start seeing all these things;

He has not changed, the way He dealt with people in the past, thesame way He is still dealing with us today.


The bible says, what has happened before will happen again: nothing is new under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 1:9-11

*What has happened before will happen again. What has been done before will be done again*. *There is nothing new in the whole world*. 10 " *Look," they say, "here is something new!" But no, it has all happened* before, *long before we were born*. 11 *No one remembers what has happened in the past, and no one in days to come will remember what happens between now and then*. 

He first  sends His warning signs(judgements) before the actual judgments that would destroy the unrepentant.  The bible says that the earth and everything in it shall be burnt up, the elements shall be melted.

Why should we be struggling to save a planet that is already doomed to be be destroyed? ( Iam.not saying we should intentionally destroy the earth, we should be good stewards as much as we can)..but the truth is that, no matter what we do to save the earth,  it can't be salvaged..this earth is not meant for us to live in it forever. 

It's expiry date is coming and that is why we all must strive to enter Into the New Heavens and the New earth that God has promised to make. Everything here is a mirage and temporal, but God's promises are everlasting.  Amen! Why should we be struggling to save a planet that is already doomed to be be destroyed? It only means that we don't trust God's words. His words doesn't come back to him void, but it must accomplish it's purpose.

Instead of joining the world to save the planet ( which we know that there is a hidden agenda in the climate change movement) rather the word of God says that we should prepare ourselves; we should be of Holy conversation and godliness, the bible says we should not focus on this world, because the earth and all that is in it are passing away, rather we should focus on the New earth and New heavens that the Lord will make wherein dwells righteousness.


"Nevertheless we, *according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness*. 14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, *without spot, and blameless*.( 2 Peter 3:13-14)


This is what the Lord expects from us: To live a Holy life and to be eagerly waiting for his second coming and the new earth and new heavens that he would make. .

 It is my prayer that we all will start seeing this world as a mirage, and also see ourselves as visitors here, so that we can prepare ourselves for a better home where there will be no more sorrows, death, pain or suffering in Jesus name Amen.


 

Last time we saw that Ecumenism and the one world Religion movement is orchestrated by the devil, and his human agents here on earth are busy carrying out his plans.

We saw that the false trinity:

The devil

The beast

The false prophet

Are working together to achieve one purpose; ans that purpose is to depose God's laws: to trample on the Commandments of God and replace them with a manmade commandments (please read the article on the "Ecumenism and the One World Religion on this blog).

This, they have been trying to do for centuries, very soon  we all shall be tested just like the three Hebrew boys. Are we going to follow the Law of God, or are we going to follow the law of man?


Their Strategy:

During our last study i listed some of the events that would take place these last days and how Satan would work with them in other to achieve his evil agenda.

Natural disasters

Pestilences 

Famines

Wars/insurgencies 

Spiritism

False Signs and Wonders

Love of many waxing cold..etc..

These are events that have already been prophesied in the bible that would occur in these last days..but the devil would try to use them to achieve his plans.


ORDER OUT OF CHAOS

The motto of the Thirty-third Degree freemasons is "ORDO AB CHAO" which is Latin for Order Out of Chaos.

Hegelian Dialectics’ is a key component of the Luciferian system, which is not just a religious system, but a political system; the Hegelian principle is summed-up in their creed “Ordo Ab Chao” (Latin, Order from Chaos).

Such methodology has been highly effective for the elite-ruling class (namely the high ranking Jesuits and Freemasons), who leverage a whole host of different religious and political powers to gain greater dominance. This dialectic principle has been brought to a whole new dimension by the Jesuit Order, who were commissioned by the Pope to combat the Protestant Reformation at all cost.

 This is how they operate:

1. Create a problem or act on an already existing problem

2. Create fear in the minds of the people

3. Profer a solution to those problems.

Through these means they would achieve their  New World Order.(NWO)

Where they would excercise power and control over  the people and their resources.( One World Government & Religion.

 No buying or selling unless you comply with their New Order.

We can see how they're promoting the climate change today, and this is brought to the fore front by the United Nations( UN) and spear headed by the Pope.

 *The United Nations 2030 Agenda For Sustainable Growth*

The Sustainable Development Goals are a universal call to action to end poverty, *protect the planet* and improve the lives and prospects of everyone, everywhere. The *17 Goals were adopted by all UN Member States in 2015*, as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development which set out a 15-year plan to achieve the Goal, climate change emergency is no 13  out of the 17 goals that have been set out to tackle by the UN by the year 2030.

"At the core of the 2020-2030 decade is the need for action to tackle growing poverty, empower women and girls, and address the *climate emergency*". And this must be done by 2030.


*Pope Francis And The Climate Change/Environment*

Laudato si' is the second encyclical of Pope Francis. The encyclical has the subtitle "on care for our common home". In it, the pope critiques consumerism and irresponsible development, laments *environmental degradation and global warming*, and calls *all people of the world to take "swift and unified global action*." 

In 2015 Pope Francis  published  his eco-encyclical Laudato Si, the pontiff appears increasingly disappointed in the way the environmental manifesto been received.

"In two separate messages published last year 2019, Pope Francis appeared to suggest that the global resolve to *combat climate change and other ecological threats his encyclical hoped to produce is failing*, due a lack of commitment from the parties involved" ( Crux News)

*The New Age Movement And The Climate Change/Environmental movement*

"Maitreya and the Masters will show us that the only way to bring about peace is to create justice; and the only way to establish justice is to share the resources of the world, equitably, among all humanity according to need. Maitreya has formulated a number of simple priorities that demand immediate and worldwide attention. These cover the essential needs of every man, woman and child: an adequate supply of food; housing for all; access to health care and education as universal rights. *Another top priority is the restoration of the environment*"


The restoration of the environment is one of their uttermost priorities. If you check carefully, Maitreyah's priorities are the same with the UN, the same with the Pope the same with the New age movement. Remember the last time we talked about the One World Religion Movement? We also saw that the unification of all the Religions was the goal of this Maitreyah, the New age movement and the Pope.. How come they all have the same goal,and  the same priorities?

In case you did not follow up with our last study on who Maitreyah is, he is the so called "World Teacher" the Mesisah of the New Age or New World. ( the False Christ)

According to the New Age Movement "He has been known for generations by all of the major religions. Christians know him as the Christ, and expect his imminent return. Jews await him as the Messiah; Hindus look for the coming of Krishna; Buddhists expect him as Maitreya Buddha; and Muslims anticipate the Imam Mahdi or Messiah".

*Maitreyah On The Environment*

"The environment will become the number one issue throughout the world*. This growth in concern is the result of increasing Self-awareness. There is a link between the inner and the outer environment: the moment you become aware of yourself this awareness then leads you to look into the outer environment".

"There are also connections between the negative forces generated by humanity and what happens in nature. These connections will be increasingly seen and understood as such. Many natural disasters are responses to human activities".

"The use of nuclear energy also generates repercussions under the Law of Cause and Effect. There is a difference between using energy within its natural evolutionary base, and manipulating energy. The latter leads invariably to trouble because natural equilibrium is disturbed. A windmill uses the power of the wind to generate energy. A 'controlled' underground nuclear explosion manipulates energy, disturbing the earth's balance. This can and does result in earthquakes".

So we a can see that the most important issue to Maitreyah( the false New Age Christ) Is the Environment.

 *Christians/Protestants And The Climate Change Or Enviromrntal Movement*

As American preacher Tony Campolo points out,  "Christians have ‘allowed the new age movement to highjack the environmental movement and make it their own*. The result is the minute we start talking about the environment evangelicals begin to say, “*Wait a minute, you sound like a new ager*”. The fact that new age people have committed themselves to something that really belongs to the Church does not mean that the Church should not be involved in this".

He, Tony Campolo urged the world wide Church to join in the Climate change movement to reclaim what belongs to the Church.

It is true indeed that the Climate change movement was orchestrated by the New Agers. This is the same as the Luciferians, the Free masons..they're all one. The United Nations principles are founded on these. The New Age/The Luciferians and the Free Masons are the ones in charge of the UN. It is their Agenda that the UN upholds.

Do you know that the United Nations headquarters is in the United States of America (in the state of New York)  And the head quarters of the Luciferians/New Agers that was founded by Alice Bailey is in that  same New York and in the same building with the UN.

The Lucis Trust is the Publishing House which *prints and disseminates United Nations material*. ... At one time, *the Lucis Trust office in New York was located at 666 United Nations Plaza* and is a *member of the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations under a slick program called "World Goodwill*" The name of the company is Lucis Trust publishing company; a publishing company, *initially named Lucifer Publishing Company*, was established by Alice and Foster Bailey. She wrote so many books through her master ( a demon definitely) about the New Age and their Agendas.


So we can se what the UN stands for, we can see that they are all one, though they come with different name. They have one purpose, one agenda, just as God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit have one Purpose, so is theirs.


Satan has always been an imitator from the very beginning. We are not to follow the UN's agenda....it's deceitful.  Even  though sometimes it may look like these forces are not United..but I deed they are.


Because even though they appear not to agree with each other in some cases, their purpose is still the same. 

"And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:

26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?


 *The Deception Of Climate Change Movement*.( Sunday Law and Sun worship in disguise)


We have seen how connected these people are:

The pope

The UN

The New Age

Some Of The Protestants have also joined them; all these are part of the one world movement/ NWO, to unify the whole world under one purpose, so that they can implement Lucifer's plans these last days. All these are strategically set up 


*What is Sunday Laws/ Blue Laws*?

Blue Laws according to free dictionary:

1. A law designed to prohibit or limit the transaction of commercial business or the holding of recreational activities on Sundays.

2. One of a body of laws in colonial New England designed to enforce certain moral standards and particularly to prohibit specified forms of entertainment or recreation on Sundays.

Blue laws, also known as Sunday laws, are laws designed to restrict or ban some or all Sunday activities for religious or secular reasons, particularly to promote the observance of a day of worship or rest.

Blue laws may also restrict shopping or ban sale of certain items on specific days, most often on Sundays *in the western world*. Blue laws are *enforced in parts of the United States and Canada as well as some European countries*, *particularly in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, and Norway, keeping most stores closed on Sundays*.( Wikipedia)

*Sunday Laws/Blue Laws In The United States Of America*

The Blue Laws/ Sunday Law was first enacted by the Puritans in 17th century.

In the United States, the U.S. Supreme Court has held blue laws as constitutional numerous times, citing secular bases such as securing a day of rest for mail carriers,[1] as well as protecting workers and families, in turn contributing to societal stability and guaranteeing the free exercise of religion.[2][3][4] The origin of the blue laws also partially stems from religion, particularly the prohibition of Sabbath desecration in Christian Churches following the first-day Sabbatarian tradition. *Both labour unions and trade associations have historically supported the legislation of blue laws*. *Supreme Court RulesBlue Laws Are Constitutional*.

The Court, while *acknowledging the religious origins of the Sunday blue laws, held that they were constitutional*. Much of the religious language had been removed from the statute — excluding a single remaining reference to the “Lord’s day” — and many of the restrictions had been lifted. The effect of the Court’s decision was to leave regulation of Sunday activities to the states, resulting in rules that vary by county or municipality. In the 21st century,  states have begun to ease restrictions and in some cases repeal Sunday blue laws altogether.


While some secular states eliminate blues laws, some states still have such “Sunday” laws on the books. So, we have seen that this Sunday/Blue Law is not a myth; it is real.. It was enforced a long time ago, and was implemented, people who violated the laws were punished accordingly.

I read an article on Crux news where the writer was promoting the return of Sunday Law in America, I read some comments under the comment section and I saw people who said they lived during the 50s and 60s that the blue Law was very real. One commentator even said that he and his dad were punished because they drove on a Sunday. Friends, if this happened before, what makes you think it wouldn't happen again?

Some people say, the world is so civilized and such a thing can't happen in this era..I just laugh... Has God changed?

Has Satan Changed, it is the same old serpent, who is cunning and subtle. Many people opposed the blue law because it sounded too religious.. It seemed the law favoured only Christians who observed the First day of the week Sabbath ( Sunday) So they argue that it violates the *first amendment law*( no imposing of religious laws on the citizen; freedom of worship)

The Devil is so smart, off course he is going to present his false Sabbath to the world in a way that it would be universally accepted. He is going to present it in such a way that it would look so good and make much sense to even the lay man.

*Today, the world is confused, Natural disasters is on the increase.

Pestilences

Poverty/Famines

Insurgencies

Hatred etc..

All these things were foretold in the bible..

But the Devil is making use of them to deceive people and to achieve his aim. Remember Order Out Of Chaos? We have  said earlier that they achieve their goal  by creating a chaos and then profer a solution, or they take advantage  of the available chaos or problems on ground; over hype them in order to create fear in the minds of people, and then when they profer a solution the people would accept their solution without much opposition.


They achieve these by:

1. *Sponsoring the media to promote the chaos*;

They report the news of what is happening around the world so often than usual.

A typical example is the Climate change matter.

When ever you turn on the TV all you will see is Climate change, climate change; how the earth will be destroyed in a distant future if humans don't take action to combat Climate change.

Now look at this:

Alice Bailey the New Age Writer wrote this:

●USE MEDIA TO PROMOTE AND CHANGE MINDSET

*Alice Bailey said the greatest channel you need to use to change human attitude is media. Use the press, the radio, T.V, cinema*. This is from Alice Bailey's 10 point plan for the New World Order. 

1a. *Broadcasting the spread of a pandemic*

If you notice carefully, whenever you turn on the News, especially the international News all what you will see is  Corona Virus, this, Corona Virus that...

Creating more fears in the lives of people.

2. *Sponsoring or Instigating Mass Protest/Marching*.

They Sponsor or instigate protests.. They tell the masses to fight for their right, to stand up carry placards and march on the streets until the Government listens to them. This one is so shocking because they're already succeeding in their plans..through these protests, many people get to know about the situation and even join or support in the protest.


A good example of this is the Climate change protest which Greta Thunberg is involved in. Pope Francis, the world leaders are solidly behind this protests, and they even encourage her and they call on others to join in this protest The UN and the Eu are all together in this.

Just read this:

Huge climate change concerts planned

*The world needs to know about the dangers inherent in global warming. To bring these issues to the attention of a global audience a series of climate change concerts is being planned for 7 July 2007*. It is hoped that the worldwide concert link-up will bring the problem of climate change to an audience of some 2 billion across the world – a bigger event even than Live Aid.

The event will show co-ordinated film, music and television events in seven cities including London, Washington DC, Shanghai, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town and Kyoto, *with major broadcasters and media owners taking part to extend public awareness of global warming*.( share magazine international) a New age magazine

 *CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE SUNDAY LAW*.

The foremost advocate for climate change is POPE FRANCIS. He has become a moral force mobilising statesmen, presidents, environmentalist, religious leaders, scientist, etc. in adopting measures aim at safeguarding our planets. In his latest encyclical, (A letter from the Pope explaining his teachings) he blamed human greed and selfishness for damaging the planet. He called on richer countries of the world to make changes in lifestyle and energy consumption, in order to avert the unprecedented destruction of the ecosystem.

But behind this concern for the environment, lies a subtle motive of world domination, expressed in this case, in the promulgation of a universal SUNDAY LAW, that will make rest and WORSHIP on SUNDAY COMPULSORY.  While lamenting the slow pace of progress towards combating climate change, the Pope called for the formation of a ‘Supranational’ body that will enforce climate change measures.

 The following reasons have been put forward by the papacy and others as the reasons while a UNIVERSAL SUNDAY LAW should be made compulsory.

1. A weekly Sunday Sabbath which will amount to 52 days in a year, will mean abstaining from any economic or commercial activities. This will go a long way in protecting the environment by reducing the pollution that results from such activities.

2. A weekly compulsory Sunday rest day, will promote and enhance family life/values as parents will be able to spend quality time with their families.

3. A Sunday Sabbath will enable man to appreciate the spiritual aspects of life, redirecting his soul away from materialistic pursuits that does not offer peace or happiness.

4. A weekly universal Sabbath rest (Sunday) will restore the dignity of labour by recognising workers’ rights to balance living.

5. A universal enforceable Sunday law will help safeguard our environment , thus promoting a common good for everyone

6. It will meet with divine favour in obedience to God’s commandments that recommends a day of rest for mankind

7. Factor into our DNA is the need for a weekly rest by our Creator. Thus a universal Sunday Sabbath will promote healthy lifestyle

 The aforementioned reasons are captured in the following quotations made by leading world figures across diverse sections of human endeavour.

∆. The Guardian in Support of Sunday Sabbath*.

"One thing we can easily do to achieve this goal: we can declare Sunday to be a fossil fuel-free day or a low-carbon day or at least an energy-saving day. We can start this week, this month or in 2010. We can start individually and collectively. The long journey to cut carbon dioxide emissions can start in the here and now

"Not long ago Sunday used to be a day of rest, a day of spiritual renewal, a day for families to come together, but we have changed Sunday from a day of rest to a day of shopping, flying and driving. However, in the context of excessive carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere, which are bringing catastrophic upheavals, we can and should *restore Sunday to a day for Gaia*, a day for the Earth". ..Hmmmm, did we notice the word Gaia there?This is serious; 

What or who is Gaia?

 Ancient Greek Mythology.

is the personification of the Earth[3] and one of the Greek primordial deities. Gaia is the ancestral mother of all life. ( The earth goddess) Remember the Pachamama, the earth goddess that the Amazon people brought during the Bishop synod in Rome? Remember Pope Francis bowed to that figurine. Remember Pope Francis is his statement during the heat of Corona Virus outbreak( April , said this;

"There is a Spanish saying that is very clear about this," he said. "It goes: 'God always forgives; we humans sometimes forgive, and sometimes not; the earth never forgives.' The earth does not forgive: if we have despoiled the earth, its response will be very ugly. *The same Pope asked his members to confess ecological sins*

https://www.thetablet.co.uk/news/12255/catholics-urged-to-confess-sins-against-environment


This is clearly Earth Worship, Nature Worship, which the sun is the head of these other gods. Worship of the Sun and the earth( which is also the worship of the Sun and moon goddess: The goddess of fertility and life etc..) In ancient times, Gaia was mainly worshiped alongside Demeter and as a part of the cult of Demeter and does not seem to have had a separate cult. Being a chthonic deity, black animals were sacrificed to her:

[Sacrifices to the gods as witnesses of an oath :] Bring two lambs : *let one be white and the other black for Gaia* (Earth) and *Helios (Sun)*. [N.B. Chthonic Gaia receives a black animal, heavenly Helios a white one.]( Wikipedia)

 We were also told that the protestants in America, together with the American Government would one day clasps hands with the papacy to bring about the enforcement of the Sunday Law.

"When Protestant churches shall unite with the secular power to sustain a false religion, for opposing which their ancestors endured the fiercest persecution, then will the papal sabbath be enforced by the combined authority of church and state. There will be a national apostasy, which will end only in national ruin".—Evangelism, 235 (1899). 

"When the state shall use its power to enforce the decrees and sustain the institutions of the church—then will Protestant America have formed an image to the papacy, and there will be a national apostasy which will end only in national ruin".—The S.D.A. Bible Commentary 7:976 (1910).

∆. As American preacher Tony Campolo points out, Christians have ‘allowed the new age movement to highjack the environmental movement and make it their own. 

This American pastor is calling on the rest of the Church to redouble their efforts in combating Climate change.

*CLIMATE CHANGE COVID 19 AND THE SUNDAY LAW*

remember we talked about Order out of chaos, and how the Elites achieve their plans through this means? Also remember in our previous study, we said that many of the events listed in the bible as end time signs would be used by the devil in these last days?

Example:

Famine

Pestilences (diseases)

Natural disasters

Wars/insurgencies 

Hatred, love of many waxing cold. 

Spiritism

Etc...

COVID-19: And The Sunday Law.

 Corona Virus has been the catalyst for some very rapid movements and changes in our world. But, in all this, one idea, one solution seems to be rising through the media; bombardment of Corona Virus. The idea of a Sunday rest is making its way to the top.

The Scientists are saying that they have observed a tremendous decrease of Carbon monoxides because of the lockdown. Because of the lockdown pollution over the respective cities of China and Italy even India  has dropped drastically.  The ozone layer, we have been told is repairing itself.


 *India’s air is clean again because of the drastic lock down measures imposed by President Modi*.

The Corona Virus Pandemic helped to cub Climate Change, but the effect won't last for long because businesses and movements will soon resume, only a longer lasting restrictions like the Covid 19 restrictions can do the job.

Hmmm, are you thinking what I am thinking?

*What is that long lasting solution*?

*Sunday/Blue laws*.

Emissions declined, but it won’t last

∆ "The new Nature climate change study predicts that if some restrictions are kept throughout the whole of 2020 annual emissions reductions would reach 7.5%.

This would, in theory, be great news for the environment, *especially if we could maintain it for years to come*. After all, in order to meet the Paris Agreement target of limiting global warming to 1.5℃, we need to reduce global CO₂ emissions by 7.6% per year between 2020 and 2030.


∆ Now look at this, From Crisis Magazine; this is what the Catholics are asking for: A Sunday Law/Blue laws.


∆ "*During America’s finally-abating coronavirus quarantine, our nation, at least outwardly, seemed to have gained a more noiseless, contemplative, revivifying spirit*". 


●*TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO* – “Let’s keep Sunday sacred – SUNDAY IS the soul of the nation. It is more than just a fanatical religious preoccupation. There is a reason why the day was woven into the fabric of our society. We have to save Sunday … Let us keep the sacredness of Sunday in its rightful place, as central to the resolution of problems in our nation. We have to preserve the order of things or the disorder with destroy us. Let’s save Sunday for our nation’s sake!” 

https://newsday.co.tt/2021/02/27/lets-keep-sunday-sacred/


● This is what the Prime minister of Barbados  said, this was after she read a book that was given to her by  a Catholic Bishop, written  by Pope Francis ( Let Us Dream) January 2021๐Ÿ‘‡

“I believe that … whether you are Christian or whether you belong to another religion, we are a country that literally believes in a higher force. And I hope that we can collectively, as a nation, pause on Sunday at midday for five minutes for us to pray, for us to meditate, for us to reflect, to do whatever you do best.

“And I'm not talking just to the people who are accustomed to going to church. I'm talking about all of us, because youngsters will tell you about the higher force and tell you about Jah and all of those things, but I want us to do that on Sunday, while recognising that for the full two weeks (February 3 to 17, we should) reflect, relax, renew.”

I know some of us, still don't believe in anything called Sunday law or blue Laws. This law was passed a long time ago in America, and even in Europe  there was a law binding people on Sundays.

*In 1961 the Supreme court ruled that the Sunday/blue laws can not be repealed, because it is  in their constitution*.

What!!!

So the only thing they did was to allow the Sates to decide what they want to do, weather to uphold it or repeal it.

But it is a NATIONAL LAW, it has not been repudiated. So what makes you think they cannot bring it back? Take a look at this; please try and read this article:

∆ "Nevertheless, Americans in those early quarantine days—after the haze of their Netflix-binge had evaporated—*woke up with a surprised appreciation for what earlier generations had considered normal: Sunday laws, otherwise known as blue laws*.  As America returns to normality, *we should consider these laws and their manifold benefits afresh*".

Here is the link.

https://www.crisismagazine.com/2020/bring-back-the-blue-laws

It's not a new law, it is something that has always been there, just need to be enforced.

*More and more people are beginning to see and believe that an enforced rest may be beneficial to not only the people but to the world*. 

Can you see their strategy?

*India to shutdown every Sunday because of Covid19*

https://m-timesofindia-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/m.timesofindia.com/city/meerut/from-tomorrow-every-sunday-will-see-complete-shutdown-in-ups-muzaffarnagar/amp_articleshow/76360885.cms?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQFKAGwASA%3D#aoh=15966610211899&amp_ct=1596661051835&csi=1&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From%20%251%24s


*SUNDAY THE COMMON  GOOD OR  CATHOLIC SOCAIL  DOCTRINE*?

The Roman Catholic Church is the First Beast, she is the power that Changed God's laws and times

Daniel 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*: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time".

We said this power changed the Law of God by Removing the second commandment from their catechism  and bringing into the church images and idols which they bow down to, and this clearly is against the Second commandment, not to make any graven image or bow down to it. ( Exodus 20:2-3)  

At the beginning of this power She transfered the fourth commandment which is the Sabbath from the last day of the week (7th day) to the First day of the week which God never sanctified. The Commandment clearly states: *On the Seventh day(7) God rested from all his works and rested on that day*.

This was transferred to the first day of the week which is the day of their sun god, the Lord's day( the unconquerable sun)


The First Sunday Law By Constantine.

"On the venerable Day of the Sun let the magistrates and people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be closed."( The edict of Constantine 321 AD)

   This power enjoyed world adulation and supremacy during the dark ages when there was a Union of Church and State; because of this absolute power they had they persecuted the Protestants who refused to abide by their doctrines.

 *Catholic Social Doctrine/Common Good. 

"However, over the centuries, *the Church, by the light of the Gospel, has developed fundamental SOCIAL PRINCIPLES* that can help us move forward in preparing the future that we need. Principles such as the dignity of the person, the notion of the *common good*, the preferential option for the poor, the universal destination of goods, solidarity, subsidiarity, *care for our common home*, the Pope says, express the virtues of faith, hope and love in different ways". ( Vatican News.  Pope Francis at general audience July 5,2020)


What is the ‘common good’ that the Vatican wants in this world?

“In respecting RELIGIOUS LIBERTY and the COMMON GOOD OF ALL, Christians should seek recognition of SUNDAYS and the Church’s holy days as LEGAL HOLIDAYS.” (Catholic Catechism, #2188) So when the Pope and leaders speak about uniting on ‘common good’, what are they really pushing for? The mark of Papal Rome – the Sunday rest law".

*What the Virgin said in one of her apparitions About Sunday* 

https://aleteia.org/2019/09/19/why-was-the-virgin-mary-crying-at-la-salette/

Please watch video, Mary was crying because people are not keeping Sunday Holy, people are doing their businesses and working on Sundays.

*The Catholic's Authority*

"No where in the Bible is it stated that worship should be changed from Saturday to Sunday...Now the Church...instituted, by God’s authority, Sunday as the day of worship. This same Church, by the same divine authority, taught the doctrine of Purgatory long before the Bible was made. We have, therefore, the same authority for Purgatory as we have for Sunday.” (Martin J. Scott, Things Catholics Are Asked About, 1927 edition, p. 136.)

*Sunday is our mark or authority*...the church is above the Bible, and this transference of Sabbath observance is proof of that fact.” (Catholic Record of London, Ontario, September 1, 1923.)

  When the Protestants complain about other things that the Catholics do which are not rooted in the bible, they remind them that they are also guilty for keeping Sunday, because Sunday is their law and not the law of the bible.

"From this we may understand how great is *the authority of the church in interpreting or explaining to us the commandments of God - an authority which is acknowledged by the universal practice of the whole Christian world, even of those sects which profess to take the holy Scriptures as their sole rule of faith, since they observe as the day of rest not the seventh day of the week demanded by the Bible, but the first day. Which we know is to be kept holy, only from the tradition and teaching of the Catholic church*.” (Henry Gibson, Catechism Made Easy, #2, 9th edition, vol. 1, p. 341-342)

*WHY SUN-DAY LAW WILL BE ACCEPTED BY MANY PEOPLE*

We look at a Sunday Law as an impossible task to achieve by the world  Elites, but the whole world is under the influence of Satan, he does what he wants to, but only when God allows it, because, no matter what, God is still in charge of rhe affairs of rhe world. 

The whole world worship the Sun/Baal, directly or indirectly. The Sun has been worshipped from the ancient times, we can see that in the lives of Israelites they couldn't resist Baal worship They couldn't resist the worship of Baal and Asherah (or Ashtoreth). God had commanded Israel not to worship idols (Exodus 20:3; Deuteronomy 5:7) 

 They were warned to avoid practices that might be construed as pagan worship rites (Leviticus 20:23; 2 Kings 17:15;  2 Kings 23: 4-5, Ezekiel 11:12). 

the worship of Baal and Asherah became a plague upon the Israelites and was a perennial problem. Baal, also known as the sun god or the storm god, is the name of the supreme male deity worshiped by ancient Phoenicians and Canaanites. Asherah, the moon goddess, was the principal female deity worshipped by ancient Syrians, Phoenicians, and Canaanites. 

Have we noticed that when ever we see Baal mentioned in the bible you would also find Ashtoreth, worship of heavenly bodies: the stars, sun and moon and we would also find sodomy there too( homosexuality) and temple prostitutes?.

"And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; *them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets*, *and to all the host of heaven*" ( 2 Kings 23:5)

*And he brought out the grove from the house of the Lord*, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.

7 *And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the Lord*, where the women wove hangings.

 worship of Baal and Asherah became a plague upon the Israelites and was a perennial problem. Baal, also known as the sun god or the storm god, is the name of the supreme male deity worshiped by ancient Phoenicians and Canaanites. Asherah, the moon goddess, was the principal female deity worshipped by ancient Syrians, Phoenicians, and Canaanites. 

Have we noticed that when ever we see Baal mentioned in the bible you would also find Ashtoreth, worship of heavenly bodies: the stars, sun and moon and we would also find sodomy there too( homosexuality) and temple prostitutes. Thesame moon goddess  is called the *queen of heaven* which the children of Israel worshipped,  burnt incense to her and made buns(cakes)  for.

They weeped for her son Tammuz in Ezekiel 8:14

In Jeremiah 7:18: The children gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the *women knead the dough and make cakes of bread for the Queen of Heaven*. They pour out drink offerings to other gods to provoke me to anger.

*So we see Homosexuality, Sun worship, prostitution, worship of the moon or nature worship, children's sacrifice, murder* etc..

Are all these happening in the world today?

They have even passed laws which recognizes the homosexuals (sodomy) this is the same reason why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. They have been doing it secretly, in their secret places, on individual level, but they decided to make it public and even pass it Into law.( National apostasy)

If you notice how God dealt with the Israelites, it is when their cup was full that he acted..when there is a National apostasy as the world is doing today, they have started that National apostasy by legalizing Gay marriage, in some countries gay priests. They have legalized murder/children's sacrifice(abortion)


Remember the sacrifices of children was associated with the worship of Baal/molech or the sun god. They have openly legalized the sacrificing of children to their ancient god. The other day we saw the ancient pagan Molech in the Vatican, and people were wondering.  The other day we talked about Pope Francis openly bowed to the figurine (pachama ) nature worship, goddess of fertility..all these abominations done in the House of God.

What is left?

The legalization of the Sun worship.

Notice how it's happening gradually?

The final and last apostasy would be the National Sunday law.

 Notice why God destroyed the Israelites๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿฝ

Their iniquities was full to the brim, and the Lord made them drink from his wrath.

Ezekiel 8:5-10

Then said he unto me, Son of man, lift up thine eyes now the way toward the north. So I lifted up mine eyes the way toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy in the entry.

6 *He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary*? but turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations.

7 And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

8 Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

9 And he said unto me, Go in, and behold the wicked abominations that they do here.

10 *So I went in and saw; and behold every form of creeping things, and abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, pourtrayed upon the wall round about*.

Notice,  here again, Ezekiel was given a vision of the abominations that are done in HIS TEMPLE right inside the Temple. Do we see these things happening today?


God says "Thou shall not make any graven images or bow down to them"  But these were all in the temple.

Ezekiel  8:13-16

13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see *greater abominations* that they do.

14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the Lord's house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat *women weeping for Tammuz*.

15 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt *see greater abominations than these*.

16 And he brought me into the inner court of the Lord's house, and, behold, *at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, *with their backs toward the temple of the Lord, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east*.

So, we see? Thesame way they brought in groves ( plants, shrubs, trees etc..) into the house of God, that's how they worshipped the Sun, right in the temple. 

Has sun worship disappeared today? No, just modernized. They have committed all the apsostacy, the only thing that is left, is to pass the SUNDAY law and make it a mandatory law.. By so doing,  people would be forced to worship the very ancient pagan sun god. (Baal)


 The Prime Minister of India was right after all, when he said that the sun was worshipped across the globe for over thousands of years, and many still worship the sun today, (knowingly or unknowingly) in his meeting with the French Prime Minister, at the first conference of the International Solar Alliance.( ISA)

"Speaking at the conference, which India co-hosted with France, the Prime Minister also referred to the Vedas. *For millions of years, the sun has been giving light and life to the world. From Japan to Peru, France to Rome, Egypt and the eastern civilization –the sun has been given utmost importance*,” he said.

"*But in Indian viewpoint, for thousands of years, the sun has been the unparalled centre. In India, the vedas for thousands of years, have considered the sun the soul of the world. In India, the sun is considered the nourisher. Now that we are looking for a way to deal with the challenge of climate change, we have to look back at ancient view of balance and perspective*,” he added.


Can we see their strategy that they want to use to get us into worshipping the Sun? under the disguise of Climate change?

"Swaraj used five Sanskrit names for the *Sun god” while speaking of India’s push for solar energy. “I would like to bow before the Sun God and address him by five different names in Sanskrit, ‘Om Suriyaya namaha, om Adityaya Namaha, om Dinkaraya namaha, om Divakaraya namaha, om Bhaskarya namaha’…this means *Oh Sun God, we bow before you, you illuminate the external and the internal world and you are the best to be adored and worshipped*. May you bless us…, he said, with folded hands* "

Can we see what happened here?

He worshipped the Sun god, and this is the Prime Minister of India, and he was right there with Macron, the French Prime Minister. This is it; this is their secret agenda about their so called climate change, to get the masses worship the Sun god.

Remember, this same India easily bought the idea of shutting down everything on Sundays; Which has already commenced from July 2020

Do we see the convergence?

*Japan prime minister involved in an ancient  sun ritual*

*Japan's new Emperor Naruhito will take part in a ritual feast with a sun goddess on Thursday night as part of a centuries-old ceremony to celebrate his ascension to the throne*. But not everyone is on board with the ritual, which has been *criticized for violating the constitutional separation of religion and state*

Like I said before the ancient Sun worship has not changed; but only modernized. the whole world is under the influence of sun worship, (Baal Worship) just like in the ancient times.

The eastern religion worshipped the sun,  The ancient world worshipped  the sun..just like Prime Minister Mohdi said, no place on earth has escaped the sun and moon worship, fertility goddess etc.. That is why it will be easier for them to accept  this.

He mentioned the whole  EASTERN CIVILISATION, ROME, FRANCE, JAPAN, PERU, INDIA, AND EGYPT...

Ancient Rome also worshipped the sun, and when they embraced Christianity,  they had to merge both Christianity and their pagan cultures..claiming that they have consecrated those pagan practices.  That is why in their Churches you find paintings of the Sun and astronomical symbols..

 *In various parts of Europe, many churches and cathedrals have had astronomical features incorporated into them. One of the most visible of these is the meridian line. This was a device that enabled the astronomers of the time to measure precisely the progress of the Sun throughout the year. In other words, such cathedrals and churches in which meridian lines are found are in effect solar observatories. Some examples of places where meridian lines can be found include the Basilica of San Petronio in Bologna (Italy), the Basilica of Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri in Rome (Italy), the cloister of Durham Cathedral in Durham (England), and the Church of Saint-Sulpice in Paris*" (France).


Why on earth should such a thing like this be seen in the church of God?

"Moreover, in St. Peter’s Square, there is a wheel within a wheel, which is a counterfeit of the mobile throne of God, as described by the prophet Ezekiel. As a counterfeit, it represents the throne of the Dragon who gives the Beast his seat and great authority. In the center of the square is an obelisk, a phallic symbol dedicated to the worship of the sun. The Vatican is built on the hill where the temple of Janus the sun god stood. Alongside St. John’s Lateran, which is the church where the Pope is crowned and where he speaks infallibly, is the obelisk of Tutmoses III, which was dedicated to Reharakti, the sun god".

 Look at this image very well, you can see the all seeing eye of Horus, the Egyptian  sun god.You can also see the sun Rays...The world is so invol6in sun worship that they do not even know about it

*Yoga A Form Of Sun Worship*

*The Sun Salutation, or Surya Namaskara (SOOR-yuh nah-muh-SKAR-uh), is a series of poses performed in a sequence to create a flow of movement. ... Sun Salutations build heat in the body and are often used as warm-up sequences for a yoga practice*.  And this is what CNN promote almost every day, just like they promote Climate change, the corona virus and the vaccine...

Remember we discussed how they make use of the media to promote their agenda? Many people are getting involved in yoga today, not knowing what is behind it.


The devil has really polluted the whole world, but God's children will be strong and shall do exploits,  they will not be involved in any of these Babylonian practices.  Amen.
